21. A Discussion ROYCE. I know the way it was portrayed by members of staff who mentioned it in passing just yesterday in the teachers’ lounge. They all were pretty clear on the fact that she didn’t really seem to show remorse. “We all know she has compassion towards others, that’s clear by the affection […]

20. Her Father ROYCE. It’s two days later and the day the Lycan King himself is coming to the school. I’m sitting in my office mulling over yesterday’s session. Training with Skyla has been a little easier. Staring with her, warming up without complaining. She’s been quieter too, and I wonder what is on her

19. First Lesson SKYLA “Alright.” His words surprise me, and he takes a step back. He’s backing down? “Alright?” I ask, unable to hide the surprise from my voice. He raises an eyebrow. “You don’t want to listen then fine; we’ll move on. You might be a werewolf, but we can get muscle cramps, even

18. A Friend’s Warning SKYLA. The following day dawned grey and gloomy, but I felt better. Well, at least the place wasn’t wrecked, no one was dead and I can try to put the night behind me… but can I do that when I’ll be seeing him at school? Do I have any science lessons

17. My Demons SKYLA. As the door shuts behind him, my small smirk fades away, and I look around the cottage. That cosy touch feels empty… My stomach drops, guilt filling me, followed by a void, one so deep it almost hurts to breathe. This is the part I hate the most; I know my

16. A Brother’s Rage ALERIC. An hour later she’s finished describing what she saw, and I am intrigued, because all we have ever seen is the plum eyes. It’s always so fast… “Sounds like a huge snake… only there’s no snake of that calibre.” I muse, she’s proved helpful, and she’s intelligent. I like that.

15. Heat & Passion ALERIC. She’s… I don’t kiss women on the lips. There’s something about it that disgusts me, but when I saw her standing there, clearly upset with whatever Royce had said to her, I was unable to stop myself. Perhaps I knew if I wanted to make this look as genuine as

14. Our Differences SKYLA. Now that I wasn’t expecting and I can’t help but smirk at his struggle, he growls in frustration, letting go of me and turning his back on me. I chuckle, sliding my gown up over my shoulder. “You really are so boring.” I tut, pushing past him, not bothering to tie

13. In the Middle of the Night SKYLA I see its shadow loom in the tiny window, which is far too small for it to fit through. Heck, I just about managed to fit! Thank g*d I’m not blessed with Mama’s curves or my a*s wouldn’t have fitted through that d*mn window and that snake

12. An Attack SKYLA I don’t move, the first rule of survival… stay calm. I keep my breathing steady, my eyes blazing plum purple, the exact colour of whatever or whoever that is we’re pretty far but those eyes look almost…. reptilian. I’m not completely sure as I’m not close enough and then again, there
