Short filmTranscript
00:01I was trapped in the corner of a private room.
00:05On my left sat Leroy. He was an untamable bad boy.
00:08On my right sat Blake. He was the campus genius, and secretly, an alpha werewolf.
00:15The heavy, intoxicating scent of their pheromones made my knees weak.
00:19Blake forcefully pulled me up by my waist.
00:22He laced his hot fingers through mine.
00:26She's my mate. You got a problem with that?
00:30How did I, a normal human, end up claimed by two dangerous werewolves?
00:35It all started because my best friend used my photos.
00:37She catfished both of them online.
00:40It was Halloween night. I was taking photos at the theme park.
00:46Suddenly, a video call from Stefani popped up on my phone.
00:50I answered it. She looked frantic and overly excited.
00:53Holy crap! I asked two guys if I could be their girlfriend!
00:56They both said yes!
00:58Yes! Georgie! I have two boyfriends now! What do I do?
01:01Semi had been single for years. Stefani had been single for years.
01:05Two-timing wasn't exactly something to brag about.
01:07I glared at the screen and snapped.
01:10She immediately shoved a few photos up to her camera.
01:13Dump one.
01:14A guy in a dimly lit garage.
01:16His shirt hiked up to expose sharp abs and a deep V-line.
01:19And another guy with dark, commanding eyes.
01:23Practically radiating pure testosterone.
01:26They're both insanely hot! Which one do you pick?
01:31My throat went a little dry.
01:32But I rolled my eyes at the camera.
01:34I'd said, dump one.
01:37Not, give me one, okay?
01:41As I was about to yell at her again, a cute guy drew my attention.
01:46He was cosplaying a bunny cop.
01:48He had his back to the light.
01:51Broad shoulders, a ridiculously tight waist, and long legs encased in dark jeans.
01:58The pink bunny ears looked almost perverse against all that raw, masculine energy.
02:04Stefani's voice shrieked from my phone.
02:07Tell me, Georgie. Which one do you pick?
02:11I couldn't take my eyes off the guy's lean waist.
02:13I spoke directly into the mic.
02:16Neither.
02:17I'm dating only bunnies.
02:19That's where the real fun is.
02:23The crowd thinned out.
02:24The bunny cop was about to leave with his friends.
02:28I hung up the video call. I went after him.
02:31I strode forward and caught hold of his belt bag.
02:34Hey, could you wait a sec?
02:37When he turned around, my breath caught in my throat.
02:39His face was dangerously handsome.
02:41His sharp jawline and thin lips held the faintest trace of a smirk.
02:46His gaze swept over me like a physical touch.
02:50Just for a second, something primal and gold flashed in his eyes.
02:54He tilted his head.
02:55He let out a low, husky laugh.
02:57What a coincidence.
03:18The bunny cop was at Blake Samson?
03:25The untouchable CS geniote?
03:27I suddenly remembered what Kelly had told me.
03:30Blake is insanely hot and crazy talented.
03:33I figured this had to be what people called fate.
03:36I smiled, my eyes crinkling.
03:38Yeah, what a coincidence.
03:40Are you guys leaving?
03:42Blake pointed toward the curb.
03:44A friend invited us for dinner.
03:45You want to join or shall I give you a lift?
03:47I followed his gaze.
03:49Then, I saw a Porsche, a Ferrari, and a Rolls Royce.
03:55The grin on my face stiffened.
03:57I took a few steps back.
03:59I waved my hands frantically.
04:01That's way too much trouble.
04:03You go ahead.
04:04My bestie's waiting for me.
04:05Ditching her wouldn't feel right.
04:08My face burned hot.
04:10I had never set foot in a luxury car.
04:15See you at the restaurant.
04:17His two friends waved.
04:23They took off.
04:25Blake stayed put.
04:26He watched me with a dark, meaningful look.
04:29The atmosphere turned thick and heavy.
04:33Just when I was cringing so hard,
04:36he suddenly stepped in my personal space.
04:39His towering frame completely swallowed me.
04:43He leaned down.
04:45His hard chest grazed lightly against mine.
04:48His long fingers set the bunny ears on my head.
04:51His warm knuckles deliberately brushed the sensitive shell of my ear.
04:56A sudden shiver shot straight down my spine.
04:59It's fine if you don't want to tag along.
05:01It's crowded out here.
05:02Stay safe.
05:04Text me when you get home.
05:06His low voice vibrated right against my neck.
05:09A heavy, intoxicating wave of mint and rain-soaked pine crashed into me.
05:13My legs went weak.
05:14By the time I snapped out of the daze,
05:17the Porsche's taillights had already disappeared.
05:20Wait.
05:21Text him?
05:23Did he forget that he never gave me his number?
05:26But after that intense physical proximity,
05:29it felt different.
05:34Exchanging numbers felt like only a matter of time.
05:38My heart hammered wildly against my ribs.
05:46The next day, I was sitting in a cafe with Stephanie.
05:50She shoved her phone screen right into my face.
05:52The moment I saw the contact name Blake on her screen,
05:56I spat out my coffee.
06:00I grabbed her arm and dragged her to a quiet corner.
06:05I snatched the phone right out of her hand.
06:08I swiped up through the chat history.
06:10There were late night flirty texts.
06:12And worse,
06:13my own selfies were right there in the chat.
