The Alpha Who Cursed His Mate novel Chapter 35

"But I didn't attack anyone. No one got hurt,"

"You were going to attack someone, though. Students stated you were trying to break down a door to get into a classroom. You terrified everyone at the school. If it weren't for Nina, you would have hurt or, even worse, killed someone. And how Nina could calm your wolf without being your fated mate is an absolute mystery. People are spreading rumours that she must be delving into witchery or magic to tame and ride your wolf. I told them Nina is into no such thing and to not spread misinformation about her, but I fear the rumours will spread, anyway,"

"What do we do?" I ask.

"I think you and Nina can stay home and school here for the next couple of weeks until the rumours stop spreading,"

I nod in agreement.

Seth had set up two desks for Nina and me in the packhouse. Dad thought Seth would be best at being our teacher. But unfortunately, he was the most boring teacher and would drag on for hours, talking about the same topics. I scrunched up a piece of paper and threw it at the back of his head. Nina and I laugh but stop when he turns around, unimpressed.

"Which one of you threw that?" Nina and I both shrug and try to hold in our laughs.

Later on, we made paper airplanes and threw them in the air. They flew and crashed into the whiteboard.

"Are you two going to listen to the lesson and learn something or not? This is the last semester of the year until you both graduate." He huffs.

Almost two weeks after Seth's gruelling home-schooling goes by. It's now the weekend of Zak's wolf ceremony.

"I think it will be okay for you to return to school on Monday," Ryker says.

"Thank goodness, Dad. I don't think I could handle any more lessons from Seth," I laugh.

"Me either," Nina says. 'I'll see you at the ceremony tonight," she waves.

"Wait, where are you going?" I ask.

"I um… I'm going to see Moss,"

"What! But why?"

"We haven't spoken to each other ever since your ceremony. I was going to talk to Moss at school that day about some things, but you shifted, and we haven't been back at school since. Moss wants to speak to me, and I want to talk to him before seeing him at the ceremony tonight,"

"Do you want me to come with you?"

Nina bursts into laughter.

"Because that would go down so well, wouldn't it?"

"Fine, I'll see you at the ceremony tonight,"

She hugs me goodbye. I decide to hang out with Josie, Flint, and Zak.

"I can't believe it's my first shift tonight!"

"You must be thrilled. I still have to wait another year," Flint mumbles.

"At least you don't have to wait two years like me," Josie pouts.

"That's true," Flint replies.
