‘Shit!’ I cursed lightly as my skin got scalded as I rammed my hand into a hot cup of coffee.
‘Hell shit! I'll be damned!’ I cursed even loudly.
“Language, Callie! Language!” My mom yelled at me and I hissed more before dabbing off the stains from the table and placing my hand under running water to dampen the burning sensation.
“We're gonna be late for school Callie, hurry up!” A female voice called out from outside.
I grabbed my backpack, threw it on my back and sprinted out of the house, waving my mom and baby brother goodbye. I got into a car and shut the door behind me.
“You're early today princess.”
“Shut up and drive Xyla!” I snickered.
Xyla chuckled and ignited the car engine, driving away from the hood. “You look hurt, boy are you in a mood today!”
“I burnt my hand with hot coffee, how stupid can that be?” I complained bitterly and she laughed at me. I threw her a friendly punch and she chuckled, we both laughed and gisted all the way down to school.
She pulled over at the parking lot and we both got out, luckily; we got to school ten minutes early. Barely had we stepped foot in the building that we were surrounded by other girls.
“Hi Xyla, it's nice to see you back in school.”
“Your hair looks beautiful.”
“You've changed your car?”
“You look refreshed!”
I smiled bitterly, seeing that all the attention was on her but she grabbed my arm and drew me closer, sending off a subtle message that I was with her and the girls frowned, seeing this and made some lame excuse before leaving.
“It's good to be back at school, isn't it?” I asked her, rhetorically.
“C'mon Callie, we just resumed a new semester, cheer up!” Xyla advised me as we walked towards our classroom. We have the same classes this semester so we're going to be basically inseparable.
“If it isn't my fairy princess.”
We looked up to see Tyler, a teenager around our age, jet black hair, slick kicks, a decent outfit and a face to die for approach us. He wrapped his hands around Xyla’s waist and kissed her fully on the lips.
“Tyler.” She moaned against his lips.
I chuckled embarrassedly and excused myself, going into the classroom.
“Hi Cal, looking hot!” Tyler shouted after me and I acknowledged him with a gentle nod. He's Xyla's mate and ever since they realized this last year, they've been madly in love.
I got to my seat and sat down quietly. There were other students gossiping and bragging about their holidays and whatnot and I rolled my eyes, repulsed.
“If it isn't Calliope, Xyla's personal servant. What are you doing here? Haven't your scholarship ended?” A tiny and irritatingly high-pitched voice mocked.
I looked up to see Thalia, dressed up like a doll with Melissa and Rivera standing right behind her, they laughed at her stupid joke and I rolled my eyes at them.
“Go away Thalia, I don't want trouble.” I warned her, lowly.
“Oh, the poor girl doesn't want any trouble, where did you get your clothes? Isn't it the same ones you wore last semester? So last season.” Thalia insulted, loudly. This drew the attention of other students and they laughed at me.
“Go away.” I muttered.
She brought out a bottle of perfume and sprayed it around me, emptying the entire bottle as if I were stinking. “That's better, this place smells less of lowlifes,”
They were all laughing and I fought the urge to bang her head into the table but she was Thalia Flinch, daughter of Alpha Flinch, the infamously ruthless and powerful alpha of the north, insanely wealthy and shady, it would be like digging my own grave.
“Please, leave me alone.” I whispered as I began to flip through the pages of my note. She suddenly grabbed my bag and rummaged through it. I tried taking it but her minions blocked me.
“That doesn't belong to you! Give it back!” I yelled in despair as she got a hold of my diary, her eyes twinkling with mischief.
“Give it back to her Thalia!” A familiar voice commanded.
Xyla walked in, red-faced and angry. She looked at me apologetically and frowned at Thalia. “What do you think you're doing?”
Thalia snickered, though she was a powerful figure in school, Xyla also had a pretty strong reputation and backing, they never agreed on a thing as Xyla is my best friend and always stood up for me when Thalia strikes.
