I Woke Up As The Female Lead In My Favorite Novel のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

Tiara’s POVIf I had known how tonight was going to end, I never would’ve come.But everyone said it. Everyone said the Mate Festival was magic.“This is your one shot,” one of the older omegas told me as I was leaving the kitchen earlier today, her wrinkled hands full of dough. “Even girls like you… sometimes the Moon smiles on us. Don’t hide tonight, Tiara. You never know.”So I didn’t hide.I even wore a dress.It’s old, a hand-me-down from a cousin who moved away years ago but it’s white and soft and has tiny fake pearls along the hem. For once I almost felt… okay.Almost.But now here I am, standing at the very edge of the clearing while everyone else dances and laughs and cries in each other’s arms. The lights strung between the trees glitter like stars. The air is full of woodsmoke and pine and roasted meat. Music hums low.Every few minutes, another scream of joy cuts through the night. “Mate! I found my mate!”And the whole crowd cheers for them.I keep my head down. Nobody

Tiara’s POV“You gonna tell me why you ran out the way you did?”His voice startles me even though it shouldn’t. Luke’s leaning against the wall, arms crossed, watching me like I’m some kind of mystery he’s determined to solve.I don’t answer.Mostly because I can’t.What the hell am I supposed to say? Oh sorry, I freaked out because you’re not supposed to be real and I’m definitely not supposed to be here?Yeah. No.So I just stare at the floor, my hands gripping the edge of the bed so tight my knuckles ache.Luke sighs, and I can hear the faint irritation in it.“You faint in the middle of game practice,” he says, “then bolt down the hallway like your tail’s on fire. Doesn’t exactly make sense, does it?”I finally look up at him.His golden eyes catch mine, sharp and impatient and… god. They’re even more unreal up close.I swallow hard, trying to keep my voice steady.“Why’d you even bring me here?” I say.His eyebrows shoot up. “Excuse me?”“You heard me.” I lift my chin. “Why here

Luke’s POVI sat there for a long time.Just… staring at nothing.The moonlight spilled across my floor, and the faint sound of skates on ice echoed from the rink outside, but none of it mattered.All I could hear was her voice.“You’ve snuck out plenty of times to hunt…”Those words.Those damn words.How did she know that?No one knew that.Not even Elara.I leaned forward, resting my elbows on my knees, and let out a low laugh. But it wasn’t a happy sound.“You’ve really stepped in it now, haven’t you, Thorne…” I muttered to myself.Because here’s the thing.When she fainted, I caught her scent.It was faint — almost hidden — but it was there.Wolf.My instincts went crazy for a second, but not in the way I expected.It was like my whole body came alive, something u couldn't quite put in place.Something in my chest shifted, like my fate was suddenly sliding off its rails.I’d been waiting for that moment all my life, hadn’t I?Waiting to feel that bond snap into place.And now her

LUKE'S POV For what seems like every millisecond, my eyes keep going back to the wall clock on the classroom wall. Why did I even come here? This is no place for me to think! Prof. Doe’s voice begins to morph to what seems like a never ending babbling voice of a teenage girl chirping away her miserable life. I take a long hard look at Jonathan when our eyes meet. “It's not my fault,” his eyes seem to say. I need to find Tiara She's the real reason I'm seated in this Geography class to begin with. I heave out what seems to be the fiftieth time. Then I hear the sweet sound of the bell signifying the end of the period and fight every urge to fly out of my seat at that very moment. As soon as possible,I leave the class and enter the hallway, like a predator in search of it's prey. It's lovely and mysterious prey. I almost smile. But I don't see her. I move further down, my eyes not missing a single movement around me as they search for black wavy hair. I stop by the

TIARA'S POVThat was too close.After he saw us quarrelling and left, I ran into Celine, the head trainer for the hockey team.“Damn it, Tiara! Where have you been? Have you forgotten about practice today?” she asked as she pulled my arm and led me outside. It was only then that I even remembered the role of Elara in the book. She was the team's assistant trainer.I had been so distracted, I had even forgotten all about that. I followed her, got changed into a pair of sweatpants and a red hoodie, then I packed my hair up in a not so neat ponytail.It was a lot easier as I had read the novel so many times. I got the bottles, the towels and the first aid kit. I had to be there before the team and I was.My job is to hand out towels and ice packs, not stare at the perfect cut of his jaw line as he tackles his teammates. But still I don't look away. I take it all in. Every expression, every counter attack. Just reading about him does no justice. I don't even notice the time fly by
