“He wanted me to get along with them. I just did what he wanted me to do. By the way.” She looked straight at me with an amusing smile. “Why don’t you get along with Willow? She’s so pretty and doesn’t have a scandalous and weird reputation. She’s a good girl from a pleasant home. Even though she’s friends with that girl, she’s not influenced by Violet.”
“How do you know?”
“Well, it’s pretty obvious, isn’t it?”
“Mom, I love her. I wanna date her. I don’t care about what you think and don’t tell me who to date because it’s Violet that I want. She’s the only one I will ever love, okay?” I ran up the staircase to not hear what else she had to say.
“James.” She called after me, but I ignored her. I didn’t have the energy to argue with her. I was exhausted, and I needed some space for myself.
I’m James Stormfall. I’m 17 years old and an alpha of the Mackenzie Pack.
My divorced parents are still the leaders of the pack and I am their heir to the pack.
I grew up as an only child, with nannies and bodyguards who trained me to be tough and strong as an alpha.
My mansion is incredible.
It’s massive, with sleek lines and immense glass windows everywhere.
Inside, there’s a grand staircase, marble floors, and high ceilings.
The living room has a giant fireplace and a wall-sized TV. The kitchen is state-of-the-art, with top-of-the-line appliances.
There’s a home theater, a game room, and even a gym.
The main bedroom is like a five-star hotel suite, with a spa-like bathroom and a walk-in closet.
Outside, there’s a stunning infinity pool, a hot tub, and a beautiful garden.
It’s the ultimate in luxury and comfort.
I’ve been living with only my mother for two years since my father left home.
He and my mother have joint custody and I only see him once a month.
He was best friends with Violet’s father and her mother.
I heard they’ve been friends since highschool and wanted us, as their children, to do the same.
And see, they almost have the same surname.
Stormclaw and Stormfall.
I tried getting along with Mr. Stormclaw’s children as a kid, but they just don’t want to be close to me and I don’t know why.
Only Violet showed me some interaction, except for that jerk.
Ash.
I fell in love with Violet as soon as I set my eyes on her gorgeous face and her cute smile.
She was so lovely as a kid.
It’s been 7 years since we’ve known each other and I was the first alpha to take her virginity.
It was her first time.
It made me so excited that I wanted her for myself.
I need her to be mine. I don’t want anyone else taking her away from me. I love her to death and I will make sure she becomes my girlfriend.
I don’t care what that bastard says to me. I want her and she likes me too.
There is nothing stopping us. My fuck, I can’t wait to have her again.
I jumped on my bed as soon as I closed the door and unbuckled my belt.
I shoved out my dick and stroked my cock relentlessly.
I’ve never been extremely horny thinking about Violet before.
Why were my hormones so intense today?
Damn, she is so fucking hot.
I want her so much.
I just can’t stop thinking about that night at the hotel.

I got to school as usual, with Ash sitting beside me and Willow and Anderson sitting in front of us.
We were all so deep in our discussion when we heard an uproar.
We all stopped, looked at each other and got up from our chairs at the same time to go see what was happening outside the classroom.
I pushed through the crowds to see what was happening and saw James on the floor with blood all over his mouth, trying so hard to breathe with his eyes popped out.
His hands were on his neck.
I panicked and shouted at everyone to get out of the way and give James some space to breathe in the air.
I held his hand with a panic. “What happened to you?” I questioned, and someone had already called the doctor from the infirmary to come check up on him.
The doctor and the nurses rushed to James’s body and carried him up.
They all rushed him to the infirmary for check-up. I looked at my hands and saw blood on them.
My heart was beating at a rapid rate and the memories I had forgotten a long time ago surfaced when I saw the exact splattered blood I saw on my hands years ago.
???? ???, ??????. ??? ??? ?? ??.
My chest aches so badly, like I was going to die.
Willow’s soft fingers held my hands.
I stared at her, and she beamed at me with a smile.
“Let’s go to the bathroom to wash up.” She suggested, and I nodded and slowly followed her to the female’s bathroom.
We got to the silver sink and put our hands under the tap after taking soap, as the water gushed out.
Willow helped me to wash my hands.
She brought a perfume and sprinkled it on both of us without saying a word when we were done.
I heaved a deep sigh. I was glad for her help.

I looked over at Ash, who was standing beside me without a bit of worry on his expression.
His hands were in both pockets and he looked so composed, seeing James on the floor as the doctors came to take him away from the hallway.
Then I saw a devious smile on his face as he inhaled sharply.
“What’s up with you? You’re gonna pretend to panic or else people would think you are the reason he is on the floor.”
And I am standing beside him. Of course, they would think we were together or something.
If he has something to do with what transpired with James, at least pretend to know nothing about it.
“Why.” He smirked and looked over at me, amusingly. “Do you think I am the reason he is on the floor?”
“Ash, what did you do?” I know him so well, like the back of my hand.
“Oh, so you think I did it, huh?!”
“You haven’t answered the question. I’m your best friend, so I know what you are capable of.”
“Oh, really?!” He laughed. “That’s brilliant of you.”
I sighed and saw Willow slowly walking side by side with Violet and they were both conversing.
“Seriously, what did you do to him and, by the way, why do you hate him so much?!”
“I just added a little wolfsbane on his drink.” Ash replied nonchalantly with a scoff.
“You did what?!”
