Luna Aurora (Alpha Fenrir)

Chapter 212

High school was a gauntlet Elyra and Dain faced every day, their striking appearances and reserved natures making them constant targets of curiosity and ridicule.

Elyra's silver hair and golden eyes drew stares everywhere she went. Despite her attempts to blend in, she remained an outcast, her ethereal beauty and quiet demeanor setting her apart. She spent most of her time in the library or sketching under a tree in the courtyard, avoiding the jabs and whispers of her classmates.

Dain, on the other hand, didn't go unnoticed. His broad shoulders, sharp jawline, and smoldering orange eyes made him intimidating, but it was his temper that kept people at bay. Most students were too afraid to approach him, especially when they saw how fiercely protective he was of Elyra.

"Hey, Moon Girl," one of them sneered, blocking her path to the locker room. "Do those freaky eyes glow in the dark?"

Elyra clenched her fists, trying to step around them, but another boy moved to block her.

"Aw, don't be shy," another said. "We just wanna know if you're part alien or something. Or is it just bad genetics?"

The laughter stung, but Elyra kept her head down, willing herself not to react.
