Chapter 30: Dirty Piece Of Trash

Riley’s POV

I narrowed my eyes at him.

“Is this a joke? Because if it is, I gotta say–it’s not that funny.”

Silas burst out laughing. “Oh, trust me. I never joke about winning a competition. In fact, here’s the proof.”

He handed me a slip of paper. I took it cautiously and skimmed through.

It was… a transfer approval?

It said that Silas had officially dropped out of his previous team and applied to join ours. And Mrs. Bright had already signed off on it.

“I thought once the teams were locked in, no one could switch,” I said, frowning.

“That’s true-for most people. But sometimes, rules don’t apply to certain people. Especially when that person’s dad is on the school board,” he added with a smug smile.

I rolled my eyes internally.

Of course. Another privileged rich brat. Why was my life constantly filled with this kind of people?

“So… what do you say? Am I in or not?” He shrugged, hands in his pockets. “As you can see, I already dropped out of my old team. If you say no, well… that’d be kinda awkward for me.”

“Maybe you should’ve thought about that before making such an impulsive decision,” I said dryly.

“I don’t need a backup plan. I need a win. And this time, my bet is on you.” His gaze burned into me. “A healer who beat a warrior? I just know I have to team up with you.”

Now, most girls would probably get flustered being stared at by a guy that good-looking. But not me. Lately, my life’s been full of hot guys with weird personalities.

“You can stop flattering me. I don’t get to decide. My teammates do.” I glanced over his shoulder. “And speak of which… here they come.”

Odin and Olivia had just appeared at the top of the stairs.

Odin instantly tensed up when he saw Silas. And Olivia’s eyes went wide, her cheeks turned suspiciously red.

“Riley, get behind me!” Odin rushed over and growled at Silas. “What the hell do you want? The fight was over, we’ve already settled the score!”

Silas just gave a small snort. I answered for him, “Relax, Odin. He’s not here to cause trouble. Believe it or not, he wants to join our team.’

Olivia let out a small squeal and slapped her hands over her mouth.

I shot her a look.

Why didn’t I notice her blushing at Silas yesterday?

“He wants to join our team? Are you serious?” Odin looked shocked. “But… you had the best options. At the very least, you should be on an all-Lycan team.’

“I don’t buy into that ‘Lycans are superior’ crap. Riley already proved that’s nonsense.” Silas shrugged. “So give yourself some credit, man. I really think we can build a strong team together.”

The three of us exchanged glances, and I said, “Maybe it’s time for an internal team meeting.”

Silas gestured with a smile. “Go ahead. I hope you don’t disappoint me with your final decision.”

I nodded at Olivia and Odin, and we slipped into a training room, closing the door behind us.

“Oh. My. God. That’s Silas Crowhurst!”

Olivia whisper-screamed the moment we were alone. Her cheeks were flushed like she had a fever. “He’s the second strongest warrior in school. And the second hottest-right behind our prince Ezra!”

“I think somebody has a crush,” I drawled.

She shot me a glare. “No, I do not, you idiot! I’m just… just saying, this feels like a dream. Silas Crowhurst interested in our lame team? That’s insane!”

“I don’t think we’re lame. Riley beat a warrior yesterday. That probably impressed him,” Odin said proudly.

Olivia rolled her eyes. “You think that’s why he wants to join? Please. Riley just got lucky. She’s not even that good. Silas knew that too.”

“Olivia!” Odin snapped, clearly pissed.

I didn’t care what Olivia thought. Whatever Silas’s reason was for joining us didn’t matter. What mattered was what we were gonna do about it.

“Okay, let’s stay focused. The question is—should we let him join?” I asked.

“You’re kidding, right? That’s even a question?” Olivia’s eyes went wide. “When the second-best warrior in school asks to join your team, you don’t refuse. You don’t even hesitate. You say yes!”

“And you say you don’t have a crush,” her brother snorted. “We should be careful. What if he’s trying to sabotage our chance of winning?”

“Honestly, Odin, we barely have a shot at winning. Silas might be our only chance.” Olivia insisted.

The two glared at each other, then turned to look at me.

“Riley, what do you think?” they asked in unison.

I tapped my chin, thinking.

Silas didn’t give me a bad vibe. Yesterday, he seemed like the only normal one on his team.

And let’s be realistic-just the three of us werewolves weren’t gonna last long in the Hunting Season. Especially not with the number of enemies we’d already made. We needed to buy ourselves an insurance.

After a long pause, I said, “I say we let him in for now. See how well he fits with us. If he boosts our chances of winning, then I’m willing to take the risk.”

Olivia squealed in excitement. Odin sighed. “You’re such a gambler, Riley. But fine. Let’s do it your way.”

I smiled at Olivia. “How about you go give Silas the good news?”

It was obvious she liked him. I figured giving them a chance to bond might help stabilize the team.

She squeaked again and dashed out.

A few minutes later, she came back with Silas, her face red as an apple.

“Thanks, Riley.” Silas looked straight at me, eyes gleaming with ambition. “You won’t regret this. That Hunting Season trophy is ours now.”

It may sound like bragging if it comes from other people. But with this guy? He might actually be telling the truth.

I nodded. “Then let’s go make it happen.”

Turns out, letting Silas join might’ve been the smartest thing I’ve ever done.

The guy was a tactical genius. Experienced, strong, and sharp as hell. We’d only trained together for one morning, and already our teamwork felt tighter, stronger.

Odin and Olivia were practically bouncing with excitement. For the first time, they actually felt like winning was possible.

We were still talking strategy as we walked into the cafeteria. And suddenly, someone came charging at me, hand raised high.

My body reacted before my brain did.

I grabbed her wrist and yanked it down hard. Then I saw it clearly—it was Layla.

“You WHORE!” she screamed, loud enough to turn every head in the cafe. “You fucking stole our captain!”

I let out a cold laugh. “I stole him? Or maybe he left because your team’s a piece of shit?”

Her face twisted in rage. She raised her other hand to slap me again. Yet only for me to shove her back again. By now, the entire cafeteria had gone silent. All eyes were locked on us, waiting for the drama to unfold. “Come on, Layla, don’t turn this into a goddamn circus,” Silas said with a frown. “I left by my own choice. I’m allowed to pick my own team, right?”

“If she hadn’t seduced you, you never would’ve left!” Layla’s voice trembled, her eyes filling with tears. Then she turned to glare at me, her face full of hate. “I just knew what kind of person she is. After all, her mother—”

“Oh great, here we go again. Bringing up my mom? When’s that gonna get old?” I said coolly.

She looked like she’d completely snapped. “NEVER! I’m sure your whore of a mother taught you how to steal other people’s men. Did she teach you how to wiggle your butt and work your filthy cunt?! Like mother, like daughter-you’re both filthy whores!”

My face went ice cold.

A few people in the cafeteria actually laughed and started clapping for her.

“Layla! That’s too much! Apologize to Riley right now!” Silas barked.

Layla turned to him, her eyes gleaming with tears. “No I won’t apologize for speaking the truth. What are you gonna do about it?”

Silas clenched his fists, ready to shout at her again. But before he did, another lazy, icy voice cut through the air-

“Keep spilling that shit and I’ll have you arrested.”

A new group of students walked into the café. They were all tall, intimidating Lycan warriors. Their radiated power.

presence

At the front was Ezra, with his school jacket draped over his shoulder. He strode up beside me, looking down at Layla freezingly.

“The woman you just insulted is my father’s wife. This kingdoin’s new queen. And you? You’re just a dirty piece of trash.”
