Three.

"I don't know." Alexios shrugged. He didn't ask his father for a picture of her. As far as he knows, she should be the only new student joining them.

"Bye!" Ophelia waved at the boys as she hopped out of the car before running towards her friends.

"Coffee?" Alexios asked. They were not one to go to school early so they decided to spend some time at a coffee shop. The only reason why Alexios wakes up early is to bring Ophelia who cannot wait to be with her friends to school.

"We should get going." Wyatt told them looking at his wristwatch. They all nodded agreeing with him.

Exiting the coffee shop, they drove back to school, the closer they got to their class for the morning, the more agitated Alexios got. "Are you good man?" His friends surrounded him, their eyes scanning him with concern.

"Erskine is acting up." Alexios told them as he turned around and ran toward the back of the school. The friends were right behind him as they all shred their uniforms as soon as they were away from the town and in the woods. They all ran appreciating nature in their beast form. After what seemed like hours but only a few minutes, Alexios stopped and changed back to his human form.

Caius looked around the bush and found uniform spares, for situations where a wolf needed a quick run to ease their tension, the pack made provision of several uniforms and clothing in the forest.

The forest is a restricted area, this was made to keep the humans out of it. The pack had acquired this vast land just so it's members can have a place to go running whenever they needed to.

"Are you better now?" Wyatt asked concerned. They had all ran to their satisfaction yesterday and Erskine wasn't the type to act up without reason.

"I think she was close by." Alexios told his friends, his heart beating faster and he felt nervous.

"By she, you mean?" Owen asked his mouth opened and eyes budged.

Alexios nodded.

He had heard it clearly "Mate"

His wolf had called out to her.

"Then what are we doing here. Let's go meet her. I am curious about her." Owen was the most excited as his job as the next pack Gamma is to serve the Luna as her left-hand man. While she has her mate as her right-hand man, the Gamma is the one the Luna should be able to confide in the most. The one whose the Luna's safety comes top priority.

"I think she is the one he asked you to do your thing with." Wyatt told Owen.

"I wouldn't dare. If she is your mate, I wouldn't dare, I will do my duty and stay next to her but that will be all." Owen went on one knee as he made the promise.

"I know. Stand up and stop being dramatic." Alexios wasn't in the mood for his drama. He felt more conflicted, his mate is human. There have been many cases where werewolves get mated to humans, and some had ended tragically. What if she rejects me? What if she gets scared because of what I am? What if she also... She also kills herself to stop feeling what she feels?

Many what ifs files his head as he realized he was worrying over something and someone he hasn't even seen yet.

"We should go in." Wyatt told them again and this time, they ran back to the school compound in their human form without breaking a sweat.

"Good luck." They all wished him as they pushed the class door opened and walked in. Alexios couldn't see any other thing except for the lady whose head was lowered denying him the chance to see those lovely eyes of hers. Those eyes that had met with his for just a split second.

"Mate" His wolf had called out. Alexios gulped as Caius poked him from behind to walk forward. With heavy legs, he forced himself to not run over to her. His breathing which had turned uneven was noticed by all the werewolves in class.

The Geography teacher who had watched the young Alpha's reaction, looked towards the lady he had fun teasing earlier. Humans were fun to tease and he especially liked seeing the embarrassing look on them when he stares openly at them. So she is our Luna?!
