**Alana's POV***I don't know what's happening to me, all I know is that I could feel my whole body going up in flames. I could feel a strange power within me, and I can't even control my wolf or tell it to stop.Amara was in great pain and trying to control the powers she wields, but that was rather making us go ballistic.“Argh!!” I screamed as I felt too hot within me. Not only that, I noticed my wolf was glowing like the moon. What's going on? Was this because of the marking? But no one told me it'll be this severe. If I had known, I never would have let them mark me.I saw my mates moving towards my direction.“Alana, wake up! You can't get any angrier than this, else you'll cause a disaster!” Aiden said, getting towards me. I know I didn't mean it, but just as he came closer, I attacked him and dug his shoulders badly.“Argh!” Aiden screamed out and, his brothers approached me, but my wolf had lost it at this point. I don't have powers over Amara, and so she clawed Caden on the
**Alana's POV***I arrived at the magic academy which looked ancient with mud bricks and ancient roof tiles.“WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF SUPERNATURALS” was written boldly on the marquee board in front of the school's entrance. I didn't have the opportunity to pack anything, and I spent a week searching for the location of the academy. Finally I was here with the token my mom gave me.With my mother's token in hand, I headed to a building which I noticed was an office where I can make inquiries. Not only that, I saw rare creatures and species of people who, I believed, were all students at the academy. I was amazed, seeing diverse people in different forms and sizes.As soon as I got into the building, I noticed an elderly-looking man with short gray hair at the corners of his head and he was putting on transparent glasses, staring at his computer screen.He must have noticed me, seeing how he slowly raised his head up to look at me.“Hi,” I muttered as I walked briskly towards his desk.
**Alana's POV***“What? Hell no, there's no way I'm staying with a strange guy in one room. Please do me a favor and change my dorm or at least give me a female roommate,” I demanded.“Honey, I swear that would have been easy, but I need you to understand that there are no empty dorms or roommates of your species that are without a partner. Unless you're willing to stay with an entirely different species."The thought of staying with a species I don't know made me shiver. Does this mean I have no alternative but to return to the dorm which he had picked for me?“Urgh!” I grumbled at this thought. Since I had no choice, I lazily strode back to the dormitory where the guy was. I can't even explain just how embarrassed I felt presently, owing to how I stormed out of the room with the intention of finding a dorm I can stay in.“So, you're back,” he muttered over his shoulders, even though he had his back against me. He seemed to work on his shoes.“Well, the teacher wanted to change my ro
**Alana's POV**“What are you doing here?” I asked in a whisper, but enough to pass my message to him.He didn't reply to me, which made me look in his direction. He was smiling and staring at me.What the hell is wrong with him?While I was struggling with his unannounced presence, I saw two girls suddenly leave their seats and strolled towards ours.“James, I'm glad you came to class today. You see, I have difficulty with one of my subjects and I hope you can help me with it.”Was this just a scope to get his attention or does he help students?“Well, you know I'm also struggling with my grades here.”“That's not true. You're the best student in the whole academy, scoring the highest in class and in combat as well. I'm sure you can help me."My jaw dropped, and my eyes flew wide when I heard this. No wonder the girls are ogling over him.So, he's not just popular but intelligent as well?This is spectacular I must confess.“Alana, do you have time this evening?”I went wide and slow
**Alana's POV**As soon as I arrived at the passage leading to my dormitory, I was shocked to see a girl standing outside the entrance.This can't be my eyes deceiving me. I'm sure that girl was standing outside my dorm. And the funny part of everything is the fact that I don't even know her.I had thought she must be from my class, but that's not the case when I looked closely. So who was that girl, and why was she standing outside the door to my dorm room?I walked over to the door and noticed it was locked. I wonder if that was why she could not go in.“If you came to see him, then you should go now,” the girl who had her back against the wall said to me in a haughty tone.“Excuse me?”She looked at me with a raised brow.“I know you're here for James, but like I said, you should leave now while I'm still being nice. He's a no-go area!”She lashed out at me.Woah! Wait, it can't be that she thinks I'm one of those girls who are head over heels in love with James.Just as I was abou
***Alana's POV***“Why are you being slow? Attack me, for goddess’ sake!” I said in frustration to James, who had only been avoiding my attacks and not fighting me as his opponent.“I'm sorry, but I'm not used to fighting with a lady. Someone like you at that.”“Someone like me? What about me?”He didn't reply and rather kept dodging my attacks without attacking me.Well, since he defended and not strike, then I guess I'll have to show the skills I've learned.With that in mind, I surprised James by striking him when he least expected it and tackled him to the ground.I did not know I was being watched until I heard loud gasps around me.I raised my head up only to see that everyone's training had stopped and was rather looking in my direction.James bounced back up with a look of surprise in his eyes.Well, it's not my fault that he refused to listen to me.“Again!” I said, preparing to attack him again. I had expected him to attack this time as well, but he didn't, and so I took adv
**James POV***Ever since Alana came to the magic academy, I had been wondering what might have actually been the reason for her to be here. Her father is the rogue Alpha who was defeated by the Alpha of the Blood Rose Pack. How come she told me she's from the Blood Rose Pack?Didn't she realize the Alpha was her mortal enemy? How come she stays in his pack?I've been asking myself these questions for the past week ever since her arrival, but I couldn't come to any conclusion.It's not like I could actually ask her the question directly, else I would have done so. She didn't even recognize me, so how do I go about explaining to her who I am?I learned the student body had invited her for our monthly social gathering. It seems everyone is curious to see the girl who had defeated me.I chuckled lightly as I headed to the social party as well.As soon as I arrived there, I heard screams and shouts.“Didn't you hear me? Maybe you're deaf, but if you want me to repeat myself, I'll gladly d
***Alana's POV**Hold on a minute, this doesn't seem to be a joke coming from him. And I could swear that I've not seen him before.“And again, I'm asking if I'm supposed to know who you are?”He said nothing but stared at me.This was confusing. When he asked me about this the first time, he had quickly said it was a joke, but seeing the serious looks in his eyes, I realized that there's no way in hell this was a joke.Where exactly had I met him? Hold on, could it be from my real pack? But I don't recognize him to be any member of my pack or even my father's subordinate.“Are you saying you can't recognize me? Why don't you think harder? I'm sure you'll finally realize that you actually know me.”“That's not true at all. I can't remember seeing your face anywhere, no matter how hard I try.”He heaved a long deep sigh, seemingly disappointed at the fact that I don't recognize him.“James, why don't you save us both the trouble by telling me straight on what I need to know. You can ta
