The crowd gasped in shock, rushing to her side, talking over each other about taking her to the
hospital. Mariana, however, kept glaring atwith such raw hatred that even the ones holding her
shivered under it.
“Aubrey Aubrey!!”
She practically ground my nout through her teeth.
Her expression was enough to unsettle the onlookers, making them doubt whether she had been
sincere in her supposed apology just moments before.
As for me? | turned and walked away, my face wearing an easy, almost relieved smile. | didn’t care
what anyone thought of me. As long as Mariana was miserable, | was content. Opinions don’t feed

That was when | saw Tammy-the girl who had approachedbefore, wanting to be my friend.
My smile faltered for a second before | started to move again, only for her to grab my arm.
“What? Here to lecture me? Think I'm cruel?” | arched a brow.
“N-no... I'm not—" Under the weight of my presence, Tammy's cheeks flushed bright red, her words tripping over
themselves. But her eyes still shone, almost reverent.
That look maderein in the sharpness I'd let slip earlier.
“Slow down. What do you want to say?”
Honestly, | was already prepared to be scolded. After what I'd just done, it wouldn't be long before the school
calledin for a talk.
But instead, Tammy suddenly blurted out, “You're amazing!”
“Hm?” | was momentarily thrown.
“You're amazing! You actually made her spit blood!” Tammy's voice brimmed with satisfaction.
| know Mariana’s not a good person. She tried to use wolf poison on you before, didn’t she? People like her
deserve punishment! And instead of admitting fault, she staged a public apology here to force you into forgiving
her. But you-“Tammy grinned, her voice ringing with pride, “-you didn’t let them morally blackmail you. That was
perfect!”
For once, | found myself at a loss, my expression stiff, unsure how to reply.
Tammy, however, only leaned in closer, speaking with careful determination. “Are you worried? Don’t be! We're
friends now. I'll help you. You don’t know this, but my brother's loaded. If Mariana dares to mess with you again,
I'll back you up!”
Her fresh enthusiasm grew bolder with every word until she finally slipped her arm through mine.

Given her height, the way she clung to my arm madefeel oddly like the man in the situation, which was
unfamiliar and a little awkward. But... | didn’t push her away.
She was just so genuine, so warm, looking atwith nothing but admiration in her eyes...
It leftslightly dazed. Was it possible that a beta werewolf really did want to be my friend?
What I didn’t realize was that plenty of others had been stunned by my display earlier. All
afternoon, the werewolves at school were talking about it, and everywhere | went, | caught
snatches of my name.
By the tclasses ended, | still wasn’t used to the attention. And as for Tammy... well, she was a
bit loud for my taste.
She also had a habit of staring straight at my face when talking to me, and she’d askstrange
questions like-
“Aubrey, is there anyone who can talk to you without getting distracted?”
“You're too beautiful. When I look at you, I just want to keep staring at your face, and I can’t think
of a single thing to say.”
Her blunt praise, for once, actually madea little embarrassed.
“Hey, Aubrey, cto my place tonight! I really like you-will you cover for dinner?” she asked
as we reached the school gates, still holding my hand and looking atwith pure, eager
anticipation.
