Vetals High school

Chapter 2

AMBER'S POV

I screamed in joy and twirled, feeling happy and capable that I was able to pass their exams. At least, I was good in something, other than chores.

I broke the news to Alpha Gerald and June, and I must say, I was lucky that he allowed me without much stress. On the day I was leaving for Vetals High, I hugged and thanked my assistant maid for letting me know about an opportunity this nice.

The journey to Vetals High was a long one, but I didn't mind as the tall buildings and wonderful sights kept me intrigued. A whole new life was awaiting me and I couldn't wait to have a taste of it. I was finally free from the bond and shackles that Alpha Gerald and June put me in.

A few hours later, the driver got to the school and I paid with the little money I had saved for this day. The name of the school was boldly written and I could see students going in in groups, chatting and laughing with each other. Although there were others that were singles like me, so I didn't feel left out or sort.

"Good afternoon sir. I am a new student and here is my I.D card. I was assigned to dorm 12, but I do not know my way around here." I said, trying to speak like a mature junior year student.

The guard had a potbelly stomach and he seemed to carry it with pride. He collected my I.D and confirmed that I was a student of Vetals High.

"You see that gate over there? Go in and that is where the dorms are." He directed, pointing his hand to the next building that was next to the school.

"Thank you sir." I thanked him, smiling at him.

I went over to the building and then walked down to the dorms. I was really excited as I walked down the hallway to dorm 12 and when I got there, I opened the door slowly to peep inside.

"I think it's best you come in now." I heard a voice from inside.

Then I went inside and the aura that filled my nostrils were strong. I could sense it that they were Alphas. They were three in the room and two of them were looking down at me, like I was trash, while the other one was on her bed, with he earphone on and her phone in her hand.

"Uhm... Hello, I am Amber and you are?" I introduced myself, hoping for their names as well.

"I am certain you are in junior year. Don't you know how to speak to your seniors?" One of them said, with a raised eyebrow.

"I am sorry. I didn't know you are my seniors. " I apologized, lowering my eyes.

"It's fine. I am Diane, she is Julie, and that is Glenda." Diane introduced the others on their behalf, although, Glenda didn't seem interested in what was going on at the moment.

I had settled in and prepared to go to class as getting here today wasn't an excuse to skip class. I wanted to do well in my studies and if possible, be the top student.

After asking for directions, I finally found my way to the class. My new classmates were all talking to each other. It seemed like most of them knew each other before coming to the school. A few minutes later, the teacher came in and taught us a few things, she also introduced herself as Mrs. Nolan. I actually was excited all through the class, because I couldn't believe that I was learning in a conducive place, that was also far from the reach of Alpha Gerald.

My excitement and happiness was short-lived the next day when Mrs. Nolan came in and asked us to shift into our wolf form. 

"It's your turn, Amber." She said, with a smile.

My heart began to beat rapidly as I knew that I couldn't shift into a wolf as my wolf was weak. I stood up and went to the front of the class, with my head bowed and I was fiddling with my fingers.

"Come on. We are waiting for you." She urged, placing her books as she focused on me. 

"You can't shift into your wolf form?" She asked and the whole class gasped.

That question changed my fate in the school. My classmates started bullying me, making fun of me and teasing me. 

A week later, i went to class as usual and Mrs. Phillips walked in to the class with high spirits. 

"Good morning class, we are going to have a duo contest on the field." She announced, with a smile that revealed her nice set of teeth

We all moved to the field, it was a large filed and my heart was beating rapidly as I knew that it was going to be difficult to beat anyone here.

Mrs. Phillips started pairing everyone and then she paired me up with Nina, a mean girl in class. I could see that Nina was making her way to where I was, but it wasn't time for the contest and I knew that she was coming over to my side to say or do something that would hurt me, so I was moving away, stylishly.

I kept on moving until it was getting obvious that I was moving around.

"Now, I want everyone to be still. Let's watch those that are in a duo right now." Mrs. Phillips instructed, looking at us all.

I stopped in my tracks, but Nina had caught up with me before she stood still.

"Look who my partner is. Anyway, let me tell you this. I am going to rip you into pieces, because I won't go easy on you. I can't say because you are weak, I shouldn't try out my best potential. So, try your best not to be killed by me." She scoffed and left.
