Chapter 21: "Dance with me."
Caelum’s pov.Few things can satisfy me.Among that list of things isn’t a night wasted.I’m discontent and this city reeks.I chortle at that because no wonder Ulric’s been here for so long. The bastard’s probably contributed to the stink for as long as he could, and he might be one of the major contributors.Ragnar’s response in my mind is a dry ~ha ha ha~, I shoot him a mental side glare, mainly because he’s been composed tonight at least. For one thing he’s stopped trying to order me around.His insistence that I go back to Sophia has faded, maybe all we needed was a ride. I couldn’t enjoy myself the way I planned to though. The clubs in this city, they reek.The bell above me chimes as I open the door and walk into the bar. It’s empty, and in its emptiness, I find peace.Only Seb’s here, currently backing me, always working.I sit on a stool and something in me squirms, in a single definitive wiggle.I try to ignore it but it moves again, setting some warmth behind my eyes and in

Chapter 22: "Please don't leave me."
Sophia’s pov.There’s a certain kind of lucidity that comes with the mornings. I feel the sun on my cheek and the soft silk of fabric on my back. The sunlight is filtering into the room in a shower of lazy golden rays.My head is pounding. That is the first thing I notice. There’s a certain kind of bang a hangover brings that this one doesn’t carry. This isn’t the kind of pounding a hangover brings to me. This is different.I feel clear-headed, I even feel like this is the clearest my head has been in days, but there’s a fuzziness in my head too.A pounding.My head is pounding, but it’s beating a steady recalcitrant beat. The sound of a low grow beside me makes me freeze.Memories from yesterday come rushing back and I feel every bone in my body go rigid as my eyes widen.I came to the club.I came to the club yesterday, to look for him, Caelum. A harsh swear leaves my lips at the realization of that because what the hell.I thought I said I wouldn't stoop that low. I actually came

Chapter 23: "Goddess of Sensuality."
Ulric’s pov.“Where is she right now?”The scowl that lines my face has me feeling like I'll burst a blood vessel. My apprehension is high.My anxiety is through the roof.I wouldn’t have cared much what the hell she’s doing with herself if it isn’t affecting me so damn much!Almost like he’s set to annoy me even more today, the doofus on the other end of the phone asks,“Are we talking about Mrs Sophia, Alpha Ulric? Or Mistress Violet?”I grit my teeth at the sound of that and wish I could reach over into the phone and grab this idiot, slam him into the nearest wall, and take his life.“Of course I'm asking about Sophia you fool! Have I ever asked you to keep an eye on Violet for me?”I have the worst set of people working for me.How could he think I was asking about Violet?Is it Violet who has pictures of her plastered all over the internet blogs? Pictures that show her dancing with someone else, at a shitty club downtown?“I’m… I'm sorry for the mistake Alpha. Keeping an eye on M

Chapter 24: "I'm so sorry for my wife's behavior."
Sophia’s pov.“She’s not angry anymore?”I shoot Caelum’s smirking friend a glare and I walk past him and down the hallway.My insides are quivering, so I head to Alora’s room and shut the door behind me, collapsing instead into the bean bag there.Shit.A multitude of emotions roll around inside me and I can barely process them because of how conflicted I feel.This morning is………. weird.Everything about last night, leading all the way up to this morning, everything about it was weird. Now that my head is clearer, I can remember I had no intention of visiting that club last night.Caelum wasn’t even there. Or Maybe he was and he’s just lying that he arrived after me.~Now why would he lie about something like that?~I let out a sound. A very disgruntled sound because I've just about had it with her always defending him.~I felt him arrive Sophia.I have a memory of my own too, and though it isn’t as long as yours I can certainly remember what happened last night. Raganar’s presence

