CHAPTER 30: The Three Reasons
"MY NAME IS Lilian Jade Montgomery and I am the Luna of Moon Stone Pack," Lilian introduced herself in front of the pups when she was given the go signal to speak in front. She's smiling in front of the kids as they stare at her curiously.
It drifted her thoughts to the pups in Midnight Pack for a moment. The school of pups in Midnight pack isn't like this. The Jade Alistair School is far nicer than the school in Midnight pack. The walls here are painted with cute paintings of butterflies, flowers and small pups playing. It was pleasing to see since it's also colorful. It somehow made Lilian happy seeing the kids enjoying it while learning.
It reminded her of the system before. Every pup isn't privileged enough to go to school unless they are a daughter or son of a higher ranked wolf. But now... they are all here. Some of the kids are familiar with her but she couldn't recall their names anymore since she's gone from this pack for a year or more.
Lilian's gaze went to the side when she saw Alpha Karius talking a bit to Teacher Naia. Teacher Naia will sometimes laugh as she would also playfully slap Alpha Karius biceps. She's purposely doing it, that's what Lilian thought as she looked at the both of them.
Teacher Naia is a half human and a half wolf. She's the one teaching the pups in this school. It couldn't be denied that she's indeed pretty, her mustard dress complimented her sun kissed skin. It was obvious that Teacher Naia is attracted to Alpha Karius. From the way she laughed and blush, Lilian couldn't help but to arch her brow a bit as she looked at them.
Meanwhile, Alpha Karius doesn't seem to mind Teacher Naia's advances towards him as he was just staring at Lilian the whole time as she lectures the wolf some things that she's also teaching back in the midnight pack. His lips would curl into a small smile when he noticed how attentive the pups are while she's talking in front. There's no doubt that Lilian loves kids so much.
"Luna! Luna!" A kid suddenly raised his hand making Lilian stop talking while reading a fable.
"Yes?" Lilian asked with a friendly smile still plastered on her lips.
"You're already mated to Alpha Karius, right?" The kid asked as he pouted a bit, like he's so sad on the news.
"Uh... yeah. Why?" Well, not yet fully mated since she didn't give her mark to him but it would be hard to explain it to the kids in a simple way.
"Too bad. You're my crush!" The kid blurted out while blushing so hard, making Lilian giggled.
"No, Simon! She's my crush! I want to be her boyfriend when I grow up! Alpha Karius! When will you break up with your Luna?" Another kid suddenly shouted as he stood up as he shamelessly looked at Alpha Karius at the back, making the attention of Teacher Naia also look in her direction. The kid was Axel, the same kid that came to Alpha Karius earlier.
Everyone laughed at Axel but he was just pouting. Lilian couldn't help but to also laugh. Kids are indeed a breath of fresh air for her.
Alpha Karius at the back sighed heavily but there's a small smirk on his lips as he goes in front, not minding Teacher Naia who's gawking at him. His both hands are placed inside his pocket as he throws a glance at the kids.
"Axel, I already told you that I won't allow that," he told the pouting kind. He then went to Lilian's direction and she gasped on the next thing that he did. He pulled her on the waist making the kids cheered at their 'sweetness' before planting a kiss at the side of her head. Meanwhile, the other two kids who are claiming that Lilian is their crush were both frowning at Alpha Karius and Lilian.
"Yieeeeh! Our Alpha is so sweet!" one kid cheered.
Lilian doesn't know what to react but she could feel how her face heated as the kids looked at the both of them dreamily, like they also can't believe that their Alpha is acting sweet in front of them. Alpha Karius was just smirking, it was obvious that he's enjoying the attention that the kids are giving to them. Lilian cleared her throat to conceal the sudden feeling that she felt at the pit of her stomach. She knew that feeling... the feeling where there's a butterfly inside her grumbling and she wouldn't deny the fact that it was a nice feeling.
But her thoughts drifted to something. She shouldn't feel this way. She's here for her revenge... for Alpha Karius to get hurt and experience all his pain that she had felt before.
