Unwanted By The Beta CHAPTER EIGHTY SIX - FISHING FOR INFORMATION
Jayla"A dog?" Shane asks as if I just said I want a pet lion instead of an ordinary puppy."Yeah," I say, nodding in confirmation.But he still looks at me incredulously after that which makes me annoyed. "What!" I say in exasperation."No, it is nothing. I am just not able to grasp how you will take care of another living creature when you can barely remember to even feed yourself."I don't know if there is humor in his tone or it is just genuine worry for my mental health but l hit him nonetheless because of his words."Shut up," I mutter. "I don't forget to feed myself, okay? I love food so much. I didn't grow this," I tap my tummy which has no muscles, by the way, "just like that."He rolls his eyes and says, "Yeah, right. And all you eat is unhealthy junk food. You need to be on a more nutritious diet instead of eating all that carb.""Says the person who ate an entire box of chocolates this afternoon," I retort almost immediately."But my case is an exception. I work out," he s
Unwanted By The Beta CHAPTER EIGHTY SEVEN - THE FIGHT
JaylaI am really glad that Shane cares about me. But I can't get him to go against the pack for whatever reason, because until the pack trusts him, and also he is my only and closest source to know what is going on in there."Sure," he replies immediately. But then he pauses, raising an eyebrow in puzzlement. "Why do you even want to come?" he asks me out of curiosity and I shrug in a nonchalant manner."I don't know… I feel like I should just go with you," I reply him vaguely and he gives me a weird look."Alright," he murmurs as we reach the gates of the house I once lived in for a short time before the hardest days of my life came knocking.I gulp, feeling a little anxious to go inside. I didn'teven think of it before but when I go inside, I will be seeing all those people whom I have been trying to avoid since I got back from that rogue pack.Jessica has been trying to contact me since then. She apologized and is still trying to get me to forgive her since the time l returned, b
Unwanted By The Beta CHAPTER EIGHTY EIGHT - PAIN AND TEARS
JaylaThere are some examples of things or people which are hardcore enemies to each other. Voldemort to Harry Potter, Coke to Pepsi, jealousy to relationships and so on. The biggest of which is me to my alarm clock.No one in the world can actually say they enjoy waking up early to go to school. Someone can be an early bird for all I care, but when it comes to waking up for school, we all hate it.And obviously, I am no exception. Only God knows how much I want to throw my alarm clock across the room every morning, but my alarm clock is my phone and my parents aren't going to buy me a new one if I break it.I groan, curse and complain before I get out of my bed in the morning, just like I always do. Today, even more than any day, I have a stronger reason not to want to go.First of all, I know that the teachers are going to give me pitiful and curious looks as if l just escaped death. I mean, I really just escaped death but they don't have to remind me of that every single second.S
Unwanted By The Beta CHAPTER EIGHTY NINE - WHY THE HATE
Jayla Isn't it funny how you will tell yourself that people's words can't hurt you and you will feel that you are so strong, but then when they say something hurting, you will be reduced to abawling mess again?Maybe l am just weak. Maybe I am still weak. I have to be, to let them affect me so much that I even threw up. I have to be really weak.I play their words in my head over and over again and I am a hundred person sure that their conversation was all about me. And I am also a hundred percent sure that they despise my guts above everything.But I don't remember doing anything bad or mean to them. I don't remember doing anything that would make them hate me this way but they do.The kind of hate that makes you blind to everything and the only thing you can only think about is hurting the other person.I am well acquainted to that hate to know how toxic it is. Yet I choose to live in that toxicity.When you tell the world that you have been hurt and you show them your scars, you
Unwanted By The Beta CHAPTER NINETY - A NEW FACE
Jayla"Eddie," I whisper when he comes in front of us bearing a warm smile on his face.I am surprised that he is here willingly. Because after he stopped replying to my messages, and stopped answering my calls which I tried to do after I came back to the pack, I was convinced that he — just like everyone else — has given up on me too. I was convinced that he no longer wants to be associated to me and he wants me to leave him alone.And so seeing him here with nothing but warmth on his face is so surprising. But it is a pleasant surprise."Jayla," he says, beaming at me and immediately comes directly for a hug.He is acting just like the Edward l know and remember. He has always liked greeting everybody with hugs."Where have you been?" I ask him as he pulls away.I know that this question coming out of my mouth is weird. And it is simply because I am the reason why this school was closed for a month and the reason why we probably didn't meet.But I still ask him because I have to pret
Unwanted By The Beta CHAPTER NINETY ONE - TRYING TO BE TOUGH
JaylaI wake up, stretching my limbs out to get rid of the kinks in them. Yesterday was a really eventful day for me. I haven't had much fun in a long time like I did yesterday and it was because I spent the time after school with Anna.She had previously asked me to hangout with her so that I could give her a tour of the pack and I agreed. So yesterday, we went on a tour of many places and ended up getting to know more about each other over ice cream and burger. I am glad that I didn't decline her invitation otherwise I wouldn't have had as much fun as I did yesterday.But before I went out to meet her, I made sure I did all my homework first. I smile as I recall Shane calling me a nerd. Well, I am a nerd and I am proud of it. At least, it is better than being a player like that horrible Jasper. If he thinks I have forgotten about what he did to me because I haven't mentioned it to him, he will be in for a shock. I am still sketching out my plan. Very soon, he will get what a lowlif
