Jayla

As 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

    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

    Jayla I am jarred awake by the sound of my phone ringing. Why is it ringing by this time? Who could be calling so early in the morning? And a Sunday morning for that matter! It had better be for something important or else...I snatch the still ringing phone off my bed and when I look at who is calling, I let out a hiss because it is the last person I expect. It is Jessica and I can even predict the reason she is calling me without picking up the phone.I know she is calling to apologize to me in hopes that I will forgive her, but as I have said before, I am not ready for that at this moment. The time to forgive her has not yet come.I let the phone ring out until the call disconnects. Then I sigh and collapse back on my bed again, ready to go back to sleep. There is still time for me to squeeze in some sleep before I will have to wake up finally. I am already dozing off and about to fall into the land of sleep when the phone rings loudly again, jarring me from my state of almost sle

    JaylaFew hours later, I am still in bed and the only food left is two slices of pizza and a bottle of soda. I have eaten the rest of the food. I am full now and I smile as I rub my stomach. No wonder the gym is not for me. I am too lazy for it. Since I have the day all to myself, I need to start on some things. There is no use lying around like this without something to do. So I start to think of Jasper, as usual, and how I am going to punish him for what he did to me. And now, I think it is time to start mapping out my plans. The first thing I think about is just exposing him to the pack members, telling them of all his atrocities and how selfish he is. Surely, they wouldn't want to have such a person as their future Alpha, right? I don't think so.But another issue is this: I don't think they will believe me. They might think I am just looking for sympathy after what happened to me back in that rogue pack. And I know that they don't really know who Jasper is and what he can do.

    JaylaI walk into school the next day and the first place I go is my locker. I put in the combination and pull it open. Then I take out some notebooks and papers and put them into my bag before I start walking towards the direction of my first period class. Halfway there, I hear the sound of footsteps at my back and suddenly, I am put on guard since this is the way I have been since I came back from the kidnappers den. I am always feeling jittery and on alert. It is like a part of me now. So I immediately turn around and I relax a bit when I see that it is just Shane walking towards me. I put a smile on my face because I don't want him to know I am jittery like this now. He is already protective enough and if he knows this, he will become even more protective. And yes, I have decided that I am done pushing Shane away from me. He is the only true friend I have right now and we have been friends since childhood. I don't think there is someone who knows me more than him except maybe J

  • Unwanted By The Beta   CHAPTER NINETY SEVEN - HIS ARMS

    JaylaI lean back in my seat as I look around the mostly empty classroom. And it is empty because almost all of the students are at the cafeteria since it is lunch time, of course. Only a handful of students are left in this classroom, and among them is Tyler. I know that even though I don't have to look out for him in the classroom. I can just feel that he is here even if I don't catch a glimpse of him and it is because of the mate bond. I can even catch his scent too and it comforts me a little even if I try to resist it. The main reason I stayed back in the class was because I didn't want to face Tyler at the cafeteria during lunch time. My feelings for him are beginning to surge back, especially when we are close to each other and I don't want that. I have to focus, so I stayed back in the class instead of going to the cafeteria, sacrificing my food till when school is over so that I could then go home to eat. But as it turned out, my plan didn't later work out as I had wanted.

    JaylaI sigh in frustration as I let out a deep breath. And all this is because I am really frustrated. I am in French class and the teacher is explaining some things, but I can't seem to focus long enough to actually understand what she is talking about. My mind is not even in the class presently. There is only one thing in my mind and that is how to ask Jessica for help on how to get revenge on Jasper. Ever since I realized that I need her to help me, that is all I have been thinking about. That is the only thing my mind can focus on. I don't really know how to ask for her help without seeming desperate to her. I don't want to come off that way so I really need to pull this off in a good way. There is no way to do it except this way.And to be honest, I still want to be angry with her about what she did to me. But I have to let it go. If I want to move on, I have to do that. Plus I really need her help if I want to teach Jasper a lesson to remember. And I know what to do. I have

    Jayla Then I begin to tell Jessica about everything that happened to me when I was in that rogue pack under Mark's mercy. I don't leave our anything including Jasper's part in it and Kendra's involvement. If not for Kendra, I might never have made it out of there alive before my pack members came to save me, and for that, I owe her. If only there is a way to repay her for all what she did for me, even though her help can never be completely paid for because it is priceless. I tell Jessica about how I was given doses upon doses of wolfsbane and other poisonous and dangerous substances almost every day, and in amounts that could have ended my life or caused permanent psychological damage to me but luckily I survived it.I tell her about the plenty times I was bounded either silver chains and the numerous beatings I received in the hands of Mark and his minions. I also tell her about the time he cracked the neck of one of them in my presence, killing him cold bloodedly just because he

    JaylaAfter everything that happened with Jessica in the bathroom, we parted ways because we were having different classes next, but she promised to come over to my house so that we can start planning the revenge. I am in my next class now and the time is about twenty minutes in but the teacher hasn't arrived yet. We are supposed to be deep into the AP calculus class by this time but since the teacher is a no-show, the students are just hanging around the class and doing what they like. But as for me, I just balance myself on my seat as I keep reading a book, not minding the noise all around me. I should probably be used to it by now but I am not. And maybe it is because of all what I have passed through but even noise makes me jumpy now even when it didn't before. Then my focus moves from the book in front of me to thoughts of one of my friends and that is Edward. He has always been a good friend to me and I don't know why I think this way, but I feel as if he doesn't want to talk

    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
