Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

I arrived at the school gate of Shadow High School ten minutes early, but I chose not to walk inside yet. I hid behind a large oak tree, hoping to shield myself from the judgmental eyes of other students.School had become my least favorite place, a constant reminder of my differences and the painful truth I discovered when I was thirteen—I couldn't shift like other werewolves because I was wolfless.That revelation turned my life upside down in ways I never could have imagined.I became the different one. The wolfless are born with bad luck, they said. And it did feel like a curse.Since then, I could no longer catch up with my peers who had already shifted in terms of physical strength.Werewolves, especially teenagers in school, valued athletic abilities. Slowly but surely, my friends distanced themselves from me, and I became an outsider amongst my kind.I spent a long time getting used to my “difference”, and I realized I should not let my circumstances define me.I channeled m

"What?" I stared at Jessica in disbelief, my heart racing in my chest.The weight of her words bore down on me, filling me with confusion."We've heard the rumors," Jessica said, her voice filled with both amusement and superiority, as she casually pointed to her group of friends surrounding her. “You’ve been keeping yourself pretty busy today. Haven’t you, Shana?”All of her minions stood there, smirks etched across their faces.Shadow High was a hub of gossip and rumors where whispers spread quickly.Every week there seemed to be a different story that students focused on.But as an outsider, I had always remained on the outskirts, unaware of the intricate network of information swirling around me.I had no friends, after all. There was no one to gossip with."What rumor?" I asked in a barely audible voice, feeling a sense of unease creeping up my spine.Rolling her eyes, Jessica took out her phone from her pocket, a wicked smile playing on her lips. “Don’t even pretend like you don

My locker had been forcefully opened, evident by the fact that I couldn't even close it anymore.The lock had been wholly mangled and rendered useless, leaving me with a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach.An overwhelming wave of anxiety swept through me as I realized that whoever had my diary now possessed all my private and personal secrets.The thought of my deepest thoughts, the details of my bullying experiences, the words of encouragement I wrote to myself, and my heartfelt drawings being exposed to the entire school made my heart race.I knew that if someone decided to broadcast it, I would become the laughingstock once and for all.And why wouldn't they share that information?After all, I was the wolfless girl, the perpetual loser, the outcast who was the primary target of bullying.Amidst my panic, a memory flashed in my mind.It was the photo of me and Bear, my only picture of him.A sense of both comfort and concern washed over me as I contemplated the possible conse

This was my first time skipping class to run away from school. As an outcast, I couldn’t afford to be that rebellious kid.But it seemed like Lucas was quite experienced in doing so, thanks to the secret passageway in the school's basement.I couldn't believe my eyes as Lucas led me outside of the school, away from the prying eyes of teachers and fellow students."Where does your grandma live now?" I asked, trying to keep up with his brisk pace as we headed toward a parking lot adjacent to the school campus."The same old neighborhood," Lucas replied casually, glancing back at me. "It's just a short ride away."I scanned the parking lot, wondering which car belonged to Lucas.However, my question was soon answered when I nearly collided with him as he abruptly stopped in front of me.My eyes widened in disbelief as I peered over his shoulder."Please tell me that's not yours," I blurted out, stunned.With a confident grin, Lucas swung his leg over a sleek, black motorcycle, his hands

Sam went silent. He wouldn’t dare to challenge an Alpha.Lucas scolded him, his voice laced with frustration. "Sam, you can't keep blaming others for your own problems. Take responsibility for your actions!"Sam tried to argue, his voice defensive. "But Lucas, it wasn't entirely my fault. There were factors beyond my control."Lucas crossed his arms, his expression stern. "I don't want to hear excuses, Sam. We're a team, and we need to work together. I'm making the decision to switch you out for a player from the substitute lineup."A few teammates exchanged worried glances, realizing the impact this change would have on their upcoming match in just two days.One of them spoke up, concern evident in his voice. "But captain, Sam has been training as our first team member for a long time. Are you sure this is the right move? It’ll affect our playing.”Lucas's voice held firm conviction. "I've made up my mind. Sam's performance hasn't been up to par recently, and it's affecting our overa
