Chapter two

CHAPTER TWO

    During break, Jerry and I were walking down the school hallway when we caught a group of girls gossiping.

 We ignored it,  It was normal for people to always gossip, what made us stop on our steps was when we heard the Alpha name.

It piques my interest and It seems interesting when I heard the Alpha son been mentioned.

   Though people talk about the Alpha and our royal family a lot, these girls were talking about the Alpha son as they refer to him.

“I heard the Alpha son will be resuming our school tomorrow, isn’t that great.” A girl from the group said.

I move closer to them and at my arrival they stop talking.

 “Where did you get that information from?” I asked in an authoritative tone,            

   Even though I attend the same  school as them, that doesn’t change the fact that  I was still the Alpha daughter they listen to whenever I speak.

 The girl shrank back  in fear, Meanwhile I didn’t  do anything to her, I just asked a question.

“Where did you get that information from?” I asked again but this time in a much calmer tone in order to free  the tense air.

The girl bowed her head low, not daring to look up at me.

“I overheard it from some other students.” She replied in a shallow tone.

 I scoffed. “Remember you are here to study not gossip, if I ever heard you gossiping about anything that has to do with my family, You will have me to bear with .”

With that  I walked away while Jerry followed behind me.

 I stopped at an empty class where no one was gonna see me. I felt a hand on my shoulder and knew who it was, of course it was Jerry. He was the only one who  shared my pain with me, Not my dad, not even the people I called family.

I sobbed silently. “ I hate hearing about that boy, why was he coming to   my school? Were they trying to ruin my life by sending him to my school cus there was definitely no way we are both gonna school here peacefully.”

Jerry held me in his arms, silently consoling me while patting me back.

  After a while, I calmed down and we both headed to the cafeteria for lunch before heading back to class.

  

   In the evening I walked downstairs to the dinning. The Alpha had called for every member of the royal family  to come today for dinner. I was curious about what he wanted to say so I let curiosity get the better of me and went there.

 Normally he only did that when he had something important to announce.

  The Dining table was already filled with the royal members when I got there.  I stared at my seat which had already been occupied by the so-called boy.

Like seriously I don’t  even know what’s  name is, not like I care though.

 I stared at him angrily. How dare he take my seat? He lifted his head and then our gaze met.

He smiled and said  “Hi, little sister, it's been a while since I saw you, so funny how we stay on the same roof yet we rarely see each other.”

He pulled out a seat for me which was closer to his. “Come sit.” He said.

I rolled my eyes ignoring him, I pulled out a chair from the other side not wanting to sit closer to him.

Who was he calling little sister, The audacity!! 

“You don’t  come to the dinning often, Is  it because the Alpha called for everyone that's why you came?" He asked.

I almost stood up to go give him a good slap but I held myself. What was the use of so many questions? This was my home. I could come here whenever I liked. Who was he to question me?

I scoffed. “I don't want to see some annoying people so I'd rather stay in my room than come to the dinning.”

 He frowned knowing I was referring to him.

The meaning was clear, why was he acting like we  are on good terms or was he just looking for trouble.

He tried saying something again but I shut him up with  a cold look and he flinched.

Well, that was quite surprising , I never expected him to flinch at my action. Such a coward.

 I felt proud of what I did.

   The Alpha, noticing the tension between I and his unknown son, speaks. “Miranda Ace was just being nice, There is no need to be rude.”  He said with a frown.

What was he expecting, was I supposed to speak calmly to my enemy..

Ace!  His name doesn’t  suit him at all.

I huffed in response to the Alpha words and he almost got crazy from anger.

 But who cares? Ever since the death of my mum The pack late  Luna,  The only thing The Alpha cared about was his so-called  heir, He doesn’t  care about me neither do I care  about him too.

 We act like each other doesn't exist.

I sat at the seat towards the edge of the table. I was kind of sitting far from him and he couldn't do anything but stare at me in anger.

Soon the meal was set and everyone started digging in.
