Micah's PovI heard a shriek and raised my head from where it had been lying against my knees. The street was mostly deserted. I stared across the road and could make out two people struggling against each other on the sidewalk. Upon closer inspection, I noticed it was Maya and the fuckwit called Daniel.What were they doing here? I glowered at the sight of them. They seemed to be having a lovers’ quarrel. He did brag to me about how he was her mate and stuff. He was standing so close to her, his entire body attuned to her. In return, her eyes widened and she seemed to be fighting the urge to breathe. Whatever was going on between them, I had seen enough of it. I couldn’t take anymore. I had come here to hide away from the world and clear my head, but apparently, it seemed I couldn’t go anywhere with Maya finding a way to fuck with my head. Just like she was doing now.I was pissed and annoyed. I stumped out my cigarette and finished the last of my drink. I stood up on slightly shaky

Maya's PovMy first class of the day whiffed by, but all I could think about was the gift box in my bag. It intrigued me. The bell rang but I remained rooted to my seat. While everyone scrambled to get to their next class, I pulled the box out of my bag and pried it open, taking care not to rip the ribbon.I gasped at what I saw lying inside the box. It was a necklace, with my name on it. The necklace was delicate with tiny strands, resting within the soft velvet box. A gift like this had to be expensive. And then, the intricate cut and personalized design meant he had put some thought into the gift.I thought about the person who had broken into my locker to leave such a thoughtful gift for me. It was a glaring contrast from the Micah I knew. The Micah I knew wasn’t one for thoughtful gestures. He was mean and crude and entitled. Accepting his gift meant I forgave him for everything he had done to me. I didn’t think I was ready to forgive him anytime soon.Steeling my resolve, I shut

Maya's Pov“This is bad Maya,” Daniel was saying. “Not only are you caught up in this badly scripted teen drama with the likes of her, but you’re also trending because of it.”“What should I have done? Let her continue to insult me? Do you know how aggravating that is?”“I can’t even pretend to understand how much you’ve had to suffer at the hands of crystal high’s ruling bunch. Which is why I am totally not judging,” Lydia reassured me and I was grateful for it. I looked at Daniel. I knew he meant well, but he had no idea what it felt like to be treated so condescendingly.Who cared if I was trending online? I had stood up to my bully and to me, that was all that mattered.“I’m sorry Maya,” Daniel sighed, falling into step next to me.“It’s fine,” I took his hand in mine, giving it a reassuring squeeze. “I know you care about what could happen to me because of this, but I am not afraid of Juliet or her minions.”“How about Micah?” Lydia asked, raising a brow. “You know he would never

Micah PovThe next day was a public holiday. It meant school was closed down. No lectures. No fucking teachers. I woke up later than usual and ran for at least an hour on the treadmill. After that, I made myself a sandwich in the kitchen. Nathan was running an errand for father. He came into the house, just as I was polishing off the last of my sandwich.“Hey buddy,” he offered me a small wave.“Yo,” I gave him a small nod.“Your dad called. He wants me to get a file from his office. It’ll only be for a minute and then, I’ll be out of your hair.”“Knock yourself out.”“So, no school today huh?”“Nope.”“And how are you holding up with your parents gone?”“Good.”Nathan nodded like I had given him a profound answer. He was uncomfortable. I could tell he didn’t know what else to do with me. I decided to put him out of his misery.“Go ahead man. I’ll be out of here soon anyway.”“Oh. You got plans?”“Nothing much. Just going to see my girlfriend. It’s been a while since we fucked.”Natha

Daniel's PovI could feel my inner wolf leaping for joy, pleased with Maya had treated Micah. She hadn’t cared that I had been there to witness all of it. And then, Micah. I fought the urge to laugh as I remembered the pain in his eyes, how desperately he had tried to save face in front of me. I shook my head and put him out of my mind.I entered Maya’s kitchen. She was in there, staring out the kitchen window, looking forlorn. I hated that look on her face. I needed to do something to wipe it off.“Maya?” I touched her shoulder and she jumped, startled. I held my hands up in an apology.“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to scare you.”“It’s fine,” she rasped, smiling at me. I stared at the table and was pleased to see that she already had my flowers sitting prettily in a huge vase. It gave me the courage to ask what I had been dying to ask from the moment I showed up here.“Maya?” I swallowed deeply.“Yes Daniel?” she was gazing at me curiously.“Will you go on a date with me? Right now?”“R
