“Okay,” I said, and we walked back down the steps as the bubbly feeling was slowly dying.
We passed Master Longwei, who waited in the lobby.
“Blake, Lucian. The boys’ dorms are on the other side. I’m sure you would’ve known that by now.”
A couple of girls giggled.
“Had to give something to my sister.”
“Sure.” He spoke and followed us with his eyes. I ran up the stairs. She was here. Her scent was here, meaning she was hiding somewhere.
Around six, we left for dinner. I found Sammy, but not Elena.
Lucian and I sat down at her table. She was the only dragon among all her friends.
The girls all froze as they stared at us. Their hearts beating like crazy and a mixture of sweet and musky scents, filled with Oxytocin reached my nostrils.
“Okay, you are boxing me in. What do you want?”
The girls laughed at Sammy and stared at us.
“She is here?” I whispered in Latin.
Sammy’s eyes grew. “I thought you said she isn’t coming.”
“I think they changed their minds. She is here. Her scent was everywhere in the Parthenon dome this afternoon, but I can’t seem to find her.”
She laughed.
“It’s not funny.”
Lucian chuckled.
“He’s like a kid on Christmas,” my sister teased.
“Just make friends with her, please.”
“Fine. What is her name? Maybe I already met her.”
“Elena.”
She frowned. “Nope, I haven’t met her yet.”
“Well, keep your eyes open, okay?”
“I will. Now scoot before you are going to give one of the girl’s a heart attack.”
I looked around. Everyone still stared at us.
I got up, and Lucian followed. “Enjoy your dinner,” Lucian said in a flirty tone.
“Where is she?” I groaned as we exited the cafeteria.
“Calm down, okay. We’ll find her, eventually. They have breakfast around six in the mornings. Maybe she had dinner earlier tonight.”
“Earlier?”
“Yeah, they served dinners around five during orientation.”