“The pauper's best-friend is here. It's nice to see that she hasn't rubbed off her ill-luck on you, you should hang out with people on your level, people like me.” Thalia said, shamelessly.
Xyla hissed loudly. “You're way beneath me Thalia and you know that.”
Thalia got angry and opened the diary, reading through the pages. “Dear diary, I am so ashamed of myself today, I could barely afford a pair of new shoes and had no choice than to wear the ones Xyla lovingly gave to me..”
Embarrassed, tears rolled down my face, she was reading out my thoughts. Xyla was pissed and she tried to retrieve the diary but the minions did a good job of blocking her as well.
“I can't help but feel suicidal knowing that I am adopted and never knew who my real parents are…” Thalia continued, laughing as she read it out loudly.
“Give it back!” I cried in horror but no one listened.
“Didn't you hear her? Give the damn book back!” Xyala thundered and lunged against her, she grabbed Thalia's hair but Thalia was able to wriggle free and got a hold of me instead.
“Hands off or you'll regret it!” A male voice thundered.
It was as if the entire world paused because we all froze and turned out heads to look at the direction of the voice. A boy tall and handsome well with his hands tucked into his pocket, a frowned plastered on his face and murderous intent walked in.
He looked at me and I could swear that he smiled briefly then turned to face Thalia. “Didn't you hear what I said? Get your filthy hands off!” He snapped.
Thalia immediately let go and I could see that she was scared, she began to chuckle nervously.
“I wasn't doing anythi-.” She stammered but he shut her up with a deadly glare.
“Are you alright?” He asked me and I almost dropped dead. Me? I could feel Thalia's death glare bore into my skin.
“M-me-me?” I stuttered.
He clicked his tongue, snatched the diary from Thalia and handed it over to me, however, he drew me closer and hugged me intimately. “Nice to see you again Callie, God! You smell heavenly.” He whispered into my ears.
Thalia almost buried herself underground and he casually walked over to Xyla and pinched her nose while she stuck out her tongue at him.
“What took you so long? You know how to make an entry don't you?” Xyla threw at him, playfully.
He opened his mouth to speak but a teacher walked in and we all scurried to our seats. He walked up to the teacher who had a huge smile plastered on her face.
“Good morning and welcome back to school students, you have a new classmate and he'll introduce himself to you.” Mrs Salvatore uttered.
“I'm Xandros Xavier.” He introduced, briefly.
There were murmurs and gasps. The name sounded familiar to me and I could swear I've seen him before. I was lost in my thought and looked up to see him pointing at me then walking over.
Alerted, I almost froze as he sat on the seat beside me. I looked at him and he gave me a ghost of a smile which is when it finally dawned on me who he was. “Xandros!” I gasped. He is Xyla's twin brother
Xandros POVThe training wasn't ideal for me, it wasn't what I wanted but I had to work with it because this is basically the only chance I get to prove that I'm better without Calliope. Everyone thinks she's this new and improved version of Calliope, see what she did to Thaila. She felt good about it, and Thaila, on the other hand, got scared. This is my time to let her know that I'm better and way smarter than she is. If she thinks she can take my sister away from me, she has another thing coming.“Xandros, Thaila, Cathy, and Tyler.” The Tutor called our names again for clarity. “ Caillope singlehandedly defeated the twins and now we have to do whatever it takes to defeat Xandros and Thiala. They can be deceitful.” Due to my ability to hear from a distance, I heard Tyler's warning to Cathy as she nodded in concession to his words. The duel began, and she pounced on Thaila. She was gaining the upper hand against her, so I had to step in to save Thaila. So I collected her sword an