06:20A rush of hot anger and sheer panic hit me.
06:25My best friend had been sexing my crush using my face.
06:30I yelled right at her.
06:33WTF?
06:34Your online boyfriend is the CS genius from my school?
06:39I'm not good enough for a guy like him.
06:46And you used my photos to catfish him?
06:50She stared at me, her eyes wide.
06:53Her family who what had moved away during high school.
06:56We went to college in the same city,
06:59but different schools.
07:00So she didn't recognize anyone from my school.
07:04What didn't make sense was Blake being on a dating app,
07:07Stefina stammered.
07:09He goes to Arizona University?
07:12You two know each other?
07:16Then she swallowed hard and dropped an even bigger bomb.
07:21Babe, you're not going to believe this,
07:24but I hooked him using your photos.
07:28And the other guy, too.
07:38Are you kidding me?
07:40This was worse than finding out we had no holidays for the entire year.
07:46I swiped out of Blake's chat and tapped the other pinned conversation.
07:50I tapped on the original photo of the other guy.
07:53I'd seen him before.
07:54I'd watched him get into a violent fight the night freshman orientation ended.
07:59His name was Leroy Hatfield.
08:01He was into smoking, fighting, and street racing.
08:06Basically, the most dangerous guy on campus.
08:08I slammed my hand on the cafe table,
08:11spewing every curse word I knew.
08:13Stefani buried her face in her arms on the table and wailed.
08:18I swear, I wasn't serious.
08:22I was just messing around.
08:24Who could have guessed they'd both say yes?
08:26I only found out later that they thought I was you because of my profile pic.
08:32I figured I'd just let you end up with one of them,
08:34so I never explained anything.
08:39I fell back into my chair.
08:41My face was completely solar.
08:44One thing was crystal clear.
08:46If I didn't get this sorted out tonight,
08:48I might as well drop out.
08:51I had to apologize to them in person.
09:00I grabbed Stefani's phone again.
09:05Two unread messages popped up instantly.
09:08One was from Leroy.
09:10Want me to pick you up?
09:12Let's grab something to eat.
09:12The other was from Blake.
09:16You still not home?
09:18A gust of wind slipped through the open cafe door.
09:21It sent a cold shiver down my spine.
09:24Without hesitation, I typed a reply to Leroy.
09:28Send me the address.
09:29I'll grab a cab.
09:30Then I switched to Blake's chat.
09:33I'm home.
09:34About to sleep.
09:36Good night.
09:37I'd clear things up with the bad boy first.
09:39Then deal with the genius.
09:41That was the plan.
09:43Night fell.
09:45The yellow glow of the restaurant lights was exceptionally bright.
09:51As I pushed open the door to the private room,
09:54a terrifying wave of hot air hit my face.
09:59But it felt weird.
10:00Too heavy.
10:02Like the oxygen had been sucked out of the room.
10:06Stefani tugged my sleeve and whispered, trembling.
10:09Does it feel stuffy in here to you?
10:12I nodded stiffly.
10:14Then I looked up and saw Blake sitting right deck to Leroy.
10:17My heart went completely cold.
10:21Shit.
10:22Nobody told me really.
10:24Roy and Blake knew each other.
10:25It was too late to run.
10:29There were other guys in the private room,
10:31drinking and joking around.
10:33But my eyes were fixed on the two massive, intimidating figures.
10:37I had planned to confess everything right away.
10:40But seeing Blake and Lerani sitting together completely derailed my plan.
10:44My courage evaporated.
10:47Seeing them both stand up, I shouted in a panic.
10:53Don't come over!
10:57The laughter and chatter died instantly.
11:01Both of them stared at me.
11:03They looked baffled.
11:05I could barely keep myself upright.
11:08My heart was racing against my ribs.
11:11My mind was buzzing.
11:13How could I blurter out the cat-fatching truth in front of all their friends?
11:19Stephanie steadied me from behind.
11:21She tried to smooth things over.
11:23Well, what Georgia means is you're all schoolmates, so let's just keep things casual.
11:31Getting all formal will only make it weird.
11:35She pinched my shoulder hard.
11:37She flashed a smile that looked more like a grimace.
11:41Right, Georgie?
11:42I grinned at my teeth and nodded.
11:44Yeah.
11:45We're all schoolmates.
11:48Let's keep it casual.
11:50Leroy sat back lazily.
11:54He lit a cigarette.
12:00All right.
12:01Have a seat.
12:02Order whatever you want.
12:04I forced myself to calm down.
12:07I couldn't expose the truth just yet.
12:09I pulled Stefana over to sit by the window.
12:12Blake was on my right.
12:14Leroy next to him.
12:16Stefana leaned in close and whispered in my ear,
12:19I'm so sorry, Georgie.
12:23I never should have added strangers on.
12:28I gently patted her hand.
12:30We'd grown up together.
12:31I knew she wasn't bad at heart.
12:34Suddenly, Leroy scraped his chair back.
12:37He opened his mouth to blow a smoke ring in my direction.
12:40Blake kicked his chair violently.
12:42The room went dead quiet.
12:44Don't blow smoke at her.
12:50My heart pounded wildly.
12:53Blake was so thoughtful.
12:56Leroy stubbed out his cigarette.
12:58He threw a half-joking jab at Blake.
