Chapter 4
I stared at Ryan. There was an amazement in his eyes as if he had just caught me red-handed.
He raised a brow. “What?”
I averted my gaze from him and looked around to see if anyone had heard him. Everyone was
looking at us while whispering to each other.
He was not loud enough to be heard. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.
I opened my eyes and looked up at him.
“Can you just move?”
“Why?”
“What do you want, Ryan?”
“Why didn’t you tell me about yourself when I asked you who you were?”
I rolled my eyes. “I didn’t find it important to tell you about myself. And we are not that close
anyway.”
He was silent. I glanced at him, thinking I might be a little bit rude.
But I was so wrong! He was smirking. I wanted to smack his smirk.
“Ryan, what are you doing with her?”
I heard a voice and looked behind him. It was Sophia. She was our pack’s Delta’s daughter.
Everyone knew about her identity, and that was why she roamed around our school like a queen.
Her first target was Ethan; however, he never gave a damn about her.
Ryan moved back from me and turned around.
“Nothing, Sweety. I thought I needed someone to show me around the school.”
“What? You should tell me that. Let’s go. I will show you around.” Sophia said happily. A few girls
looked interested too.
I felt sick looking at them. How could they like a boy like Ryan? Unless they were also up for a one
night stand like him.
Ryan turned to me.
“And you.”
I looked at him. I was afraid he would tell everyone about me.
“Nice to meet you, baby.” He snickered and winked at me.
I was dumbfounded. He turned around and walked to Sophia. He wrapped his hand around her
waist, and they headed to see around the whole school.
Everyone was still looking at me. I felt so angry that I could not explain it. I was fuming. He just gave
others a reason to pay attention to me, which I did not like from the start.
Teresa rushed to me. “Is everything okay?” She asked with a worried face.
“What would happen?”
“I saw Ethan and Julie. Then I saw Ryan and Sophia coming out from this side. Now everyone is
staring at you.”
“Nothing happened. Ryan was annoying me.”
“He what? Why?”
I shook my head and opened my locker again.
“What are you all looking at?”
I heard Teresa yelling at others. Everyone looked away from me.
Teresa had an aura to shut anyone down, I must say. She was a beta female.
She also took out her books, and we went to our classes.
When it was the last class, it was a combined class with all-year students.
Schedule-wise, Teresa was not in the class with me today.
I was not friendly with others, so every time, I had to attend the class alone.
However, Ethan was also in this class. I looked around and saw there were two empty seats at the
back, beside the window. But then I saw who was sitting in front of those seats.
Ethan and Julie were sitting there.
I bit my lips nervously and walked ahead. I did not look at Ethan. The way he insulted me last night
was enough to make me avoid him, and he had a girlfriend again. So I should retain myself.
I sat on the seat behind Julie. I tried to avoid looking in front.
I looked outside from the window. The sky was clear today. It was a sunny day. Sunlight fell on my
bench from the window.
“Mr. Iversen, you are late.”
I heard Professor William’s voice. I turned my head and saw Ryan standing at the door.
“Well, I was busy roami- I mean looking around, Professor.” He replied carelessly.
Professor William was tough. He did not even treat Ethan like a king, so Ryan was not special to
him either.
“It’s your first class, so I’m letting it go. Next time, don’t be late. Otherwi-”
“Otherwise, give me detention or cut my marks. It’s okay, Professor. Take it easy.”
The way Ryan interrupted Mr. William, it made others shock.
Ryan looked around, and his eyes met mine. His infamous smirk came back to his face.
“Look how hot he is!”
I heard some girls. How could they whisper so loudly!!
I tried to hide my face with my hands from Ryan immediately.
Ethan turned his head to me as if he saw who Ryan was looking at.
I did not look at Ethan. Why would I? Didn’t he say I was not his type?
“Stop hiding, baby. You are not even hiding properly. Come here. Let me hide you in my jacket.”
Everyone heard Ryan and laughed.
I moved my hands from my face and glared at Ryan, who was now standing beside me.
“ATTENTION, EVERYONE.”
Professor William shouted at everyone. I glanced at the other girls. They were glaring at me as if I
had committed a crime.
‘What? Do they think I am with him? He just came back yesterday. What’s wrong with them??’
“Focus, focus. Or do you want to go on a detention with me?” I heard Ryan again.
I closed my eyes and tightened my fists.
This boy was getting on my nerves.
Why was he even talking to me? We did not know each other that well.
Well, I sometimes went to the pack house with my mother when I was a kid. So I saw him for quite
some time. That was it. Or we played one or two times, maybe, not more than that.
I avoided him and tried to give my attention to the class.
“Please try to understand everything, and I will not repeat it again.” Professor William said this and
turned to the projector to show something.
However, my eyes were on Ethan. He did not look okay in his seat there. His face was gloomy. I did
not see Julie talk to him in the whole class.
Another thing I noticed was that these two brothers never talked to each other. There was a rumor
that they did not like each other. Why was that?
I somehow got lost in Ethan’s side profile. He was the only one for me. No matter who came in front
of me, I would choose him without any second thought. However, his face also reminded me of
what he said last night in the club.
Suddenly, I felt a breath in my right ear. I almost gasped loudly but prevented myself when I heard
Ryan.
“I see. You are in love with him.”
