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.

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.