Calliope's POV “If we're going out there, we're going out as one, so we don't get defeated by other teams,” I explained to her so she would understand that this isn't just a fight, but I have to win to be a thorn in Xandros and Thalia's flesh combined. “I'll do whatever it takes to protect you.”I wish Xandros and Thiala would be our opponents so that I get to have my chance at making him an epitome of mockery.When we arrived at the field, it wasn't just a battlefield. It was an ancient landmark, where my dad fought his enemies and defeated them. “I know she doesn't remember her father since she's lost her memories but Calliope's father defeated his enemies using a formidable strategy that no one has ever used even to this day.”“So sad that she doesn't remember her father. Who knows if she's too weak to even lift a finger?” Thaila was hell bent on taunting me but never knew that Calliope was hell bent on winning her through the semester. “Today we're going to be learning the bas
Author's POVXandros was surprised that Xyla didn't come home, it was the first time she'd ever stayed outside the pack. “I told you Xandros, Xyla's glued to her already.” Tyler chuckles as he gets off the stairs. “She didn't come home last night.” Xandros said it out loud letting Tyler laugh about it because he realized that Xyla didn't send a message to Xandros explaining her wellbeing. “Yeah everyone got her message excluding you I guess.” He scoffs, “What message?” Xandros asked as Tyler read it out to him. “I won't be coming home tonight, I'm staying with Calliope. We're working on something, I'll meet you at school.” Tyler pronounced every word loudly for Xandros to hear. “Everyone, I guess you mean just you.” Thaila interrupted as Xandros watched his father announce.“Dear father, I know how worried you'll be not seeing me at home. I'm safe, staying at a friend's place. It's a fortress and a new environment, so it wouldn't be bad to stay away from my brother for a while.”
Author's POV “I should report that man to my parents and they would have him fired.”“Don't do that Thalia, whatever happened is in the past now. Just forget about it.”“Yeah you should and I suggest you stay out of her way or she might put you in an emergency ward after she's broken your bones.” Tyler warned, he was amused at what Calliope did to Thalia in class.While he was still listening to Xandros's words, a hand touched him. He turned to see Cathy, he wondered what she wanted this time. “Since we're partners I decided that we should spend more time in order to be able to stand toe to toe with other teams.”“What if I don't want to do that?”“There's nothing wrong about it. You can set your boundaries and I would never cross them.” Tyler knew that Cathy was only suggesting it because she didn't want to fail. “Fine I'll think about it, where's your phone?” He asked as she handed her phone to him, he dialed his number and ordered her. “Text me later, I might have finished maki
Calliope's POV The class was filled with everyone having their attention glued to me because I proved to be a thorn in her flesh, that was what she wanted trying to take my place in class. I mean she thinks that I'll be scared of her. How foolish of her to think that way? And why is Xandros stealing glances at me with a smile on his face?After the class I left, heading back to my ride, I was shocked that Xyla followed me. I wondered what she wanted this time because I knew she was pissed at me for what I did. “Hey I know it was bad how we got heated up in class, we're partners and I suggest the only best way we get to beat other teams is if we're friends and we trust each other.” It's amusing knowing that I'm the one supposed to be apologizing to her but she's turned the coin. “I don't trust anyone.” I retorted, pretending to be serious with my words. “Yeah I know that but you can fake it until it's real.” Xyla was persistent, she wanted this friendship genuinely but I don't kno
Calliope's POV If Xandros thinks he can yell at me and get away with it, he should think again. I'm glad that he doesn't know that I remember everything that he did to me, I'm changed. I'm not the scared little lady that ran way after being rejected. I'm just another version of myself and I kinda love this better. He doesn't know me and trust me there's a lot that I have to do to make him pay for what he did to me. "Calliope can you tell us a bit about the history of our ancestors?" "Of course, our ancestors at times were foolish just like this guy sitting next to me. They made wrong choices and it affected their lives and their packs at large. Depending on other packs for survival shows how weak they are, just like Xandros's pack. If you can't survive on your own why not surrender to another pack or have a merger? He can't think of that because like I said earlier he's foolish. Xyla told me a lot about their pack, we had a healthy conversation over pizza and lemonade" "Detailed d
