Chapter 139: Inanna

Pollux.

I hadn’t bothered setting an alarm for classes, expecting I would get up early, just like I had done so many times before. The problem was though, today of all days ended up not being a day why I got up early. The moment the sun hit me in the face, I had opened my eyes and realized I only had forty minutes to get ready for class and make my way there.

Lucas could have been nice enough to tell me it was time to go, but as I passed his room in a rush, it was clear he had left long ago by the empty look to his room from the cracked door he had left open.

“Fucking asshole,” I muttered under my breath as I followed the route I was explained when I had first arrived. The letter had been vague, but I could see the peaks of the school from the window in my room.

Rushing through the gardens, I headed down the cobbled streets of the town, making my way towards the dark peaks of the school ahead. The entire argument from the previous night with Cassie and Odin rolled through my mind, but trying not to let it bother me, I pushed through until the large doors of the school came into view.

Did I know where these damn classes were? No.

But I was going to have to figure it out because I didn’t have another choice.

The moment I passed the threshold of the building, I came face to face with a dark-skinned boy with blue eyes and black curly clean cut hair. He leaned against the pillar just inside the entryway, a white t-shirt clinging to his muscles, and blue jeans tight around his legs. I wasn’t sure exactly who he was, but when his eyes met mine, he laughed.

“Pollux, right?” His voice was cool and collected tone. He glanced down at his watch and pushed off from the wall, walking towards me.

“Yeah… who are you?” I wasn’t trying to be rude, but honestly, I had no idea who this dude was and yet he knew my name, obviously. He must have been waiting for me.

Chuckling again, he rested his arms across his chest as he looked me up and down. “My name’s Bronn, Bronn Straton. I’m your tour guide for the first day, but I will admit we were supposed to have started forty-five minutes ago.”

“Yeah, I overslept,” I replied, rubbing the back of my neck in a sheepish way. “I take it class already started?”

“Yeah, you could say that.” He chuckled as he turned and gestured with his hand for me to follow him. “However, they will make exceptions because you’re new. Just don’t make it a habit.”

The way he said not to make it a habit had me rolling my eyes behind his back. I had just graduated high school and the last thing I wanted to do was go back to school again. I had no interest in going to college. I was supposed to be training to be the best Alpha my world had ever seen, and instead, I was dealing with more bullshit than I wanted.