Unwanted By The Beta CHAPTER NINETY TWO - DISTANCE
JaylaAs I take a bite from my sandwich and chew it slowly with my head down and my eyes on my laps, I feel as if a type of magnetic force is pulling my head upwards so that I can look at my front.I try to resist the force but try as I might, I just can't. In the end, I push all common sense aside and raise my head up just like my instincts have been pushing me to. And as I do so, the first thing I look into is Tyler's beautiful greenish gold eyes. His eyes are mesmerizing and captivating as always but I quickly avert my own eyes from his, looking back down at my lap. And just as I do that, his gaze doesn't linger in my direction anymore. He just takes his eyes off me and looks in another direction before walking away, going deeper into the cafeteria to probably look for a table since he doesn't sit with Jasper and his group of friends anymore.But at that moment, my mood drops drastically just as Tyler takes his seat at an empty table. In fact, I can even say I feel a pang of hurt
Unwanted By The Beta CHAPTER NINETY THREE - A MOMENT OF CALM AND PEACE
JaylaI open my eyes slowly, blinking them lazily as I try to adjust to the blinding sun coming in from my window.Then I backtrack. Blinding sun? How? This is not the time I usually wake up to prepare for school. The sun isn't out by then. Then why is it out now? It can't be out by this time except...As I come to the realization of what I think is happening, I shoot up from my bed in panic, my eyes widening. If I should judge by the reflection of the sun through my windows, I should be at school by now.But why am I not at school? Did I sleep through my alarm. Maybe I did but I can't be too sure if I don't check it first. So I rummage around for my phone on the bed and when I tap on the screen, I don't see any sign of me sleeping through my alarm. Then what happened if that didn't happen?My eyes involuntarily flick up and as I see another thing on my phone, I have a sigh of relief. I really shouldn't have worried myself about sleeping through my alarm and missing school because tod

Unwanted By The Beta CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY SIX - EPILOGUE
JaylaTHREE MONTHS LATERI smile brightly just as Jessica and Anna enter into the dressing room. Today is the coronation of the new Alpha, and by the new Alpha, I mean Jasper. And me, Anna and Jessica are all dressing up in preparation for the ceremony. After Jasper apologized to us that fateful day three months ago, we observed him and noticed that he had truly changed just as he said. So we forgave him, welcoming him back into our fold permanently, and he has soon proved himself. He has been nothing but supportive to all of us in our friend group and he was the one that got Jessica's mate, Hunter settled in when he finally moved here. Jess was given the title of Head of the pack warriors after her father so her mate decided to move here because of her importance in the pack. I was actually surprised that he did something like that but it only goes to show how devoted he is to Jess. After the new head warrior was crowned, the Beta and the Beta Female were also crowned which is Tyl
Unwanted By The Beta CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY FIVE - A VERY SINCERE APOLOGY
JaylaJasper closes the door of the car and steps out completely, walking towards where we are. He stops in front of us, looking from one person to the other while he still doesn't say a word.No one among us sitting on the blankets even open our mouths to speak. We just stare at him as he stares at us and the tension in the air begins to rise, blanketing all of us with its thickness. Then Shane — ever the do-gooder — chooses to speak. "Good day, Alpha," he says with a slight bow of the head. Shane feels that even though he is older than Jasper, Jasper still remains his Alpha and he has to be submissive to him, which is why he bows almost every time he greets Jasper. Then Anna, following Shane's lead greets too and very soon, all the others start to greet Jasper. Before I know what is happening, Jessica and Hunter greet Jasper and even Tyler grunts out a greeting to his former best friend.I am the only one left to greet Jasper, the Alpha but I don't budge despite the looks I get f
Unwanted By The Beta CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY FOUR - DELIBRATIONS ON REVENGE
TylerIt is weekend already and I am glad. The whole school week has been so hectic so I am happy that is finally weekend. That way everyone can get to rest and that is exactly what we are doing now. Me, Jayla, Jessica and her mate, Hunter, Shane and Anna are all here together and I can say that we are already having a good time despite the fact that we just got here. Jessica's mate has been here for about three days and we haven't really hung out. He has just been going out with Jess whenever she has time. So we all decided to come out today and blow a bit of steam from the past week especially since Jessica and Jayla were planning a big hangout for all of us on the day that Jessica's mate arrived at this pack. Everyone here is all smiles and since we just got here, we haven't really had the chance to order food yet. But we have ordered drinks so we sip on that as everyone engage in conversations. I can see that everyone is happy. This is how it is supposed to be. We are suppose
Unwanted By The Beta CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY THREE - A SURPRISE VISIT
