CHAPTER 7
Returning to school was strange, and not just because Cassie had skipped a few days. It was weird because now instead of blending into the background, people actually looked at her. She had grown used to people ignoring her or even a few fearing her from her lack of control over looking into their memories in the past. Now people actually spoke to her. It was beyond bizarre. The amount of hello’s she received on her way to her locker in the morning was enough to make her want to go back home.
At least she was going to get out of afternoon classes since she passed her exam. All she had to do was make it through the ten minutes of updates for the class and coven, and she would be free to be on her way. She already had plans to hit the library, and Whitney planned to go with her and skip her lessons. It turned out that Whitney had only kept taking the witch classes to be with Cassie once they became friends. As a skinwalker, she wasn’t expected to take classes, so she was there by choice.
“And did you see how Corey Tegan almost bowed to you when you walked by?” Whitney whispered to Cassie as they sat in the auditorium, waiting for the teacher to talk. Whitney found Cassie’s new celebrity status humorous, even more so that Cassie wasn’t taking it well.
“That’s not funny,” Cassie complained. “Did you see how Jennifer looked ready to curse me on the spot?”
The guys had all taken to staring or being quite courteous to Cassie, but many of the girls were not as keen on her new status. It had only been half a day, but it was already apparent there was going to be something more happening. Most of the other witchlings-in-training had never liked Cassie, and her new-found status among the males of the school didn’t help anything.
“You’ll be fine. Since the mark Than put on you can only be seen by night humans, they’re always slow to accept the news that someone is taken, especially by the next alpha,” Whitney replied. Cassie had heard it all perhaps a dozen times since she complained to Whitney, but it didn’t make it any better, nor was it a status she wanted to have. “When he makes it public, they can’t do anything to you without being forced to leave the coven. They’ll all get over it.”
“Makes it public?” Cassie asked cautiously.
She had noticed Nate talking with the teacher for more than five minutes. How could she not? She noticed everywhere Nate was now. It was like she could feel him looking at her. Somehow she had developed Nate radar, and it was more than annoying. It was worse than when she had her crush last year.
Mrs. Anton cleared her throat, and the whole room began to settle down. Nate stood just to the side of the teacher, looking like he was bored, but Cassie knew otherwise. He was actually really anxious.
