The Lycan's Soul Mate
Chapter 5 Luca's Predicament

Luca walked into his classroom and took a seat in the back. He smiledto himself as he listened to the chattering of the girls and the enviouscomments from the guys in his classroom as used his enhanced hearingabilities that was natural to him. One girl practically walked into herlocker while staring at him. Luca laughed to himself for he didn’t knowthat attending college with humans would be so amusing. He reallywould have to be extra careful as he could see that he would require noeffort to get laid here.

His professor walked in and he thanked the goddess that he was not afemale as this was way too much attention for one man. You wouldthink that people came here to learn but to Luca it seemed like a wholebuffet for choosing a mate well partner as humans don't use the termmate. He was actually grateful that Nancy had set him up withSoccorah. Initially he didn't think it necessary but apparently, he waswrong.

Come to think of it Soccorah would do good at passing the time as shewas very beautiful, with those green eyes that are to die for and herperfectly shaped body. He couldn't complain. Nancy always had hisbest interest at heart. The hookup with Soccorah would be ok for now. that is until she replaces someone that she wants to get serious with. Hedidn't realize that this many girls would be interested in BusinessAdministration. Females actually formed the majority of his class.

Luca was Heir to a billion-dollar Yachting conglomerate. After hismother passed away, they elected a temporary CEO as Luca was stillunderage. His father was more into the pack and ensuring that oursecret remained a secret. He was involved in the business but as it wasmy mom's family business he chose to not be too deeply involved. Thiswas something that Luca never understood about his dad. Luca onlyrecently acquired his voting rights and could now sit in on meeting withthe board of directors.

This had tremendously influenced Luca's decision to study business ashe was never one to sit around and let persons do his work for him. Hewanted to make his family proud. His father worried that he would notbe able to handle the burden of leading the pack and managing hisbusiness. Luca was never really that interested in leading the pack buthad to take on that responsibility as he was his father’s only child.

He secretly prayed that the moon goddess would smile upon his fatheronce more and bless him with a son to lead the pack. He would then berelieved of this burden. But one cannot force love. His father was afterall a handsome man and still very young at that. There was still hope.Luca chose to not give up on this wish. He was brought back to realityby the sound of a young Jock's voice asking him whether he signed upfor the wrestling team.

“No, I play basketball and run track.” He answered. “Too bad" the boyreplied with a disappointed look on his face. Luca possessed superhuman strength and knew that it would be too easy to hurt a human sohe chose to keep away from sports that highlighted strength andviolence. Now he not only had to be careful with the girls and theirraging hormones but he now had to worry about not hurting the guys.But it was all worth it. He persuaded his father to put his trust in himand he was not one to go back on his word or fall short. Maybe if hedid well, he could persuade his dad to let him stay closer to the city. Hedid love their home in the edge of the woods where his pack waslocated but he loved it here also. He was half human after all. If only hisfather would choose a new mate, then all his troubles would be over.Luca never thought that he would have to listen to himself thinking thatbut it is about time. It's been a little over 8-years since his mom passedaway. His dad was a man and he has needs. Hell! He was only 17 andwas already drawn to someone he saw in his dream when he firstshifted. His beautiful white wolf.

Just then the professor interrupted his thought to begin the class.Business law was an integral part of his course but what he wasn'tlooking forward to was Spanish as a second language. While he couldunderstand the importance of learning a second language especiallygiven his family’s business, he was not good at Spanish. He woulddefinitely be needing some help in that area.

He wondered how Soccorah was doing in her anatomy class. He smiledto himself as he knew how much she hated Anatomy which was strangeas it was necessary for her Nursing major. She also had Spanish as asecond Language. He had it at 3:30 for a whole hour. How was hegoing to survive that class? Maybe if he sat next to Soccorah she couldhelp him or distract him.

“I would like a 1000-word essay on “the legal limitations andconditioning factors of Business Law.” This will be due next week4:00PM. No excuses.” His lecturer stated. “The hell is wrong with thisGuy? Who gives an assignment on the first day not to mention the firstclass of the day!” He frowned to himself. Some sighs and soft whisperscould be heard but no one dared to challenge the professor. Lucathought to himself what a challenge this would be for him with the fullmoon only 4 days away. He had already started to feel it's pull. Duringthe full moon he would not be able to control his shifts. He would haveto spend his nights as a wolf and Wolves could not write papers. LucaSighed deeply as he knew that he would have to get to workimmediately if he didn't want to miss this deadline. “Bummer” hethought to himself as he left the class. He had 2 free periods then hisSpanish class after Lunch. He walked over to the library to get startedon his essay. This was really going to be tough to juggle 2 lives. But ithad to be done.
