All Chapters of He Is Mine: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

Nora’s POV“I'm fine babe, don't worry about me.”I knew that was a lie. I have always known Dante’s moods better than he knows them himself. Maybe that’s the problem, because lately, I can’t figure out what’s wrong.It started small, his hand not finding mine as we walked across campus, his laugh sounding forced during movie night, and his lingering stares at nothing, like his mind was carved into somewhere else. His affection has reduced, and I’m left chasing what doesn't seem to exist? That afternoon, I met him by the lockers after class.“Hey,” I greeted, trying to smile as I slapped my bag shut.He gave a quick, tight nod and kept gliding his gaze over posters on the bulletin board, avoiding mine.“You okay?” I ventured, heart pinching.“Yeah.” “You sure? You’ve been… distant.”He swallowed and exhaled hard. “Busy.”“Okay,” I said, forcing calm. “Busy is fine. But hey, you are on the swim team, right? How is practice going?”He stiffened. "Fine."“Really? The coach said you we

Dante’s POVIt was almost midnight by the time I and Nora reached home.The night air was thick, too heavy with things unsaid, and my head had not stopped spinning since we left the lake. The image of Asher kissing that girl replayed in my mind like a cruel loop. His hands on her hips, her mouth open against his, it should not have bothered me this much, but it did. It bothered me like a splinter under skin, impossible to ignore no matter how small.Nora hadn't tried to say much since the incident. I’d grabbed her too roughly, pulled her away too fast. I’d seen the confusion in her eyes, the way she kept glancing sideways at me like she didn’t know who she was walking beside anymore.I did this.I knew that.I needed to fix it.Her apartment was quiet, warm, safe. The moment we stepped inside, she turned to say something, but I silenced her with a kiss. I did not want words. I didn’t trust mine.She responded slowly, her lips cautious against mine. But the longer I held her, the more

Dante's POVI wake up earlier than usual, I turned and shut off my alarm before it rang I stared at my dorm window. I stare at the ceiling for a long time, trying to make my body to move, to start the day, to forget about the previous day. But forgetting isn’t something that comes easy lately. Especially not with a certain dick tattooed into my memory. I groan and throw the blanket off, already mentally preparing for the day. I have classes back-to-back. That is on purpose. I rearranged my schedule last week, shifting everything around so that there was less chance I would run into him, Asher.Just thinking his name sends a shockwave through my body. It is just ridiculous. Infuriating. I splash cold water on my face and stare at my reflection in the mirror, trying to breathe, trying to center myself. "You're fine. You're normal. You're with Nora."I keep repeating it like a poem, hoping it will root deeper into my reality. I'm with Nora. She's beautiful. She's sweet. She's everything

Asher’s POV“Calm your balls! I'm almost done.” I said into the phone as I tossed it into my bag. Heaving a huge sigh of relief. I was stressed from a hectic day. Maybe next time I wouldn't join so much teams in the school.Lily was waiting for me outside the training hall, arms folded and eyes searching mine like she was trying to read something I had not written.The sun which was beginning to go down cast gold across her face, softening her features, but even the light could not be a distraction from the tension swirling between us.“Asher,” she said, her voice too even. “We need to talk.”I already knew what she was going to say. And I was already too tired to pretend.“Hey,” I murmured, pushing my hands into my jacket pockets and stepping past her toward the campus path.She followed, quickening her pace to stay by my side. “After the first date at the lake, you have just discarded me, is that what it is?”Oh goddess, feminine drama is the last thing I need right now. I shook my

Mateo's POVIt did not make sense. One day she was here, wrapped around Dante like ivy, and the next, poof. Gone. No long goodbye. No tearful farewell as I would expect. Just an empty space where Nora used to be. People whispered, of course. They always did. “Family emergency,” someone said. “Transfer,” another offered.But none of it sat right with me, maybe because I was not the kind to assume, but to get my facts right, no matter what. Nora was not the type to vanish without a trace. Not unless something serious had gone down.So, I started asking questions.I tried the girls from her dorm first. All I got were tight-lipped smiles and shrugs. Her roommate pretended to be asleep when I knocked, even though her lamp was clearly on. People were scared, or maybe they were protecting someone. Either way, it was obvious, someone here knew something, and they just weren't talking.I needed a new plan. And I needed it fast, I can't be left out on some juicy stories. After my lecture, I
