This morning, Grace and I were late for school because we had bad luck. Isobel casually laughed at me who changed clothes in front of him. We already had no shame in each other. Fortunately I had finished wearing a sweater when christian jumped into my room.
"hello's pretty", he teases me.I just rolled my eyeballs off guard.he's amused to see me looking panicked.
christian helped me put the book in the bag, then gave it to me, his face turned sad" sorry baby, today I can't be with you",
"its okay", I gulped down the orange juice Christian brought me. ah it was so fresh.christian stole the chance to kiss my cheek. I don't have time to scold him now.
Bee was back, so I drove it on my own when I left for school.I was left behind by one hour of school, so I hid in the cafeteria for a while. Did grace already enter class? I didn't see her at home or in the school yard. I was restless because I felt like a wayward student who skipped killer. yups, the first lesson hour was math.
I was hungry because I didn't have time to eat breakfast, so I went to the pantry and took the breakfast menu there.When I was about to pick up an apple, a dark burly hand grabbed my apple. I pulled out his hand and grabbed the apple that was left on that one.
"wow, quite well" exclaimed the man beside me.
I looked at him from the feet to the head. his body bongsor once. I had time to gawk for a while, then put on a fierce face.
" disrespectful!". I grumbled, then went to an empty table near the pantry.
cafeteria deserted, I think diligently students here ga?, whereas in new york first, is a common sight if there are students gathered in the lesson takes place.
the bongsor followed me and sat across from me.
"i've been waiting for you since morning, but apparently you've been bad luck",
I looked at him in disbelief, "what are you waiting for me for?"
"well, introduce my name's noa brown",
" noah?"
"noa, without h"
"without h?" I feel strange hearing his name.
"yes, we are descended from the Samoan-american tribe, Noa means "just" in samoan, while noah you mean rest".
"ooo, it deserves your skin to be dark" I said with a little skepticism, because he wasn't that dark.
" actually, my mother was English, so you could say I'm of samoan-American-English descent".
I chuckled, she said it with a strange face, as if her origin made her uncomfortable.
"why are you waiting for me?" I'm just impatient.
"don't you know who I really am?" noa investigated. I thought hard and did not get enlightenment.
"i'm your werewolf friend", noa whispered while leaning towards me.
Again I was stunned, stupid once I ignored the strange feeling in my skin since earlier. The smell is also strange. like the smell of animal shampoo. Grace has a dog so I know the smell of dog shampoo it.
" what do you think?, usually vampires will comment when near us", noa was a little offended given the comment.
"emm what comment?" and I already know the answer.
"that we stink "
I laughed cynically, "i'm half a vampire, not pure so my smell isn't that sharp". I put my shoulder on a whim, I don't want noa offended.
" i think you're just like that costel family",
"do you not like them?"
"not to dislike, just uncomfortable. Their smell is like the smell of incense that stings the nose, I sneeze when close to them".
" it should be those who have an allergic reaction to you" I laughed, how could it be reversed?
noa thaws, she scares while scowling.
" are you here alone?" manya curious.
"no, last year some of my friends were already part of us, there were even two women",
" what?" I'm half squealing, it's spooky if there's a she-wolf.
"remember, they are all friends.we have no personal grudges with the vampires, precisely what we fear is a threat from outside America".
" you're right", my face became serious. "how much do you know"
"not much, we failed to catch that medusa vampire".
" dysis?", I asked
"yes, whatever the name is",
" why do you call it medusa?"
"she likes to stick out her tongue like a snake, her gestures like a rattlesnake, and she's a woman. "
"why are you smiling?"
"the color I also call it medusa",
noa chuckled, and the lesson clock bell rang.
" what class are you in?" ask noa while walking after me.
"spanish class," I sped up the pace, if anyone saw me with noa, there would be new gossip.tap late, they've gasped at me.
"we're the same," Noa walked parallel to me,
of course my friends glared in disbelief, olivia and bill threatening me if I didn't tell the story, fortunately there was no megan and grace.
Noa sat with me in the back seat.Everyone in the class stared strangely at us. Even mrs rodriguez kept stealing glances.
I try to be ordinary. I don't know what they think about me. close to the costel family is quite horrendous north pole. What's wrong with noa?.
luckily my next class and noa split up, but I instead met a very friendly and kind-hearted female werewolf and they were brothers.
" hello, I'm kenese, and this is my brother luni ".
I nervously accepted their hand.
with a grinning smile I introduced myself "arabella"
"your name is as pretty as your face", kenese praised me, I almost stumbled upon the classroom door .
Luni seems to be more quiet than her sister, Kenese tells a lot of stories during the hours of chemistry lessons, because mr. Jones is not present.
"our color has no brothers, so the inheritance must be us who carry it on", implied sadness in the eyes of kenese and luni.
" where do you live?, are you connected to the herd in Jasper national park?" I remember the old man spirit warrior back then.
"no", luni answered flatly "they are different groups, they can turn into what they want, depending on which ancestor they have a blood deal with".
"blood deal?" manya curious.
"yes, spirit warriors do not just choose the form of their animals. Usually their ancestors have blood agreements with certain animals, then they can call the form of the animal".
" oh, so you guys have nothing to do with them?"
"we are actually from a Samoan tribe, only that they come from an indigenous tribe that lives outside of the Americas, whereas we are called American samoans, only our paths are different".
I absorbed this information happily, it turns out that the she-wolf is not too creepy. I am a little relieved, if I have to cooperate with them, I do not mind.
"you can play to our settlement" kenese offered with a carefree face.
I smiled happily "if I had the chance, I would visit there".
Luni increasingly showed her hospitality after an hour of chatting.she also told me that there were about a dozen herds present in this school.I was surprised to hear the numbers. Luni also explained that because it was time for them to change, they would usually change at the age of 16-17 years, and just like me. when they can transform, they can also live forever as long as they hold the promise of being guard wolves.
"we had a meeting about a slippery vampire attack the other day" Kenese switched our conversation.
I moved closer in curiosity.
"so how?"
"we're not here to take care of you, but to guard our land" Kenese replied in an unkind tone, I felt relieved, calmly holding the hand of kenese.
" of course I don't need to be taken care of by you guys, I'm worried if you're hurt ".
" the she-wolf didn't participate in the ra war, we were just guarding around the perimeter of our territory".
"oh thanks god" I exclaimed happily.
kenese and luni laughed.
"you're such a lovely friend, you're in great danger and you're still thinking about the fate of others". Luni stroked my shoulder. I grinned.
"you could say it's a family matter, so if I could just solve it myself",
Luni shook her head firmly, "you can't be alone if you deal with Romanian vampires ra, they are cruel".
"i know", I replied lethargic.that's what I think about every day.how to solve problems without involving others.
" look, I know about your father.even my father knows alan very well, he's the key to your problem."
"but he's in romania"
"maybe it's not ra, something's not right. that's what the elders say. The surrogate vampire is not looking for our weaknesses, but is looking for someone's trace". Luni explained, I froze.
" and you're their bait" kenese added.
