Capítulo 226: Even

[Serenity’s POV]

I arrive at battle class just as the bell rings, but despite that, Maverick is still nowhere to be seen. Frowning, I find myself wondering where he could possibly be.

“Don’t just stand around,” Professor Alex announces. “Change into your battle gear and get out here.”

As she speaks, Maverick’s warning about a combat test taking place returns to me. However, didn’t he know that he would also be participating in this test? If he so much as failed anything, then he would be kicked out of the academy and wouldn’t be beside me anymore.

“Where are you?” I whisper as Professor Alex glares at me.

“Now!” He snaps, narrowing his gaze. “Why are you just standing there?”

“Sorry,” I grumble before turning and heading to the changing rooms, where the rest of the girls in class are already changing.
