Chapter 101: 101-The Man With No Wolf

Helanie:

"And everyone who is an Omega shall get a yellow star on their red bands," Emmet stated as he pulled out a bag full of bands. The red plain ribbons were for alphas, the brown for royal warriors, green stars on the red ribbon were for royal beta, black for other important posts in a pack and silver was for the alpha king status but only alphas in senior posts can get it after they have proven themselves to be able to fight for the alpha king status. Today’s lecture was just as good as always. However, I was slightly distracted, and I bet Emmet noticed it too.

He kept raising his head and pausing every time he saw me zoning out. I felt bad because I wanted to be a good student.

He gave a nod to the first person sitting in the front row, and she stood up to walk over to him, holding out her hand for him to tie the wristband.

"Professor Emmet! If you’re okay with it, I can help with the students in this row," Sydney, ever the self-proclaimed master of the room, stood up to offer her assistance. I had noticed this before—her relentless efforts to become the class monitor. Salem was quick to nod her head in agreement. The twins were always busy supporting each other.

Emmet shook his head and pointed at her with his finger, silently instructing her to sit down.

"Helanie!" Hearing him say my name made me straighten my spine and look his way. Everyone turned to follow his gaze, curious to see who ’Helanie’ was.

I had been doing my best to stay low-key for a while now. It’s been a week since I found out about my pregnancy, and I still hadn’t processed the news. I didn’t even know what to do.

Gavin and Lucy were a mess themselves—they would argue and then take long, tense walks. Jenny had been busy trying to befriend me, but Lucy always dragged me away from her. I didn’t protest because I didn’t want to make Lucy uncomfortable. Although, I was grateful for the help Jenny was offering me.

"Helanie!" Emmet called me again, snapping me out of my thoughts. "Please help with this row."

He gently pushed some of the bands to the side on the podium for me to grab. I was shocked he asked me, especially since Sydney had already offered to help.

I got up while Sydney and a few others glared at me harshly. Reaching the podium, I grabbed the bands and moved toward the right side of the classroom—the side where my friends and I usually sat.

I began wrapping the bands around everyone’s wrists. Each band had a name written on the back. Then I reached Penn. I hadn’t interacted much with him before, but I’d heard from Gavin that Penn preferred to keep to himself.

"Alpha!" I said as I checked his band. He nodded, shook his leg slightly, and then rolled up his sleeves, extending his hand toward me.

I tied the band around his wrist, and as I did so, my fingertips brushed casually against his skin. I swear, I saw goosebumps appear on his arm.

It was odd.

"It’s alright, I’ll fix it myself," he said abruptly, pulling his hand back and adjusting the band on his own.

After I finished handing out bands to everyone, I returned to my seat, completely forgetting about my own band.

"If everyone has received their bands, you’re free for the day," Emmet announced.

Due to the heavy rain and storms over the past few days, they hadn’t been able to distribute the bands earlier. Many students were falling sick, and some of the wolves seemed to be affected in strange ways.

"And Helanie, come here for your band," Emmet said, resting his elbows on the podium, tilting his head, and narrowing his eyes at me. _{freewebnovel.cσ๓}
