"Let's go? We have to go back downstairs. I'm starving too," said Jacob.

I nodded. I can still see his discomfort when he helped me stand up. My back really needs to get healed. I don't want Jacob to always take care of me like a child. And because of what happened earlier, I started to feel awkward whenever he's close.

I simply looked at him as I fastened my seat belt. He was very quiet but I noticed that his neck and ears were red. I just didn't pay attention to that and just kept quiet. I took his baseball cap again and put it back on even without his permission. The car started and we started and no one dared to speak for a long time. The tension between us grew and the air around us was suffocating.

I couldn't stop myself and let out a violent breath. I looked away when Jacob turned to me. I focused my eyes to the view on my side. I don't want to admit it but I feel annoyed with Jacob because of what happened earlier and it worsen even more when he apologized.

Why would he apo

    "Where is your house here?" "My house? We've already passed it," he answered simply."What?" I turned to him. "Then where are we going?" Jacob quickly glanced at me, his eyes looking hesitant. He was probably anticipating my reaction if he told us where we going. "In the pavilion. We will have lunch there." Pavilion... "Why there? Can't we just go to your house?" I said a little nervous. "They've prepared food there. And we often eat in the pavilion.""Are we going to eat with someone?" I added a question. Jacob sighed. "Yes, Lauren," he answered without looking at me. I shut my mouth and didn't say anything. I'm getting the same concern again. I don't want to speak anymore because Jacob will probably repeat his words again. I know that I'm like a broken plate with my repeated fears and maybe if I do it again, Jacob will be completely annoyed with me. I will not only face simple wolves but his family members, the highest clan here in Magnuth. What are they going to tell me? Th

    I adjusted my seat and looked at Sir Isac. His face is just normal as if his son's disrespectful response as if he is used to that kind of speech. The others were still eating just like nothing happened. They didn't even give him a single glance."Where are you going?" a woman asked Leon but he didn't answer. He walks with a chair in his hand. "What the heck Leon?!" Jacob exclaimed when Leon pushed the chair between us and sat there. Leon is facing the sharp edge of the long table. "Hand over the plate, Dad," he said. "What are you doing there?" Jacob asked again, frowning. "I'm going to sit and eat here. Is there a problem?" "Why there? There's so much space there!" Jacob said while pointing to George where he came from earlier."Hey, this is what I want. If you don't want to be next to me then leave there and go there yourself," he said to Jacob. I saw how Jacob's fists were clenched because of Leon's reply to him. "Dad where's my plate! I'm hungry!" "Go and get it yourself.

    "I'm sorry Jacob. It's just my adrenaline and my emotions that took over. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings," I apologize. "You hurt my feelings~.." the blonde sang while holding her own chest but I ignored him. "I'm fine Lauren. I understand how you feel," he said. "So what are we waiting for? Let's go Galha," said Leon. "You're not going with them Leon," said Sir Isac. "What?" he growled. "Do you agree, Uncle?" Jacob asked. "Do I have a choice? Lauren is too young to stay on a wheelchair. She still has a lot to do in this world, so go ahead, go to Galha." I couldn't resist. Because even though I know going to the Galha is dangerous, I have to gamble. I need to heal. I don't want my body to come home crippled and if my father sees me in that condition, he might get sick even more. "Are you sure Uncle?" Jacob assured again.Sir Isac nodded. "Leave the town on my hands. I'll take care of Magnuth while you're gone." "Thanks Uncle," Jacob said happily."You two are the only o

    "Those jerks," Jacob cursed under his breath. His face is grim while he grips the doorknob tightly. What happened? Did someone steal from his house? "I'm sorry that you have to see that," he apologized when he turned to me. "What happened?" "It's my cousins. They used to do this to pester me, rummaging through my things and when they like something, they take it. What's even worse is that they deliberately mess around." Seriously?"Stay there first, okay? I'll just clean it. It'll be fast," I just nodded. He closed the door when he got in. Just a few moments later, I heard quick movements inside and the clatter of things. I laughed softly. The door opened again and his sweaty face and neck revealed to me. "Let's get inside." When we entered, his whole house was already clean. Very clean and without a trace of clutter. I looked at a wheelchair. When jacob saw where i was looking I spoke. "Is that.." "Yeah. That's for you. So even if I can't support you, you can still go to an

    I watched Jacob arranging his purchases. If only I could stand, I would help him fix it. I stared at his back, wondering while he was left behind. He is a responsible person, caring and perfect. if he just goes to our place, the girls will definitely fall to their knees to chase him. "Aren't you going to rest?" he turned holding a bottle of wine. "I was going to rest but I want to take a shower first."He stopped and rubbed his forehead. "I'm sorry. I didn't think of that," he apologized then scratched his head and thought. "Who should I call?" he talked to himself. "Right!" he exclaimed then flicked his fingers in the air. "Remember Kristine?" "Kristine. The little girl?" I asked with a frown. "Why her?" "Eeryone is busy and they have their own work. Don't underestimate Kristine. Even though she's young, she's strong."Jacob did call Kristine. After awhile someone knocked on the door. "See? She's even fast," he laughed then went to the living room and opened the door.

