Chapter 52
RYN
I arrived early at the Academy before any of my colleagues and with lots of time to spare, I did my warmups and then sat in a classroom to go over everything Theon told me about the simulation test.
“This test will be a little different friss the one you experienced last time, The difference is that the mutant is fixed and will be required to get from point A to point B without getting killed or hurt.”
Back then, I had raised my brows in question. “Getting killed?”
Theon nodded. “Killed in the simulation of cour as much as possible not to get killed.”

I went over more lessons in the back of my mind as people slowly began to trickle in. To my dismay, colleagues that usually ignored me when I arrived in class, now waved at me with smiles. I waved back, still weirded out by the whole act but nonetheless glad that I was finally fitting in.
Later on, Konan and his gang swaggered in and after greeting his fellow male colleagues, he threw a glare my way before choosing a seat right behind me.
“The Teacher’s Pet finally decides to be early.” Konan muttered and his friends sniggered. “What happened? Your lover can’t save you anymore?”
More snickers.
I felt my wolf stir for the first time since the Chelsea incident. My hands tightened around the edge of the book I was reading, but I decided Konan was the least of my worries, so I ignored him.
“Want my
advice? You should sit this test out, Ryn.” Konan whispered behind me, his voice much closer to my back. “We don’t want you having a pom pom meltdown like last time.”
A bunch of laughter sprung up behind me, making my face burn with embarrassment and anger but I closed my eyes, and took deep breaths to calm my nerves.
I bet I am being watched and provoked to anger so the slightest thing can be used against me. I wouldn’t be surprised if the new Director was around a corner waiting to pounce.
“Answer me, bitch!” Suddenly, I jerked forward as I felt something hit my chair from behind. The classroom got quiet as the other guys focused their attention on us. When I looked back, I discovered Konan had kicked my chair from behind. I raised my gaze to look into his angry glare and shook my head.
Then I shifted my chair back and grabbed my reading materials to leave.
“Where do you think you’re going?” Konan drew me by the scruff of my uniform, pulling me back roughly. Suddenly, I found myself surrounded. I looked past him to the glass demarcation but couldn’t find a single guard on patrol.
Why? They were there just minutes ago.
“What? Looking for help?” Konan smirked and I became convinced this attack was orchestrated.
“Yo, Konan. You need to stop. Leave her alone, man.” Someone said from the other group of guys. He had dirty blonde hair and kind brown eyes.
“You need to shut the fuck up and mind your business, Fred!” Konan reacted as he turned to him. “Isn’t your mother working as a secretary for my Dad? I can make her job disappear in seconds if you don’t back off!”

Chapter 52
The boy looked defeated but he stepped back.

“Anyone else?” Konan asked and the boys frowned and looked down at the floor. My heart began to hammer faster, I thought I was safe with the guards on patrol and the boys on my side but it seems Konan has some sort of influence or power over them.
Konan finally turned to me and shoved my shoulder. “Now where were we?”
“Ah, Ah, Ah, Not so fast, Teacher’s whore. Why don’t you just go home?” He asked, closing the distance between us. “You were never going to graduate anyway.”
“Who told you that?” Someone said and everyone turned to see Adam Blackwell standing at the entrance, looking powerful and mighty in his black on black uniform. He looked pissed as he assessed the situation between Konan and myself before venturing further into the room. Konan, who seconds earlier had a plastered sinister smile, now looked shaken and disturbed as he stepped out of Adam’s way.
With a simple nod, I gave Konan my best smile before walking out of the classroom. Once I was out of earshot, my smile faded and I raised my hand to see it trembling. I sighed as I leaned against the wall, touching my pendant. What would have happened if Adam hadn’t come in? Would I have been forced to fight back or take a beating?
Adam smiled as well. “Actually,” He scratched his head, “Me showing up wasn’t a coincidence.”
