TACTICS

Stronghold Academy.

It's been three days since Selena's encounter with the four guys she hated in school. After that none of them bothered her again. Walking on the school hallway everyday with scrutinizing eyes on her became ordinary but since yesterday she noticed an odd feeling of being watched. "Strange". She thought while looking at different directions of the school. She simply studied other people's behavior and the way they looked at her but she can't pinpoint who was watching her. The feeling of being watched makes her anxious and angry.

"Better not to show yourself or I'll dig those eyeballs out!". She cursed those people who makes her uncomfortable even though she don't know who they are. Then head to her classroom.

Professor Medina's class.

"My young ladies and gentlemen. Starting today we will going to have a visitor". He paused a while when he heard the buzzing of the students. "I know you are all curious and wants to know who he is but don't worry he will be here soon". He looked please when announcing their guests.

A knock on the door disturb them. When Mr. Medina told him to come in, it suddenly opened.

Selena can here a lot of giggling and oohhs from her back. She can tell they were happy more than surprised to see their guest. At first she was surprised to see the owner of the school himself. The tycoon of Clawed City.... LUKE STRONGHOLD. Then she ignore him after.

Selena heard a lot of woman adores Luke Stronghold and of course if they could, they all want to marry him. That's her point of view. Though she noticed he really is a very handsome man. He looks so neat and literally smell good. But Selena never dream of a man created so perfectly. She knows this type of man always belongs to someone else. She just shook her head and continued on her notes.

Luke was simply staring at Selena. At first he was enjoying how she seems to assess him. He really do dress well today. Hoping she would be interested in him. He's wearing a white long sleeve shirt folded in his arms and without a coat. A dark denim jeans and he uses his most expensive perfume that every woman likes to smell. But his minutes of joy was lost after he saw her shook her head and starts to write again. While the other female students are drooling over him. He can even sense a scent of lust in the air. If only her beautiful Mate gives him this kind of vibe he will be the happiest Alpha in the world. A word of hope runs through his head.

"Good morning. I will be here as a guest today and maybe sometime a part time instructor". He paused as he can hear a lot of young ladies giggling, it hurts his ears. "But for now don't mind my presence". He looked at his Mate again but no response at all. He felt a bit disappointed.

Mr. Medina's class is the longest, it takes almost an hour and a half. But for Selena that time is still short. This is her favorite subject, science and calculus. Everytime her professor starts his subject most of her classmates are already in dreamland while she is still wide awake listening with full of interest.

Luke on the other hand is sitting in one corner and simply staring at his beloved Mate. He is studying her appearance and gestures and finds out that she have this hobby of biting her pen while seriously listening to his Uncle. 'CUTE'. He thought.

The entire class is taking down notes. Luke is itching to see Selena's handwriting so he started walking in front of the class slowly like a true visitor and guest he is. He felt some tensions and also lustful vibe but he just ignored them. He stands beside Selena's chair and watched her write. 'Her handwriting are beautiful like an art. A real woman's touch. Small, neat and clean'. That's how Luke described his mate's handwriting. He smiled just watching her write.

Selena felt Luke's presence beside her but she tried to ignore him. She continue as if he is invisible. But the smell his manly perfume makes her heart skip a beat. Sge paused and hold her chest. She was puzzled by that tingling feeling inside her. "Am I having a heart attack?". She asked herself.

"Mr. Stronghold!".

Luke was so immersed in watching Selena. He didn't noticed himself already standing beside her for quite a while. Until a woman's voice calls his name. A blonde girl with an appearance look so ordinary in his eyes. He got a bit irritated for being disturbed by her but he can't show it. With heavy steps he walks towards her with a serious look.

"And the queen started to seduce the King". Selena said after finding out who called for their guest. "Thank you for taking him away, anyway". She mumbled.

Luke halt his next step. He clearly heard what his Mate said. 'Is she jealous or did she got angry?'. A thought makes him a bit uneasy. He don't know what to feel or do. He don't want Selena to get angry before he could persuade her. But the thought of her being jealous, it makes him happy.

"What is it young lady?". Luke asked politely to the blonde girl. He tried so hard to smile at her and he keeps on reminding himself to play nice because his mate is watching.

"Hello Sir my name is Quin. I can't seem to pronounce this and..... do you know what this means?". Quin was pointing at a word while looking at Luke's gorgeous face. She made sure she sounds very sweet and charming while asking him. She even tried so hard to wiggle her big chest in front of him. She knows all men likes big breasted girl like her plus the fact that she's the reigning queen of the school. She thinks Luke would simply fall for her.

Luke took her notes directly and tried to read it. He didn't bother to look at her face. He was reading what she wrote down and find the girl a bit dumb with a very ugly handwriting. He wants to growl in annoyance but he keep his cool and calmed himself. He pronounced the word right and told her what it means.

Quin nod in Luke's every word . Sometimes she answered him with an 'Oh' that sounds very seductive and sweet. After the short tutoring she gave him her sweetest thank you.

Selena can't helped but to listen to them. Quin is sitting behind her and the annoying noise she made didn't scape her ears. "What a bitch!". She got angry but she don't know why. She just lowered her head more and continue.

Other girls tried Quin's tactics but time is not on their side the bell rings and it's time to go to the other class.

Selena picked up her things in a rush. She's having a weird feeling of anger and it makes her confused.

"What the hell is happening to me?". She asked herself but can't find the answer.
