“Come on–there’s no time to process everything.” Tessa said, offering her hand.

“What now?” I groaned, already wanting to sleep.

“Now that you have access to Echo, you can become updated with the school events. The different clubs are recruiting this time. This is another thing that doesn’t rely on faction loyalty, but it could still lead to us getting points.”

I quickly stood. That sounded like the Elite I dreamed about.

Tessa chuckled. “Arden, you’re adorable. You suddenly came to life.”

“Let’s go,” I said enthusiastically, leading Tessa out of the door and out of our dorm. She shook her head in amusement as I continued to drag her.

Do

you even know where to go?” she asked.

I stopped in my tracks and smiled sheepishly before turning around.

“It’s this way,” she said, leading me to the labyrinthine gardens, where plenty of clubs had set their booths. Hundreds of freshmen wandered around the garden, looking for the club that best suited them.

I looked at the signs one by one.

“Elite Combat,” I muttered. That definitely wasn’t for me.

There were also a lot of sports teams, but then again, I wasn’t gifted with that physicality.

Just then, I stopped in horror when I saw a booth with a long line.

“ONS Club?” I said, capturing Tessa’s attention. It wasn’t the name that caught me off guard, but the vulgar photo of two werewolves in their animal form having sex.

“One Night Stand club, Tessa introduced. “They’re meant for having sex within their members in order to increase their points exponentially

I smelled a familiar scent and found Jaxon bypassing through the line to input his name in. The others squealed in excitement as soon as they saw him.

“Are you interested in-

I cut Tessa’s question off by dragging her away from their booth.

“Well, I’m assuming you don’t like that club”

I shook my head. “It’s a breeding site for infections, I muttered.

She chuckled, throwing her head back in amusement. “Do you have anything in mind then? We can join multiple clubs, by the way”

“I think I’ll just stick to one for now,” I said, and she nodded in agreement. Just then, her eyes brightened when she saw the Theater Wolves club

“Can you sing or dance?” she asked.

I quickly shook my head. “Not at all. I’ve never been gifted in those aspects. Do you want to join?”

She slowly nodded, making me smile. “Go then,” I said. “Til look around on my own

Tessa tilted her head. “Are you sure? I can just sign my name and we can go.

45 Free Coins

I shook my head with a reassuring smile. “Get to know the members better,” I said. “Let’s just wait for each other in the dorm.”

“Alright,” she said after much reluctance, “See you later then!”

I nodded and waved goodbye as I continued to navigate my way through the booths. Just then, I saw the last one at the very comer, with not much werewolves lining to sign up.

I read their sign intently.

Silver Quill Society. A

“Hey!” a lanky, tall man with thick–rimmed glasses and equally thick lenses greeted. “Are you interested?”

I grabbed one of the flyers and began reading what their club was supposed to be for.

“It’s an academic club,” he began explaining as I read. “We focus on increasing our grades and academic standing in Elite. We also join competitions within and outside of the academy–Math, English, debate. You name it.”

“We’re one of the most prestigious and exclusive clubs in the school.”

I turned my attention back to him, a small smile on my lips. I was never too good with the extra–curriculars, but I was proud of my academic achievements. I believed it was my greatest strength.

I never got to show it much when I was in high school because of all the bullying I faced from Jaxon’s fans and my brothers

supporters.

“My name’s Fort,” he introduced, holding out his hand.

I took it with a small smile. “Arden.”

“Where do I sign up?” I asked right away.

A wide smile appeared on his lips. “You can write your name here. However, like I said, we’re an exclusive club. So, there’s a screening for everyone.”

“Oh, I muttered “That’s okay. What do we have to do?”

“You actually came right on time!” he exclaimed. “We have one last seat left for the screening before it could start”

“Huh?” I uilted my head to the side. Fort placed his hands on my shoulders and began pushing me toward one of the buildings near the labyrinthine garden. It was one–story, but wide, and had silver intricacies surrounding it.

At the very top, the words ‘Silver Quill‘ were engraved in stone.

“Do your best!”
