Oakley Carson I can’t believe I gave that asshole my number. I guess it’s fine, because it doesn’t mean I have to text him back. Right? I don’t know how I feel about him. I hate him, I know that. But he’s my mate, and whether I like it or not, there’s a pull between us. There’s something budding, and the only way to stop it is to reject him. But I don't want to do that. Yet anyways. I want to try, because he’s my chance at happiness, at forever. Training starts at fifteen, so I quickly change and make my way to the pack house. I slip from my car, and see Giana right away. She gives me a smile, and loops her arms with mine. “How are you doing?” “I’m okay” I nod, even though stress is eating at my insides. Even though I can't stomach food right now. “How are you?” “Eh” she shrugs, staying close to me. “Tired, but good. Working with Ford on the project is exhausting. He’s so frustrating. I can’t believe you liked him” “It was fleeting.” I counter, squeezing her arm. “He’s be

Axton Walker I apologized with my friends earlier today, and it feels good. It feels good to take the first step in the right direction. There’s many, many more steps I need to take though. I’m making my way to the bathroom when I spot Ford and Oakley at Oakley’s locker. I step back, going back around the corner to listen. Eavesdropping, whatever I'm doing. “I told you, I’m done, Ford. One you’re a coward, and two im just not interested anymore” “Oaks, I said I was sorry. Those guys are hard to be friends with. I just wanted to prove to them that we're not doing anything. It was to protect you” Ford’s voice is pleading. “I’m not interested anymore, Ford. Back off” then a loud thud follows. I peak out, and Ford has Oakley pinned to the lockers, and his lips are on his. My heart clenches, and fury builds quickly. But then it doubles, when I see Oakley is trying to push Ford off. That he doesn’t want him. Then my instincts kick in, and I'm jogging over, pulling Ford off him an

Oakley Carson When I got home after the ceremony my moms cornered me and everything just came out. From the bullying, to the abuse, to the fact he’s my mate, to my eating disorder resurfacing. Everything. I cried in a ball on the floor for an hour while my moms held and rocked me. Then we all stayed on the couch for the rest of the weekend. We ate lots of ice cream, and chinese food. I actually ate my feelings, which I never can do. I was in so much distress my mind shut down, and left me numb. Now it’s Monday morning, and I'm going through the motions of getting ready for school. I showered, and got dressed. I make my way downstairs into the kitchen where mom is making breakfast. “If you wanna miss a couple days, you could” Mama offers, sipping her coffee. “No, i have a lot to stay on top of so i can graduate top of my class” i murmur, grabbing a bottle of water. Cracking the seal, I chug half in one go. I cried a lot this weekend. “I’m making an omelet with veggies. It’

Axton WalkerOakley fucking Carson is my mate.I've never been so fucking happy. Although there's a lot of damage, and a lot to sort through. The boy I've been obsessed with for the last four years is actually mine. Well, if I can fix it.Well I will fix it. Oakley deserves a mate that will fix this mess. So I stick to my word, and give him space tonight, and well the rest of the weekend. But Monday morning? I'm coming on full swing to fix this.He's all i've ever wanted, and all ill ever need. I just have to prove it. And i will. By the time i make it back to the pack house, my new home, Oakley's gone. Cassandra is in the parking lot, pacing near my sedan.I make my way to her, raising my brows. "Hey""Oh there you are!" She instantly throws herself into my arms. My usual reaction, the one I have been doing for so long, is to wrap her up. But not anymore. Because Oakley is mine, and that's all that matters.I slowly detangle her from me, taking a small step back. Her brows furrow, co

Oakley CarsonToday's the day. My birthday, and my ceremony. I'm super excited, but nervous. Things have been weird at school. Axton and his friends have left me alone, and when one of them tried to pick on me, Axton put a stop to it. It was weird, to say the least.I take a quick shower, and get changed into jeans and a loose hoodie. It's not cold, but i'm comfortable in my oversized hoodie, always.Mom and mama are waiting downstairs by the time I come down. They're sitting there with small smiles on their faces. "Ready babe?" Mom asks, looping her arm with mine."I guess. A bit nervous honestly "I murmur, and mom nods."I was too. But then I met mama, and it was the best thing ever. It'll be good babe" she squeezes my arm, and mama loops her arm with my other one. She holds my arm close to her body, and nods."Mom's right, it was the best day of my life" Mama smiles."Yeah yeah, true love" I give a little smile.We drive to the pack house separately, in case I want to go somewhere

Axton Walker TW:This chapter contains homophobic slurs. "Want to get something to eat?" Cas asks, as I pull my bag over my shoulder. Oakley just left from our work session. Cas interrupted me trying to get Oakley to get food with me."Nah. I gotta head home and catch up on some homework sweets. I'll catch ya later though yeah?" I place a gentle kiss on her head, before stepping away."Oh okay. I'll just go with the girls then" she smiles, and that's that. We go our separate ways. The drive home is short, and sad. I want to be around Oakley all the time now. It's getting worse.My birthday is soon, and I'm worried that i won't be able to connect with my mate. How am I supposed to mate with someone when I have such an intoxicating obsession with someone else?I don't know. Maybe it'll go away, maybe my obsession is just because he's the only outed kid at school? I don't know. I stopped questioning it years ago.Once I get home, I make my way inside. Mom's here, somewhere. But dads ca

