LOGINChapter 48: The darkness in herPhoebe’s POVThe air crackled with suffocating tension, so intense, only the sound of our breath could be heard.“How…how long have you been here?” I stammered, my fingers twisting together. Eric didn’t answer immediately. Instead be brought out a cigarette, slowing lighting it. “Long enough,” he said finally, exhaling a thin stream of smoke, “to watch you almost kill her,” My breath caught in my throat, his words taking the air from my lungs. The image of how she had struggled under my grip, gasping for air, flashed in my head. He was right, I had almost killed someone. I lowered my gaze, unable to make eye contact with him. I hated what I did. And even more, I hated the fact he had seen me this way. “I didn’t mean to,” I said, my voice barely audible. “That’s what you think,” he replied, his gaze piercing through my soul. “But the look in your eyes…said otherwise.” “Yet, you didn't stop me” I stated, voicing out the question in my head. “Why?”“
Chapter 47Phoebe’s POVEverything about today just felt…off. I didn’t know if it was because of the way students stared at me with mixed emotions. Or the fact I could hear whispers from miles away; something no wolf should be able to do. My vision was sharper than usual, my ears picking every sound. The atmosphere in the hallway became heavy. Their gazes locked on me with intense intensity, making me almost forget how to walk. I held my throbbing head, trying to shut out the voices around me. My throat tightened, the sudden attention making me feel uneasy. The moment I pushed the classroom door open, every noise died. Every head turned to me. Their lips moved rapidly, followed by giggles. A knot formed in my stomach, my neck becoming stiff. The curiosity that glowed in their eyes felt magnetic, drawing attention to my every move. I immediately regretted coming to class, wanting nothing more than to disappear. Every step I took echoed louder than it should.“I shouldn’t have come,”
Chapter 46: Phoebe’s POV “I’m leaving.” The words slipped out before I could stop myself. Aurora stood still, her eyes widening. For a moment, she didn’t speak, just kept staring to see if I was making a joke. “Wh…what do you mean you’re leaving?” Aurora asked, her voice barely audible. “Where are you going?”“I don’t even know,” I sighed, squeezing my eyes shut.”“How’s that even possible?” “I know it sounds crazy. But…that’s the truth.”Silence fell, heavy and suffocating. Aurora stood up from the bed despite her injuries, wincing slightly as her foot touched the floor. “Then start talking,” she said, her voice cold as ice. “You can’t just say that without a reason.” I bit my lip, my nails digging into my palms. “I don’t have a choice.”“Everybody has a choice,” she stated. “Don’t give me that bullshit.” I looked away, the rubber floor, suddenly the most fascinating thing in the room. “Phoebe, please. Just tell me what’s going on?”“I can’t,” I muttered, shaking my head.
Chapter 44 Phoebe’s POV I pressed my entire body into him, wrapping my hands around his shoulders. My fingernails pressed into his back, the sweet smell of peppermint filling my nostrils. I didn’t want to let go. Too afraid that if I did, I might never get the chance to hug him ever again. I pulled back slowly, my hands lingering on his neck. Looking into his gaze, my eyes couldn’t help but get teary. “What is it?” He asked, his brows furrowed slightly. I hesitated, swallowing the lump in my throat. Should I tell him? No I wouldn’t. “Nothing,” I replied with a smile that didn’t reach my eyes. “I just…really missed you.” He narrowed his gaze, staring at me. “Really? “Yeah.” “But why do I feel there’s something bothering you?” He whispered. “You know you can tell me anything, right? “I know. I’m just feeling a bit emotional.” He tilted his head, his brows raising. “Are you sure that’s it?” “Yes.” Silence settled between us again. “Promise me…promise m
Chapter 44Phoebe’s POVThe crown felt heavy, uncomfortable on my head. The applause around me was loud and endless. Yet it didn't feel real. It felt forced. Like a staged performance. I wanted to smile, but I couldn’t. Eric and John stood in the crowd, their faces glowing with pride. For that brief moment, warmth spread through my chest. Vivian glared at me with cold eyes, a flicker of sneer crossing her features. Lucas’s father was beside her, his expression, unfazed. His gaze no longer held that look of disdain, instead, there was a bit of respect. Recognition. Together, they left the tournament ground. The three founders of the school walked towards me. Their steps, measured and calculated. Professor Diana stood in the middle, composed and calm. The short man was at the right. While Mr Grim Reaper was at the left. “You earned it,” Professor Diana uttered. “You came this far through your strength…and unique abilities.My stomach dropped. The word “unique” lingered in the air.
Chapter 43Phoebe’s POV The battle continued with none of them willing to back down. The crowd had long stopped cheering, fear etched on their faces. For some odd reason, Eric didn’t just sink his teeth into Lucas’s shoulder, instead he drank a bit of his blood. Lucas howled loudly in pain, his body collapsing to the ground. He transformed into his human form, dragging his battered body. My heart sank, my nails digging into my palms. Eric also morphed back, slowly licking the blood off his lips as if it were wine. His crimson eyes glowed even more, shining with hunger. Suddenly, the air became suffocating, making it difficult to breathe. Chills prickled against my skin, the hair on my neck standing up. This wasn’t just power. It was something darker. It felt…evil. Even more terrifying than his wolf form. “Lucas,” I called out, my voice laced with urgency. Lucas didn’t even move, treating me as if I was invisible, a mere background noise. I had to do something or else, Lucas might
Phoebe’s POV I stood frozen, feeling a cold numbness spreading through my chest, as if I was staring at a ghost, not a person. I blinked repeatedly, thinking it was the aftereffect of my stay in the clinic. Unfortunately, it wasn't a hallucination. Shock, happiness, confusion, and fear came over m
