As Darren walked past the beehive of students in the hallway, an intense scent hit him. He looked around and immediately saw her - a beautiful brown-haired girl rolling her eyes as two boys seemed to be arguing with each other. He felt everyone's attention drawn to him so he immediately looked away. 

But Darren could still feel her eyes glued to him. He couldn't believe how exhilarating it felt to be so close to her but he knew he had to walk past her. 

Though he didn't want anything crazy happening, he couldn't understand how her scent mesmerized him so much, it's not like he's a wolf that has met his mate so why then did it feel exactly like that? and how exactly did he catch her scent? He wondered.

He made a swift turn to his left and entered the class. Trying to compose himself as he sat down. The bell rang signifying the start of classes and Darren closed his ears with his hands. His senses had been off lately, hearing things that were said miles away even! 

" You have to try and focus on one thing Darren, it'll help" his sister Meredith said, she'd been following him closely, trying to keep an eye on him. They were witch variants ( she a witch and he a warlock) and had to keep a very low profile and Darren losing composure now and then wasn't going to help matters.

Darren tried the best he could to focus on one sound, but everyone's voice sounded so aggravating, he was going to have an episode, probably blow up all the bulbs in the school or worse send a group of snakes from the woods into the class like he did at their last school he attended in Wales.

He couldn't help it, lightbulbs were already starting to blink and Meredith knew that yelling his name would only make things worse so she just silently hoped that he would gain control.

" I told you, I wasn't checking him out okay Ricky? I was just looking at him." A female voice said and everything suddenly went still as she laughed. Meredith looked at Darren and found that he was no longer on the brink of an episode but was listening closely to something and whatever it was, it calmed him.

Darren's heart stopped racing fast as he listened to her, he could tell she was far away but he could hear her. She seemed to be getting closer and closer and for a moment it seemed like time had stopped. He closed his eyes for a minute and that's when Meredith tapped him, making him aware of his surrounding. 

He had only listened to her soothing voice for a minute but it seemed as though it took longer than that because the once empty class was now filled with students who were all peering at him.

" What's your name, young man?" A man who probably was in his mid-twenties and was dressed in a black suit asked.

Darren looked at the board, saw " Math" written on it, and groaned in frustration. " I can't believe I'm doing this again" he whispered to Meredith who just chuckled.

" Pardon? I didn't quite catch that" the man asked.

" I'm Darren," he said with a slight grunt, and girls in front of him swooned and giggled at him, he almost regretted not dressing in a manner that would repulse the girls. He didn't care about the girls though, he could feel her eyes on him and that sent chills down his spine.

" Easy there little guy" Meredith said behind him, since they were very close siblings, she could sense his excitement sometimes.

" Stay out of my head," he said and Meredith giggled before she looked at Sharlynn and said, " she's adorable", making Darren smirk as the man wrote something on the board.

" Alright Darren, you look like you're gonna be good in math," The man said enthusiastically as he turned to face him and the class yelled " not!", Darren just Chuckled saying, " What they said" causing another round of choked-back laughter, mostly giggles from the girls and the man rolled his eyes. 

" You're all children. Borrow a leaf from Sharlynn, she's not always good at all subjects but she excels in the most important ones, isn't that right Sharlynn?" The man said and she just covered her face while Ricky-Shawn said, " aww she's shy, I'll answer for her; ' yes Mr. Harold, I'm good at everything and smarter than you " he said in a higher pitch causing rounds of laughter while Sharlynn frowned at him.

Mr. Harold just stared blankly and said, " detention for you Ricky-Shawn, and anyone else who laughs will join him" 

" Detention with you rocks, I'll take it anytime" Ricky-Shawn muttered, folding his arms as he crosses his legs on his desk. 

" That'll leg action you got going on there will take you to the principal's office Shawn," Mr. Harold said with a very angry look on his face. 

Just then, The silver-haired boy entered the class and Sharlynn felt that intense cold again, she knew it had to be because of him. He bumped into the teacher and said, " Oh I'm sorry I'm late," then he turned to the class and smiled before saying" Hey guys who missed me?!"

When no one acknowledged him, he just grinned, "Okay, that's cool" he said without a sign of embarrassment. He sat down and smiled at Sharlynn who immediately looked away before he brought out his books and said, " Math? I LOVE math!" making everyone roll their eyes.

" Great, the overexcited douche is back" Kayla commented and some scoffed. They didn't like Tom and he clearly didn't care. 

After the close of school, Dean and Sharlynn were taking a walk to his truck when Ricky-Shawn stopped them and told her to get in his car. 

Surprisingly, Dean didn't argue with him. He just opened the car and gestured to her to get in. Almost immediately an ambulance drove into the school premises and Sharlynn came out of the car, watching as three bodies were brought of the school, one of which was Kayla. 

 

She looked at Dean and Ricky-Shawn, expecting them to rush to Kayla's body but was shocked to find them just looking at each other knowingly. " Guys that's Kayla!" She shrieked and they both suddenly noticed that she wasn't in the car. 

