A week later, auditions for the play were held, attracting numerous students. For the lead roles, some came in pairs while some came alone. The judging committee comprised of two teachers and three students.

While all students were giving their best, the committee wasn't able to find the spark between the lead pairs. They had already tried many different pairings. ​​

Niiya had been trying to convince Adrianna to audition with him for the play for the entire week, but she kept refusing. In the end, Niiya had to threaten that he wouldn't give her his notes in future whenever she needed them. Adrianna had gritted her teeth and said, "Okay! I will go, but if this doesn't work out, I will not redo it!"

"Done!" said an ecstatic Niiya.

When they reached the main hall where the auditions were taking place, they found that some students were sitting on the ground waiting for their turn while some were up on the stage helping the auditioners perform their dialogues as the committee watched them from below.

Niiya and Adrianna went and sat down near the students.

A few minutes later, there was a flurry of movement. Niiya turned to look at the entrance and rolled his eyes. His sister Ookashi had entered the hall, and as usual, was the center of attraction. She was wearing a black mini-skirt with a blue blouse and her hair was neatly tied in a bun. She was walking with her hands coiled around Nate.

The students present went gaga over the couple that had walked in. There was so much flair around them that it was hard not to notice.

Ookashi and Nate went to the judging committee table where she said out loud, "Can you give us a chance next?"

"There are many students waiting in line," replied one of the members.

"Oh! They don't have a chance against us. Let us audition first and then you can ask them all to go back, because we are the best," replied Ookashi. Nate was looking at her adorably. He wanted to make out with her there and then. The poor one was waiting for the right chance to declare that he was a wolf. His wolf was eating him inside. "How long must I wait?" his wolf cried

"I am sorry Ookashi. Just wait for your chance."

Ookashi made a silent harrumph and went to sit on one of the chairs behind them. When she saw Niiya and Adrianna, she exclaimed and excitedly left Nate to go near them, much to his disdain. Nate followed her.

"Adriannaaaa, how are you? Girl, it's been a long time since we last met!" she crooned and hugged Adrianna.

Adrianna giggled and said, "Good you are here. Now Niiya can rest."

Niiya pursed his lips in anger. A committee member soon called him over, so Niiya got up and left.

Ookashi looked at the sullen Niiya. She knew that things were not working as they should have been between her brother and Adrianna.

Nate sat beside her, waiting for her like a puppy, while she talked to Adrianna. It was not long before they saw that Keisha had walked into the main hall, along with Liam and Dmitri.

All eyes were turned to Dmitri as he entered. With his broad shoulders and muscles that showed beneath his white t-shirt, he had everyone drooling upon seeing him. He was looking straight ahead in front of him and didn't even spare a glance at Adrianna who had been watching him since the moment he had entered. He had his hands in his pockets while Keisha was hanging around his arms as usual. The two of them went to sit on the chairs behind the judges.

Adrianna followed them with her eyes until they sat down before averting her gaze. She felt like running out of the hall. Ookashi was talking to her, but nothing was registering in her mind.

Nate looked at Dmitri and shook his head. He mentally communicated to him, "Stop making it difficult."

Since Keisha could listen to their thoughts, she barged in. "Difficult? What do you mean?"

Nate became quiet and contained his thoughts as he turned to Ookashi and returned to ogling her with admiration in his eyes.

Niiya came back to them, dejection written all over his face. "They are forcing me to be a part of the main committee." He looked at Adrianna with a sad face. Adrianna was happy so she chuckled.

"So that means that I am free! See you Niiya," She started getting up and picked up her bag.

"Wait Adrianna!" shouted Ookashi. "You must see us perform!"

Adrianna couldn't say no to her and sank back in her seat.
