"Ohhh!" The air was ones again filled with shouts of exclamation. North's face flushed and hardened as a wave of embarrassment washed over his anger. He turned to me and seemed to be marking my face into his brain for next time.
"We will see where this ends!" North spat at me and pushed the other guy out of his way while storming off, everyone in his part hurriedly moving away before he transferred aggression on them.
Dais, my roommate walked hurriedly like a twit afterwards him and the two girls.
"Alright everyone!. Lunch break movie is over, take a hike or go take a bite...ohh see what I did there, Knight?" A brown skinned boy that had been standing behind knight Incase he needed support waved people off with his silly joke.
"Thank you for that. But I totally had it under control" I said confidently to the red head boy called knight, I took brief glances at his hair! They looked so much like mine, exactly the same.
I just don't get why he's not covering them up. The way he stood with so much confidence and didn't try to hide his hair like I always used to do before I met Jacob, my ex boyfriend. I quickly shoved the painful memory off my mind. I hate Jacob now and I want to forget about him.
"Oh no!. You couldn't have had it in control for long!. Do you know who that was?. That was North Hale, his father owns this school. Scratch that late father! And to all we know it might soon belong to him. Gosh! He's going to turn all of us to his minions and control this school. I'm loan by the way and this is knight. I should say your knight in shining armor," loan said standing beside knight, clad in a sports jersey.
I rolled my eyes at the way he said knight in shining armor, "Knight uhn?" I became aware of how Knight was staring deeply into my eyes, he seemed to be lost in a trance.
Knight was staring at me without saying a word, his eyes were almost like mine, but even deeper, the deepest shade of red I've ever seen.
He was clad in uniform. Silver colored trousers, nicely ironed, long sleeved white shirt and silver blazer.
"Hey, thanks though" I nodded at knight feeling awkward at the way he was staring at me.
"I haven't seen you around. You're new here right" Knight's deep voice asked.
"I thought it would be obvious by now" I said sharply, pointing out that I wasn't in uniform.
"What's your name?" He asked.
"Jessica. Jessica Bell" a small smile crept to the side of my lips. Gosh, I never thought I would meet someone hotter than Jacob and who rocks red like it's nobody's business. Loan cleared his throat, "Hm hm hm. Knight in shining armor that just saved you from an alpha wol... Sorry I meant mons... monsters. Again, I'm loan, Knight's wing man."
"Nobody cares loan. Jessica, I..i like your eyes" knight said softly.
"Oh hm" i glanced at my legs shyly hiding my eyeballs, "Yours too and..." I began to say but a loud shriek cut me off.
"Knight?. Is this where you've been?. Babe I've been waiting in the cafeteria" a girl dressed sluttily in a short silver skirt and white crop top that definitely wasn't uniform, with very long blonde hair threw herself on knight. Knight was still staring at me and he didn't hug her back.
The blonde lady had to turn to face what her boyfriend was staring at, she immediately smiled when she saw me, "You're the girl in the video everyone's been talking about. Girl! You're my new girl crush!. Way to kick that North's ass. Hi I'm Juliet, knight's one and only lady" she took my hand and shook it. The smell of her perfume almost choked me. And I could smell the tan on her skin.
"I'm Jessica, I'd love to stay but I gotta find my class. Thank you all" I hurried off feeling hurt by the fact that the only red haired person I was meeting was already taken. What bad luck!. Blue hair wasn't so bad in terms of looks, but I couldn't imagine being with someone who almost hit me. Why am I even considering North?!.
I walked briskly to nowhere feeling eyes on me in my odd clothes. Everyone else was in a Crescent valley uniform. Silver skirts for the girls with long sleeved white shirts and silver ties. Some of them had on silver colored sweaters and some had white colored vest. I had to admit they looked nice.
"Jessy!" I felt two girls bounce to both sides of me. It was the weird twins and my roommate, More and Ever.
"We just watched the video," they said together.
I've only lived with them for a couple of days and the twins were both fond of doing that, saying things together. They looked exactly alike without a single freckle to differentiate them. They both had short blonde hair and pale white skin.
"What video?" I asked absentmindedly.
"The video where you hit North Hale!. How could you?" They said together again.
"Will you two stop doing that!. And he tired to hit me first. I only did what I should have done."
"But of all people, North?" More or Ever asked..
"What's the stupid fuss about this North guy, just because he's popular?. I don't want to hear his name anymore."
"But he's not just popular!. He's everything!" They said together again.
I stopped and stared at both of them, "Point me to the counselor's office!" I simply said.
"Second floor, sixth room to the right."
"Thank you. Now get off my back and pretend you don't know me."
I walked briskly away.
