Chapter 8 – Rumours
Thomas said goodbye to Sera as soon as Professor Euler, a blonde woman with brown eyes, arrived to apply the test.
Sera did not understand the reason for the change, but did not question and prepared for the test.
——-
Thomas hurried to talk to the principal and say that Sera was already taking the test.
The headmistress said that there were murmurs, he could read people’s lips briefly, saying things like “She’s crazy.” “Have you seen the newbie?” ” Where did this psycho come from?”
Therefore, Cassandra prevented her from taking the test in a common place.
Thomas’ thoughts were scattered until he ran into someone.
He put his hand on his head, avoiding a fall. And froze to see who it was and read his lips.
“Are you okay? Hurt yourself?” – was it Joshua
The white-haired man’s hand was stretched out before him, but Thomas refused.
“Thomas, please, just…” –
Thomas ignored and wanted to withdraw, but was held by Joshua.
“Just a minute, please.”
Thomas couldn’t bear to look at him. Not after the harsh words and humiliation he received from him.
But Thomas should be strong and not let Joshua see his tears. He didn’t deserve them.
He let go, giving Joshua a slight push and leaving. He would never allow the alpha to hurt him again.

Sera didn’t find the test difficult. She answered everything easily and even Euler was surprised.
“Hmm.” The teacher said, surprised. “I confess I’m surprised, Miss Abrams. Did you really study at home?”
Sera confirmed it in a gesture.
“Great. You’re in your final school year. Even at 18. Next year, you can choose your profession.”
Sera thanked and Euler indicated that she could go to detention after lunch and handed her the new class schedule.
After leaving the library, Sera began to hear what they were saying about her. There were giggles and whispers. However, she had a slightly sharper hearing than usual.
“Did you see that strange?” – Someone pointed to Sera. “The girl who never says anything, out of nowhere, began to scream. She is crazy, for sure.”
“How can a mute talk? It must be crazy.”
“She’s crazy, when they got to the place, there was nothing.”
Sera lowered her head by sneaking around the corners, reached her room.
Closing the door carefully, she sat on the bed, frightening, Kyria.
“Wow!” – She exclaimed scared. “I didn’t see you coming.”
Sera apologized for the fright and told him what he had heard.
Kyria immediately hugged her and said:
“I’m sorry, Sera. These rumors will pass. Don’t bother.”
With fear, they went to the cafeteria. Of course people pointed at her and started whispering again.
Sera ignored and sat down at a table with Kyria. In a few seconds, Thomas arrived and they continued to eat without caring about the whispers.
“Hey, idiots!” – It was Rie.
“What do you want, Rie?” – Kyria spoke, getting angry.
“I want to know if it’s true that the new student is really crazy.” – He said, approaching Sera and trying to use his alpha manipulation against her.
“Hey, Rie. What are you doing?” – It was Karim’s voice, and he seemed extremely angry.
Rie seemed to freeze. He couldn’t face Karim.
“No… nothing, Karim. I just asked her to explain.”
Karim looked at him angrily. And when no one was looking, he said to Sera in a whisper:
“I believe in you.”
However, the discussion did not last long. Because someone, with brown hair and frightened eyes, entered the cafeteria, opening the door in despair.
Kyria told Sera that that was Jacob Lite.
Jacob was disheveled; dark circles under his eyes as if he had not slept for days; his clothes were dirty, as if he had been in the woods for a long time.
Jacob fell to the ground, all eyes were on him now.
He looked at everyone and yelled:
“There’s an m-monster next to c-college. He took my girlfriend, Nancy. I tried to f-find her for days, didn’t succeed. A shadow-shaped monster. I swear, I’m not lying. I saw it.”
And suddenly, his gaze was toward the Sera. In a movement so fast that no one could notice, Jacob had already pushed her against the ground.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
“It’s her fault. She also saw and wasn’t kidnapped.” – She said, wanting to tighten her neck.
His grip was strong. Sera remembered that monster. And it pissed her off for a few seconds, her eyes turned yellow, and she tried to get him off her. But it was as if a supernatural force possessed him.
Some boys held him, but without success. Soon he broke loose and attacked Sera again with sharp claws. Her dress was torn in the front and a little in the back.
Some students turned into wolves, but they also didn’t stand a chance. A supernatural force seemed to hold them back.
Sera was finally saved by the teachers. Karim removed his jacket and placed it on her shoulders, and she was taken to the infirmary.
As Kyria and Thomas helped her walk, she wondered if she should leave. Maybe it was better for her and for everyone.
Dr. Ty asked that only Yelena stay to assist her.
Sera screamed throughout the procedure. Even with an anesthetic ointment, the wounds hurt and bled. From her neck, staining her scarf to her legs. And especially her back with her great secret.
Her scarf was removed and Sera did not try to question. They would see the scar, but she only wanted the pain to go away.
The women did not react to seeing their shame, they just kept working. It was not a time to go into shock.
However, someone had seen and been very angry. Karim did not believe that someone had done this to her, nor a boring as he would do something like that. He clenched his fists, hiding behind the wall and promising that the monster who had done this to Sera would pay.
Sera did not notice his presence, she just screamed until she blacked out, wondering if it would be better to leave.
