Chapter 11: Adolescents

The rhythm of high school was like a well-organized swarm of bees, and the teenagers and girls who poured out of the classroom as the bell rang looked curiously at the strange three, and then poured into another classroom before the bell rang.

"Lola, Benjamin and I are going to look somewhere else. "Reipt High School is halfway through, and Zach and Benjamin have used their senses to confirm that Kyle is not here, at least not indoors.

"Oh, okay. Lola looked at Benjamin with a disappointed and relieved expression, and pulled Alice away.

"Well, it's surprisingly easy. Benjamin raised an eyebrow, thinking it would take some effort to get out.

Zach squinted at the back of the two leaving, and Lola whispered something in Alice's ear, and his and Benjamin's same doubts were solvedβ€”Lola was going to take Alice to the cheerleader's club. Short skirt beautiful girl or something......

"Did you find them?" Zack asked Benjamin with a smile, leaving the girl's careful thoughts behind. The sense of smell is sometimes better than the other senses, especially when it comes to finding people.

Benjamin touched his nose, "Found it, Kyle and Connor, both on the playground." ”

Benjamin, who had already begun to notice the two men during the game at [Fenway Park] last weekend, made a point of remembering their scent when he entered the lounge. I thought that after finding that report from three years ago, this matter would be over, but I didn't expect it to be used now.

Zach asked with some confusion, "Is Kyle still on the team?"

Benjamin smiled and walked straight in the direction of the playground, where he would be able to see it in a moment.

Upon arriving at the playground, the two quickly saw Connor in training. Benjamin pointed to the corner of the stand, obscured by a guardrail. Zach squinted, the sunlight dulling the vampire's senses, but he still saw the big boy hiding in the corner.

The two exchanged glances and divided their work. Benjamin walked over to the coach who was training the players on the side of the playground, first getting acquainted with the teacher and then looking for an opportunity to contact 'Connor'. Zach took one last sip of his coffee and walked over to where Kyle was.

"You know, if you want to keep an eye on him, staying on the rugby team is the best thing to do. Zach stood behind the boy crouched in the corner.

Kyle, who was only concerned about someone on the playground, shuddered all over, and when he turned around, he lost his balance, and some wolves leaned against the guardrail, half-sitting and looking at the person who suddenly appeared.

"Is your leg numb?" Zach crouched down and watched Kyle struggle a few times to get up, "That's what happens when you stay in the same position for an hour." Zach pressed Kyle: "Don't be in a hurry, here it is, I have some questions for you." ”

"Who are you?!" Kyle looked at Zach, "I'm not spying on anyone! I'm just here...... Just rest here!"

Typical denial, Zach pouted, "Zachary Grande, you can call me Zach." Lola's friend's brother, we've met twice. ”

"Okay Zach! nice to meet you!" Kyle, who is much stronger than his peers, struggled to stand up with his arms on the railing, "If it's okay, I'm going back to class!"

Zach didn't stop him, and it didn't hurt him to get out of here. Avoiding the afternoon sun and entering the house makes it easier for him to use vampire abilities. Zach followed a somewhat lame Kyle out of the playground stands and into the interior of the school building, the grogginess finally subsided.

"Why are you following me!" Kyle shouted impatiently as he spotted Zach following behind him. His voice echoed through the hallways of the school building. It's class time, and there are just these two people in the hallway.

"I just have some questions for you. Zach looked at the back of the young man who was still a little paralyzed with one hand and tried to walk faster, "Do you know anything more private, after all, my next question has something to do with Connor, or rather, the original Connor." ”

Kyle's body froze, and he stared sideways at Zach with an incredulous look.

Zach nodded with satisfaction, smiled and asked, "Do you have a place?"

Kyle stared at Zach's gentle smiling face, frowned, and was silent for a moment before lowering his voice and saying fiercely, "Stay away from me!"

Zach's smile froze, and Kyle continued to hold his leg and limped around the corner.

"Yes. Zach put away his smile, touched his chin, and frowned. The vampire is now wondering why Kyle would refuse, and he has made it clear that he knows something that can threaten Kyle, and has offered to communicate privately.

Grasping the key points of the other party, and then showing goodwill, is the all-purpose way to start the beginning of friendly cooperation. It was true with James, it was with Lady Quinn, it was true for three hundred or four hundred years of a vampire's life. But Kyle refused? Why.

Zach looked sideways at a row of lockers in the hallway, graffiti, stickers, self-declarations...... Zach shook his head helplessly, he thought that this time, the other party was a teenager, impulsive, stubborn, and full of rule-breaking ideas. Wearing Barton's last name and wanting to be a rugby player is telling.

Zach sighed, he didn't want to use brute force.

The figure of the vampire streaked through the hallway, and Kyle, who was slowly walking up the stairs, felt something behind him, and the things in his vision changed and flipped rapidly!

Something was lifting his right foot in the air, and before Kyle could struggle, a pair of red eyes attracted his full attention!

"Now, can you take me to a hidden place?" ”

Kyle's upside-down head nodded stunned, "Yes." ”

Outside the playground, a group of sweaty lads had already spotted the man who was talking and laughing with their coach. Thanks to this hairy guy, they can finally take the opportunity to laze off for a while.

The day after tomorrow will be the Beavers' second game of the league, and although they can escape the afternoon session with training, the coach's 'toughlove' has made the lads miserable.

"Hey, Connor!" the coach beckoned to one of them, "Come here! You've got a fan for yourself!"

The boys watched with envy as their captain left the team and ran towards the coach. On the court, the most attractive thing is always the quarterback!

"See!" The middle-aged coach left the two of them behind, and walked towards the players who had just slackened, and after the sharp whistle sounded, his thick arms pointed at Benjamin and Connor: "This is what you want! To be remembered! to have your own supporters! to be worshipped!"

This is the perfect opportunity to speak!

"Look!" the coach pointed to Connor, and then to the young man who was still on the training ground, "That's the one who is remembered! quarterback! star on the court! not you! Why not you?

No one spoke, only sweaty faces and chests heaving from wheezing.

"There's no one to talk to?!ha?!yes!I'm here to sue you!because you haven't worked hard enough!" The coach glared at the young men whose faces were re-energized, and waved his hands: "Run, rush, yes, that's what you want, look at him, break your limits......"

Benjamin turned his gaze back from the teenagers in the training ground, smiling at Connor, who was still panting and looking at him a little confused: "Nice to meet you." I'd like to talk to you about something, can I go to the lounge?"

'Connor' looked at the tall, stout strange man, and the temporary pass on his chest indicated that he wasn't from Reipt High School. Could it be some kind of college scout?" Connor nodded a little excitedly, leaning over and gesturing, "This way." ”

Benjamin followed him and walked to the break room on the side of the playground, "Just to be clear, I'm not a scout. ”

Connor turned his head in confusion, and the little excitement that had just risen disappeared, "Uh, who are you, sir?"

"Werewolves. Benjamin blinked, holding his hands on the young man who wanted to escape, "Keep going, Connor." Maybe I'll call you Ryan Tempest. (Run/gallop wind, the name of the Native Americans of the Federation, see the rules of Indian names.) οΌ‰

"What do you want!" Connor was pressed forward by Benjamin. Even without using the 'Alpha Skin', Benjamin's strength is much greater than that of this eighteen-year-old boy!

"Don't be nervous. Benjamin's footsteps continued, "just trying to confirm something." I've lived in Barton for many years, and I didn't want to get in trouble before, so there's no need to start now. ”
