Jayla

I am sitting up when something suddenly comes to my mind and I decide to act on it.

-Let's give you a name, I say to my wolf, my tone giddy with happiness.

Her ears perk up in attention and interest. -Who? Me? she asks.

-No, my new born baby, I say dryly, rolling my eyes in mock annoyance.

She pouts at my bluntness and sinks back on her fours before speaking. -I am your child, she mumbles, giving me adorable puppy eyes.

When you close your eyes and talk to your wolf, you can actually picture them in your mind. It is weird. They have the form of a wolf, but the intellect of a human and a voice quite different from yours.

-Whatever! I chip out, chuckling. -Um, what about Bree?

-Hmmm, she says, thinking about it. -I like it ... but it doesn't hit me like l want it to.-

I nod. -What about Laura? I ask.

She shakes her head and I sigh in mild exasperation. Then I start to rake my head for new and creative names. -What of Carmen, then?-

I give her a pleading, expectant look but still,

    Jayla-Mia, I breathe out. I really need her at this point. My throat feels dry and it is hard to speak. But thankfully I don't have to do that to talk to my wolf.She doesn't speak at first, and it is like she is in a state of shock. I can see her faintly, her white fur shining through my mind, but she is still, her brown eyes frozen.-Mia? I say again and she takes a sharp breath.-That son of a bitch! she says through gritted teeth.-How dare he touch us like that! she growls. -I will kill him!-I look at her with sad eyes. -I really appreciate your fervour, Mia, but I hope you know that realistically we can't do anything about the situation we are in.-I rub my forearms with my hands, wishing I have a loofah with me so that I can wash his touch away from my body. The only time I have access to the bathroom is in the morning for about fifteen minutes, in which l have to manage to do everything, including taking a bath.The water is always cold. Just like their hearts. But I want ho

    Jayla"Wake up, you bitch!" he growls. I blink my eyes a couple of times before waking up completely, my eyes focusing on my surroundings. Once the world around me makes sense, I can clearly notice how beyond furious he looks and fear crawls into my heart.What is he doing here so early in the morning? Why is he so furious?"You think this is a joke?" he shouts at me, striding forward as he grips my arms and pulls me up roughly.I cry out in pain as his fingernails dig into my flesh and it stings because it has already been bruised."I told you to talk to your mate and call him here," he says in a low voice which is threatening."I did, but..." I start but he doesn't let me."But he made a joke out of it!" he growls before he tightens his hold on me and throws me to the corner of the room like I am just a sack of potatoes.My back crashes against the wall, and it causes pain to me immensely. Mia begins to work on healing it immediately.He throws the piece of paper in my face before

    TylerSometimes, you don't realize how fortunate you are until misfortune comes barreling in. You don't realize how easy everything is until things get much harder. You don't think of how much you have until you don't have most of those things anymore."Do you think Alpha Jackson will accept your proposal?" Jasper asks as I am standing by the door, getting ready to leave. I am going to Alpha Jackson's pack which is a few kilometers from ours, and I am going there to ask for his help and that of his pack.I don't want to reply to his question. Especially after talking to Jayla's wolf, when she had told me that the kidnappers took Jayla because they think that she is the Luna and she has the access to some sort of precious stone or gem.I can't help but blame him in the back of my mind because if it had not been for him and his flirtatious ways, my mate would still have been safe. Although, I know it is more my fault than his, I can't help it. It feel like he is the cause of everything

    TylerThe words which just came out of Jasper's mouth burn a fire deep inside my body, and my whole body burns in fury, betrayal and hatred.I clench my jaw and curl my fists up because of the amount of disgust I feel for this person in front of me who once used to be my best friend. But now, he is a freaking monster. A monster who uses people when and how he wants. I so badly want to punch him in the face and hurt him as much as I can and that is what I will do.Raising my fist high in the air, I deliver a punch directly to his nose and enjoy myself as an audible and satisfying cracking sound reverberates throughout the whole room."Watch your actions, Tyler. I am still your Alpha," Jasper says before he growls at me, holding a hand over his nose as it starts healing in a really fast pace which is hella Friday. I want to break it over and over again until it won't be fine anymore. His face won't be good at all when I am finished with him."I dont fucking care!" I growl and grab him

    Jayla"No!" I scream, my voice coming out weaker than usual as I try to hit him on his chest to hurt him, but my arms are too weak. But I don't give up. I still try. I try to kick his shin to make him lose his balance.But soon my body starts giving away and blackness starts to come into my eyes. I blink through the blurriness, trying to get my vision back but nothing helps, and the last thing I remember before passing out is the evil, cunning grin on his face.***My eyes open and a long breath leaves my throat as I hear the door slam open. Shifting my gaze toward the entrance, I notice the outline of a familiar body making its way toward me. I blink several times, trying to focus but it isn't possible. Eveything is just making my eyes hazy.I feel a sudden pressure on my neck and a sharp scream leaves my throat as I am pulled up by my collar, and onto my feet. I sway on my feet, barely managing to stand straight when my back is slammed into a wall with a very brutal force."This fu

    JaylaHe smirks evilly before he continues. "But now, nothing can stop me. Not even your wolf," he says as he grabs my arm and pulls me up. I scream in pain because my wrists are still not healed from the previous burns.He clicks his tongue and is about to say something, but his eyes fog over suddenly, indicating that he is mind linking the members of his pack.He remains like that for a few minutes, his expression flashing between anger and frustration and finally, he growls loudly at the end of it.His cold gaze turns to me and he pulls me toward the opposite wall of the cellar, binding me to the silver chains, like he always does when he wants to interrogate me."What do you want now?" I growl, pulling on the silver shackles because they are already burning and bruising the skin underneath them.But I don't even flinch. Pain has nothing on me right now. I am already accustomed to it. It is a part of me now. It is a part of my new life. A new part of Jayla Parker."You know what I

    Tyler"Shane!" I say into the phone, replying him in a shocked voice.I never thought that I would be happy to hear from this same person ever in my life. The truth is that I have always disliked him from the bottom of my heart. And it is not only because my mate seemed to have always liked him a bit more than me, but also because he is always more calm and composed than I am. The only time I remember him losing his temper was when it came to his mate, but other than that, he has always been the wise one. The calm one. The gentle one.But at this moment, to hear from him is like a heavy rain falling after a long period of drought. Because he seems like the only person who would be there for Jayla no matter what. Even if no one agrees to fight, at least I will have him with me to fight and I won't be alone. That is a relieving thought."You were able to hear me, right?" he asks in a somewhat cold tone. "I just asked you if Jayla is alright. I am very close to the borders of the pack n

    JaylaI have never really liked being out in the sun for too long. However, being stuck in this little room with little or no light, makes me appreciate sunlight in a way I never have before.The sun signifies so much to so many people, but for me, the sun is what separates the cold climates from the hot climates, and it is also the difference between light and darkness.Looking at the small window at the the top of my room, I let out a sigh a I lean back against the wall. I don't know for how long I lay there, just looking out and wondering about many things.I don't want to think though, because thinking drives me crazy. I want to do something. I want to keep myself busy. I want to run arournd, be happy, be carefree, have friends, laugh and smile like l used to before. Sometimes I wonder what changed. Sometimes I wonder if I will ever get back the life I had before my eighteenth birthday. I wonder if I will ever be that happy again. I hate my birthday now. That day changed everyth

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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
