As Nebula runs up the stairs to her class, I run to my classroom. My first class is charms and potions class with Mrs. Silvia Hart. She is a nice teacher that smiles at every student when we walk in through the door: but get her mad and she becomes your worst nightmare. She smiles and bows at me as I walk in the room. Then again, so do all the students. I feel a little uncomfortable but I nod at everyone as I make my way to my desk. I pull out my textbook for this class, but stop as Mrs. Hart' crystal ball chimes lightly and glows. Everyone watches her as she makes her way to it on the side.
She answers lightly, "Hello, this is Mrs. Hart's class. How may I help you?" The crystal ball that is in all the classrooms doesn't show the person trying to call as mine does but you can still perfectly hear the person. As the person talking to Mrs. Hart, her body starts to shake slightly as she responds with a "yes, High Priestess, I will tell your daughter, Merry Meet m'lady." and with that, the crystal stops glowing. I just watch Mrs. Hart, noting how her blood is pumping faster in her veins. Her brow starts to sweat as she looks over to me, fear in her eyes.
"Miss Hallelle, the High Priestess is here, and she requested your presence in the headmaster's office, please go now. You are excused from class today." With that, I stood up, gathered my stuff and walked over to her to get the pass from her. We nod and I step out of the room, bumping into a warm body made with amazing hard muscles. Just as I was about to fall, warm arms encircle me. I look up and find whom the body belongs to. Lucian Wolfe, an alpha werewolf and the hottest guy in school. His light brown hair was almost blond under bright lights.
His soft smile is so enchanting and dazzling, I didn't notice he was speaking to me. I mentally slap myself and kick myself in the ass, focusing more on his lips. Those perfectly shaped lips, looking like they want to beg me to lean in. Right before I am about to, I snap into focus when his lips are near my ear, quietly whispering "Are you alright, Miss Hallewell? I didn't hurt you did I?"
His sweet deep voice was melodious to my ears. I take a breathe and smile, telling him "I am fine, Mr. Wolfe. Did I hurt you?" I bite my bottom lip lightly as I wait for his reply.
His eyes smile at me as he shakes his head. His eyes traveled to my lips watching me bite at them softly. Parting his lips, I see his tongue lick at his bottom lip.
Our heads snap apart as someone clears their throat. Lucian quickly drops his arm from around my waist as my aunt walked out of a room close to us, closing the door behind her. I stare at her, a question forming in my mind but before I can voice it, stares at Lucian and nods her head. He bows and looks at as he winks at me, a soft smile on his lips as he bows to me then walks away.
As I stare after him, I feel Aunt Odessa came up behind me, throwing her arm over my shoulders. I lean into her with my head against her shoulder, her mouth presses against my forehead softly.
"Oh, my beautiful niece, I have missed being able to kiss your forehead and hug you. Come, your mother is waiting for you." As she grabs my hand, we walk toward the headmaster's office.
As we made our way, my brain decided to travel down the path of what if's. Many possibilities were in my head, not all good but not all bad. I bite my bottom lip nervously, was my mother willing to tell me the truth, after all this time?
We walked up to the Headmaster's door, the knob turned just as auntie was reaching for it. She pushes me inside quickly, muttering she loves me and we will talk later.