****
Later that evening, I slammed my book shut after my last class for Monday, maths. Who the heck puts maths in class in the afternoon! It barely even sticks to your brain in the morning talk less in the afternoon. It was a long day, everyone had something to say about my ripped Jeans, but thankfully they gave me my uniform and now it's sitting in my locker.
Before I could get up from my seat, my roommates More and Ever rushed to me and I think the one called Ever sat on my desk, her eyes glued to her phone.
"I thought I told you two weird twins to pretend you don't know me" I groaned.
"We heard, but we didn't obey" they said at the same time.
"Have you seen the video of this girl from Beverly hills turning into a werewolf?" Ever's eyes widened as she stayed glued to her phone screen.
I immediately touched my head to check if my wig was in place and cleared my throat.
"We... werewolf don't exist!" I quickly said standing up.
More and Ever weird exchanged looks and glanced back at me, "UHM yeah!" They said together. Their almond beaded eyes glittered strangely, they looked exactly alike and, it was impossible to know them apart.
"It's probably just video effects to embarrass the poor girl" I began to pack my books into my bag.
"I can't even see her face clearly, I wanna know who she is" Ever tried to zoom in the picture.
"Hey, what are you guys doing after school?" I quickly pulled both of them by the hand.
"Uhmm. We were planning to go to a hangout. We have an event to plan" they said together, "a very special event" they added.
"Really?. Can I come?. It will be a good way for me to make friends. My first party at Crescent academy. Whose party is it?."
"Hm invites only!" More said with a nod.
"Did you two get invitations?. Don't any of you have plus one invite?."
They said together, "No."
"What kind of party is that?."
"Hm see it's sort of special. Just anyone can't come and you can't leave the school premises because you're a boarder."
"You two are boarders too and you're leaving" I said getting slightly pissed.
"We gave a quick notice."
"I can give a quick notice too. Now my mom can't stop me from attending a party!."
As me, More and Ever were about to leave the classroom, a tall guy in baggy clothes with the shyest face approached us.
"Hey" his voice was barely audible.
"Oh Sam!" More and Ever said together.
He looked down at his feet and said, "Th...tha... thank you for saving me from my brother in the morning" he told me.
"Oh it was actually a mistake" I whispered to myself. "Be a sport. It was nothing. Sam right?" I put forth my hand for a handshake, smiling kindly.
"Yeah" Sam took my hand in his but as if electrocuted, he let go and flinched back. Sam immediately looked up and stared directly into my eyes, I was so shocked at his reaction. He panted as if he had been running a long race.
"Are you okay?. Did I hurt you?" I asked in confusion trying to get close to him but Sam was off, he ran away.
"What was that about?" I glanced at the twins with a puzzled expression. "That's just Sam. He's always weird" they said together. I shrugged it off, "He said I saved him from his brother?." "Yes, that guy you pushed off him in the morning is his half brother. North Hale!. And that is Sam Hale" More said dreamily, "You really have guts messing with North, he'll get you back for it though." "I'm not afraid of some random high school bully. Tell him to bring all he's got" I said indignantly. Ever had a dreamy look in her eye, "If I were you I would be scared. North is the most popular guy in the whole of crescent valley. And also the dreamiest. He plays tennis. Oh you should just see him swimming. Like we said in the morning, you messed with the wrong guy!." "Loan said this school belongs to his father?." "Late father" More whispered as we began to head out of school. I completely ignored the weird looks I was getting as I walked, I just tried my best to blink so my red eyes becam
"You're in my seat!" Someone yelled over my head just almost immediately I sat down.. I glanced up to stare into a pair of angry blue eyes that looked strangely familiar.. "North Hale!" I found myself saying. "Get out of my seat!" He yelled, making me flinch as his blue eyes glittered strangely like More and Ever's had done, but he glittered with anger and hate. "This guy again!" Knight got up and came to stand between North and I. They were almost of the same height, North's head only rose higher than Knight by what seems like an inch and his rough sapphire hair makes him look taller. "Shouldn't you be doing your make up?. Your big party is tomorrow! And we didn't meet you in the seat!" Knight said, pushing North away by the shoulder. North staggered back a bit, "That's none of your business bastard, get out of my zone" North pushed Knight back. Heads were starting to turn towards us and it was making me feel really nervous. "You're the one who's not wanted here, an over ag
"Hey!. Wait up!. Dais!" Despite being a very fast runner, it seems Dais also has that super power because she ran faster without looking back and I was unable to catch up with her. "Get back here!" I shrieked at the top of my voice. She jumped into a black buggy that started off immediately and speed of. I stopped and cursed at myself. "Hey you can get into this one" another white buggy with More and Ever and another girl in uniform pulled up beside me, it was driven by a student in a hat. "She had my necklace" I explained getting in beside the girl. More and Ever sat in front. "Are you sure?." "Yes, yes I'm 100 percent sure. She had it hanging out of her bag. I saw it and I know it's mine" my heart was beating fast at the thought of Dais having my necklace. "We'll catch up with her at school" More and Ever said together. "Argh. Can this thing go a bit faster?" The buggy wasn't as fast as the one Dais got in and I was getting mad. "Safety first ma'am" The student tippe
