Chapter 4
Hayley’s POV
MOONLIGHT COLLEGE
I got to my class and settled down. I brought out the same book I was reading the previous night, the one Aiden took from me. He dropped the book back for me last night. I was so engrossed in the book that I wasn’t aware Mon and Mina were already seated beside me. They kept reading with me until we got to a paragraph which contained a sex scene. Mina gasped and covered her mouth with her palm.
“Bloody hell! Hayley!” Mina shouted, catching my attention.
“Oh, girls, you’re here,” I smiled awkwardly, realizing I was caught reading such an erotic book.
“What were you reading?” Mona chimed in.
“Oh, this book, it’s nothing,” I lied.
“Wow, I never knew you were this good at lying,” Rita mind-linked me.
“What options do I have? It would be too embarrassing for me if I eventually get caught,” I replied through the mindlink.
“Don’t give me that look, babe. What’s the name of this series, so I can also read it. Since my love life is so boring, I need to spice it up by reading such an erotic book,” Mina said with a flirty smile.
“You’re such a bad girl,” I said, and we all laughed.
“I need to know how to handle my mate sexually, that’s if I see him before I fall in love with any random guy,” Mina said and rested back on the chair.
“Why haven’t you seen your mate yet? You’re more than eighteen years already,” I asked.
“Please help me ask the moon goddess. I am so tired of being mateless,” Mina fake-cried, making both of us laugh.
They were still laughing when a guy walked into the class, going straight to the podium.
“1…2 testing the microphone,” he said playfully.
“Dude, if you have nothing to say, please leave that place,” Mona said loudly, making the whole class burst into laughter.
“Actually, I have something to say… there would be a party at my place today. My parents are out of town, and today is my birthday, so everyone is free to come,” the guy said.NôvelDrama.Org © content.
“Now you’re talking, dude. Count me fully in,” Mona raised her hand.
“And also my sister,” she dragged Mina’s hand also.
“And also our best friend,” the both of them dragged my hand up.
“I am not interested, my parents are strict and won’t let me go,” I interjected.
“Whose parents aren’t strict? You just have to sneak, and moreover, Aiden is your brother. He should help you out,” Mina said, making me roll my eyes.
“I don’t need his help. I am coming to the party since I will be bored if I remain at home,” I said.
“Good riddance, babe,” Mona gave me a thumbs-up.

SENIOR YEAR CLASS
Aiden’s POV
I was seated on my seat with my headphone on. My eyes shut as I listened to music, but that ended when Gina walked up to me and took off the headphone.
Gina is the Beta’s daughter, and as such, she is close with Alpha Royal since her father is the Alpha’s beta.
“Babe, would you be attending the party tonight?” Gina asked.
“What party?” I asked, already upset because of the way she took my headphone off.
“A guy from the junior class is celebrating his birthday, and as such, he invited the whole college,” Gina said and sat beside me. Her hands went to my trousers, but I was quick to catch her hand before it touched my member.
“Not here,” I growled lowly.
“I am not interested in any party, so leave,” I replied bluntly.
“Not when your sister is attending?” Gina asked, and as expected, my eyes widened.
“Hayley is attending the party?” I asked to be sure I heard her right.
“Yeah, she’s going with her friends,” Gina confirmed.
“So are you going?” Gina asked, with the hope that I would attend since she knows I am so protective of my sister Hayley.
“It’s her life. I am not attending.” With that said, I put my headphone on and closed my eyes.

Hayley’s POV
At night, I was dressed in a short mini skirt and crop top which was revealing my belly button. I curled my long black hair and put on some makeup, making me look so beautiful like a doll. My emerald green eyes were glowing brightly at night. I put on my boots and took a small cross bag with me, where my lip gloss and phone were kept.
After I returned from college, I took permission from my mother, which was granted after several pleadings. I took my phone and placed a call across to Mona.
“Hey babe, I am ready, meet me in front of the packhouse,” I said and hung up.
I walked downstairs only to find Aiden there. He was busy on his laptop, but I also didn’t care. I was about to open the entrance door when his voice stopped me.
“Isn’t that dress of yours too short for a party? Do you want to show the boys there what to feed their eyes on?” Aiden asked, staring at me.
“And how does that concern you? It’s my body, not yours,” I turned around with a glare.
“Do whatever you want, it’s none of my business,” Aiden replied, returning his gaze back on his laptop.
“Yeah, it was never your business to begin with,” I muttered and left the packhouse.
Once I was gone, Aiden felt concerned. For some reason best known to him, he couldn’t concentrate on his work anymore. He began to imagine what eyes the boys present at the party would use to look at me, atleast so I thought.
I figured it won’t be long till he stopped his laptop work and found his way to the party with his power bike.
To my suprise, I wasn’t wrong but by the time Aiden arrived at the party, they were playing truth or dare, and I participated because my friends insisted. Aiden stood at one corner of the room watching us as we played the game. He was wearing a denim jeans and a shirt and also a jacket since it was cold outside.
He wasn’t supposed to be at the party since he already told Gina that he wasn’t interested, so I heard from his classmates, but why was he here? He was so restless after seeing the dress I put on. He just couldn’t overlook it, I guess.
Mona spun the bottle, and it rolled for some seconds before stopping in front of me.
“Dare,” I chose with a small smile.
“I dare you to have a hot makeout session with Prince Holland for two minutes,” a random girl from my class said. My eyes widened as I fidgeted with my nails. I have never kissed anyone in my life, but my first turned out to be with the same prince who rejected me a few months back because I was an omega.
“We are waiting,” the girl said, drawing me out of my thoughts. I took a deep breath before standing up to meet Holland. I took another deep breath and was about to kiss Holland when a hand dragged me from Holland’s lap.
Everyone gasped as murmurs and whispers filled the room.
“It’s Prince Aiden!” I heard them say.
“He really came to the party”, someone else said.
“Why is he so protective of his sister?”
Murmurs filled the room, but Aiden cared less as he dragged me out of the place. He kept dragging me until we got to an empty room, he entered and shut the door.
“Were you really going to kiss him?” His voice was filled with irritation and anger.
“It’s just a game, no big deal,” I took my lips in as I rested my back on the wall.
“Just a game?” Aiden hissed in annoyance. He stared at how I kept sucking on my lower lips, his breath hitched as he shoved his fingers into his wavy black hair.
“I told you not to suck on those lips, right? I don’t think I can stop myself, Hailey,” Aiden said while I raised my brows, not understanding what he meant by that.
“What do-” the remaining words got stuck in my throat when Aiden’s soft lips landed on mine. My eyes widened in shock as I stood still, not reciprocating the kiss back out of surprise. Noticing that I didn’t reciprocate it, Aiden broke the kiss and bit his lips in regret.
“I am really sorry, I got carried away….” Before he could continue his apology, my lips fell on his. I took the lead in the kiss, with my hands wrapped around his neck and his, around my slim waist. Aiden didn’t think twice before reciprocating the kiss.
