Chapter 1

‘’I don’t care.’’ I flipped my long wavy chocolate brown hair as I raised my brows while looking at Ismael as he tried to explain how their group is growing now.

I know that he is fully aware that he can’t force me to do the things that I am not interested with. He is convincing me to join their group. It’s a group of strong werewolves that dreaming to join the mercenary that serves Alpha pack in the battles, of course my father won’t allow that. I am persistent to say no to him because I am not really into these stuffs. Yes, I admit that I always get involve in troubles but I don’t want to worsen my father’s stress and frustration about me and his work being the Alpha’s right hand.

I’ve heard that the Alpha is terrifying too but I don’t care about that since I don’t have any interest of meeting him even just once in my life because my father won’t allow me even if he worked there. I’ve heard that the Alpha still young but very strong since he is the son of  the most rich werewolf in the City and I am also pretty sure that he don’t even care or give a damn for us. For sure he looked high for his self and considered us lower from him. I’ve heard a lot of things about the Alpha.

I continued sipping in my favorite coffee shake before going to our classroom. This is the University where everyone or all teenagers meets and just like the previous years of my life as a student of this University until now that I am already a Senior High School, we kept our selves away from higher werewolves and until now I don’t understand why.

We fear them, I mean they fear them and I don’t. Maybe they just looked too high to them that we think that we can’t go and enter their world. Or those assuming wolves just labeled their selves special, that is why.

The rich werewolves have wide connections, properties and businesses that they have the capabilities to send their children to a fancy University like this. If it’s not because of my father I won’t be able to study here but it doesn’t change the fact that bullies hate us. They bully those who looked weak, poor and just got accepted here in the school through scholarships. I am just a bit thankful that some bullies already stopped mocking me when they found out how violent and impatient I am.

Ismael still with me when suddenly a group of male students blocked our way while entering the school building’s hallway.

I raised my brows again and stared at the five guys trying to block us.

‘’Excuse me?’’ I uttered while Ismael is just behind me.

‘’You two for sure came from a lower class family, aren’t you??’’ A guy wearing an expensive looking jacket asked as he arrogantly crossed his arms.

I narrowed them and waited for them to talk again if they are really worth my time.

Ismael reach out to whisper something to me.

‘’They are some rich arrogant kids from Speed section, Shina. We better go now. They are just some Junior high bullies. They are known for being too playful. Let’s just go.’’

My brows furrowed about what Ismael said. As a guy who socialize a lot, Ismael for sure knows everyone around the University. He plays a lot as well since his family owns a famous shoe shop in the City. It’s not that big but enough for him to have stable allowance and gain more friends from upper class family.

‘’Maybe you are right, this is a waste of time, for sure?’’ I uttered and about to turn my back from those bullies Ismael saying.

I promised my father that I won’t create any trouble this school year and breaking it right after the first day of school sounds so terrifying for my father’s reserved patience for me.

‘’How rude of you to just leave while we are talking with you, huh?’’ Said with the same guy earlier but I just shook my head and drag Ismael out from that place.

We are about to find our way towards our classroom when suddenly a hand grabbed my arm and aggressively pushed me in the wall. My eyes widened when I saw the same group of men who are bothering us earlier.

Aren’t they going to stop until they piss me off, huh? I heaved a sigh as I watch the guy’s arm under my neck trying to lock me in the wall.

I heard how Ismael got blocked by the other men and also how the other student watches us annoyingly.

I stared at the annoying face of the guy again as I gave him a sarcastic smirk. This is really testing my patience, huh?

‘’Whoever you are, I swear that I don’t give a damn. So it is better for you to take your filthy hands off of me before I got run out of patience, dude.’’ I uttered lazily as I rolled my eyes. I just don’t want my father hear anything about this if I punch and injure this guy.

‘’Are you scaring me, poor lady?’’ He made a face as if trying to piss me more while giving some emphasis to the word ‘poor’.

‘’Well, I don’t know if you have a reason to get scare right now, but for sure later, you will tremble out of fear, dumbass!’’ I uttered with so much irritation as I aggressively pushed the guy that his head almost head the other guy’s head behind us.

