Serena's POV

"So now that you have successfully disgraced this family and dragged our name to the mud, what do you have to say for yourself?"

I remain silent, gazing at the ground and blinking my eyelids rapidly trying to contain the heavy palpitation of my heart as dad's frightening voice, reaches into my ears, sending tremors through my spine.

The good goddess, knows that I don't really want it to get to this but he is not leaving me any choice at this moment and he is making it so hard right now for me to catch my breath with the dangerous dark aura I am feeling from him.

I take a deep breath and remain silent, still gazing at the ground because I know it is a very wrong move to say anything while he is still angry and trying to trash a situation probably about a mistake being made.

He is pacing all over the entire large sitting room with my mom following him up and down as though trying to calm him down but he is evading her advances.

    Serena's POV At this point in time, I find myself silently praying to the moon goddess that the earth would just open up and swallow me so that I don't get to continue to experience what I am going through right now. argghh!!!! This is freaking crazy and I am having a hard time trying to regain my stance as I make my way through the aisle towards that particularly annoying figure, standing at the far end looking a little bit confusing with a sort of expression I can't fathom in his eyes. " Keep your legs steady and try not to fumble if you don't want me to lash out at you in the public right now. " I can hear that sharp commanding tone directly beside me as Dad keeps my arm stiff and wrapped around his, while leading me towards the altar where Damon is presently standing and waiting for me. Just like mom had already stated and described, this is literally the worst wedding any girl can ever dream of encountering in all her entire existence. This is literal hell and because of the

    Serena's POV I jerk up on the bed, sharply to the loud sound of the most annoying object I detest with every fabric of my being and the moment I look to my left to see the screaming, bedside alarm beside me, I heave a sigh of relief and shake my head, slumping back against the bed. I close my eyes and rake my fingers through my hair, rubbing my palm against my forehead as I try to ease this light headache I am feeling due to the extent at which I was taken by surprise. Jeez. For the goddess sake, my heart is thumping so fucking fast!! I was startled. I shake my head and slowly open my eyes to look at the ceiling, reminiscing about what I had just experienced. I just had the most frightening dream I can ever imagine in my life. I am praying to the good goddess that it is not true. I'm going to ensure that this stupid dream never comes to reality never even in million years. I had the most terrifying dream that I got married to Damon, my fucking nemesis!!!I slap my palm again

  • My Hatred, My Soulmate    13. Work Together On This

    Damon's POV I look at her for a brief minute, trying to organize the thoughts in my head, according to what she just asked me right now. Yeah, I guess I should also ask myself that particular question. But there is actually something different from everything. The funny thing is that I am not pretending. Good goddess knows I am not pretending and the only thing my body is craving for right now is her. Crazy right? As it should be. So fucking crazy.My worst enemy. The very person I swore with my entire being that I was going to detest till the day I joined my ancestors. I have always hated her presence and her kind. Just seeing her breathing usually gets me annoyed. But now, I don't know if I should even take my time to explain what happened because I don't even know how to explain it. I am completely confused. My emotions are in a confused frenzy right now as I continue to look at her, while she gives me that questioning gaze. I guess it has already become so evident to her

  • My Hatred, My Soulmate    14. A Test To Catch Up

    Damon's POV From the tone of the voice I am hearing from the phone, I can tell that that is her werewolf friend, Cassidy. And I damn well know her too much. She is a rogue wolf with no intention of ever fitting into any pack so it is no surprise that she is one of serena's friends. I don't know what to say about Luna because she doesn't really have any bizarre attributes to her but the supernaturals at school already know the three of them as the girls with a lot of weirdness. With a jolt, I realized that she has ended the call and she is about stepping back into their apartment. I quickly step back inside and move briskly away from the entrance before she comes in and looks at me with an expression that tells she wasn't expecting my presence. She looks at me for a while and then rolls her eyes before attempting to walk past me towards the staircase that leads to her room.But I stopped her instantly forcing her to come to a halt directly beside me.She turns her head a little t

    Damon's POV I watch as she instantly stops directly at the bottom of the staircase and it makes me smile.She hesitates for a little while without moving a single bone in her body before shaking her head and slowly turning around to look at me with annoyance evident in her eyes. I smirk and wink at her and notice her face turn beet red. Her pupils are literally screaming the words 'fuck you' to me and it kind of gets me so hyper excited my internal organs are going crazy. Why the hell am I feeling so erratic and hard because of her actions? Good goddess, this is just so crazy and I feel like I'm going insane. This is strange. I want to feel more of that so I guess I just have to keep pestering and getting her angry in any way I can.She looks like she is about to walk over to me and give me a heavy, dirty, slap. But then at the same time she knows she cannot do that because she might annoy the very one person capable of giving her what she wants right now. I'm not going to argue

    Damon's POV I shake my head and dump the plates in the kitchen carelessly before moving around with frustration, cursing and slamming my palm against the wall without realizing that Brian is standing right at the door edge glancing at me and slowly sipping his hot chocolate.“Yeah, you know for someone who is not really feeling attracted to another girl, you really really look bad right now." I quickly turn around to look at him and give him a hard glare. “Can't you just ignore me for at least a few minutes? Must you follow me wherever I go?" " I'm just here to urge you to hurry the fuck up because we have classes in a few minutes and I'm not ready to be delayed by your silly lazy ass or because your dick is craving to fuck a forbidden fruit.”Good goddess. I hate it when he says that. And the fact that he keeps on repeating it is very evident that he is saying it on purpose just to get to me. “For the second time today, shut the fuck up Brian." " But I don't really understand.

