The window of my bedroom was open and there was a woodsy scent in the air. I was sure that someone had been here in my room, but who? And most importantly, why?
Who was stalking me like this? What do they want from a freak like me? I couldn't find any answers to my question.
Days went by, as usual, the only difference was that I had closed myself in my room and avoided going out, especially to the pack meetings.
I had started going back to college after a few weeks when the college reopened after the annual break. It was not easy for me to get my life back on track after parting from my mate. My heart was still shattered from the loss, though I was trying hard to be strong for myself and my parents, still, it was not easy for me.
It was a blessing that no one from our pack had taken pre-med at the college with me, so I didn't have to face anyone while I took my classes. I didn't know what the teachers taught in the classes all I did was to stare at the blackboard in the class deeply engrossed in my misery.
I haven't seen the that old man after that day, it was like he had disappeared from the face of the Earth. Nor had I come across those red eyes ever again. I still got this feeling sometimes that I was being watched but I never caught anyone staring at me.
Life back at home was the same, I would stay in my room or go out on a walk at the edge of the woods. Mom and Dad were worried for me and I was trying to act as normal as I could in front of them. Dora was her annoying self, as usual, she would sort me out at the college during lunchtime and drag me along to the cafeteria.
Titus had not tried to make any contact with me, whatsoever. It was like I didn't exist for him at all. I should have known this better because no Alpha would want a Luna without a wolf for himself. He would want someone strong beside him who would stand with him in all the challenging situations in life. I couldn't give him that, I was not strong myself how would I help Titus with the challenges a pack has to face. I would only be a liability for him and a distraction.
I took my biology class and went to the library after it was over. I had to study for the test of chemistry which was going to be in my last class. I was never good at chemistry, but I had to take it as a major because it would help me with biochemistry. The symbols in the chemistry would all jumble up in my mind. I couldn't understand why scientists had to discover so many elements and make the life of students a living hell.
I was busy solving equations from my chemistry textbook when I felt the tingling sensation again with a chill running down my spine. I looked up from my book and looked around in search of my stalker but I didn't find any. The library was full of students busy with their work.
I jerked my head to get over the feeling of being watched and concentrated on the equation that I was solving. I stared at my notebook for some time with a blank mind. I had forgotten what I was supposed to do with this equation. I tried to concentrate but my mind had been distracted from the task. I was busy staring at my book when I felt the tingling sensation again with a chill.
My eyes shot up and were met with the glowing red orbs. Whoever it was, was standing behind the bookshelf kept across from my table and chair. The top shelf was nearly empty, most of the books had been taken down from there. He was watching me from the gap between two books and he had noticed that I was staring back at him.
I couldn't see his face because it was covered in shadows, but I could see his glowing red orbs. They sent a chill down my spine last like time. I got up from my seat not taking off my eyes from the red ones even for a second. I walked to the shelf and the moment I turned to face the spot where my stalker was standing, he was gone.
I couldn't believe how it could be possible, I ran down the aisle but I didn't found anyone there. Whoever my stalker was had lightning speed. One second he was standing there, staring at me, and the next moment he had disappeared in thin air. Who could that be and why was he hiding from me?
"Lewinsky," someone called me from behind.
I turned and looked at the person who was calling me, he was a guy from the senior year, "Someone left this for you," he passed me a book.