" Get in the car Sharlynn it isn't safe!" Dean yelled as he carried her in and Ricky-Shawn drove off. They had to protect her at all cost because there's a new vampire in town, and it definitely wasn't the Saunders. They may be ruthless when they feed but they were never this clumsy.

  • Mate to three, fated to one   83

    Seventeen years later In seventeen years, Hollow hills blossomed immensely and turned into a very busy city with several tourist attractions - as Ricky-Shawn the new Mayor promised. Ricky-Shawn did not remember anything about being Varris' descendants. He was just busy doing what he knew how to do best - be a tough leader. Dean and Kayla still lead their pack and got married formally just to please Kayla's parents. With the help of Kyle and Sharlynn, their pack multiplied but they still kept their pact with Ricky-Shawn's father in order to keep their existence hidden. It was the seventeenth year of Dean's reign and he had thrown a lavish party to welcome all guests from far and near that wished to celebrate with him. The second that Kyle and Sharlynn arrived with new recruits, Dean arranged for them to be taken to guest rooms to rest and ordered them to come for the banquet at night. When the time came for the banquet, Kyle and Dean were astonished by the type of song being playe

    Sharlynn's POV" Aliyah, calm down!" I said when she kept glaring at me with this vicious look in her eyes." It's so tiresome to talk to your brothers. You've always known how hard it is for me to do that right? But today, your brother Jamie said something interesting about you being saddled with the duty to save one of the three families. Oh and he told me so many things, like he thinks they all died and no one was survived.At first, I thought. Maybe none of them were good enough to be saved but I'm trying to get milk from the fridge so that I can also thank you for your hospitality and there you are having sex with the same guy I thought you said wasn't good enough."" Aliyah wait," I said but she wouldn't let me speak, " just shut up! You could've chosen to save Tom, why didn't you? You know that I was carrying his child yet you did nothing to help him!" She lashed out at me and I sighed knowing that Jamie was responsible for this. He was

    Sharlynn's POV " What is it? Why are you looking at me like that?" He asked as he smiled at me. Instantly I felt guilty because I knew he must've been upset or outraged at me for what I did to him. " Lynn...are you... okay?" He asked with a nervous smile and I gulped. " Is this real?" I asked instead as I got up from my bed. His eyes followed my movement the entire time. " I don't know, I've been watching you sleep as I always do since forever. This is the first time that you've actually woken up and said something to me." He said. " What is going on?" I asked but he seemed every bit as confused as I was. " Hey, you're starting to creep me out. Stop looking at me like that." He said and I covered my face with my palms. " Oh... wait. I think I get it, it's all coming back now." He said, his voice sounded low and kind of dull so I looked at him, wondering why his voice was like that. " She made you

    Sharlynn's POV " I'm tired Lynn. There's nothing here." Dean said as he sat down looking dejected while scanning through all the things we had checked in his grand mother's room. " You can't give up Dean, let's keep looking. Maybe it's not even in her room!" I said still trying to seem enthusiastic even though I was already tired as well. " I'm sure she died with the spell, besides even if we see the spell how do we know if there is a way to undo it huh?" He asked and I glared at him. " This is your Luna AND your child we're talking about here. At least have some faith." I said and teleported both of us into Kyle's room. " Fuck no! I'm not doing this!" Dean said when he realized where we were. " Whatever emotions are going through your head just shut it out. You're here to find a way to help your family - the one you now have." I said and immediately went through Kyle's drawer. " Was it that

    Sharlynn's POV I got to the pack and was told to spend the night at the Alpha quarters because Dean had gotten tired of waiting for me so he went to bed. " I'm sorry, I don't follow!" I said in protest. " I'm sorry, he had a rethink. He said you should rest here tonight and you two will talk in the morning. He also asked me to beg you with this." The elder man who has broke the terrible news about Dean not being available said. " A daisy? Ugh! That's so last year. This doesn't work on me anymore! I'm going home." I grumbled but the man just watched me without saying a word but I knew that in his heart he was probably judging me, not like I cared anyway. " Fine... Where am I to sleep?" I asked and he said, " in the cabin next to the late Alpha's cabin." " But that particularly cabin is creepy" " So creepy" Allen confirmed. " See?" I said as I gestured at Allen who just smiled sheepishly and left me ther

    Sharlynn's POVLater that night, I took Aliyah to my house because my mom called and said that they had gone home and were escorted by some of Dean's men.I was a little skeptical about Aliyah coming with us but she had no where else to go and it seemed like my obligation to take care of her." Hey Lynn!" Freddie said excitedly before he ran off to go meet my dad no doubt. I knew that I would have a lot of explaining to do when we got there but... I just couldn't lie to anyone else." Mom, Dad, I brought a friend." I said as I entered the house and pulled a very reluctant Aliyah inside." Really who did you-" my mom was saying but stopped immediately she saw Aliyah." Oh my God... You're alive!" She said and I smiled when I saw how shocked she was that Aliyah was actually not dead. I remembered how she told me I was crazy and how I vowed to prove to her that vampires really did exist. Maybe I didn't really do that or
