All Chapters of Bound to the Wrong Alpha: Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

Lola’s POVEvelyn nudged my side with her elbow. “Lola, you’re staring again.”I blinked and quickly looked down at my tray. My mashed potatoes didn’t need that much attention, but they were a good excuse not to meet her eyes. “I wasn’t,” I mumbled, but we both knew I was lying.Across the cafeteria, Flint sat with a group of the prettiest girls in the pack. They were all over him, laughing at nothing, brushing their hair back, leaning in like they couldn’t get close enough. And him? He didn’t even blink. His face was cold, unreadable, like none of it touched him at all. He sat straight, hands loose on the table, like he wasn’t carrying the weight of the entire pack.They kept trying to pull him into their conversation, but there was this stillness about him. Distant. Untouchable. And somehow, that only made him stand out more.I looked away before anyone caught me staring. Girls like that had a chance. I was just the quiet one. The bookworm.

I watched their hands linked together and I felt hurt.I quickly turned and walked in the opposite direction.He had a girlfriend. I had to stop expecting anything else.The last class of the day was a combined session, which meant students from different levels were grouped together.Evelyn wasn’t there, so I walked in alone.My eyes scanned the classroom and landed on the two seats by the back window.