NORTH "You let the new girl see you!." I yawned in boredom getting up. "I'm going for a run."Angela gasped at my reaction, "You!. Don't you even care?. Werewolves could be exposed! We could be in major danger!.""Mehh!. We're stronger than humans, we could win the battle.""We don't want a battle. We want to live in peace with humans. Sir Frederick made it clear!." "Don't you even care?. You're about to be our lycan king and you're out exposing your wolf, what if more people barge in here and see it!" Kenzie snapped. "I'm about to be your king and you're yelling at me" I said and Kenzie gulped. My coronation is in a few hours and that's what everyone has been talking about, especially Sir Fredrick, he's been lecturing me as if I don't already know and haven't been preparing for it my entire life, to take my rightful place on the throne, "You're going to be the king now and you must set a good example from the wolves," "You have to treat Sam with respect, he is your beta and you
NORTH I held both necklaces in my hands finding it hard to believe this was really it, after all these damn years. The orb is complete again, we have the ultimate power and strength of the orb, we can do whatever we want with it. We could destroy the red moon pack, we could destroy the humans, we can take over this country. Crescent moon pack can rule over Crescent valley. I laughed out loud and dropped the two half pendants on my bed, I could already picture myself as the ruler, no humans! No red moon pack! Just us, Crescent pack!. Why did Sir Fredrick have to go away today of all days. A knock sounded on my door and I rushed to open it with eagerness that was immediately washed away by sheer disappoinment. It wasn't sir Frederick, it was Lynch. She was a daughter to Sir Fredrick's cousin. She was very tall, even taller than I was, everyone called her 'Long'. She was a strong brown warrior wolf and a great asset to the pack, that's the only reason I talk to her. "Do you need so
NORTH "Because you're young and too wild and stubborn. Seems like you're not ready to be the lycan king anyways!." Sir Fredrick's voice hasn't left my head, even with the fast speed I was running and the wind blowing my ears and fur back, the voice didn't leave me. I slapped my ears against leaves and low branches as I ran to get the voice out of my head not meaning to hurt myself. Why doesn't anyone understand?. Why is everyone afraid of a war that we have won already, we have both orb! But no! All they want is to seat under sun all day and tanned. I suddenly came to a stop as my ears tickled sensitivily to a distant sharp yell. I struggled to come to a halt and my paws made deep marks in the ground as I forced myself to stop running. Immediately I stopped, I heard the voice again. It was yelling in distress and it had to be about 5 miles in the direction of school. A wolf was in troubles.I gave up on the lap I was taking and changed my roots, running towards school. I found m
JESSICA"Yes!." I moved all the way from Beverly hills running from becoming a werewolf only to jump right into the middle of werewolves. How lucky can a girl get?, Sarcastically. "Jessica, I didn't want to keep it away from you.""Yeah. I see" I swallowed the lump in my throat and headed back into the school trying to remain calm and think of the next thing to do. Transfer out!. "Where are you going Jessica?" Knight asked catching up to me."Out of this place with animals" I walked even faster. "You just got here like a few days ago and you're transferring?.""I have a genuine reason to leave. What if I get attacked by..." I couldn't mention the name, "I'm leaving for my own safety.""I hate to say, you might not find another school to take you in.""Then I'll just drop out of school." "There is no harm coming to you here, we live in peace with the human, we don't harm them and only a few know about us, welcome to that club by the way." The perfume must still be very valid, he
JESSICA"Ohh shit" I heard someone curse. There was a brief moment of complete silence before I began to hear the clear sound of laughter from different sides of the hall. I was seating there on the floor opposite my locker covered in blood and people were laughing?. What in heavens name was funny?. It reminded me of my Dad!, Blood always reminded me of how he was covered blood before he died. Their laughter reminded me of my old school, the bully, the pranks, the same pattern of laughter, I felt like I was back at Beverly hills and my life was in shambles again. "Jessica!.""Jessica!." More and Ever came to both sides of me gasping in concern. "Who did this to her?" One of them barked turning to the crowd. She was met with another uproar of laughter and no answer. "It's just tomato juice" More said taking my shaky hand, "let's get out of this place." Tomato juice!?. A low budget prank!. More, helped me up, and lead me away from the hall. We were followed by sounds of laughter
