I rushed inside the main Gate, avoiding the stares of those who were already inside, scurrying my way to the elevator to reach the third floor.My heart beat accelerated just when the elevator door opened.More stares in my direction weighed me down.Of course, I don't look so presentable with dirt on my clothes but had I gone back home to change then New Alpha wouldn't hesitate to kick me out without an introduction.I noticed Sage standing among some of the guards, busy having a conversation.I approached her. "Hey, Sage.. I'm sorry I'm late.." I said quietly.She turned to me and her eyes traveled down my hoodie."What the hell?" She whispered, rather amused than shocked."I know I look horrible but I didn't have time to change" I sigh, glancing around the Hall that is not as crowded as the first floor."But how did it happen though?" She asked, grabbing my arm and leading me away from the Hall."A freak on the Bike did this!" I groaned, annoyed just at the mention of it.She snorted,

My eyes widened in pure horror, for a fraction of a second I almost let out a yelp but keeping myself calm and collected, I approached the boy."Hello Elsa" He greets politely.I blink, then like a strong wave of tsunami, relief along with a pinch of confusion washes over me.I must have heard him wrong earlier."Hello, when did you come in and who dropped you?" I asked, bending down to reach his level.Now looking at him from up close, there's some weird familiarity coming off him.I couldn't quite grasp on it.Have I seen him before?"When you were looking at your phone" He said, turning his attention back to Kiara who was glaring at him."He is bad..bad boy" Kiara says, pointing her small finger at the boy, her finger brushes against his white shirt and he instantly steps back as if tarnished with her touch which makes Kiara even more furious."You are bad!" She yells loudly, throwing the stuffed teddy on the floor and lunging towards him, grabbing him by the collar of his shirt."Kia

Zion Pov"Listen Zion, Respectfully you need to move the f-ck on" Sat on the chair opposite the study table, my friend slash Beta Sage goes on and on again about the same topic.Despite the fact that I have made it very clear not to talk about second chance mates, that it is a forbidden topic yet the brunette before me is too ignorant when it comes to my decisions."It's been like what…wait," Her brows drawl in a deep scowl as she continues,"Six years to be exact.Fate itself has given you another chance at love and you are adamant not to break your lonely miserable depressed shell for what reason?"I pinch the bridge of my nose, attempting not to let her words get to me.I had thought dealing with constant new projects and the marketing was exhausting but Sage happens to prove me wrong by taking the spot.Having to hear her talk non-stop about one topic is exhausting.How she is still speaking, which literally is her repeating the statements in different words is beyond my understandin

Drax POV"We don't have a favorite, son.That's a stupid thing to say.We love you both equally"Liars.Both my parents were liars.Clearly they have a favorite and it's Zion.Always and forever Zion.The best.The perfect.Always sugar coating their manipulation when it comes to confrontation, when it comes to acknowledge what I have been feeling.It's always stupid.My feelings and concerns were always labeled stupid.A rough chuckle leaves my lips, edging with so much pain that I, still, after years can't feel the other way.Can't let go of these emotions that pain me.The series of words that cut deep, scratching the years old wound and tonight, my dear Loving brother Zion added more to it.I don't care about my parents death?A laugh reverberated out of my chest, surprising me as well.I shook my head, staring far in the sky that was covered with countless stars, shining brightly."You might have lost them now Zion but I lost them years ago.I don't make a fuss out of it like you do.I don't

Elysia PovWe were walking for hours now, only getting deeper into the woods instead of getting out.I couldn't say anything to Drax because first, it's my fault that I threw his keys.Second, he looks a little too good and it's not healthy for me.The moment he stares at me, or speaks and does that flirty eye thing, a whole zoo of butterflies erupts in my stomach.Its weird and embarrassing.He is attractive, I won't deny that but the way I feel around him is something that scares me.I feel carefree unlike with every other men's presence.Even Zion, his presence makes me anxious and somewhat scared.The urge to hide from them is always strong but with this man, there's just something different.His electric blue eyes are soft, alluring and it's hard to not be lost in them.I shouldn't be feeling this way towards him.I don't even know him properly.I sigh, the exhaustion weighs down my bones and I stop by one of the huge trees, resting my palm against it for support.I look behind where Drax
