Chapter 8

1502 Words
Eva’s P. O. V. I tied my hair up into a tight bun and did some stretching to loosen up my muscles, because you see, I am the next one to show my fighting skills in human form. Though I cannot shift into a wolf like the others, I am capable enough to win a fight with my current strength. That is only because I have been training myself for quite some time. From a very young age, I knew very well that I had to grow up to be the strongest one, because I knew that I would never be able to turn into a wolf when needed. So, becoming a skilled fighter is the only choice I have been left with or else I will not be able to survive in this world of werewolves. I am very much aware of the fact that without my wolf, I am kind of incomplete in comparison to the others, but that does not mean I will ever let anyone step on me. No, I will never allow that. You see, I am the princess of the Blood Moon Empire, and I can never be defeated, no matter what. But this time I was a bit nervous though. Cause, the one I need to fight with is no one but my mate, Cole. By the way, did I say that he is the new instructor everyone was talking about? No? Well, I guess, you know now. Surprised, aren’t you? Well, I was too. Because, earlier I thought that he got admission to our school as a student, but now I can see how wrong I was. Because he is the new teacher who joined last week. And the funny thing is that I only got to know about him just half an hour ago. ****flashback**** “What? He is the new instructor. Him? Are you sure?” My entire world flipped upside down with the sudden realisation when I at last got to hear from Jackson that my mate, Cole, had joined this school as our trainer last week only and became the very reason for creating an uproar among students due to his charms. I suppose this is what Linda was trying to talk about all this time. But why? Why did he have to come here all of a sudden? Anyhow, I am totally doomed, I guess. Him being the teacher means my grades are in his hands, and I am already not on good terms with him. Fuck!!!! “Hey, cheer up. He is not that bad, you know?” The sudden push from Jackson helped me come out of my trance in a second. He must have seen me sulking for quite some time. “But I do not like him at all.” I muttered underneath my breath, but I guess Jackson heard me clearly, so did Cole, as I did not fail to notice how Jackson’s lips curved up into a smirk whereas Cole’s jaws got clenched even more than before due to extreme anger. Well, how can I forget that, unlike me, they have extraordinary abilities. They can hear everything, no matter how low the sound is. Huh!! Wolves!!!! I could not help but sigh. “Everyone. Line up, fast. Boys, come and stand on the right side. And the girls on the left. Quick. We do not have all day.” Even though he looked nothing like he was in a good mood at that moment, he preferred to do his job properly and instructed all of us to gather up so that he could start today’s lesson. And that was how our training session began. So, Jackson had to go and line up with the boys while I stood with the girls. Time kept passing by, but for some reason I just could not forget what happened between us this morning. Though unconsciously, but the longer I kept staring at Cole from a distance, the more vivid the memory of our encounter became in my mind. As if I could still feel his lips on mine, as well as his hands, which touched me everywhere without any hesitation, even though it was just for a while. “Evangeline, right? You are the next one.” The sudden call made me come back to the reality in no time and only then did I realize that everyone was already done with their tests except for me. And now it is my turn to complete the task. As for our task, today we just needed to take our instructor down in one blow, and whoever will be able to do so, will be permitted to take the next skill development class while the rest will be stuck with practicing the previous course over and over again until they all pass. But I must say that Cole is not just someone who could be easily defeated, as I have watched how most of the students failed to pass the test today. And now, I am the last one who is left to prove myself, I guess. ****end of flashback**** So, with a deep sigh, I tried to dismiss all the anxiety that I kept feeling deep inside my heart and took off my jacket at last. The tank top that I was wearing underneath, felt very comfortable at this moment, as I could finally feel the gentle evening breeze on my skin, which kind of helped me to keep my mind as calm as possible. Cause, right now, I need it the most. I needed to free my mind and heart from all kinds of confusions in my life, so that I could just focus on the fight right now, and nothing else. ‘Evangeline. He just called me Evangaline as if he does not even know me. Well, if that is what you want, I will do the same.’ The sole thought made me furious like hell and I was absolutely ready to prove my worth by showing him what he is going to miss. But strangely, as the anger grew within me, I started to feel a bit different. As if I have become someone else in some way. My way of thinking changed when I started to feel the anger way more than I was supposed to feel for such a trivial reason. In fact, no reason was trivial for me anymore to get absolutely furious at this moment. And quite surprisingly, everything started to become red in my eyes. But I was least bothered about such kinds of things right now, which was quite unlikely for me. As I kept stepping forward with my big strides, I cracked my neck to both sides to ease the stiffness while I made sure to keep my eyes fixed on nothing else but my target. While I was at it, time seemed like it stopped for me as I barely noticed anyone move, even for an inch, but that was nothing for me to worry about. Cause the only thing I need to focus on is how I am supposed to bring Cole down to the ground with just one move. But even before I could decide what I should do, my body moved on its own, quite surprisingly. I ran fast and took a leap, only to fall in front of Cole on my knees. But even before he could budge, I grabbed him by his arm with one hand and circled around within a fraction of a second, so that I could restrain him from fighting back. And even before he could react, I flipped him in the air and pushed him on the ground with all the force that I had got. ‘I made it.’ I said in my mind. I was indeed happy that I could defeat Cole just like that. But little did I know that the reality is about to hit me hard in no time, which is going to make my world upside down once again. But right now, the only thing I knew was that I was feeling extremely hot for some reason. My breathings got increased as I kept feeling stuffy all of a sudden. In between all these, I absolutely forgot that I was still on top of Cole and was straddling him in between my thighs without any mercy at all. But when I noticed at last, I could not move at all, even when I knew that I was not supposed to stay this much close to him at any cost. I stayed right where I was for some time and was staring deep into those grey orbs just when a word skipped my lips quite strangely, “Devil.” Soon after, darkness started to consume me bit by bit, and the last thing that I recall is a very familiar voice calling me again and again. I wonder who it was? And what the hell is happening to me? Am I dying?
