Chapter Two: Possy

Emelia's POV

As I walk through the halls of this comical excuse for a school, I recount my plans on my eighteenth birthday. I would wake up and act as if nothing has changed. Nothing at all, and in the school day excuse myself from class and run. Run to the closest pack, i had done enough research to know that the closest pack to Starry Moon was Howling Moon pack. Roughly about 50 miles outside of the packs border. I imagine Victoria trying to cook, and Axel doing his own laundry. I laugh in my head.

"Well look who it is the pack reject" A high pitched voice sneered, snapping me out of my beloved daydream.

As i turn around im not surprised by the firgure behind me. Riley.

Her perfectly blond mid-length hair and sharp blue eyes, and or course we cant forget about the skimpy outfit. See Riley here is the queen for one reason and one reason only. Her precious father is our Alpha's beta , which meant Riley could do almost anything without conscience. The beta is a decent person who cares about the pack members, his daughter though. She was the complete opposite, she a devil in prada heels.

And the queen wouldn't be a queen without her possy of idiots.

Maria, or as i call her Bobble Head 1, to Riley's left. Maria is the complete opposite of Riley, pitch black hair and brown eyes. And Jennfer, or Bobble Head 2, to the right. Jennifer is more curvey than Riley or Maria, which is probably why shes known for sleeping with half the school. Some teachers too if those rumors are true. A true redhead with green eyes. The gammas fraternal twins. Both bobble heads are such followers their outfits are basically an homage to Rileys. Only difference is they had the common sense to wear tights or leggings under their seriously short skirts.

"Yes Riley" The irritation evident in my voice.

All she had to do was give Jennifer a simple nod and next thing i know both puppets have pinned me against a locker.

"What is with the attitude Emery" She never could get my name right. I don't know if its on purpose or just plain stupidity.

"I just wanted to say i adore your outfit today so..." she wondered off trying to find the right word

"chic" she had a sickly sweetness in her voice, i almost forgot who she was for a second. "But i think you're missing something" The smile creeping on her face sent shivers down my spine.

"And what would that be" The sarcasm now oozing off of my tongue.

That's when it hit me, the smell. The smell of rotten food.

Maria had grabbed the trash and slowly dumped it all over me. Shaking the trash over my head as to not miss a single drop. Food and all types of drinks now covered me head to toe. The stench overpowering.

The sound of Riley's laugh echoed down the halls. Students stopped in their tracks to watch everything unfold. Not a single person even tried to stop her. To convince her to leave me alone.

Lyla was fighting to come forward, thankfully I was able to subdue her. It's not like this treatment is anything new. I should be use to it. But something about trash being poured on you just makes you want to break.

I hadn't been able to fully process that i had the entire schools trash filling my shirt before Riley's unrealistally high pitched scream pulsated throughout the school. I'm pretty sure you could hear her all the way from the pack house.

Slowly looking up, I see the most amazing sight.

Even being halfway down the hall Jaz had very easily threw her iced latte directly at Riley. Jaz is on the softball team, and if i say so myself she is the teams best player. Her aim is spectacular.

The caramel latte, now seeping down Riley's hair and the the drips staining her white top. Her mascara slowly starting to smudge and drip down her face. Coffee pooling around her shoes.

"Jasmine! You're dead meat." Riley growled,

"Not as dead as you'll be if you dont vanish into thin air in the next five seconds!" Jaz said. If we weren't wolved we would have never heard her. The earie calm she exerted as she inched closer. With every step Jaz's growl became louder. Jaz already being eighteen and having her wolf, as of yesterday, was the only thing that seemed to scare the three.

"Leave her alone, and walk away before i let my wolf rip your pretty little head off and watch it roll down the hall." Jaz still growling, now directly in Riley's face. "I said disappear!"

"Just wait until I'm.." Riley didn't get a chance to finish her thought before Jaz cut her off

"Until you're what? Huh? Because as far as I see it the guy that has you as a mate is a fucking demented pig. You're suppose to he a caring luna, not a despicable one. Not one that gets her thrills from bullying her pack." Jaz didn't care she has always been the one to be more vocal about her opinions. And i absolutely loved her for it. She always stuck up for the underdog. The ones that were to afraid to speak up for themselves.

"The poor guy won't make it with you as their mate, whoever he may be would be crazy to accept you. To accept a ruthless bitch as his mate" Riley visibly seething, and clearly at a loss for words, but that never stopped Jaz. Her fury drooling with every word she spoke. "What? No comeback Ms. Queen Bee?" Did i mention how much I love my best friend.

Riley, fuming at this point. Maria and Jennifer were carfully tending to the coffee and caramel in her hair, simply said two words that made me fear for my best friends life.

