A lot happened in the camp. I met almost all of the pack members and they welcomed me like a family. They were all amazing! Elijah, the alpha, had 3 girls. None of them were his mates, which was surprising.

"Alphas can get as many girls as they want, as long as he can protect them." Elias told me when he sensed my curiousity.

I had imagined Elijah to be more possessive, controlling, mean, and a bad boy. He wasn't. Maybe he is a little bit, but the side he showed me was compassionate and he was kind. The only person who actually intimidated me was Annabelia, Elias' mom.

She never smiled at me, nor gave me a hug. She wasn't in the camp when me and Elias were about to leave. 

Some members of the pack promised me that they will guard my backyard and front if necessary. They said that since I am a part of their family, that I was to be protected. It was kind of them.

"This sucks." I groaned. I was putting my homework in my bag.

"Hmm?" Elias turned to me. He was by the window, looking at the wolves....werewolves running around my backyard.

"School. Why did you wanted to be a teacher?" I sat down on the edge of my bed. Elias walked towards me and sat down at the side. He layed his back down and he was looking up to face me.

"I didn't," He said with a smile. "My fate told me my mate was there, so I pulled some strings and became a teacher."

"Why do you even like science?" My expression looked like I smelled something bad.

Elias chuckled and played with my hair. "It's fun."  

I groaned. "You were probably a nerd when you were in high school." This time, Elias stood up and sat beside me.

"No, not really." He said. He looked like he was trying to remember something.

"What were you, then?" I asked, looking up at his sunset eyes. It was a beautiful view.

"I never went to a human high school." Elias scratched the back of his head.

"There's a werewolf school?" It sounded stupid when I say it out loud, but it was a surprise.

"No. It's an educational establishment for immortals." Elias looked at me as if he's searching for something in my eyes. My reaction.

"Oh." Was all that came from my mouth. I had a lot of questions. What was it like? What kind of immortals? Where was it? What did they teach?

"Science was our main academic. Science and History." He explained.

I nodded, listening to him elaborate. He explained how each supernatural being had different homerooms but had classes all together. The vampires weren't nice persons, he said. But if they didn't bother the weres, they wouldn't bother the vampires.

"Are you still gonna teach us?" I asked. Maybe since Elias found a mate, that he'll stop being a 'teacher'. It would be really awkward. I don't know if I should tell my friends, and I really want to. 

Elias looked at me as if I asked a stupid question. "Of course." He smirked.

"But I'm dating my teacher. That's so weird." I sighed.

"No," He began. "You're dating a werewolf."

"I still have to tell my friends that-"

"You want to tell them?" Elias looked sort of sad.

"Can I?" I looked up at him. I heard him sigh and placed a hand on my thigh.

"The part where you're dating your teacher, or your pet is a werewolf and your teacher, or both?" Elias sounded sarcastic, but I could tell he was serious.

"Where should I start?" I asked. "That I'm a wolf." Elias answered. I nodded, then rested my head on his shoulder.

We sat together for a while until the sun began to set. I heard howls from outside and my eyes lit up in excitement.

"Let's watch a movie!" I screamed, running downstairs and popping my recliner couch. I heard Elias chuckle and stood right at the end of the staircase.

"Way to ruin a moment." He smirked. I stuck my tongue out. "I'm making the moment better," I said, taking a bunch of blankets from the closet and scattered them around the couch.

"Go make popcorn." I ordered Elias. He laughed and walked to the kitchen while I opened Netflix on my TV. There were a lot of movies and I felt like watching a sweet romantic movie.

We're not watching The Notebook.

Elias gritted his teeth and complained on my mind.

"We're watching Dear John!" I said. Okay, maybe it's not exactly sweet, but it still counts as a romantic movie.

Elias groaned and walked to me with a bowl of popcorn. The smell is intoxicating and I grabbed a handful and stuffed them in my mouth. Delicious and warm.

I turned the lights off and the movie started. 

"I'm gonna cry," I said, putting my hands on my mouth. Elias wrapped an arm around me and looked at me. "Stop being a chicken. The movie just started."

"I read the book like 50 times and I always cry in the end." I muttered. He chuckled.

"My poor baby." Elias said, kissing my cheek.. He grabbed some popcorn and gave himself a mouthful. He grabbed a few and feed me one by one. It was a perfect night.

++++++++++

"This part is so depressing!!" I covered my face when the part where John reads the letter from Savannah about the marriage.

"Shut up." Elias told me. He was really into the movie. His eyes wouldn't leave the big screen.

John burned the letters and I fought myself not to cry.

"Oh my gosh!" I screamed. "He burnt them!!"

"I know!" Elias screamed back. "Like, O- M- G! Can you believe it?!" He said in a girly and high pitched tone. I bursted out laughing and he chuckled too. I cuddled beside him. I fitted perfectly in his arms. It was a great feeling. 

"The girl is crazy." Elias breathed out.

"Yeah," I said.

"Let's watch something else after." Elias whispered in my eye just before the credits roll.

"Like what?" I asked, looking at him. He grinned and squinted his eyes, smirking. "Something scary."
