Helanie:
"No!" I shook my head, looking away awkwardly. Had this been going on in his head all this ti?
"What no?" He sounded offended that my response was like that.
"It can’t be. It wasn’t a full moon, and I didn’t even feel anything," I whispered under my breath, hoping that would make him retract his thoughts, but he confidently shook his head.
"You don’t have a wolf, and also, because it wasn’t a full moon. And you know, those who don’t have a fully active wolf cannot feel the mate bond after the first ti. And sadly, our first ti was without the full moon, so now we have to wait for you to have a wolf to feel it again," he was explaining confidently, shrugging like this news didn’t bother him.
He seed to be enjoying the thought of being mates with .
"Exactly, how can we feel the mate bond without a wolf moon?" I let out a laugh, a rather awkward one. So that he doesn’t feel embarrassed and accepts that he is wrong in his observation.
"Helanie, it has to be a special bond, a mate bond then. Look, I know what I felt, so I am in the clear. Now, if it is too much for you to be mated to a dashing, powerful rogue king like —" he had a smirk on his face, his voice all husky this ti.
"Well, I guess I will have to wait for my wolf to wake up then," I quickly sidestepped him, moving over to the side to avoid being in his sight.
"I won’t wait. I will pursue you, and I am shalessly admitting it. I just cannot wait for you to be in my class," he mumbled in his beautiful voice and shocked .
He was so excited, but why? Didn’t they hate ?
"My mom stole your father from your mother," I stated, reminding him because I thought he had forgotten.
I wouldn’t let him have too many thoughts about us being mates because I knew that was not true. My pheromones had confused him so much.
"And you are nothing like her. Listen, I get it. You are trying hard to get this kind of thing, and I am not afraid of a little challenge," he shrugged, moving to the other side.
I didn’t know how to respond to him anymore, so I stayed silent.
"Let walk you back to the hostel. It is getting late." Finally, he stopped using that flirtatious tone and offered to walk to the hostel.
I would have asked him if I was managed, but the rogue world was a dangerous world, especially after the sun went down.
I started walking behind him. He humd a few songs on the way that comforted into thinking my life was normal too.
But what confused so much was the fact that I once desperately wanted to be accepted by soone. So when Altan stretched his hand out for , I accepted it happily.
But then, now that I have n pursuing , I cannot hold their hands.
He left after we were near the hostel, and I went back inside. My body tensed up instantly at the thought of facing that alpha.
I was beyond scared because of the way I would have to face him, because I was close friends with Jenny.
"Helanie." Lamar found before anybody else did. I was standing by the elevator, looking around all worried when he arrived. I didn’t have ti to speak with him out in the open, so I stepped into the elevator, but he quickly joined .
Now he leaned back, his arms crossed over his chest, and his eyes observing .
"What happened?" he finally spoke up when I didn’t answer his silent gaze.
"Nothing. Gavin and I had a little argunt. He was upset that we don’t treat him the sa way we do Lucy," I spoke, not eting his eyes.
"Is that all?" he asked, and my body tensed up, but I only nodded my head.
"Yep!"
We got off on our floor and made it to our room, where Lucy was already in bed.
"Did sothing else happen?" I asked Lamar, who gestured for to get on the balcony with him so that we didn’t wake up Lucy. We sat on the balcony, and he brought out his special stash. Not drugs, but food.
"I cannot gossip without food," he mouthed, opening the pizza box and the beer cans.
"I don’t drink," I replied.
"It’s beer; everyone drinks beer," he insisted. "Co on, just one sip."
He insisted, and I grabbed the can, staring at it.
"Oh, don’t impregnate it," he joked, and I rolled my eyes before taking a sip.
"Ew!" My first reaction was, *what the heck did I put in my mouth?* But after a few sips, I felt much better.
"Now, do you know Jenny’s mate is here?" he asked, taking a big bite from the slice he had held in his hand.
With much fake confidence, I shook my head. "Really? He has already arrived?" I inquired.
"Yeah, he’s our senior. So Lucy saw them together, and it made her feel guilty about her own shattered relationship with her mate," he continued with his mouth full. "You know, I don’t really feel bad after sleeping with soone, but I do feel guilty for sleeping with Lucy. I think if I had not—" I shut him down because I realized he was wrong.
"Then she would have done it with soone who would have told the entire academy and made her look like a whore," I corrected him, and he smiled at .
"Helanie, whatever bothers you at weird tis. Because I do see a change in you every now and then. Whatever it is, I swear I will help you with it. I don’t care what it would do to , but I will protect you from these bullies like Salem and Sydney at all costs. Just please don’t run away from your problems," Since he didn’t know the exact reason why I was weird at tis, he connected it to Salem and Sydney.
But his words still ant a whole world to .
