Lahat ng Kabanata ng Playing With My Stepbrother Is A Crime : Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

MAYA The most important thing on my mind is not the fact that I embarrassed myself in front of the pack members today and almost exposed my secret, but the fact that I will start my detention. It's just two weeks, and if I am very careful and Ethan agrees to keep my secret, mum and David won't ever have to find out. As soon as the classes are done, I throw my bag over my shoulder and hurry to the supernatural library. I turn around to see Natalie and Grace standing behind me. They are sulking and glaring at me, as if it's by my doing that we are here. I knock on the small door by the side of the old brick building, and Miss Waters steps out. “Good afternoon, girls.” She smiles as a bunch of keys jingles in her hands. We walk to the door of the library, and she inserts the key, which makes the lock system click a few times, before giving way. “There you go,” she enters the room. This supernatural library is not open to everyone in the school. For one, the humans among us are f

MAYA Apart from being the youngest Alpha ever, and competing with my stepbrother for the spot of the top athlete of moonrise academy, there is nothing else out there to tell me who he is. It's like no one wants to write or talk about him in Storm ridge. Each day I see him in detention, I try to strike a conversation with him, but he barely speaks back to me. Natalie and Grace are scared of him, so they let me be for the meantime. He is rolling up some ancient maps, and putting them into their glass cases. “Have you heard of the vampire king Draco?” I ask casually. “Yes, princess, what about him?” He drags his voice to show that he doesn't want to talk to me. Princess? That's his obnoxious nickname for me. Like Ethan who calls me monkey. “I don't like that you call me princess,” I huff. “But anyway, Draco was a dread to our people, and my mother used to tell me scary stories about him when I was a little girl. To keep me good, you know.” “I wouldn't know, princess. I never had

MAYA “Oh, no!” I let out an incredulous laughter, because I know what my mother is telling me cannot be the truth. We have been in storm ridge for less than a year and she wants to leave me alone with this asshole for two months?! Before anyone could utter another word, I went into the pitiable room that I share with Ethan, then I dump all my clothes and important stuff in my suitcase. I drag it downstairs and David gives a big eye roll when he sees me. “Okay, Sarah. This one is up to you.” My mum heaves and places her hands akimbo. “ What do you think that you are doing, Maya?!” “Leaving with you, what does it look like?” I retort. “Has this been your plan from the beginning?! You brought me here, pretend for ten months and then abandon me with someone I barely know?!” “Maya, that someone happens to be your stepbrother! Who said anything about abandoning you? I am going to be back in a little while?” “Mum! Two months is not a little while!” My eyes swells with tears. “You p

ETHAN She hasn't spoken to me for three days, and I would be the worst liar in the world to say that it doesn't bother me. I have to pretend because even though I yearn for her, I know it's better for both of us to stay away from each other…I'm laying on the couch, the television turned on and a bottle of beer on the ground beside me. I'm not concentrating on the TV because I am staring at a picture of Maya that I took on my phone a few months ago. She is asleep in her bed, her crazy hair almost taking up most of her face, but she still looks so gorgeous. I zoom the picture and lightly touch her perfect face. This is torture, it's getting harder by the day…I hear the bedroom door open, and I immediately put my phone away and shut my eyes, like I'm deep in sleep. I even add a little snoring to make it believable. She comes downstairs, rubbing her eyes and yawning. She stops once she notices me, and I hold my breath. She walks over to the television and turns it off, then grab

MAYA Standing up and walking out of the class is like having a walk of shame, and naked too. I hear Victoria and her friends laughing, and I don't need a soothsayer to tell me that I am what is humoring them. It's never for good reasons whenever someone is summoned by Miss Waters, the dean of the supernatural faculty. I take out my phone and try to call my mother for help, but like usual, she is not picking up the damn phone! I sigh with frustration, before calling Ethan. He answers almost immediately. “Yes, monkey.” He heaves. “Miss Waters has summoned me to her office!” I speak quickly into the phone, with my hand cupping my mouth. “What?! Did you tell anyone your secret?!” “Huh? No! What do I do if she asks if I have gotten my wolf?” “This is nuts, I'm coming to you. Right after I take permission from the coach.” “What if you don't get to her office in time?” “I'll be on time, monkey. Just… hold on.” He ends the call. I'm shaking terribly from fear, but I slip my hand
