Sylvia's POV:
Several dormitories were assigned for girls --they were all interconnected through small pathways, hooded with tall redwood trees on either side. The sunlight sprinkled on my body through the branches, making me feel warm and cozy.
My dormitory was located on the innermost side of the school. Although it was a remote place, it was brightly lit.
The dorms were allocated based on the classes, and they had assigned a twin room for me. But when I remembered that I was the only she-wolf on the list of Class A, I thought I should stay alone.
Thinking of this, I breathed a sigh of relief and randomly picked a bed.
However, as soon as I put my luggage down, a pretty she-wolf with short hair darted inside, carrying her luggage; she was sweating profusely. It looked like she was my roommate. I hadn't seen her before -- she looked very unfamiliar. I wondered if she was from another class.
She put the bag down and began gasping for breath. Then, she took a water bottle out of the bag and drank it in one gulp. "I'm exhausted!"
I was hesitant to initiate a conversation. After all, lots of students here despised me because I used to be a slave. But seeing her like this, I couldn't stop myself. I walked over and handed her a tissue. "Wipe your face. Did you climb the stairs?" "Yeah, I didn't expect an enormous castle not to have an elevator. I have a lot of luggage." The she -wolf shook her head and took the tissue from me to wipe her face. "Thank you. My name is Flora, and I'm from Silver Moon Pack. I was ranked twelfth. I am here to replace Toby after he got kicked out of Class A."
Flora's friendliness surprised me. Hearing her words, I wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. "Flora, there is an elevator in this castle."
Flora looked horrified. "There is an elevator? How is it possible? I looked for it everywhere."
"The elevator is behind the bookshelf on the first floor. I also looked for it for a long time. Not many students live in this building, so it's not surprising that you didn't find it," I said in a low voice because I didn't want to irritate her. "What? How can we spot the elevator if they keep it in such a secret place?" Flora grunted, patting her leg.