    I checked the time upon waking up. It's almost 6 in the evening. I seem to slept too much. I feel strange though because I didn't feel any discomfort and I was even comfortable while sleeping. I grabbed the wheelchair and it took me a lot of effort to transfer myself and sit there. I should be doing it by myself. I can't just rely on others and I'm not sure if Kristine is still in the house.I left the room and was greeted by deafening silence. I think I'm all alone in the house. I went straight to the living room and was surprised when I found Kristine on the long sofa sleeping. Next to her is the empty plate and milk that has not been consumed.I approached him and reached for Jacob's big shirt that was hanging on the back of the sofa and used it as a blanket. After that, I went out of the balcony. I hesitated to go out at first because there were a few people passing by outside but I still decided to go out. The longer I stay here the more I get used to it and feel comfortable. I

    I'm not dumb to not feel that Leon is interested in me. I thought he invited me out to be alone but he really invited Kristine to join us. I think i'm being too assuming. Leon raised an eyebrow at me then grinned. "Why? you want just the two of us?" I rolled my eyes. Leon just laughed as he brushed his hair back. I can't help but to study his features. Given the height and beautiful body, Leon's face is kinda exotic with high cheek bones and very long and thick eyelashes. He has a rugged and playboy look and that's what highlights him the most."What now Tintin?""Where are you going?" "In the lake," answered Leon. Kristine was stunned for a moment and I almost jumped when she squealed one after the other. Leon winced and covered his ears. "Damn. That's painful to eardrums," he said with one eye still closed. Kristine jumps in joy and even hugs Leon. "You're not kidding right? right? You're going to take me with you right?" she said excitedly. Leon rolled his eyes then squeezed

    We found a good place to sit. Many benched scattered along the entire length of the lake. It's like a park in the middle of the forest. On the branches the trees are hanging yellow lights to give good light to the whole area. "It's beautiful!" exclaimed Kristine who was next to me. She was looking at the water in front of us. I laughed and also looked at the lake. It's wide and there's a big bridge connecting both parts of it. It's crowded on the bridge because almost all the people are there. "Look! It's Nemo!" Kristine exclaimed while pointing to the fish that jumped into the air. Leon was by my side and just quiet. I've noticed that his aura is different since we arrived here. I thought that we came here to enjoy, but what I see in him now is the opposite of what I expected. He was queite and motionless as he stared blankly at the flashing water. His two companions also had sad faces looking at him as if they knew what was on Leon's mind. I gasped for air. What's wrong with the

    Right after I left the clinic, the soldiers arrived at the palace to pick me up. There were students walking with me. They are looking at me and the others are still whispering to each other. But even so, no one even dared to talk to me. That's not a case for me. I know that they are more than me because I am different from them. I felt the same as they did when I first set foot in their place. I was full of doubts but when I spent some time here and got to know them well, I felt reassured. I hope that as the days go by that I am here at their school, I will be able to put them at ease. After I got my horse, I started to run it back to the palace. The two soldiers were on both sides of me and as before they were still speechless. Maybe I'll just ask Dean later if possible not to let them accompany me tomorrow. I have almost memorized the way. I turned to both sides of me as the swift figures of students who were on their way home began to pass. I was really beyond amazed. They are

    Brandon cursed loudly when I bumped my head against him. He smacked his forehead as he retreated. I think he is dizzy because of his tight closing eyes and his staggered retreat. I also rubbed my forehead because I felt dizzy. Heck. Where did I get that move?My eyes are shaking and I think my brain too. With my blurry eyes, I caught a glimpse of Brandon approaching me again. He's still dizzy but I know he still has a lot of energy stored up to punch me again. Damn. How am I supposed to get out of this fight? I'm at my limit here. So far, this is the longest physical combat I've experienced because I finally found someone who is equal to me and surpasses my abilities. I can see that person here in magnuth. I really want to run away from Brandon but that's not in my vocabulary. I would rather fall to the ground defeated than run away from my opponent. Even though I was already weak, I still forced myself to stand up straight and prepare myself.I clenched my fist. But brandon hadn't e

    The attacks that brandon unleashed one after another. His every move is very fast and polished. I finally understand what Amanda said about Brandon. He is a big man and his fists are so big that the force he releases is almost double. I hear screams and shouts as brandon attacks me non-stop. And since I haven't formed yet, all I do is dodge and parry every attack he unleashes. Even when he is attacking, I see that he is always on the defensive so I find it difficult to see an opportunity to attack him."What's wrong little kitten? Are you just going to avoid and block all my attacks? Come on, show me something interesting," he teased. I didn't pay attention to what he said to me. He can blab all the way he wants but I won't give him the satisfaction that he wants. Our fight continued like that until I gradually noticed the weakening of his defense. I secretly grinned. And when I saw a big and wide opening, I clenched my fist hard and gave him a hard punch right on his jaw. Brandon

