Chapter 35 RYN

1 smiled to myself as I bent forward to touch my toes while doing the split

For the first time in days, everything was going smoothly. Life in school was great, and I was now done with all papers, thanks to Prince Theon, who made school management give me my own time to write.

At first I was afraid that I would do poorly, but to my suprise all the questions were easy and I breezed through them before the time was up. Now that I thought about it, did Prince Theon have something to do with how easy my paper was? He better have not because I swear to the gods, I'd kick his ass!

Speaking of Prince Theon, I barely saw him around. In fact, the last time I saw him was the day he brought flowers for me at the hospital. It's been nine days since then and everyday I'd find a way to subtly ask Sadie if he was back from his trip. Does this mean I miss him? I shook my head. No, I don't. I'm just concerned for his well-being like a normal human being.

There's nothing wrong with that. Right?

I sighed as I stretched some more.

The door to the main entrance of the center opened and my eyes snapped to it, but I got disappointed when I saw it was some random guy with curly blonde hair dressed in black like a soldier.

Over the past few days, the walls of every training room had been broken down and replaced with glass and I knew it was because of what Coach Dutton did to me when he forced me to take the simulation. Now everywhere was open, and nothing anyone did was hidden The random guy didn't look much older than me but I noticed he was very handsome and had kind blue eyes like Prince Theon. Our eyes met through the glass and then he gave me the most heart-warming smile I had ever seen before walking away.

I found myself smiling too and immediately frowned.

Why was I smiling like that?

I let out a forceful breath before laying on my back. Someone else passed by but it was just a patrol guy. More guards were on patrol these days and had been tasked with preventing bullying from occurring as well.

The Princes really went all out to secure my stay here but what made me the most happy was when they unveiled the girl's locker room. It was everything I dreamed of with state of the art utilities. When some of the boys peeped in, they grumbled about how the girls' locke I found myself smiling.

Is this what it means to be Prince Theon's project? Cause I love it here and as long as I don't fall in love with him, i think I'll

be fine.

Shortly after, the door to the training room opened and in came Prince Miro and the blonde guy I had seen earlier. Immediately, we all scrambled to our feet and stood at attention,

"Gentlemen. Lady. I'm here to introduce your interim coach, Adam Blackwell."

Some guys began to howl and cheer and it was obvious most of the guys knew him from somewhere.

"Hey! Quiet!" Miro boomed and everyone settled into silence. "As I was saying. Adam is captain on the Elite Force Team and

has volunteered to coach you guys until we can find a permanent person. So treat him with the same respect you'd accord me or you will face grave consequences." Prince Miro said and stepped back for Adam to speak. "Warriors, it's an honor to be your coach for the time being" He said and I was immediately mesmerized by his voice. It was deep and boyish at the same time and jeez! What did he say?

"Ill do my best to prepare you for what's coming ahead especially this new week. Something really cool is about to happen but I am not allowed to say what it is yet. But be on your toes, if you need any help, feel free to reach out to me. In the meantime, I'd like to know you

We immediately obeyed and due to excitement, I let the guys lineup and went to stay at their backs. I watched other say their names and shake his hand so when it was my turn, I pushed back my shoulders, and shook his hand firmly.

"Ryn Ashmore." I said seriously but on the inside, I almost melted at his touch.

"Ahhh. The first female Elite ever. It's an honor."

And that's it. I smiled, revealing all my teeth, which in turn made him smile.

"My pleasure." I beamed and then I felt the heat of someone's stare on me. A flicker to the left showed Prince Miro glaring at me with a raised brow. My smile faded and I quickly retracted my hand. "Nice to meet you once again." I nodded and walked away

My heart was a beating mess and even when I went to grab my things and sit in a corner. I still found Miro's eyes flickering to me as he had a discussion with Adam. I seriously hope he's not threatening the poor guy.

Light Now I know why he's not Sadie's favourite.

Shortly after, he left and Adam once again faced us. I tried to check his demeanor to see if he looks offended or not but he seemed alright.

"Alright, listen up." He said, drawing our attention. Someone said something that made him smile and I realized he had dimples. His eyes cut to me and I immediately looked again.

Shit! I hope he doesn't think I like him or something. I glanced his way and found him speaking to someone else so I breathed a sigh of relief. Okay, so no more glances at the new boy. Focus! Otherwise, Prince Miro will have my head.

"Alright, once again listen up. Adam said. "This week, we will be learning about mutants, their history, how to spot to them and most importantly how to fight them."

I frowned and raised my hand. Adam saw me immediately. "Yes, Miss Ashmore."

"You said, how to spot them? I mean aren't they easy to spot?"

"Yes and No. If they are in their beast form, yes, but mutants can transform back to their human form and look just like anyone else."

"Oh. I definitely didn't know that."
