Zeke looked at the offerings set out for the buffet with disappointment. Though all of it was quality food, as was expected at this academy, considering the amount of money most of them had to pay to be here, none of it smelled as amazing as whatever had been prepared earlier.

“Have you changed your mind?” Derek asked as he loaded a plate full of food.

Sighing. he picked up a plate and put something on it without paying much attention to what it was. He seemed to have lost his appetite without the delicious offering he had been looking forward jo.

When he picked up a bottle of water as well, he looked over at his usual table and saw Myles already sitting there with a group of girls–Claire’s group of friends. The three girls went everywhere together and always forced their company on them, as if Claire was trying to pair up her friends with his, too. They turned up at every single place they went–like magic. The girls never ate in the cafeteria, so he could only guess that somebody had told them they were there.

With another sigh, he walked over to his table, nodding at some of his counterparts along the way. This school taught them how to be diplomatic and maintain relationships, and he thought he did that quite well. It didn’t matter that some of them rubbed him the wrong way or that he sensed a lot of fear in them: it was his job to maintain the peace.

Maybe it was time he thought about ending this relationship. Even before his father arranged his mate, he had always. known he and Claire wouldn’t go beyond a few tumbles in the sheets during the semesters. But Claire had become so comfortable with him that she constantly used these pet names. His father would lose his shit if he ever heard her call him

that.

“Is that all you’re having?” Myles asked, nodding at his plate.

“Turns out I’m not hungry after all, he answered.

He could sense Claire’s feelings. She hadn’t liked being ignored, but he was pretty sure it was something he did regularly. Why she still stuck around was beyond him. No, actually, it wasn’t. She wanted the honour of being called the next Luna of the Blood Moon Pack, even though he had never put that offer on the table.

She was all chest and but, and she was strong enough, as proved by how well she did in their combat classes. Those had been, and still were, the only reasons he had picked her in the first place. But
