But the smile didn’t look genuine. It felt forced. Like she was stretching her lips just to keep herself from breaking.

“ Lusty… let me talk to her. I’m sure it’s a misunderstanding,” Anastasia stepped forward, her back facing me. She grabbed Lustre’s hands and wiped her tears with her other hand.

I didn’t even realize Lustre was crying.

Yet she was still smiling at me.

“ Is it?” Lustre asked softly. “ Are you not dating Sebastian?”

At that moment, Anastasia turned to face me.

I took two deep b

  • The Human Among Wolves   Chapter 116

    Monica’s fingers wrapped around my wrist before I could even process what was happening, pulling me away from the entrance and into a quiet corner just beside the side wall of one of the buildings,My heart was still pounding, not just from seeing her, but from the realization that Rex was out there… and any second now, he would come back and notice I was gone.Forty-five minutes.That was all I had given myself.And now, standing in front of Monica, I wasn’t even sure five minutes would be enough.“Lily…” she started, her voice shaking slightly as she held my shoulders, her eyes scanning my face like she was trying to confirm I was real. “What are you doing here? Why are you in Centervile?”I opened my mouth to answer, but she didn’t give me the chance.“And why did you stop reaching out?” she continued, her brows knitting together, she was clearly confused , I didn’t blame her ….. “You just stoped reaching out, No calls, no messages, nothing. Do you know how worried I was?”Guilt hit

    Centerville was still the same, the small town where everyone lived like one big family. The only home I had ever truly known before Raven Pack. I was back here, yet my mind refused to settle on anything except what Rex had said in the car.“Married couples? Really?” I rolled my eyes as we stepped out of his parked car.My feet slowed on their own, and I found myself staring ahead.Centerville High.The pride of our small town.The first real building you would see when you entered. Nothing had changed—not the faded blue paint, not the old flag by the entrance, not even the cracked pavement leading up to the gates.And just like that, everything came rushing back.I was no longer standing beside Rex. I was standing in front of this same building a year ago, dressed in my graduation gown, holding my certificate with trembling hands.I had just turned eighteen.“Look at my daughter!” my dad had shouted, his voice louder than everyone else’s.I could almost see him now, spinning me arou

    “ Lily ! Get up !” “ Lily !” I heard Amber calling out for me as I grumble on the bed , turning to the other side, I couldn’t get enough sleep last night . “ Lily …Get up ! Rex is outside!” She said and I stood up immediately, turning to face her .“ Rex is outside? Why is Rex outside ?” I asked and she just shrugged.“ I have no idea ….Care to tell me ?” I rubbed my eyes , I couldn’t wrap my head around whether or not I had filled Amber in on the Centervile trip.“ Uhmmm…Hmmm…He is here for our trip “ “ What Trip ?” “ Rex and I are going to Centervile for our Human studies project “ I stood up before she could ask for a proper explanation and I stormed towards the bathroom .“ WHAT ! CENTERVILE!” Amber’s voice was high , just as expected , she rushed and pushed the door open .“ What do you mean you are going to centervile with Rex” She repeated while I prepare my bath .“ It’s for a school project …I couldn’t stop it , The tutor picked Rex as my partner and we have to go t

    I didn’t answer him not because I didn’t want to.But because I couldn’t.My mind went completely blank, like someone had wiped every thought clean the moment the question left Sebastian’s lips.“Are you in love with Rex?”The words echoed in my head, over and over again, but no matter how hard I tried to reach for something…anything , I came up empty.So I just stood there, staring at him because there was nothing to say.And somehow… that silence was tormenting than any answer I could have given.I looked away , breaking eye contact first. My chest felt tight, the air around me had suddenly gotten away , I couldn’t breathe properly. .“I…” I started, but the words died before they could form.I didn’t have an answer.That was the truth.And I hated it.So instead of forcing something out, I did the only thing I could.I turned and started to walk away.I didn’t even make it two steps before I froze again.Rex was standing there , I just stared at him.Then something in me snapped

    One second I was trying to balance on my feet, Anastasia’s hands still on my arm, and the next he was right in front of me, his presence was swallowing everything else in the room. He lowered himself to my level, his eyes scanning my face . “Lily…”My name came out ,it sounded almost restrained, he was forcing himself not to react too much in front of everyone.Anastasia loosened her hold on me to hold something to steady us both , and the moment she did, my knees nearly buckled. I staggered back.Rex caught me before I could fall.His hands wrapped around my arms, steadyi. For a brief second all I could hear was my own breathing and feel the warmth of his grip.“I’ve got you,” he murmured.Clara scoffed loudly from across the room, clearly done with the entire situation. She turned on her heel, already heading for the door.“I’m not standing here for this nonsense—”“Close the door!.”Rex didn’t raise his voice, but the authority in it froze everyone.A student closest to the door h

    “Do you want to be my friend?”Rex’s question brought me back from my mind trip. I had been lost in my thoughts from earlier, and with him suddenly saying he wanted to be my friend out of the blue, it was shocking. What made it even more confusing was the sincerity in his eyes.“Why? Why do you want to be my friend?” I asked.“Do I need a reason to want to be your friend, Lily?” Rex asked, and I nodded.“Yes. I wouldn’t have asked if it was anyone else, but because it’s you… why?” I pressed as we walked outside toward the water fountain. Recess was almost over, and lessons would begin immediately. My stomach was grumbling because I barely had anything to eat, yet I was here trying to crack the code of Rex’s sudden friendship request.“Well… I just want to get close to you.”I paused and turned to him.“You see, this is where it gets confusing. All of this… coming from you. You are making me confused. One minute you hate me, the next you are being nice to me. What exactly do you want,

    I had just watched these two brothers bet on me, and the humiliation of it still burned inside my chest as I stormed away. My feet moved quickly down the hallway, almost blindly, my thoughts racing faster than my steps. I couldn’t believe what had just happened out there by the lake. How did Sebast

    When we got to the art theater, some students were already huddled together in a circle. Their voices were low and anxious, and the moment I pushed through the crowd, my heart dropped.Lustre was lying on the ground.Anastasia knelt beside her, clutching her arm while Sebastian was on the other sid

    Maltilda walked out of the room and into the garden, where Amber was attending to her flowers. The morning sun hit the petals softly as Amber bent over them, humming faintly to herself. Maltilda walked past her without stopping.Amber chuckled behind her.“Trouble in paradise?”Maltilda paused and

    LILYMy first day at Raven Academy didn’t go so well, if you ask me. I caught the attention of the bullies and the Class A wolves. Even worse, I was holding the jacket of the school’s most feared boy, the hockey captain and future Alpha, Rex. How bad could a first day get?“You have to pick an afte
