Warrior 200
RYN
It’s graduation day.
Finally, my time with Lycantide High has come to an end.
I remembered the day I decided to apply to be an Elite, I wonder how rny life would have turned out if I didn’t take a risk or
if Theon hadn’t given me a chance. I smiled bitterly as his name brushed my mind like a lover’s caress
It has always been Theon from day one.
I guess I was right to trust in him when I noticed how his blue eyes were similar to my Dad’s. So what if he doesn’t feel romantically interested in me? Theon has been a good friend and I wouldn’t mind staying friends with him.
As long as he doesn’t move on with someone else.
Cause that would suck. Big time.
1 alighted from Sadie’s car and to my surprise, the press was there
They swarmed to me within minutes, jabbing microphones in my face while almost blinding me with their camera flashes. Luckily for me, behind us was a car that was brought in extra security, courtesy of Sadie’s Dad, and as soon as I was, swarmed, those men broke through and provided a safety shield round me and Sadie.
As we were ushered towards the school building, I heard the questions thrown at me.
“What do you have to say about the Billie video?”
“Is it true that you plan to abuse your power as an Elite?”
“Are you sleeping with the Princes to keep your position?”
“Is it true that you assaulted your best friend because you were jealous of her?” Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
Whit what?! I almost turned around but Sadie held my hand and kept me going.
As soon as we entered the building, I couldn’t help but notice how everyone stopped and stared.
Wasn’t I the same person who got their claps and cheers and smiles like weeks ago! And even yesterday?
Now, I was looked at with contempt, whispers and even fear. Some looked at me and shook their heads but I could still see one or two students waving happily to me and making the love emoji with their hands.
“Come on, let’s go.” Sadie said and soon we were back at the office Theon rented for me. The men stayed outside and the moment I stepped in, my stomach twisted in knots.
I didn’t think I’d be back here again.
It felt like I was reopening a wound- one that was festering rather than healing-
“Seems this is the only place we can get some privacy” Sadie said, slumping on the couch and holding her head in ber hands.
I looked at her, feeling bad that I dragged her into my drama. She was just a shy kid who wanted to spend the rest of her high school years undetected as royalty now because of me, everyone will know her real identity.

“Are you mad at me?” Tasked, still standing close to the entrance and not quite having the strength to go further in.
Sadie raised her head, her eyes wide in surprise.
“No.” She shook her head and rose to her feet. “I’m not.
“But you’re upset.”
“Yes. I am, but I am not mad at you.”
I stared at her, swallowing the urge to burst into tears. “You pinky promise?”
Sadie smiled wanly and approached me. Then she pulled me into an embrace. “I pinky promise.”
I held her close and kissed her head.
Shortly after, I found the strength to go into the room and sit on the sofa.
Memories of my time with Theon suddenly flashed through my mind, and I had to squeeze my eyes shut and take a deep breath to let them go.
“So have you heard from Uncle Theon?” Sadie asked, drawing me from my thoughts.
My brows furrowed. “Why do you call the princes ‘uncle‘ when they are your cousins?”
Sadie shrugged, smiling. “I have been referring to them that way since I was a kid because everybody else’s cousins were like age mates or the same height.”
She laughed. “My cousins were already bigger and taller than everybody else as kids and to me they looked like giants, so I started calling them Uncle instead, and it got stuck.”
A small smile crept to my face at the imagination of how big they’d have been to tower over other kids. Did they feel conscious about it? Or did they revel in it?
I’m guessing the latter.
