Lucas' POVWhen I got upstairs, the whole corridor was blanketed by heavy, black smoke.The fire was a raging inferno, a monster with a voracious appetite for destruction.The building shook and groaned as the flames consumed it, chewing through the walls and ceilings like a beast gnawing on its prey. Smoke billowed out of the windows, a thick and choking cloud that obscured the sky.The servants rushed about in a panicked frenzy, shouting and pointing as they tried to escape the fiery hell.Fuck. Leo knows how to set up a fire.One of them recognized me in the chaos, pushing me downstairs."Please don't go any further, Young Master Lucas! Go down!" He screamed at the top of his lungs."Where's Louisa?!" I shouted."I didn't see her! Please go downstairs, Young Master! The firefighters will come to rescue her!""Did you see Leo?!"The man shook his head violently.Oh. Fuck it.I pushed him aside, removed my shirt, dampened it in the water, and ran directly into the fire.I made up my
Lucas' POVI couldn't depict the ecstasy when a werewolf felt that he was being accepted and admired by his mate.All I could say was that it was so real that it almost became a palatable thing. It was a feeling unlike any other. A sense of pride and satisfaction filled my soul and radiated outwards, warming me from the inside out.My lips were still burning with her scent. It lingered there and refused to fade away.I had kissed her multiple times, but we had never really kissed each other until the flaming kiss we shared a moment ago. A kiss that had been born in the fire and had forged a bond between us that would last a lifetime.I may have achieved nothing in my life. I might have been taken as a loser to my brother or a disappointment to my parents, but the existence of my mate proved that I was capable of achieving anything I set my mind to.I took a deep breath, savoring the moment. The sun was shining, the house was burning, the crows were screeching in rising smoke, and the
Louisa's POV "Do I really have to eat this kind of shit for my entire senior year at our school?" I stared at the gooey bread soaked in suspicious red sauce on my plate. "We can't afford to be a critical eater." Jackie poked a piece of undercooked chicken in her place. "I need to take in some protein or else I can't survive the afternoon sessions. I mean, why do I have to learn Chemistry? Those chemicals in the lab drive people crazy. I've dated a chemist before and I swear he eats chalk." Leah took her seat in front of us and said, "Jackie, stop poking your food." Being the elder sister of Jackie, Leah had a finely developed sense of sin. Playing with food was a sin. Idling was a sin. Fooling around with boys was a sin. She suffered bravely and uncomplainingly through her life as a farmer's daughter convinced that was the way the Moon Goddess wanted every wolf to live. "Yeah, sis, you're right. If I keep poking this chicken, it might wake up and fly away from the plate." Jackie
Louisa's POV"Yeah. Jessica was telling the truth.""It was Jackie's fault!"Those girls wouldn't let go of this great opportunity of showing their loyalty to the queen bitch."But..." Just when I was about to argue, Leah grabbed my hands and said, "Sorry, Mr. Dickson. It's our fault. We shouldn't have started a fight with Jessica.""Really?" Mr. Dickson looked contemptuous. "What about the wound on your forehead?""I was clumsy and fell to the ground by myself," Leah said, holding both of me and Jackie in her hands."Great! So, the case closed." Mr. Dickson said. "The three of you have to do 10 hours of social service on campus, starting from cleaning the mess you've created in the cafeteria.""What?! Are you fucking kidding me?! You want us to clean up this shit?!" Jackie growled."Miss O'Reilly, if you dare to use the f-word in front of me again, I will have to detain you after school." Mr. Dickson licked his lips while stripping Jackie with his eyes."F..." Jackie was about to swe
Louisa's POVThere you go. My first 3P invitation. In a dark and tiny storage that smelt like urine.The most unbelievable part was, the trainwreck part of me secretly wanted to say "yes".Damn. What's the matter with me?! I thought to myself. Am I tempted by Lucas' famous dark magic or something?!I panicked and stepped back, shaking my head, trying to get that obnoxious thought out of my head.It didn't work at all. Then, my mind was scarred by the impossible picture of me joining the girl, licking Lucas' dick.Shit. I really should have stopped watching porn.Eventually, the sensible part of me won and forced me to wave my hands.I stuttered, "No! I... Here... I'm here for... a mop..."Shit. Of all the cleaning supplies in the world. I used the word "mop".I shoved a mop in his face last time. Remember?He looked puzzled for a while, pulling the girl's hair while thrusting his dick in her mouth, deeper and harder each time. He was literally torturing that poor girl, but she seemed
Louisa's POVHis perfect side face showed up in my sight, trying to look at my notebook on the table.I almost had a heart attack when I recalled that I had written his name all over the page.Frantic and freaked out, I tore that page down and tried to find a place to hide it.But I couldn't find any safe place to destroy the evidence of crime permanently, so in a panic, I stuffed the crumpled paper into my mouth and swallowed it, praying that he hadn't seen it.That was it.That was the day I became the crazy bitch who ate paper in a Chemistry lab.Rock bottom of my life. Hashtag shame of the year.Two minutes passed, and nothing happened. I almost thought Lucas walked away in secret because of what I had done.I couldn't blame him if he had walked away. I would have walked away and pretended nothing had happened if I had found a crazy bitch chewing paper in front of me.But, apparently, Lucas didn't walk away.The devilish cologne was still there, sent towards me by waves of his bre
Louisa's POV"He's a jerkfaced jerk," I said, climbing into Jackie's pick-up and slapping the door.Jackie chuckled nervously and said, "Oh, come on, Louisa. He's not that bad. My mom always says a man is like an onion. You need to peel them, layer after layer, and then you can find out his true character. Plus, he was really a gentleman today, returning your heels in front of everyone like that. He always gets what he wants for a reason.""I've seen pretty much everything about him and my conclusion is that he's a jerkfaced jerk," I said."You mean, full frontal?!" Jackie looked at me with eyes wide open."Worse than that." I shook my head and tried to get the image of his dick and balls out of my head.I couldn't believe it. I had been haunted by a dick and balls all day long."Seriously?!" Jackie looked interested. "Tell me about it! Is he big? I've heard it was super big. What was it like? Leather?""Jackie!" I covered my ears with my hands.To be honest, I was a bit surprised bec
Louisa's POVDressed up in a shredded white T-shirt (I didn't even want to know how it had been shredded) and blue-ripped jeans, his sex appeal was irresistible, like James Dean walking out of a movie poster and starting ripping off his shirt and jeans in front of you.His sidekick, Leo Kofron, who was also busy sucking a Russian stripper's tits, noticed my existence and waved at me."Waiter! Come clean the shit on the table because someone is going on a Russian roulette of shame!" He exclaimed while biting the girl's nipples with his teeth.The good news was Leo didn't recognize me.The bad news was Lucas might recognize me.I mean, seriously?! Why did this kind of shit happen to me?!And what the fuck is the Russian roulette of shame?!I didn't even want to know."What are you doing? The customer is calling you!" Natasha wasn't very happy about me standing there like an idiot.I lowered my head and clenched my jaw, walking toward their booth with a basket.The light in the club dimm
