Zora

When I came around, I was in a well lit room but a peek through the blinds revealed darkness.

Looking around, I realized that I was in the infirmary and right beside my bed was Evelyn. She was sitting on a stool and her head was nested on the edge of my bed.

I couldn't tell how long, but I knew that I must have been out for a long time.

I sat up slowly, trying to ensure that I didn't disrupt Evelyn's sleep but I failed. She grunted as I watched her rare up her head. She yawned and stretched out lazily.

Slowly her eyes lit up and her gaze fell on me.

"Zora!" She yelled and hugged me before pulling away to look at my face again. She did this repeatedly and I chuckled.

What?" I asked sweetly

"Doc! Zora is back! She has come around!" She yelled all at once.

Doctor Jacobs made it to my bed in no time.

"Thank goodness, here you are. We were damn scared. You were out for three days," Jacobs said and began to check my vitals.

"Three days!?" I yelled in astonishment.

"Yes, without any

    PearlFor the first time in four days, Mrs Hopkins attended the students' assemblage. She addressed us, emphasizing on the school rules and regulations.I chuckled after listening to her. All I have experienced in my few days in the school were the complete opposite of the proclaimed rules.Walking into the classroom, I took my seat eagerly. Our first subject for the day was mathematics. It was my best subject and the mathematics teacher seemed to be good at it.I had just settled in my seat when a student walked past, dropping a notebook on the floor. I wanted to pick it up but I decided against it. When I resumed the regular class on Monday, I had thought things would be different. I told myself that I was cast away by the members of the big cats because I wasn't really one of them and that things would be different in a general class.It turned out that I was a big fool. Not only the big cats, I did belong anywhere in this goddamn hellhole.I was given cold shoulders and everyone

    HardinIt was lunch break and I had just finished my brunch. I cleaned up my plates as usual and made my way out of the dining hall. l was on my way down to Panda dining hall to peek at Pearl as usual. Having known that Evelyn was the reason why she had been avoiding me, my heart yearned more for her. I was almost approaching the hall when I bumped into Jayden."Come see this. Jose is at it again," Jayden yelled."That asshole! Where is he?" I asked."In Panda hall," Jayden responded and I followed him.Jose is a notorious bully. He and the gang leader; Charlie, are well known throughout the school. Both are siblings and the children of one of the Citadel's benefactors. They are therefore above the law and Mrs Hopkins could not get rid of them.My eyes spat fire as I rounded the last corner that led to the dining hall. I beheld Jose's arm wound around Pearl's waist, he was kissing her like a ravenous beast and the other students were cheering.At first, I cooled down my nerves, I ha

    Pearl At exactly 5pm, I marched down to the Administrative block and made my way to Mrs Hopkins office. "Pearl Shelby…" Mrs Hopkins called my name richly whilst one of the men who worked with her directed me to a seat. I waited impatiently while she attended to a few students who had come before me. When it was my turn I jumped from my seat and walked to her desk. "Ma'am… I'm leaving! I am leaving this citadel! I don't belong here, and you know it!" I gritted. Mrs Hopkins relaxed in her chair and swiveled from side to side as she stared at me in wonderment. "Mrs Hopkins, not ma'am!" she finally said and I scoffed. "Not like it makes any difference… all I…" "Insubordination! Correct yourself or get out of here!" A voice yelled behind me, it was one of Mrs Hopkins' men. Immediately, I was grabbed from behind and lifted off my feet. "Let me go!" I yelled and tried to struggle free. Mrs Hopkins smirked. She raised a finger to stop the man and he put me down. "I don't fit in her

    PearlMy body became weightless and I shot through the air. I yelled and struggled to regain my balance but it was all useless."Hardin!" I shrieked but no one responded. My body continued to dive through the air. I lost sense of time and I couldn't tell how long I spent in the air, but when my feet landed back on the ground, I was in the woods.I fidgeted and looked around. At first, I thought it was the woods where I had found myself when I had tried to escape, but at a closer look, I realized that it wasn't.Unlike the dark woods, tiny bulbs illuminated the area. There were potted plants and flowers growing at strategic positions. The whole set up looked like a greenhouse within the woods."Is this possibly another side of the dark woods?" I muttered as I hauled myself to a corner. Identifying my location isn't the issue here, the big deal is, what the heck happened to me? I was at the football court, how did I get here?"Do not worry, this isn't the illusionary woods that you fo

