Tears welled up in my eyes, blurring my vision so that I couldn't see clearly where I was treading, but I still couldn't stop running. What he said to me was echoing painfully in my head, sending shivers up and down my spine.I tried not to believe him. I forced myself to accept that he was lying to push me away, but I knew vividly within me when my mate was telling the truth. I could hear the pain and anguish in his voice from being a killer to his mates. This was why he didn't want to have anything to do with me at the beginning.He loved me, but would still have to murder me in a gruesome way. What kind of curse is this, and what did he do to deserve this? What did I also do to deserve this kind of end?I stopped running but was now walking fast and aimlessly, groping through different paths because I couldn't remember the right road that led to my classroom neither could I tell where I was at the time. My brain was hazy and blank as I kept trying not to break down. The leisure ti

All I knew was that two other teachers came in and gave their lectures, but I could swear I heard no meaningful words from them.I wasn't listening as different thoughts kept swarming into my head. I couldn't wait for the closure bell to ring, so I would run over to Laura and the Alpha to tell them what just happened today. It was something that needed an urgent response before it got out of hand. Everything we planned and arranged was all falling apart, and at the end, we could be faced with a dreadful outcome that would make us regret all we had done to Ella.I glanced over my shoulder and saw Ella still sitting with her head buried under the desk, and it made me curious about what might have transpired between the Lycan and her. There was no trace of a smile or excitement when she stepped into the classroom with Dracula but then again, the love was still there. That was why he gave that order that would force me to let Ella attend school without missing any day. Just so they will k

My lips clamped shut as I was instantly paralyzed by the horrifying sight in front of me. I watched as black, pointed claws jutted from her fingers, and her skin appeared paler than usual while those bloody red eyes stared right into my soul.I found it hard to breathe as my heart kept hitting so hard inside my chest that I thought it was going to break out of my ribs. I couldn't believe my sight and wished it was a dream, but I knew so well that this was happening in reality and that it was possible that I was going to die now.I was petrified, and when I saw her walk closer, I knew it was the end of me. Laura was actually a demon, just as Ella had warned me, and now I guess it was too late to believe her. I just hope the alpha finds out earlier before she destroys this pack."Now you truly know who I am!" Her deep and scary voice echoed in my ears, shooting extra fright inside me as I nodded uncontrollably.I saw her let out a smirk before backing away from me. In a blink of an eye,

"Your father and foster brother will be here soon. We will be heading to the Lycan Kingdom as a special guest of honor." My mother added, and I exhaled gleefully, turning over to the mirror hanging beside my bed.As I gazed at my elegant appearance staring back at me, I couldn't hold back the cheesy smiles that went all over my face. In my head, I could imagine the Lycan prince standing behind me with his strong arms wrapped around my waist while I felt his hot breath glazing my neck."So, we are now special guests to the great Lycan king." I giggled, biting my lower lips softly as I blinked my eyes seductively, admiring how stunningly beautiful I was.My life was something close to perfect as the Alpha's daughter because everything I wanted was delivered to me on a platter of gold. I never lacked anything, as my parents were ready to do everything possible to fulfill all my wishes. I was 17 when I first saw Dracula, the Lycan prince. On that day, I accompanied my mother to answer an

"Me?? I make you complete when you are with me? How? When did it all begin? You never cared about me before, now? For three days after you told me about your curse, you didn't say anything else to me or act like I existed whenever you came to the class to teach." I whined, and he chuckled, still maintaining an intent stare at my lips as if he were searching for something in them."I was only torturing myself, thinking I could live without you," he mumbled, lowering his head a little before returning his gaze to me and sending those sweet smiles that made my eyes wet again.I glanced around, and everyone in the restaurant was peering at us as if we were some kind of aliens. I was sure they were still finding it hard to believe a slave like me was sitting with Dracula, or, rather, Jaden, the history teacher, as they all believed.It was also confusing to me because I didn't expect his love or affection. He was someone I was afraid to meet and dreaded his presence because I was expecting
