TEYA'S POV

The first thing I feel is pain. Not sharp, not sudden—just this dull, heavy throb, like every inch of me is pulsing with it. My skin hurts. My bones ache. Even breathing feels like dragging glass through my chest.

My eyes flutter open, slow and sticky. Above me—white. Too white. A ceiling, blank and sterile, lit up by cold fluorescent lights that buzz quietly, like a swarm of tiny, angry insects.

It smells clean. Too clean. Antiseptic sharpness in the air, mixed with something colder, like plastic and metal and quiet fear.

A hospital.

I’m in a hospital.

And for a second, I don’t move. Don’t blink. Just let the ache settle around me like a second skin. Because if I shift, if I turn my head, I’ll know exactly how bad it is.

For a second—just a breath—I don’t know where I am.

Then it all hits.

Like lightning straight to the chest.

Pearl. Her hands. The hits. The floor. The blood.

The light.

The red light.

The camera.

My eyes snap open wide now, panic

  • The Human mate: Marked for vengeance.    Chapter 69

    Lucien’s POVThe courtyard was quiet.For once, the academy breathed in silence, the chaos of the day held at bay by golden shafts of sunlight filtering through the treetops. I sat on the worn bench under the east arch, half-tilted toward the sun, a book open in my lap though I wasn’t really reading it. My fingers traced the weathered edge of the page as my mind wandered,.drifting into memories I wasn’t sure I wanted to examine too closely.Teya’s laugh echoed here once. That small, surprised giggle she let slip when I dropped a stack of scrolls because she startled me, how her eyes lit up when she teased me for being too serious. Those tiny moments had lodged themselves somewhere deep inside me, like hooks I hadn’t known I’d swallowed.But I should’ve known peace wouldn’t last long.It hit me all at once, like a pressure drop in the air, a sudden crackle across my skin that made my wolf stir inside me.She’s coming.The hair on the back of my neck stood upright as the scent hit nex

  • The Human mate: Marked for vengeance.    Chapter 68

    TEYA'S POVYou know how sometimes, life throws you a curveball, and you can't even remember how you got into the mess you're in? Yeah, that was me right then. I couldn’t recall how I had left the studio, but the chaos inside me was unmistakable. My heart was pounding like a drum stuck on fast-forward, that tightness in my throat felt like a boulder lodged there, and the air around me? It was thick and heavy, as if I were trying to breathe underwater.One moment, I stood there, completely frozen, processing the craziness swirling in my head, and the next, I was bolting down the hallway. I sprinted past the mirrors, all those reflections reminding me of the absurdity of what was happening, while the sound of my own footsteps echoed back, taunting me like some cruel joke. It was like my body was on autopilot, but my brain? Oh man, my brain was going into overdrive.**Lucien. Reya. Lucien.** Each name rang out in my head like church bells, loud and clanging, drowning out any sense of cal

  • The Human mate: Marked for vengeance.    Chapter 67

    Teya’s POVThe silver wolf’s words—“You’ll know soon enough” kept playing over and over in my head like a song I didn’t ask for. I’d jolted awake with my heart trying to hammer its way out of my chest, the sheets twisted around my legs, damp with sweat. The room felt wrong. Off. Too quiet, too still. Like the world had paused, just slightly, waiting for something to catch up. Like I was looking at my life from the outside.I sat up, blinking, trying to hold onto the dream, but it was slipping through my fingers like water. Still, those words stuck. They weren’t just part of the dream. They felt… planted. Heavy. Important. The kind of thing that doesn’t just fade with daylight.And then Reya’s name clawed back into my thoughts, followed by the whispers from the day before. Her and “that guy.” Whoever the hell that was. It sounded stupid on the surface, just gossip, just idle talk. But it hadn’t felt idle. It had felt sharp. Like something underneath it mattered. Like the dream and t

  • The Human mate: Marked for vengeance.    Chapter 66

    Teya’s POVI never really noticed when we fell into this unusual rhythm—this almost unspoken connection that had developed between Lucien and me. It wasn’t something we sat down and mapped out over coffee or talked about in-depth during our breaks. It just sort of evolved, like plants finding their way toward the sunlight, without any intentional planning on our part. Every time I showed up at the studio, it was like he had a sixth sense about it. I mean, how did he always seem to know? It was kind of impressive, really. And of course, I never hesitated to let him in. There was something comforting about the way he stepped into the space; it felt like I was inviting in a slice of calm amidst a whirlwind of thoughts and insecurities.At first, those towering mirrors felt menacing, reflecting not just my physical form but also my doubts, amplifying everything I feared. The silence in the room could be deafening, almost mocking, echoing my every misstep. But over time, something shifted

  • The Human mate: Marked for vengeance.    Chapter 65

    Teya’s POVI didn’t know what was happening anymore.One minute I was bracing for the fall—again—and the next, Lucien was standing between me and the edge like it was the most natural thing in the world. Like this wasn’t all backwards and twisted and humiliating as hell.I could still feel his eyes on me as I walked out, even though I never looked back. I couldn’t.If I did, I’d shatter into tiny, bloody, embarrassing pieces right there on the damn floor.I didn’t get far before the door creaked open again behind me.I tensed.Footsteps.Lucien’s voice, lower now. Softer. “Sorry.”I blinked.He caught up beside me, walking just a bit behind like he wasn’t sure he was allowed to be next to me anymore.“I shouldn’t have barged in like that. It was reckless.”Then he stopped, stepping slightly aside and dipping his head.I frowned. “What are you—?”But then I heard it.Boots. Not school-issued. Not military. Something heavier. Calmer.Like they didn’t need to rush because the ground move

  • The Human mate: Marked for vengeance.    Chapter 64

    TEYA'S POVWhen morning rolled around, it was as if the entire world had just... hit pause.No whispers floated through the air. No curious stares bored into my skin. Nothing.Silence.An eerie silence.I stood there in the middle of the hallway, frozen like a deer caught in headlights, feeling like a total idiot. I was just waiting. Waiting for someone—anyone—to barrel into me as if by accident, or shoot me that glance, you know, the kind that felt like it could burn a hole right through you. I half-expected someone to hurl a cruel remark loud enough for everyone to hear, to remind me that I was still in their line of fire.But it never happened. There were no hostile looks, no whispered insults, not even a single phone aimed in my direction.It was like I was wrapped in this invisible cloak again.And oh man—who would have thought I’d actually miss being invisible?At first, I figured it had to be some kind of trick. Maybe they’d moved the whole circus online, laughing behind their
