CLARA'S POV"You know I thought you have fled school. Was patiently waiting for the morning so I raised the alarm. Where are you coming from, Clara?" Grace said to me the moment I entered the room.Well, what can I say? Sometimes, she acted like a mother and I actually enjoyed it back then. I smiled nervously at her as I noticed she was seated up on her bed. I had actually tiptoed inside the room in good faith that I would get there before she woke. The professor had assured me that we would certainly get the ingredients. We only needed to work together and do our parts."And here I thought you would be swimming in the Isle of wolves to barely notice I was gone." I said to her,"Yeah, right. Stop trying to switch the subject. Where are you coming from?" She asked me again."You know you would be a pretty annoying mother to your daughters if you're this way." I said to her as I pulled off my sneakers."Yeah, right. At least my daughters would know better than to sneak off in the middle
CLARA'S POVI stood there as the PE teacher explained what had happened to the head disciplinarian at the discipline office. More or less, it was like they had always been waiting for that moment in that office and of course, the bulky man tried to make me the villain here."Of course, she's a menace and a bully." The head disciplinarian said."I believe it was an accident of sorts." The PE teacher noted yet again."A clearly instigated accident." The man said."Huh?" The PE teacher muttered.She had clearly been remanded by her job to report such scenarios and I could understand that in a way, she did not like the fact he was the one doing this."What's to be expected of a rotten seed? You are ungrateful, just like your despicable father. How would you bully your own sister whose family was gracious enough to take you in?" The head disciplinarian asked me."Perhaps if you ask nicely, they would be gracious enough to take you in too." I said to him,"How dare you?!" The man demanded r
ALPHA DERRICK'S POVI had the intention of sending for her in the most discreet ways possible. Her reputation was equally as important to me as was anything. I was in my office, wondering how much longer it would take for those assistants to get me my items. I had given them randomly, lists of things to bring to me and with the promise of a positive evaluation.I sat back, trying to focus on the quiz that I had given the students previously. A couple of scripts went through and I realized that I was already getting bored of all of this. I went over and picked up a magazine on the other side of the shelf, just to kill time but it was not working.KNOCK.It was the first assistant and he had successfully acquired his own bits of the list of ingredients. I commended his efforts as I showed him where to drop off his own items. I was tempted then to have him send for Clara."You're missing her, aren't you?" My wolf suddenly asked me."Does it bother you that I do?" I asked him."Not really
CLARA'S POVI got into his office and heard him close the door behind me. His menial excuse as to the reason why he had called me sounds filial. I could only do little to keep from laughing out loud at it. The professor seemed pretty much a decent man and lying I would say is not one of his strengths.I was just carrying one box but he hurried over to assist me, leaving the assistant who had the piles."I got it." He said to me,"No need. Just tell me where to put it." I said to him, Not wanting to make it obvious, I looked at him weirdly.He raised a questioning eyebrow, as if he was asking me 'what?'Only now did I nudge my head towards the assistant who was struggling to put down his boxes. He followed my eyes and noticed immediately what I was trying to show him. Clearly, he had not actually thought about it as he rushed over to the assistant."Let me get that." He said to him,"I can handle it, Professor." The assistant said.Nevertheless, he did nothing to stop Professor Derrick
CLARA'S POV I had hardly been expecting that question and not to say the least, the closeness of his nearness was far too much for me to bear as I stood there watching him."Um, Clara. I might not be human but I understand that when asked questions, it is the human way to give answers." Clover said to me."And what do you want me to say?" I asked her."You speak as though my opinion counts. Either way, I would have been expecting something like a yes." She said suggestively to me."Yes? Clover, he's my professor." I said to him,"Didn't stop you from kissing him the other day." She said to me,"I'm just a lowly wolf. He's an Alpha." I said to him,"Even better and spicier. When you say yes, your romance will go down in history as the best one yet." She responded."You're not helping..." I said to her,"Clara, does my question frighten you?" Professor Derrick's voice cut into my thoughts."No. Not really." I said a little quickly."Easy, tiger. We do not want to scare him." Clover sai
CLARA'S POVI could not believe my eyes right now. They were gone? The very things the hands of fate gifted us and now we could not find them?"Are you certain you kept them on this particular stone? Maybe it is on another stone or something." I suggested it to her.Grace looked at me with bewilderment."Seriously, Clara? Am I that daft not to remember?" She asked me."Never said you were daft but we can both agree that you keep forgetting to wake up on time and remember we have classes though." I said to her,"That's different. So, what do we do right now?" She asked me."You mean aside from kidnapping Melissa from her sleep and beating more blood out of her?" I asked her."Be serious. You said this was important and I have taken it seriously." She responded."Grace, I am being serious right now. However, if we're not going to become fugitives from kidnapping the Beta's only child, there is something else we can do." I said."Well, what is it?" She demanded."Easy tiger. You make it
CHAPTER 27CLARA'S POVAlas! Old Maurice was not in sight when we got to the gardens and that gave us a frightful scare. "Do you think he's gone?" Grace asked me."I don't know. Maybe you see anyone here?" I asked her.At this point, I was barely keeping it together. My heart rate had gone so high that I felt I might actually faint at any point in time. Where was that old man when you needed him?I was growing worried and impatient. Barely hanging on a thin thread right now but I couldn't even get myself together. I would be damned if we do not find him."Patience, Clara." Clover suddenly said in my head."Clover, nice of you to join us. I thought you had finally exorcize yourself from within me." I said in a rush."With your rendezvous, that would not be so far from consideration." She responded obviously matching my fire."Yeah. Let me know when that happens. Perhaps, I would be sent to where the woofless beings stay." I teased her."Yes. And you remember, there is a reason why the
CLARA'S POVThe moment I saw them, my heart fluttered but Melissa had heard Grace and that was bad news at the time. She stopped in her tracks and when I looked up, she was already approaching my dear friend angrily."What was that again?" She asked, glaring at Grace.Her attention had momentarily been taken off me. However, there was no way in the world that I would stay back and have her bully Grace.At this point, Grace stood there helplessly and was visibly shaking. She looked so meek and then tried to look at me but Melissa was already glaring at her."Do not look at your wimpey friend. I am talking to you. What did you say earlier?" Melissa demanded again."I... I.... I was..." Grace stammered."Was what, Grace? I said that we found Melissa's trash. So why are you scared of admitting I said it?" I asked her with a loud voice."Um..." Grace was confused.However, even more confusing was the confusion on Melissa's voice as clearly she had reckoned who's voice she heard."I heard h
