Brielle’s POV“Please, can I just have my glasses back?” I pleaded, my voice cracking as I hovered on the verge of tears.“Not until you open those eyes.”“Why?” I asked softly. I was trying so hard not to let my weakness show, even though I was being pushed to my absolute limit. I’d had enough today; all I needed was a moment of peace, some rest from all of this... bullshit!“Open your eyes, Brielle. That’s all you need to do,” he said, his voice sounding a bit further away now.I bit my lower lip, fear coursing through me. My heart pounded against my ribs, adrenaline pumping through my veins like a wild current. I tried to steady myself, whispering a silent reminder that whatever happened next, I would be fine.I had never seen a man naked before, and this was the second time in one day that I had been forced into such close proximity with a guy. It seemed Briarwood Academy was determined to give me more "experience" in a single afternoon than I had gathered in my entire life.“C’mo

Brielle’s POVI heaved a sigh as the maid’s footsteps faded, finally turning the key in the lock.Pushing the door open, I struggled with my heavy suitcases, keeping my head down. I didn't want to be impressed. I was used to the cramped, modest life Camelia and I shared, and I had already decided that no matter how fancy this place was, it wouldn't feel like home.But as I finally stepped inside and looked up, the air left my lungs. My jaw dropped in spite of myself.“Wow,” I whispered, the word escaping before I could catch it.The room was a magnificent explosion of blush, cream, and rose gold—a literal Barbie world brought to life with a sophisticated, modern edge.In the center sat a sprawling king-sized bed with a headboard of tufted pink velvet that reached toward the ceiling. It was piled high with silk pillows and a faux-fur throw that looked soft enough to sink into and never return.Dangling directly above the bed was a chandelier that looked like it belonged in a fairy tale

Brielle's POV “Brielle?” He snapped his fingers right in front of my face. I blinked, my eyes opening fully as I let out a long, heavy breath, staring straight at him. I swallowed hard, the cold truth hitting me instantly. Whatever had just happened with the elevator breaking down, the rubble, and that wet, desperate kiss—it was all nothing but a mere hallucination. Again! I was seriously starting to lose my mind. These weird, vivid daydreams were exactly what I needed to talk about with Camiella, but none of that was possible now thanks to that witch downstairs. Katherine was always finding a way to get right on my nerves. And she really had the nerve to stand there and tell me she’s my mother? Seriously? For someone who packed her bags and abandoned me when I needed a parent the most, she had to be the biggest joke of the twenty-first century. Jayden made a move to follow me straight into my bedroom, but I stopped dead in my tracks, turning around on my heel to block the door

Brielle’s POV Just as we watched the almighty queen bee get slapped by her mafia father, we all adjusted our positions, eager to see what would happen next. “Sire,” the Dean muttered, bowing his head and swallowing hard. I watched Professor Lucian’s gaze lock onto Mr. Cole's. The cold glance they exchanged was anything but friendly. They looked exactly like two people who were long-standing, bitter enemies. “Father?” Alice choked out in total surprise, her hand still pressed against her burning cheek. Her minions immediately detached themselves quickly, each taking a step backward to blend into the line of boys. No one wanted to be anywhere near her. “I’m no father to a fool!” he reprimanded her fiercely, not even trying to hide his rage. That was when the pieces finally clicked, and it dawned on me why Alice’s father had reacted so violently. If I remember correctly, Mr. Cole was currently running as a candidate for the next President of the United States. A viral video of his

Brielle's POVThe man from last night, the stranger who bandaged my wounds, stood against Alice for my sake, now standing at the front of my classroom.As my---Professor?“Miss Parkman,” his deep voice rolled through the air again. “Are you waiting for an invitation, or would you like to sit?”My legs refused to move. Students giggled, whispering behind their hands.Heat rushed to my cheeks as I stumbled toward my seat, not minding the ink on it.His silver eyes flicked to me briefly, cold and sharp—nothing like the man who had draped his coat over me. It was as if last night had never happened.How he remained calm after seeing me had baffled me. “My name is Lucian Sterling. And I’ll be your history teacher from now on,” he introduced himself. His eyes lingered on me for a while. Quickly, he cleared his throat before reaching for a textbook while he approached the board. “Open your textbooks,” he said. His tone was clipped, commanding. “Page 17.”Everyone obeyed instantly. Even Al

Brielle’s POV I woke up the next morning with a blinding, throbbing headache. Before I could even fully open my eyes and process my unfamiliar surroundings, my hand brushed against a warm, incredibly taut chest. *Oh my fucking days… he looks like a freaking demi-god.* I had thought to myself. “Moon goddess! My professor?” I gasped, instantly slapping my hand over my mouth to stifle the sound. As I moved, a sharp, sudden ache flared between my thighs. I froze. Tearing my panicked gaze away from the gorgeous, sleeping Greek god beside me, I gently lifted the edge of the blanket to peek underneath and see what was going on down there. “Oh my—” The words died in my throat. Reality hit me like a physical blow. *I lost my virginity last night. To my college professor.* Memories came crashing back in an intoxicating, terrifying rush as I scrambled to take in the room. This definitely wasn't J4 House, where I lived. The sheer luxury of this space was on an entirely different level.