JaylaI am standing under a leafy oak tree in the school compound. But the shade the tree provides is the last thing on my mind right now. Other important things are occupying my mind at the moment. It's been about thirty minutes since Jessica was called to the principal's office and she hasn't come out yet. Frankly, I am getting worried more and more with each minute that passes. I just hope she is okay. I hope she hasn't gotten into any trouble. But why would she even get into trouble? She hasn't done anything wrong according to school standards. I just hope she comes out very soon. I am lost in my thoughts so much that I am startled by the sound of someone calling my name."Jayla!" the person calls out and I shake before turning around to see who it is. I see Jessica walking towards me and beside her is a handsome young guy with blond hair. The guy doesn't look familiar and I can immediately tell that he is not from around this place. Also, his skin is slightly darker than even
Unwanted By The Beta CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY TWO - A LOVELY PIECE OF NEWS
JaylaIt is Tuesday and the day I resume school after my three day suspension. The time away from school did me well, and I can say that I am energetic and more relaxed now. Our final exams are around the corner and I feel confident that I will do well in them and come out in flying colors.I don't even want to come out in flying colors alone; I want to graduate at the top of my class. And I will. I will make sure of that. The first three classes of the day is over so me and Jess are walking down the hallway while we talk about what we want to do after school today. "I think all of us should go out to a diner and hangout," Jess says. "It's been long we have all gone out and done something like that. What do you think, Jay?""It sounds great. We should do it. But I am not sure it would work today, though. It will be at such a short notice and the others might not be up for it," I say."Okay. So we will have it either tomorrow or the day after. We will have to inform everyone today so
Unwanted By The Beta CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY ONE - FORMER FRIENDS
TylerShane and I have been sitting here for about half an hour just playing games. Jessica left not long after Jayla left for her house. She said her father needed her to do something for him so she really had to go. Anna had said she had to go home so Shane had to see her off. I noticed that he spent a very long time before he came back so I know they talked for a while. I have been observing Shane and Anna these past few days and I can tell that there is something between them. I can see it in their eyes that they have feelings for each other even though they are not mates. But both of them have been denying having feelings for each other. All the times that I have asked Shane about it, he has always denied it. But I won't relent. I will keep asking and pestering him till he admits that he has feelings for her. She is the type of girl he needs and they complement each other. In fact, they are perfect for each other. One would wonder why I am so interested in Shane's affairs si
Unwanted By The Beta CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY - A NIGHT OUT WITH MOM AND DAD
JaylaAfter I shift abruptly without warning, Jessica stares at my pure white wolf in amazement. She has never seen my wolf before so I understand why she is as surprised as this. I would be surprised too if I was in her position and seeing a beautiful white wolf for the first time.She takes her time to "ohh" and "ahh" over my wolf, circling it multiple times and gasping in amazement before she is satisfied. Then she pulls her clothes off, folding them into a neat pile which she keeps in a secret hideout deeper into the woods.I begin to wonder about which clothes I will put on when we finish running since all my clothes have been shredded to rags as a result of the way I shifted without any warning whatsoever. But I push the thought out of my mind before it lingers too long. I am exhilarated because Mia has finally come back to me and I want to enjoy every moment in her skin for as long as I can. And thinking about which clothes I will wear after the run won't help matters at all
Unwanted By The Beta CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY NINE - ANOTHER EMERGENCE
JaylaAs soon as I ask my question, everywhere and everyone becomes silent, so much that if a pin is dropped on the floor, the sound would be heard clearly. The air around all of us becomes thick with tension and I look at the faces of everyone around the table, moving from one to the another. As my eyes meet theirs, they all look away. Well, all of them except for Anna who looks at me with a confused and probing expression on her face. That is when I realize that I have done something wrong. I shouldn't have talked about the revenge we are supposed to be planning for Jasper because Anna is here and she is not supposed to know about it.Well, I have committed a mistake but there is no going back. Anna has already heard the beginning of it so I might as well tell her all about it. I feel like she deserves to know since she is more or less a part of our friend group now. We have gotten really closer these past few days and I can tell that she is someone I can trust. I fix my gaze on
Unwanted By The Beta CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY EIGHT - AN INTERESTING MORNING
Jayla The first thing I do when I wake up in the morning is to open my eyes because of the light pressure I feel on my waist. Wait, I think. Why am I feeling like someone's arms are wrapped around my waist? Am I not supposed to be at home? Even the room doesn't look like mine.I look to the side and there is Tyler, and he is looking at me with a cheeky grin on his face. He is the one whose arms are wrapped around me. As I come to that realization, I start to remember the events from yesterday from the beginning to the end. I remember Anna and Jessica being at my house and how we all came to the pack house with me driving. I also remember all the games we played and how we all got really drunk. Which makes me to realize that the drinking is the cause of this throbbing headache which I currently have. I groan as I rub my hands over my temple, wondering how I allowed myself to get as drunk as this. Then another thought flits through my mind and I sit up immediately, my eyebrows shoo
