Chapter 186-The Quick Peck
Helanie:
Lamar and I had such a beautiful talk on the balcony. He fed me well, and I couldn’t believe I laughed even after facing that alpha. It was Lamar’s effect and also the good news Maximus gave me about my accomplishments. So, I guess everyone was seeing my strength except for myself. We fell asleep after gossiping about everyone and woke up for the first class with Maximus.
We were in the woods, wearing red tracksuits for the first lesson.
"What do you guys think is the worst weapon in my opinion?" he asked as he strode in front of the four lines he had made for us. Sydney and I were at the front of the two lines in the middle. Penn and Hans were at the front of the lines at the corners.
"Me!" Sydney held her hand up to answer the question.
Her sister had been very quiet ever since she was punished to do my chores. I didn’t make her do anything yesterday because I was feeling low myself. But in the morning, Lamar and Lucy kept bothering me, asking me to call Salem to the room to order her around and have her drop our beds.
I didn’t call her.
I wanted to stay away from that negative energy, but I believed my friends’ minions would make it happen after our class.
"Sure, go ahead," Maximus stopped before the two of us. His eyes would land on me, and a smirk would try to appear before he used his professional look and changed his attitude.