    HardinIt was lunch break. I finished up my lunch and took a stroll before the break elapsed.My mind was still preoccupied. I was embittered and angry, I couldn't believe Pearl harbored such thoughts against me. I felt used and stupid for sticking to her and helping her.I haven't seen her today and I don't bloody care."Did you hear the news?" Jayden's voice sounded from a distance. I turned around and saw him running towards me. He tried to catch his breath and spoke incoherently."What news is so urgent?" I asked."It's Pearl…""Stop! Shit! I don't want to hear anything about her! Fuck!""Common! Common! Hardin! This is serious! She…""I said stop it! I yelled and gripped his neck tightly.He struggled free from my hold and yelled into my face, "I don't seem to understand you!" Holding my hand firmly in his, he dragged me towards the tarred road that led down to the infirmary.A shuttle was approaching from another end. It stopped in front of the infirmary where a stretcher was a

    HardinI didn't visit the infirmary throughout the day and now it was my loss as I couldn't fall asleep. I tossed from one side of the bed to the other thinking about Pearl. I still haven't forgiven her but I feel worse knowing that her life was endangered.Jayden, whom I had sent to get the latest news hasn't returned. Although, I did not know the full gist, I couldn't help but think that Evelyn was behind it all.I got out of the bed and made my way out of the dorm. It was full moon and Stan wagged his tail at the sight. I knew he wanted to come out. I scrowled and instantly, he knew it was a no. He whimpered and lay low.Just as I stepped out, I met Jayden who was just returning. He looked disturb and I wondered what the news was all about.He shook his head as he approached me. "I couldn't see her. No one is allowed in and there is no information about her," Jayden said."Evelyn!" I gritted and Jayden flinched."Evelyn? What about her? Where the hell are you going?" He asked as I

    Hardin Hopinks Citadel is largely dominated by large empty spaces and woods. This is as a result of the events, and supernatural activities that take place in the school. One of such woods is Denim woods where Pearl was found unconscious. It is the major greenhouse in the school. According to the school rules, werewolves can shift into their wolves at any given time, but not indiscriminately. There are spaces specified for such purposes. One of such spaces is the Cat Field where I had shifted some days ago. It is an open space surrounded by high walls. It qualifies as the werewolves playground and it is one of the fields where we can wolf out in our numbers. At maximum, it can hold about 20 werewolves at a time. But because of the enclosure and size, it is not usually used for group shifting. It's Sunday, the show-day in Hopkins Citadel and unlike the faculty display that took place last week Sunday, today each faculty is having her display discreetly. The big cat instructor,

    HardinDust and dirt filled the air as Eve, Evelyn's wolf, raced through the field at a mad speed.Her fangs were deeply buried àround a human's wrist and she dragged a human body in the dirt as she ran.Pearl! My heart skipped a beat as I identified the body. Blood seeped furiously from her wrist, running down the whole length of her arm as she was dragged about."Pearl!!!" I screamed, horrified.At the sound of my voice which rang in Evelyn's head, she became wilder. Leaping through the air with Pearl's body dangling beside her, she shook her powerful jaws from side to side.Pearl's body dangled in the air like wool. Loud and painful moans tore out of her mouth as she tried to struggle free.Anger rocked my body and I shook in rage, bursting into full speed. I leapt up, catching Eve in the air. I threw my body against her with full force and dug my fangs into her neck.She shrieked in pain but she did not let go of Pearl. Swinging her head, she slammed Pearl hard on the floor as

    PearlWe took different turns and we were out in the open."Hopkins Citadel is essentially large. I haven't seen this side before," I whispered."Really? Well it's a given, you have no friend who could take you sightseeing. I am the only friend you have but you ditched me, calling me a monster," Hardin pouted."I am sorry.""Nah. You are right. To a normin like you, a werewolf is probably a monster too," he said casually."Well… Yes!""You see? I caught you…" He tickled me and I giggled, hitting him softly."Common, where are we going?" I whispered as he pecked my cheeks."This big monster is gonna eat you up," he said playfully and I hit him hard.Again our lips met and he kissed me lightly before moving forward.He didn't say much until we were in front of an enclosed field. I fell behind as he pulled me through the tiny entrance.The area was filled with well-trimmed carpet grass just like Pentium Field. I rared my head up looking at him questioningly."What is this place?"He smir

