"Aren't you getting a little too comfortable with the Blazes?"

My hand, lifting the slice of pizza, paused in mid-air. I swallowed, then continued eating and watching Game of Thrones. "What do you mean?"

"You skipped a class to hangout with Jaxon."

"That's not true. I skipped class because I wasn't feeling well. Jaxon was only there... to accompany me."

    "Aren't you getting a little too comfortable with the Blazes?" My hand, lifting the slice of pizza, paused in mid-air. I swallowed, then continued eating and watching Game of Thrones. "What do you mean?" "You skipped a class to hangout with Jaxon." "That's not true. I skipped class because I wasn't feeling well. Jaxon was only there... to accompany me." Guit surged through my insides for the lies I had been feeding my friends. But this was the best for them. The less they knew the less danger they'd be in. Besides, I didn't want them to live with fear like I was. Even though Zeus Valerious was in jail, there were probably a lot more of his kind roaming around unknown, and the unknown was far riskier than the known. Also, it wasn't like the feds could keep Mr. Valerious forever. I might have told them about his crimes but I never told them about who he was in case he bestowed them with the same fate as his other victims. But now that I thought thoroughly, I couldn't help but wond

    The silhouette of a monstrous creature clawed out of the shadows, its phantom fangs dripping with a venomous darkness that seeped into every fibre of my bones. I couldn't move, I couldn't scream. Then the fog lifted, and it crawled out of the bushes. I gasped. It was a wolf. My wolf. Blood. So much of it smeared all over his face as though he just killed someone. He did. The other wolf that attacked me before now hanging from between his teeth, torn and lifeless. Slowly, he opened his mouth, and the body collapsed to the ground with a thud. His head tilted in that animalistic way before his eyes turned red, and he snarled, long, thick canines extended. He lurched. A scream pierced through my lips as I sat up abruptly, my head hitting the chairtop behind. I groaned, rubbing the spot and looking around my empty house, the sound of my loud breathing echoing off the walls. A dream. It was a bad dream.I jumped when a blaring noise startled me again, my heart skipping a beat. Clut

    "Told you I'd make you believe." Jaxon smirked, satisfied with whatever he was doing. I glanced at the van before me in the empty parking lot. It'd been three days since I last came to classes. Today, as I stepped in, Jaxon appeared before me, asking to give him a chance that I wouldn't regret. I had thought about it long and hard, and I was scared enough to desperately want to find a reason to stop my insane heart from beating out of my chest everytime I thought about Mr. Valerious and curious enough to want to discover who he really was. Even if it meant skipping my first class of the day. "Where are we going?" "Nowhere." I frowned at him. His smirk broadened a little more. "You're going to meet someone," saying, he slid open the door to the van. A woman, old enough to be someone's grandma, sat inside. She looked up, dark circles rimmed her hazel eyes, and grim lines made their accommodation in between her brows. She looked like someone snatched away her most precious possessi

    I straightened against the wall, the murderous energy radiating off him chilling me to the bones. What would he do if I told him? Kill them too? When I didn't answer, he spoke again, enunciating each word through gritted teeth, "Anastasia. Who. Hurt. You?" I stilled, my heart skipping a long beat. This was the first time he called me by my first name, and the sound as if engraved itself in my memory, echoing inside my head like a seraphic melody. Something bubbled in my chest, a fluttering sensation, so in contrast to the raging fear clawing at my gut. But I shouldn't feel like this. Mr. Valerious wasn't any better than those guys. He too found pleasure in hurting me, making me cry and insulting me in front of everyone. He had no right to demand anything from me let alone get revenge on my behalf. I opened my mouth to speak, but nothing came out, my lungs feeling scratchy. So, clearing my throat, I tried again, my bottom lip quivering. "Wh-What is it to you? You must be happy to s

    That's for the little defiant stunt you pulled on my car. *Slap*The scene kept playing in my head like a recording without a pause button. It felt so real, even the sting of the spank on my skin... I visibly shivered, looking ahead and finding Mr. Valerious' eyes fixed on me. They narrowed in warning before steering away. But for what? Not concentrating on his class? Who's fault was it then? My cheeks and ears heated as I squeezed my thighs. What was wrong with me? How could I have such absurd dreams about a teacher? The one who hated me, and I hated back.From the amount of disdain I felt towards him last night, I should have been dreaming about having him in a chokehold. Or pulling out each of his smooth, lush strands of hair until there was none left, and he looked like an ugly duckling. Who was I kidding? He'd probably still pull off a Vague cover worth billions of hype. Gosh, I had to stop thinking. And considering the way his jaw tightened with each passing second, it was a

    "What the!" I blurted, dumbfounded. Why did he chase me down like a freaking creeper? Then his command registered in my mind. To give me a ride? Huh? I stared at him for another moment, sitting with my legs spread on the pavement, my lips parted in pure bewilderment, and my groceries scattered about like a tornado chewed me in, didn't like the taste, and spat me back out. He didn't move, didn't even look my way. His eyes were fixed ahead, one of his leather-cladded arms firmly holding the steering wheel. I had never seen him in leather before. The midnight biker jacket loosely hugging his large frame and almost bursting at the biceps. He looked ten years younger wearing that.Until I glanced up at his face, the scowl still intact in its place, if not turning scarier by time with each tick of his jaw. My mind pivoted to the video, drawing back the terrifying mien of his face, and goosebumps rose up the length of my back. Breathing heavily, I brought my legs up and sat on a crouching

    "Mr. Valerious?" I marveled.Stepping back, I checked the room number.That's where Jaxon texted me to come meet him. Then what was the professor doing here? Maybe he chose the wrong classroom. A flare of hope rushed through me at the thought. "I'm sorry, Professor. I'm in the wrong place. I'll l

  • Zeus - The Alpha of Hatred    Chapter 12

    "Come in," the professor's deep voice came from behind his office door. With a deep breath, I pushed the door open and walked in. He was working on his laptop with an undivided attention."What do you want?" he asked without sparing me a glance. His cold, impassive conduct sliced through my heart

    "Ana!" A scream pierced through the ringing in my ears when the world spun in a swift motion right before I landed on my back. The sound of shattering glass rained around me. But not a single shard touched my skin, no pain bloomed through my flesh. Although something else burned through me.Unusua

    Tears blurred my vision as I ran through the sequoia forest, the ancient giants looming over me, shielding me from the cruel world. My breathing came out in ragged gasps as my heart pounded in my chests. I didn't know where I was going or why I was going there, I just ran. From whatever that happen
