Chapter 154: Rejected

Cassie.

For two days, I didn't see hide nor hair of Lucas. In fact, all of us had looked for him, and yet… nothing. I was worried, which the others thought was crazy, considering Lucas attacked me, but in reality, I tried to attack him first, and so did my brother.

Guilt swallowed at me, wondering if he would ever be normal again. Even if he didn’t want me anymore, it didn’t mean I didn’t care to know if he was okay or not. Frustration filled me as I tried to focus on my current task at hand. The endless lectures on how to use effective magic was something so far from my thoughts, and yet my teacher’s rambling still echoed in the distance.

The moment the bell rang, a sigh of relief washed over me as I collected my book and moved from my seat. My stomach growled for food, considering I had barely eaten the last two days, and instead moped around like a pathetic loser hoping for the attention of one person who, at one point, couldn’t stand to be around me.
