The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 515 - AN AUNT

Behind the girl, Oliver glared at Hope because of what she had done to his new girl, his chest rose and fell, filled with anger. And yet Hope didn\'t care at all of how he felt about it.

"You can\'t do that to her!" Oliver pulled Norah behind his back, attempting to protect her from Hope. But that attempt only made Hope laughed. How ridiculous.

"Why can\'t I? I just did." Hope shrugged her shoulder nonchalantly.

"If you\'re angry…" Oliver wanted to act heroic in front of everyone and showed them how wicked Hope was. He ended up being cut off icily and not being able to finish his words.

"Angry? Oh, please… you overestimated yourself." There was a glimpse of sinister smile dancing on her lips when she said this.

Before this confrontation was going south, someone came to Rossie and whispered something to her and stepped back. She was too afraid to talk directly to Hope at this moment.

"Hope." Rossie grabbed her by her sleeves to get her attention. "Your aunt comes to see you."

Hope turned around and spotted the confusion in Rossie\'s eyes. "My aunt?" she knitted her brows, the same confusion reflected on her eyes.

Because both of them knew, that Hope didn\'t have an aunt to begin with.

Who is this person?

==============

"Are you sure, you will meet her?" Ian asked her when they walked in the corridor, with Ethan and Rossie followed behind them. "You know that you don\'t have any aunt or relatives, right?"

"Of course I am aware." Hope rolled her eyes, Ian has been bothering her with this since they left the canteen. "There is no way all of a sudden I have an aunt."

"Then you don\'t have to meet her, she could be someone dangerous." Ian furrowed his eyebrows, still objected the fact that Hope wanted to meet with this mysterious woman.

"My curiosity wouldn\'t let me sleep tonight if I don\'t find out." Hope refused to mind what he said. Besides, she couldn\'t reject this meeting. After all the woman came here and asked for her, the teachers would come to fetch her if Hope didn\'t show up.

"You have to be careful," Ian grabbed Hope\'s arm to stop her before she could push open the door to the room, where the woman had been waiting for her.

"Of course," Hope said lightly. She patted Ian\'s shoulder and glanced briefly at Ethan and Rossie.

"We will be here," Ethan let her know as he leaned his tall build against the wall across the room.

"You don\'t have to do that, you have class to attend." Hope smiled sweetly. "But, I appreciate that."

After saying that, Hope pushed the door open and walked inside. She could still hear Rossie talked to her brothers, assured them that Hope would be fine before she closed the door and met her visitor.

This was a small room and was only used for counseling purposes or parents meeting.

There, sitting with her legs crossed on a brown sofa, was a woman with a beautiful smile on her lips. They were bright colored red that one would mistake them as blood.

The thought of it alone made Hope shivered, for some reason, this woman gave some similar dangerous vibes like Serefina when she was pissed.

"Hello, Hope." The woman leaned her back against the sofa and tilted her head. She was wearing a knee-length yellow lacy dress, with pearl necklace around her slender neck. "Nice to see you again," she took off her sunglasses.

"Do I know you?" Hope stopped behind the sofa and stood there, she felt it was necessary to put some distance between them. Just in case…

Apparently it was a good idea to have the siblings waiting for her outside, at least she knew if this woman was up to no good, she could always scream and they would come to help her.

Hope had been warned, since the festival was around the corner, there were many supernatural creatures came to this village. She had been avoiding roaming outside after the sun set.

Not only that, afraid of what would happen to her, Sterling and Sophia suggested her to skip the school just a day before the festival. Hope agreed to that.

"I don\'t think you know me, but I do know you." The woman waved her hand as a gesture for Hope to take a seat next to her. "Don\'t worry, I don\'t bite," she chuckled when Hope didn\'t budge.

"I\'m fine here," Hope ignored the mocking tone in her voice, since she was too absorbed with her gut feeling regarding the woman in front of her eyes. Hope felt like she had seen her somewhere. "Tell me, what do you want?"

The woman didn\'t seem offended by Hope\'s rude behavior, rather she looked at her with amused curiosity. "As expected of someone who was raised by Serefina."

"Do you know her?" Hope narrowed her eyes. The fact that the woman knows Serefina had failed on making Hope at ease, she could be a foe, since the witch didn\'t get along very well with many people. Hell, she didn\'t get along with other witches, let alone people, or shape shifter itself. But, still she was respected.

"Of course.In fact, we arefriends." The woman smiled sweetly.

"Serefina doesn\'t have a friend." Hope glanced at the door behind her and was about to run if this woman made a sudden move to approach her, yet she looked rather relax, even Hope\'s wariness didn\'t bother her.

"She has, I am the only friend of her." she shrugged, "I know she doesn\'t get along with many people, but don\'t you think it is rude to assume it out based on that?"

"I am done here," Hope didn\'t want to stay there longer, if this conversation was going nowhere.

"But, I am not."
