ALEXIA

I couldn’t be more relieved when school hours ended, because wearing Killian’s hoodie was getting me more attention than I usually received and it’s never the good kind. I stopped outside the classroom, my eyes searching for Raven in the crowd of people making their way out of the school building but there was no sign of her, usually she would be out here waiting for me.

“Looking for me?” I turned sideways as Leo came up beside me, if I hadn't been too distracted, I would have noticed him approaching.

“Hi.” I said, returning my attention back to what I was doing before he interrupted. “I’m actually looking for Raven, something must have held her up because she’s usually out here waiting for me. Maybe she hasn’t left her department yet, so I better go look for her there.” I joined the line of students, heading for the exit.

He fell into steps beside me, adjusting his backpack over his shoulders. “Would have loved to come but I have practice. Tell Raven I said hi…” his voice

    ALEXIA Being the only human in a werewolf city had to be the scariest thing ever but my family had nowhere else to go after the war broke out between humans and werewolves, apparently some over-bearing scientist who thought they could just have an experiment on every creature they encountered.After capturing a werewolf they decided to carry out their so-called experiment which became the beginning of a raging war. Fortunately for my family, my father happened to be an old friend of a Beta whose life he saved and the only reason the Alpha let us stay here on his land.So far, it hasn't been easy. I had to ignore every snarl and growl hauled at me each time I went out on the streets, they don't trust us. We knew that but since we had nowhere else to go, we just had to earn their complete impossible trust!"Lex, have you thought about what I told you last night?" My mom asked, adjusting the pair of glasses she had on.I pretended to be engrossed in the novel I was reading just to avoid

    ALEXIA You will be fine, I muttered under my breath looking at the tall majestic building in front of me, several heads turned in my direction, a look of displeasure settling over their face. Just like everywhere else, it was clear that I wasn’t welcome here. Reminding myself to ignore them as usual, I walked into the building with my head held high. There were students standing around, chatting, laughing and moving about like they belong here—which they do unlike me. Fortunately the principal had been kind enough to inform my Dad to let me download the school map because gosh! The building was huge! it has this majestic ancient aura even though it was designed as a modern day castle that speaks of wealth, I instantly fell in love with the architecture. I gaped open mouthed at the people in front of me, is everyone a model or something? The guys were so good looking and let’s not talk about the girls! The fact that they weren’t paying much attention to me, allowed my gaze to freel

    ALEXIA I couldn’t help but hesitate at her outstretched hand. However, she took my hand and helped me back up, I still couldn’t respond to what she had said. She also helped me secure my backpack on my back so I had enough room to look at the map and my class schedule at the same time without dropping anything. "Am I really that scary? You've been staring at me like I’m some kind of predator, I promise I won't bite." She remarked, slapping her open palm on her forehead, an action that indicates her frustration. "I apologise, let’s just say I’m used to people being nice to me here." I finally responded. She looked taken aback by my statement for a second. "That should be a fucking crime, I see why anyone would want to be anything but nice to you, you’re adorable!” I blushed at the compliment. "Could you help me take out my glasses? It’s in my bag." I asked, swiftly turning around, deciding maybe I just couldn't see what I read earlier.She shook her head, gesturing towards the si

    ALEXIA Raven ensured that I had settled down in my first class of the day before she left. The minute she left my side, the sneering continued like it never stopped. I was tempered twice to pack up my stuff and leave but since Alpha Killian’s Dad guaranteed my safety, I kept a bold face, pretending they weren’t directed at me. Despite my parents trusting the Alpha in question, I didn’t, especially after meeting his son. Thinking about him has now become an intrusive thought, a brush creeped up my face as I recalled the way he had stared at my lips, the way his face darkened into a storm, making him look impossibly hotter, I shook my head shaking off the imagine and mentally scold myself. An abrupt sound of a fist connecting to my desk snapped me out of my thoughts, startled I looked at the girl in front of me, who looked like I wronged her in more ways than one. Her long blonde hair definitely gave me Barbie vibes and with the way she was glaring down at me, I could immediately te

    ALEXIA Fortunately Raven found me after searching for a while, according to her and after scolding me like an elder sister would to her younger one, she led me down the hallway, the same direction everyone seemed to be going as well. I assumed it was our next class even though I didn’t hear the bell that indicates the next period was about to start. "I was just bored of sitting in class alone." I told her, my mind occupied with how I was going to tell her about what happened between Alpha Killian and I earlier. “So, something totally crazy happened in class today." "I'm famished, tell me about it while we eat." She replied just as we entered the cafeteria and joined the long line at the waiting table. My culture shock was finding out that lunch didn’t start for them by noon but instead about eleven am in the morning, after like having one period. “It’s only eleven in the morning!” I couldn’t keep the bewilderment out of my voice, but the good news is, the line was moving pretty fa

