CHAPTER 21THE THINGS I PRETEND NOT TO FEELCALLIE As I showered that morning, I was all smiles. I mean, who wouldn't smile if they just had one of the two hottest guys in school in their bed. And being served breakfast in bed? Luca could never!I prepared for class, gathered my books into my bag while humming a song to myself. When I had finally gotten all I needed for that day, I stepped out of my dorm room. I was just a few steps out of my dorm building when my insides stalled at the smell of a familiar scent. I raised my head to see Matteo leaned against a tree like he’d walked straight out of a damn commercial. His arms were crossed, hair messy in that intentional way and expression unreadable. Students passing by kept stealing glances at him, but he didn’t seem to care. His eyes were locked on me watching my every step and I descended to meet him.Great. My life was turning into a telenovela with fangs and muscles.I walked down slowly, tightening my grip on my bag. “Matteo?

CHAPTER 22THE GHOST I NEVER WANTED TO SEE AGAINMARCOThe moment I stepped out of Callie’s dorm, the smile on my face shifted into something darker. When I got the call from one of my bartenders, I could hear the panic in his voice when he said someone was demanding to see me and they were refusing to leave. Even when I told him to tell them to come another time. It's been a while I've heard such fear and dread in someone's voice before and my mind was leading me somewhere, to something I didn't want to believe. I tried to keep myself calm on the drive there and tried not to jump into conclusions. But the moment I pulled up at the bar, I began to jump into the conclusion I said I wasn't going to jump to. The CLOSED sign was hanging in the window.At 11am in the morning?My bar was open 24 hours a day and we had patrons every hour of the day, so it was really abnormal to have the closed sign up at 11 in the morning. I parked slowly, heart banging in my chest. The wolf in me growl

CHAPTER 23ONE NIGHT… DOUBLE DRAMACALLIEI stared at my phone's screen, the phone trembling in my hand like the phone had suddenly turned to lava. Why was my mum calling?When the phone stopped ringing, I almost breathed out in relief, but it began to ring again, and this time, I couldn't just watch the phone ring. With a deep breath, I swiped my thumb across the screen and placed the phone to my ear. “Callista Mason!” I squinted my eyes from the sting her voice bore. It was bad enough that she was calling after a long time, and now she's calling my full name? Oh God! “Hi, mum. I didn't expect to see your call,” I managed, trying to keep the tremble away from my voice and keep it light. “Of course, since you've decided to be the prodigal daughter and abandon home.” Her tone stung more than usual, and even more when I heard a snicker in the background. “Yeah, I miss you too mum,” I replied sacarstically and she muttered something about Stella being more of her daughter than her

CHAPTER 24UNLUCKY CHARMI thought I was free of Stella. At least, she had stayed out of my sight for weeks. I didn't think she'd still be a lingering shadow. “Hey Callie,” Sienna waved, that smile still on her face, and I waved back, forcing a smile on. If it was just Sienna, I wouldn't have to force a smile on. I had completely forgotten she and Stella were still friends. What a great night this turned out to be….Stella and Sienna didn’t wait for an invitation, they joined us at the table. Sienna sitting beside me and Stella finding her way to Santiago's side.“Oh my gosh, we’ll just sit with you guys,” Stella chirped, squeezing herself shamelessly beside Santiago, practically pressing her shoulder to his.The energy at the table shifted instantly, like Stella brought with her this negative energy that needed to be expelled. Santiago had a frown on his face, Marco still had his signature soft smile and Matteo looked like his moment of the century was interrupted. Stella leaned i

CHAPTER 25THE DOOR THAT CLOSEDMARCOMy eyes linger round the restaurant, boredom rolling my eyebrows as I stared at things that didn't interest me. The only interesting thing walked her ass into the bathroom like fifteen minutes ago and was yet to come back. Callie had been gone for too long.It was weird and completely unusual. I knew it, Santiago knew it and even Matteo, who pretended to be absorbed in the phone he wasn’t scrolling, kept glancing toward the hallway leading to the bathrooms.Stella had already strutted back to the table and resumed acting like she owned the oxygen in the building, flailing herself shamelessly all over Santiago. Sienna tried to talk to her, but the girl was too busy being an unwanted attention to even mind the other girl. I heard Sienna whisper a few times about wondering what magical dump Callie was taking that was taking her the whole night. I almost chuckled. Until finally, Santiago cleared his throat and asked the question on everybody's mind

