Orla's POVI thanked Moon Goddess hundreds of times when his car came to a halt at the school and started panting as if I have ran a marathon. It seems like not the car but I have run here. "Someone was saying that she is not scared of anything" he passed the comment and I stopped breathing. Ignoring him and I turned around to open the door but before I could step out he pressed the child lock. "What now?" I asked him, turning around, all irritated. Isn't he done with the childish behavior that he has put the child lock on? "Are you going to attend the class like this?" He inquired, lowering the mirror.When I looked in the mirror, my eyes widened. My cheeks were flushed, and my lipstick had smudged slightly. This is almost certainly due to my nervously chewing my lips all the way here. He handed me his handkerchief, which I accepted because I hadn't carried one with me and I can't surely attend a class like this. I rubbed the smudged lipstick with my first finger wrapped around
Orla's POVThe lunch break bell rang, and the students dashed towards the canteen. No matter how much food is prepared, everyone eats like an animal as they are, and the student who arrives last barely gets any.The first to leave the class was Lycan King. I am sure if he went to get the food, everyone would have to go hungry!Annie looked at his back from head to toe as he passed by. She just wanted his attention which he was not giving. Though I don't care what he does yet I was enjoying his cold behavior towards her and the other girls. "I pray he could be my mate," she said. "He can't be anyone's mate," her friend told her. "What? Why?" She asked. "Haven't you heard his story of Curse?" She shook her head. "He is cursed to never find his mate, and even if he does, she will be dead!"Oh! I died in my previous life!Was it due to his curse?NO!It was because of my faults! These girls are good at making stories. They must be seeing this so that I stay away from him. "He is ol
Orla's POVI stayed back after dinner to talk with my family so that my mother didn't come to my room to check on me later at night. I usually do this whenever I decide to meet Dante because it saves me from being checked at night."Lycan King, where are you going? Dessert has not yet been served" As Lycan King stood up, my father asked him. "I am tired; I am going to bed early," he said in a cold tone. "All right," my father said, nodding.He went directly to his room. My parents are treating him with special care. I am not sure if this is due to fear of him attacking our pack or something else.I took a deep breath and resumed my conversation with my mother. She kept asking me how my day had gone because it was the first day of Lycan King. I tried to change the subject, but she kept bringing it up, which irritated me.The dessert was quickly served, and I made my way back to my room after having it. I wasn't in a rush to meet Dante, but I don't want him to suspect me because I hav
Orla's POVWhen the bell rang, I exhaled a sigh of relief. I am finally free from this school for two days because it is the weekend!As we were all preparing to leave for home and pack our bags, the teacher said, "So class, as you know that finals are approaching, we are going to organize a sports week, in the next week.""Wow!" .... "yay" At the same time, students began shouting, cheering, and exclaiming. For us this is the best part of the year because we don't need to study during sports week, everyone enjoys participating in their own favorite sports. The yellow group and the red group will compete, as they do every year.Yes, there is competition between the rogues and the alpha, beta, and gamma children. This intensifies the fight between them even more. Before leaving the class for the discussion, she said, "You have two days to think and decide which game you are going to participate in. Those who don't want it can submit the assignment" "What sport are you planning to ch
Orla's POVI had no idea when these two days had passed and Monday had arrived. There is no doubt why most working people and students despise Mondays. You don't feel that motivation to work or study after a two-day break. I got ready with a heavy heart and made it to school on time. Today I remained silent and did not speak to the Lycan King the entire journey.I have yet to decide which sport I will participate in. As I approached the school assembly, I noticed many students gathered around the board. They were on the lookout for something, the thing of which I am unaware now. What exactly is going on here? As far as I recall, before the sports week starts there used to form that we had to fill out, stating our preferences for which sport we wanted to participate in. I have never seen anything like it before."Orla" Stenly dashed over to me as soon as she saw me. "Oh, Orla, I thought you wouldn't come today," she said, but I was more interested in what she had to say next. "You
Orla's POVWhat shall I do? "If you take your steps back without participating in sports, you will undoubtedly be labeled a loser. But, if you lose the game after participating in it, you will be referred to as a fighter. Losing and winning are both parts of the game, and it makes no difference. What matters is that you take part and do your best" Every word he said went directly into my head. I could now see my aim clearly. For the first time, he sounded reasonable to me."This is true in all aspects of life. You can't accept defeat without at least trying. And you will undoubtedly lose the game if you believe you are incapable of defeating your opponent," he explained. "I have never met Dante or seen him fight, so I am not sure what his true strength is. Based on how students regard him, I am confident that he is a person of great strength, but I cannot let what others say bring me down. I am confident in my ability and skill, and I am confident that I will defeat him because I do
Orla's POVNervous is an understatement to describe my current situation. I dislike being the center of attention, and I am currently the center of attention for a large crowd which is making me even more anxious. The students in the red group are encouraging me. I have heard that the candidate chosen to compete in the golf tournament against me is the champion of this sport. I am confident that I will not win the game because I have started playing it just a week before. As my gaze moved around the crowd, it came to rest on Lycan King, who was sitting in the back, appreciating me and giving me the thumbs up with a broad confident smile on his lips. He was just motivating me on the way to school. He knows the boy who will be playing against me is very good at this game, and I am terrified, but he encouraged me by saying I could beat him in four days of practice. I just sat there listening to him the entire trip because I was too nervous to say anything.I inhaled deeply and nodded.
Orla's POVI looked around when his car came to a stop and discovered that there was no cafe around. My forehead squinted in confusion "We are going to walk to the cafe, which is about 500 meters away from here so that we can at least burn some calories," he told me, clearing my confusion. "What?"Is there any sense in this?Before I could ask him anything, he exited the car, and I was forced to follow suit as I was not of legal age to drive it. "You can hold my hand" he proposed offering me his hand. My eyes moved between his palm and his face. Why does he want me to hold his hand? "Because you are afraid of humans. Are you not?" He inquired quietly so that nobody might hear us.I folded my arms to my chest and said, "No, I don't need your support because I am not afraid of anyone. I am enough for myself" He shook his head, chuckled lightly, and replied, "As you like."He turned around and began walking ahead, while I followed close behind. I have no idea how to get here becaus
