Obsession: the Lycan king's Human Mate

Chapter 4 - The River Boy.



Friday was spent by both of them arranging the house furniture and accessories. They both had done a pretty good job as they observed the room. Saturday and Sunday had gone by arranging her room and closet. Monday came by pretty quickly and so did her first day of 11th grade which had begun two weeks ago. After showering, she went into her closet choosing the simplest yet classic clothes; black tank top with dark blue ripped jeans. Joining her father for breakfast, they had cereal with fruits.

"Kiddo, you want me to drop you?" he asked shoving a spoonful of cereal in his mouth.

​​

"It's a few blocks away. I'll take the bus." She was yet to familiarise herself with the place as well.

He shook his head, "It's the first day and you might get lost, so I'll be dropping you, you can walk or take the bus back." Getting up, he went to put his dishes in the sink, grabbed his keys and went outside. Adeline got up too, collected her bag and locked the door and went outside. Climbing in the range Rover her father drove off.

He stooped in front of the school, "Okay kiddo, now you're your own." He declared in a soldier face and gave her a salute.

she huffed, "You make it sound like I'm going into a war zone, old man," Adeline replied to him.

Laughing Jason told her off, "isn't it? Running after boys, latest fashion, grades you need to keep up with, blah and blah."

Adeline eyed the man sideways and muttered: "You know nothing, papa snow." Jason barked out a laugh.

Shutting the car door she watched her father give her a flying kiss and waited till she went inside. Entering inside the school, she saw the office on her right side. Pushing the door open she went into the desk and asked the man sitting there for her schedule. She noticed how the man's eyes went wide and she was handed her time table and the locker combination almost immediately.

All this while she had felt eyes on her back causing goosebumps on her skin. She turned around numerous times to look who it was but it was all in vain. Everyone was talking within themselves.

She was even in fact taken to class. Fortunately, the class started at 8:30 am and currently, it was 8:10. She had twenty minutes to pass. She was in two advanced classes and one of them was the one she was attending now.

"Hey," a girl came to her. "You are new right?"

Adeline immediately answered, "Yes, hi I am Adeline."

"Adeline, hello. I am in London. Come with me, let's go and stand out with everyone." She smiled and being new she immediately agreed.

Standing against a locker she looked around at everyone.

"That is the math group." London pointed at a few guys and girls. "They always win and I am shocked how they can stay calm with a complicated math problem staring at them."

"True," she muttered with a shudder. Maths was not a friend. Looking her eyes around, her sight landed on a few boys and one of them made her breaths laboured. He was amazingly handsome. The high cheekbones, the damm jawline and the lips and he was staring at her.

'The hell, when did I get so horny?' She shook her head.

"Stop fangirling." London's stoic voice has her a jump.

"What?" Adeline whispered, shocked at her tone.

"They are the resident bad boys of the town. But trust me, they are not normal. They come with bruises and have a shitty attitude but they are not going to associate themselves with you." she hissed. "God, you are like them all!" She said as she ran away after throwing her a look of disgust.

Adeline looked at her retreating form. She was weird but Adeline would not be an idiot to associate herself with someone like that. So, she walked back to class and sat in her seat.

Suddenly the room felt cold and she felt eyes on her again. Shivering, she let it go and took the seat beside the window, the second last seat because everytime she looked back, there was no one.

"Hey," she heard someone. Turning around a boy she saw a boy sitting in the seat behind her, he was the guy from the pizza place and the one bad boys of the town, who looked more handsome up close, yet she tried to be cool. "You're new, right?" He tilted his head making a swoon a little.

"Y—yes," she stuttered a bit but cleared her throat. She was not going to sound stupid. "Yes, I am." She replied a bit more confidently.

"I'm Xavier Rivera." He said. "You?"

"Adeline woods," She smiled and held out her hand. "Nice to meet you."

"Likewise, my lady." He shook her hand. Her hand seemed to be swallowed by his large, warm one. It was so soft to touch.

She shook out of her creepy, one-sided love thoughts and took her hand back. He let her hand go when she pulled it which meant something, right? Or maybe not. She was just being stupid. Ugh, love was so tough.

The class had started and the teacher had introduced her to the class. Instead of calling her forward, he had simply pointed her out so that everybody knew her by face.

Adeline had two classes that were ahead of her current grade. English and Latin. She was attending it in the senior year.

"Psst,"

Adeline frowned at the indiscipline. They were at school and in class, why would someone keep posting? That was so rude.

She continued paying attention to the front when she felt a pencil stab her in the back. Now that was disturbing!

She turned back and glared at the River Boy. Turning to the front, she leaned forward so that he won't be able to touch her anymore.

Xavier couldn't help but sigh. Her glare was so cute. 'Can I mate her here?' He thought blissfully. Life was so good now that he had found her. His mate.

"Okay, class," the teacher clapped his hands. "I need someone to get the assignment papers from the computer lab. I think they have been printed by now. Any volunteers?"

Adeline didn't raise her hand. She had no idea where the cafeteria was, let alone the labs.

"I can!" The boy behind her volunteered. She shook her head at how handsome he looked but was equally disturbing. "And I can take the new girl with me!" He offered.

She looked at him with her mouth open and eyes wide.