13:01Never seen you be this considerate before.
13:04Don't tell me she's yours.
13:07I snapped my head up.
13:10I met Blake's deep gaze.
13:13He arched in highbrow slightly.
13:16She's my mate.
13:18But I get the feeling she doesn't really want to own up to it.
13:21Mate?
13:22Did he mean it like a soulmate?
13:25Was he talking about the online dating?
13:27My mind went completely blank.
13:32The fork in my hand clattered heavily to the floor.
13:35It wasn't that I didn't want to own up to it.
13:38I couldn't.
13:39Because I wasn't his online girlfriend at all.
13:42Leroy clicked his tongue.
13:44He looked right past me at Stefiana.
13:46You should have said so.
13:47Hey, move over here.
13:49Don't get stuck between them playing third wheel.
13:51I was bending down to pick up the fork.
13:55I froze mid-air.
13:57Third wheel?
13:58Was he talking about Stefana?
14:01Did Leroy actually think Blake and I were a couple?
14:04Before I could process it, Blake pulled me straight up.
14:12He yanked me flush against his hard chest.
14:15He laced his long fingers through mine, locking our hands tightly together.
14:20A jolt ran from my fingertips all the way up my arm.
14:26He lowered his head, his lips almost brushing my ear.
14:32His rough thumb slowly traced the bone on the back of my hand.
14:38Once.
14:39He stared Leroy down, his voice dangerously low.
14:44You got a problem with that?
14:45Leroy fell silent.
14:46He stared at our locked hands.
14:48So did I.
14:49So did everyone else in the room.
14:54In that brief silence, the reality of what Blake just said finally hit Leroy.
15:00He realized Blake wasn't just calling me his girlfriend.
15:04He had used the word...
15:07Mate.
15:10Leroy shot to his feet.
15:12His chair toppled backward onto the floor.
15:14You and Sly Ress Nance will moth about in.
15:16The loud crash echoed off the walls.
15:19He stared at us.
15:21Utterly incredible.
15:23She's your mate?
15:26Blake tightened his grip on my hand and pulled me even closer to his side.
15:30He glanced up lazily.
15:34His dark eyes carried a dangerous weight.
15:39What else?
15:42Yours?
15:44My face burned hot.
15:50I quickly pulled free from Blake's tight grasp and stepped away from his chest.
15:57Things were escalating too fast.
16:00Stephene panicked and tried to stand up to confess everything.
16:05But we couldn't do this in front of an audience.
16:08I grabbed her arm and pressed her back down.
16:11I looked at the crowd of guys in the room.
16:14Can we talk alone?
16:15The others scrambled out immediately.
16:17The room fell into a heavy silence.
16:21Blake had watched every nervous move I made.
16:25He said nothing.
16:28I had a terrible feeling he'd already pieced everything together.
16:33Leroy glared fiercely at me.
16:35Not Stephanie.
16:37He still thought I was the one who had been two-timing him online.
16:42His face was completely stern.
16:44All right.
16:46Talk.
16:46I was just about to bow and apologize for the whole mess.
16:49But Stephene saw Leroy's terrifying anger directed at me.
16:53To protect me, her tear voice rang out from behind.
16:55I'm sorry.
16:57I'm the one who was chatting with you online.
17:02Georgie's only here to take the blame for me.
17:04Leroy froze, realizing he'd been catficked by the crying girl.
17:11He grabbed her by the collar.
17:16He hauled her out of the room before she could finish.
17:42Stephanie had just thrown herself to the wolf and vanished.
17:46Now it was just me and Blake left in the deadly quiet room.
17:50And I was completely defenseless.
17:55Blake tapped the table with his finger.
17:58Georgia.
17:58My back went completely roged.
18:02I slowly turned around.
18:04The warm yellow light fell on his dark hair.
18:07I grabbed the fabric of my jeans tightly.
18:13Leroy doesn't hit people, does he?
18:16He does.
18:18But he never hits women.
18:20Couldn't he have said that in one breath?
18:26Let's go.
18:28I stared at his outstretched hand.
18:31I gripped the hem of my shirt hard.
18:33Are you sure about this?
18:37With a face like Blake's, he was 100% my type.
18:41But after reading those intense flirty texts he sent to my photos,
18:45holding his hand felt completely off.
18:47I couldn't even look him in the eye.
18:49He stepped closer.
18:50His towering frame practically boxing me in.
18:53He tilted his head down, locking his dark eyes onto mine.
18:59We're schoolmates.
19:01Is there something wrong with you grabbing my jacket for me?
19:04I blinked.
19:05I sprang up and yanked his jacket off the wall hook.
19:08My face burned crimson.
19:14Not at all.
19:16So damn embarrassing.
19:25He draped the jacket over his firm arm.
19:29Let's go schoolmate.
19:31I could have sworn he put a little extra weight on the word schoolmate.
19:36I trotted over and forced a smile.
19:40Let's go.
19:44Outside.
19:44The night air was chilly.
19:47Blake slicked down a taxi.
19:49He owned a Porsche, so I assumed he was just calling the cab for me.
19:55I slipped into the back seat.
19:59Just as I reached for the door, he climbed in too.
20:02His large frame squeezed into the tight, tight space right beside me.
20:06He gave the driver Stefana's address.
20:09He pulled the door shut in one fluid action.
