CHAPTER XLVIII
Lyka
Everything happens in slow motion. From the time Gabriel shields me to the time Helena's evil power hits him like a bullet casting him to the side. I can't believe whatever is happening at the moment when I gaze at Gabriel's body on the floor to Helena's amused face. Coming to my senses I run to his limp body which lays lifeless on the ground. His heart is not beating. He is not opening his eyes even when I shout at him to open his eyes.
I am surrounded by a hound of wolves lunging at each other and tearing each other into pieces when I try to yell for some help. That is how it hits me that it is the full moon and I am amidst a war. I am the only human still standing. Gabriel however lies on the ground oblivious of whatever is happening.
I feel like my own heart is being ripp

"You do realise everyone at campus is talking about you." Samantha casts me a look. Hopefully Samantha lent me a pair of her emergency sneakers. They are way better than slippers for a start.As we walk into the cafeteria, I don't miss the looks people give me. "Great day for being a celebrity." I mutter sarcastically as we settle down at our table."People are just being assholes like they are. Ignore them." Sam murmurs."So tell me about Mr hot pants." Samantha winks at me.

I painfully open my eyes adjusting to the brightness in the room. The light evading my eyes causes me to wince in pain. Why didn't I bother closing my curtains damn it? My head pounds so hard that it might explode. Might have been the cheap booze at the party. With Julian at the party parading her new catch, I wouldn't mind.Wait a minute, I don't remember taking anything at the party. The thought makes my eyelids flutter open clearly. White walls, grey linen curtains, white marble floor stare back at me as I scrutinize my surroundings. This is not my room. Immediately, I step out of the covers the headache gone in an instant. My heart throbs in panic. I know my mom and I are well off thanks to my dad's money he left before he died but this room screams excess luxury.I hope this turns out to be a really bad dream. Gazing up at the white ceiling, memories of last night flood my brain piece by piece without leaving any details out. Party. Julia

I glare at him."Really Gabriel? Is this what we are going to deal with?" Marco addresses with distaste. I am going to assume Gabriel is his middle name with how frequent everyone addresses him with it.Gabriel glares at Marco. "Will you tell her already so we can get this over with?" Marco nudges impatiently. I really don't like Marco. Grumpy and impatient don't suit him."I agree with Marco. The sooner the better." Ethel adds. The room falls silent for a second before Gabriel says the statement that undoes me."Olivia is not your real mother, Lyka."Silence. Did I get that straight? The woman I have known my entire life is not my mother. This is got to be some sick joke. On cue I let out a dry laugh but I stop as soon as I start when no one follows a