Naomi's POV My mate explained everything to me as fast as he could and in front of everyone. He knew she needed to sleep around him so he could monitor what she said. He had a lot of sleepless nights but he finally was able to carry it out. They found my sons but they kept them hidden from everyone including me. Hunter was only acting to have her close so she would trust him due to her love. He even made her send off her guards. But unfortunately, they were dead and gone. They were rogue wolves and all they deserved was death. Outsiders were not allowed in the pack. Malia was not able to recall sending them off because Hunter mate sent them off when she was asleep. All this while I thought I was being abandoned by my own I loved not knowing all he was doing was trying to save me the troubles. He was fighting and strategizing in the secret room to defeat the enemy. I smacked this hand playfully with a pout. “Why did you not tell me?” I asked “Malia had her spies everywhere. I did

Naomi's POV I never thought a day like this would ever exist. No one informed me of this happening today and in fact, it did not matter. If they had told me, it would not have changed my mind on the issue. I do not want my mate to be married to anyone else and most especially not Malia. I was close to not attending. I did not want to attend it. Why should I be in attendance? To give my position to that person who did not deserve it? The one person that wanted to watch me be humiliated in front of everyone. I just cannot. I was not going to give my position to a woman that I cannot trust. “She must attend” Malia said to Hunter in front of me “I do not want to” I said, firmly She scoffed and walked away without another word. “Naomi, please attend” Hunter said “Why should I attend? I can't watch you get married to some other lady, Hunter. Don't you see I'm in pain” I tried to explain to him but it fell on deaf ears “Naomi, I know you do not like what is going on but you have to att

Naomi's POV I sat at the back of the building crocheting. I was not so good but I rather do something with my hands or I do not think I would be able to resist, punching Malia until she lost consciousness. It had been days now and she was still at the mansion and I was yet to see my sons. I have not spoken with Hunter either. He loved being around Malia. He went on romantic walks as Malia called it. She made a show to show off during those walks. Not many people cared about them. They were thinking about getting back to their feet after the war and not working at the alpha and his newfound lover. I was being patient with Hunter. He needed to snap out of whatever was going on with him on his own. I could not do anything because Malia was always around him and touching him so much I could hardly stand it. I am still trying to understand what was the point of all of this. If truly I was losing my husband, then I should be able to hold my children. My husband was not there then my chil

Naomi's POV If shocked had a higher word… I was that. Hunter agreed to her plans. Did he hear her properly? She was asking that I be demoted to the rank of ordinary wife to him. I was his wife and his mate. I deserved to be Luna. Not an outsider. He could have tried to negotiate another way. Discarding me was going to give her the chance to walk on me without minding that I too was his wife. He could not look me in the eyes after doing that. He kept dodging my eyesight. Angry, I left the living room, walked up the stairs, and went into my room. I plopped on the bed, my leg going up and down in anxiety. He should have negotiated another way. Not accept her biddings. Would he allow her to mock me more than this in the near future? The door opened and I raised my head to have a look at who it was. I turned my head to the side, ignoring him. Hunter took off his jacket, placed it on the chair then approached me on the bed. He took position at the side I was looking at but I turned to th

I I walked back to my pack feeling assured that my plan had worked. I knew Alpha Silver was taken back and was still in shock about Emilia coming for his head. I laughed hysterically as I walked back into my room. I entered to see that Emilia was gone. " Emmy, are you in there?" I said walking towards the bathroom. "Where the hell is that bitch?" I said in frustration. I looked around and still couldn't find her. I went into the bathtub to have my bath. I heard the door creak open " Is that you, Emilia?" I shouted from the bathroom. Emily immediately came into the bathroom taking off her clothes. " Can I join you?" she saw with a smile " Of course, I checked when I got back and you were gone. Did you go somewhere?" I asked looking at her Emilia was good at hiding things from me I wonder how I was able to know she was planning my demise. Emilia looked at me and I knew she was going to have to lie to my face "Oh, I quickly went out for a walk. I needed to get some groceries too sin

Naomi's POV We finally had him. He surrendered. Even though it had to take the fall of most of the people first before he chose to do it, we still chose to give him a chance. If he was ready to repent and let go of all the bygones then we were ready to accept him with our full chest. However, he would have to be locked up first. Logan chose to take him. But no one expected what happened next. Malvin took out a dagger and stabbed Logan in his arm. We were a few steps away so before we could get to him, Malvin held Logan's head and took his sword to his head. “I am not playing with either of you. It's either you step down or you lose someone. I am not joking” Malvin said with his eyes wide with anger I turned to Hunter and then to the other men. Logan did not try to fight or stop Malvin. He held his arm with a frown on his face. “Are you doing as I asked?” Malvin yelled Logan had enough of this man, he pulled out the dagger and slit his wrist. The one that held the sword he had. Log