20:12My jaw dropped.
20:18Suddenly, he leaned all the way in.
20:22He wrapped his jacket around my shoulders and pulled it snug.
20:26A heavy wave of mint and rain-soaked pine flooded over me.
20:31The masculine scent wrapped around my body like a warm blanket.
20:35I shrunk back against the car seat.
20:37His broad chest was just inches from my face.
20:39My breath caught.
20:43He looked down at me for a long moment.
20:45Then he finally pulled back.
20:47He leaned against the seat and rested his arm right behind my head.
20:55Leroy took my car to drive Stefanie home.
20:58Leroy took my car to drive Stefanie home.
21:01He just sent me the address and told me to take you.
21:04Huh?
21:06Oh, okay.
21:07He turned his head to look at me and asked.
21:11Have you seen the chat history between Stefanie and me?
21:13I nodded slowly.
21:16Kind of.
21:18What do you think?
21:19His dark gaze was incredibly loaded.
21:22I thought he was just embarrassed about his secret being exposed.
21:29I raised my hand like taking an oath and spoke with absolute sincerity.
21:34Once again, I'm apologizing on Stefanie's behalf.
21:38And I promise I will absolutely, absolutely never breathe a word to enter into online dating.
21:48The temperature in the small cab instantly dropped to freezing.
21:53Blake stiffened.
21:54He turned his head away sharply to stare out the dark window.
21:59Good to know.
22:02The taxi pulled up outside Stefanie's building.
22:04I reached for the door handle.
22:06The silence between us was absolutely deafening.
22:11He'd said good to know like it was the last word on the subject.
22:15But the way he gripped the car door handle told me something else.
22:19This dangerous conversation was far from over.
22:24Early the next morning, a drizzle began to fall.
22:28Blake had let me keep his jacket when I got out of the taxi last night.
22:32Holding an umbrella, I took it to the dry cleaner.
22:36It was across the street from campus.
22:41Before handing it over, I buried my face in the fabric and inhaled deeply.
22:46Mint and rain-soaked pine.
22:49It was still there.
22:50The shop owner stared at me.
22:51He didn't say a word.
22:53Then I headed through the school gate.
22:55As I reached the sports field, a few girls' voices drifted toward me.
23:01Check it out!
23:06Holy crap!
23:07Blake and Leroy know each other?
23:09Why are you so surprised?
23:11Hot guys hang out with hot guys.
23:13It's basically a law of nature.
23:15I stopped and turned to follow their line of sight.
23:19Blake stood near the school gate without an umbrella.
23:22The hood of his black sweatshirt was pulled up over his head.
23:26Maybe it was because he was standing next to Leroy.
23:28But even he seemed to carry a dangerous, roguish edge.
23:34Just then, someone shouted.
23:39Georgia!
23:42Georgia!
23:43It was Kelly, my loud-mouthed roommate and the absolute center of campus gossip.
23:49She was running toward me under a pink umbrella.
23:52Her voice was loud enough to draw several stares, including Leroy Hatfield's and Blake Samsees.
23:57My whole body stiffened.
23:58What's up?
24:03Still catching her breath, Kelly spoke.
24:06Is it true you went to dinner with Blake and the others last night?
24:09What the hell?
24:11Who told her that?
24:16Before she could say another word, I slapped both my hands over her mouth.
24:20It's not true.
24:23Don't ever say things like that again.
24:29She blinked.
24:31With a sly look, she pointed her finger right past my shoulder.
24:35I turned around.
24:38Leroy and Blake stood barely a step away.
24:42I took a quick step back and flashed an awkward smile.
24:47Hey, what a coincidence.
24:50Tiny raindrops clung to Blake Samson's dark bangs.
24:54He leaned his tall frame down, completely blocking my view of anything else.
24:59Coincidence?
25:00Really?
25:02We're all schoolmates here.
25:04Running into each other on campus
25:07is hardly a coincidence.
25:11Don't you think?
25:13My face went scarlet.
25:16Completely oblivious to the thick romantic tench, Kelly jumped in.
25:20She pointed at Blake Samson's pulled-up hood,
25:23which gave him a dangerous street vibe.
25:29Blake, that whole vibe you've got going on right now?
25:32You look exactly like my cousin.
25:35Her cousin was a notorious local punk.
25:38Leroy, the resident bad boy, immediately took that personally.
25:42Like me?
25:43When he really goes off, even I wouldn't take him lightly.
25:47My phone alarm suddenly blared in my pocket.
25:49I pulled it out and silenced it immediately.
25:53All right, all right, tough guys, both of you.
25:55Now if you'll excuse me, I've got a class to get to.
25:59Then I spun around and bolted into the lecture hall at a full sprint.
26:04I didn't dare look back, but I could feel his heavy gaze on my back the whole way.
26:13After class, I was scrolling through the campus gossip app on my back to the door.
26:19Some rich kid posted a ridiculous dare.
26:22A $300,000 in reward for anyone who could prove they still had their first kiss.
26:27I rolled my eyes and typed a quick reply.
26:31Yeah, hard pass on that $300,000.
26:35Keep your money.
26:38Great.
26:40Right as I hit send, my phone buzzed.
26:42It was Kelly.
26:43Class is over, right?
26:45Get your ass to the BQ joint just off campus.
