And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie)

Chapter 127

Chapter 127: Words of Wisdom

 

I couldn’t believe Pollux acted the way he did in front of everybody, making me look like a complete fool. Then to call me a whore! Who did he honestly think he was?

Rage bubbled through me as my blood boiled with anger over the entire situation. I wasn’t sure who my brother thought he was, speaking to me the way that he did but thankfully our father James had stepped in to stop the situation.

The moment Pollux grabbed me and forced me to stay to try and listen to him, I felt myself losing control and that was something I didn’t do often.

Walking into my English class, I spotted Melissa sitting in our usual spot, her eyes meeting mine slightly widened as the other students looked at me with curiosity. It wasn’t that I wanted people to fear me, but most people at this school did.

I simply just ignored it, because after I graduated I was out of this fucking place.

Moving towards the back of the classroom, I beelined straight for my seat. Melissa had a grin on her face spread ear to ear, and I could only imagine the questions she would end

up throwing my way. It wasn’t the first time she witnessed one of our dads pulling us off to the side to have a sit down, and I doubted it would be the last.

Plopping down at my desk, I pulled out my notebook and opened it to where we had left off with notes for the exam notes from the day before. Final exams were Friday, and then I would be free from this prison of a school with graduation the following week.

The one thing keeping me sane every single day I woke up was knowing I would be leaving this place soon, and Melissa and I would be starting over somewhere new.

“OK, class, now that our last participant finally decided to arrive, please go ahead and open your notebooks if you haven’t so I can go over everything that you’re going to need to study on for Friday’s exam,” Miss Abel said as she turned towards the board and began to write down various different things we were expected to take notes on.

She was an older woman, with graying brown hair and thick-framed glasses. She had been in the pack for as long as I can remember, and even though she was nice to everyone else, she, for some reason, couldn’t stand me.

“How did it go?” Melissa whispered, causing me to look at her from the corner of my eye. “Was it bad?”

“Just as you would have expected,” I replied with a sigh, trying to keep my tone down low so Miss Abel wouldn’t hear

us having a conversation while she was trying to teach class. That pissed her off more than anything.
