My father left my room without another word. I touched my lips with my fingertips, remembering how Enzo’s lips felt against mine. It was a brief kiss, but it was my first kiss. That wasn’t how envisioned my first kiss at all, and he certainly wasn’t whom I envisioned it with. It upset me that I bl

Lila’s POV Why did it have to be Professor Enzo that comes to pick me up? How was I going to get through an entire drive back to campus? It was an hour away. He showed up a few minutes after I finished packing. I could hear him speaking to my father in the foyer of the packhouse. “Thanks again f

“My father was a very powerful Alpha.” “Were you close to him?” I nearly slapped myself as soon as that question left my mouth. “No.” I was relieved by his answer. “My turn,” he said, surprising me. Before I could ask him what he meant, he asked, “Why did you transfer to my class when you don’t

Lila’s POV Valentine bowed her head to me, a smile playing on her long mouth and her white, razor-sharp, teeth being revealed. She was big and glorious; I had never seen anything like her before. This place was so life-like and incredible as well. I could practically feel the mist of the ocean on m

Enzo’s POV She was looking at me like she had seen a ghost. The color in her face was gone and her oddly colored eyes were wide.

Lila’s POV “Are you out of your mind?” Rachel shouted as I hung up the phone with Scott. I began toward the door. “You can’t just go there. He could be dangerous.” “I can’t let him hurt himself,” I say as I grab my coat. “It’s not your problem to fix, Lila,” she told me, following closely behind.

“Scott, what the hell!” I growled at him. “I told you; I want what you deprived me. All. Of. It.” “You’re delusional,” I said in return, placing my hands on his chest, and getting ready to push him away. “Get away from me,” I warned through my teeth. “Don’t fight it, baby,” he murmured. His mo

Lila’s POV By the time I could form words out of my mouth, Scott was already snoring. I stood frozen at the door, just staring at him. That’s all I could think to do. Hearing his words caused my heart to ache. She hated me because I was a Volana wolf. I know my kind isn’t accepted by some; they fi

“Because you tried to poison me,” I say in a hushed whisper, keeping my eyes on hers. “That’s quite the accusation.” “It’s not an accusation, it’s the truth. Scott told me everything.” “And what exactly did Scott say?” She asked, a smirk appearing on her red and glossy lips. “That you poisoned