26:48I grabbed the big corner booth.
26:50She had tried to drag me out to dorm parties before, and I always bailed.
27:00Turning her down again would just make me look like a total buzzkill.
27:06All right, be right there.
27:08I changed direction and headed straight for the local grill.
27:18I pushed through the heavy wooden doors and found Kelly in the back booth.
27:23The table was completely covered in massive plates of ribs, brisket, and loaded nachos.
27:30I slid into the booth and stared at the ridiculous amount of food.
27:35Jeez, Kel.
27:36Isn't this way too much food for just the two of us?
27:41She tossed a napkin at me across the table.
27:45Chill.
27:46We're still waiting on some people.
27:51Just then, a waiter walked over and dropped off a giant metal bucket of iced beers and a bottle of
27:58wine.
27:59I immediately put my hands up defensively.
28:01I'm sitting out on the drinks.
28:03You know I can't handle my liquor.
28:04Even as I said it, I cringed inwardly.
28:09I really was a total lightweight.
28:11At my high school grad party, I had one single white club.
28:15I ended up hugging a street lamp outside the party for an hour, bawling my eyes out and refusing to
28:21let go.
28:22I swore off alcohol after that night.
28:26Relax.
28:27Somebody will drink it.
28:28Kelly grabbed a bottle and hooked the cap with the edge of her fork.
28:32With a sharp pop, foam spilled over the top.
28:36I clapped my hands in amazement.
28:38Okay, that is freaking impressive.
28:41A low, magnetic laugh sounded right behind me.
28:46You think that's impressive?
28:48I can do that too.
28:50I knew it was Blake without even turning around.
28:53He slid into the tight booth, sitting right parallel to me.
28:57He took a deep breath.
29:00His broad shoulders visibly dropped, completely relaxing against the seat.
29:08He propped his chin on his hand and turned his body toward me.
29:14Why have you been ignoring my text today?
29:17You were pretty bold the other night.
29:19I thought he meant the way I hit on him at the Halloween party.
29:26The words spilled out before my brain could filter them.
29:31That's because the bunny cop...
29:32Blake froze completely.
29:34He definitely hadn't expected me to bring that up.
29:37Leroy and Kelly burst into loud laughter.
29:41Mortified, I dropped my head onto the table, wanting the floor to swallow me whole.
29:47Being a sucker for a hot face really ruins everything.
29:53Blake leaned heavily into my space.
29:55His chest practically trapped me against the table.
29:58Next time, I'll wear those ears just for you.
30:01In private.
30:02His hot breath feigned across my neck.
30:04I jolt backward, my back hitting the booth.
30:06My face burned like a furnace.
30:08I grabbed the nearest glass on the table in a panic.
30:10I tilted my head back and chugged the entire thing.
30:14A strong burning sensation hit the back of my throat.
30:18It wasn't beer.
30:19It was red wine.
30:22Kelly's eyes went wide.
30:23Whoa!
30:25Didn't you just say you don't drink?
30:28I slammed the empty glass onto the table.
30:31I let out a loud hiccup.
30:34Yeah, but one glass never hurt anyone.
30:37Before Kelly could stop me, I grabbed the wine bottle and poured myself another round.
30:47The alcohol hit my brain instantly.
30:51I was completely hyped up.
30:54Blake grabbed a napkin.
30:58He leaned over and wiped a drop of wine from the corner of my chow.
31:01I think I need to order you some milk.
31:04I grabbed his wrist before he could pull his hand away.
31:10I leaned right into his face, mimicking his earlier whisper.
31:15Easy.
31:16Handsome.
31:17Don't tempt me.
31:19I have zero self-control.
31:21Right now.
31:22Blake burst into laughter.
31:24His broad chest shook against my arm.
31:27He leaned back, his voice dropping an octave.
31:33Baby, you haven't seen anything yet.
31:36Across the table, Leroy pulled out his phone.
31:42He aggressively hit the voice record button.
31:45If your friend Stephanie isn't here in ten minutes, I'm posting all her voice notes on
31:51her campus forum.
31:53I aggressively stood up and pointed a finger at Leroy.
31:58Leave her alone!
32:00You and Blake should just date each other!
32:03You'd make a hot couple!
32:09Leroy dropped his phone onto the table.
32:13He glared fiercely at Blake.
32:15Are you seriously going to let her run her mouth like that?
32:19Wow.
32:19I really hit a nerve.
32:21Before I could provoke Leroy any further, Blake grabbed my waist.
32:25He pulled me hard into his side, forcing me to sit back down.
32:28He wrapped his heavy arm around my shoulder.
32:31His large hand firmly held the back of my neck.
32:35My tense muscles melted into his touch.
32:38Blake stared at Leroy and spoke flatly.
32:41I'm straight.
32:41My drunk brain struggled to process that.
32:46I slumped against his chest.
32:48I felt a weird sense of sadness.
32:50Why wasn't he into men?
32:52It was such a waste of a perfectly good face.
32:56Before I could voice my drunk disappointment, the heavy door to the restaurant violently swung open.
33:06Stephanie burst through the heavy restaurant door, panting heavily.
33:09The second she saw me sitting on Blake's lap with an empty wine glass, she completely freaked out.
33:20You drank?
33:22You drank without me last time and now you've done it again?