    ALEXIA Probably sensing it was getting difficult for me to keep up with his pace, the urgent and hungry way he kissed me slowed, allowing me to breath for a couple of seconds before he picked up the pace once more. My hands left his shoulders to grip his biceps instead, digging my nails into his arms as pleasures consumed me. Oh my God! I’m kissing Alpha Killian, who has made it clear that he didn’t want me here! The implication of what that meant slammed into me like a force of nature. Despite not wanting him to stop, I didn’t know where I mustered enough self-control to push him off me, wrenching my lips from his before things got further than it has already. Panting heavily, he blinked making me blush. Lowering my gaze, after what just happened I didn’t know what to say or do except that things had gotten way out of control! Why did he kiss me? I shoved the question out of my mind before it caused me to leap into any conclusion. “Damnit!” He hissed under his breath, turning his

    ALEXIA I was aware of his eyes on me the minute he sat down but I pretended not to notice, why was he staring at me? Making sure I suddenly didn’t get up in front of the whole class and announce that he kissed me or he just got pleasure from the fear that comes with his intimidation. The sudden silence that fell upon the classroom brought me out of my thoughts and I looked around to see a teacher walking in. And her eyes were immediately drawn to where I was sitting like a magnet. I swallowed hard, bracing myself for whatever snarky remark she was definitely going to have about me being human, “You don’t belong in my class.” I felt myself instantly relaxed, out of all the worst things I imagined her saying, this doesn’t even come close. The class broke into a murmur at her question. I stood up with the intention of introducing myself to clear whatever confusion she might have. “I’m Alexia Jackson, I have this class ma’am—“ My words broke off by the sudden laughter that erupted and

    ALEXIA Fortunately, my next class has no Alpha Killian in it! and I was positive that my day will get better from here on, so I took my seat and like the rest, waited for the teacher to show up. I pulled out my note journal because this was the only class that held my interest so far , the history of werewolves…who wouldn’t want to know that? Actually it just history but it has to be history about werewolves right? “Is this seat taken?” I looked up at the sound, blushing when the voice turned out to be Leo’s, if that’s truly his name because Raven didn’t sound so sure. He was staring down at me with a playful smile on his face. “I don’t know…” I trailed off, feeling embarrassed for whatever reason. He didn’t seem to mind because he pulled out the chair and took his seat , his eyes still on me. “What were the odds of us having the same class after just meeting like a few minutes ago.” He glanced at the entrance, temporarily distracted by the teacher that walked in. “Given that we

    ALEXIA I felt powerless against them as they dragged me into the toilet but before they had the chance to carry out their threats, the bell rang, causing them to pause and looked at Izzie for directions on what to do next. From the dynamics of the group, I could tell she was their leader and they were her minions and unless they wanted to catch bullying someone…well in this case since the bullied one happens to be a human, I doubt anyone was going to bait an eye. “Let her go.” She ordered, her face set angrily at me. “Saved by the bell but next time you won’t be so fucking lucky! Consider what happened as a warning, a tip of the ice-berg because I’ll make life a living hell for you, if you don’t go ahead and tell Killian you’ve granted me your useless forgiveness.” I stared at her as water dripped from my hair down to my face, which resulted in me shivering from coldness. I said nothing, watching them leave one after the other, casually talking about what they were going to have f

    ALEXIA His hand left the back of my neck to cup my face, his lips capturing my upper lip in a very slow, sensual way. His movement was deliberately slow yet passionate as if he were whispering so,e unknown secret to me. Wrapping his other hand around my waist and using it to pull me even closer to his frame, a breathy moan escaped me when my pelvis jammed into his. My hands moved to wrap around his neck and as if sensing that, he stepped back slightly not breaking the kiss until my arms were firmly wrapped around his neck, locking us in a tight embrace. When another breathless moan slips out of me, his movement grows urgent, hungry and impatient, making my knees go weak. At that moment, it didn’t matter if he hated me or I hated the feeling he easily aroused within me, nothing else mattered but the feel of his lips on mine, the hungry way he kissed me or the gentle but firm hold he had around my waist. Giving in to the urge I had ever since he stepped out of the shower, I slowly wi

