No one knew how my heat was induced or what caused it. The other Alpha Ray went to beat and was found unconscious in the forest. He had wounds on him, which he obviously got from soone. However, when he regained consciousness, he refused to tell the teachers who hit him.
Neither of the teachers knew how I was brought back nor how I got three of the treasures. So, it's part of the mystery of the school. I managed to knock myself unconscious, get three of the artefacts, induced my heat and brought myself to the infirmary.
Well, that's that. We got our prizes. Aside from Storm, who got seven of the artefacts, and Sky who got three, no other werewolf got more than one. The Alpha I fought, who was beaten in the forest, got none.
"Thank you for making this school proud." Our physical education teacher grinned at us. Today, he's putting on the signature black shirt and black slacks the teachers wear every third day of the week. His hair is tied back in a man bun, giving him more of a professional look.
His lips, which were always upturned in a frown weren't frowning at all. He looked happy, and I can tell our achievents made it so.
All the teachers in the school were smiling like they won the lottery or sothing like that.
"Smile a little, you look like soone going on a battle," Storm whispered into my right ear — did I fail to ntion that I stood next to him to receive our awards?
I froze.
Ever since we returned from the forest, I've not seen the insufferable Alpha. I only got to hear about his achievents from Ray. Today is the first ti, since we entered the forest, that I've seen him.
Truthfully, I sense that he has changed. His face looked more handso, and the faint scent of his orange pheromones made feel... Giddy?
I narrow my eyes at him. What's wrong? Did soone hit my head on the wall? I bet that's the reason his scent seems inviting.
"Smile. You look cute when you do that." He whispered once more. There was no animosity in his stare. He doesn't seem like he's trying to tease . His blue eyes twinkled, but that was all.
I turned my face towards the teachers, and a small smile graced my face. Mind you, I wasn't smiling because he asked to, I smiled because I'm happy. I never believed I will get any of the artefacts. But here I am with not one, but three. And they are the most important ones.

Sky and Ray went with the others, to send the students from Howl Academy to their destination, while I took an excuse from the teacher. I claid to be tired, but that's because I didn't wish to go with them. A look is all it will take for to hit that stupid Alpha.
I trudged down the hall, with my prize weighing down on . I got the award for the best Oga in our set. It ans I'm now the number one Oga of the school until the next contest, which is coming up two years from now.
By then, I won't be here. I will be back on Earth, with my friends, who won't believe a word from when I tell them of how I transmigrated into a comic.
"Strawberry!" The familiar voice caused to stop. I had half the mind to ignore him, but I knew that won't help my case. The Alpha is like a buzzing fly. He won't let rest until I pay attention to him.
I stopped and slowly turned to face him. "What do you want?" I folded my arms as my eyes racked through his body. He has changed out of the clothes he was putting on before, now he's wearing the sa sportswear I'm putting on.
"Why do you always sound defensive whenever I'm with you?" He closed the distance between us but made certain, not to co close to . I expected him to release his pheromones like he loves doing, but he surprised by folding his arms and doing nothing.
"Why won't I do that when you are always bullying ?" I tried not to sound as defensive as he accused of. This way, he won't get to have sothing against .
He shrugged. "Bullying you is fun. It doesn't hurt to have fun once in a while, don't you think?"
"What do you want?" I inhaled sharply. I need to return to our dorm, to rest, before Ray shows up to talk my ears off about what he intends to do to anyone who attempts to bully .
Storm's eyes racked through my body. He started from the crown of my head and stopped at my feet before glancing up. He bit his bottom lips and winked. "Where are you going? I will escort you there." He smiled, and for a mont, I forgot who he was. His smiles made want to smile, but I bit down hard on my bottom lip, to keep my lips from smiling.
"Why? So, you will bully more?" I folded my arms, and narrowed a glare at him, ready for the onslaught of his pheromones.
"What do I need to do to make you know that I don't intend to bully you?" He sighed.
"Get lost. Don't follow any more, and I will call it quits."
If I don't get to see him any more, then I won't be worried about dying before graduation. I will make sure Brys graduates before I leave. And when he does? I will return to Earth, and continue my studies. Sure, I will miss my friends here. But that doesn't an I'm ready to stay.
"I'm afraid I can't do that." He bead, "I will always be here for you, Strawberry." He closed the distance between us and raised his right hand.
I instinctively closed my eyes, afraid he might hit or sothing like that. But he didn't hit . He gently placed his palm on my hair and ruffled it. "I have always wanted to do this." He ran a hand through my hair, "It's as delicate as your scent, Strawberry." He whispered so low as if shouting might break the spell on .
The way he pronounced 'Strawberry' made it sound endearing. It seed like sothing said out of affection. And for the first ti, since he gave that na, I had the wish to hear him whisper the na — once, even.
