Rosaline had not been to her garden in years. It used to be her secret haven, till she neglected it. The garden itself reeked of reject.
She used to visit the garden anytime she was lonely, unsafe or feeling unsure about something. The last few years she had found solace in something else and didn't have any use for it anymore.
Since she also rarely let anyone except her and a few appointed servants tend to the garden, it became forgotten when she abandoned it.
It was overgrown with grass, weeds and wild flowers and thick shrubs covered almost every part of the garden.
The apple tree was meant to be the jewel of the garden. The way Rosaline planned it they would be drinking in the a
"This is where you'll live now. This will be your new home."Alpha Superior Eli said to Viola as they both stood in front of the pack house. He patted her gently while the guards stared at her suspiciously.Something about her smelled off to them. She smelled human. A human among their midst? It was preposterous.Viola was still feeling a little sore and tired from all the running.They had run all the way from the Council Building to Ortus Solis, their pack territory.In their wolf form. She thought he was kidding when he had told her they were going to have to run to get home like most wolves did.She thought he was kidding when he started removing his clothes and she had to quickly look away.She only turned to look at him when she heard his low growl. She had never seen his true form, but it was as beautiful as it was monstrous.He was big, that she knew. He was hunched over and even his low growls were powerful
Three weeks later."She will be here any moment now. Her luggage arrived a day earlier."Sydney said as she slipped the file of Viola Dumonte on the Principal's desk. He reached for his glasses and placed it on his face with shaky hands.The last few weeks had been terrible for him, his health was deteriorating rapidly."Viola Dumonte?"He sighed and Sydney nodded in reply. A new student and one with a lot of controversy too. The Academy was getting more and more interesting."The whole of Avalon has been buzzing ever since she arrived. Everyone wouldn't stop talking about her.""And that is exactly that kind of controversial student we should be avoiding."Principal Claude said as his mind went to Cora Windsor. He still would never forget how much trouble she had gotten him into with Beta Landon.One way or the other he would find a way to make her pay for it. He was tired of having to clean up Alpha Superior's messes a
Viola Dumonte was much shorter than Cora as they stood in front of each other, although Cora had always been a tall girl. She was taller than most girls in her class who were of average out.Cora still couldn't believe it, the tiny woman on front of her was responsible for going wild and ripping humans to shreds.Cora Windsor liked Viola the second she met her. She had heard about her, a lot sooner than everyone else. Her father was the one who notified Alpha Eli when he got the news. He was the one who broke the news to the Alpha Superior. Cora had been expectant ever since then. Even though she had been in Avalon for quite a while, she still felt the stigma that came with the fact that she spent all her life in the human world. A lot of werewolves, especially from her pack liked to taunt her about it.Seeing someone with a similar experience was refreshing. Although in Viola's case she was different. Everything about her was going to be different
Viola was put in the third year class despite knowing so little. Her father expected her to catch up quickly with everything else, forgetting that it was almost impossible to cram three years of study into a year. Nevertheless, the Principal abided with his wishes because he was Alpha Superior.She located her dorm room with the help of Sydney. She also found out that she only had one roommate. A girl who was also a Lycan, like her, but older. Viola had the crazy feeling that her father had planned it.He had told her a lot of things and one of the things he tried to make her understand was that being a Lycan meant they were superior to other werewolves. He also let her know that the pack traditions and rules were to be followed strictly.The girl in her dorm room smiled at her, she was arranging the bookshelf next to her bed."I'm Kristen. You must be Viola. I've been waiting for you since yesterday."Kristen stretched her hand and Viola eag
One week Later.Viola was adapting well. Well, as well as she could. At least Kristen had been helpful with her classes, because she had been completely clueless about them. Avalonian history, Avalonian politics, defense class, magic class etc were all very strange to her no matter how hard she tried to understand them. She just wasn't used to learning them.Sydney mentioned something about her getting a personal guide, also known as a dux. Someone that will help her with her books and studying. It was a great idea! She knew she was definitely going to need help with everything, especially with her being a new student with no knowledge of her being a werewolf.She was at least learning to adapt with her environment, Kristen her roommate had been very helpful to say the least and a few girls around the dorm had approached her quite a few times.She was walking to towards the Quadrangle which had become her new favourite place when she saw Cor
"Guys...""What's going on?"Cora asked suspiciously as she stood up quickly and Noah shook his head."It's nothing. It's fine."He murmured and left hastily, leaving Viola startled and all of them shocked."What happened?"Cora asked Viola.Viola didn't understand either. She was still trying to wrap her head around it. She watched Noah walk away from the quadrangle and disappear into the crowd of students on the field."It's not like him to just leave like that. I'll go see if something is wrong."Everett murmured as he stood up, leaving Viola and Cora alone.Cora touched Viola's shoulder gently."Is everything okay? What happened?"She cleared her throat and blinked. She couldn't even explain what happened. She was just as confused as every one else was."Yes, yes. Everything is okay. I just... I don't know...""Was it Noah?"Cora was very concerned.Viola shook her
Alpha Superior Noah.He was unforgettable. How could she forget his face. She had barely seen him or even said a word or two to him and yet she couldn't get him out of her mind. It was hard. She wouldn't stop drifting to the perfect work of art that was Noah.He was perfect. His midnight black hair was cropped closely to his scalp, making it hard for her to know whether or not he had curly or straight hair.His eyes were the green of fresh dew glinting in the sunlight off a leaf of green emerald. His lips were pale and full and his nose slender and rounded. A prominent jaw curved gracefully around and the strength of his neck showed in the twining cords of muscle that shaped his entire body; strong arms, bold thighs and calves, a firm chest and abdomen.He had a muscular build, even underneath the uniform she could still trace the visible outline of his body.Even after pestering Cora for answers, she got none of them answered. He was an alph
Nestled in the woodland, in those parts, was a mansion. It was the pack house, Viola's unofficial home for the past few weeks.It's windows were as shy eyes, large enough to welcome any ray of sun. The rock walls belonged right where it was, as if perchance it had grown up right from that hallowed ground. It was as if it had been called into existence to protect those who came to dwell within, to quell the elements and allow a heat to build from hearths into the inhaled woodland air.She found it beautiful, the structure was old but somehow it was still perfectly modern. Sure, it wasn't something she would have seen in New York or any other state in the country but it was better looking than she had thought.She sighed as she walked into the pack house. Scratching her belly that was itching from the clothes she had picked up in one of the tree trunk. She had been made to run. Freya unfortunately didn't bring her horse and they had to run to the pack.