    ALEXIA Shattering the moment between us, he threw his head back and laughed. A rich, deep sound coming from deep within his chest. Being under the effect of his laughter, a smile spread across my face but then a sharp knock on the door put a temporary end to the moment. While still staring at me, he breaks away to answer the door and I stood there mentally scolding myself for my inability to control my emotions where he was concerned. I couldn’t help it, it‘s like each time I’m near him, there’s a universal force that seems to push those feelings past my defenses to the surface. “Here are the nesting materials you ordered us to get you Alpha.” I blinked out of my thoughts on hearing the servant’s statement. Well, guess someone cared more than they were letting me believe, I thought looking directly at Killian as the servants set the items down. Once they left, and with a startling realization that I have no idea how to build a freaking nest! “We should eat.” He abruptly announced

    ALEXIA I looked up from my phone as I felt the car slowing down in front of a shiny black iron gate. A few seconds later, the double gate started to slide open causing me to stare wordlessly at the mansion it revealed. I have never been to the pack house before or even imagined what it would look like but it doesn’t matter because my imagination wouldn’t have prepared me for the magnificent view in front of me. Wild plants stood at either side of the long driveway to the mansion entrance. I wanted to baldly get down from the car so I could absorb the view at a slower pace. We drove past a water fountain, a large wolf sitting at the top, giving an illusion of a wolf growling at a threat while the waters danced around it. Before we reached the entrance, Killian cornered the car into another driveway and soon enough I found out this led to the garage. There were guards in uniform as well as different varieties of vehicles I couldn’t even begin to name, some I recognized and most I did

    ALEXIA I hurried out of the classroom after school dismissal, an incoming text message from my phone made me stop abruptly in my tracks. A text from Raven telling me she’s waiting for me at the parking lot and another one from my Mom, letting me know she might not be home until later. Her own text showed it was sent hours ago, meaning it probably came in while I was at the cafeteria or in class. Putting my phone back inside my backpack, I was on the verge of leaving but was forced to a stop as Izzie appeared in front of me. I frowned at her, wondering what the hell she wanted while also taking note of the fact that she wasn’t alone. I flinched when she stretched out her hand, but then I noticed she was gesturing towards my backpack. I don’t know but things would be so much easier if she always started with words. “Do you mind?” I hissed, frowning at her. “I’m here to carry your things, ‘Killian said, I have to earn your forgiveness’ so if you want me to get out of your hair then a

    ALEXIA His statement hung between us in silence for a couple of seconds before I opened the door and exited the room without giving him a reply or even looking back at him. I made my way back to class, relieved that the mystery behind my project had been resolved. No sooner than I sat down, Izzie approached my desk making me think she had been lying about where she kept the egg. She handed it to me, her lips pressed into a thin line as if trying to suppress the need to say something rude. Keeping my eyes on her, I examined the egg, making sure there wasn’t any crack on it. “Thank you.” I muttered, glancing up at her when she still lingered. “Is there anything else I can help you with?” I passively asked her. “I can’t leave…unless you accept my apology.” She answered, pulling at her fingers while directly avoiding my gaze. “But you didn’t apologize.” “I’m sorry.” She replied, making a face that implied her apology wasn’t sincere and honestly, that part wasn’t so shocking to me.

    ALEXIA Raven was the first person I started looking for when I arrived at school the following morning, not that I have any other friend to look for anyone. After the way I spoke to her yesterday when all she was trying to do was help me, I could have handled the situation better than that. I stopped by my locker, a small part of me hoping whoever took my project put it back after experiencing some miraculous change of heart. Opening my locker, I was trifling with disappointment when there was no sign of an egg there. I sensed someone moving up behind me and that caused me to turn around sharply. I felt myself relaxed when the person turned out to be Raven. “Hi!” I said, a bit awkwardly since I wasn’t sure if she was mad at me or something. “I’m sorry for the way I spoke to you yesterday, all you were trying to do was help and I was being difficult.” I added the apology while I held my breath and waited for her to respond. “I understand, I’m glad you’re in a much better mood today

    ALEXIA “Isn’t there supposed to be an egg in there?” Raven’s confused voice broke into my shocked state. Her eyes widened as I slowly nodded at her question. “What? Someone stole your project!” Wow, thanks for stating the obvious Raven, I thought sarcastically before deciding I had misplaced anger. “I don’t understand, no one knows the combination to my locker and the emergency key is always with me.” I ran my fingers tiredly into my curls, causing my fingers to get stuck in the tangle web. “The culprit must have picked the locks, we need to report this!” She hissed, anger evidence in her voice. I nodded, carrying my backpack along as we went to the principal office to report the missing egg. Again, I tried thinking of anyone who could have done this and I couldn’t come up with anyone specific. It's no news that I’m hated here but who hates me enough to go out of their way to hurt me? My mind drifted off to Killian as I recalled the conversation I overheard the other day with th