    Damon's POV I am losing it by the day and I think I am really going mad. “So can you give me one reason why you haven't prepared yet because I remember leaving you exactly 30 minutes ago? Are you really that slow?" Great. Now she is trying to get me infuriated by calling me a slow tortoise. I chuckle and shake my head before looking back at her as I bite against my bottom lip. “That is not going to work, Serena. That is totally not going to work. I can promise you that. I was still dealing with my breakfast and I knew it wasn't a really hard job to get myself prepared. I didn't want to prepare and get down here and begin to wait for you to find myself sweating all over again so yeah, just chill and wait. I'll be back in 3 minutes." She looks at me with a raised eyebrow, giving me a disbelieving look and I chuckle before giving her a smirk. We haven't exactly been too close for a very long time to actually know each other's special abilities so yeah, she has every reason to be d

    Serena's POVThe vehicle finally comes to a stop, directly at the entrance of crescent moon high international high School, bringing my thoughts back to the presence as I divert my focus from the window of the car back to Damon who is still relaxed in his seat, trying to prepare his school amenities before we step inside. I continue to look at him with a lot of desperate questions ringing through my mind but I don't have the nerve to ask any since we have not been so close to getting to that certain level of communication. I just feel so confused and my brain is currently having a hard time to process what I witnessed back at the mansion when he used a split second to get himself ready for school. That is literally the most crazy thing I have ever witnessed in my life because... Good goddess I can't describe it. It was like he was standing there with his house wear on and then I closed my eyes and opened it to see him in his school uniform, already set and prepared with his beaut

    SERENA'S POVThe whispers have stopped abruptly, leaving behind a vacuum of sound that feels more threatening than the voices themselves.But the air still trembles with unease, the silence pressing against my skin like invisible fingers searching for weakness. I can feel the weight of it—the kind of oppressive stillness that sinks into your bones and settles there, making you feel like you're the only thing left alive in a world that's suddenly forgotten how to breathe. The quiet has substance, a presence that fills my lungs with each desperate inhale.The hallway stretches before me, unnaturally... still. No footsteps echoing against marble. No distant chatter of students. No subtle humming of electricity through the walls. Just an eerie stillness, like time itself has forgotten to move forward, caught between one moment and the next in perpetual suspension.I blink rapidly, my pulse quickening to a frantic rhythm as I spin around in place, eyes darting to every corner, every shadow

    SERENA'S POVCassie and Luna are staring at me with an unsettling intensity, their expressions frozen somewhere between concern and alarm. It's as though they've just witnessed something shift in my face—something subtle yet profoundly disturbing that I can't see myself."What did you hear?" Luna asks carefully, her amber eyes scanning the space around me methodically, as if she might spot something invisible lurking in the air between us. Her fingers twitch at her sides, ready to summon her power if needed.Cassie leans closer, the scent of her jasmine perfume momentarily overwhelming my senses. "Serena. Talk to us," she urges, her voice low but firm, deliberately calm in a way that makes my skin prickle. "Your eyes just... glazed over for a second."I shake my head, forcing my lips into what I hope resembles a reassuring smile. The muscles in my face feel stiff, uncooperative. "It's nothing. I think... I'm just tired. Stressed. You know how it is with finals and everything." The lie

  • My Hatred, My Soulmate    Chapter 138: Frustration

    SERENA'S POV The air feels too still, unnaturally suspended in time and space.The library—usually quiet, yes, but never like this—has taken on a heavy, oppressive silence. A silence that presses against my eardrums and weighs on my shoulders like an invisible burden. My pulse is slowing to an ominous crawl, my breath shaky and uneven, and I finally notice the subtle environmental changes that my anger has triggered: the way the floorboards creaked earlier under invisible pressure, the faint hum of old wiring now fallen silent, the way dust motes have stopped swirling in the golden streams of late afternoon light that slice through the tall windows. It's not just quiet in here.It's frozen. Suspended in amber. Time itself seems to hesitate.Because of me. Because of what I am. What I've become.Cassidy leans in close, her warm breath tickling my ear, her voice a hushed whisper brushing just beneath the oppressive silence. "Serena," she murmurs, her eyes darting nervously to the human

  • My Hatred, My Soulmate    Chapter 137: How To Get To Him II

    SERENA'S POVThe guard positioned in front of me might as well be carved out of granite—stone-faced, unflinching, and somehow immune to every ounce of white-hot fury I throw at him. His massive frame blocks my way completely, arms crossed over his chest like living barriers."Move," I say through clenched teeth, my voice dangerously low, vibrating with barely contained rage. The corridor's fluorescent lights cast harsh shadows across his impassive face.He doesn't blink. Doesn't even acknowledge that I've spoken. His eyes—dark and cold as a winter midnight—stare straight ahead, looking through me as if I'm nothing but air."I said, move." Each word drops like a stone between us, heavy with threat and desperation. My hands curl into tight fists at my sides, nails digging crescents into my palms.Still nothing. Not a muscle twitches in his face. The library is too quiet, unnaturally so, as if the world is holding its breath. The air feels too still, too thick with tension. It feels lik

