51.“Mother, why didn't you tell me Matilda was back?” Dominic asked the minute he got home. After school, he had looked for Selene everywhere, but couldn't find her. And just when he was about to walk out of the school gate and head to her place to explain things to her, Matilda pulled him away, so they could go get ice cream.While they were taking the ice cream, his thoughts were elsewhere and when Matilda realized he wasn't paying attention to her, she got angry and asked him to take her home. She knew quite well that it was because of Selene, but heck was she going to leave her man for someone else.Queen Bathsheba smiled. “She said she'd tell you herself. Oh, you've met her?” She asked.“Yes.” He answered.“How did you feel?” She asked excitedly.“I felt shocked because I wasn't expecting her to come this soon.” He sighed.“But she's here now and that's all that matters. Besides, her father said she'd be coming this week, so what's the shock about?” She chuckled and Dominic sigh

53.Selene appeared in Dominic's room and saw him sprawled on the bed, sleeping soundly. She chuckled when she saw his sleeping posture.“He must have had a hectic day,” She muttered and smiled. “He's cute. I feel like taking a picture,” She muttered again and moved closer, staring at him.Lying beside him was Bryce. Selene thought of how to make Dominic wake up without waking Bryce as well.She was about to touch him when something caught her attention. Bending to take a closer look, she saw something glowing on his forehead. Using her powers to move his hair to the back, she gasped.“The moon symbol… How did it get here?” She asked no one in particular and continued to stare at it. She placed her hand on her forehead and hers glowed as well.As the moon symbol glowed on her forehead, she felt a rush of energy in her veins. Her powers were calling out to her. She tried to draw them in from him but it didn't work.Dominic sensed a presence in the room and his eyes fluttered open. His

55.“Calm down, Matilda.” Yvonne cooed.“Don't tell me to calm down!” Matilda snapped at her. “She's trying to take him away from me, can't you see it?” She yelled.She couldn't believe that after spending some months overseas and wishing to come back and spend time with Dominic, he chose a nobody over her.“You know Dominic too well, Matilda. You're the one he likes. He's someone who keeps to his word and that's why he took Selene instead.” Daphne defended.“Today is special. This is the only day we could have actually spent some quality time together without being interrupted by parents. Why would he choose today of all days to spend time with that bitch?” She questioned with balled fists.Yvonne and Daphne sighed. They knew there was nothing they could do to stop Matilda from yelling, so they just let her vent out her anger.“I'll make sure she pays. Even if Dominic doesn't like her, I am sure she likes him and I won't sit down and watch her take Dominic away from me. I'm not going

57.THE NEXT DAY...Selene walked into the school. Her mood was gloomy as the discussion she had last night with Artemis and Aphrodite replayed in her head. How on Earth do they expect her to kill her love for him when he had become a huge part of her life?She couldn't bring herself to do that. she thought she would never fall in love. She thought her heart would open to no one and that was why she devoted her life as the moon goddess to helping others get their mates and the rest.Presently, she just realized that he was truly her mate and whatever had been happening wasn't because of her powers in him. She could collect her powers but those feelings would still be there. How was she going to handle all these? Falling in love wasn't the plan. Craving for his presence and touch wasn't the plan, either. Why didn't her heart listen to her? Why did it start beating for him? This was more like a forbidden kind of love stuff. She knew Zeus won't accept but she had no choice.Last night af

59.“Why do you want her expelled?” Mr. Jones asked, confusion and shock evident in his features.“She's misbehaving and needs to be thrown out of here. You cannot allow her to stay here when all she does is cause mayhem.” Matilda snapped.Mr. Jones sighed. “Do you have evidence of anything she must have done to warrant such punishment?” He questioned and she sighed.“No, but she—”“Ms. Russell, I can't expel her without valid reasons, so unless you have evidence of things she did that are against the school rules of conduct and warrants such punishment, please don't bring her case here again.” He said and continued with what he was doing.Matilda couldn't believe her ears. Did he just refuse to help her and all for what? Because of Selene? She frowned and walked out of the office. If it's evidence he wants, then it's evidence he'll get.***“What are you going to do now, Matilda?” Daphne asked after she called them into an empty classroom and narrated all that happened to them.Matil
