Semua Bab Aria's Legacy: The FiveFold Mate: Bab 1 - Bab 10

The next morning, I had a quick bath and put on a form-fitting black trouser and a denim jacket over a white T-shirt. After taking one last look at my reflection in the mirror, I rushed outside to go have breakfast downstairs. A few maids, all werewolves, curtsied when I walked past them... Something I still hadn't gotten used to even after a month of getting here. Being the mate of the Alpha's son did have its perks. When I got downstairs, I met Dad having breakfast at the dining table alongside Orion's father, Alpha Michael, and his mother, Luna Laria. My father, who had a well-trimmed beard, was the first to notice my presence and raised his head. "Ah, Aria." A warm smile stretched across his face as his gaze softened. "Good morning, darling. How was your night?" I smiled sheepishly before responding. "Good morning, Dad. My night was..." I paused, remembering the embarrassing incident with Orion. Ugh, someone bury me right now! "...Good. My night was good." I turned t

"Anyway, girl, we gotta go for that General Biology class. I don't want to be late." Elizabeth stood up and started packing her bag all of a sudden.I arched an eyebrow at her. "Late? We still have like... Ten minutes left." I protested.She ignored my remark and simply blurted. "Ten minutes which I don't want to spend gossiping about your mysterious new crush. Come on, let's go." My face heated up with a blush. Rude!I got up when it was obvious that Elizabeth would leave me behind without looking back. I followed grumpily beside her as I finally let myself stop thinking about Sylvain. ..General biology class proved to be longer than I expected. I sat beside Elizabeth in the large hall and occasionally glanced around. Orion was missing. After the class was over I stood up and voiced my concern to Elizabeth. "Orion didn't attend General Biology lectures today," I muttered as Liz jotted down something in a notebook. She raised her head to glance at me for merely a few seconds b

SYLVAIN***"New Orleans?" I repeated after raising my eyes away from the letter Ravenna, my confidant and only friend, dropped on the table. We were seated in a dimly lit room, which was also my office and meeting room. Ravenna, who had long, straight black hair, snow-white skin, and lips redder than blood, placed her palms on the table from across the other chair where she sat. She wore a black tight dress that emphasized her curves and reached her knees. "Yes, Lord Darius has a deal to seal with the resident werewolf Alpha there," Ravenna spoke in a silvery tone before smirking. "Come on, Sylvain. It's been a while since we went home. I miss New Orleans and we can't ignore Lord Darius's orders now, can we?"I sighed, resting my back on the chair I sat on. For decades I and Ravenna had been exploring the world, keeping our distance away from New Orleans and the clan. Most resident vampires of the New Orleans clan made it a habit to move from town to town or city to city once eve

ARIA *** Was this some kind of joke? Sylvain, the mysterious new guy from school, was the one who stepped down from the car. He wore a black jacket over a black T-shirt and black jean pants. He had a necklace on his neck shaped like a crescent moon, which I hadn't noticed the first time we met. "Don't you know you have to be more careful when walking on the road?" He suddenly asked, snapping me out of my trance. I blinked awkwardly before turning my gaze to his eyes. He looked at me with an odd mix of amusement and curiosity. My face heated up with embarrassment but I still managed to speak up. "And don't you know speeding on the road can get you in prison?" Sylvain arched an eyebrow and scoffed as he stepped closer to me. I wanted to step back, I wanted to turn away and run the heck out of there because of the growing embarrassment I felt. But I didn't. Instead, I stood there like a statue as Sylvain finally got to me. He stood tall, gazing down at me with an expressio

"The New Orleans vampire clan is gracing us with their presence." My father repeated before asking with an amused tone. "Hmm... What's the occasion?"Alpha Michael replied with a chuckle. "You'll find out once they arrive. But don't worry, the resident vampires of this city all abide by strict rules and don't mind mingling with other races."At that moment, I couldn't help thinking about Sylvain. If the guy truly was a vampire then could he possibly be attending this meeting? Crap, what could I possibly wear? What if I say or do something embarrassing or...?Hold up, why do I care so much?The mate bond! It had to be the stupid and confusing pull that I felt toward Sylvain. I knew the feeling of a mate bond all too well because I'd experienced it when I first met Orion. I couldn't be wrong but at the same time, I needed to be sure. Just then, a cough from Dad snapped me out of my thoughts. "Well, if you'll excuse me, I'll be immersing myself in your study room."Alpha Michael shook