  • My Hatred, My Soulmate    Chapter 136: How To Get To Him

    SERENA'S POVI count seconds. Minutes. Hours, maybe. The ticking clock on the wall becomes my only focus as I've stopped listening to the lecture entirely. My fingers tap relentlessly against the polished wooden desk—an impatient, staccato rhythm that's driving Cassidy crazy beside me, though she's too polite to say much beyond the occasional sigh and pointed glance. My eyes flick nervously from the analog clock to the window, where I spot one of the black-suited shadows stationed across the sun-drenched courtyard. Another bodyguard, stiff as a statue, lurks near the gym entrance, his eyes constantly scanning the perimeter. Yet another one positions himself strategically behind the library, almost blending into the shadows of the building. All of them here for me—watchful, vigilant, suffocating.I grit my teeth until my jaw aches. The realization sits heavy in my chest: I'm a prisoner in my own school, surrounded by walls both visible and invisible."Serena," Cassidy whispers, her war

  • My Hatred, My Soulmate    Chapter 135: The Return to School (Security Resumes)

    SERENA'S POVI'm surrounded.Not by enemies, not by anything dangerous—well, not in the usual sense of supernatural threats that have become my unwelcome norm. Instead, I'm surrounded by four armed boarding guards stationed strategically throughout the school hallway as if I'm a high-profile political target under imminent threat of assassination. Their vigilant eyes scan everyone who walks by with clinical precision, their postures rigid as steel beams, their expressions ice-cold and perpetually alert, betraying nothing but absolute focus on their singular mission: keeping me "safe."And I am absolutely fuming.I clutch my notebooks to my chest with white-knuckled fingers, trying desperately to breathe past the tightness constricting my throat like an invisible hand. The weight of so many watchful gazes—both the guards' and the curious students'—presses down on me, making the hallway feel smaller with each passing second. I look at the guards again, scattered along the corridor like

  • My Hatred, My Soulmate    Chapter 134: Her Deep Dark Secret

    The forest is unnaturally still, as if the very air has frozen in anticipation of some unspeakable event.Thick, serpentine mist coils around the gnarled roots of ancient trees as Isabella moves deeper into the woods at the far end of the city, her long dark gown trailing like spilled ink over the carpet of dead leaves. The fabric whispers against the forest floor, a sound too delicate for the malevolence that radiates from her slender form. Shadows crowd her from every angle, pressing against her skin like curious spectators, but she doesn't flinch. Not tonight. The searing pain in her chest is too consuming, drowning out all lesser fears.She grits her teeth, jaw muscles flexing visibly beneath her pale skin, each step sharp with fury and frustration that pulses from her like a beacon. The forest itself seems to shy away from her presence, branches curling back as she passes.Her mind, restless and raw, replays the moment again and again in vivid, excruciating detail—Serena suspende

  • My Hatred, My Soulmate    Chapter 133: The Love of a Stubborn Father

    SERENA'S POVI'm falling.There's no wind, no gravity—just this endless, sickening drop into a black pit that stretches forever beneath me. My arms flail wildly, desperate fingers grasping at empty air, seeking something, anything to halt my descent. But there's nothing. Just darkness so complete it seems to devour even the concept of light.I scream.No sound comes out. My vocal cords strain against the silence, but the void swallows every vibration before it can form into something real.I twist my body, neck craning painfully as I search frantically for a ledge, a crack, a single handhold in this endless darkness. Still nothing. Just me and the hungry void, its maw opened wide to consume me whole. Panic squeezes my lungs with iron bands, my chest burning with a helplessness so profound it feels like drowning on dry land. Then—A light.Far off, warm and pulsing like a heartbeat. Golden threads of hope in an ocean of despair. I reach for it with everything I have, muscles straining

  • My Hatred, My Soulmate    Chapter 132: Unwilling to Admit

    The dust has barely settled, hanging suspended in beams of fractured light that pierce through the collapsed sections of ceiling.The building is a shell of what it was—walls cracked and splintered like brittle bones, furniture reduced to unrecognizable ruins, and the air heavy with the acrid sting of scorched magic that burns the nostrils with every breath. Ancient power lingers, a toxic residue clinging to every surface. But Frederick's eyes aren't on the wreckage surrounding them. They're locked on Serena—his daughter, his blood—with an intensity that could burn through steel.She lies still, her body cradled in Luna's arms like something precious and broken beyond repair. Her skin is ghostly pale against the dark fabric of Luna's clothes, her chest rising and falling in uneven rhythms. Luna kneels beside them, her slender hands hovering just above Serena's face, fingertips trembling with concentration. Her lips move in silent incantations—ancient words passed down through generati
