Luna Raine

XXXIX. Lunula High School

Raine's POV:

It was one of those days, where it should be cold; but it wasn't. Instead, the sun was bright and early. It was much too early to function properly. My eyes squinted once the rays expanded across the sky. It felt warm, but when I took my sweater off, I'm chilly.

"Well, here we are," Harvey said.

Everyone around me was wearing shorts and a t-shirt while I'm covered in jeans and a jacket.

They weren't kidding when they said werewolves' temperature is much higher than humans.

I shoved my hands inside my pocket and ignored the curious stares around me. Of course, they're interested in me, I'm sexy. No, let's be realistic. It's because I'm human and their supposed Luna.

The paperwork to transfer into Lunula High School happened much faster than I anticipated. I guess no one in the government really cares that much about an orphan.

"I'll escort you to the office for your schedule," Harvey said. I nodded once and followed him into the building. All school buildings somehow look the same, maybe some campuses appear more elegant than others. While we made our way towards the biggest one, I noticed a few not too far off of campus.

"What are those?" I ask.

Harvey glanced over, "Oh, that's the dormitory. Some kids live on campus."

"Why?"

"Various reasons. Orphans who don't want to become rouges. Parents don't want them to be at home. Parents are away for business. It can be anything."

"Why aren't they at the Pack House?" I question.

"Not enough room. Pack House nowadays is more for those who really work for the Alpha. Not everyone in the pack personally communicates with the Alpha. Some never even saw how Leon looks," he explains.

I didn't question any further.

The corridors were bustling with students and various adults. It was chaotic, filled with noisy chattering once in a while. I can sense it, the stares. The moment I look at them, their heads would turn away.

It's the same as any other high school except with more stares toward me.

We made it into the office and the woman on the front desk gave us a bright smile. "Hello, Gamma Harvey," she said. "How are you today?"

"Hello, Beth. I'm good. Thank you for asking."

Beth tilts her body and her smile widens. "You must be Luna Raine. Welcome."

I nod, "Good morning." Beth seems like any other lady. Large sweater and oversized glasses. The thing that seems to comfort people who approach her are her smiles, warm and inviting.

"Give me a second. I'll grab your schedule." She got up from the chair and went to the back of the office. Not too long after, she came back with a small slip of paper. She hands it to me, "Here you go. We scheduled your classes according to your old schedule. If there's anything that seems off. Feel free to come and talk to me."

I nod, "Thank you."

Harvey bid Beth goodbye and we returned into the hallway. It was less noisy, and when I heard the warning bell; I knew it was time for students to go to class. Before we went to my first period, Harvey gave me a tour around campus which includes the library, computer room, cafeteria, and gym.

"I'll come by to pick you up after school," he said.

I nod, "Okay."

Harvey tilt his head, "Are you okay?"
