She forced herself to focus on the question before her, her pen gliding across the page as she poured every shred of knowledge she had into an essay on cisplatin and its uses. She couldn't afford to falter—not today, not ever.
Theroom was already quiet as it was an examination hall, but this kind of silence was cold and full of .... Fear!
But she focused on the question before her, her pen gliding across the page as she poured every shred of knowledge she had into an essay on cisplatin and its uses. She couldn't afford to falter—not today, not ever.
She had to clear this
exam with very good grades, and she knew this very well.
For humans, the rule was cruelly simple:
Score 95% in every subject, or you earn no degree at all.
For mythical creatures, however, a mere 40% was enough to secure the same qualification. Unfair! But nobody could do
anything.
The Alpha of the region as well as the King of the mythical creatures ,would literally kill any human who as much as raises a voice against the monsters.
She was busy writing everything she knew as fast as she could when ,suddenly she felt a low growl. This growl was a like a ..... approval.
Living with the mythical creatures, especially werewolves, for almost ten years, had given her a dangerous sort of fluency. . She knew what each type of growl meant. She even had a subject in her
educational institution on werewolves, which supplied her with all the required information.
Another growl was heard, which sounded like, it wasseeking attention. She ignored the growl again. For her, the exam was much more important than some stupid mate ritual. knew that the werewolf was asking for attention as he had sensed his soul mate.
She was very well aware of the fact that the only weakness of these monsters was their soul mates. And, once they find their soul mates, they feel complete. She couldn't help but scoff at this. She had witnessed these monsters finding their mates. The only thing which she could describe it was.....It was insane! She thought. still didn't look up, as the students were not allowed to look anywhere other than their sheet of paper- or else their exam would be cancelled.
Must be the invigilator! She reasoned.
She was about to think about other creatures when she heard a psst sound. She knew who it was. Her best friend's seating arrangement during the university examination was exactly behind her.
Maybe, she wants to know the answer to some questions. She slightly tilted her head to look behind her through the periphery of her eyes. But, her eyes fell on a body instead. She stared at the stomach of the person. Out of instinct, her eyes started to travel up. She could say it was a man- a very build-up man. His broad chest was enough to justify her point. But she didn't want to waste her time looking at somebody. She had an exam to complete. But, the curiosity to look up at this man was high.
Before her eyes could reach his shoulder, her best friend screamed.
"No!!!" Her best friend screamed. Her scream echoed throughout the already silent room. For other werewolves, her voice hurt like hell, even some of them growled in annoyance! But, it was a lifesaving scream. She knew what her friend was telling her indirectly.
Her soulmate was standing right in front of her!
