LOGIN~WILLOWI balled my hands into fists as I felt my wolf churning with anger. "Here's something you don't seem to realise, Axel," I finally said through gritted teeth. "Everything isn't always about you." He scoffed. "Look around, Willow. I am the future Alpha of this pack. So yes, everything is always about me." Murmurs escaped from our audience who were pretending to be cleaning walls or flower vases while watching. "That's what you think because it's who you are. You are nothing but a selfish manipulative bastard!" Axel gasped, his expression slowly turning mortified.‘Yes, girl! That's what I'm talking about!’ My wolf exclaimed in satisfaction. "I am honestly so glad that you rejected me. At least, I don't get to spend the rest of my life with a self centered bastard like you!" "Willow!" Violet suddenly screamed. "Have you lost your mind? Apologise to him" I lifted my head high, never breaking eye contact with Axel's already shimmering emerald orbs. His aura suddenly grew d
~WILLOWFor a moment, my mind went blank. My eyes grew wide and for a split second, I didn't react. I simply let him do it. Then, my senses came flooding back and I began to fight him. "What do y—" I barely finished before he placed his hand over my mouth. "People are watching," he whispered gently as he smiled at me. My heart skipped. It looked too warm. The mountain of ice I associated River with in my head began to melt away thanks to that smile. Then he leaned closer to my face. "I told you before we left, didn't I?" He whispered. "We have to start making them believe something is up so that the rumor starts spreading naturally." I blinked twice as I finally understood then I nodded slowly. "You're not smiling at me, babe," he muttered when he finally pulled away. I forced a bright smile as I looked up at him. "Don't startle me like that next time. You know how shy I am." His smile grew wider, almost as if it was mixed with excitement. "I'll bring you lunch. Be good an
~WILLOWI didn't know it when I fell asleep until I woke up the next morning. I must have remained stiff after his threat and probably slept off that way too. I stirred on the bed. Then turned to the other side and that was when I noticed River's side was empty. I looked down at the warm blanket covering me up and I frowned. I didn't remember sleeping with this. "Did River..." I trailed unable to finish it. It made no sense that he would do that. Just then, the delicious smell of food floated into the room and my stomach suddenly growled loudly. ‘Somebody's hungry,’ my wolf muttered.I rolled my eyes at her. "Good morning to you too." I could only salivate at the smell. He was obviously cooking for himself. Besides, my father always forced me to do intermittent fasting. So breakfast was out of the question for me. "I should just have my bath and get ready for another day of slavery at the pack house." I took a quick shower and decided to wear another one of River's shirts a
~WILLOWI stared back at River like he had lost his mind for the millionth time today."Are you crazy?" I snapped. "Why would we share a bed?" Was he secretly a pervert?My eyes went wide at the thought as I began retreating from River who was still walking toward me. ‘Oh boy,’ my wolf sighed and it sounded more like she was directing it at me than River. "Willow..." He called. "You already agreed to be my fake girlfriend. You have to play the part till the end." "What part of fake dating includes sharing a bed?" I demanded. River squeezed his eyes shut like he was already losing his patience. My back hit the wall at that point and that was when River caged me with both his hands. He had me pinned against the wall and there was no way to escape because he was blocking all my exits. I gasped but he never backed away."You really know how to get on my nerves, Little Mist," he whispered dangerously as he locked eyes with mine. For the first time since I'd known him, I noticed how
~WILLOWWho would have thought this day would come? The day that I'd follow my very own bully to his house—Willingly. ‘He's cute,’ my wolf whispered. I widened my eyes at that. "Shut up!" River stopped abruptly and turned to look at me with raised brows. His eyes blazed into me and I froze.I blinked twice realising that I had snapped out loud. "I— I wasn't talking to you." His brows only raised higher as he searched for this other person that I could have been talking to. When he found no one, he faced me. "Right." I felt like shrinking in shame. He didn't have to say it out loud. I knew what he was thinking. That I was crazy. ‘Don't think so,’ my naughty wolf said in a playful tone as I felt her float around within me. ‘You are so frustrating!’ I complained inwardly this time."My bike's parked just outside the trees," River announced after a long time of walking. How he managed to make that possible, I had no idea. It wasn't surprising though, since he had power in thi
~WILLOW“Have you completely lost your mind?” I exploded as I shot to my feet. River never moved. He only watched me and I hated his cold calmness. “Do I look like a joke to you?” I went on anyway as my heart suddenly began to ache again. “I probably look very pathetic to you.”"It's a temporary arrangement," He finally said. "Let's fake date." There, he managed to make it crazier than the first time he said it. "How desperate for a relationship do you think I am that you sincerely believe I would agree to this insanity?"Just when I thought I had seen it all and faced every possible insult, another one got slapped in my face. ‘Hear him out. Might have a point,’ my wolf whispered. And I shivered in irritation. Just whose side was she on? Mine or his? "It's not any of what you think it is. Will you hear me out first before you explode further?" He demanded, never once getting irritated. He just kept a straight face the whole time. How could he manage to keep a straight face?
