YM778.TV Chapter 50 - Cora
Pryce pursed her lips. She clenched her fists tightly around her skirt to avoid hitting Adrianna. Why was it that Adrianna always came between her plans even if they were only remotely concerned with her? At that point in time, she knew she wanted to get rid of Adrianna. But how?
Adrianna looked at him in shock. Her eyes were as wide as the Pringle she was eating. "Hell. No. I can\'t even think of playing a role, let alone the lead role."
Pryce was ecstatic to hear her decline Niiya\'s offer. She jumped in the conversation. "See, she has stage fright. I used to have a similar situation but I can be a good lead actor now. Niiya, please. Let\'s audition together," she pleaded.
Niiya shook his head and got up from his chair again to get a Cola.
Adrianna laughed at Niiya\'s arrogant attitude. She had taken out her notebook and started looking over her notes, ignoring Pryce\'s fallen face.
Niiya brought Cola for the three of them. When Adrianna moved her hand to grab her Cola without looking at where she was grabbing, she found that it wasn\'t there. Pryce had taken her glass. Adrianna shook her head and took the glass in front of Pryce. From the corner of her eye, she saw Keisha sitting with Liam and watching them. Adrianna immediately averted her gaze.
When they had finished eating the snacks, Niiya and Adrianna packed their bags and left, leaving Pryce alone. On their way to their next class, Niiya walked next to her with his arms around her shoulders. They excitedly talked to each other about who would get higher marks on the organic chemistry exam this time. As they hadn\'t been watching out for others around them, they bumped into someone who felt so hard that they had to stumble back as if they had hit a rock. Adrianna looked at the object in front of her angrily while rubbing her nose. "Don\'t you know how to walk?" she shouted.
But when she saw that it was Dmitri, she frowned. He was looking at Niiya with coldness in his eyes. He said in a slow menacing voice, "Don\'t walk like that. There are people around and you should keep your head up while walking. This is not the way to walk in a public space."
Before Niiya could say anything, Adrianna replied, "We will walk however we feel like! Please leave us and go. Your friends are all waiting eagerly for you inside." All of Adrianna\'s envy came out as she hurled rude words at him.
Niiya looked back at him with narrowed eyes and hatred written all over his face.
In his rage, Dmitri walked away without answering her.
Adrianna and Niiya walked to their class and then had their lab class. They were only free after four hours of exhaustive studies.
Since they didn\'t have any other class, Adrianna exited the building and went home without waiting for Niiya or Ookashi. These days, Ookashi wasn\'t showing up much either. She was always being picked up and then dropped off by Nate.
It was only 5PM in the evening when she reached home. Ed was supposed to come back the next day. She wanted to concentrate on her studies in the meanwhile, but also thought of practicing her magic, especially the skills that she still had yet to refine. Eventually, she decided to sit and study.

At Dmitri\'s place, his mother, Cora, was sitting in the living room when he returned. She was already angry with him for joining the college and neglecting his duties. She had sacrificed a lot to get Dmitri into his position. An acute and sharp woman, she had gone to all lengths to help her son become the supreme alpha. She knew he had the potential, and she wanted to take revenge of her husband\'s death. Her ultimate goal was to find her husband\'s murderers and slay them. Driven by hatred and extreme ambition, she had goaded Dmitri and often even played with his emotions in order to get things done. It was her idea to unite all the wolf packs. She had to use them to fight the unknown enemy, which she knew was too strong for her to fight alone.
When Dmitri entered the living room, she shot an angry glance at him. She said, "You have been neglecting your duties a lot. What use will college be to people like us? You are an alpha and you need to run not only your pack but also several other packs. You have to pacify all the dissidents under you. I want to know what you plan to do with them!"
"Mother, I am not in the mood for this right now," said Dmitri without waiting for her to say anymore.
"Dmitri!" shouted Cora.
Dmitri stopped in his tracks. His mother wasn\'t the type who could be easily dismissed.
He turned, crossed his arms across his chest, and said, "Mother I know what I am doing. Stop trying to force me to do anything right now. Give me a few days." With that, he turned and left.