33:26I tried to push myself off Blake Samsey's lap, puffing out my chest with misplaced confidence.
33:33It was right there in front of me.
33:36Not drinking it would be a crime.
33:39Stephanie cringed hard, completely speechless.
33:43She rushed over, grabbed my bag off the table, and threw her hands up defensively at Blake and Leroy.
33:49She turns into a completely different person when she drinks.
33:53Sorry you guys had to deal with this.
33:55Without giving anyone a second to react, she hauled me off Blake and pulled me to my feet.
34:01She threw my arm over her shoulder and tried to drag me out of the booth.
34:08But my drunk body was basically dead weight.
34:11With a dull thut, both of us collapsed onto the sticky restaurant floor.
34:16That was, without question, the most humiliating moment of my entire life.
34:21And the worst part, I hadn't even remembered half of what I did that night yet.
34:34The next morning, my head was splitting.
34:37The absolute worst part, I hadn't forgotten a single thing.
34:41The memories didn't just come back.
34:43They assaulted my brain in full HD detail.
34:47Blake sat on the edge of the bed, trying to pull the blanket over me.
34:52Instead, I aggressively grabbed his collar and straddled his lap.
34:55My hands practically tore at his shirt, completely unbuckling his belt in one frantic motion.
35:01I ran my hot palms all over his hard, ridged abs.
35:08I stared right into his darkening eyes and shouted,
35:12You've got some serious muscle on you.
35:16Why don't you let me test that out in bed?
35:18The memory hit me like a truck.
35:20I was completely devastated.
35:22I yanked the thick blanket over my head.
35:25Squirreled in bed, and kicked my legs wildly.
35:29How am I ever supposed to face anyone again?
35:32As I kept thrashing, I suddenly realized, realized,
35:36my leg was thrown over something heavy and solid.
35:42Wait.
35:43I knew Stefan was wild, but this wild?
35:49Keeping my eyes tightly closed under the blanket,
35:53I reached out.
35:54My fingers traced over a broad, bare chest,
35:58trailing down to a dangerously low V-line.
36:02A low, incredibly shutty groan vibrated right next to my ear.
36:07I hastily flung the blanket aside and saw Blake's face inches from mine.
36:15His shirt was completely unbuttoned, exposing flawless muscle.
36:20His dark, heavy gaze swept over me.
36:24A lazy, heated smile formed on his lips.
36:29You were at it until the middle of the night and you've still not had enough?
36:33Then I noticed the bed sheets right next to his clenched fist.
36:37Deep, aggressive scratch marks tore right through the fabric.
36:40Four parallel lines ripped straight through the mattress.
36:45My eyes widened in absolute horror at the aggressive scratch marks on the bed.
36:50Blake followed my stare.
36:52Without a word, he casually grabbed the ruined sheet and flipped that section over.
36:57Blushing furiously, I scrambled backward until my back hit the headboard.
37:01I snatched the blanket and tugged it all the way up to my chin.
37:05I thought you were Stephanie.
37:08He leaned closer, propping his tall, half-naked frame up on one elbow.
37:13Last night, too?
37:14I opened my mouth, then closed it.
37:17I swore a silent vow.
37:18If I ever touched alcohol again, I was doomed.
37:23Last night?
37:24I don't really remember anything.
37:26Blake didn't look surprised at my blatant lie.
37:28He nodded, his mourning voice thick and raspy.
37:33So you're planning to deny it after we slept together?
37:37It's fine.
37:38We're schoolmates, after all.
37:40Slept together?
37:41My eyes flew open in pure panic.
37:43That's ridiculous!
37:44I just felt you up a little!
37:47How does that count as sleeping together?
37:49He trapped my gaze, a slow, victorious smirk spreading across his face.
37:53He had tricked that confession out of me so easily.
37:56Blake pulled his dark hoodie out from under my pillow.
37:59He tugged it over his messy hair, his ripped abs flashing clearly before the fabric dropped.
38:05Why'd you stop talking?
38:07Don't tell me you're actually starting to remember now.
38:15I couldn't handle his intense teasing anymore.
38:19I grabbed my clothes, scrambled off the bed, and bolted out of the bedroom.
38:26Still trying to calm my racing heart, I sneaked out into the living room.
38:30Leroy and Stephanie were curled up together, sound asleep on the sofa.
38:34Those two really did make a great couple.
38:36One was strikingly handsome, and the other was just striking hilarious.
38:40Damn, Stephanie was so lucky.
38:44I was just about to sneak out the front door when Blake walked up behind me.
38:48He grabbed my bag strap.
38:52He pulled me straight out of the apartment and into the chilly morning air.
38:58Once we were on the sidewalk, he let go of my bag.
39:01Why are you jealous?
39:02You were wrapped around someone last night, too.
39:05There was a huge difference between being forced into something and doing it willingly, okay?
39:11I trotted down the street, utterly deflated.
39:15I walked up to the bike rack and unlocked my bicycle.
39:22But just as I grabbed the handlebars, Blake stepped right in front of the bike and seized them.
39:27He leaned his upper body down, trapping me entirely.
39:32There was a dangerous shift in his dark gaze.
39:38He must be furious about how aggressively I manhandled him last night.
39:43For a moment, time seemed to stand completely still.
39:46He frowned slightly.
39:47Did I upset you?
39:50I stared at him, completely thrown off guard.
