Nivia POV.

"What?" Mateo and Justin both blinked, looking surprised.

"What did you just say?" Justin asked.

"I choose none," I repeated, the words leaving my lips in a rush.

Shocked gasps echoed around the crowd.

I was torn and at a loss on who to choose, so I decided to plead the fifth. To remove myself from this complex situation.

It was the safest choice.

How could I betray my friend, the only one who has always stood by me, and choose another?

It felt wrong.

Also, I couldn't publicly reject Justin's claim on me for Mateo. That would be setting myself up for a difficult life in the pack. He was, after all, the Alpha's son and the next Alpha of our pack.

Moreover, I still had butterflies in my stomach when I looked at him.

I felt Mateo's grip loosen around my wrist as I saw his gaze falter with a sense of disappointment.

Justin's grip still remained firm but I saw his jaw slacken with disbelief. As though he could not believe that I could reject him.

  • Moonchild; The Rise Of the Lycans   Chapter 43: Finder's Keepers

    Claire POV.If wishes were horses, beggars would ride.I smirked to myself as I stretched out my legs, relaxing into the office chair in the Principal's office.I felt so content with myself, knowing that I'd denied Nivia of what she desperately wanted. The pathetic look on her face was priceless as I gave her a taste of her own medicine.Now she knew how it felt for something that was almost yours to be ripped away from you. I had no idea if she'd really seen the ball first, and honestly, I didn't care. I sure as hell didn't give a rat's ass about the reward. However, I was going to keep the price away from her as long as she wanted it; that was my way of repaying her.I wish I could cause her more pain, but for now, I was satisfied with this small feat. Going forward, I would use every opportunity I had to make her regret ever being mated to Justin.She was a greedy, little nobody. Clinging to two mates when others didn't even have one.I hissed and stomped my feet on the groun

  • Moonchild; The Rise Of the Lycans   Chapter 42: Happy Birthday II

    Nivia POV.With my eyes still fixed on the ball, I stretched forth my hand, wanting to hold it.But as my hand made contact with it, I felt a jolt of electricity spark through me and instantly, everywhere around me changed.I saw myself standing on a vast, desolate field, surrounded by nothing but dry twigs and swirling dust. The place was barren and I was on a small hill.I gazed around shocked.Where was I?How did I get here?Above, the sky was red with a blood crescent moon, and in the distance ahead, I saw a battle raging.The metallic smell of blood filled the atmosphere, and I could hear loud screams and wails resounding in the air.People were fighting each other. Heads were being torn from shoulders, and hearts were being ripped from bodies.In the red sky, crows and vultures swarm around, floating over the battlefield below.Once a body dropped to the ground, they dived low, to feast on the fresh flesh, peeking at the eyes and tearing at the skin."Don't just stand there," S

  • Moonchild; The Rise Of the Lycans   Chapter 41: Happy Birthday

    Nivia POV.I was still trying to process the sudden insight that I'd caught a glimpse of the future, when Mateo reappeared, returning from wherever he'd vanished to last night."Where have you been?" I demanded, while trying to catch my breath.I couldn't explain what was going on, but one thing I was sure of was that, something out of the ordinary was happening to me. But I didn't know what it was exactly."I've been around," he said casually."No, where were you really? You didn't come back to the camp last night," I clarified.He shrugged his shoulder, "Don't worry about me," he said, and brought out something he had been holding behind his back. "Today is for you," he mumbled and handed me a bunch of freshly cut flowers. "Happy birthday, Nivia," he bent low to my neck and placed a kiss on my neck. At the contact, I froze and the fine hairs on my neck stood. The kiss was supposed to feel innocent, but instead of instantly letting go like he usually does, he let his lips linger th

  • Moonchild; The Rise Of the Lycans   Chapter 40: Rain

    Nivia POV.It was 6 a.m. the next morning when I stirred awake.I lay on the bed for a few minutes trying to remember where I was.The camp sleeping bag was small and tight. I only managed to sleep last night because I was very exhausted.After Mateo stormed out of the game, it had come to a close.Justin insisted that we set up our camp sleeping bags and retire for the night.Which we all did.Rachel and I shared a sleeping bag while the rest paired up with themselves in twos.Claire slept with Sonia, Austin and Suzanne paired up, Justin and Kyle opted to sleep together while David was left to pair with Mateo."No funny business," Kyle jokingly said to Austin."I wouldn't let him even if he wanted to," Suzanne retorted."Oh yeah, don't make me turn on my charm," Austin playfully clapped back.We all laughed and crawled into our tents.However, before I went to sleep, I didn't hear Mateo return.The day was now breaking, and I didn't know if he had come back last night.I suddenly fe

  • Moonchild; The Rise Of the Lycans   Chapter 39: Loki II

    Mateo POV."I kept telling you all those times to sleep with her, but you never listened. You just wanted to hang around her as a friend," Loki reprimanded me.As usual, my wolf was blaming me for everything.When I met Nivia we were only fifteen, yet he kept clamouring for me to claim her.He was of the opinion that we should make haste while the sun shines.Now, seeing Justin wriggle his way into my relationship, made me see the sense in his logic.But the past was the past."I didn't want to pressure her into sex that early," I tried to defend myself."She would have fucked us if only you showed some interest. You were too busy being a nerd, you fucking idiot," he accused me."How do you know she would have agreed to sleep with us?" I demanded."Because she liked you from the start, when you two met. But you never made a move, so she friend-zoned you and moved on to Justin," he explained."And you know that how?" I grimaced."I understand women better than you, you dumb fuck!" he y

  • Moonchild; The Rise Of the Lycans   Chapter 38: Loki

    Mateo POV.I couldn't take it anymore.I couldn't sit there and watch her kiss another guy.I was trying my best to be understanding, and not be a jealous friend.But I just couldn't take it anymore.The blood boiled in my veins and my heart hammered in my ears.I had to leave there or my might do something nasty, like attack Justin. And this time around, I wouldn't show restraint. I'll attack him with all my strength and bite out his jugular, while standing back to watch as the blood bubbled in his mouth.I was festering with so much anger that my imagination was running wild.So I walked a few meters away from the camp area, and scaled up the next available tree.Sitting on a large branch, I tried to suppress my anger, and the instinct begging me to kill and murder.Justin was really pushing his limits with me and one day, very soon, I would be forced to show him my true nature."You're such a weakling," my wolf, Loki sneered within me."Quit insulting me, Loki."All through the d
