pack.
“Your grace, it is truly a pleasure to have you back in our district. | heard the alpha state as the driver held his
hand out forto take. God | was shitting myself.
| shakily let my hand take hold of the driver and stood on my weak legs, they wobbled under my weight after
being sat for practically an entire day and naturally still getting used to walking again, i slowly climbed out of the
limo and was instantly engulfed in the overhead down pour. It didn’t take long for my body to be absolutely
soaked. | guess an umbrella forwas out of the question.

“Your
grace.” The alpha addressedand bowed his head slightly while underneath his own umbrella, in fact they all
had one sheltering them. My own head darted round trying to take in my old district. I did have to swallow down
my humiliation at sof the looks | was met with though.
| felt a hard punch on my arm at my lack of response to the alpha and so | quickly bowed my head to him, water

My teeth began to chatter slightly and cold swept through me, | was definitely going to get sick if | was going to
be stuck like this all day. “Shall we head to the high school?”
“Are you not going to at least give the girl a coat... she’s human she could get really ill.” The king glared at the
lunas words but turned his attention to
*Would you like my jacket, my queen?” No | would not, why would | wear anything to do with him, besides |
suppose I'm already soaked wet through.
“What's the point? I'm already soaked! Instantly a back hand to the face shutright up as my head shot to the
side and the familiar stinging sensation set in. My skin so used to being hit that it doesn’t even bruise any more
unless excessive force is used. I'm sure a large red mark was forming though from the initial impact.
“And you will remain that way.” With that he walked away with the alpha and Luna in tow, | sighed and tilted my
head up slightly giving myself a very Bleeting moment of peace as the rain poured down onto my features. In

me. | was shocked when it didn’t. The principal held his hand out in a handshake toand then addressed only
me.
“Queen Dylan, welcback.” | eyed his hand warily before taking it in a firm grip, we shook once while our
eyes met, his orbs swam with nothing but guilt before he turned back to his grace.
“Thank you, | apologise for cutting the celebrations short last time, however they will most definitely go as
planned. We will be staying for the duration of the fortnight.” The principal nodded along with the alpha of the
district, and then gestured us inside.