39:55What?
39:56You're the one who's upset, aren't you?
40:00He reached out and pulled the hood of my sweatshirt over my head.
40:07His long fingers brushed my hair back as he adjusted the fabric.
40:13I was pretty mad last time.
40:15But not this time.
40:16I stared at him, completely lost.
40:19Ignoring his strangely tender gesture, I flicked the bike bell aggressively with my thumb.
40:27You mean that time on Halloween?
40:31He smiled, his gaze turning exceptionally teasing.
40:35The time you used me as a telephone pole.
40:41His low, deep voice reached my ears, and I froze dead on the spot.
40:47Telephone pole?
40:49Thanks to that terrifying revelation, I got out of there as fast as I possibly could.
40:53I pedaled that bike down the sidewalk like it was a damn motorcycle fleeing the scene.
41:03Back in my dorm, I immediately text a girl who went to my high school grad party.
41:09I aggressively interrogated her about every single detail from that night.
41:18A minute later, she sent me a video clip.
41:20I shoved my airpods in and hit play.
41:25The video was taken outside the map of the house where the after party was held.
41:33A tall guy in a Westview High varsity jacket was leaning against the brick wall.
41:39A totally wasted girl was standing right in front of him.
41:44Suddenly, without any warning, she launched herself forward.
41:51She locked her legs tight around his waist and started aggressively making out with him.
41:56Honestly, it looked more like she was trying to gnaw his face off.
42:01My eyes went wide in pure horror.
42:05I closed the clip and instantly deleted it from my phone.
42:10That psycho girl was me.
42:15And that telephone pole in the Westview High varsity jacket was Blake.
42:20We didn't go to the same high school.
42:22I was a massive nerd back then, buried in AP prep book.
42:27So it made perfect sense why I had zero idea who he was.
42:30The chaotic video clip and what happened this morning collided in my brain.
42:35My face burned hot.
42:36I seriously wanted to cry.
42:44After my afternoon lecture, I ran straight into Blake and his frat brothers in the busy hallway.
42:54I yanked the draw rings of my hoodie incredibly tight, hiding my face.
42:58I kept my head down and tried to speed walk right past him.
43:08Georgia.
43:10The second his deep voice called my name, I broke into a jog, but his large hand shat out and
43:17caught my arm, stopping me dead in my tracks.
43:24He gently tugged my hood down.
43:28When he saw my red watery eyes, he looked genuinely stunned.
43:36Have you been crying?
43:37His warm thumb gently brushed my cheek.
43:43Just once, I shook my head frantically.
43:46No, I was just sleepy.
43:48I was definitely not crying over the fact that I had drunkenly sexually assaulted the hottest guy on campus.
44:01Twice.
44:05Besides the frat brothers standing with him, more and more nosy students were clustering around us in the hallway.
44:16I looked up at Blake's stunning face.
44:19After holding my breath for a long moment, I decided to just lay it all out.
44:27Blake, I'm sorry.
44:30I know I was completely out of line, so could you please just...
44:36Just what?
44:38He looked stunned again.
44:40I turtled my neck back into my hoodie and spoke, my voice barely above a whisper.
44:45Not be mad at me, and not think I'm some kind of creep.
44:55He let out an exasperated, breathy laugh.
44:58Then he turned around and casually tossed his heavy textbooks to the guy behind him.
45:09Dude, do me a solid. Take my books back.
45:12I need to find somewhere to take care of my mate.
45:14The busy hallway went dead quiet for exactly one second.
45:18A guy walking toward me actually froze mid-step.
45:22Then he awkwardly spun around and walked the other way.
45:26After that one second of stunned silence, the whole corridor exploded into wild cheers and whoops.
45:35And somewhere in the middle of all that chaotic noise,
45:38my own heart was pounding so hard I could hear it in my ears.
45:45Blake grabbed my hand and led me into the empty stairwell.
45:48The heavy door shut, cutting off the noise.
45:52Everything was completely quiet.
45:55He gripped my waist, lifted me up easily, and set me down on the concrete window ledge.
46:04Then he let out a heavy sigh.
46:08No better spot on campus than this.
46:11Make do for me, okay?
46:13My face was practically on fire.
46:15I gripped his broad shoulders, too nervous to even move.
46:21This is fine.
46:24After a long moment of intense silence, he finally spoke.
46:28I'm not mad at you. I'm mad at myself.
46:33I was pissed that I turned into such an idiot.
46:37Getting kissed by a gorgeous girl at a party and not even managing to get her number.
46:42That I actually mistook someone else for her.
46:46Huh?
46:49Seeing the raw frustration in his dark eyes, I dropped my head and mumbled.
46:55It's not your fault. Don't beat yourself up over it.
47:01Blake slid his large hand to the nape of my neck.
47:03He slowly, steadily neared the sensitive skin right there, like he was savoring the touch.
47:09Then, he lowered his head and leaned in incredibly close.
47:13I clutched his dark hoodie with both hands and held my breath.
47:20His voice was rushy as he confessed everything.
47:23He told me he'd actually seen my photos on the Arizona State University forum.
47:27Before he even had the chance to bump into me on campus, a social app suggested me as a contact.
47:33On Halloween night, Stephanie had added him through that app and messaged him.
47:40Want to try online dating, cutie?
