Chapter 3

Braxton-

Izariah, Izariah, Izariah. I replayed the name in my head as I pinched the identification card I held in my hand. I wanted to engrain the name in my head so I could focus all my energy on the one that made me look like a fool.

Where did she get off thinking she could talk to me like that? She must have a death wish. Never in my life have I ever been insulted by anyone. Not to mention she had the audacity to attack me and did not think I would retaliate.

At first, I hadn’t made a move because I had been both pissed off and shocked by her actions. It had taken everything I possessed to not let my wolf unleash his fury on her. Now, I think I should have just let him out.

I had to admit that she did intrigue me though, with her ability to not obey my command. She couldn’t be more than a low-level wolf, barely worth my time. When I interacted with her, I hardly sensed her wolf, which was probably because her wolf was weak.

Unable to figure out how she could withstand an Alpha command, I decided to let it go for now. As I looked at her picture, I couldn’t help but think she had a beautiful smile. Overall, she was beautiful, with her honey-brown hair and deep blue eyes. Yet, my hatred of her wouldn’t allow me to look at her any other way other than as an enemy that I needed to destroy.

I only needed to figure out how to get her under my control so I could make her regret getting involved with something that didn’t concern her. If she thought she could get away with it, she was sorely mistaken. Leaning against the back of my chair, I flipped the small card between my fingers repeatedly.

“Have you found anything yet?” I asked Sebastian, who was known as a genius and expert strategist.

There were four of us, me, Jace, Sebastian, and Lexus. Each of us was known as the Four Alpha Princes, but not because we were royalty technically, even though many recognized us as such. It was because we belonged to four of the largest packs in the world.

Our bloodline was strong enough to rival that of the Alpha King himself. Our families had a lot of power in the werewolf community. As far as my bloodline is concerned, I was connected to the Alpha King.

My father was the Alpha King’s cousin by marriage, although our families weren’t closely bonded with each other. That meant that I could become the Alpha King in the future if something were to happen. I had no interest in becoming Alpha King though.

In all reality, I wasn’t interested in anything other than living my life without all the politics involved. I would accept my role as next in line as Alpha of my pack because I could easily just pass the politics of everything to the Beta.

It wasn’t something I needed to worry about though, at least not right now. For now, I just had to get through the next two years of college and make Izariah suffer. Just thinking about it put a smile on my face.

“She is enrolled at the WSU, Woodland state university on the other side of the city. Her grades are remarkable, and she is at the top of her freshman class. She comes from a small pack a few hours away, but I can’t find much about them.” Sebastian clicked a few buttons on his computer and stopped talking.

Each of us had our own personality and we had our own strengths that made our group as impressive as it was. If we could create our own pack, I am sure that we could be the strongest pack in the world. Around campus, we were known as the Ace of Clubs, and we had our own private sector on the school grounds where we took care of club-related matters.

It might sound lame, but it started in high school. We hadn’t attended our pack high school like everyone else, we were sent to a boarding school so we could study and train to become Alphas. We immediately became friends and started hanging out with each other.

A random person had made a comment that we were all like an ace card. We might be different, but each of us excelled in our own way. Since then, we created a club and called it the Ace of Clubs.

None of us had expected it to become as popular as it is now. Carried on from high school, our reputation proceeded. We even found out that we had our own fan club.

Ace of Clubs was an exclusive club, meant only for us four members. We didn’t hold any official club activities, but we were still treated like any other club on campus. Mainly because we did contribute to the school in some way or another.

Sebastian was known as the emotionless whiz kid who had the ability to analyze any situation. He could remain calm under even the most intense situations, which made him a formidable opponent. He was also one of the strongest strategists I knew who could come up with a plan for nearly everything, as well as two or three backup plans.

Then there was Jace, who was my closest friend but my opposite. He kept quiet most of the time, but mostly because he was very observant. I knew he didn’t like the things I did, but he always had my back no matter what.

He would make a better Alpha than me, yet he wanted nothing to do with leading a pack. His interests rested on his art. Due to his loyalty to his friends and family, he refused to go against his father’s wishes.

Out of all four of us, he had the kindest and purest heart. Personally, I believed he needed to have more of a backbone. He would become an excellent Alpha, but his personality was more like a loyal beta wolf.

Lastly, there was Lexus, although he preferred to be called Lex. He was mostly into fast cars and fast women. He took after his father in that aspect. Lex viewed everything as a game and that everything could be bought with money.

His personality was the closest one to mine, other than he was just always happy, while I had a temper. I agreed that everything could be bought with money, but I also believed that I could get anything done because of my position in the werewolf community. Having a powerful family allowed me certain advantages.

Take the fact that I was attending the most prestigious university that was founded by my mother. It didn’t matter what I did in school, no one could do anything about it. Even the Dean of Admissions didn’t have power over me.

Granted, any time there was a problem that he believed needed to be dealt with, he would get my mother involved. She wasn’t someone that anyone wanted to mess with. My father might be the Alpha, but everyone knows that she holds the power in their relationship.

If I didn’t embarrass the family too much or do anything that could jeopardize the pack, she didn’t care what I did. My parents haven’t ever paid much attention to me. They only cared about money and power.

It was for that reason that I had the determination to destroy Izariah and force her to submit to me. I wanted to show her that she wasn’t as strong as she believed she was. A smile spread over my lips as I imagined what her face would look like when she was on her knees begging me to forgive her.

“Either she is part of some secret society, or she has kept a low profile over the years, I can’t find anything else about her from before she started college. I see she is on a scholarship and works two jobs but doesn’t receive any financial help.” Sebastian said after a while of him searching his computer.

“In other words, she is a nobody.” I chuckled.

Leaning forward, I was struck with an idea. “Are her grades adequate enough to be accepted here?”

“The education level here is more advanced, but from what I can tell, her academic level might be better than a lot of the students here. There is no way she could get in though because her financial situation wouldn’t qualify. She is an Omega wolf, which won’t be enough to get admission.” Sebastian responded.

“Let me worry about the rest. Get her transcripts and email them to me.” As jumped up from my chair and started towards the door.

With my plan formulating in my head, I left the clubhouse to make my way to the Dean’s office. Getting her into school wasn’t going to be difficult. Since the Dean was a member of my pack, I could force him to get her transferred to this school.

Once she was here, I could begin making her life a living hell.
