Transfer Student
Kiba looked at the woman and the girl. The woman was in a blue dress which showcased her cleavage. She had long black curly hair that hung halfway down her back, eyes dark like the night sky. Her fair complexion suited her gorgeous face which was more than enough to entice any man.
The girl was no less gorgeous with her facial features resembling the woman. The resemblance left no doubt about the relationship between the girl and the woman.
"Mom!" Olly called out.
"Mom?" Kiba was startled. The woman looked far too beautiful to be the mother of Olly or the wife of Morgan.
"How are you?" The woman arrived in front of her child. She ignored the existence of Morgan and Kiba.
The girl, on the other hand, remained behind.
"I am fine," Olly cried as they hugged.
"Don't cry!" Morgan coldly ordered.
"Stop being so harsh on him!" the woman interjected with a frown on her face.
"Suzane, don't spoil him!" Morgan wasn't pleased with his wife's attitude.
"He is just a child!" Suzane pacified her son. Suddenly, she felt goosebumps on her body. Startled, she turned around and saw Kiba scanning her like a wolf eyeing a sheep.
She didn't know why but she felt naked under his gaze. It was like his eyes could ignore the existence of her dress and look at her intimate parts.
A current passed through her as Kiba's eyes moved down her body. She could see the lust glowing in his eyes and it made her shiver.
Suzane was angry but she didn't berate him due to the presence of her family. Thankfully no one noticed what passed between her and Kiba.
"I apologize for harming Olly," Kiba bowed towards Suzane, and continued politely," But please understand I have the best intentions. He addressed me as a relative so I only did what my role demanded."
"Relative?" Suzane was surprised.
"You can ask Olly for an explanation," Kiba pointed towards Olly.
"!" Olly's face cramped. Only he knows what type of 'relative' he called Kiba.
Motherfucker!
He truly wished he could bury his face inside the ground. How was he supposed to tell his mother and the rest of the family about Kiba's role as a 'motherfucker'?
"Anyways, I understand that I crossed my limits so as compensation, I paid for his treatment."
Kiba saved Olly from the explanation by continuing, "Truly speaking, it was he who attacked me first, and yet, I tried to be as magnanimous as possible. So I hope there is no bad blood between us."
Kiba rubbed his hand on Olly's head like a kind relative and then took his leave. Morgan and the others were left speechless. When they regained their composure Kiba had already left.
"He is a strange man!" the girl remarked.
"Loren, aren't you going to check on your brother?" Morgan asked.
"Is there any need for me to check on him?" Loren ignored the stern gaze of her father and said, "He got what he deserved."

Next day at Royal Heart Academy.
Zed entered the canteen while thinking of the events of the previous day.
"Are you all right?" Felicity's voice woke him from his thoughts. He noticed Felicity and Jessica sitting around a table.
"I am fine," Zed answered after taking a seat. He was having a feeling Felicity has something planned for him but he tried to be optimistic.
"Then why were you absent last week?" Her dark eyes were locked on his face to catch any signs of lying.
"Claudia's hardware needed an upgrade and I had to settle some bills," Zed answered. He has learned the art of lying with a straight face so he wasn't afraid of being caught. Sure lying was a forte of his Kiba form but his Zed from was not weak.
"Are you lying?" Felicity still didn't trust him.
"Let us order breakfast," Zed changed the topic.
He clicked a panel on the table to project the menu. The three quickly chose the items they wanted to eat.
Minutes later, the waiters brought pancakes, waffles, bacon, sausage, bread, cheese, butter, olives, and eggs.
The appetite of mutants was far greater than humans due to the energy requirements, so, the breakfast was finished in no time.
A few minutes later, Zed clicked on the menu to order coffee and juices. Just then, a girl approached the table. She requested if she could take a seat since other tables were full.
"Hm?" Zed was startled for this girl was none other than Olly's sister.
"Loren, please have a seat," Jessica answered Loren's request.
"Thanks," Loren helped herself in the seat, "There were no familiar faces but thankfully you two were here."
"Zed, she is Loren," Jessica introduced her.
"Nice to meet you," Zed greeted her. Loren returned the greeting with equal politeness.
"Ever since I joined the academy, I have been hearing about you a lot," Loren said as she clicked a panel to order her breakfast.
"Is that so?" Zed was surprised, "You are a new student?"
"She is a transfer student who joined during your absence," Jessica explained on Loren's behalf.
"Transfer?" Zed asked.
"My father's job required him in the city for a long time so..." Loren gave a short explanation.
"There are dozens of other transfer students all thanks to that fool who created a scene in the wasteland!" Felicity explained.
Zed gave a light cough. He knew she was angry as she has to welcome many of the government guests due to her being the daughter of a senator.
He knew that many investigators have arrived in the city with their families so it wasn't surprising for the sudden transfer students in the academy.
"The government is sure giving a lot of benefits!" Zed thought as he recalled the fees of the academy.
"Many non-government organizations' representatives have arrived here as well along with their families," Felicity continued further, "Their children will be joining the academy as well."
"Oh?" Zed knew there were organizations with a strong influence but didn't think they will send representatives and their families.
Felicity realized his doubts, so, she explained further, "Dad said that everyone believed it will be a good way for offspring to gain experience from this chaotic situation."
"Gain experience?" Zed snorted inside.
A Rank IX scientist has died here along with god know how many people but these officers think their offspring could gain experience?!
