Chapter 37. To a Friend

SKYLA.

Royce smiles faintly and I wonder what’s on

his mind.

“It’s a pleasure to meet you, too.” He says to Leo, before turning to Azura. “You must be Luna Azura, it’s an honour.”

“Yes, in the flesh. Nice to meet you too.” Azura says, holding her hand out to him. He

takes it, giving it a gentle squeeze before he

lets go.

What a gentleman.

I can feel Azura’s huge eyes burning into me, and I turn my gaze to her. There’s a knowing look in her eyes and my stomach does a flip. I’m not that obvious, am I?

“I’m sorry to intrude, but I was unable to get through to you regarding your training session?” Royce says quietly, those

smouldering grey eyes now on me.

Oh yeah, training…

I can still sense Azura’s searing, unblinking gaze. That girl is some freaky shit, but I love

her. 3

“I can’t do after school. I have detention.” I

reply, shrugging casually.

“Detention…” His eyes flick to the open

books in front of Leo and he cocks a brow. ”

Let’s hope you don’t get another one. After detention then, I’ll wait for you.”

“Ok.” I reply, nodding.

Damn Azura, look away! 2

Royce looks at Leo and Azura. “I do

apologise. It’s good to meet you both.” He’s about to turn away when Leo speaks.

“No need to apologise, however, if you have some time after Lunch, could I borrow a little of your time?” Leo says.

Royce nods. “Time can’t be borrowed, but of

course, I’m willing to give you some of mine.” He replies lightly. 4

“Oh, that was a lovely line. So poetic.’ Kataleya exclaims as all eyes turn to her. She blushes, shrinking into her seat as she hides

behind me a little. 4

“Yes, I can sense the romance in the air.” I add, gagging, trying to get the attention she hates, away from her.

“Don’t make me change my mind on this.”

Leo says pointing with the back of the pen at

the textbook. 2

Royce smirks, “I’ll see you later then.”

He says to Leo before he turns and walks off.

I can’t help but glance at his back and that

ass.

“Ahem.” Azura says and I quickly turn back, raising an eyebrow.

“What?” I frown.
