Chapter 40: Double My Effort

Oliver's POV

I was looking at Victoria with wide eyes, and she was smiling at me the entire time. And when she started caressing my fur, I couldn't stop myself from feeling so hot even if the air-conditioning unit in her room was in full blast, and I knew she was making my wolf self in full alert, and I couldn't stop myself from thinking of claiming her entire body and soul.

Victoria was gawking at me, and I wanted to talk with her, but I needed to wait, and I know I am impatient in almost everything that I do. Still, with Victoria, I needed to control myself, and I should exercise some patience if I wanted to have her in my life. She was talking non-stop until I could see her fighting her drowsiness, and I wanted to laugh at her when she could no longer contain herself from falling asleep, 

The moment Victoria dozed off, I shifted into my human form right away, and I was caressing her hair while I could hear her soft breathing; I loved watching Victoria sleep, and I couldn't stop myself from smiling when I realized she had a dream. And I wondered if she was dreaming about me.

How I wish I could show my real self to her, and being this close with Victoria made my entire body feel so warm, and I wanted to kiss her slightly opened mouth. And it took a lot of my self-control not to claim her sweet lips because I didn't want to risk being caught. 

I was staring at her lovely face before I transformed myself into my wolf form again since I didn't want to ruin my chance to be with her again for the coming nights until her eighteenth birthday. And when Victoria snuggled on my body, I couldn't stop myself from feeling so thrilled.

And I wished her transition would happen without any complications, and I know the elders ordered me to be there for her every step of the way, but knowing that I felt something for her made it more exciting. I wished Declan would stay away from Victoria the moment he realized Victoria Winner is mine. But I know it will never happen because he could be a pain in the ass.

I know every time I am with Victoria, time passes too quickly, and I don't want the night to end as I felt her arm curled around my body, and the warmth of her body against mine feels so lovely, and I wanted to have Victoria always beside me. 

And how I hoped I listened to Zane and to the elders of our pack to come and visit Victoria when she was younger and befriended her, and I know it is too late for me to have regrets, and all I could do right now is to make an effort to make her get closer with me.

By the time she opened her eyes and caught me staring at her; Victoria beamed at me, and when she kissed my head, I wanted to let her know it was me, Oliver, but I didn't want her to hate me, so I behaved and listened to her talk with me like I am her best friend, and when she said she wanted to spend another night with me, I couldn't stop myself from feeling so happy and excited.

I returned to my room, grinning from ear to ear, and I shifted back to my human form right away. I was singing as I took a shower, and I was excited to drive Victoria to school, but when I was ready to leave, I knocked on her door, and I realized she had already left, and when I arrived at the parking lot, I could no longer see her car, and I felt so frustrated. 

And instead of driving my car, I chose to drive my big bike, smiling as I ran back to my bedroom to get an extra helmet. I was planning to take Victoria on a date tonight, and I know she loves riding with me on my motorcycle since I can still remember how she liked the last time I took her home with my big bike.

I was wearing a white t-shirt with black jeans, and I drove away from the Winner mansion with a wide grin on my face. But my happiness and excitement were cut short when I reached the Academy's parking lot and found Declan beat me in giving Victoria flowers. 

I am pissed at him since I was planning to buy Victoria a bouquet later tonight. I felt so hurt when I saw her smiling when Declan whispered something in her ear, and I wanted to punch his face, but I knew I couldn't afford to face the guidance counselor once again since she warned us to control ourselves. So, I left the parking lot as I felt the sting on my chest.

"Hey, Oliver!" Keisha greeted me when I found her standing inside the locker room, and I could tell she was waiting for me.

"Hello, Keisha." I greeted her back, and she walked closer to me, and she held my arm right away, and I wanted to pull my arm away from her, but I didn't want to hurt her feelings, and I could tell she could be a good diversion as I remembered Victoria's happy face as she was talking with Declan.

"I know you wanted to avoid me, but I could tell Victoria is fascinated with Declan, and I am sorry to tell you, they look good together, Oliver." Keisha declared, and I couldn't stop myself from curling my fists on my side since I felt so jealous, and I know I don't have any right yet to get jealous since she is not yet my girlfriend.

"I know how much you like, Victoria, Oliver, but I already told you, she doesn't care about someone's feelings. She always loves to have the attention of everyone, but she never pays attention to anybody." Keisha declared.

"If I were you, I would never waste my time with Victoria because it would only become useless since this is the first time I saw her interested in a guy, and it wasn't you, Oliver. I could tell she loved Declan's company, and I could see their chemistry, and they looked so good together." She added, and I could no longer hide the pain in my face.

"But the good thing is I am here, Oliver; you can use me if you want. I don't care if that is the only way to be with you." She continued, and this time, I raised my eyebrows at her.

"Keisha, you may think I am a playboy, but I don't love playing with girls," I responded, and I could see the hurt on her beautiful face.

"Oliver, it doesn't make you a playboy; just think about it like I was offering my help to you. And if you need my help, don't hesitate to come to me; I am willing to give you anything, Oliver, even my body. I am already eighteen, and we can do anything we want with our bodies." She said with a seductive smile, and I could tell she was serious with her words, and I knew she wanted to seduce me.

"Okay, thank you for the offer, Keisha, I appreciate your honesty, and I am grateful for your concern, and don't worry if ever I need your help, I will not hesitate to come to you," I responded, and I could see the disappointments on her face.

"Oliver, I am telling you, you needed my help right now." She said.

"No, Keisha, you need to believe me; I don't need your help as of the moment," I replied.

"I hate you, Oliver," Keisha answered and stomped her feet before she turned her heels away from me without taking a second glance, and I don't want to complicate things with Victoria; that is the reason I didn't want to spend another time with Keisha since I wanted Victoria to know I am single and available.

I opened my locker and pulled out my books for all my morning subjects, and with a heavy heart, I walked towards our classroom for our first period since I didn't want to go to the library knowing Victoria would be there with Declan.

I was the first student who got inside our classroom, and I slumped my body on my seat as I faced the board. And I noticed our classmates started to get inside, and I was waiting for Victoria, and I could no longer hide the pain and anger on my face when I saw her get inside our room with Declan, and she was still hugging the bouquet on her chest.

And for the first time, I admit I felt so jealous that I wanted to hit Declan's face as he gave me a sinister smile as he brought Victoria's bag and books.

"The show has just started, Oliver," Declan said as he beamed at me when he settled himself on the vacant chair next to me.

"You better shut up, and stop what you are doing, Declan." I hissed, but I tried to keep my voice low since I didn't want our classmates to know that we were still not on good terms

"Can you see the happiness on her face, Oliver? It only means she likes me, so you better go back to Gallant, or go to another city to look for your mate, because no one can claim Victoria except me because she is mine." He declared.

And I wanted to tell Declan to go to hell, but my words died on my lips when I saw our teacher get inside our room.. I realized I needed to double my effort because I would never allow Declan to have Victoria, even if I felt so hurt right now as I watched Victoria inhaling the fresh flowers on her hands.
