Chapter 142: 141. Unwanted Attention

It had already been two nights without a blink of sleep for Eden and the list of his assignments didn't diminish despite his determination. It was quite the opposite. Whenever he attended a class for the first time after his absence, the teacher gave him extra work so he could "catch up".

This time was no exception. Eden left the classroom with two extra assignments in his hands. He knew complaining wouldn't do anything so the blond just sighed. No matter what would happen, he had made a promise to his mate for this weekend and he intended to keep it. Cherry was walking, her eyes barely lifting from the book she was reading.

Glen had found copies for his mate and his two friends needed for their class. The female omega received the book as if it were a blessing from the Moon Goddess herself. In their class, other students gave them envious looks when they noticed that each of them had their copy and that they didn't have to join the fray of the waiting list for the library.

Eden stifled a yawn and checked the time on his phone. The screen lit up between his fingers and he noticed that his alpha had sent him a message. A smile crept onto his lips and he tapped out a response, his face glowing with joy. When he put the device back in his pocket, he noticed his friend watching him, a teasing smirk on her lips.

"What?"

"Nothing," she replied, lips curved upwards. Cherry returned her attention to the book.

"Did your mate tell you what he had planned for your date?"

"Nope," Eden answered without hiding his enthusiasm. "In any case, if I want to enjoy my time this weekend I will have to pull another…"

"Ouch."

A student coming from the opposite direction hit Eden's shoulder and dropped what she was holding in her arms. The blond immediately leaned down to help her.

"Sorry, I didn't see you. Is everything alright?"

Too busy gathering her things that were scattered on the floor, the female werewolf didn't answer him. She wanted to hurry up so she wouldn't be late for her next class. The girl was so focused on her things, that Eden did as fast as he could. He picked up the notebook and the documents that had flown away a little further and came back to hand them to her.

"Thank y…" The teen's eyes that had lifted to thank the person who had helped her met the blond's and widened. A shocked expression instantly twisted her features and, the second after, an almost palpable animosity took over.

"Bloodhood's Omega!"

She clapped her hands to her lips when the words left her mouth. The things she had just picked up fell to the ground again because of her hasty movement and she hurried back on the floor once again to pick them up.

Eden who hadn't understood her reaction but still wanted to help her bent down to but the female werewolf yelled out.

"No!"

She looked angry and the blond was taken aback by her reaction. He paused and she snatched from his hands the things he had just picked up. The girl glared at Eden and almost ran away.

"What's got into her?" asked Cherry, who had seen the whole scene.

The werewolf had no time to answer her friend. He noticed the curious looks that had been directed at him. Several students were looking in his direction whispering and he wanted to get out of there as soon as possible.

Cherry scoffed watching the high school girl walk away like fire was spreading behind her back.

"She could have at least said thank you. She ran into you," grumbled the female omega next to him.

"It's nothing." retorted Eden, shrugging his shoulders. "I wasn't watching where I was going either so it's not entirely her fault."

Since he came back to school, the young werewolf had been the target of attention and he wasn't comfortable with the situation. The news that he and his mate had passed the ritual of the Omega's mark had spread throughout the school after Alpha Silver broke the news to every pack around the country.

Some skeptics didn't believe in the ritual but thought the information was a good source of gossip. Another part believed and supported Eden. They were surprisingly more numerous than the omega had imagined at first. Others didn't express whether they believed or not in the ritual. They only badmouthed the male omega telling that he wanted to draw attention to him. Finally, others showed outright hostility.

One way or another, the omega's marking left no one indifferent and it wasn't the type of reaction they expected. The purpose of this announcement was to flush out possible hidden enemies and for the moment all was calm. Way too calm.

Of course, this calm wasn't to displease the young werewolf. Besides his lessons, Eden had only one thing in mind, his first official date with his mate. In exchange for the three copies of the book the blond and his friends needed for the report, Glen had negotiated a date to start courting him.

At first, Eden wasn't very confident because the concept of dates was more human than werewolf. However, some research on the subject quickly made him change his mind. To the point that his entire agenda was organized to keep the date's night free. No matter how many assignments his teachers gave him, he would finish them on time, he was determined.

Mind already far from the incident that had slowed them down, Eden arrived near the classroom where Dante was already installed. The beta who had taken advantage of the change of room to go get some documents in the teachers' room, granted a devastating smile to Cherry who ran to him, eyes sparkling with affection.

The blond rolled his eyes at them but smiled and settled down next to his friend. He was just starting to get his things out when the professor entered the room. It was the second time in a week that they had this class so the male omega knew he wouldn't be given extra homework and the thought made him smile.

