It was 5:00 a.m. when the drilling with the strict teacher, Asher, ended. I trudged to the hostel alone, sweat dripping down my skin, my hair sticking to my face, and my shirt extremely messy. "Good morning, Maia." A sleepy Arya greeted me as soon as I stepped into the room. A towel was wrapped around her thin body as she sleepily made her way toward the skincare section in the room."Good morning, Arya," I replied with a yawn. I plopped on the couch tiredly and began to take off my shoes. When we arrived at the gym, Asher made me do all types of stretching, and because I'm a beginner, it hurts since I've never done such intense exercise before.Furthermore, he instructed me to soak in warm water once I arrived at the dormitory in order to soothe my muscles. Since I'm a beginner, I might experience pain in the first few days. "Where have you been?" Arya asked me as soon as she sat down on the couch in front of the skincare section. Her small lips puckered in curiosity."At the gym.
I stared at my hand shakily while staring at Arya, who whimpered in pain as she tried to stand up.I couldn't believe I just did this. Where did this strange power come from? How was I capable of pushing Arya away from me at such a distance? Didn't I make such a casual push? How? My body trembled as I watched blood drip from Arya.However, before I could decipher it, a fierce clash between the two energies made pain rock through my whole system and made me fall to the floor, down on my knees."Ahhh!" I grabbed my head in pain, whimpering sadly.What was used to attack me was different from poison; it was just like a strange incident in the dressing room, so who owns this energy?What is the person's mission? Why is this person attacking me? Aside from all the childish bickering with the ladies, I was sure that I did nothing to anyone here, so who's out to get my life?In just a few days, I've become a regular attendant of pain. What's happening to me?"Ah." I cried out as the temperat
"Oswald, do you think the boarding decision is right for Maia?" Asher's accusing voice drifted into my ear, jolting me up from my sleep. He was talking in a whisper as if he didn't want to wake me up.I tried to feel my surroundings, and due to the smell that drifted into my nose and the soft bed, I only had one thought: Wyatt's Mansion. They brought me back.But upon recalling the question Asher had just posed, I tried to stay quiet. So the rules were really made up because of me, and I wasn't being paranoid?Great, he wanted to separate Wyatt and my closeness."Strange things kept piling up about my mate," he muttered possessively, and that left me amazed for a few minutes. So he's still ascertaining dominance right now? I had the idea that he must be directing it to Wyatt."I don't know what to make of this. Different rumors are flying; it's too late to change things." Oswald explained, but in simpler words, he seemed to regret his decision.The room fell quiet immediately, and usi
“What's it, Filippa?” Wyatt's hand fell on my hand with worry as he inquired.I snapped out of my reverie and shook my head. These are things I need to solve myself; I don't need to tell anyone for now. “It's nothing. Can I go to class now?” I asked them since I was healthy and felt no pain.“Not yet; I need to find out how to cleanse the suppressing poisons from your system.” Asher conveyed, which made my eyes light up.If Asher can cleanse the poisons from my system, that means I can become powerful.As long as I become powerful, I can get out of any dangers in the future and know more about myself.Not only that, I can leave the power axis pack to take over the red flame pack and lead it to the top. A sense of happiness ran through my whole system, and I happily bowed to them.“Thank you.” I sincerely appreciate them. My voice is vividly filled with joy.“It's fine.” Asher nodded nonchalantly and took out a syringe from his medical box before saying, “Stay still; I'll be drawing ou
I huffed and ruffled my hair before lying on my back in anger. “How dare he accuse me of throwing tantrums? Can't he be considerate of me? What if I died? Well, it won't faze him since he has a perfect mate next to his side. I hate him.” I bemoaned.Until the next day, I didn't catch a trace of anyone. Great, I've healed already, and the most important thing is not to get stifled to death due to annoyance by just seeing their face. That Oswald jerk!As soon as it's dawn, I take my bath, apply my skincare, and do all the necessary things I need to do before picking up my things.I left for school without catching a trace of Wyatt. Perhaps he's out to train, or he didn't come home last night. Since I hadn't left the room since I woke up, I didn't know.Still, the thought of being called selfish is a stab to my heart. I really want to rip him apart. Will he really lock me down and prevent me
2nd trial: Fighting with a set of 30 medium-ranked roguesI couldn't believe this. Is this a joke? How can Oswald give me such a mission? Is it because Oswald was annoyed with me? Is that why he decided to assign such a dangerous quest as my second trial? We all know that I'm a beginner at fighting.Gosh. It wasn't even low-ranked; it was a group of medium-ranked rogues. In actuality, my fighting skill isn't even up to the werewolf's low-ranked level.How can he give me such a quest: a week from now, you'll be fighting 30 medium-ranked rogues?An amusing laugh spilled past my lips, even though I tried hard to stop it.Did Oswald want me to fail or not? Looking past his possessive words yesterday, I think he wanted me to. Perhaps he's now tired of me, and since I'm too unconquerable for him, he can't wait to kick me out of his pack.I mean, once I lose this trial, there's nothing left. Since I've failed the first trial, I'll be kicked out as soon as I lose the second one.But if it's l
Arya shook her head seriously. "If Big Brother Wyatt didn't give you an explanation, then I'm the last person who can." She explained, looking sincere.Of course, what was I thinking? Perhaps, since Arya was sent to watch over me, why would she snitch on the Alpha? Of course, there'll be a limit to what she can tell me.I plopped on the table and tousled my hair angrily, not quite understanding why they were still hiding things from me. Don't I need to become stronger if I'm to be used as a 'weapon'? Is it because I'm yet to become one of them? "Ugh. I don't like you anymore."Before I could complete my words, Arya grabbed my hand tightly in flusters and stared at me with panic on her face. "You can't." Arya cried out and tightened her hold, which almost made me wince. I was slightly shocked by her actions.My comment was casually made; I didn't expect Arya to react this strongly. Perhaps my shock was vivid because Arya suddenly smiled—a comforting one.Suddenly, Arya placed her head
I fell onto my bed after taking my bath and applying my skincare routine. I picked up my phone and heaved a sigh of distress.Despite all that happened in the afternoon, I didn't bother chatting up Oswald to ask him what was up.I knew Oswald must want to see me frustrated, but I had to make sure that what he'd be getting from me was nothing but confidence and calmness.I unlocked my phone and tapped on the search engine. If the library doesn't work, the search engine must.'Pureblood.' I input the search according to Arya's explanations of how to operate the search engine. Error! The search didn't match any information.I gritted my teeth upon seeing the answer. I knew that Oswald must be the one behind this. He messed up with it again. He's really doing everything to get me blocked. Should I be grateful that he's paying so much attention to me now?'Maia, your mate is an asshole.' I angrily commented.Maia stayed silent and didn't reply to me, but I knew it was a silent agreement.
