When Gemma is forced to accept the trouble-making celebrity as a client, her worst nightmare is realized: he begins to grow on her - kind of like a fungus.

"Will you stop being a brainless jealous jerk for once Xander?" I exclaimed to him. His nostrils flared with anger and the intensity with which he was looking at me was doing something within me, I felt bothered. "I'm not jealous. Why would I be?" He spat angrily but with no eye contact. "So, you're not?" I challenged him. "Nope." He said with seriousness but I know him well. "Then don't you come barging through the door interrupting my date and ruining it. I have my own life to live which doesn't involve you." I said the exact same words he said to me earlier. "Fine. I won't ever try to meddle anymore." He said and then started to make his way towards the door. But I know him well, I am his mate after all. I know what he feels. He is broken inside and out. He wants me to push away just because he thinks that I being near him destroys me. I made my way towards him before he could turn the knob of the door of my bedroom to leave.

His hands which we were on his sides wrapped around my waist and brought me impossibly closer to him. ... Xander King is ruthless, cold, possessive and a feral werewolf with the darkest soul.

But I did use the time template of classes from Vashon High School, my school... that's about it.]
