Chapter One

Alexandria

As I get ready for another glorious day at school, I just wish I could NOT go at all, but I know I need to complete school, I hate school, I wish I could just be done with it already but thankfully this is my senior year, and I won't have to put up with it for much longer.

As I get ready for school, I find my favorite Black skinny jeans that hug my curves just right, I’m not a big girl but I’m not super skinny either, I have a nice size butt and I find my grey tank top that hugs my chest just right I have a bigger chest than most, a lot of the other girls at school are on the smaller size and they always make snarky comments about how mine are fake and how I had mine done to get attention from all the guys but mine are as natural as they come. While I finish getting ready for school, I find the last touch to my outfit which would be my most favorite hoodie. I manage to find my hot pink Converse shoes as well.

Usually, I would do something with my hair but today I just feel like letting it go, my hair is long to about the bottom of my back and needle straight, and a very light blonde, almost like platinum blonde but it has some darker tones to it and it almost looks like I have low-lights throughout my hair. I really do love my hair, that I would say is my favorite thing about myself.

But anyway, back to why I hate school so much. I just can’t handle the way the nasty girls at school look at me, I try to keep to myself and mind my business, but you know how girls at school can be, especially when they think they are queen bees, but that’s the life in high school right? Well, I guess I better get going before I’m late.

As I head down the stairs towards the kitchen to grab a quick bite to eat, I hear my parents in the kitchen I manage to hear whispers and some comments about my birthday.

“Her birthday is coming up.”

What on earth are they talking about? Are they must be planning something for my birthday? I will have to put a stop to that, I don’t want any sort of party, I just want my birthday to be like any regular day, but since it is my Eighteenth birthday and that is the day, I get to find my mate, my parents will make it a huge deal.

As I’m leaning against the wall just outside the kitchen, I strain my ears to see if I can catch anything else but, since it seems, they have stopped talking, maybe they sensed me nearby.

“Hey mom, hi dad, what’s going on?”

“Oh, hey sweets, how did you sleep?” My mom is the first to greet me as I walk into the kitchen.

“Good, I was just on my way to school, but I wanted to grab a quick bite before I head out.”

Dad makes his way to me and hand me a burrito and a coffee.

“Good idea, I made your burrito with all your favorite fixins’ inside.”

“Thanks, Dad, I’ll just add a bit of sweetness to my coffee and head out.”

After grabbing my coffee and burrito I make my way to the front door.

“Bye guys have a good day, I’ll see you after school.”

“Bye sweetheart.”

My parents say together as my dad makes his way to the door as well, and my mom makes her way around the kitchen to tidy up.

As I make my way to my car in the driveway, I hear a car coming to make the way right past my home. I turn and look out to the main road, I see a black with white trim BMW i8 and not being able to see who is inside due to the fact the windows are all blacked out, but I assume because it is such a nice car, I assume it must be none other than James Benton, the most popular guy in school. He is such an ass; He thinks just because his dad is the Alpha of the pack and how he is going to be the future Alpha that he thinks he can do whatever he wants and act however he wants.

Goddess, I can't wait until graduation, it’s going to be nice to be able to leave this town and find my way and get away from James and his groupies and miss Queen Bee, Jackie.

She is just as bad as James, maybe that’s because they have been together since sophomore year. By the time I make it to school I have just enough time to get to my locker and quickly grab my books for the first period. But low and behold I get stopped by Jackie and her group of wannabes.

“Look who it is ladies, it's the fat midget Allie.”

I’m not exactly short but I am smaller than a lot of other girls I go to school with. Being 5’2” isn’t too small but when all the other girls are 5’5” and taller, they seem to think if you are shorter than most people you must be some sort of runt of the pack or something, and it doesn’t really help when all the tall, skinny girls that look like twigs call you fat, which I am far from being fat, I just have a nice big butt and I am a bit more top-heavy in the chest area than most girls but they all seem to think I am just fat. I just try not to let it get to me.

“My name is Alex, not Allie, and What do you want Jackie?”

“I just want to make sure you know to stay in your lane bitch, and you need to stay away from James!”

“Great. Got it! Can I go now?”

“No! Are you giving me attitude now? Are you trying to challenge your future Luna?”

“Are your serious right now? I could care less about being Luna, I don’t even want James, and even if I did want to be Luna, it wouldn’t be with James.”

“Are you stupid? You better watch the attitude freak! And you better stay away from James! HE IS MINE!”

“Good. Great. I don’t care.”

I roll my eyes and step to the side to walk around her and her little groupies. Just as I am a few steps away from my locker I trip over something and take a tumble right in front of none other than James and his group of friends. My backpack goes sliding right into his feet and I hear him laughing with his friends. When I look up and see he has a smirk on his face he looks around then looks down to me.

“Looks like you need help learning how to walk.”

I have no words to respond, so I just pick myself up off the floor and turn to walk away, As I turn to step around him and his friends, I hear a murmur and they all laugh like it was the best joke they ever heard, when I turn to glare at James, he is just standing there staring at me. But I just continue my way to my locker and switch out my books while I am standing at my locker, I feel someone come up behind me and wrap me up in a hug and can’t help but smile because I know exactly who this person is, and I feel so much better knowing that she is here with me to endure all this hell of school with me.
