I
reply.
    "You’re
Jocelyn?"
    "Yeah."
    "I'm Adam. This
is Geo, Luke and Jeremy." He points to each of his friends in
turn.
    "Nice to meet
you." I reply.
    He sits down next
to me. "There are lot of rumors going around about you and Alpha
Hall."
    I look at him
interested. "Rumors?"
    "Yeah, your
sister said you disrespected him and he ordered everyone to stay
away from you as punishment. And he won't let you run with anyone,
that you’re viewed as too weak."
    "Yeah. That's
true but I apologized."
    "Why did he bring
you to school?"
    I shrug. "Marta
was still eating breakfast when I wanted to leave, so he dropped me
off." I answer, getting attention from all the girls. For some
reason they’re all glaring at me.
    "Don't worry, I
got your back. Some of the girls in this school will be out for
your blood." He whispers.
    Shocked, I look
at him. "Why?"
    "Well, because
you got extra attention from the Alpha." He scoffs.
    I roll my eyes.
"Like I can help the fact he views me as the weak link in his pack.
He treats me like I'm going to break."
    He chuckles and a
girl in the front of the class turns towards me. "You make the
whole pack look bad. I don't know why he's letting you stay. I
heard he wants to keep the males away from you because he doesn't
want someone like you
    reproducing such
weak pups in his pack."
    I flinch from the
brutal truth. Is that what he was saying this morning? To tell him
if I interest any guys so he could put a stop to it. Making sure no
one chooses to mate with me.
    "Yeah, that rumor
is true, too." I whisper sadly. "He said that this
morning."
    "Well, I think
he's being a dick." Adam says, giving me a small one arm
hug.
    I smile and the
teacher comes in to start class. After class I walk down the halls.
Some people whisper behind their hands and others openly laugh at
me. I'm the joke, the pathetic weakling who the Alpha doesn't want
contaminating his or anyone else's gene pool.
    "Hey there." I
hear someone say and put their arm around me. "If you need a
shoulder to cry on, I'm your man."
    "Jason!" I see a
pissed off girl yell.
    "What? I'm done
with you! I want to know what a girl this small feels like. You
in?" He asks seriously. He looks me up and down making me feel
uncomfortable.
    "No, thanks." I
mutter.
    "Come on, baby."
He replies pulling me closer and whispering in my ear. "I promise
you'll like it."
    "Get off her."
Adam orders coming closer to us. Surprisingly, the guy listens and
takes his arm off of me.
    "Hey, man. Didn't
know she was spoken for."
    "Well, she is so
fuck off, Atkinson." Adam says shoving him back.
    "Why would you
fight over this freak?" A girl with a short skimpy skirt and
too
    much makeup asks
disgusted.
    "She's not yours,
Adam." A guys walks over with his arms crossed, entering our
circle.
    "You wanna bet,
Brody?" Adam argues stranding toe to toe with the guy named
Brody.
    "I do, fuck face.
She's mine." He growls. Both boys are the same height and weight.
Brody has dark blonde hair with brown eyes and Adam has black hair
and grey eyes.
    I see that both
guys are shaking and about to fight. I walk up to them and try to
wedge myself between them. "I don't think this is something to
fight about." I state, successfully getting in between them and
pushing them away from each other.
    "Don't touch
him." Adam orders picking me up and putting me behind him. I hear
the punches and step back just as Adam takes Brody to the
floor.
    The girl from
earlier with the short skirt growls at me and her fist makes
contact with the side of my face, knocking me down. I cup my cheek
and she leans down.
    "Stay away from
Adam, bitch." She warns standing back up.
    I turn to see
teachers breaking up the fight. Both boys are shaking and their
faces are bloody. Arms wrap around me and lift me up. I look and
see one of Adam’s friends, Geo, helping me. "You should have hit
her back."
    "I think I was
too stunned. I've never been hit before."
    He smiles. "How'd
it feel?"
    "It fucking
hurt." I mutter stroking my
