Mated to the bully alpha

Naya's POV

"Did you hear? Alpha Liam Bloodton is dead!"

"Jeez, what happened to him?"

The mournful air hangs around school this morning. Gladly, the students have something else to talk about, not hate on me today.

The death of the Alpha has caused such an uproar that school has been discontinued for today, and everyone has to go home.

I walk to my locker and retrieve my books. Walking past the clusters of students, none of them even glance at me. Don't get me wrong, it's not like I am not bothered about the death of our Alpha, but honestly, it's the least of my problems.

My name is Naya Woods, and I'm the most hated girl in this high school. I'm a werewolf, like everyone else, but I never got my wolf. My sixteenth birthday was devastating because my transformation never came. When my mother noticed that I wasn't changing, she took all the money under her bed and carried me to a seer in the dangerous woods. Nothing came out of it, sadly.

My mother always prayed that I shouldn't suffer the same fate as her, but unfortunately...

My mother's story is different. She was a fierce werewolf, but one day it was like her wolf died. She never heard her or spoke to her again.

Since my mother and I didn't have wolves, we were the least members of our city pack. We were denied rights and protection that other werewolves received, but Mum has been strong. We have been pushing through. So I make up for my ability by being the best student in the entire school. I have never gotten less than an A in a test, but that has done very little for me. Everyone always looks at me and my mother like we have shit on us, they avoid us.

So, pardon me, if I don't care too much that the Alpha (whom my mother wrote to many times to help us) has died and I don't show sympathy...

I slam the door of my locker shut to see Sherry, my best friend, making a face at me.

"Oh my God!" I flinch. "Sherry, come on!"

"Naya, it was a joke!" She laughs.

She holds my hand and we start to walk down the hall, between the students. Sherry is beautiful, the boys love Naya. I have no idea why she is even friends with me. Her father is rich and she already got her wolf, she has no reason to be my friend.

"Did you hear, Alpha Liam Bloodton is dead?" She says.

"Yeah, that kind of sucks for him," I say without emotion.

"Why are you not as excited as everyone else?" She turns to me.

"I don't know, maybe because I barely slept last night." I sigh.

She stands in front of me, with her hands folded.

"You don't get it, do you? Everyone is not talking because the Alpha is dead. They are talking because his son just came to the city!"

I roll my eyes at her. If I don't care about the Alpha, why should I care about his son?

She raises her hands in confusion, "I don't understand you, sometimes. The girls are excited because there is going to be a meeting later today, everyone is invited."

Yeah, everyone. Except my mother and I.

"You know I can't go, Sherry." I sigh. " I don't have a pass, and besides. I am not interested in seeing this new Alpha."

"Come on, you know I'm not too, but the girls said that the dude is smoking hot and I want to see that first hand!" She squeaks with excitement. "But, I can't go, my sister is ill."

"Oh, Sherry..." I slap my face. I know what's coming.

"You have to go, okay? Just make sure that you see him and then we can discuss how fine he is." She smiles.

Before I can say anything, Sherry has taken out her pass from her bag and presses it into my hand. I know, my best friend is not a slut, she just likes to assess guys and their looks.

I know that she has zero interest in the Alpha's son because she has a massive crush on another Alpha's son, Zayn. She swears that she is going to marry him.

"Please, do this for me, okay?" She pulls my cheek.

"Sherry..." I drag an inhale.

"Thanks! I love you!" She kisses my cheek as she giggles.

I snort with laughter, Sherry is such a sweet girl.