‘’What the-!’’ He shouted as he walk near me angrily but it’s too late for him as I kicked his face after spinning so that it will have a great impact and hurt him more.

All the students from the hallway who saw the scene watches us with a jaw dropping expression.

‘’It’s her again, the violent student last year. I’ve heard that she’s just from a middle class family, yet acts too bossy.’’

I rolled my eyes as I heard some girls whispering behind us.

‘’Idiot, these men are bullying us for no reason and you call me violent, dumb!’’ I uttered lazily and glance towards the other men and I saw disbelief from their eyes. The other two from them already lifting and helping the guy that I kicked. Well, deserved. They are babies who grew up as a spoiled brat from the family they called upper freaking class! They really need to learn.

When I finally reached our classroom, Ismael needs to go to his room too so we parted our ways already and said goodbye to each other dramatically after the scene earlier.

I let a heavy sigh and entered the room. I saw some familiar faces from last year and some acquaintances. I just smiled to them after sensing that there are more judgmental than a friendly eyes inside this room.

‘’Hi Ashina. How are you. I will sit beside you if it’s just fine. I know how smart you are.’’ Camille joked and placed herself beside me. She’s a famous girl from Speed section during our Junior High school days and we became casual friends because we got into the same club before, dance club.

Just like the usual, everyone already started their judgments for the new faces and it was the most annoying part on the first day of the werewolves Universities.

I feel bad for those who came from lower class family and get bully right away. They even bully me before since I don’t share a lot about my family in the class and never mention to them that my father is the Beta and worked for the Alpha, I don’t even know if that’s counted for something who has connections in life because as far as I remember, I never even meet the Alpha and got a chance to enter the famous Divine mansion.

These people loved stereotyping and once they picked you as the victim, your life will be miserable.

My heart skipped as I heard a loud bang behind us. I saw how a guy wearing a black hoodie and an old black pants partnered with a ragged old shoes lie down in the floor. I think someone pushed him or took the chair while he is about to sit. I heaved a sigh and take my eyes off that scene. I shake my head while my other classmates keep laughing about the guy.

‘’I just can’t understand why are they being like that. They are doing these again.’’ Camille shook her head and chooses to ignore them.

I just hope that next generations of teen werewolves are not going to grow up like this.

The usual class for the first day of school started and different professors entered the room.

For the lunch break, everyone is all busy ordering foods from the canteen.

‘’So it was the both of you who got bullied earlier? I’ve heard about that.’’ Camille was so amazed and can’t believe the stories that Ismael brought to her.

We are eating together in the canteen and Ismael was kind of mesmerized by Camille and I just ignored how womanizer he is.

‘’Yes, I am about to punch that guy but Ashina already kicked his face and they ended up getting scared.’’ Ismael shared proudly like I’ve killed thousands of vampires. I shook my head.

‘’Mael, Camille is eating, stop bothering her, don’t you?’’ I uttered but he only gave me a pout and smiled to Camille again.

We continued eating when suddenly a group of girls waved at Camille and she also waved back to them, I just don’t like how those girls stare at me as if trying to question Camille for going out with me.

Another year for me to be as tough as a wall just to survive my life here from this University.

In the middle of us having lunch, we heard another loud noises again and of course, what are you expecting from this hell.

I saw how some group of men pouring some sauce into the head of their poor victim. I don’t even know why the University Councils allow this behavior inside or it’s just these brats have more connections that they don’t fear anyone anymore.

I can clearly see that it was some men from our class and that the same guy who’s wearing a hoodie earlier is their victim again.

The guy was just standing there like a loser. He bowed his head as he tried to walk away from the bullies when another boy pulled his hoodie reason why he landed on the floor and almost hit his head.

All of the students started to laugh again. I don’t know but my blood started to boil up as I heard their petty noises as if cheering those men to do more. I gritted my teeth . I let a heavy sigh and started marching towards those bullies. I can’t take this. I just can’t freaking take this!

‘’Ashina, where are you going?’’ Camille called me.

