Alexei’s POV I was on my way to pick up Novel. It was her last exam, and I wanted to take her somewhere special to unwind. When I arrived at the school, I considered calling her, but I decided to surprise her instead. I hadn't walked far when I spotted her. She was talking to Emilia. I instinctively tried to reach for her through a mind-link, but I caught myself, she was still new to the pack, and I hadn't ascended to Alpha yet. The bond wasn't fully open. Suddenly, a sharp, agonizing pain pierced my chest, like a silver blade driven into my heart. My knees buckled, and I nearly hit the pavement. “Mate” my wolf roared inside my head. I looked up and saw her. Novel was collapsing. I moved faster than humanly possible, catching her just before she hit the ground. "Novel" I barked, but she didn't answer. My wolf was pacing frantically behind my ribs, restless and snarling at the sight of her in pain. She looked like she was fighting an invisible demon. Her eyes had rolled back, and he

Novel's POV I couldn’t sleep because my mind kept wandering back to what happened at the lake. I could still feel his lips on me; his touch still lingered on my body, and my body needed more. But first, I needed to go down those stairs to the dining room. I didn’t think I could do it. How would I face him?“Hmmm.” I took a deep breath, as to whether I anticipated going down or not.“Hi,” I practiced. Or maybe I should just lie and say I had caught a fever? But I immediately remembered that look in his eyes when we were in the hospital.“Hey.” Then I would look down shyly.“Argh! That feels cringe.” Or maybe I should become mute for the rest of the day. I was still lying on my bed in thought when a knock came at the door, causing me to panic. I roamed around my room, anxious.“Novel.” I heard my name and I knew who it was.“What should I do?” I whispered to myself.“If you don’t open—”I opened the door before he could finish. “Hey,” I drawled. I didn't know what he was thinking, but

Novel's POV I was enjoying the date until I received a notification on my phone. I regretted checking it immediately.“You should come home.” My face paled when I saw the message. I knew who it was from, but I tried to ignore it. When I entered the car, my mind raced and fear clawed upward. The air in the car felt thin, but suddenly, I felt his hand on mine. It anchored me. I closed my eyes, trying to compose myself; I didn't want him to think I hadn't enjoyed the date.When we arrived at the house, I waved him goodbye and hurried up to my room. I had planned to invite him in tonight, but now, I just wanted to soak myself in the bathtub and disappear. I sat on the edge of the bed to remove my heels when I heard the song "Summertime Sadness" play. It was my ringtone. I answered without looking, a mistake I realized the second I heard the voice.“Hey,” she said from the other end. I didn't need to check the ID to know who it was; that voice was hauntingly permanent, never changing.“Ar

Novel's POV I was still sitting in shock after he said, “Next time when I ask you to be my girlfriend, don't forget.” I tried to remember what happened last night after the call, but I just couldn't bring myself to remember. I decided to ask him again. I was standing at his door ready to knock when I heard his personal assistant, I think.“The Council is holding a meeting. It’s twelve days until the full moon.”What full moon? I thought. I didn't think I should be standing there because they were saying something important, so I left.I returned to my room still looking confused. This was the first time this drug had actually worked. I usually remembered things after a while, but I just couldn't think of anything. I walked sluggishly to the bathroom. As the water flowed over my body, I thought I would remember, but nothing came. I felt so sad that I couldn't remember.When I was done bathing, I put on a blue gown and tied my hair into a ponytail. What got me angry about the whole fo

Novel's POV It had been two days since I left Alexei's house. I missed my time there; it was fun, and I got to spend quality time with him, even if he was always busy.I was browsing through my phone when I came across an article. The title read: The Human Animals.“What a funny title,” I laughed, but my curiosity made me click anyway. It featured a picture of a creature that looked half-wolf and half-human.“Interesting,” I said to myself as I read the text:“We live with them. They can be your friend, your colleague, or even your lover. But they don't just have lovers; they have mates.”“A mate,” I murmured. I knew this was purely fiction, but I couldn’t help but be invested.“They can turn into wolves and humans. Their world is connected to ours; we pass through their world but we don't see it because it has a barrier. But I have seen it.”“How did he see it if it has a barrier?” I laughed. Seriously, who lets people write these things? Still, I needed to read to the end.“My love
