LARA's POV

The beast towers over me.

This is it, a voice whispers inside me. This is how you die. You never got that law degree or visited home to see your parents.

My vision begin to blur as he presses harder on me.

And then—

Thwip... a small hiss, like air escaping a balloon.

The wolf jerks, muscles spasming. His eyes go wide, then glassy. His body sways, before collapsing beside me.

My heart races, limbs shaking. I want to scream, but it's trapped in my throat. What in the world just happened? It takes a second before I realize I'm no longer pinned. That I’m still alive.

And standing over me…

Is David.

I see a tranquilizer gun in his hand and he bends to carry me in his arms. "Someone, get a chair," he orders.

He sits me in a comfortable chair, then kneels beside me. "Are you hurt?" he asks gently.

"N-No. I’m okay."

My voice is shaking more than it should.

"You’re sure?"

Not replying, I glance at the tranquilized werewolf. As it turns back to its human form, I watch,

  • Mate me at Hollywood (18+)   90. Poison, poison!

    LEONARDO's POV"I left to go fetch some firewood. When I came back, I found them like this," Mateo explains, gesturing around the tents.The unmoving bodies of my pack members lay scattered everywhere. Like the horrid aftermath of a vicious battle."How on earth did... " I almost growl at Mateo, then stop myself.I shouldn't take my anger out on him. This isn't his fault. The responsibility of protecting our pack members falls on me, and me alone. I should have been here with my pack. Packs stick together. The Alpha doesn't go off to the city of stars.But Mateo already feels enough guilt to last a lifetime."I fucked up, Leo." His voice cracks with unmistakable regret. "You left me in charge. And this happened.""No, this is all on me."Lara's entrance is a picture of fear and shock, her face softening slightly as she sees me. "Don't beat yourself up, Knight. If it's anyone's fault, it's mine — for having such heartless parents.""Since when can kids control who brings them into the

    "Diego and Rosa?" he asks."Yeah... Once on family FaceTime, I told them that my boss is weird, never has a single customer, but doesn't seem to care. They must have suspected Silas since then.""Maybe, but they can't poison a bar while they're a thousand miles away in Urueña, can they?"Oh, he doesn't know."My parents have gotten to America. It was my father who broke the window of your fortress, and brought me out."Almost like he's in a trance, David whispers, "But werewolf hunters not supposed to be in this country. It is not—"The shrill of my phone ringing cuts him off. I instantly glance down. Caller ID shows Leo Mío (which means Leo Mine in English.) Cheesing from cheek to cheek, I pick the call and put the phone to my ear. Leonardo's voice breaks in, vibrating with worry. "Lara? Are you alright?""Uh... yeah, I'm okay."As okay as any girl who keeps tripping into werewolf drama.Leo heaves an audible sigh. "You rarely come home late, and it's already 9PM. I've been waiting

  • Mate me at Hollywood (18+)   88. The Wrong Wolf

    If it isn’t mine… then it belongs to someone else. Someone who knows about werewolves, and feels the need to protect themselves.A chill slides down my spine.But in my head, the question gnaws and claws: Who?Agonizing, loud howls shatter the silence. My head whips to the direction of the howls, but it's coming from nowhere and everywhere, from the walls and from the ceiling. It echoes again, louder like a battle cry. Silas' face is stuck between worry and fear. "What is that? Are there werewolves living somewhere this bar?" I ask, concern etched on my forehead.That would be the only explanation for why Silas never wants any real customers. This isn't an actual bar, but a hideout for werewolves."Leave now, Lara," he says, his hand almost pushing my back."You're the one who brought me here when you sent that note." I keep my feet solid on the marble floor."I made a mistake. I thought it was you who hurt the—"Ouuuuwwww. The sound reminds me of an injured, bleeding werewolf."Is

    I square my shoulders in defiance. "I don't have to explain myself to you. I'm leaving, Anita. Don't follow me, or I'll use my pepper spray on you," I say.With that, I turn on my heels, and keep walking until I reach my car. Anita's words keep echoing in my ear like a recurring nightmare. "... obsessed with you... destined together..."Lingering feelings? How could there not be?? It's David, for goodness' sake!With him, life is nothing short of a rollercoaster ride, and not in a good, fun way. But in a is-he-my-rescuer-or-my-jailer way. I'm everything but at peace..What version do I get today? Do I get the man who threatened me into becoming his Luna? Or no. Maybe I get man who showered me with his sweet, genuine words on our wedding day?Do I get the man who tries to teeth-mark me while I sleep without my permission? Or do I get the man who risks his life to heal my dying parents in Urueña? It's a toxic cycle, one that I'm sick of.I jerk the door open and dive into my car. The

  • Mate me at Hollywood (18+)   86. Deadly weapon

    "Armed robbery is a crime. A felony," Professor Cooper says, chalk squealing against the board.Good to know. I wonder if emotional robbery counts, because my last professor stole my sanity before resigning.Now, the new one is standing right where scandal used to breathe. Which makes me wonder: what kind of man takes the job left behind by Professor Norman?The excitement of Las Vegas burned bright and fast, and now it’s over. Leonardo’s back to scripts, cameras, and flashing lights. I’m back to textbooks, lectures, and Lord Denning. Unfortunately, going through a scary experience which has likely traumatized me for life — does not excuse me from missing classes. And after clawing my way out of almost being expelled, flunking out isn’t an option.So here I am. Back in class. Back like I never even disappeared at all... I mindlessly doodles a weirdly shaped body part on my notebook, as a peaceful tune plays in my head. La la la.."Lara Bello."Huh?"Bello!"Shit, that's my name. My

  • Mate me at Hollywood (18+)   85. Vivas Las Vegas

    Paparazzi snap a storm of photos, cameras pop, phones wave in the air, security pushes back, the crowd is asking a million questions; and above it all, I can hear my pulse racing. "Congratulations, Mrs. Knight! Let's see the ring!" most scream.But there's always that one hater who yells, "they'll get divorced in six months. Who wanna bet?"Of course there's always that unhappy hater. Jokes on him though.With the car door open, Leonardo plants a fast kiss on me—like he can’t help himself—before ushering me inside.I sink into the plush leather seat, cheeks warm, lips still tingling. "You couldn’t wait two seconds till the door shut?" I tease.Leo slides in beside me, tugging the door closed with one hand while the other sneaks onto my knee. "Two seconds is a lifetime when you’re sitting right there."I laugh softly, shaking my head. "You're impossible."Leo squeezes my knee, and lowers his voice to a rough whisper. "Impossible not to love."My gaze lingers on him, my fake husband, l