47:42He thought it was me.
47:43He said yes without a second thought.
47:46But overjoyed, he agreed to meet his boys at the theme park, just so he could casually run into me.
47:52Noticing how tense I was, he hadn't pushed for my number, figuring we'd have plenty of time later.
47:58Who knew it would blow up into such a massive, chaotic farce?
48:03Hearing him admit all this, my pulse hammered wildly in my throat.
48:09So he was into me this whole time?
48:11I could barely contain the massive grin spreading across my face.
48:16I glanced around, the stair room was totally empty.
48:19I leaned forward and pressed a quick, bold kiss right to his lips.
48:26Blake, you must be absolutely head over heels for me too.
48:31Instead of answering, his large hand cupped, cupped the back of my head.
48:35He kissed me hard.
48:37My little peck was nothing compared to this.
48:40His kiss was deep, fierce, and entirely claiming, leaving my lips tingling and tingling and numb.
48:48When he finally pulled back, his eyes flashed a brilliant, primal gold.
48:55The light in the stair hell must be weird.
48:59The news that Blake and I were dating had already blown up the campus forum ages ago,
49:05even before we actually got together.
49:09That comment I left about the $300,000 year of dare, Blake had replied to it.
49:15You want to kiss me and walk away with $300,000?
49:19You might have to kiss me again.
49:22The replies beneath it were absolute chaos.
49:25OMG, can you two get any sweeter?
49:27Gonna go watch a true crime doc to balance myself out.
49:34Please delete this. It's disrupting my inner peace.
49:39When are my bestie and I gonna trip and fall into a romance like this?
49:44I read those comments in my dorm, laughing so hard my stomach ached.
49:49On Saturday, Blake texted me a location pin and told me to meet him there at 5pm on Sunday.
49:56I blushed furiously. The address was a luxury five-star hotel downtown.
50:01I nervously texted back, okay.
50:04The next day, I dressed to the nines and headed to the hotel.
50:08I picked up the key card at the front desk and walked into the suite.
50:12But Blake wasn't there.
50:15Only a ridiculously decorated room stared back at me.
50:19Massive bunkays, floating balloons, the whole romantic setup.
50:25Honestly, it was kind of tacky.
50:32Wait, sitting right in the middle of the rose petals was a shiny Maserati key fog.
50:38Down in the hotel parking lot, I had walked past a massive transparent display box with a pink
50:44Maserati inside. I had assumed some crazy rich guy was pulling off an over-the-top proposal.
50:51Turned out, that crazy rich guy was mine.
50:55Fine.
50:56Forget everything I just thought about Tacky and Nouveau Richa.
50:59This was amazing. Just as I pulled out my phone to call Blake, the bathroom door swung open from the
51:04inside.
51:06And there he stood. Blake, the untouchable campus genius, was dressed in a full bunny cop uniform.
51:16A pair of pink bunny ears was perched perfectly on his dark hair.
51:21Gosh, there was even a fluffy little pom-pom attached to the back.
51:26Through the gap in the open door behind him, I caught a glimpse of one of his frat brothers out
51:31in the hallway.
51:32The guy's jaw was practically on the floor, looking like he had just witnessed a federal crime.
51:38It was literally the cutest, most ridiculous thing I had ever seen.
51:42I smirked and crooked a finger at him.
51:46Come here. Let me get a good look at you.
51:51Amused, he let out a low, rumbling chuckle.
51:54He walked over, bent down effortlessly, and pressed a soft kiss to my forehead.
52:02Georgia, you're my mate. I want you to be mine.
52:10He steps forward, completely cornering me against the bathroom doorframe.
52:17His eyes aren't dark anymore. They are glowing, brilliant, unmistakable gold.
52:25I slowly reach up, my trembling fingers brushing the skin right beneath his glowing eye.
52:32It isn't a trick of the light. It is real.
52:34I grab the lapels of his ridiculous bunny cop uniform.
52:39I bury my face right into his broad chest and take a deep, slow breath.
52:48That familiar, icy scent wraps around my senses, grounding me instantly.
52:56My frantically racing heart calms down the second I press against him.
53:01His broad shoulders visibly drop.
53:06His large hands wrap tightly around my waist, pulling me flush against his body.
53:13No crazy werewolf myths. No complicated magic.
53:17Just this intense, undeniable physical gravity pulling us together.
53:23I pull back slightly, look up at the pink bunny ears perched on his head, and smile.
53:29I playfully flick the fluffy ponbon attached to his chest.
53:33For real?
53:39Blake freezes completely.
53:41His glowing eyes widen in genuine shock.
53:44His grip on my waist tightening, like he is terrified I might run.
53:49What do you think?
53:53Prove it.
53:55How?
53:58I grab his uniform belt and forcefully pull his tall frame down to my level.
54:03I stand on my tiptoes and whisper right against his ear.
54:08He lets out a low, whispered growl.
54:13He grabs the back of my feet, lifting me entirely off the ground.
54:19His large hands slide up just enough to give my ass a firm, incredibly intimate squeeze.
54:26A dark, dangerous smile forms on his lips.
54:31Sure, if you've got the guts to watch.
54:34He crushes his lips against mine in a fierce, breathless kiss.
54:40He doesn't just claim me because some magical fate pushed him to do it.
54:45He chooses me with every single move.
