Middle Child Syndrome - Chapter 178

Chapter 178: Ch 178: Teach her a lesson
*Crash*

Something fell down the shelf and broke. That brought Rika back to herself, and she looked down at the bottle that had fallen on the floor.

It also snapped Rika out of her daze, and she realised what she was doing with a blush on her face.

‘What the hell was I thinking? I…would have seriously called Emily if that bottle had not fallen and knocked some sense back into me. I lost my reasoning as soon as I felt the arousal.’

It was scary how much control Rika had lost from her small episode—and she had not yet been in proper heat.

She did not want to imagine how much worse her heat would be once it finally hit her full force. Rika was not sure she would survive.

“This is scary! I don’t want to lose control like this. I should look for more ways to stay a beta! I am sure there are more I can look into.”

Panic surged through Rika’s body at the changes she was feeling. She quickly pulled her finger out of her body, but her pussy protested when she tried to pull it out.

Her finger was not that big or long, but Rika’s pussy still refused to let it go until it got what it wanted.

Rika rubbed her clit with her other hand, and it was somehow enough to make her come. (She did not want to talk about all the fantasies she had about Emily and Damian in that short while and how much it contributed to her release. Nope! That did not happen to her.)

Cleaning everything up took more time than Rika expected, and the orgasm left her body satisfied and tired at the same time.

This time, Rika fell asleep quickly and did not wake until the alarm went off.

Charon got up around the same time Rika did, but there was no morning greeting or unnecessary chatter. It was all calm and quiet in that room as the duo prepared to head out.

Rika did get a mini-heart attack when Charon commented on the small laundry session Charon had laid out to dry in the bathroom.

“Did you secretly decide to do your laundry by hand last night? You should have tossed it all into the machine and washed it on the communal day.”

The comment scared Rika, but thankfully, she had an answer prepared for it that she could give.

“I accidentally turned on the shower with my clothes on. I put the top and bottom to wash, but I decided to clean the underwear myself if needed in an emergency. I don’t have enough pairs to last the month without regular washing.”

When she left her house, Rika did not bring enough clothes. But in her defence, she did not realise she would live in a dorm like this. So, it was not her fault this happened, alright?

Also, Rika had assumed that she would get to go shopping much more frequently than she did at her current pace.

‘I do not lack clothes! I did not have the time or patience to go out and buy new pairs yet.’

Charon looked at Rika with a pitiful expression on her face.

Rika had no idea what kind of misunderstanding had happened, but she did not feel she had enough brainpower to think about it.

“Let’s hurry up and go to our classes, Charon. I don’t want to be late for my first day.”

Rika dragged the older beta out of the room. She was also glad that this all felt natural and that she could finally relax and not think about anything.

“Hey! Rika, wait! I need to eat breakfast and such! Hey, let me go now.”

Charon was playing along with Rika’s actions, and it felt…relieving to feel this way. Rika had feared that Charon would not want to interact with her much.

But that was not turning out to be the case this time.

‘I am glad that things are going back to normal once more. It feels relieving. But I don’t know why I feel weird that something will go wrong. I hope it’s just me that is feeling like this.’

Rika did not pay much attention to her feelings, which was a mistake.

As soon as Rika walked into her classroom for her first class, everyone went quiet and looked her way.

Rika knew they were looking at her and no one else because no one was near her when she entered the room.

And those looks kept their intensity even as Rika walked further inside.

If anything, they became even more apparent. It showed that these people were judging Rika.

But she did not care.

Rika was about to put her bag down at her chosen desk when someone else came and tried to push her away.

“Hey! This is different from your seat. This seat belongs to my friend. Your assigned seat is in the back, right in that corner. Go sit there if you want to sit.”

The male was extremely rude to Rika for no reason. It was beginning to get on Rika’s nerves now.

“Does this seat have your friend’s name on it? I need help seeing it, and I can see a posted seating schedule. I have no reason to comply with you about this.”

Rika warned the people trying to bully her, but the duo did not care. They were angry at being interrupted and heard nothing else Rika had to say.

“What the fuck! We tried to be nice to you and teach you the ways of society, which is how you answer us. You deserve all the punishment you can get.”

The first student yelled before he tried to grab Rika and force her toward the door at the back.

But Rika was not in a good mood today and did not want to play around. If these people wanted a fight, she should comply with them and fight them.

That would make everyone settle down faster.
