Countdown 15 Departing From the Alpha (Evelyn) novel Chapter 37

Chapter 28 

“I saw everyone, and now I am going back to the Academy.” She stated simply, not wanting to dive more into the subject. There was no point in doing so. Moreover, by talking she would delay leaving the pack territory, inviting more trouble and anguish. She had enough for today, she had enough for her whole life actually. 

“Ehhh, but you said you were on your break. How can you leave when you just got here?” The reason his sister gave him was clearly a dismissive one, it was a reason covering up a bigger problem, and for Celia to become upset it took quite a serious matter to make it happen. 

“Celia?” A stern voice interrupted their conversation before she managed to reply, it was a voice that did not held the smallest affection for a child a parent had not seen in more than a month. It was her father, Robert, arriving for the Ceremony. He was accompanying the old alpha of the pack, Richard, and his Luna Abigail. 

Seeing them, Celia railed in any emotions she had, she did not know the exact participants of the deceiving act that was happening inside the ballroom, or alternatively named the Luna ceremony of her sister. But even if she knew it made no difference, her only goal was leaving.

Showing the bear maximum respect she could conjure at this moment, she slightly nodded in the direction of the newcomers, acknowledging their presence, but did not exchange a word of greeting. When she had become a watcher student, she and the other students had received a small guideline book with regulations they needed to follow in the future, rules other packs needed to follow in contact with them, and other such things. 

In the book, it was stated that by becoming a watcher, one was no longer part of their original pack, but he/she was part of the pack that was formed together with the other watchers and, extended, they were part of the royal pack. 

As such, they were required to maintain their distance from the members with authority from their original pack, and to only conduct themselves in a formal way, not in the humble manner they were previously accustomed to. This applied from the moment their tattoo appeared on their bodies. As students, they were already considered half a watcher. 

Explaining further, it meant that submission to their home pack’s alpha, not only was no longer required of them, it was even prohibited. 

“What are you doing not bowing to your alpha? Your mother told me what a stupid thing you doing. Honestly, begging her just to become a laughing steale

Are you getting cocky now, when you have not even taken the test at the Academy?” He boomed furious. Her father always had a strict demeanor and would scold her for the smallest of supposed mistakes. He was also one, as much as her mother, who showed a difference in treatment, believing the Luna fate that belonged to her sister. 

“It is alright Robert. Don’t get angry. The girl did not mean any disrespect.” Richard said smiling, but Abigail slightly frowned at her actions. 

Celia did not respond to her father, ignoring him, still looking at her brother. Her father’s imposing voice no longer held any importance to her. She had never felt fear towards her father, as one would fear a higher ranked alpha, only treated him with respect. 

It had given the latter the impression that she feared him, but now with the veil not covering her eyes anymore, the previous respect was nonexistent. For some reason she had the feeling her father also knew and participated in the lie. If not at the very beginning, as he was away, later he was most likely informed of what her sister and mother did.

“I am leaving now. I will text you later with my new number, the Academy issued another number for me that I am obligated to have. You can contact me using that number whenever you want.
