Bring it on, Nasty!!

Chapter 7

Playing with fire ,

Fascinating but a dangerous game,

Yet , is not the beauty of the flame worth it ?

Ambrose

" I saw what you did to the girl in there" Alicia says disapprovingly as we make our way to the second class.

" Of course you did, It was a free show to everyone in the class "

Unlike the wolf pack, which I admit didn't care much about the school timings since, even the Principal of the school being human gives us a wide berth , I think he suspects we are all involved in a drug-dealing gang or something ( Who knows what with these humans ) They always find reasons to justify their fear of us but our good grades always keep us out of trouble.

I don't want to sound arrogant .Well, Even if I do I don't care .

We werewolves are really smart .Our level of intelligence leaves humans in dust .

Ali, however, though she is no less gifted in the intelligence department as us. Refuses to take advantage of it she insists on being in every class early, sits in front seats and takes notes in every class like a good girl.

Why does she go through all this trouble? Beats me .

" You were very rude" Ali says disapproval clear in her voice.

" When am I not ?" I ask her with a charming smile as I throw an arm over her shoulder.

By sheer luck ( Not at all by any effort on my part ) I reached the Organic chemistry class by whole seven minutes early and almost froze at the door of the classroom when I get a clear whiff of a familiar smell.

Jane- Throwing up-doe was in here.

Following the sent, I stop in front of the desk where a girl who is obviously new is trying her best to hide her face behind her book to avoid stares from people.

Not going to work.

I demand the apology she obviously owes me , for a second she looks utterly baffled her green eyes confused.

That irritates me ,I'm talking to a human after all. I don't like them and for a very good reason.

She continues to look confused.

Is she slow? Or deaf?

Or Both ??

I don't care.

All I want is an apology from her.

And at first, I think she will apologize because as I said humans are afraid of us.

Casually I settle in the empty seat beside her expecting her to start whimpering an apology any moment from now. But she surprises me.

"What ? " I ask again surprised when she coolly refuses to apologize to me and turns her face away.

It pisses me off but intrigues me a little.......

Though as angry as I am, I know it was way too childish to start a pen fight with her.

'I mean, A pen fight! Seriously? ' If it were someone else I would have laughed in their face.

But It was me!

What was wrong with me?

But the girl refused to give up and that egged me further and when I hear the paper rip away from her book. Ha! Ha !Victory

She dives for my book and though I don't care much for mine. I mean why should I ?

Ali takes notes and one look at them before exams is more than enough for me to get a good grade.

Before I know ,I grab her waist and pull her. She struggles like a wild cat frantic and I'm sure she is throwng in all that she has got to fight off my grip.

I , suddenly am having way too much fun watching her fight. Her face flush with anger and her green eyes full of fury .

I'm infuriated at the same time intrigued by this girl who is putting up a fight with me for humans can so not take on a werewolf, " Relax ! Princess " I say laughing

Instantly her already angry eyes flash with green fury.

That very instant I decide to call her that, Permanently.

" I know what happened between you both " Alicia says looking seriously at me

I give her a nonchalant shrug " Everyone in class does and I'm pretty sure Mr. Bateson will have it spread in the staff room. You 'll find it in newspapers tomorrow " Only t he last part was an exaggeration.

Alicia dismisses my words ,her face turning more serious by the second " You know I don't mean that. But between you two I'm pretty sure I sensed ....."

I stiffen holding up a hand immediately " Ali, You are overthinking. It was nothing " I say " Your witch - O-meter is giving a wrong reading today, Hermione Granger "

Her lips twitch into a smile "Maybe, Maybe not " She shrugs

" Hmm..." I feign thoughtfulness as I slightly rub my jaw with index finger " Not too sure about that but you will definitely be late to your next class if you don't leave now "

Alicia is already off like the wind.

I smirk , The girl is too studious for her own good.

I catch up with all my friends during lunch. The cafeteria food tastes like crap but with friends around anything seems good. Besides we are all werewolves we are always hungry!

Alicia as usual ( and no matter how many times we tell her ) skips lunch to go to the library .

We are all busy talking and laughing when I smell that distinguishable smell amidst the sea of smells. And there she is!

Princess.

Talking to a pair of identical looking blonde girls.

This school is very small and though I don't know their names I know they take the 'special' writing course here.

They are asking her what happened in the first period.

I grin hearing the anger in her voice as she recalls, there is a heavy embarrassment in her voice too but the anger is way too much fun for me. I wish I could see her face right now.

Yup, I guess I'm twisted that way.

The human girl's anger is intriguing me very much.

I intently listen to the conversation on her table (It's not hard given my sharp senses)

When one of the twins asks her my name she looks at our table and despite myself, I turn to look at her.

She ducks immediately, as If caught stealing something.

I chuckle turning away.

" Three o'clock " She repeats under her breath to the twins " Three o'clock"

I chuckle again.

Naive human thinks I can't hear her.

One of the blondes excitedly shrieks my name.

The next fifteen minutes.

Princess, By now whose name I had found out, is Maira spends it all trying to explain to the girls that I'm a top class jerk.

But the excited blonde is like my Unhired lawyer. She keeps finding ways to justify me ( My hotness apparently is my greatest justification )

One of my chatting friends who are used to tuning out other sounds of the cafeteria sees me smirking " What are you smiling at ?"

" At something interesting " I reply.

I walk into the Astronomy class, which is already full considering I'm ten minutes late but the teacher Mrs. Riley is worse than me. She still hadn't arrived.

I arch an eyebrow amused when I see Maira in the same class. And judging by the way she and Celeste are exchanging pissed off looks though they are sitting several seats away from each other their fury knows no bounds If both of them had the ability to shoot out laser beams from their eyes they would have made each other history by now.

Her attitude amazes me further.

Not only did she stand up to me, but also to Celeste.

Celeste is a werewolf too. Though she isn't in any pack.

She is more of a lone wolf.But she is certainly not someone to mess with.

We dated on and off back in the day.

But I soon realized there were no actual feelings between us ,and certainly not the kind that exists between weres and their mates.

I guess Celeste had figured it out too but she clung to the notion of being in a relationship with me . And though I may not be dating her anymore I will always see her as a friend.

Besides , I don't think I will ever get into a relationship now, Not after what happened a year ago.

I quickly stop myself before my mind can go into that dark territory again. Those thoughts always bring up pain and guilt.

My eyes land on Princess's face.

She is angry at Celeste and her face flares up further when she sees me.

I smirk.

Unfortunately, The seat beside her isn't empty so I settle for the one behind her. But not before I gesture to her with my hand ' I'll keep my eyes on you '

Mrs. Riley arrives.

As soon as I take my seat. I feel Maira quickly move her feet behind towards mine and give me a sharp kick.

I grunt more in surprise than anything else.

But before she can move her feet away, I grab her ankle between my feet.

She tugs on her feet trying to free her foot But my grip is unrelenting.

From behind, I can see her chair shaking slightly from the struggle.

I smirk, The girl's got spunk.
