Countdown 15 Departing From the Alpha (Evelyn)
I Become Novel 40

Chapter 31

"Hi Jake. I am sorry, I said I would call you, but I did not." She frankly admitted, without any excuses.

Her warm tone unlike until now, even though she had not said many words during this whole time, made Rayan's heart ache and fill with jealousy.

“No problem, no problem. Who would dare to question their leader? I just wanted to check if you arrived home without any problems." He said reassuringly.

“Also, the secretary informed me and the guys that, although the courses start on the 15th of September for the normal classes, for the Watcher students they will start on the first of September, so you should come back some days before the first. As your Beta, I told her I will inform you myself, so she will not call you personally to let you know.” He informed her enthusiastically, happy she would come back earlier than she intended.

"Thank you for letting me know. Can you also do me a favor?" Celia asked, her tone still calm and mellow. The information about the watcher classes had quelled even more the lingering feelings of sadness and resentment she subconsciously still retained towards her family.

“Sure! Anything for my watcher pack's Alpha!” He hurriedly replied.

"I do not have the secretary's number on my old phone, and the Academy issued phone is not with me. Please ask her to book me a plane ticket on the next flight to the Academy. I only need about an hour to get to the airport, so any flight that is two hours or more away would be perfect.” Her voice! did not change as she told him, but he did notice something was off.

She had said she would stay home for the entire period of the vacation, and now she wished to come back immediately? Something must have been wrong with her family to make her leave. Celia was not an unruly and irrational person... if anything she was very attentive, and would likely suffer grievances by herself than cause others harm. Even before when they went to the city, the care and happiness she displayed while choosing presents for her loved ones showed just how much she valued them.

No stories available.

But from her family's part, although he could not tell whether they felt the same towards her, the one thing he knew for certain was that the only person she had any contact with was her brother. The rest of her family had not called her at all. But he did not question her, they would talk soon anyway in person.

Alright. The secretary already said that whenever you want to come back to just inform her, and

she would book a first class ticket on the following flight. You can already go to the airport, they should have VIP waiting areas for watchers and alphas prepared, so you can wait there comfortably.

Also, I will call a private driver from my family's company to come pick you up. We have a branch in the city next to your pack's border, it should take half an hour for him to arrive. Take care and call me when you meet with the driver." Jake quickly stated.

“Quite an efficient Beta you are. Thank you. I will do so." She replied gratefully, she was warmed by his care. He had already considered everything for her, but did not intrude further in her privacy.

Sighing a bit, as she had still been a bit unnatural and stiff as she talked, she closed the phone and headed for the exit. She should go and take her bags and head to the pack's border, luckily she did not unpack anything yet. Well, she did take out something from the luggage, the souvenirs for her family. But those were things that she wouldn't want to take back, even though she no longer wished to give them to her family, considering those objects represented her love for them. Forget it, she would just consider it as giving alms, or farewell presents.

The rest of the people there only now reacted, seeing she was about to leave. They had been stunned... she was actually a watcher student, and not just any watcher student which was already impossible for a girl, she was an alpha of a whole pack of them.

Her brother felt proud, deep down he knew what she was capable of. He was not sure about her strength, as he had never even witnessed her wolf form, but in regards to intelligence and fairness the was more than qualified.

Her father did not know what to make of the situation, he never did talk much with his daughter, he only knew her as someone who loved to do the chores around the house, but he never knew her passions, her wishes, and her capability. A watcher child would make any parent proud. He considered her the least capable of his children, and yet she was actually the best of the three.

Her mother's eyes flashed. The authority, the respect she would get from everyone... even the Alpha of the pack would have to personally receive a watcher. And as long as a watcher would be inside the pack's border, the alpha could only do whatever a watcher asked, otherwise he could be punished, or even exiled if a watcher snapped his fingers. She had heard that watchers were only below the Council, and the Council was only below the king. What could she do to change her daughter's mind? If Celia left now without making peace with her, perhaps she would never come back again.
