AthenaI woke up in an unfamiliar room and looked around. Then, when I saw Cameron's hand resting on my body and his face serene and asleep, I smiled. I stared at him, taking in his handsome features. He seemed so calm, and I wished things would remain like this."Oh shit!" I exclaimed. It was 6:30, and I could not leave the boys' dormitory because the staff members would have resumed their duties, and the boys were outside. I didn't want to start any rumors or speculations."Watching me sleep is sexy and creepy," Cameron stirred in his sleep and opened one eye. "I love it.""Why didn't you wake me up to leave last night? How am I going to leave the hostel now?" His hand went over to the nightstand beside him, and he checked his watch, then started laughing."We're stuck. We'll have to wait until the dormitory clears out.""It's all your fault! I wanted to leave last night, but you didn't let me go, and now we can't leave until class begins.""I don't mind," he said, trying to cuddle

I stared at my mom's face. She looked physically stressed and rubbed her temple while taking periodic deep breaths. She had called me to speak with me about Athena, and all her fears and criticisms about Athena were unfounded. The other time, I caught her hiding behind a pillar, watching me and Athena, and even though I had seen her, I pretended not to notice. She had reservations about Athena. Athena didn't mention it, but I could tell there was an energy shift when she talked with my dad versus when she had to speak with my mom. "I don't have a good feeling about her," Mom told me in a serious tone. "She looks weird, and why would she not want to be marked? What lame excuse has she been feeding you and your father?"I found my mom's dramatics amusing and chuckled. "She's not comfortable with it yet. We should give her time."But Mom wouldn't let up. "I don't like her. She seems like a problematic person who is hiding something big. Wake up, see what's happening, and don't be blind

AthenaThe only feeling I could register was being mastered and conquered. I felt like a weather-beaten roof that had crumbled and collapsed. My heart was bleeding, and my fears were strangling me. I couldn't even bear to look at Cameron. His back was against the wall, and his eyes were fixed on some point behind me. There was irritation and disinterest in his looks now. I couldn't dare to end things like this."Cameron, please," I said, rushing to his side. All I could feel now was regret for not telling him the truth from the onset and saving myself from this heart-wrenching heartbreak. He hated me now, and I feared he would hate me even more than he loved me. I could taste the resentment. I wanted him to say something, to lash out at me. He deserved to and had every right, but he remained silent. Mustering courage, I moved forward and reached out a hand to touch his arm, but before I could make contact, he flinched, and his eyes snapped toward me with a warning. "Cameron, please

AthenaThe next few days were a blur of sorrow and nothingness. I struggled to remain alive and succumbed to the sadness that consumed me. I hated myself. I wished my life was over. There was nothing positive to look out for in this bleakness. My parents were concerned, but I chose isolation, finding people's words and concerns irritating. My eyes were swollen from crying, and my bed was bearing the brunt of this depression. I didn't leave it; if the poor bed could speak, it would be screaming n. I knew I would be expelled from school; that was a no-brainer. My dad and mom tried to reach out to me. Even my uncles, Zeke and Ziah, came over with their wives, but I didn't want to see anyone.Caleb had sacrificed to travel back with me, but he shouldn't have bothered because his presence didn't lift my spirits. The whole family was angry with Alex for exposing my secret, but I knew it was for the best. Cameron would be free now, and it was useless holding him back. I heard my mom knoc

Cameron My gaze never left Athena. She was too startled by my bold declaration, and even though I was more uncertain than ever about what I was doing, and my dad was caught off guard by my words, I couldn’t help it. A part of me knew I was digging my grave, and I liked life too much to lose it. But at the same time, seeing Athena roused my deep affection and attachment for her. It wasn’t just about lust; there was more to my feelings. I wanted to move closer, to touch her. My pulse raced, and I felt a hyper-awareness of being close to her. Only she could cause me this mental fuzziness and the feeling of possessing her and keeping her safe.Her father looked confused. I heard his quick intake of breath. Athena stood tongue-tied, and shock flew through her mother’s eyes. I could tell my father was irritated.“What is wrong with you?” he whispered harshly, but I was too far gone. Athena looked different, skinnier than when I last saw her. She looked like someone who had been through a
