ANNABELLA’S POV
I couldn’t recognize the place the minute I stepped out of the car before the huge building of Rivers, the only werewolf college in the country, Rivers.
My eyes stared around in awe as I took careful steps further towards the huge building. Attending such a prestigious school could only be a dream if not Roman, my life changed the minute I stepped into the Turners pack and I guess the earlier I accepted it, the better for both me and Eve.
” Luna, will you be okay?” Mark, one of Roman’s men who drove me over asked and I nodded. The night was breezy and I was a bit cold but I was sure I would be fine.
What could happen to me? I could even hear the music playing inside plus the different smells that were fighting in the air.
” You can leave, I will be fine.” I turned to face him completely and I could see the hesitant look on his face.
I didn’t want to bring a driver at first because Kelly promised to pick me up but Madeline insisted I take someone with me especially when Roman wasn’t around, I didn’t know why she wanted me to go with someone so bad but I couldn’t win against her so I agreed to bring Mark along.
” I will wait here. ” He said and I rolled my eyes. Well, I should have thought about something like this happening but it was fine, if he wanted to wait then it was his call.
Madeline might have instructed him to stick around and I wasn’t going to waste my breath convincing him.
” Suit yourself ” I turned away and walked towards the gigantic building, now dressed in a lemon green outfit that ran down to my knee. My long black hair which had a chunk of gold at each side of my front was held behind my head with pins.
I didn’t know if I was overdressed but that was until I stepped inside and saw a few of the students chatting in groups.
I didn’t know how to describe it but it was indeed a celebration day. My outfit was simple yet beautiful compared to that of others.
Thanks to Madeline and her unique knowledge, I wasn’t feeling strange or anything in fact, I was over warmed.
‘ The room smells strange.’ Eve said but I didn’t think it was necessary to pay attention to her.
It was my chance to mingle with the other students and also get myself familiar with the place.
It was my life now and I had to accept it.
Everyone was luxuriously dressed and the hall was decorated to suit the moment. ( Students Union) I didn’t understand much about it though.
According to the little I knew, Rivers was built to ally the four packs that make it.
Rivers was found in between four powerful packs and Turner’s pack was one of them.
While the full moon was looking sited at the west side of the school, Turners pack sat at the north side of Rivers.
Blood Moon Pack was also one of the four and it stands on the east side with Night Pack on the south.
According to what I have heard, each of these packs has a history that connects them.” Bella” Kelly’s voice pulled me out of my thoughts.
” You look gorgeous.” of course, she took a step back and carefully examined my appearance like it was his first time seeing me.
Her brown eyes took in my appearance as if she was seeing me for the first time. The look on her face left me speechless, I didn’t know what to say to her because I thought she was overreacting even though Madeline complimented me more than once before I left the pack.
” You don’t look bad yourself.” I finally said to her. Her blue long dress which had a long cut at the side fit her body perfectly well. I doubt I would have recognized her if she hadn’t approached me since the blue light in the room wasn’t making it easy to recognize the faces of those present. The room was blinking blue and black and the heavy smell of alcohol was lingering in the air.
” Come on, I reserved a seat for us.” Kelly got hold of my hand and pulled me through the crowd. I did not know where she was taking me until we got to the corner of the hall where a few chairs were arranged.
We approached the second table which had a group of students I recognized during the past weeks I have been around.
” Here is the Luna!” Kelly yelled and I was sure everyone in the hall heard her despite the music playing in the background.
Werewolves have a clean sense and their hearing ability was sharp as a knife.
” Bella?” Florence, one of Kelly’s bitchy friends raised a brow, the doubt in her tone was clear. I used to avoid her but I guess I couldn’t anymore especially since Kelly and I would be friends for a long time!
“Do you have anything negative to say about that?” Kelly asked and she swallowed whatever she wanted to say. ” My pleasure.” John whom I recognized as a senior student got off his seat to pull mine for me.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
” You can’t say no to genuine kindness,” Kelly whispered when I stared back at her and I shrugged.
If it was a few days ago, I would have been uncomfortable sitting beside Florence anyways, it wasn’t as if I was interested in John or anyone these guys. My eyes settled in Wade Jackson, the arrogant brother of the alpha of the full moon pack.
” I’m getting bored.” Kiran complained, leaning back in her seat and Kelly scoffed. I doubt she was bored because she seemed to be having a good time and nothing else.
” Maybe joining the dance will help light up your mood.” Wade, the younger brother of the full moon alpha said and I saw how Kelly glared at Kiran.
What was I missing?
” Come on Bella. Let’s have a good time before the old students shows up.” John tried to get me on the stage for a heartwarming dance but I wasn’t interested.
I grabbed a glass and poured myself a glass and gulped it down in one goal. I was a teenager after all.
” I didn’t know how to.” I lied and I could feel Wade’s glare.
” What are we, the Stone Age time?” Florence scoffed as if saying no was a crime.” I knew you couldn’t be a Luna with this boring lifestyle of yours.” She added and I wondered if Roman also thinks I was boring.
I didn’t know why I was suddenly thinking of such but I felt a bit affected by her words.
It was okay if she didn’t believe I was a Luna but why did she have to call me boring?
” I think I’m staying at the table with Bella,” Wade said and my eyes went to Kelly, my brow raised withy lips paused together.
I didn’t know much about these guys and their relationship but it seemed there were things I didn’t know.
“No, you don’t have to. I will keep Bella company, don’t worry worry.” John said and there was a few seconds of silent among us.
Kelly stormed off to the stage, her black short hair was styled at the side and the smell of her perfume was superb. It was something similar to lemon, I guess.
” You don’t have to worry about Kelly, she is a strong girl.” Wade said in small tone that was when I realized everyone has headed to the dance floor leaving the two of us.
” I know.” I said pouring myself another glass.
” Did alpha Roman kidnap you from your pack?” Wade suddenly asked and I stared frozen for a few seconds before raising a brow.
” He is dangerous.” He added when I didn’t reply him.
‘ How dare him accuse out mate!’ Eve growled.
