Mr. Danvers hates me.
Evie Pov
I roll my eyes as I slowly unroll it wondering why she can’t wait the half hour to talk about whatever this is when class is over. I sigh as I start to read her note, Why are you not more excited about the Alpha Kings visit? His presence alone shows a great respect for our pack and how it runs! Otherwise he would have summoned your family to him! Ugh, I think as my skin crawls and write my response down. Why would I be excited?? If the King was here to give our pack the praise it deserves and discuss our superior leadership or training I would jump for joy. But why on earth would I ever want to entertain the idea of being mates with that fuckboy Prince. How sad is it that I don’t even know his name but can still name at least 20 of his conquests! That is not the mate for me, and god I hope it’s not the mate for Lizzie either she deserves way better than that lowlife. I quietly slide the note back to Hazel hoping this is the end of that conversation. I watch out of the corner of my eye as Hazel opens my note and snickers to herself before much to my sadness she begins to write again and pass the paper back to me. Geez Evie your not even giving this guy have a chance! You have never even met him and your basing all of your judgments based of rumors that have spread about him. What if none of that’s even true? What if he’s some sad lonely virgin who has never even touched a girl, and just started those rumors so no one would think less of him. Maybe he’s a nice guy and your going miss out! Give him a chance for me? I roll my eyes and laugh out loud at what she wrote! Then I carefully hid the note under my textbook before Mr. Danvers whips around with daggers in his eyes. “GENEVIEVE, do you care to share with the class what you found so funny about the pack wars that took place 10 years ago?” Shit, I didn’t even know what Mr. Danvers was talking about when I laughed and now I have to come up with something to say. I glance and Hazel hoping she can give me a hint but I can see her trying to hide her own laughter at me outing myself and trying to cover it up. “Um, I’m sorry Mr. Danvers.. I uh didn’t mean to laugh. Um I think it’s just that it’s sometimes so easy to forget about the pack wars that happened due to the peace that we still have. It’s almost unbelievable that it happened it our lifetime.” I say while sighing happily that I managed to come up with a cover story. “Interesting take Genevieve, glad to know your more than just a pretty face and actually think about what is happening with your people.” Mr. Danvers says with a small smile. As he turns back to board to continue his lecture I don’t know whether to his comment as a compliment or not so I just move on. Pulling Hazel’s note back out and start my response. While I highly doubt the Prince is some sad lonely virgin even if that is the case, that doesn’t mean I should give him a chance! I would lose my chance at going to Blackwood and having the freedom to travel the world. Plus on top of that I think you’re forgetting that Lizzie is more likely out of the two of us to be mated to a prince. And she would be the perfect future Queen. Besides like I told you this morning I won’t even be here when they arrive, so there’s no point in speculating on what could be. I slide the note back to her. Before she can respond the bell rings granting me my much needed freedom from this conversation. I pack up and start the walk to my next class with Hazel quickly falling in step with me. “ I guess you not being here is enough to stop my fantasy about you being mated to a handsome Prince who will sweep you off your feet and making your dreams come true!” Hazel says wistfully. I look at her astonished “ When has that ever been my dream! Hazel are you more mushy than you have been letting on!” I chuckle while playfully nudging her shoulder. “Eh I wouldn’t say mushy, I’m just saying if he isn’t the sad lonely virgin boy, and everything I have heard is true he is a sex god. And in that case maybe he will give you new dreams! Like sexy new dreams!” She winks at me as we get closer to class. “ I didn’t know you thought I was I need of sexy dreams, I think I’m doing just fine in that department thank you very much.” I glare at her as we turn on long hall out class is located at the end of. “ Ha! Just fine you have never even kissed someone! Even your saint of a brother Matt has kissed people and I mean multiple. I get saving saving yourself for your mate because I’m doing the same thing but that doesn’t mean I can’t have a little bit of fun myself if I meet someone I like.” Hazel says with a twinkle in eyes that tells me she means everything she said. I roll my eyes as I sit down in my desk thankfully for the bell ringing and putting an immediate end to this conversation.The rest of my day drones on as per usual. I was the first to finish our final and took advantage of leaving early. I started my packing for Blackwood early then quickly finished my evening training and went to bed. The rest of the week continued on just the same as Monday class, gossip with Hazel mainly surrounding the supposed sex god Prince. Then finish the day off with finals, packing and training. I was so looking forward to this weekend when Hazel and I decided to go shopping for our prom dresses! That was until I ran into my parents in the kitchen hoping they avoid the topic of prom dates . “Hey mom, hey dad! How are you guys on this beautiful Saturday morning?” I ask cheerfully. “Good morning Evie, your in a great mood today excited to go dress shopping?” My mother asks sweetly while icing her homemade cinnamon rolls. My mother waters at seeing them how did I miss the smell of those on my way down the stairs that’s what happens when your over focused on dress shopping I guess! “ I am, I can’t believe this is my last high school dance I want it to be perfect! And the first step for that is definitely the perfect dress I’m thinking midnight blue will make my eyes pop!” I smile widely hoping for her to agree. “That sounds beautiful Evie.” My father states. “ I have settled on two date options for you as well, but I wanted to leave the final approval of your date up to you.” My father smiles. Great just what I was hoping to avoid. “ And my choices are?” I ask hesitantly.” My father again gives a small smile “Alpha Johnsons son Micheal or Alpha Steven’s son Howard.” I roll my eyes “ Dad seriously Howie Steven’s has has a crush on me since I was like 5 years old, why would I go to prom with him get his hopes up? Obviously Mikey it is.” I let out a defeated sigh. I would rather not go with either, but I don’t want to give Howie false hope by accepting his date offer. “Well you know Howard could be your mate Evie, but Micheal is an acceptable choice as well I will let his father know you have accepted his offer he will be over joyed!” My father says while jumping up and heading to his study. “ I know you don’t want to go with either but thank you for making a choice Evie, it is your duty to ensure our alliances with other packs and I know you will do beautifully.” My mother says a bit teary eyed. “Thank you mom, I love you guys and will be home soon. Hazel’s driving us to the mall.” I give her a hug and with that I’m out the door.
