Madison's incessant horning sounded throughout the neighborhood, and ended up pissing my aunt off.
"For goodness sake, go tell your crazy friend to shut the hell up, it's past seven in the goddamn morning!"That finally made me stop contemplating on what to wear to school that morning and just decide on the blue t-shirt. I was wearing a black denim trousers anyways, anything goes well with that.Madison pressed the horn again and I cringed. The girl is a handful, I wouldn't be surprised if she was doing that on purpose to irk my aunt.And it was working.In seconds, I was out of my room and outside our house, without eating breakfast.I skipped breakfast for two reasons, I was very late and if I wasted one more second, Madison would murder me. And ginger bread was for breakfast that morning, I was allergic to ginger but my family obviously don't give two fucks about my allergy."You're a nutcase, Maddie!" I commented,After my encounter with Kendall during lunch time, I made an excuse and told my friends that I had a splitting headache. They didn't believe me, I could tell by the looks on their faces but I didn't really care, I just wanted to be alone.Everything was too much for me to take. It seemed as if the world kept crashing down on me without any warning. I have always kept my head down all my life. Born as a hybrid, to a werewolf mother and a human father, I've been looked down on even by my family and pack members. Bonding with my mate was my only chance to find my happiness but all that went down the drain when my mate rejected me.Now the daughter of the most powerful and cruel Alpha was after my life because of my mate.I really didn't feel like going to school today. I just wanted to crawl in my bed and stay under my duvet all day. I have little to no strength in me left to fight anymore.Grudgingly, I climbed out of my bed and started heading towards my bathroom but stopped on my way
My eyes widened at the contents of Zayne's car dashboard, the burger slipping off my hand and dropped on the floor of the car.Zayne closed the dashboard casually, he didn't seem to be hiding whatever was in there. I glanced at him to look for any weird look on his face and found none."Do you have hand tremors or you're just very clumsy?" Zayne commented with sarcasm at the burger slipping off my hand.What the hell was that in his dashboard? How did the staff ID card of Mr Hudson who was just murdered by a werewolf get to his car? And what on earth was that chipped off nail covered in blood? I had so many questions to ask Zayne but I couldn't bring myself to ask him. I didn't know how to ask him, because I don't know if I was supposed to see that or anybody at all. And I was scared. I don't know if I was scared of the answer I would get or if I was scared of him. Also he didn't act weird or secretive at those scandalous contents in his car."We are here." Zayne suddenly announ
Russell Marshall was the total opposite of Zayne Marshall, he had softer features, and he had a smiley face. He looked nice and less intimidating, unlike his cousin. But I still find Zayne more attractive, maybe because he's my mate, I don't know.I took his hand as we exchanged handshakes."Can I sit?" Russell asked, gesturing to the space beside me.I nodded in affirmative."You... smell like milk...." Russell pointed out.I let out a dry chuckle. Of course I smell like milk, I just got bathed with like two litres of milk."Are you okay?" "Yes, of course.""Then what are you doing here?" He countered."You're quite the curious one, aren't you?" I smirked at him.He mock gasped, "Oh my god, how did you know?!" Both of us laughed at this. "Did Zayne do something?" Russell asked again."You are bent on finding gossip." I commented."I just can't ignore when people are in distress. And I don't do gossips. I'm too busy for that."After a moment of silence, I replied, "I'm fine. Just t
Hilltop High was a school full of dramas and chaos and we have been getting them in full dosage these past weeks. Especially with the annihilation news. My friends told me that Eclipse pack planted a human spy in our school, to get hybrids who might be hiding their identity, with a huge amount of money as a prize for it. All hybrids and their families, well except mine, they don't really care if I was annihilated or not, had been in panic since then. I had been thrown into too much chaos that I almost forgot about the annihilation, I've had too much to deal with. But when I got to school this morning, I was forced back to reality. The reality of people like me. The hybrids.Three students from my school had gone missing, and their families were all over the place, the panic from everybody had increased because all the three students were hybrids. Nobody needed a fortune teller to tell us that the annihilation had begun. Tracy was
My heart raced as I stood fixed to the ground in front of Zayne, who was still sitting criss crossed on the floor of the basketball court. After he said those words, there was deafening silence in the large hall.Zayne Marshall just admitted to the murder allegations. He had taken a person's life. And he didn't look remorseful. Who was I kidding? He just said he doesn't regret it.At this point, I wasn't sure I was supposed to hear his confession. I was starting to regret ever coercing him to tell me the truth. Now I didn't know what to do with the dark information."Zayne, " I called, my voice quivering with a mix of fear and some other emotion I could figure out. "D...did y ..you say what I just .... heard you say? Or did I mishear you?" I stammered."You wanted the truth. There you fucking have it! Do what you please with it!" Zayne yelled. I noticed his voice was now a little shaky.I knew Zayne was very strict and hot tempe
The four of us in the basketball court had to take few seconds to processe the new shocking information in our brain.And when it finally sank in, the twins and I expressed our shock in unison, "What?!""What the hell?" One of the twins said."Are you sure it's Russell's? You could be mistaken." The other twin tried reasoning."I'm not dumb Jayson. This is Russell's mobile number." Zayne replied, sounding a bit annoyed that Jayson asked the question."Chill bro. Was just asking.""What could they have met for? " Jayson asked rhetorically.I cleared my throat before saying, "Uhmmm, guys, I really think we shouldn't jump into conclusions. Plus, I've met Russell once and I don't think he's that kind of person.""Sweetheart, I know what you mean but you only met him once." One of the twins replied to me, I couldn't tell if it was sarcasm or.not."Yeah, I actally agree with Dahlia. It's hard to picture Russell like that. He's like the kindest soul I know. And let's not forget that Russell a
Zayne's soft expression made my heart flutter, releasing butterflies in my stomach. Though the physical pain from the attack still hurt but Zayne coming to her rescue when she could have been killed and his visible show of concern, tended to her wounds and made it hurt less.Zayne cleared his throat and picked up her bag that had been displaced during the scuffle, from the ground and handed it to her. "Follow me. You need to treat your wounds. "I glanced at my shoulder and looked at him raising my eyebrows, "Uhmmmm, follow you to where?" He gave me a blank look, "Do you want treat your wounds or rather leave it to rot?" Now that was the Zayne I was used to. The sarcastic and arrogant Zayne Marshall, who actually cares but pretends like he doesn't."Let's go then." I agreed and we went together.After riding with Zayne in his car for over twenty minutes, I was starting to wonder where on earth we were heading to, and that was
Kendall's sinister smile sent a cold shiver down my spine as I watched her sip the tea she was offered."Dahlia, what are you doing there? Come over here and sit down already! You kept your friend waiting for almost an hour!" My grandmother scolded.What?!Kendall had been with my grandmother and aunt for an hour?!"By the way, you should have told me that you were friends with Kendall Forrest. I would have asked you to invite her for dinner or something. She's such a sweet girl. She even offered to make tea for us. " My grandmother praised Kendall, looking at her with a proud smile on her face, something she had never done to me, her granddaughter.Then it clicked and my eyes widened with alarm. I rushed over to the table where the cups of tea sat."Kendall made you tea?! Are you okay?!" I asked, what if she had already poisoned them before I came."What do you mean?" My aunt asked , eyeing me.I scanned their