CHAPTER 26CALLIETIES THAT TETHERAnd just like that, a night I could call one of the best in my life was completely ruined. I didn’t remember leaving the table, I didn’t even remember the neon lights, or the excitement from the games we played. All I remembered was Stella’s voice, cutting through every fibre of my flesh and digging where it hurts the most..My chest caved in as my breath became laboured. And the tears, God, the tears came like a flood I couldn’t hold back. I walked fast, then faster, until I started running, wiping at my face like that could stop anything.It didn’t. If at all, it only made it worse.“I hate her so much. I fucking hate her so much!” I said under my breath, forcing the words to come out through gritted teeth.Every corner I turned and every step I took, just felt like I was falling apart piece by piece. I didn't even stop to get into a cab, I was running all the way to my dorm.“Why can’t she just leave me alone?” I whispered to no one as I ran. “Wh

CHAPTER 27MARCO, MATTEO, SANTIAGO AND TANGLED SHEETS You'll think taking three men at once is the most slutty thing to do until you're actually the main character. It was everything sinful and pleasure. I moved my lips against Marco's, plunging my fingers into his hair to keep him there. His tongue glided against mine as Matteo pressed into me from behind, trailing kisses of his own down my neck. And Santiago? He knelt beneath me, widening my legs to eat me out like it was the most delicious piece of cake.“Hmmmm,” I moaned into Marco’s mouth, his skull suffering the tug from my hands. Like they had one mind, they all pulled away at once, their irises boring hole into my skin. “Hermosa, you'll need a safe word for what's about to happen,” Santiago warned, his lips glistening with my pussy juices. “I doubt. Not even a safe word would save you from us,” Marco said, a smirk growing on his face as Matteo placed yet another kiss on the nape of my neck from behind me. I held Marco’s

CHAPTER 28MARCOTHE CHOICE THAT COULD BREAK ME“What the hell is that?” I groaned in my head, my eyebrows dipping as the relentless vibration continued. I opened my eyes just a little, enough for me to see where the vibration was coming from. My phone. At first, it didn’t register as mine, my brain was still floating somewhere between sleep and the warm tangle of limbs around me. Callie curled somehow in between us, Santiago’s arm thrown lazily across her waist, Matteo’s leg somehow over mine. Everything smelled like sweat, perfume, and the kind of peace I hadn’t tasted in years. It went silent, then the phone rang again., louder this time.Fucking annoying…My arm fumbled over the sheets but didn’t land on anything. That’s when I realized the sound was coming from the floor, right beneath my side of the bed.“Ugh… whose stupid phone is that?” Santiago groaned into the pillow, not bothering to move from where he laid.“Yours,” Matteo muttered without even lifting his head. “It’s a

CHAPTER 29THE MORNING AFTERCALLIE “What the hell was that?” Matteo's voice slipped into my ears as I stared at the closed door. That was really strange. “Something very strange. Who knows what's wrong with him,” Santiago said in his usual calm tone. I turned to Santiago and he bit his lips while staring at my bare skin. “Get your minds out the gutter, Dela-cruz—”“Huh… which?” Marco cut in, and I rolled my eyes, forgetting they both bore the same name. “The perpetrator knows himself,” I smirked, holding his gaze. I yelped when he pulled me into him like I weighed nothing and planted kisses all over my face. I giggled as I inhaled the scent that filled my nostrils. The room still smelled like them—like cedar, warm spice, and the faintest trace of Marco’s cologne clinging to the sheets. “Let me go! You're not getting any this morning.”“You sure about that?” Matteo teased, leaning into me from behind. “I'm so sore, I don't think I can take any more,” I whined as Santiago kept p

CHAPTER 30MARCOFRACTURE LINEThe bar was loud tonight. The bass was thumping hard, lights flickering red and violet across sweaty faces, clubbers shouting and singing along to the songs, but none of it could drown out the noise in my head.My father's voice kept ringing in my head, his threats sleeping into the fibres of my bone every minute. Or that sick laugh he laughed when he noticed I was horrified by his findings. I hated the fact that he was back to living in my head. I moved mechanically, grabbing bottles, pouring drinks and sliding glasses across the counter. My muscles remembered the motions even though my mind was miles away.After my father visited my bar, some of my workers refused to come back and most of them always helped me here at the club. But now, I was almost manning the whole thing. “Two whiskey sours,” someone shouted, sliding into a bar stool and I nodded. My hands were steady as I poured the drink, but my heart was not. Each time the video looped in my
