The Werewolf Academy 223
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

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

"Then-"I sighed before Balthazar finished speaking. I've only had this sensation a few times. The last one was when Balthazar immersed my body in the lake.My heart felt like it was being stabbed by a hot knife that was slowly slicing through every muscle and tissue in my heart.An intense pain exploded from my chest. This sharp stabbing feeling felt like breaking a bone, only a hundred times more intense as all the bones in my body were crushed together.CRACK!That terrible sound broke the tense atmosphere of this room. I opened my eyes with difficulty but I couldn't see anything because Balthazar's palm was still covering my eyes.I was writhing in pain on the bed while I heard Balthazar's harsh swearing sound which somehow sounded very faint in my ear. Like He was standing very far from me, even though He was still at my side of the bed.CRACK! CRACK!"I told you to exhale slowly!" His angry screams appeared faintly again.I closed my eyes again because I couldn't bear the pain t

I stared into the face of the currently enraged teenage Balthazar while my thoughts were racing in all directions at once.Why did Vincent give me this ring?I still keep looking at his face. Balthazar slowly returned my gaze too. We stared at each other for a few seconds that felt like years."You are my father ... right?" I whispered in a tight voice.His pale face looked even paler. "I ... I don't know about this."My biological mother must have never told him, Balthazar looked really shocked until his body slumped to the ground."Oh my God ... Elizabeth." he muttered blankly.We both sat in silence until finally we heard footsteps running towards us. From the scent I could smell Dimitri and Alex were the ones heading to this location.In the midst of my shock, my stomach churned again when I smelled the scent of Alex's mate.This situation is really messed up ...My mate paired up with another werewolf ... then all of a sudden I had a dad. I looked back at Balthazar who was sittin

"When I got to the scene of the massacre-" Dimitri stopped suddenly and cleared his throat awkwardly.I turned to him with a questioning look. He rubbed his mouth with the palm of his hand in passing before continuing.'By the time I got to your family's house it was too late. Me and Viktor only had time to visit the place briefly because our main goal at that time was to confirm your condition, but we didn't find your body ... ""So that's why you guys thought I was still alive" I muttered under my breath."Of course." His voice turned deeper. "Even though we didn't know each other at that time but you are my fiance?. At first I thought they kidnapped you, but it turns out you ran away with your uncle."I turned my gaze to the rocky road in front of me while my throat felt tight. "Did ... you see the bodies of my parents there?"Dimitri didn't answer my question right away. I could feel his hesitation before he finally opened his mouth again.'I saw Gregory Gold's body, while your mo

Alex and I froze in place after hearing Balthazar's last words.We turned to him together. The scowl on his teenage face deepened when he saw me surprised along with Alex."Wait, Balthazar- So Cara is really your daughter?" Alex gasped and staggered backwards a bit. Her bright brown eyes blinked a few times. All of his previous angry expression had disappeared from his handsome face.Why did Alex say it like he already knew about this before?Balthazar on the other hand, was still glaring at her fiercely. He shoved his hands into his pockets and his face darkened even more. "I don't know. Right now there's only one person who knows the truth. Get Dante to meet me asap, he still owes me an explanation. Ah ... tell him too, I'll come look for him if he dares to run away from me." His words sounded like a death threat.Alex nodded faintly then swallowed his saliva."And you Caroline, come inside when you're done talking. And don't stand too close to this idiot" he grumbled at me as he tu

For a few seconds we stood hugging each other tightly.I hold my breath while the forest's cold wind hits us again, but I only feel it for a moment because Alex's warm body protects me from the cold.I could feel Alex kissing the top of my head gently. His hands embraced me carefully, in contrast to me who hugged him even tighter.One of my ears against his chest caught the sound of his irregular heartbeat. Just like the rhythm of my heart right now.Unfortunately I was only able to survive for a moment. My stomach, which cannot be compromised, is churning again."Urgh." I pushed Alex's body away from me before stepping back from him as far as possible. I opened my lips to take a breath, but the scent of Alex's mate bond still lingering on my body made me even nauseous.I pressed my lips tightly again before looking at Alex who was still standing in the same place. A guilty look started to appear again on his face.I struggled to force my lips into a smile. "See you in three days," I
