The Werewolf King’s Runaway Queen
Bonus 2

Reese's POV

I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock and immediately sat up.

I looked at the clock and sighed.

It's Monday again meaning I have to go back to school.

I slightly frowned but got out of bed and headed to the shower.

I took a shower then as usual, I dried myself off and put on a robe then did my skincare routine.

After that, I got out of the bathroom and walked inside my walk in closet to get my clothes.

I already picked my clothes for the week yesterday so I don't have to before going to school.

For today, I picked out a while solid form-fitting turtleneck top paired with black solid pleated hem corduroy skirt and white almond toe side zip chunky heeled ankle boots.

I wore my clothes then headed to my vanity area and did my usual everyday makeup for school.

I don't wear heavy makeup to school or when I go out.

I only ever wear heavy makeup during special events.

Mom and aunt Lia were the ones who influenced me in how I dress, how I do my makeup and how I carry myself.

I'm not the sweet and girly type but I dress well and I always look my best.

I do it for my own satisfaction.

Also, I'm a Princess after all.

I just let my hair down and looked at myself in the mirror checking if everything was good.

I was satisfied with how I looked so I grabbed my school bag and headed downstairs.

River was in the living room already but he seemed like he also just got down.

He turned around and saw me then smiled.

"Good morning" he greeted and gave me a kiss on the forehead.

"Morning" I greeted back.

"Mom and dad are in the kitchen" he said.

Mom and Dad came back on Saturday half way through our sparring session with the other wolves.

The first round of the sparring session was Eeri and Astro against 4 wolves with 5 years experience.

River and I also fought 4 wolves with 5 years of experience.

Then for the second round Eeri and Astro fought 6 wolves with more than 4 years of experience and so did we after them.

After that, it was like a riot.

The 4 of us fought together.

Our 3rd round, we fought 16 wolves together.

The 4th round, we fought 20 wolves together.

Then for our last round, we fought 30 wolves together.

In total, the 4 of us fought 76 wolves that day and more than half of them needed medical attention.

Thus, we are not allowed to spar with the other wolves until next month.

Uncle Bry said that although it's a good teaching moment for the other wolves, he didn't wanted them to traumatize and injure every wolf under him. We of course very much understood.

We only want to encourage the other wolves to train harder.

And maybe have a little fun on the side.

Some of those wolves needed to be humbled every now and then.

It's also one of our ways to show them or remind them why we're worthy of our titles.

We worked hard to become as strong as we are now.

We reached the kitchen and saw mom and dad there.

They nudging each other playfully and River and I chuckled.

They turned around to look at us and they smiled when they saw us.

"Hi, my babies" mom said as she walked over to us.

Mom gave River a kiss and a hug and shw also gave me a kiss and a hug.

I smiled.

Dad also walked over to us giving River a squeeze and giving me a kiss on the top of my head.

"Breakfast is ready. Shall we eat so you guys can head off to school?" she asked.

River and I nodded.

We got our food and sat down on the dining table.

Mom and dad asked how school was going for us and then we ended up talking about our last sparring session with the wolves.

It was nice.

I didn't talk too much and just listened in as they talked.

Once breakfast was finished, we hugged and kissed our parents goodbye.

A royal chauffeur drove us to school.

I looked out the window as we left the Palace territory.

River is in his 12th year. He's a senior while I'm on my 11th year.

I'm supposed to be in my 10th year but I skipped a grade in elementary school.

We go to a school with both human and werewolves.

Of course, the humans don't know that there are werewolves among them.

Well, some know.

Those include River and I's human friends that we've been with since elementary school. Later, I'll see them.

We're more than halfway into our school year and River's graduation is just around the corner.

He can either go to college once he graduates or he can ask to be sent out to train in solitary.

He can also just stay in the Palace if he wants to.

It really just depends on him and what he thinks will benefit him most in the future as the future King.

It's his pick.

"What are your plans today?" River asked me.

"Nothing. I'll attend my classes, eat lunch with my friends and just meet with them afterwards then probably go home" I said. "You?" I asked back.

"I'm practicing with the team for a week after classes. We have a game on Friday" he said.

I nodded.

"Do you want me to wait for you?" I asked.

"I'd like that" he said with a smile.

My brother is in the football team.

Actually, he's not just in it.

He's the team captain.

He's been the captain since last year.

He's also the star player of the team so no wonder.

River does not only play really well, he leads the team brilliantly as well.

Good for him.

After some time, we reached our campus and the chauffeur opened the door for me and River and I both got off.

As soon as we got off the car, other students looked our way.

I simply ignored them.

This was a common occurrence.

River and I said thank you to the chauffeur and we made our way inside the campus.

The people around us turned their heads our way as we walked inside and through the hallway.

River smiled at some of them and I just kept a straight face on until I reached my locker.

"I'll see you later" River said and he gave me a kiss on the cheek before walking away.

I opened my locker and grabbed a few things I needed the closed it.

"Reese!"

I turned around to the familiar voice and saw my friends.

My friend, Cara immediately pounced on me and hugged me.

She giggled in delight and I chuckled a bit.

"Good morning" Safiyya greeted me with a nudge.

"Morning" I greeted back.

"How was your weekend?" Taffy asked.

"Fine. I met my cousins and played golf" I said with a shrug and we started walking together in the hallway.

We all had the same subject for our first class together.

