I dropped my head on the table.

"Hey, what did the table ever do to you?" Amara's boyfriend, Dax asked.

"Shut up." I groan.

"Hey, you not hungry?" Amara asked.

"Nope," I reply, "I'm not hungry."

Two weeks of school passed by and it's already September. Two weeks since I've found out that Jurian is my mate, two weeks since the dinner with the Knights'.

The cafeteria is filled with people. I mean, a lot, a lot, if people.

"Ah!" I touched the back of my head that someone just elbowed. I turned around and saw a guy who looks like he's in junior year.

"I'm sorry, Breeze." He mumbles.

"Sure," I muttered. "I'm going to go to the library."

"Seriously?" Dax said. "Do you need us to accompany you?"

"No, it's fine." He was about to say another thing but I already got up and left the table.

I made my way out the door but bumped into someone.

"I'm so sor-" But that someone was Jurain. His bright green eyes gazed into my deep blue ocean eyes. Our hands were right next to each other and shocks were made. I don't know why but I walked away from him.

"Breeze," his voice was so gentle and soft. His hand brushed against mine but I continued forward. Despite what happened between us, I feel like I'm missing him. How can I, when I don't even know anything about him?

I opened the door to the library. There are two different kinds of libraires in the school. The public one and the abandoned library. The door has a sign that says "No entering" but I didn't care much. The abandoned library is my favorite place to get away or to just hang out.

I looked around the shelves of dusty books and searched for a book to read. After a few minutes, I came across a book that was hidden in a pile of ripped books. I picked it up but my phone buzzed and I checked it.

Amara: Breeze! The bell's going to ring. HURRY UP!

Breeze: OMG HOLD ONNN!!!

Amara: Don't OMG me, lady.

Breeze: Coming now.

I put it back into my pocket and left the book right where it came from.

"So, students. Homework for tonight is to study the history of wolf transformation." Mr. Martin assigns.

The class groaned. This is my last class for today. The bell rang and several of the students ran out. I grabbed all of stuff and left the class. Kyran walked up from behind me and tried to scare me.

"Didn't scare me." I said when we reached my locker.

"How come you don't get scared? He asked.

I grabbed a piece of gum from locker and popped it into my mouth. Kyran tilt his head, waiting for my answer. He start to make funny faces. The faces he made were hilarious but a laugh didn't come out.

"I don't know. Why?" I said when he was done.

"Hm, yeah no. I don't believe that." He retorts.

Someone tapped my shoulder and I turned to see who it is. A girl I never saw before said, "Mr. Martin wants to see you right now." I was about to question why, but she walked away. She had bright red hair and freckles that sprinkled her all over. But her eyes was what caught me. It was so on fire and it's like it can kill me if she glared at me.
