She was the new student at the school. She was a brilliant girl. He was not a new student. He knew what happens at school. She didn't know. He tried his best. But she ended up hating him. Can they ever fall in love?

Chapter 1 Prologue

I woke up at 7. Yup, I usually sleep till late, but today is my first day at this so called college.

"Ughhhh"

"Hm let's go"

.

.

I went downstairs and found my mum. She was preparing breakfast.

"I am going mum!" I yelled.

"Take this!" She replied.

I don't like breakfasts..

But I had to eat it. And just after I ate, I gave my mum a hug and went. She's lovely..but strict to rules.

"First day in college. I have no friends. Wow" I thought and entered the strange college.

I entered the college and there stood my teacher.

"She's beautiful"I thought.

As I entered, she greeted me.

" Hello! You're the new student.. Ms.. Ms. Astrid, right? "

"Yes mam!" I said and she gave a big smile.

She introduced me to the class.

"She's Astrid Young from LA. I hope you all will be her friends" she spoke with her brightest smile.

I said hello.

Then I turned my face towards the class. All were looking towards me.

"Am I a ghost?"

Well I looked back at the teacher, almost asking her my place to sit.

"umm... The place next to Noah is empty.. Go sit there"

I just nodded and sat beside him.

Woah. He's so handsome. Perfect face with oceanic eyes in which you can get lost. I was admiring his beauty in my mind. He didn't look at me, so I kept on looking at him for sometime. He isn't looking at me after all

Then I came in my senses when I heard a voice.

"You've been staring me for half an hour, mind to study?" said Noah gazing at me.

Oh shit! Shit! Shit! Shit! What will he think of me now. I lowered my head in embarrassment.

"I-I.." I was trying to reason my stupidity when he spoke again.

"Anyway, don't reason it, I know I'm just too handsome, it's not your fault.. I think you never saw a handsome boy!" he smirked at me.

Wow. He just admired himself.

I couldn't control this insult. I retorted.

"There's nothing like that. Don't be too full of yourself!"

He smiled evilly and then his gaze shifted from me to his book again.

Now who the hell is he laughing at? Well, it's not my problem... What a nerd!!!

I didn't do anything and just studied.

Yes, I studied..

Only studied, okay!?!

The cold boss of The Brown Association has suddenly turned warm for someone. That someone is none other than his own personal assistant. He never thought in his wildest dreams that someone who is not the richest, not the best, not the prettiest can steal his heart, but damn, for him, she is the most beautiful girl. He slowly fell for her so deep that he was ready to do anything to get her, and if not, then he will be broken. After many heartbreaks, he finally gave up on her. She reciprocated the feelings, but only for a few days. What was that, anyway? Continued working, he turned completely cold-even more than he was before-to everyone, including her. Knowing what has caused him to return to his older self with an, even more, worse condition, she decided to make up for it. But it was too late. He had someone who'd love him back, and not leave him when he needed her the most. Misunderstandings are a part of their, or pretty much, any, love story. They were sad and broken, still, they were finding their happiness through walking over the shattered pieces of their heart. She was not the same either. And then it happened. The truth. She did everything she could to save him. Maybe that was the thing. The thing he wanted because she was there this time when he needed her. But what proves that she will not leave him now? The answer could be trust, but that was long gone between them. Frustrated by him not being able to trust her, she decided to do the thing he had never thought. Hell, no one ever thought of it. He had to face the consequences. And, he did.

I had just survived a private jet crash, my body a map of violet bruises and my lungs still burning from the smoke. I woke up in a sterile hospital room, gasping for my husband's name, only to realize I was completely alone. While I was bleeding in a ditch, my husband, Adam, was on the news smiling at a ribbon-cutting ceremony. When I tracked him down at the hospital's VIP wing, I didn't find a grieving husband. I found him tenderly cradling his ex-girlfriend, Casie, in his arms, his face lit with a protective warmth he had never shown me as he carried her into the maternity ward. The betrayal went deeper than I could have imagined. Adam admitted the affair started on our third anniversary-the night he claimed he was stuck in London for a merger. Back at the manor, his mother had already filled our planned nursery with pink boutique bags for Casie's "little princess." When I demanded a divorce, Adam didn't flinch. He sneered that I was "gutter trash" from a foster home and that I'd be begging on the streets within a week. To trap me, he froze my bank accounts, cancelled my flight, and even called the police to report me for "theft" of company property. I realized then that I wasn't his partner; I was a charity case he had plucked from obscurity to manage his life. To the Hortons, I was just a servant who happened to sleep in the master bedroom, a "resilient" woman meant to endure his abuse in silence while the whole world laughed at the joke that was my marriage. Adam thought stripping me of his money would make me crawl back to him. He was wrong. I walked into his executive suite during his biggest deal of the year and poured a mug of sludge over his original ten-million-dollar contracts. Then, right in front of his board and his mistress, I stripped off every designer thread he had ever paid for until I was standing in nothing but my own silk camisole. "You can keep the clothes, Adam. They're as hollow as you are." I grabbed my passport, turned my back on his billions, and walked out of that glass tower barefoot, bleeding, and finally free.

"Anya, a 'wolfless' in a world of powerful werewolves, was invisible, drowning her sorrows and desperately lonely. One drunken text, a desperate cry for attention, accidentally reached the Alpha, pulling her into his terrifying orbit. Now, she's trapped, a pawn in his game, forced to warm his bed while he waits for his true mate, her heart breaking with every stolen moment. As a 'wolfless' in the Blackwood Pack, Anya felt like an outsider, always yearning for a connection. One night, in a drunken haze, a misdirected text meant for her best friend landed in Alpha Declan Blackwood's inbox: ""Send me something hot."" Minutes later, the most powerful, terrifying man in the Pack stood at her door, claiming her with a possessive kiss that ignited a dangerous, unwanted fire. The next morning, his cold indifference shattered her world. Publicly humiliated and instantly fired, Anya became a pariah. Her dying mother's urgent need for a million-dollar heart transplant left her with an impossible choice: accept the Alpha's cold, transactional marriage proposal or watch her mother die. She became his ""placeholder"" wife, a contract, not a partner, all while battling a confusing attraction to the man who treated her as property. Why did he demand her, only to remind her constantly of her worthlessness, especially when everyone knew he waited for his true mate? Her world crumbled when she overheard Declan tell his returning ""true mate,"" Kristin Larsen, that Anya was ""just a substitute."" Despite the crushing betrayal and a strange, unyielding pull, Anya, fueled by her mother's desperate need, vowed to survive this gilded cage and reclaim her life before she lost herself completely."
