(Alex’s POV)—————The principal’s office was eerily quiet.Only the ticking of the old clock on the wall filled the suffocating silence.Grey sat across from me, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles had long since turned white. Every few seconds his foot tapped impatiently against the floor, the barely restrained rage radiating from every inch of him as he glared at me.As for me… My jaw still throbbed from his punch. But I didn’t care.Henry was missing. Nothing else mattered. I was just itching to get out of here so I can finally go look for him. Did he perhaps go back to the pack house hoping I was there? No… if he did then the warriors would have notified me.The Principal, or rather, my Uncle Gabriel soon came inside and sat behind his desk with his fingers interlocked beneath his chin, his usually composed expression unusually grave.He was my father’s younger brother, turning thirty-one this year if I am not wrong.“I

(Alex’s POV)—————For two days… I stayed away and temporarily lived in my condo in the city. It was the hardest thing I had ever done.Every instinct inside me screamed to go back. To see Henry. To make sure he was eating properly. To wrap my arms around him and remind him that he wasn’t alone.But I didn’t. When he looked me straight in the eyes…and told me “No.” I knew he needed space.I never thought our relationship would spread like wildfire. The least I wanted was for him to get hurt.Jessica was just too angry when I broke up with her that she acted impulsively just to get back at me. I never meant for Henry to be affected.When I saw everyone teasing him, I wanted to sew their mouths shut and get rid of them.It was almost the 20th century and yet their heads are still wrapped up on the idea that two men can’t be together, like how fucking stupid is that.The Moongoddess would have never let me meet Henry if we aren’t meant to be tog

The rest of the week felt like I was in hell. I tried to be optimistic, to not think about negative things just like what my friend said, but I couldn’t help but be affected.Especially since my brother is still not talking to me.And as for Alex, weirdly enough, he hasn’t shown up yet. Did he finally get tired of me? Did he finally realize that he won’t benefit from being with me?Right. That must be it, we are from two opposite worlds anyway. He is this creature that turns into a wolf, so it would only be right for him to eventually be with someone the same as him.Sigh. I still can wrap up my head on that fact, but I guess, the fantasy movies I always watched paid off. Because the truth that someone like him really exists isn’t too disturbing to me anymore. I wonder if vampires exist as well. Like in the movie Twilight. Alas. My thoughts are wandering again. I should get some fresh air.I got up from bed and opened the door. I was about to go out but then I saw Grey, he stopped

(Henry’s POV)—————Jessica crossed her arms and tilted her head as she stared at me with a condescending look.Her smile was sharp. Cruel. Victorious. Like she had finally found the perfect weapon against me.“Well, it’s good to be back, doesn’t it?” she said in a sickening sweet voice.Nobody answered.Casper immediately stood up, glaring at her.“Go away, Jessica.”“Aww.” She placed a hand dramatically over her chest. “Such hostility.”“You started the rumors about Henry.”“Rumors?” She laughed.The sound scraped against my nerves.“If they were rumors, then why hasn’t Alex denied them?”Nobody spoke.Jessica’s eyes slowly drifted toward me.“Interesting, isn’t it?”My stomach tightened.She took a step closer.“You disappear for three days and now you are back.”Another step.“Alex disappeared for days as well and suddenly he is also back.”Another.“That’s not a coincidence at all. I say you tricked and seduced him, didn't you? Even went as far as to fucking up his position as ca

(Henry’s POV)I am currently walking to school because Grey apparently left me. He is probably still mad. I tried talking to him but he wouldn’t budge at all.Sigh.Eventually I arrived at school.The moment I stepped through the school gates… I instantly knew something was wrong.At first, I couldn’t figure out why. Students were staring. Not the normal stare. This was different. Everywhere I looked, people were whispering.A group of girls sitting near the fountain immediately lowered their voices when they noticed me looking.Two boys near the bike racks glanced at me. Then at each other. Then they started whispering again, snickering.My steps slowed.A strange feeling settled in my stomach.What is going on?Then I heard it. As I passed three girls whispering to each other.“…that’s him.”My heart skipped.“The one dating Alex.”Another voice answered.“No way.”“I’m serious.”“I heard they’re already livin

(Henry’s POV) ————— I feel like this is the most unappetizing breakfast I have ever had my entire life. Not because the food was bad. But because Alex was sitting beside me. Don’t get me wrong, if this was before, I would have been overjoyed to have him eating with us. It’s just that… I didn’t know who he was anymore. Mom sat across from me, and Grey sat beside her. On the table were the plates of eggs, toast, bacon, and freshly brewed coffee. Everything looked normal, on the surface but if you looked closely at us right now, it was everything but normal. My fingers unconsciously curled around my fork. I was sweating a little, because even with the hot day, Alex made me wear it, so that my mom and Grey wouldn’t see the bruise on my wrist. “Keep it on.” That was what Alex had told me before we came downstairs. So I did. I didn’t have the courage to argue. Especially after what happened. Across from me, Grey was glaring at Alex. The tension was so thick that
