Ashlynn was not invested in her nails and had demanded that Adeline come with her to her next appointment. Since she was no longer in communication with her wolf as much as she was before she had stopped shifting occasionally which is why she could have her manicure done.

It only made Adeline's mood dimmer.

​​

The doors opened and closed and he was finally the last person to arrive. Adeline did not bother to turn around to see who it was because they were frankly not invested enough in studying.

"Sorry,"

The mere grunt was enough for her breath to hitch.

Xavier. He was the third student to join.

Also I did not have that he was the president is it directly in front of her. Now she wished that she had taken the middle seat at least in front of her would be the teacher and not Xavier.

When she glanced at him sneakily she noticed that he was not looking at her as well. At the book in front of him as if deliberately avoiding looking at her.

She felt ignored and it was not a nice feeling.

"Now, that is why we are here, we are going to our history session." The old teacher with a huge beard came and sat right in front of Ashlynn.

Adeline was scared of this lesson because she didn't even know the name of this world.

"Are there any more questions before we start?"

Adelen raised her hand a little and the man nodded at her acknowledging to speak.

"Umm. . What is the name?"

"My name?" The professor in his grave voice.

She shook her head but realised that she did not know that either. "I mean, the name of the world."

"World?" The man looked confused, "What wor—"

"It's the shapeshifting realm. Everyone that can shift into something lives here and is under this kingdom's royal family." Xavier's voice rang out.

Ashlynn bit back her smile. It was obvious that Xavier was the first person to understand what Adaline was talking about.

"Oh, okay." Adeline nodded, "thank you."

God help with those red cheeks! As if things are not embarrassing enough for now she had to deal with these!

" Alright that if there are no more questions then we can proceed forward?" The man looked at all three of their faces and then proceeded when he got nothing in reply, "now we will begin from the very history . . .

Added and looked at her book. The very history which meant how wolves came to existence. So that means that it would also have the information regarding what happened when one mate died?

Her eyes narrowed slightly at the book. Somewhere in this huge library should be the book regarding what they were supposed to do. At least some kind of hint would be available.

There had to be one kind of ancestor that was invested in these things such as she was. It was not fair that on the passing of one the another one soon followed. Someone must have found out something.

"Also, you must not forget that there is a lot more history in these walls than there are in these books. If you want, you three have unlimited access to this library and the library inside the palace."

She narrowed her eyes slightly. It might work.

Once again the man had given her revision time. In fact he had only made them study for 30 minutes because according to him history was something that they were supposed to take interest in on their own and said he had already told them the stories they could go ahead and research on it for their fun.

Fun; now this man was either going to be a favourite teacher or this history was going to be her favourite subject.

"You will find me in the library. Give me a call and I shall come to you." The old professor said as he stood up and walked out of their sight.

Ashlynn was again busy in herself, an adaline muttered and soft excuse me and got up to leave.

She started with a random aisle while having no knowledge of where to go.

Health.

The first topic was held, which meant that they were talking about the medical science or just general biology of a wolf.

"Not you," she tutted under her breath and began to move to a different aisle.

Poetry.

Naah, who enjoyed poetry?

Then there was literature.

She huffed. This library was so huge and it had so many things inside it. Adeline wondered if she would be able to reach the department of history in time.

She frowned and moved back to where the health books were.

She squinted her eyes at them. Was it possible that by chance the health book also contained the death of the mate?

Because it must have been viewed as something quizzical that after one person died the other one soon followed. There must have been no possible explanation for it in the very beginning.

Her eyes lit up. That was it!

She started reading the titles of the book. The only trouble was she did not know where to begin.

"Professor?" She called out.

"Yes?" She heard at the other end of the library. She frowned. Did the professor not say that he would come?

"If I need to look for something, what to I look for to find the beginning?" She called out in a little loud voice. He was old and most of his hair was grey. It was obvious that he could not hear her properly as he could one day.

"Don't shout," she turned around to see the professor standing at the end of the aisle.

What the hell? She was completely shocked at how he had reached her without her knowing. He was old and he even had a hunched back!

He grinned, "Yes, child. I am an old Lycan. I am stronger than you are right now. Now tell me what are you looking for?"
