~Amara~Patricia and I finished preparing dinner and we ate happily as we talked about random things.My Dad and Patricia talked to us and we promised them that we would try hard to stay away from trouble on campus.I just hoped that that bitch Sandra will stay away from us too because...it would be hard to keep the promise if she don't stop pestering us.We bid our parents goodnight and headed to our room to have a rest.I walked into my room and heaved a deep sigh. It felt so lively while having dinner and it reminded me of the old days when my father, mother and I would have dinner together.Heaving another deep sigh, I walked to the closet, picked up my nightgown and slid into it. I crawled under the warm sheets and curled myself into a ball.I tossed and turned on the bed as I tried to get some sleep.However…I couldn't bring myself to sleep. Nico's face was the only image that appeared whenever I closed my eyes.I was about to toss on the bed again when my phone on the bedside table

~Amara~Nicholas gritted his teeth when he heard my words. I was provoking him so that he would go to train with me. I just wanted Nico and Luke to be friends because I know they have never liked each other from the first day."Okay!"He said in a bold voice and stood up from the wooden chair that he was sitting on. He was wearing black pants and a loose shirt.My lips curved into a smile when I heard him respond since my plan had worked."What will you give me if I prove to you that I'm much better than Luke?"He asked with a raised eyebrow and the corner of his lips curved into a wicked smile. There was no doubt that whatever was going through his damn head was something…"That is a secret…"I winked at him and a deep frown settled on his face."Come on, we need to get going. I know Luke is waiting for us in the training field! I don't want to keep him waiting for that long."I informed Nicholas."Where are the two of you going?"Patricia asked us with creased eyebrows when we stepped foot

~Amara~Nicholas pulled off when he heard my words and more tears flowed from my eyes. What was wrong with him? Did it mean that he didn't want me the same way I wanted him? I couldn't help but wonder."It's okay if you don't…"My voice broke at the end of the statement and I wiped tears from my eyes using the back of my hand. I just wished all the strange feelings could stop so that I could get back to living a normal life."It's not that I don't want, Amara."Nico brushed the hair from my face, "Why are you pulling away then? You know what, just leave my room! I can handle it on my own."I roared and Nicholas looked surprised when he heard my words.I stood up from the cold floor with an aching body but Nico wrapped his hands around me so tightly from behind as though he was afraid that I would disappear into thin air."It's not that I don't want you, Amara.Is it just that…I don't know if indeed you want us to do it or if it's just the heat that is messing you up.I don't want you to reg

~Amara~A groan of annoyance escaped my lips when the siren noise of the alarm pierced through the quiet air.I wanted to sleep some more.However, I didn't want to miss classes because exams are around the corner. I can't afford to fail the exams because it's my last year on campus.Heaving a deep sigh,I climbed down from the bed,grabbed the towel from the closet and headed to the bathroom to take a quick shower.When I was done in the bathroom, I went back to my room and changed into black skinny jeans, a white shirt and white sneakers.I picked up my backpack and headed downstairs for breakfast.I was welcomed with a sweet aroma and my mouth watered. I headed straight to the kitchen to taste Patricia's delicious pancakes."Hmmm..that smells…"I choked on my words when my eyes fell on my father hugging Patricia so tightly from behind while joking around.The sight of it reminded me of old days when I was a little girl.Sometimes,I would walk to the room and found my mother and dad playing

~Amara~"It's because you're the one who came up with the fucking stupid challenge, Luke! You know pretty well that my father and your father are against it, but what did you do? You went against their words and I had to cover up for you when Patricia asked what happened to Nicholas!"I paused to catch my breath."What was the need for the two of you to fight? What did you gain from the fight besides bleeding and broken lips? Was it necessary to know who is stronger than the other?"I scolded Luke and he was quiet for a while."I know it was wrong, okay. I just wanted Nicholas to know that I'm better than him.I wanted to keep him in his place."Luke shrugged nonchalantly. His answer made me more furious and I fisted my hands."Why? Why would you want to prove that you're better than him? We have been training together all these years, Luke. I know you're among the best in our pack. You don't need to prove it to anyone."I tried to knock some sense into his head.I couldn't understand why L
