When we stepped out of the restaurant, I heaved a deep sigh and looked over the busy streets. The air smelled faintly of sweet pastries from a nearby cafe and car exhaust from the busy road. But all I felt was an ache from Ryan's betrayal.

I gently hugged my arms around myself as we walked down the sidewalk while still trying to forget the heartbreaking scene that Regina and Ryan's celebration had left in my chest.

"Ugh. I'm sorry, I gotta go, guys,” Jason uttered while slowing down his pace. "I promised one of my mentors that I would assist with the med club's supply audit today. I totally forgot."

I just gave him a tired smile. "It's okay, Jason. Thanks for the lunch. And for being there."

He reached over and ruffled my hair playfully. "Always, pumpkin. You better get home safe, alright?"

"I will."

After a few seconds when Jason left, Lily's phone also rang. She groaned the moment she saw the caller ID. "Damn girl, it’s Coach Anna. She's gonna kill me if I'm late again. We have a m

    When Jason and I finally got home that evening, and I was just about to say something to Jason when I noticed them. Tyler and Ethan.Both of them were seated in the living room, one scrolling through his phone and the other glancing through papers on the coffee table. But the moment they looked up and saw us walk in together, the atmosphere shifted.Tyler's gaze met mine for half a second, it was just a flicker and then dropped back to his phone like I wasn't even there.Ethan didn't even bother to glance my way.Jason, bless his soul, tried to act normal. "Hey," he said while setting the paper bag with our leftovers on the counter. "We brought food if you guys haven't eaten yet."No answer.Jason frowned slightly. "Tyler? Ethan?"Still nothing.My smile faded, and I gently excused myself. "I'll just go to my room."Jason turned to me while his expression was apologetic, but I didn't wait to hear what he would say. I hastily walked down the hall, closed the door behind me, and leaned

    "You have to go to the library with me. Now," Lily uttered. Her tone was unusually urgent.I raised an eyebrow. "The library? Why?""I don't know," she muttered while already pulling me toward the path. "I feel like I've seen that mark before. Maybe in a book or something my mom showed me. We might find something if we check the school archives, girl."I didn't argue.Part of me didn't want to chase down the mystery, not today, not when I already felt emotionally exhausted and had another major exam in less than an hour. But a larger part of me needed to understand. I needed to know why both Ethan and Tyler reacted so strongly. I needed to know what made my birthmark so strange.When we arrived at the library, I heaved a deep sigh. Lily and I might probably find something here today and I didn’t know if I would be glad or scared. Either way, I needed to do this.Lily walked over to the far section of the second floor, where the oldest books were stacked. Some dusty history books, loc

    The next morning, I gently blinked my eyes open slowly, but after a few seconds, I remembered what happened between Tyler and me and the weight in my chest hadn't lifted with the dawn.I sighed.Last night's memory clung to me like a cold mist. Tyler's eyes, the way he pushed me against the wall with the look of confusion and guilt on his face when he touched my mark. For a few moments, he didn't feel like Tyler anymore. He reminded me of Ethan who was cold, distant, and fierce. And that scared me, because I knew Tyler. He wasn't supposed to be like that. He was soft, patient, always smiling at me like I was a little sunbeam that somehow roamed into their world.But something changed.I gently sat up in bed and rubbed my temples. No. I didn't want to stick around on it. Not now. It was the first day of final exams. I needed to start it right. I needed to do something normal, something comforting. Maybe... A good breakfast?I immediately lurched out of bed and headed to the kitchen. I

    The clinking of utensils, the gentle sound of classical music playing in the background, and the low, golden lighting made the restaurant feel like something out of a dream. Somehow, I had ended up seated beside Marianne Blackstone, the current Luna of their pack and I couldn't believe how easy she was to talk to."And you're a Biology major, right, Sarah?" she asked as she sipped her wine."Yes, ma'am," I replied while feeling a little nervous. "I mean, yes, Marianne. Sorry, I keep forgetting."She faintly laughed. "You're too polite, dear. But I like that. So, what are your plans for the summer? Any big goals before the next semester begins?"I smiled. "Honestly? I haven't thought much about it yet. But with this new student council position, I think I'll be spending most of it preparing for the upcoming school year. Organizing events, planning orientations, helping with enrollment duties... It's going to be busy, I guess."Jason chimed in from across the table while popping a piece

    While I was walking on my way back to the condo, I just hugged my arms to my chest while my mind was still caught in the limbo of two conflicting emotions inside me which was joy and sadness. I had just been placed into the student council. The student council. I should've been overjoyed. It was a big deal. And yet, that accomplishment was dimmed, covered by the coldness in Ethan's voice and the distance in his eyes. "Stay away from me." Those words repeated in my head over and over, until they started to conceal the pride I felt earlier. Still, I held my chin up and pushed the thoughts away as I reached the condo door. When I arrived inside, I was greeted by the cozy atmosphere of the living room and the sound of someone tapping away on a phone. It was Tyler and he was lounging on the couch while legs stretched out and a lazy smile on his face. He looked up the second I closed the door behind me. "Well, well, look who it is." He grinned. "Congratulations, Miss Assistant Secretar
