A Girl Adopted by Wolves

Last school bell rang just now and I am stuffing my things in my bag. Aaron and I walked out the door together. Natalie and Oliver were standing in the parking, talking to each other. Alex and Elena were talking near Elena’s car. Aaron's, Elena's and the Knight's cars were magically parked next to each other. As we reached near them, they turned their heads towards us and waved at us. Aaron gave them an awkward smile and I waved back while walking towards Aaron's car. Maybe Aaron wasn't much comfortable around them. I should have asked him about it beforehand but I can’t do anything about it now. It’s too late for that. Ryder was so quiet all day, I would have forgotten he was even there, if he wasn't so freaking huge. God bless me when I reach home. He is waiting for me at the back of the school were we usually meet, but this time for a different reason. Aaron gave me a tight hug and left in his car.

"Are you free this Saturday evening?" Natalie asked walking towards me.

What is with the vampires asking me if I am free or not? I am so, let's see what she wants. They are really nice people, if they really count as people. As I am still a part of their cuisine, I got to be careful.

"Yeah. Why did you ask?" I replied.

"Well Grace and William invited you and Elena for dinner. I know this sounds weird but they really wanted to meet you two properly. Elena already knows about us. Alex told her. They are dating now." she muttered something under her breath "You also left in a haste that day. We don't blame you or anything. We can understand. You must be really sacred.” Not scared of you. Okay maybe a little. “They just wants to be more familiar with their new family members. So are you coming?" She asked expectantly.

Girl you have no idea who I am. But I can't deny her offer. It would sound rude. And what does she means by new family members? Elena, I can understand but me… Well let's see what they want.

"As long as I don't end up as your dessert, I am good to go." I joked. Some part of me did wanted to confirm that that was not on the agenda.

She laughed," Don't worry about it. We use blood bags not actual humans and sometimes animals." She said casually.

Nothing I didn't knew about. Thanks to the high and mighty Alpha Hercules.

'I heard that and extra training for you on Sunday for using my first name.' Papa’s voice rang in my head.

Uhhh this old man. Does he even have a second name? I mean it’s only Hercules right.

'Want me to extend your punishment young lady?' papa threatened playfully and I heard Ryder trying not to laugh at my expense and failing miserably. Huh those two jokers.

I ignored those two and laughed on what Natalie said and continued talking with her," Well then I should get going. It's a long walk home."

"Sure. See you tomorrow." She said walking towards her car.

"Yeah. Bye." I waved at her.

With that being said Alex, Oliver and Natalie climbed in their car and left. Elena was already gone by now. But didn't Alex say, he wanted to talk to me about something after school. He might have forgotten about it. I should get back home too. I also have to go to my shift in the diner later. I started walking in the jungle with Ryder but didn't talk to him in case anyone saw me. Few steps in and Ryder stopped in his tracks. He said, 'He is coming this way'. Before I can say anything, Alex was standing in front of me. I screamed in surprise. He stared at me and then started to laugh. I am this close of bitch slapping him but that won't hurt him so why waste my energy.

"Are you going to stop laughing or not?" I asked pouting.
