CHAPTER 8

Onyx

I got up from the bed earlier than usual because I did not sleep for the entire night. Somehow, I feel bad for behaving rudely with that girl but she is clingy and I hate such people.

Why she acted like she knew me well, just like a wife. I never want a girl like her as my wife.

My head is blown away and the pain is excruciating to my entire face. Today is gonna be one of those terrible days.

I was not very hungry so I skipped my breakfast and headed to the college after informing my parents. There is an uneasiness lingering near my heart, I can't explain what kind of vibes are there but something is going to happen, better or worse, well the time will tell us.

As soon as I entered the college, I noticed Cooper and a bunch of ass groups of his friends staring deadly at me. I am in no mood to deal with them so i keep my head low and ignore them like plague.

Their gazes burned my back but I dare not to look around. I enter the class and a smile erupts in my face to see my friends.

“Hey!” I greet them.

“Hey!” They greet me in unison.

“What’s up?” Martha asked with a mischievous smile plastered on her face.

“What’s with the look?” I blurted it out.

“Oh! We thought you would be entering the class with your girlfriend.” Ben states and his words pinned me like an arrow.

“She is not my girlfriend.” I shrug and put my bag on the desk.

“Then why did she risk herself and beat the pulp out of the cooper?” Marth asks in disbelief.

“I don’t know!” i don’t want to answer, more i don’t want to talk about her.

Everything is so contrived. I exhaled deeply and ignored the rest of the words from her. Soon I notice Cooper and his gang walking inside the class but what made my blood boil is to see Fiarra hanging around him like she is him.

A low growl escaped from my lips and suddenly, everyone’s attention was on me. Did I just growled like an animal?

“What was that?” Ben started terrified.

I noticed Cooper getting hesitant too but it’s Fiarra who made him sit on the desk, just two rows in front of me. She has a purpose to throw this stunt, but why the hell do I care? I don’t even know her but then again, she told me her biggest secret. No one does that easily until they trust someone. Does she trust me?

What game are you playing, wolfie?

“And after the class, you and I are going on a date, I have a plan for us.” I heard them talking and I could feel my whole body heating up.

Why is it affecting me? Why am I feeling jealous?

“I think I just predicted everything way too soon, yesterday, she was hitting on that geek and now she is in the arms of the popular guys of the college.” One of the students behind me commented.

“No wonder why girls are greedy for fame and popularity. Another home in the college!” another one stated and I lost control over my temper.

Honestly, I don't even know how I got this strength but I stood up and threw the damn desk over them. Luckily, they dodge it on time.

“What’s wrong with you mikkelsen?” the crowd shouted at me.

I lashed at them with eyes burning in rage. They are focused on one person, Fiarra.

“You!!!!” I howled and attacked her but Martha held me back.

“Onyx, she is a girl!” She reminded me and I regained my consciousness.

I observed my surroundings and everyone seems to be halted and terrified from my act. Every eye spoke fear except ones, hers.

Marth dragged me out of the class before I lost my control and attempted something that I will regret later.

“What is wrong with you? You never acted like that before?” she yelled.

I stayed speechless because words in my tongue were lost somewhere.

“I am talking to you, Onyx.” she recalls me.

“I am sorry!”

“You violate the rules, soon the principal will call you.” she informed me.

“I will surrender before she will call me.”

At the principal's office.

“Onyx Mikkelsen! You are a brilliant student and your records are perfectly fine, so why did you do that?” Principal Louis asked me.

“I lost control. I am sorry for the damage, I am paying for that.” I apologize.

“What made you do that?” she asked again.

“I don’t know.” I lied, "I don't want to drag anyone into this matter.

“If you are not going to give a reason then I have to suspend you for a week. The rules are rules and I can't spare anyone because they were nice and perfect students. I hope you will get this, mikkelsen?”

“Yes, Principal Louis.” I admit.

“Good, see after a week. Report me first when you come back to college. You may leave now.” She glared at me like she will toast me and eat me later.

When I left the office, I saw Ben and Martha standing at the end of the hallway.

“Did she suspend you?” they asked and I nodded away.

“That’s bad but why the hell didn’t you utter a word about them?” Martha questions.

“I don’t need to. No one provoked me! It Was my fault entirely.”

“You just can’t take everything on yourself because you are not strong like them.” This time, it was Ben and his words did collide with my stone brain.

“Maybe you guys are right but I am not the kind of person who will bully anyone.” I smiled at them and we all left the college premises.

I was decomposed all the way to the home but I got furious to see Fiarra standing in my way. I calmed down myself and passed, ignoring her like she doesn’t exist to me.

“Onyx, I have to…” she hoped to initiate a conversation with me but Nah!

“Just save it!” I shouted at my highest.

“Please!” she begged.

“No! I am not a toy you can throw away when you were bored. You said we are mates and we meant to be for each other. Bullshit! You are any girl who wants money and fame. Though, you didn’t get it from me so you jumped on Cooper to be that kind of girl. Shame on you!” I blasted on her.

“You are getting all wrong…” she tried to explain something to me.

“I said, just save it. I don’t want to listen to you. For god’s sake. Leave me alone. Since the day you entered my life, you disturbed it to another level. Please, go back to your wolf realm or whatever you call it.” I stared deathly at her and she just kept her head low.

I was feeling bad to make her cry but she is stubborn to admit that she was wrong.

“Just go home.” I immediately slowed down my voice. My mother never raised a man who bullied anyone, especially a girl.

I turned my heels and left her standing in the middle of the road.
