She took her hand from his and hugged herself. It was very cold out there and as always, she had forgotten to go out with her sweater. Clarence immediately pulled off his own and draped it over her shoulders.

“You're kind, funny, sweet, stubborn, and not swayed by public opinions. You're beautiful and talented. You're not just someone I like being around, you're someone I can't imagine being without.” He replied to her question.

Ayra grabbed the jacket like her life depended on it.

“I’ll see you tomorrow?” She said, still unsure if she’d see him.

“Sleep tight, babe.” Before he could hold himself, he took her lips in his, slowly and passionately kissing her. She didn’t resist, she didn’t push him away. She just melted away, not because he kissed her but because it reminded her of the first time she and Devin kissed.

When was she ever going to forget about him?

He finally let her go and turned his back to leave. Ayra approached the porch, staggering a little bit because of the col

    Ayra couldn’t understand Devin's anger concerning money and her job. He wasn’t supposed to care what she did or how she did it. They were supposed to be strangers who wouldn’t dream of walking on the same path. She couldn’t deny that her heart dropped to her stomach when she saw how devastatingly handsome he looked. Even after he had left, his voice continued ringing in her head. “I want you to quit that job and stay home. If you need anything, call me.” He sounded so romantic and almost possessive. But she knew better than to fall for it. He had a girlfriend now, one whom he had probably turned over a million times..She shook her head and slapped her cheeks with both palms. “I need a boyfriend.” She told herself. As if the universe heard her, Clarence walked through the door and when he saw Ayra, he flashed a charming smile.“Oh, I want to hold that man and kiss him all night long.” Jane, her colleague, said dreamily and almost slipped because her focus was on Clarence. “Right?

    The calm in the storm… that was the perfect way to explain Ayra's life. After her closure with Devin, they started avoiding each other like the plague. Whenever she went to morning exercises, they never spoke. Nobody truly knew what was going through their heads, not even Selene. “Why don't you try giving love a chance?” Selene brought up the topic one early morning while they were jogging around the premises of the training arena. “Why do I need to do that? Besides, nobody likes me.” She said dismissively and hoped she’d drop it, but knowing Selene, that was just the beginning. “Are you blind or something? Have you seen the eyes Clarence looks at you with? They’re screaming I WANT YOU!” She exclaimed and giggled, nudging her playfully. Ayra's eyes wandered around and caught Clarence staring at her. He was hot and girls were fawning all around him but her past situationship still had her feeling down. She and Devin were now like strangers. It had been like three weeks sinc

    The word 'girlfriend' burned her throat like strong alcohol.Her gaze on Devin was intense, almost hostile. She only looked away after she had said her mind and after the prayers, they started eating. All focus was pushed to Devin and his new girlfriend. Questions about how they met and how they got together and their plans, as though they were already getting married. Every part of the conversation burned Ayra to a crisp. She thought she could stand them till dinner was over but she had already had enough. She decided to tune herself out. "So, what will you do if you eventually find your mates? The mate bond is...eh...complex." Killian asked. Isla yawned and wished the dinner would just end. Like Ayra, she wasn't interested in her brother or his girlfriend. "I believe we're meant to be. If we weren't, we'd have each found our mates by now. Right, Devin?" She sweetly nudged him and he nodded curtly. Satisfied with their answers, Killian shifted to Isla. "How about you, Isla? How's

    It had already been two weeks since Devin last came home. He would call his father and stepmother and Isla too but never for once in those two weeks did he call or text Ayra. She was heartbroken and distorted for those two weeks. She would always stare at her phone or the door, waiting for when he would show up but he never did. She didn’t need a soothsayer to tell her she had been dumped. After everything, she ended up being a ‘fuck'. For all she knew, he could have been sleeping with several girls for those two weeks. Ayra felt used and wasted. She regretted everything that had transpired between them and wished she could turn back the hands of time. She was reliving a terrible experience and it haunted her even at night. She had lost the ability to sleep and was depending on sleep-inducing drugs. She even stopped reading because they reminded her of some bitter memories. She wished she could have the past three weeks erased from her head. Because she was gradually losing it.Af

    “And we are home.” Ayra scurried out of the car and ran to the house, hoping she’d run into her mother. She had missed her calls throughout the trip and couldn’t wait to see her. Unfortunately, Helen was not back from work. Nobody was home. She was disappointed but it didn’t last long because Devin was there. While he helped her take her bag upstairs, she trailed behind him, admiring his masculine features. Tall, broad-shouldered, and full of muscle. Their trip was nothing short of exceptional, filled with several twists and turns, but she was glad they made it back, alive and healthy. And definitely, more than step-siblings. “It’s good to be back.” She said and stylishly closed the door after Devin had entered. “Yeah…” He drawled. “Now, I've got to go see the Alpha.” He said tiredly. He wanted to rest but this was also important. He could rest all he wanted later. “Do you have to?” She whined and poked his chest before crossing her arms around his neck. “Nobody's home right n
