“We’ll have to do something with them at the weekend,” Levi suggests.

We’ve only really met them once and very briefly; thanks to the increasing problems with the teachers, we haven’t gotten to know them as well as we would’ve liked, and as far as I know, Erin and Cole were incredibly close with Harry and his friends, so I’m sure that they’re all missing hanging out with each other.

“I’d like that,” Erin pipes up as she approaches from a short way down the hall, “we’ll have to meet up with them anyway to get the information off them.”

“Oh, that’s a good point,” Jax replies, “I want to check out some of the grounds around the school anyway.”

“There’s not really much out there,” Hunter replies to Jax, “I’ve run a fair amount as my wolf.”

“Still, it would be something to do,” I shrug. “Something that’s not staying in our rooms and avoiding people, which is what we have been doing since the teachers turned on us, and the students started to get confused.”

“That’s a fair point,” Erin agrees.

“Alright, we’re going to be late now. We’ll find Harry and get him to let the others know that if they want to, we can meet, and they can fill us in, and then we can hang out for a bit,” Levi says, “but for now, we really need to get going.”

“Don’t forget the rules!” Kai says, and then scrunches his nose, “I don’t like saying rules that seems weird, but you know what I mean!”

I chuckle and reach over to him, patting him on his chest, “Don’t worry, Kai, I know what you mean, and we know the agreement. We keep the Bond Lines open, and if we think anything is hinky, then we tell you immediately and don’t wait for shit to hit the fan.”

“Yep, that pretty much covers it. I prefer the use of agreement too, but it still sounds a bit odd,” Kai replies, frowning still, and I go up on my tiptoes to kiss him, effectively distracting him.

“Alright, come on, you can find a new word while we’re in lessons. We’ve got morning training to get to,” Jax replies, making the others groan.

“I wonder if Cain is going to be taking over our morning training?”

“It would make sense if he did. He’s supposed to be the best,” Ty replies.

“Well, there’s only one way to find out; let’s get going,” Mav replies.

“We definitely don’t want to be late. Cain is known for his harsh punishments if anyone doesn’t show up on time or take his class seriously,” Jett points out.

“Well, shit, bye, guys,” Kai says, striding down the hallway and making me smile.

Everyone says goodbye, and we watch them walk down the hallway and out of sight, each of us with a large mug of coffee in our hands.

Chapter Eight

Cole looks at us and smiles, “So, when we got back last night, I got Asher to pull out all of the books he had in his room and put them in the front room.”

“Why do I feel like there’s more to that?” Erin asks, sipping her coffee as we follow Cole into his room, and he secures the door behind us.

“Holy shit,” I exclaim, as my eyes land on the piles and piles of books all over the front room. “Did he even have any room for him in his bedroom, or was it just books?”

“How does he even have this many?” Erin asks.

“The library likes him apparently and doesn’t mind how many he takes because it knows that they’re well looked after,” Cole explains.

“Maybe we should’ve taken him with us yesterday,” I mutter.

“Yeah, but that was the Goddess, not the library,” Erin reminds us as we still stare in shock at the sheer amount of books in front of us.

“I’m going to need more coffee,” Cole suddenly announces, and I thrust my mug at him for a refill.

“I don’t suppose that he gave you a vague idea of what the book that had the spell in looked like?” I ask.

“Or even a spell to find the book that has the spell we want in it?” Erin adds.

Cole shakes his head, “Nope, well, he said there was a spell locator spell, but he couldn’t remember what book that was in either,” he rolls his eyes, “We’ve had words, and he’s agreed to write down any books, that he finds useful spells in so that if this happens again, we’ve got some kind of reference that means that we can find the spell quicker.”