The professor started the attendance and when he heard his name, Eden absentmindedly scanned his phone on the reader integrated into his desk and which was used to check his presence.

"Eden Bloodhood you are kindly requested to come to the dean's office at the end of the course."

The sentence said casually surprised the omega who couldn't contain his voice and cut off the professor who had already moved on to the next name on the students' list.

"Why sir? Is there a problem?"

The man paused and looked up to stare at Eden, a bored expression on his face.

"I'm just the messenger Mr. Bloodhood. Please ask your question to the Dean directly. With that, I'd like to finish the attendance if you don't mind."

His eyes immediately lowered on his tablet and he continued without paying more attention to the blond who started to feel worried.

Eden hadn't seen the dean besides the day he arrived at the academy. This meeting had been more than brief since the werewolf had only greeted him when he woke up in the infirmary after he had lost consciousness. It was indeed the day when, for the first time, he had crossed paths with his mate.

The male omega frowned, wondering what business the man could have with him. He knew that the dean of Red Creek Academy was also the beta of the namesake pack and his mate's uncle. Of course, he also knew what happened that day. His alpha told him he had met his uncle to refuse the order Alpha Carter had given him to comply with his mating proposal and hide the truth about his condition.

Even though today, the blond was finally marked by his alpha, the machination that the Red Creek beta had tried to set up at the expense of Bloodhood was stuck in his throat. Eden gritted his teeth.

When the bell rang after an uneventful lesson, he packed up his things and said goodbye to his friends who headed for the cafeteria.

Eden took the way to the dean's office where he arrived quickly. He wanted to get it over with to enjoy his lunch break. The blond reached up and knocked. No one answered him and he frowned. If he had been called, someone had to be present, right?

He lowered the handle, which gave way, and opened onto the secretary's desk. No one was inside, and the crease between the young werewolf's eyebrows increased. Just when he thought his professor might have made a mistake, the door to the dean's office opened.

Tomas Red Creek appeared in front of Eden and didn't hide his satisfaction as well as another emotion that immediately put Eden on his guard.

"Mr. Bloodhood! I'm glad you're already here. Please come in."

All Eden's warning signs turned red and the omega activated his skill Perception. Although recently he's been using it mostly to see energy flows, it's a useful skill to know what his enemy is up to. No matter what the Red Creek's beta had in mind, he would be ready to fight back with the best strategy.

The first thing he noticed upon entering the office was that they weren't alone as he had initially thought. The male omega didn't know what to make of this information, especially since they didn't look like high school students or teachers. Eden looked at the three other werewolves in the room and he displayed their data to know if he could handle them if the situation demanded it.

Since the incident with Sora's dome, Eden had leveled up well. However, his strength was still his weak point in a fight against a dominant. The omega thought back to Alicia's words advising him to use the system to his advantage and he realized how right the Servant of Talamh was.

He focused on what was going on around him and listened to the beta who asked him to sit down. The longer it went, the more the situation looked like a trap. Eden sat down in a chair. The three werewolves were standing behind him, in his blind spot.

Still, learning about their stats had reassured the male omega. There was nothing he couldn't handle on his own. He even had a few tricks up his sleeve to teach them a lesson if they dared do something against him. Not wanting to waste any more time, he decided to speak up first.

"What can I do for you, Dean Red Creek?"

"I had you come over to officially introduce me." Tomas Red Creek smiled and showed his razor-sharp teeth. "On the first day of your transfer here, you fell ill and we could only exchange simple courtesies."

"Oh… And you do that with all your students? It must take you quite a bit of time." retorted Eden, unfazed by the man's appearance.

"We are more or less from the same family so…"

"I don't have anything to do with you. How can we be of the same family?"

"Well, my nephew…"

"I won't play along to your little game. As I said, I have nothing to do with you other than the fact that you are the Dean of the school where I'm a student. Say what you have to say so we can be done. Why did you bring me here, Dean Red Creek?"

When he heard Eden's cold tone, Tomas Red Creek face darkened. The fake smile he had been wearing since the beginning faded and his features hardened. He heaved a dramatic sigh.

"To say that I was trying to show you sympathy. Don't say that I didn't try the soft way."

He looked at the werewolves standing behind Eden and nodded silently. The second that followed, the omega felt a hand on each of his shoulders, claws out, ready to sink into his flesh. He turned his head to look at one of those hands a crease between his eyebrows.

"You have three seconds to get your filthy paws off of me."
