Semua Bab LOVE ME, HATE ME!: Bab 1 - Bab 10

I woke up to the soft warmth of sunlight filtering through my window, but what truly roused me was the affectionate kisses and tight embraces from my parents. Their love was like a protective cocoon, something that made every day feel safe, even if a part of me still felt incomplete."Happy birthday, sweetie!" Mom and Dad said in unison, their smiles beaming down at me."Thank you, Mom and Dad," I replied, wrapping my arms around them. Their embrace was familiar and comforting, but deep down, I knew that their love alone wasn’t enough to fill the void inside me.They were ordinary werewolves in our pack, without titles or special ranks, but that never mattered to me. They were my parents, and they loved me unconditionally.Mom handed me a neatly wrapped box, her eyes shimmering with warmth. "Here, sweetie. I hope you find your mate today."Dad placed a soft kiss on my forehead. "I hope you find the happiness your heart longs for, child."I smiled at them, touched by their words. "Yeah,

Last night’s dream wouldn’t leave me alone.It wasn’t the first time I dreamed of someone in my room—watching, always watching—but last night felt different.It wasn’t even a full moon.And he didn’t just watch.He kissed me. Or at least, tried to. I could still feel the phantom pressure of his lips, the weight of his presence.It felt real. Too real. And that made me nervous.After breakfast, I got dressed in faded, high-waisted jeans and a black off-shoulder crop top. Simple, but it hugged my curves just right.As I walked through the school gates, boys greeted me with eager smiles. Girls stared daggers, their jealousy obvious.I ignored them all.My eyes were on my classroom—until I stopped short.Alexander.And Natalie.They were standing just a few steps away.Alexander’s expression froze when our eyes met. Natalie noticed instantly, her grip tightening possessively around his arm. But he didn’t react. He just stared at me like he was waiting—maybe hoping—to see pain in my eyes.I

Alexander's POV Today is the day I turn seventeen, I'm not excited to find my mate. Having a mate is a bother, I don't want to be tied to one person. I want to fool around till I'm 28, and maybe by that time I might change my mind and settle down with my mate. But fuck this is annoying! I can't take over the alpha position without my mate.  So I had no choice but to find her and mark her. I went to school in ripped jeans and a Black leather jacket. I was walking in the hallway when I caught a very sweet and addictive scent coming from one of the classrooms. I followed the scent till I saw her. The one who's giving off the addictive smell. ' What the hell!!! ' ' Don't Tell me she's my mate? ' I said internally. 'of course, she is! Our mate is so beautiful..' Xander my wolf said. ' Beautiful? Are you kidding me? Can't you see? She looks disgusting!' I told my wolf. The smell's so strong that i

Alexander's POV " Wh- What is this?" I asked my mate in shock, I'm holding something that looks like skin from her hand. She tenses and I can feel her panicking. She's standing with her back in front of me but I can still see her shoulders due to her off-shoulder top and I saw something terrifying. 'Her skin's aging!' To my surprise, I took a step backward. " Something's wrong with our mate! Xander my wolf said. "Your s-skin... W-why are th-" I wasn't able to finish what I'm trying to say as she tried to run away, but I grabbed her hand and that made her flinch.  I wanted to ask her if what she's experiencing now was Cedric's doing, but she's struggling so much to break free from my grasp. "Let go, Alexander!" I can tell this is her weakened state from her voice and her breathing, but why is she still so strong that it's hard to hold her still for much longer. " Wai-" I said, but before I ca

I couldn't fathom how things ended that way, so I just left without searching for any evidence of Anessa's enemy. It's not like I could find anything anyway. " I'll just wait for Anessa to recover and show up," I said.  I'm worried about my wolf but I know she isn't dead, because if she is I would've died along with her without even knowing it. I ran for like fifteen minutes searching for my pack, though I'm in my human form I can run faster than an ordinary werewolf. The moment I entered the pack's territory I heard voices from a few meters away. " I Natalie Kendrick, hereby reject you Henry Austin as my mate!"  'Huh? Natalie? She must have found her mate. But why would she reject him, and why are they in the pack's boundary?' I stopped my tracks and went to hide listening to their conversation. " What? Why? I thought we were doing fine?" Said, Henry. " Seriously? You don't know?" Natalie said like sh
