Lily's POV

I didn’t mean to sneak off.

Really!!

But when a tiny, fluffy, heartbreakingly helpless owl drops out of a tree right in front of you, what are you supposed to do? Walk away? Let it get eaten by a fox or a snake or a squirrel with unresolved anger issues?

No.

You rescue it. Like a hero. Like a noble, powerful, extremely responsible almost-seven-year-old.

So that’s what I did.

Slipped out of the gathering circle after breakfast. Tucked my half-eaten bread in my pouch. Crept through th

    Lily's POV I didn’t mean to sneak off.Really!!But when a tiny, fluffy, heartbreakingly helpless owl drops out of a tree right in front of you, what are you supposed to do? Walk away? Let it get eaten by a fox or a snake or a squirrel with unresolved anger issues?No.You rescue it. Like a hero. Like a noble, powerful, extremely responsible almost-seven-year-old.So that’s what I did.Slipped out of the gathering circle after breakfast. Tucked my half-eaten bread in my pouch. Crept through the trees like a whisper.No one even noticed....Probably.The owl chick looked up at me with those gigantic, blink-blink eyes. Its feathers were all floofy, like someone had fluffed up a cotton ball.Imagine that? Fluffed cotton ball!I gently scooped it up, cradled it in my arms like Mama does with sick pups, and whispered, “Don’t worry, birb. I’m here. Lily’s got you.”It blinked again.I named him Tumbles.—---We made our way deeper into the forest. I remembered the old tree with the hollow

  • Wolf University: Rejected by my Possessive Alpha Mate   Side Story 4.111 - Dawn Rematch

    Johanis' POV Dawn crept over the treetops like it was trying not to wake anyone, which was deeply unfair because I was already wide awake and freezing.The grass was still damp under my feet, dew soaking into my boots as I crouched by the ring. My breath curled in front of me like tiny dragons. My arms were still sore from yesterday, but I wasn’t about to admit that. Sari wasn’t here yet.Which either meant I was early…Or he was hiding in a bush again.The latter is most likely.“You better not jump out dramatically again!” I called out into the mist.No answer.I waited, half-expecting a squirrel to throw some nuts at me. Then—“Behind you.”I spun.Sari stood exactly five feet away, looking very proud of himself. His tunic was straight, hair annoyingly neat, not a single wrinkle out of place.“You seriously get ready like it’s a festival,” I muttered, standing up.“You seriously show up like you rolled out of a den backwards.”“I did.”We stared at each other for a beat.Then—grin

    Johanis' POV The crowd hadn’t even settled when Lily stomped dramatically onto the training ring, puffed up like an offended owl.“I would like to file an official complaint!” she declared, arms crossed, chin up, pinecones still in both pockets.Rio raised an eyebrow. “You’re not on the schedule, young mistress.”“Exactly! That’s the complaint!” She spun on her heel, pointing a firm finger at the parchment pinned beside the ring. “No sparring session for our age group until two whole weeks from now?! That’s basically a lifetime!”Some of the older trainees chuckled.“I could age into a grandma by then,” Lily continued, voice deadly serious. “Do you want that on your conscience, Uncle Beta Rio? A tiny, furious grandma with a hugeeeee grudge?”Rio pinched the bridge of his nose. “Liliana, we’ve discussed this already. A thousand times at that! Your group’s still being evaluated. You will start sparring soon.”She groaned, tugging at her hair. “But I already spar with Brinn and Aya and

    Johanis' POV We barely had time to wipe our faces when Rio’s voice rang out again, slicing clean through the noise.“Next up! Aya versus Brinn.”That immediately sparked an eruption of “OHHHHH!” from the gathered pups and trainees, like someone had just tossed a fox into a henhouse.I honestly thought he would call another pair but here we are..Brinn stood, brushed off his tunic, and made a sweeping bow with a theatrical flourish. “My time has come.”Aya cracked her knuckles. “Your time has passed, squirrel-boy.”He shot her a grin. “You say that now, but wait till you see my secret move.”“I swear in Goddess’ name,” she said, already stretching, “..if it’s another somersault-and-trip combo, I’m feeding you to Lily’s weird forest friends.”“Hey!” Lily shouted from the benches, looking deeply torn. “Wait—I—who do I even cheer for??!”I didn’t envy her. Brinn was her partner-in-mischief, her designated chaos twin. But Aya? Aya braided her hair, kept her from climbing trees upside-down

    Johanis' POVHe vanished.One second, Sari was across the ring, shoulders relaxed like this was a lazy spar in the training fields. The next? Gone. Just a shimmer of dust in the space where he'd stood.I didn't hesitate. I dove left.Something—movement, wind, instinct—tugged at me just in time for Sari to appear behind where I’d been. He was fast. Not just "fast-for-a-wolf" fast. Fast like he'd been saving it. Holding back this entire time during training, like he’d been waiting for something like this.Like this.“Reflexes still sharp, young master.” he said mildly, circling me.I kept my knees bent, body low. “You tried to ambush me. During a formal duel.”“We’re not dead-serious until contact. And I made no contact,” he said, tone smug.“You almost made contact with my spleen.”Sari shrugged, stepping lightly around the edge of the circle like it was a dance floor. “You were late to wake-up call. Consider this your espresso.”I didn’t answer. I just moved.We clashed in the middle.

    Johanis' POV Someone was breathing on me.I didn’t mean like... peacefully. Not the warm, loving kind of breath that says ‘Good morning, dear sibling of mine, I bring you cinnamon buns and emotional support.'No.This was chaotic breath. Morning breath. Too-close-to-my-face breath.Then came the whisper.“Rise, Alpha of the Blankets.”I groaned. Why on Goddess’ name!? It's still so early!“Johaaa,” came a second voice—higher pitched, overly chipper, too full of menace for this hour.I cracked one eye open and was immediately greeted by Lily’s upside-down face. She was hanging off the top bunk like a deranged bat, hair a mess, glitter still stuck to her cheek from yesterday’s “pre-battle morale dance.”Behind her stood Brinn and Sari—both leaning dramatically into my doorway, arms folded like they were bouncers at a club exclusively for sleep-deprived teens. Aya, surprisingly, was the only one not performing interpretive chaos. She stood near the window, arms crossed, expression flat,

    Sophia's POVNow what would I reply to that claim of his? Nothing.. I just stared at him for a few seconds before he suddenly lifted me up.. IN MY FREAKING WOLF FORM!!!"Wait!! Carter! Shit. Don't embarrass me in front of my classmates!!" I grunted and tried to scratch his neck. He groaned a little. I

    Jacob's POVI caught his leg, and with a strong force, my hand pulled it just to whip his leg sideways. Due to my unfiltered strength, he crashed into the red-haired she-wolf."You should've dodged Sarah," Leo commented, to which she replied, "You shouldn't get dragged away in the first place!"Both of

I am also not sure about it," I answered.All of us memorized the paths that we should be taking. Sinking and drilling into our brains all of the confusing patterns and rhythms."Let's not hurry.