"Just Wait"

And with that, she turned on her heels and sped to the nearest bathroom. With the bobbleheads at her heels.

"The things I wish you'd let me do to her!" Lyla spit. "How could you let them do that to you! Trash Em, literal trash was dumped on you and you stand there like a statue" Lyla asked i can hear the faint whimper of sadness "You're not weak Em, you are stronger than you think, if only you'd let me prove it to you"

"Lyla, I can't." I interjected. "I can't do anything she's the beta's daughter! The alpha would kill us!" the worry in my voice made her back down just enough for me to remind her, "We only have two weeks. Two more weeks and we will never have to worry about her ever again." Lyla seemed displeased with my response

"Babycakes come with me, i have a spare uniform in my gym locker." She puts her hand on the small of my back and ushers me to the girls locker room. She opened the locker and pulled out and identical uniform and passed it to me. "I'll wait here until you're changed okay"

"Thanks Jaz, you're literally the best. I don't know what i'd do without you" I explained, the joy overpowering me. Tears start forming in my eyes "Jaz, how am I suppose to just leave you here? I'll miss you more than you'll ever realize" My voice trembling at this point.

"Emmie, you do realize I'm always here, a call away and a simple car ride away. Babes I'll come visit you almos daily i dont are the distance and then i can't you best belive we will be on the phone all day!" Jaz's enthusiasm bursting. "This pack doesn't deserve you, so you better go find one that does!" Seriousness flooding her voice. "Go change, and i'll even walk you to class silly girl."

With that I walk to one of the near-by stalls and start to change. The uniform a little lose on my body, due to Jaz being a few sizes bigger than I. Likely due to her being able to eat regularly and not just on scraps like me. Once i was fully dressed and out of the now disgusting uniform, i exit the stall and walk up to the sink and try to rinse my hair a little.

"Come-on we're gonna be late babes."

I finish with my hair and spin around

"What would we ever do without her?" My wolf asked nonchalantly, as if i didn't already know i would be lost without my Jaz. "We would be alone Lyla," I said pain in my voice

"You would never be alone silly girl, you've always got me" Lyla pointed out.

"I know, what would i do without either one of you" my link with Lyla cut short as I heard Jaz speak.

"See, good as new!" Jaz exclaimed as she walked towards me with a huge smile. She flew her arm over my shoulders and rushed me out and towards our first class, History.

"Try not to miss me too much" She joked as i took my seat she she rushed to take hers, across the room. Sitting in the noisy class waiting for the teacher to arrive I notice a familiar face walk in the class. Noah Fox, one of the Alpha's twin boys. One of the future Alphas.

Noah and his brother Liam were almost completely identical, their eyes were different. And to my dismay, crazy hot. They both had jet black hair, but Noah had piercing green eyes like a forest on a summer day. Green, alive and full of life. Liam had sofy baby blue eyes. Like the morning sky, soft calm and serene. Both could make a girl swoon from a mile away. Their chiseled features sharp enough to cut the air you breathe. His uniform clearly struggling to hid his bulging muscles. I'm not sure what it is about him that makes every girl melt.

As hot as these boys are, their attitude is plain nasty.

He finds his seat closest to me, stops and makes a disgusted grunt before he turns and sits down, when he does Mr Harrison, our history teacher, finally decides to make his appearance.

"Good morning class." He starts, right before walking to each desk to collect the previous nights assignment.

Class seems to finish faster than it began, and as the bell rings i link up with Jaz as we make our way towards the exit. I notice Noah's eyes lingering on me. His eyes almost black. I quicken my pace and rush out of the class.

And just as im leaving i hear that shrilling voice again

"Noah baby!" Riley. Noah's current girlfriend.

"Why does that girl have to shriek every single time she opens her fucking mouth. Damn, it sounds like a dying cat." Lyla's remark makes me chuckle.

"Its bone-chilling isnt it" I reply, still giggling

I can clearly see her sit on his lap and wrap her arms around his neck. Figures, the hot guys always go for psychotic girls. As shes plants a kiss on his lips his eyes find me. Looking me over, the blue fading away giving into the black eyes of his wolf. 

Whether it was because of Riley sitting directly next to his member, which was noticably getting more blood flow than usual, or because he noticed me caused my heart to skip a beat. What the fuck? Why did this Noah of all people have to make my heart jump every single time we made eye contact.

I turn to the door and make my way to my next class.

The day goes by in the blink of an eye, and before i know it Im exiting the school building and beginning my walk back home. When a hand grips my wrist, as i turn around I am met with a set of forest green eyes. 

My heart stops.

Liam Fox, Noah's brother 

"Where do you think you're going, reject?"