‘’Shina, come on don’t get involve.’’ Ismael said as he stood up and about to follow me.

The guy was soaking wet now but it seems like he still doesn’t care about them. Is he that scared or he is just too dumb?

Another guy is about to pour a trash bin towards the poor hoodie boy when I stopped him through grabbing his arm.

The guy was too stunned when he saw me. I saw playful smirks from their faces and it is making my head heat up more.

If I punch their faces one by one, I just don’t know if they can still attend the classes after this.

I was trained by my mother. She is one of the greatest werewolves when she is still alive. I remember how she tried so hard to train me to be an independent and strong werewolf even if my father was against from it. And when she died after being burnt and hunt by humans, she left us with honor and dignity for protecting our town that time.

That is why when my father and I moved here in the City and he became the Beta, I just can’t ask anything anymore but his safety and happiness.

And right now that I am seeing some people trying to hurt someone who don’t even have capabilities to protect his self is killing me.

‘’What the heck are you doing?’’ The guy uttered and still holding the trash bin while annoyance is evident from his face.

‘’I should be the one who’s asking you that in front of your ugly face.’’ I muttered with so much irritation.

I saw how his brows furrowed and slightly pushed me so that he can face me thoroughly.

‘’And who are you, little girl, huh?’’ The guy chuckled and everyone followed him and started laughing too.

I scanned the whole scene and I already saw the guy in a hoodie slowly standing up but the other bullies pissing him off again through slightly pushing him playfully.

 Aren’t they going to stop? Another guy started slapping the boy’s cheek playfully as if he is please while doing it.

‘’Hey, idiot, stop that and leave this guy alone.’’ I commanded patiently as if they will listen to me.

As expected, the bunch of men surrounded me while looking at me like a joke.

‘’This girl is really making me laugh.’’ The guy I am talking with earlier uttered and smirked.

He then started walking near me and patted my head. I crossed my arms and let him do whatever he is doing.

‘’You are pretty sexy and attractive, little girl, but I doubt if you came from an upper class family. I never heard anything about you and now you are standing here like you can dominate me and my boys, you are hella funny, huh?’’

I can’t find anything funny from the dumbass’ litany so I didn’t give him any reaction even if all the students are already looking towards us playfully.

‘’Your face is more funny, dude. You’re so freaking ugly.’’ I uttered while smirking, trying to piss him off.

Everyone started laughing about what I said and he looked very insulted.

I rolled my eyes and slowly face the guy who is wearing a hoodie. I slowly walk near him and grabbed his hand so that I can take him away from those bullies already. He is tall, and my eyes immediately lifted to his face after holding his arm. It seems like he can hurt someone through punching using his strengths, I can tell it right after I pulled his heavy arm, but I think he is just a softhearted boy reason why he let them bully him. But after my eyes met his gazes, I doubt my instinct that he is a weak werewolf.

What’s wrong with him and he let them bully him this way? Well, whatever. The important thing right now is taking him away here.

‘’Hey! You are so freaking disrespectful, aren’t you? Who do you think you are, huh? I bet you don’t know who I am!’’ The guy earlier looked so furious now while watching me.

It was very satisfying to watch his expression and even if I badly wanted to punch his face right now I’d rather choose to avoid this trouble first. But it seems like it was too late now and I pissed them already when I saw from my peripheral vision how the guy aggressively went to me and grabbed my arm.

The guy was so persistent when he pulled me and was about to lift his palm to slap my alluring face. But of course, there is no way for these men to touch my precious skin.

I was so alert that I managed to catch his hands and threw it in the air as I gave him a very nerve wrecking punch straight to his face.

‘’That was just a warning, little boy. Stop bullying students and mind your own business.’’ I said with finality from my voice but I can’t identify if they were threatened or just fuming mad to me.

Before living the canteen, I saw how the other guys tried to help the other one who tasted my fist. That was a great punch and I was expecting and ready for a fight with him, I am just glad that they stopped after that right away. But I am pretty sure that that was not the last.

I heaved a sigh and drag the boy towards the clinic.