    Amanda showed me many student training classes. We are now going to the close combat group.My mind was wandering about what amanda and I talked about earlier about having strength like them. It's true that I really envy their strength and abilities but that's all. It's just a kind of envy that doesn't hurt anything, envy and admiration. I won't stoop so low just to get marked by a wolf that isn't my mate. And maybe I'm not one of those lucky human girls to get a wolf mate. I'm envious but I'm not delusional to the point of doing things that are against nature. Whatever I have now I am contented. I will not kneel down just to have the same strength as them. I woke up from my deep thoughts when I heard screams. "That's damn wrong! What kind of posture is that?! You'll get beat in an instant if you keep on doing that! Always stay alert and focus damnit!" "Seriously Jill?? How many times did I tell you to punch harder? Your attacks are too weak! Are you really a wolf? If am your enemy

    The woman was all smiles as she approached me. I just saw him here. She doesn't look like a teacher though. "Hi there! Lauren right?" she said when she finally got close to me. I nodded."Yeah." I immediately heard the accent of her voice. It looks like she didn't grow up here in Magnuth's town, or if she did grow up here, she must have spent a long time in another country. I know that it's rude to talk to her while I'm riding on the back of my horse so I decided to get off.She extended her hand and introduced herself. "My name is Amanda. I am the school's principal."Oh principal huh? That's why she's wearing that. I reached for her hand. "Lauren. It's nice to meet you," I introduced myself even though she already knew me. Maybe Dean already told her that I'm coming here. And it's an honor that she came and welcomed me by herself."The pleasure is mine!" she chirped and laughed a little bit. She's hype okay. Although she looks serious, I feel that she is a kind person and I can g

    I simply looked around here in his office. My eyes were stuck on a plant next to me. I grinned when I guessed what kind of plant it was. A kalachuchi.. I want to laugh because of the many plants that Dean can put in his office, he chooses a kalachuchi. Now, he can taste what his plant tastes like. My movement was quick and agile in picking its leaves. I put the obtained leaves on the table and counted them. I'm secretly laughing. I ground it well to extract all its juice to make it more bitter. When it was over, I put the kalachuchi juice in the coffee I brewed. I also included the crushed leaves for more fun. Luckily it sank and didn't float. I took the spoon and mixed it. I was so excited that my mixing hand was shaking a little. Others are even scattered around the table. Lol. I can't wait to see Dean's reaction and look when he tastes the coffee he made me. "Aren't you done yet?" Dean asked again while teasing me and smirking. Go for it. Make the most of your laughter now bec

    I've only been sitting and reading for a few hours and I'm already feeling bored. I put down my papers I was reading then let out a breath and leaned back in my chair. I really can't stand this kind of job especially since it's different from the jobs Koko taught at the capitol. I learned something but it was really different, more difficult and more complicated. I wasn't surprised anymore because I was in a different world, a world I wasn't used to. Besides that, my body is not used to just lying around and doing nothing. I will definitely get sick if I do this all the time. I prefer to move and is always in action, not someone like this who sits and reads like a politician or businessman. Dean turned to me when he saw me stop what I was doing. "What's wrong?" he asked. "Isn't there anything else to do here besides these?" I asked while still pointing to the piles of papers in front of us. I don't know Dean why he perseveres with this daily work. Probably got used to it. He is de

    I woke up early to prepare our breakfast. As soon as I came out, my nose was immediately attacked by the smell of garlic being roasted. I shakes my head. No matter how early I wake up, they still wake up earlier. They are wolves after all. Maybe it's in their race. I passed Sebastian's room with the door slightly open. I just passed it by and didn't bother to peek. I almost fell when I didn't immediately notice the stairs in front of me. I'm still getting used to this newly renovated house. I went straight to the kitchen. I first saw Sebastian with his back turned and cooking while Jacob was preparing the table. Both of them were shirtless. It's still early but they are showing off their beautiful bodies right away. I think I have to get used on how they dress.Women in our town will definitely lose their minds when they come here and see handsome men without clothes. I grinned."Good morning," Jacob greeted. Sebastian quickly turned to me and greeted me as well. "Good morning Lau

    When we arrived at Jacob's house, all the lights were on and there are huge luggages there. Is there a guest? I was about to ask him when the door suddenly opened and Sebastian spat out with a grin. "Hey Lauren. Good evening!" he greeted and waved slightly."Are those yours?" I asked then pointed to the luggages. "Yep. Flash news Lauren, I'm going to live here!" he said happily. My jaw dropped. What? Did I hear it right? Sebastian pouted because of my reaction. "Why? You don't want me here?" he said like a sulking child. "So Dramatic," I heard Jacob whisper. "It's not like that. I was just really shocked that's why I reacted like that," I answered honestly. "Are you sure?" he assured. I just nodded. "Then come here quick. I'll show you my room." He came to me and slightly pulled my hand. "Alright. Go with Seb. I will take care of the horse." he said in a soft voice. "Thank you Jacob."The arrangement of the living room now is different. The two bedrooms here have now become
