“You still don’t know why everyone’s congratulating you?” Loretta exclaimed excitedly. “Professor Cain nominated you for the highest–level national mathematics award, and it’s already passed the preliminary review! You’re the first woman to ever win it!”
“Yeah! It’s incredible!”
I was still confused. “You must’ve misheard, right? Professor Cain didn’t tell me anything about this. Maybe it’s someone else with a similar name or someone who looks like me. Are you sure you’re not mistaken?”
“No!” Loretta hooked her arm through mine and declared confidently, “It’s posted on our department bulletin board. How many Omegas named Hayley do you think there are here? Who else could it be but you?”
- “And don’t forget, no matter how much you change, I’ll recognize you anywhere!”
“That’s kind of creepy,” someone joked.
Loretta brushed off the comment with a laugh. “What’s creepy about it? I want everyone to know I choose my friends based on talent, not appearance or status!
“Some people may look like high–ranking Beta werewolves, but they’re useless and mean–spirited. Others may just be ordinary Omegas, but they’re brilliant!
“Kirsty is the former, and Hayley is the latter.” Loretta even gave me a cheeky wink as she finished.
Her blunt comment sent everyone into fits of laughter,
Kirsty’s POV:
I walked toward the group, holding my books, and the first thing I saw was everyone laughing with Hayley
at the center.
I assumed Hayley must’ve told them about me “seducing” her fiancé. That had to be why they were all- laughing at me.
The sound of their laughter was unbearable. I couldn’t hold back any longer and stormed over, yelling, “Shut up!”
Shoving through the crowd, I stood directly in front of Hayley, my anger boiling over. “Have you said. enough yet?”
“So what if it’s about a man? So what if I had a little too much to drink and leaned on your fiancé for a second? Does that give you the right to spread rumors about me? Want me to get you a megaphone for it?”
I was so worked up that spit flew onto Hayley’s face as I yelled.
She wiped her cheek with obvious disgust, frowning as she stared at me.

Seeing someone defend Hayley only made me angrier. I glared back at Loretta, practically growling, “This is between me and Hayley! Stay out of it and mind your own business!”
“You…
Loretta started to retort, but Hayley calmly held her back.
She stepped forward, her expression calm but firm, and asked me, “Kirsty, what exactly have I done to you?”
I glared at her and growled, “Don’t act like I didn’t hear it. I heard everything. I saw everything!” Then I turned to the group and announced loudly, “Don’t believe a word Hayley says! It’s all lies!” “Yes, I went to the bar with a man, but only because he’d been chasing after me for so long. I decided to give him a chance. It’s nothing like what you’re all imagining. I didn’t seduce anyone!”
I paused, glaring daggers at Hayley before pointing at her and adding, “She’s probably told you I went after her fiancé, right? The truth is, it was her fiancé who couldn’t resist me. He’s the one who tried to take advantage of me!”
