“He can’t feel our pain,” Val assured me. “We are too far. Just like he can’t mindlink us.” That was a relief to hear.
“So, what exactly happened to you?” The nurse asked, staring at me intently. “You said you came from combat and shifting?” I nodded, reliving the moment that Professor Xander attacked me and broke my arm.
“I'was combating and got injured.” “Wasn’t’ the professor there to stop | the situation before it escalated?” She asked, confused.
“He wasn’t around,” I told her. “He went to the bathroom.” It was a lie, but I wasn’t sure what else to say.
She looked at me with uncertainty for a moment before giving me a faint smile.
“Just get some rest. Once you are healed you can leave.” I nodded and watched as she went back to her desk to get some work done.

board shared the same office building; it was also where the campus courtroom was as well. This was where | we had the trial for Sarah last year before she was suspended for a month.
Mrs. Prescott’s office was on the top floor of the building and had a gorgeous view of the entire campus.
“Take a seat,” she said as soon as I | stepped into her office. “Is everything okay? Is it the election? It’s a couple of weeks away. Have you thought about your campaign?” “That’s actually not why I'm here,” I told her, meeting her eyes.
Her frown deepened.
“Okay. Then, what's going on?” She
asked, her voice soft and filled with understanding. She made me feel comfortable.
“It’s actually, Professor Xander...” I told her. “My shifting and combat professor. I really don’t like making complaints about faculty members. But while in class...” I paused for a moment to gather my thoughts.
“What happened, Lila?” She asked firmly, keeping her eyes on me.
I took a deep breath.
“He broke my arm. I just got back from the nurse. My wolf healed me. But we were combatting, and he was so rough he broke my arm.” She was quiet for a moment as she processed what I had just said.
“We take faculty abuse very seriously,”
she said, leaning back in her seat, “| understand that in a shifting academy, injuries like this can take place quite frequently. Thankfully, with the power of our wolves, we have the power to heal quickly. I see you are already making a recovery from the accident and—"” I nodded instantly.
“It wasn’t an accident. He was trying to hurt me,” I spoke with a little more force than I meant to. | “Were there witnesses to back up your claim?” “The entire class saw it,” I told her.
“He wouldn’t stop despite me asking him to and telling him he was hurting me.” She stared around my face for a
wy "'Y Yenwe moment longer before nodding.

“Thank you,” I said to her.
As I left the office, I thought about calling Enzo to tell him what had happened, but I really didn’t want to involve him in this. Knowing him, he would come to the school and kill Professor Xander.
I took a deep breath as I went outside; the cold fall air filled my lungs with its brisk sharpness and then I exhaled, calming my body after such a stressful morning, I only had a couple of classes today, one of which was art with Miss
Grace.
After art class, was Werewolf History.
Then, I had the rest of the afternoon off.
By the time it neared evening, I received a mindlink from the headmaster.
“Lila, would you mind seeing me in my office please.” The headmaster was able to mindlink all the students in the school, so it didn’t come as strange to me to hear her voice in my head.