Peyton WilliamsLast weekend, Zeke stayed the night. We fell asleep cuddling, and it was great. I had a bit of an issue, but he didn't say anything about it. I kept my hands to myself, mainly because I never wanted him to feel uncomfortable.But also because I don't want to rush anything. Normally mates have marked and mated by now, but my situation is different. So I have to look at it differently. Zeke's been a lot more touchier with me since our cuddle session. We haven't hung out alone, but we've gone to the cafe a couple of times with Nolan and Sam.It feels like double dates to me, but I'm sure it doesn't to him. Sam knows something I don't, she says she doesn't know anything, but she knows something.Alpha Dallas is still highly advising we move Zeke into the pack house soon. I'm just not sure how to bring it up. Or tell him, and I'm worried that once I do tell him I'll lose everything we are building.But for his safety, we do need to tell him soon. I think having Nolan and S

Zeke Hayes Ava has been short with me all week. She says she's not mad, but she barely talks to me now. Cam talks to me, but we aren't as close as I was with Ava. I'm sitting at lunch, and she's flat out ignoring me."Av, are you going to talk to me?" I ask, and her eyes land on me. She rolls her eyes and turns toward Cam. "I said I didn't mean to, you're ignoring me on purpose. There's a difference.""Whatever Zeke, why don't you go sit with your real friends' ' she snaps, her tone cold and she won't look at me. I huff and push from the table to my feet."Whatever" I grumble, and I start to make my way to an empty table. Someone grabs my arm and I hope to god it's Ava, but it's not."Want to sit with us?" Sam asks, and I slowly nod."Do you mind?""No, not at all. Come on" she loops her arm with mine, tugging me along with her. We make it over to the table, and she glares at Nolan. He chuckles, but gets up moving. He sits across from the empty seat, next to Peyton. Sam takes the sea

Peyton Williams"So it went well?" Nolan asks, as we make our way to the pack house. We just finished our Monday training. Now I gotta shower and get ready for school. Where I get to see my little blonde mate. Can't fucking wait."Yeah, we've been texting. We exchanged numbers yesterday. He hasn't texted me yet today "I say as we climb the back steps."It's also 6:30 in the morning" Nolan says "But I'm happy to hear you guys have been talking""Me too" I mumble as we head to the showers. I take a quick shower, then I get dressed in my usual jeans and t-shirt. I do wear a hoodie because it's chilly out. Breakfast is uneventful, thankfully and I'm pulling my jeep into the school parking lot in no time.Nolan and Sam pull up right after me, and I check my phone, seeing a text finally.Zeke: i can't believe u were up at 5amZeke: i got up 20 minutes agoPeyton: Are you at school?Zeke: You, u?I glance up from my phone, looking at the usual spot he stands at with his friends. I see Ava an

Zeke HayesI'm currently walking to Peytons, to study with Sam and Nolan. It was about a half hour walk from my house, so I started the walk around 12:30, sense we said 1.I have my headphones in, and I'm listening to Taylor Swift's album, folklore. I dont care what you say, im a fucking swiftie. I love her music, and her lyrics are absolutely genius.I'm not too excited to study with Peyton, he's moody when he does talk to me, which is rare. He just stares at me, which is so weird. But the walk goes quick, Peyton said to text him when i get there. I see the gates from where I'm at, so I pull up instagram and send a quick text.When I get close to the gates, I see a couple of guys guarding the entrance. Seems a bit extreme if you ask me, but to each their own. The gates open, and Peyton walks through them. His brown eyes land on me instantly, and it feels so fucking awkward, because weve hardly talked."Hey" I say, eating up the distance between us."Hey" he sends me a half smile, an

Peyton Williams"Do you think it was his dad?" Sam asks softly, flickering her eyes between Nolan and I. Zeke just left a half hour ago, we spent the day studying and ended up watching a movie before he had to go home."I don't know babe," Nolan mumbles, pulling her into his chest. Sam feels for people, and when she's close to someone, she gets really worked up over anything they have to go through. She feels like she's going through it too, and it honestly is what makes her such a great friend. She makes sure you're never alone, and doesn't make it about her. But right now she is definately hurting.She's taking a liking to Zeke, which is rare for her. She is only so close with Nol, Nicole, and I. She says it feels like her emotions get interconnected with ours. Zeke was definately off, he seemed sad. In pain, his eyes were glossy, and he was so antsy."Has Alpha said anything? My mom will let him stay here" she says, and she's serious. She'd take anyone in if it meant keeping them s

Zeke HayesI came clean to Ava, about my dad. I lied, but i told most of the truth. It's a friday night, and i was invited to dinner with Cam and Ava. Ava should be here any minute, and now i have to sneak out because my dad's in a mood. I push open my door, and listen for any sound. I slip out after making sure I have my wallet and phone.I walk down the stairs quietly, peaking my head out to see my dad. I hear him in the kitchen, so i slip my shoes on. Then I'm out the door as quietly as possible. Ava's sedan is in front of my house, with Cam in the passenger side.I push a fake smile on my lips, because my nerves are getting to me. I walk to the sedan, climbing in the back."Hey" I say as I buckle up."Hey" they say in unison as Ava starts driving to the diner."All good?" Ava asks, and I know what she's implying."Yeah. Starving "I lie, and she smiles."Me too," Cam says dramatically, whining.The drive to the diner is quick, music is playing and we have short convos here and the