    PearlHardin saw Evelyn before she got to him. Immediately, he broke off from the blonde and shielded her from Evelyn."Evelyn! Stop this madness. There is nothing between us. Stop hitting on me! I have no feelings for you!" He yelled, making Evelyn stop.His voice was drowned by the noise in the hall but few students that were close heard him. They shot Evelyn a demeaning look and continued with their businesses.Evelyn remained rooted to a spot, staring at Hardin with an open mouth. "Come here baby," Hardin said hoarsely and turned to the red-haired girl. He lifted her chin up, and sneaked a peek at Evelyn. Slowly, he wrapped his arm around the girl's waist, kissing her hard. Evelyn's eyes shone wide and her knuckles were white.I remained transfixed in my spot, feeling so bad for Evelyn.This could be me. Yes, there was nothing between Hardin and me as well. Why did I bump into the stage? I realized my foolishness and staggered backwards.Slowly, I turned around to leave, but I h

    PearlI heard a noise from a distance, it was coming from the hall of the big cats, but as I got closer, the noise reduced and I wondered what was happening."Welcome to this grand event. It's always our pleasure to celebrate with the big cats when they find their mates. We see it as the kindness of the moon goddess towards them," Mrs Hopkins' voice boomed through the air and I hastened as I covered the last step.The hall was filled up with students. Members of the faculty of big cats were seated in the front rows. Others were students from other facilities who came to witness the event."To maintain order and a decent relationship among students, we usually celebrate this in grand style. Most often we do invite the parents of the students who are involved but due to certain reasons, Billy and Emma's parents could not show up. We therefore decided to throw a small party for them. This will in effect, make every other admirer to be aware that these two are taken," The students murmure

    Zora The cold stares I shared with Evelyn was a show. I had met Evelyn earlier and we had decided to put on a show. We had to ensure that Pearl did not notice that we were working together. Well, she is quite gullible and I knew our show would work. Leaving Evelyn behind, I smirked as I made my way to Zenden's office.Few days ago, after I had taken the potion that Zenden gave me, I was locked up in an illusionary woods the whole day.When I came around, I was mad at Zenden. Well, she only does what she wants. She ignored my outburst and proceeded with what she wanted me to know. She informed me that Pearl saved my head and she did not reveal that I was the one who attacked her in Denim woods.That fool, she should have spilled the beans and got rid of me. I hated being indebted to anyone."Her kindness means nothing to me. I will hunt her down and get back my torrent of energy!" I yelled and Zenden laughed derisively."You can't get her. You are no match for her," Zenden said in

    PearlI couldn't believe it when Dr Jacobs said I would spend three more days in the infirmary. "I thought you said I would be discharged today!" I fired."Yes but no. Sorry ma'am, you need some rest," he scoffed and walked away in his usual casual manner.The next three days were hellish. I almost died of boredom. Jayden, Pete and Billy dropped in to check on me at intervals, but neither Evelyn nor Hardin showed up.One question kept burning in my heart, who the hell attacked me in the form of a wolf? I know everyone in the school hates me and most especially those in the Faculty of the big cats, but despite the group's hostility towards me, the only person who could do that is Evelyn.Well, that is only an assertion, I will wait till I find out myself. I missed Hardin and I wanted to see him. I asked his friends severally to tell him to come but he never did.Days rolled by and after what seemed like eternity, it was time for me to leave the infirmary.That morning, I was over exci

    Mrs Hopkins I swiveled from side to side as I skimmed through the documents in my hand. I had spoken to Pearl's mother but I was shocked by her response. I realized that she brought Pearl to Hopkins because she wanted her dead.Thinking back now, I wondered how she got to know about the citadel. We have our agents out there who make contact with our prospective clients. That's how we get most of our students, but the case is different with Pearl. Since she has no super supernatural ability, no one met her parents. Her step mother contacted us herself.Yes, talking about Pearl. I almost declined her offer for admission. She is a normin and we don't accept normins. But at a closer look, I saw through her barrier. She only posed to be human, but she isn't. She is a supernatural being, one that she isn't aware of.And that was the dilemma. We don't accept her kind in Hopkins. At first, she is thought to be a normin but after seeing through her, I realized that her kind of supernatural

    PearlWhen I woke up, I wasn't in the cave. I was in a well lit room and I felt something comfy beneath me, it was a bed. Looking around, the room seemed familiar and soon I realized that I was in the infirmary."Pearl? How do you feel now? You slept for so long." A familiar voice said. Hardin's face came into view. He was hovering over me and looking intently at me."Why am I in the infirmary? You should have brought me here in the first place," I said coldly, looking away from him.He remained silent and said nothing. Slowly, he stood erect and turned around, turning his back against me."I guess I made the wrong call... If you want to stay away from me, ensure you stay safe so that I can detest you," he gritted out and made his way towards the door.My heart squeezed in pain as I watched him leave. I don't know if it was because I hurt him again or because I didn't want to be alone."Hardin! Don't go," I called out hoarsely and he halted. Without looking back, he turned the knob
