LiliethI can't stop thinking about my mother's words, and it has been three days since I last saw her.I've turned her words around and around, and all I can conclude is that there's something big coming. A war. Something equally as serious.The whole lesson today is on battle strategies and how our pack, back in the day, won several wars against competitors that have now gone extinct. Interesting, yes, but my mind is so full that I can barely pay attention to it. The notebook in front of me is empty and has been for the last few days.What did my mother mean when she said a friend was watching me? What friend?I've been keeping a close eye on the Omegas who work around the academy. Those in the dining hall. The others who do all the cleaning. I come across them occasionally, and they all give me pointed looks. I can't even figure out who my mother's friend can be."Training will start tomorrow," the new instructor, Mr. Ferris, says. "You need to be prepared for the three days you'll

Lilieth"I won't ask you again, Omega-born," Mr. Ferris grits out. "Where did you find this book?""As I explained to you, I found it in my room. I have no idea who put it there, to where it came from. I'm telling you the truth!""Do you expect me to believe that?" he asks almost angrily. "This is a banned book and was taken from the private collection in the library. You couldn't have gotten your hands on this without stealing it!""I don't know anything about any collection. Like I said—""Enough," he exclaims. A vein on his forehead is pronounced, and the edges of his eyes are red. He's very angry, and I have the feeling that there's more to this book than I initially assumed because he wouldn't be acting this way unless it was important. And why would such a book matter?It's just a story. Fiction.I've never heard of the people mentioned in the book, and of course, everyone knows that Alpha-born are the leaders, not these Emberborns.Is that why the book is banned and there's no

LiliethSince I haven't been able to attend any of the classes, I've been focusing on working out and for the past five days, I've been running early in the morning, like Timmon does.It's been a huge help.I love how quiet and misty the world is during the early hours of the morning. Everything is so still, and it's easy for my mind to mimic the silence surrounding me. I haven't come across Timmon or anyone else during my runs, so it feels like I'm the only one at Noctem Lunae.Beats staying in my room all day since I'm not allowed to go to classes. My suspension isn't done yet.I can sense something brewing in the air, and I have no idea what it is. I'm fairly sure that it isn't paranoia—something is about to happen, and all I can do is wait for it to happen.By the goddess, I hope I'm wrong.I keep on running, the burn in my legs making me feel oddly alive. Excited. It's the reason why I've been sticking to running for so many days—I feel well whenever I do this.I'm just passing t

LiliethMy first training session proved to be a success, and I've been doing well ever since.I'm not keeping track of who's the weak or strong contestant; I'm just taking care of myself and making sure I do the best I can.But even that isn't enough for Instructor Ferris.He's been watching me suspiciously for the last two days, and I have this bad feeling in my chest. I wouldn't care about what he thinks if it didn't mean I'd be suspended. I've missed precious lessons on survival and battle strategy, and I don't want to risk getting lost in the woods for three days, which is how long we're meant to stay there, fighting for survival.I shoot the arrow and it hits the bullseye. I celebrate deep inside of me, grateful for Timmon's help once more, when I hear Instructor Ferris say behind me, "Who taught you to do that?"Every time he speaks, it grates on my nerves. Ignoring him isn't an option, though, not unless I want to get expelled. A few weeks ago, I would've been glad to leave, b

LiliethHe's standing in the doorway, his arm resting against the doorframe.I sit up, rubbing my eyes. For some reason, my vision is extra blurry—this tends to happen whenever I haven't slept that long. It's like three in the morning."Alpha Cadeon?"His eyes are scanning my face. Once the sleepiness starts to fade, my heart's pace increases. What's he doing here at this time of the night? How did he even open the door when I make sure to keep it locked?Or did I leave it unlocked accidentally? I'm so confused. I don't even know anymore."What are you doing here?" I ask again, my voice firmer.Alpha Cadeon pushes himself off the doorframe and starts toward me slowly. My eyes follow him. In alarmed, but at the same time, not as terrified as I should be. When did his presence stop being so threatening to me?His eyes are on my face, searching. They have a strange look in them, something I've never seen before when he looked at me: lust. I'm fairly sure. Some of the drunks back home use
