Chapter 115 – Special–1
–LIA’S POV–
Zane walked up to me, his expression unreadable.
“Did you see that?” I asked.

“Yeah,” he replied, putting his hand on my waist. “Don’t worry, I’ll check up on him.”
My eyebrows shot up. “You will?”
“Of course,” he replied. “He looked injured.”
“Don’t you hate him?” I asked.
Zane glanced at me, narrowing his eyes. “I do. But that doesn’t mean I will forget what he did last night.”
I smiled up at him. “Thank you.”
“Why are you thanking me? I’m not doing this for you.”
“Then?”
“Contrary to what you might think, my kindness isn’t reserved only for you.”
I laughed. “I don’t think that.”

“Is that so?” He pulled me closer, making me gasp.
“Yes…” I giggled.
“Hm, that’s good to know.” He pressed a kiss to my temple. “Let’s go now. We don’t wanna be late for every class.”
“Every class? We haven’t been late to classes recently.”
“I know. But we will be today.”
“Why?”
“I’ll tell you after the first period.”
“I don’t like surprises, Zane.”
Zane smirked. “Liar.”
“Alright, fine, you got me. But at least give me a hint.”

“No.” He took me by the shoulders and turned me around. “Let’s
go now.”
Zane and I sat beside each other, but I couldn’t help but glance at Blake from time to time.

This head was down, as if he was only here in flesh. His mind was elsewhere, in deep thought.
Zane took my hand under the table, and I flinched, making him hown.
“What’s wrong?”
“No—nothing.”
“No, you flinched when I took your hand.”
I released a breath.
“Actually, I felt like you caught me.”
“Caught you?”
I leaned in to his car, and said in the quietest of whispers so Blake wouldn’t hear, “I was staring at Blake.”
Instantly, Zane tensed.
“Oh.”
“I’m sorry,” I said, “I’m just–”
“Concerned, I know,” he said gently. “It’s okay, Lin. I’m not

upsel.”
I sighed in relief.
“Why do you get so worried? I trust you, my love. I’m sorry if I’ve ever made you feel otherwise.”
“No, no you haven’t. It’s just all the information you gave me on werewolves. You’re territorial, right?”
“Yes, I am. But that doesn’t mean I’m possessive beyond reason. You haven’t glanced at any other man ever since we started dating. If you’re gazing al someone who tried to save our lives. the previous night, that is totally understandable.”
“Thank you,” I said. “For being the best.”
Zane leaned in closer to me, eyes flying to the teacher to make sure he wasn’t looking. “You have no idea yet, my love.”
I bit my lip, as my cheeks flamed.
Zane leaned away with a satisfied smile, and I fidgeted with my hands to distract myself from the heat spreading through me. I glanced at Blake again, and this time, his green eyes were fixed on me. My stomach twisted, and I quickly looked away, uncomfortable.
Zane squeezed my thigh under the table, almost making me yelp. I shot him a playful glare, and he chuckled, withdrawing

I suppressed a smile, shaking my head.

After the fourth period, it was finally lunch break.
Zane and I stood up, along with the rest of the class. He grabbed my things before I could, and I smiled at the gesture.
“Let’s go,” he said. “There’s somewhere we have to be.”
I frowned, “Where?”
“I told you we’d be late for a few classes today.”
“I know that, but where are we going?”
“You’ll find out soon enough.” He put an arm around me and led. me out of the classroom.
“Zane…”
“Lia…”
“Give me a hint at least,” I urged as we walked into the corridor.
Zane stopped, stepping in front of me. “Do you trust me?”

“Yes, of course.”
“Then stay quiet and follow my lead.”
I groaned. “Okay. Fine.”

Zane drove us somewhere, a place I’d never been before. I didn’t recognise the route, nor the area, and after a while I stopped trying to figure it out. He held my hand the entire drive, and we talked about anything and everything. From werewolves, The Order and Blake to school, Christy and his friends.
I tried my best to trick him into telling me where we were going, but he dodged my questions very smartly.
Finally, we pulled before a large mansion, one away from the town, quiet and secluded.
The large iron gates opened up on their own, letting us in.
A large garden stretched before us, with a clear pathway in the middle that led to the mansion. We drove in and parked in front
of the main door.
“Whose house is this?” I asked, looking around as Zane killed. the engine. “It’s beautiful.”
Zane smiled. “You like it? Is it better than mine?”

I shrugged. “Kinda.”
“Don’t worry. We’ll have a similar one, I promise.”
I chuckled. “Okay. Anything else?”
“I mean it.” He frowned. “You think I’m joking?”
“Yours is good enough, Zane. I don’t need another one.”

“Well, then we’ll just get that one renovated according to your
laste.”
“You’re talking about things way in the future. We’re sixteen.”
“So? We can’t get married?”
