No Other Options

Jules' pov

Immense shock coursed through my entire body as those words reechoed in my head over and over again. I found myself blinking a couple of times in disbelief.

A murmur went through the crowd which slowly parted until everyone was staring at me.

Color flooded my cheeks at once and I stiffened up at once underneath the sudden attention. They were all staring at me with shock and confusion on their faces, it was clear that neither of them had expected me of all people to be selected by Blaze.

Even I myself didn't expect to be picked!

Dread gathered in my stomach as the class head began to speak after awkwardly clearing his throat.

"That's settled then. The rest of the first set of students who arrived here, are gonna select their respectful roommates as well."
