The Werewolf Academy 218
Gabriel was standing with his back to me when I walked into his hotel suite. His gaze seemed to be on the view beyond the window overlooking downtown Portland.From behind his high posture looks relaxed. But when I observed him further I could catch one of his hands which was at his side shaking faintly slightly.Exactly what did He talk to Balthazar just now? I thought a little curious.He slowly turned to look at me and smiled briefly. "Do you mind if I have a quick smoke before we leave?"I shook my head then decided to sit on one of the sofas while Gabriel walked over to the small table by the window and took out his cigarette. Leaning his hips on the table he lit his cigarette and took a deep drag. I can still see his slightly trembling fingers.No matter how hard Gabriel tried to hide it, his body's gestures made it clear that he was shaken. My curiosity almost made me ask him directly about his meeting with Balthazar, but when I saw his blank eyes fixed on the carpet of this ro
The Werewolf Academy 219
"Soon we will enter my territory."Gabriel's words made me open my eyes again. Outside the window of his car the sky had turned dark, unfortunately it was drizzling to greet us.Just like other Pack territories, the Silver Moon Pack is also close to a fairly large forest area. I guess one of the main requirements for a Pack's territory is to have access close enough to the forest. Of course that makes sense, werewolves need sufficient area for them to run freely when they are in their wolf form.Too bad Leykan hardly ever transformed into her wolf form in their entire life. I want to feel what it's like to run really fast, hurtle through the trees and feel the wind in my face."Before I take you to meet Alex I have to discuss something with you ... Do you mind?"Gabriel's question broke my reverie. I turned to him with a questioning look. From his question just now it seems like he wants to talk somewhere else before we meet Alex. "We can't talk about it now?"Did he think I would agr

I was still standing frozen in place with my amazed gaze while Gabriel walked over to his little brother who had just come down from the stairs.Her hair ... Cameron Adler has shoulder length, snow-white hair. I've never seen hair that white in my life ... And her hair looks so natural, not like it's been dyed or bleached."Have you eaten?" asked his sister in a low voice.Gabriel shook his head and smiled at his sister. And he didn't show his fake friendly smile like before, but actually smiled warmly at his sister.My gaze returned to Cameron Adler who was still talking to his brother in a low voice. Not only did her snow white hair stand out from her, her beautiful face and her two semi-amber green eyes made it even more difficult for me to take my eyes off of her.How could Edward Adler feel ashamed to have such a beautiful daughter? I thought half in disbelief. I heard he tried to hide Cameron Adler from the public by locking him in the house.He suddenly glanced at me briefly be

The sound of glass hitting the floor and then shattering was very loud in the midst of this momentary silence."Cara," Alex called my name again in a hoarse voice. Her face turned pale, I could see the glint of guilt in her brown eyes. His tall body froze just like me, but a moment later his shoulders shook so faintly that the towel on one shoulder slid to the floor.No.It must be a joke."You are ... Cameron's mate?" I whispered in a tight voice. So this sickening smell I smell all over the house is Cameron and Alex's mate ... I can't smell Alex's scent that I usually recognize because it has changed now."Urgh ... " My hands darted to cover my mouth, suddenly the smell of their mate made my stomach very nauseous. It felt like my lunch was starting to slide down my throat again."Cara, please, you must hear my explanation." Alex's hoarse voice sounded closer.Slightly staggered I stood up from the couch and walked away from him.What happened? I thought over the painful throbbing in
The Werewolf Academy 222
It turns out that I'm still the same Caroline as before, in the end I can only run from all my problems.Coward Caroline.But who am I really? My steps slowed as that question popped up in my head. Am I Caroline Brennan or Gabriella Gold? Who am I? Wherever I go I feel like I have no place to return to.I've dropped the name Gabrielle Gold.And now I can't go back to the Brennans. I wasn't sure I could see Alex's face again without breaking down. My entire life as Caroline Brennan has been centered around Alex and this pseudo mate bond.Once this fragile bond is broken, I have no place to return to ... I have no reason to return to Alex.Seeing and feeling Alex and Cameron's mate bond directly made me realize that what I believed in and tried to achieve all this time was only a false hope.What's between me and Alex is different from what a real mate has. Different from what I saw and felt from Zaya and Val's bond, from Alpha Sam and Chloe, and even from my parents.A drop of hot tear

I woke up on my way back to Yellowstone territory. My head still feels dizzy and heavy but the car we're in feels very warm and comfortable, so I can sleep for quite a while. Maybe Dimitri turned the heater up. The street outside was still very dark and deserted.I forced my head to look at Dimitri who was behind the driver's seat. "How long before we get there?" I asked in a hoarse voice.He glanced briefly at me, I could not see the expression on his face clearly in the darkness of this car and my vision was still blurry."In a minute. We're almost there."My body feels weird. I've never felt this weak before. It felt like all my bones and joints were going weak, throbbing pain also continued to appear throughout my body."You didn't ask anything" I muttered still hoarsely. My throat felt dry from crying so much.Dimitri suddenly leaned over behind the driver's seat and handed me a bottle of mineral water. "Compared to my curiosity, I'm more worried about your current condition, Car

"What did you say?" I whispered half stunned.Is this all a cruel joke? I thought vaguely. But judging by his expression it didn't seem like Balthazar was joking with me. "I'm Alex's mate?" I muttered slowly.My shock made it hard for me to digest the information I just heard. It feels like just yesterday I convinced myself that we weren't real mate. "You- You said Leykan doesn't have a mate," I said a little accusingly.Balthazar did not rebut my words. He just nodded stiffly and ruffled his dark hair briefly with one hand."I didn't say you were the mate, Caroline. You know Alex's mark bite has some nasty side effects on your body, too."My forehead creased deeply while the throbbing in my temple grew stronger. "So ... I'm not his mate, but at the same time I will also die if Alex is paired with another werewolf?""Broadly speaking ... yeah," Balthazar muttered grimly. "So far that's all we know."I couldn't stop the sound of weak laughter that escaped my mouth. Isn't fate too cruel
The Werewolf Academy 225
Alex frowned angrily. "It was Vincent who came to save Cara-""Do you think that makes sense?" interrupted Balthazar ironically. "Dante is only a kid, how can he take on thirteenAlphas at once? Even a pure-blooded Leykan will have a hard time defeating them."We will never know what really happened that night. Whatever Elizabeth's reasons are, it's clear that her decision that night saved Caroline ... as well as created this problem" continued Balthazar gloomily. "Now all that's left to do is find a way to break this mate bond.""No ... " I whispered from behind the oxygen mask.All eyes turned towards me. Alex gasped when he heard my hoarse voice, his eyelids trembled faintly but he didn't take his eyes off me.I swallowed my saliva to moisten my dry throat. "Is ... Isn't there another way?""Caroline, do you really want to live like forever? Alex couldn't even give you his mark without a lethal side effect on your body. And you think only Gabriel Adler would take advantage of a sit
