“Come with me to the mall at evening?” Lara asked with a puppy dog face as we exited the school premises, “we need to hang out more. It has been ages since I got some fun times with you.”

I smiled at her, shaking my head, “A couple days later. I have plans with Alessio tonight.”

“Aw… you are on first name basis already?! I seriously need time to fathom the fact that I’m friends with luna and she gets to get away with calling alpha by his name.” Lara groaned and rushed to come in front of me, walking backwards, “but honestly, it is kind of entertaining. I feel like I’m a celebrity now.”

“What?”

“Look around!” she whispered with wide sneaky eyes, “don’t tell me you have not noticed the change.”

“What change?” I stared at her in confusion, “and walk straight. You are going to fall down if you keep walking backward, Lara.”

She rolled her eyes and came to walk next to me, “Everyone is now creeped out by you. I heard them talking and there is word going around that you are a witch.”
