The Tour

*Candy POV*

I don't know how I get roped into all of this bullshit. I'm only supposed to be the resident advisor of the floor I'm on. However, it seems any time Draven asks me to do something, I feel compelled to do it. 

It's no secret that I am in love with him. He barely gives me the time of day, and since the one time we fooled around, he hasn't looked at me twice in that way. 

My friend Madeline says it's due to the fact that he's probably heard the lie I spread around to keep the other girls away, and is disgusted by my actions. I laugh at her when she says it, because I think it's funny. 

"You are going to end up losing your job if you don't stop, Candy. That lie could ruin his reputation for nothing. His family, and their ties to the royal family will destroy you in the end," she would say, and I would shrug her off. 

I don't see the harm in saying things went a little further than they actually did. We only did some very heavy making out, and I ended up blowing him in the end. However, in my truth, it was a hot, steamy, passionate night. Something I had only wished had happened. 

The morning after that happened, I received a text from him saying that from that point on, we were just friends and co-workers. Nothing would ever come of us because he wanted to wait for his mate. 

He was 23 at that point, and he still hadn't found his mate. So, I made it my point to ignore the text, and woo him into being mine. I'm still working my charms, and eventually, he will give in. 

You see, he only has a few more months before he takes over as Alpha of the Silver Springs pack. He has to have a Luna, and if he hasn't found his mate, he has to take a chosen one. The way I see it, I'm as good of a choice as any. 

These girls in this new group are very moldable. I've already spotted the mean girls, and can pinpoint who they like to aggravate the most. Remi, Naomi and Constance remind me of me at their age. I think I'll take them  under my wing.

"Girls, my name is Candy and I'm going to be showing you around today. We will stop at the stairs leading to the dorms, and when headmaster Draven rejoins us, I'll take you to your rooms. Follow me," I announced. 

I started towards the cafeteria, and made my way to each hallway, explaining what was what as we went. When we got to the library, the girls were given large bags full of things they would need for their classes. Mostly textbooks, supplies and their schedules, but some had essentials for any sports activities they belonged to.

After the library, we made it back to the staircase. I noticed Remi and her friends talking among themselves, so I made a point to approach them, and maybe take them under my wing. 

"So, how do you think you will like it?" I asked. Remi turned her head towards me, and her eyes looked me  up and down. With a smirk, she shrugged her shoulders.

"I don't know. It depends on how strict the instructors are going to be. I can already see the students aren't worth a shit. Especially the ones standing around over there. It also depends on you, my new friend," she replied.

"Me? What do you mean by that?" I asked, already knowing the answer. 

"Well, you see, we aren't the type to do what we are told. I'll even be honest, there are some people that I like to make miserable because of who they are. Call me a bully, call me trouble, I don't care. If I don't like someone, I'll make sure they go away. I'm having trouble getting one to vanish, and just because we aren't at Hardwick anymore doesn't mean I won't keep trying," she replied. I think I underestimated this girl. However, she is just like me at her age. 

You see, when I first started at ShadowFen, I was bullied relentlessly by a group of girls. When I stood up for myself, and ended up fighting Sasha Cornwell, I became the leader of that same group of girls. After that, no one fucked with me, because I was the one making sure others suffered at my hands.

"Hey, what you do is what you do. As long as no one is injured to the point of needing to be hospitalized, I don't care what you do. If you need help, let me know. I know all the secret places to hide in this place. So, who are the weaklings in this group?" I asked.

Without hesitation they started to point girls out who were under their radar. Any other advisor would be appalled, but not me. I felt like they did. Weak links needed to be weeded out. A school is only as weak as its most pitiful student. 

"Then there is the biggest pain in my ass. Sage Thorne. Her parents were traitors, and our alpha took care of them for it. According to him, her dad was trying to take over his title. Treasonous parents have treasonous kids. The alpha took care of her parents, and I'm going to take care of her when the time is right. She hasn't been willing to leave willingly, so I'm going to make it to where she is forced to leave," she smirked.

On second thought, I think this girl is far worse than I ever was. If this Sage is not careful, Remi will make sure she ends up like her parents. Dead.

I wanted to encourage her to be careful, and not go too far, but I couldn't. There was something about that Sage girl that rubbed me wrong as well.

I don't know if it was her as a person, or the attention that Draven was going out of his way to give her. Either way, I had a feeling she and I weren't going to get along either.