Chapter 25: "I'll be back."
It feels like my head is burning.I look at the post again, fully taking Alora’s phone from her and glancing more at the screen because what?Alora’s voice comes out timid and rattled when she speaks.“He… he posted that last night, after the pictures came out. He’s gotten more than seven thousand likes on it. A lot of comments, and in all those comments, there are people pushing forward the narrative of you being an unfaithful woman.A… a dumb woman.Being a whore.”A cold feeling envelopes me and I let it go all the way to my toes, because no way. An unbelieving chuckle slips out of my mouth because there is no way.There’s no way Ulric did something like this. I go to the comments section and it’s just like Alora said. People are bashing me all around.Most of their profiles lead to blank profile pages, no content or posts about them, they’re literally blank entities on the internet, but they’ve decided they have a say in my life.Other people, werewolves, werecats, were leopards

Chapter 26: "You've provoked people, Sophia"
“Well, are you going to tell her?”I pause outside the door to my room and I hold my breath. Caelum’s low growl is what comes next and I can sense his displeasure before he even says it.“I said I would tell her when the time was right.”I barge in immediately and I cock an eyebrow at both of them as their heads snap to me, I ask,“You’d tell me what when the time is right?”Caleum’s gaze feels hot on me and it lingers for a while, it lingers for a long second, until he scoffs and looks away.“Bold of you to assume you were the one being spoken of.”I feel my anger peak immediately and I grit my teeth as I respond,“So there’s someone else in your life at the moment you spent the whole night with?”I don’t know why I say that, I just know it slips out of my mouth and it’s stupid the minute it does, I know it’s stupid and I wait for the jab, the snide retort that should come from Caelum at my half-wit statement,Instead, I see something else happen.Something strange.Caelum stares at

Chapter 27: "I have an empty garden."
“I don’t think you’ll get anything there Luna Sophia.Club Midnight has one of the shittiest websites ever.”Alora’s advice is doing nothing to soothe me and I find a growl rising at the back of my throat. I really don’t care about the website or if it’s shitty or not.What I want to get is information. Something must have happened at the Club last night.Caelum is refusing to say anything, and I can't force him to say it. His attitude in there threw me off, it would have been unreasonable to attack him with my words when he was being so gentle with his.I click on a link and immediately I am directed to a betting site. I curse under my breath because Alora is right, Club Midnight’s website is shit.This thing looks like it hasn’t been updated in ages.“I… I could help you help..”I whip my head to Alora and she snaps her mouth shut immediately.I’m still annoyed… I'm still annoyed at something. Maybe it’s the fact that she didn’t tell me about her knowing Caelum, or maybe it’s just b

Chapter 28: "All that's happening here is bigger than you."
Something goofy in my heart makes me shake my head and bite my lower lip as I pack the little things I have into a small bag.The same small bag I came here with.I can remember when I was unloading the contents of this bag, I had been filled with an undeniable sense of sadness. I tried to hide it then. Tried to power through it.Now I'm packing the bag again, and I can't deny, I don't feel so bad. Not as bad as I thought I would feel when I was packing up again.He… He said he has a garden. An empty garden.Somehow the thought of that has my stomach clenching and uncertain feelings running through my heart, because Caelum could have chosen to be a dick. Pardon the unseemingly word.But I am right. He could have chosen to hold the knowledge of what had happened last night over my head, knowledge I do not have and cannot have as long as I don't remember.Yet he didn’t do that.Instead, he tried to lure me…. Is trying to lure me, with the promise of an empty garden.~Well look who’s sm

Chapter 29: "I'm sorry for being so rude."
Sophia’s pov.“What does she mean by all that’s happening is bigger than me?”Caelum’s friend keeps his eyes on the road and doesn’t deem it fit to give me an answer. That only angers me, and in true Sophia fashion I turn away from him with only one thought in mind, I’ll find out for myself.Except I quickly realize I can't and that being dogheaded might lead to me wasting my time, so I decide not to.I still have to deal with the fallout of Ulric’s social media post, because I won't delude myself into thinking the whole mass of social media users are all pleased at seeing my photos on the internet.Even if the response was all good as Alora… and Caelum said, it’s all just a matter of time. I’m sure something will pop up.“If you won’t tell me what Alora means, can you at least tell me why Caleum’s face is blurred in every photo that was taken of us last night?”Caleum’s friend… no, Sebastien, his name is Sebastien. Sebastien turns to look at me this time and I evaluate the look he g