"Oooooh. Was it the Hayes brothers?" Wynna asked.

I nodded.

Wynna squealed in excitement.

"Then, you saw Eeri Hayes?" she said batting her lashes.

I nodded and chuckled.

Wynna shook me as she squealed excitedly.

She has the biggest crush on my cousins.

Specially Eeri.

Cara and Safiyya are wolves in different packs not too far away from the campus.

Taffy and Wynna are both humans but they know we're werewolves.

I met them in 2nd grade and they're all a year older than I am since like I said, I skipped a grade.

We reached our classroom and went to our seats and sat down.

"What did you guys do during the weekend?" Saf asked.

"I went to the mall and had a date with myself" Cara said with a smile.

"I finished a book" Taffy said proudly.

"I trained with the team" Wynna said with a slight frown.

Then, I looked at Safiyya.

"I learned to cook a new dish" she said.

After that, we talked more before the professor came in.

Or at least they talked and I listened in like always.

The professor came and we stopped talking as the class started.

Once our first class ended, we switched rooms.

I was still with Saf since we had the same second class together.

"What else did you do on the weekend?" she asked me.

"I trained with my cousins and had a sparring session with other wolves" I said.

"You?" I asked back

"My dad brought me to a mountain ok a Saturday night and we went hiking in our wolf form" she said.

"That sounds nice" I said.

"It was. I had so much fun" she told me.

Safiyya is my bestfriend.

She was the very first one to approach me before.

She didn't even know I was royalty then.

She only found out when we got together with Cara.

Cara knew almost everything so she knew I was royalty from the beginning.

Then, we eventually met Taffy and Wynna.

We had to hide the fact that we were werewolves up until we were in 8th grade.

Taffy and Wynna were surprised, confused and curious at the same time but they accepted us nonetheless.

From then on, our friendship just kept getting stronger.

They've all been to the Palace a few times and the first few times were quite the experience.

I've also been to their homes and packs and I was welcomed warmly.

Our parents know each other enough.

We reached our classroom and Saf and I sat down beside each other until the professor came ans started the class immediately.

Time passed by and Saf and I separated before lunch to get to another class.

After that, we all met up in the cafeteria.

Saf, Cara, Wyn, Taffy and I got our lunch and sat down on our usual seats.

Of course, there were some people looking our way but like any normal day, I ignored them as I had lunch with my friends.

"The jocks are coming" Cara announced.

"And here comes your brother and cousin, Reese" Saf told me.

"Ree" River called me.

I looked at them and River caressed my hair when he got to me.

"Hey, Reese" Astro greeted me with a tap and I nodded at him.

Astro is in the same school in the same batch as River and they're also in the same team.

Behind them, were their football team mates.

"What's up, Reese?" Jordan greeted me with a mischievous smile.

He was the assistant captain of the football team.

"Step back, Jordan" Astro slightly warned.

Jordan simply smirked and then looked at me and gave me a wink.

My brows furrowed at him.

River's teammates finally went to their seats and I just shook my head.

"Don't mind him" River said.

"I never did" I said with a shrug.

River and Astro chuckled.

One thing about that Jordan guys is he always fools around.

He and River have a casual understanding since they both have to keep the team intact.

He's a jerk and I don't like him. Not even one bit.

"Will you wait for River later?" Astro asked me.

I nodded.

"Watch us then. Let us know what we're lacking during the training" Astro said.

"Sure, whatever" I sais taking another bite of my food.

"Okay, we'll see you later" River said and he planted a kiss on the top of my head while Astro gave me a squeeze and they joined their teammates.

"ACKKKK! They're both so cool and all and Astro is just so dreamy" Wyn said.

"River is definitely more attractive though" Cara commented.

"Because you guys have different tastes" Taffy pointed out.

"True" Cara and Wyn said in unison.

We all chuckled.

"You guys do realize that they can here you right?" I reminded.

Cara and Wyn immediately flushed red and the Saf, Taffy and I chuckled.

We continued to eat our lunch and when we finished, we left together and went our separate ways to get to our classes.

Classes resumed and after a few hours, we were dismissed.

After my last class, I walked to my locker and put back some stuff then I saw my friends coming.

They greeted me and they went to their lockers as well.

"Are you going to the field now?" Saf asked.

I looked at the time and nodded.

"Yeah. You guys wanna come with?" I asked.

They nodded and we made our way to the field.

I saw the football team running to the field and we made our way to the bleachers and sat down.

"They have a game this Friday. Should we watch them? I think it'll be fun" Cara said.

"I'm up for it if you guys are" I said.

"I'll go" Wyn said.

"I guess I am too" Taffy said.

Then, they glanced at me.

"I'm going" I simply said.

"Of course you are. Your brother and cousin are playing" Cara said.

Yeah.

I always watch River's game.

I haven't missed one ever.

Sometimes I go with my parents and my aunts and uncles and cousins and sometimes it's just me.

Sometimes I'm also withymy friends. It really depends.

I don't necessarily cheer for them because that's not something I do but I always root for them to win and I watch the games even if it's a minor game.

I just watch and wait for my brother.

The cheerleaders also came out and as soon as they looked in our direction, the guys smiled at me and the girls glared at me.

I ignored them.

Insecure witches.

I focused on the football team as they started their training and I watched closely.

This is already a routine for us.
