Trapped In His Embrace - A Werewolf Romance [ON HOLD] - Chapter 2

•Solana•

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

So? Where are you from?

I purse my lips.

Solana Ruiz [FL]

I... I'm from here...

I tuck a strand of my hair behind my hair as I fiddle with my blouse ends

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

Here?

Frowning, Jennifer shares a glance with Ezekial

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

That's not possible. We would have known you.

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

Who's your father

Solana Ruiz [FL]

I'm an orphan

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

Oh...

He says softly

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

I'm sorry.

Clearing his throat he offers.

I nod, not sure what to say

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

Which orphanage? If you have no parents, how did you get in here?

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

Jen *stops her*

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

Tsk. I'm just asking, what's the big deal?

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

Triglav school isn't easy to get in

She turns to me with a scowl

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

So new kid, how'd you get in?

Solana Ruiz [FL]

Scholarship

My eyes darts to the sides of me

Thank God everyone are busy with their own stuff

If this interrogation doesn't end soon, I will be toast!

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

You're the scholar?

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

So you're the one we're looking for?

Solana Ruiz [FL]

*frown* Looking for?

What on Earth-

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

Yeah, you're in the wrong class, new kid.

This time I frown.

Solana Ruiz [FL]

No. *shake head* This is the class I was told to join as first year.

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

*roll eyes* That's for others. You'll be joining our class.

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

*nods* We've heard a lot about you.

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

Yeah. The professors just wouldn't shut up about the scholar who scored 100 in their test

Solana Ruiz [FL]

Isn't your class a year a head from this class?

My question comes out hesitantly.

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

*raise a brow* You're eighteen?

Solana Ruiz [FL]

*nods*

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

Damn it! I can't believe I'm talking to a kid

Solana Ruiz [FL]

*glare* You're only nineteen!

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

*shrug* But we are older than you.

I stare at them, speechless

Solana Ruiz [FL]

I thought you guys were here to mess with me?

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

We are messing with you

Solana Ruiz [FL]

So I don't have to switch class?

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

Nope. You have to.

Huh?

What's going on?

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

We've been looking for you since morning.

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

We were waiting at the entrance

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

Uh-huh *nods* With a welcoming board too.

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

I can't believe you missed it

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

We put our hearts and souls in preparing it for the scholar

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

And looks like she just walked by us.

My head turns at each of them as tbey talk

My headache rising with the crap they utter

Solana Ruiz [FL]

You guys are messing with me

I say holding my temples

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

*snort* Absolutely. You think we would stand outside holding a f*cking welcoming board?

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

Who do you think you are? Obama?

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

We won't go out even for Obama, new kid. Can't believe you fell for it.

He looks at me in pity and I feel the urge to smash his face with something hard

Don't. That would cause too much attention

We are running away from it. Not pull it with us.

Standing, I straighten my clothes.

Solana Ruiz [FL]

Then, let's not waste time than we already have.

I smile tightly and wave my hand forward.

Solana Ruiz [FL]

After you

Jennifer flips her hair and walks forward as Ezekiel passes me with his smirk as if it was so fun talking with me.

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

What's up with the tree and why is it cold all of a sudden?

From my peripheral I see the tree branches moving frantically

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

It's probably the wind

I breathe out and calm myself and the tree stops moving

At least not as aggressive as it used too.

Please don't blow my cover, greeny. We have a long way to go

They lead to another class which is relatively quiet

I look around the place and spot an empty space at the end of the class.

Delighted, I step forward to get lost in my shadows when a hand hold me back with my collar

Solana Ruiz [FL]

What on-

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

Easy there, new kid

I pass a glare at him.

I know I said I'll be patient, but these kids are making it hard

Maybe I can cause a flood in his dorm room

Or a little tornado during his experiments

? ? ?

Who do we have here?

Another one?!

I close my eyes in resignation as a shadow falls over me

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

Hey, Gab

A boy with silver hair comes to my vision

He looks cold. His face devoid any emotion of what he feels

He nods at Ezekiel, but his eyes stays on me.

A wizard.

Gabriel Rodriguez [Novel Villain]

*tilt head* Hello, little one.

He pulls out his hand.

Gabriel Rodriguez [Novel Villain]

I'm Gabriel. The King of Witches and Wizards of the West.

This time, I gulp in fear.

What is the King doing here?

And why are all these names so familiar. This is a different kind of familiar I'm talking about.

I shake his hand in greeting

Solana Ruiz [FL]

King?

Gabriel Rodriguez [Novel Villain]

*raise a brow* You don't know?

Jennifer Fernendez [Novel FL]

I would've been surprised *checking het nails* She's a nerd who scores hundred in theory and practical, obvioudly she wouldn't know what is happening outside her little bubble

Gabriel Rodriguez [Novel Villain]

Make sense. So what are you?

Solana Ruiz [FL]

I'm sorry?

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

What he's asking is are you a werewolf? Vampire? *smirk* or maybe Gab'd kind? A witch

My breath hitches at their question

I'm sure they meant it innocently, or even playful

But every time I hide this particular information, I feel like my lifetime is cut short.

Solana Ruiz [FL]

Wait? Did you say Gabriel?

Gabriel Rodriguez [Novel Villain]

You want me to repeat myself?

He asks neutrally, but I can see he is not happy with my question

Solana Ruiz [FL]

Gabriel, as in Gabriel Rodriguez?

I ask and I can't believe, eighteen f*cking years, and fate still loves f*ck me over

Gabriel Rodriguez [Novel Villain]

Yes. Any more questions, little one?

Frozen by the revelation, my eyes jumps from Ezekial to Jennifer to Gabriel.

This isn't f*cking different world.

This is a f*cking novel!!

The hero, heroine and the villain!

Solana Ruiz [FL]

Oh My Goddess *whisper*

And me, the Villainess.

Fate must f*cking hate me

Ezekiel Ambrose [Novel ML]

What? Surprised to find all of us in one class?

No, surprised how my life is going to turn haywire!
