The Werewolf Academy 156
The matter about the black wolf appearing in Balthazar castle territory finally reached Alpha Sam's ears. I didn't meet him in person because Balthazar hasn't let me. Even though Alpha Sam already knew and didn't mind my identity, we didn't want to take any chances.So far I've managed to contain my emotions very well. But Balthazar still wasn't satisfied with my progress. For the past three days I've been cleaning up all the leaves that fell from my power explosion. All that remains are fallen tree trunks and dried mud on the edge of the lake. I also started practicing breaking free from the light noose ofBalthazar's power. Although long and tiring, but I'm starting to be able to fight the shackles of his strength.The most serious problem right now is my face. I still look like a twenty-eight year old woman. When I asked Balthazar for his opinion, he just looked at me with scornful eyes.This time we practiced in the library. I sat on the sofa, while my body was covered, as if stic

I woke up feeling nervous on day five. Today Alex and Vincent will come. This is the first time I've been able to meet someone else after my seal was broken.I could barely taste the cereal I ate that morning. Balthazar was eating a pile of pancakes with various toppings. Every morning she always made pancakes with sweet toppings, so after the third day I asked not to make breakfast anymore."You're not going to hurt him, are you?" I asked for the umpteenth time this morning. Balthazar only gave me a quick glance before taking his dirty dishes to the sink."Balthazar you have to promise me you won't hurt him" I popcorn and follow him to the sink with my empty cereal bowl."I won't do anything as long as he's not being impudent or crossing the line" she replied in a flat tone. He takes my empty bowl from my hand and washes it all off."Thank you" I muttered. But I still feel suspicious of him."When will they come?" he asked me. Since morning a reluctant expression had appeared on his

"No" he replied. His voice now sounded amazed. "You look very ... different," then he cleared his throat because his voice was a bit hoarse. Alex hurriedly turned his attention to the bag he had just dropped and picked it up."I brought you ... " Alex didn't finish his sentence, but handed the bag to me.Ah, my underwear. Finally I don't have to wash every night. "Thanks," I replied, still awkward. I stared at my shoes for a few moments. I don't know what made the atmosphere between us so different. Could it be because we were separated for five days?No, it must be because of my new face.When I looked up to look at Alex again, he was still looking at me with those soft brown eyes. His warm gaze made me feel uncomfortable myself. I still can't believe we could turn this awkward in just five days."Like- How are you?" I asked with difficulty. Even though we just called each other this morning."Fine," he replied with a grunt. "Very good." His intense gaze made my cheeks feel hot. I cl

Alex pulled his hand away from my neck instantly as if his hand had just touched a hot pot. I reflexively turned to him. He was looking at Balthazar with a stiff expression of astonishment."Killing Cara slowly?" he said in a hoarse voice. His face paled slightly but Alex forced himself to look calm. I know because my eyes accidentally saw his hands that were tightly clenched into fists."Well, very slowly" corrected Balthazar, his voice not too sure. "What is clear is that it was your mark that triggered this anomaly.""Earlier everything was fine," said Alex, still hoarse. "My marks are faded but everything is fine."Balthazar sighed softly."Before Caroline's body was in her human mode because of my seal, now she has returned to being Leykan completely.""But my parents who are mixed werewolves and Leykan never had this kind of problem, I'm sure my werewolf father must have given his mark to my mother when they were still together." Suddenly Vincent spoke from the sofa next to us.

We walked through the passage on the third floor. Alex's face still looks dark but he's been holding my hand since we left the library. "He became even more annoying after returning to his original form, muttered Alex curtly.I smiled when I heard it. At first I thought so too, but now that I think about it,Balthazar had been arrogant from the start. His attitude hasn't changed at all. It's just that we don't find him too annoying when he's still in his teenage body, in fact sometimes I feel he's cute when he's being arrogant. But now that his body had returned to its original state, that arrogant demeanor had gone from cute to annoying. "Do you want to chat outside?"Alex'squestion broke my mind. For a few moments I thought as I walked down the stairs with him. "Are you coming to my room?" I offered when we reached the second floor.Alex looked a little surprised but gave a curt nod without the slightest hesitation. I smiled back at him then pulled his hand that was holding mine, he

I don't know how long I lay on this cold bathroom floor. My silent sobbing had stopped a while ago and was replaced with an empty feeling.Balthazar knocked on my bathroom door at a glance, I knew because I could hear his footsteps and smell him distinctly as he stood at the door. A few moments later the bathroom door opened and Balthazar came inside."Are you all right, Caroline?" he asked in a calm voice.'I guess," he muttered briefly. Alex was gone,Iknow because my super sensitive new ears can hear it too."Have you calmed down yet?" he asked again.I nodded on the floor without looking at him. After a few seconds, I was able to move my body again. I wanted to curl up on the cold bathroom floor hugging myself but since Balthazar was waiting for me I finally stood up and looked at him."Is Alex okay?" I asked darkly."Brennan is an Alpha, that just now was nothing to him.""What happened?" I asked frantically.Balthazar returned me with a sympathetic look. "It seems you feel very s

"Vincent"bI Muttered after a moment. "Is what Balthazar said true? It was my mother - my mother who instigated the massacre and the extinction of the Leykan people?"Vincent didn't answer me right away. He cut each meat sandwich in half and arranged them on a plate. Then he cleared the rest of the food on the counter and returned it to the refrigerator."Vincent."He took a deep breath and looked at me with his gray eyes. She combed her curly chestnut brown hair with one hand and sighed. "I can't blame your mother completely like Balthazar ... Your mother, she is a very ... ""Ambitious?" I continued as He looked doubtful. Vincent nodded curtly."Elizabeth was ambitious and revolutionary. She just got stuck and met the wrong people- Or too right? Depends on how you look at it," he said. He took the large bowl of salad in front of me and divided it into three small plates."Your father is the right person because he can make your mother's wish come true, both of them have the same big

"Are they still letting you investigate?" I asked worriedly because Vincent was from the Night Walker Pack too.'Of course. My presence or absence is not a problem for the investigation. The problem is ... " Vincent looked doubtful then gritted his teeth again.'What?" I insisted impatiently.Vincent exhaled loudly. "Edward Adler died the same night your seal was broken. No one has been able to confirm Alex's whereabouts that night, and Alex hasn't bothered to answer because ... " He looked at me with an expression of sympathy.Because I.Alex couldn't tell me where he was going that night because if he told the truth then I would be involved too. And I may not be present to provide my statement with my current condition. I put my sandwich back on the plate because my appetite was gone. A feeling of anxiety welled up inside me."It looks like all of this was planned ... " Vincent continued. "Because everything is too ... coincidental.""Then what will happen next? How did Edward Adler
