Werewolf

By the time I finally finished my face was bright red and my breathing was coming in short pants as I collapsed on my back on the grass beside my mother. She looks down at me.
“Just remember Kat, I am doing this for your own good. I go easy on you, the rest of the kids will be hard on you. Also I couldn’t exactly let you talk to me like that and get away with it especially in front of other students, you need to work with me here”
“But I didn’t do anything, he approached me not the other way around”
“Doesn’t matter next time, watch your tone” My mother says before walking off.
“Shirley, can I speak with you please” Alpha Ezra says, making me turn my head to the side to see him walking over to her.
“Of course Alpha,” My mother says. Alpha Ezra looks over at me dying on the ground and I look away.
Jasmine walks over handing me her drink bottle and I squirt some water into my mouth before s

I stayed in my room all night, my parents judging eyes were too much to handle so I went to bed early.
Getting up the next morning to my mother screaming for me to hurry up. I quickly raced around getting dressed and racing to the bathroom to brush my teeth.
“Did you sleep through your alarm?” My mother asks as I race toward the front door where she was waiting, keys in hand. My mother passes me an apple and I take it biting into it as I follow her out to the car.
My mother gave me one of her lectures about coasting through the middle, and not drawing attention to myself and Yadda yadda the entire drive to school. When I get to school I find Jasmine waiting for me.
“Hey Kit kat,” She says waving to me.
“Kit kat really?” I ask, at the nickname she has decided to give me.
“Yes I like it, we have math first up” She says and I groan. I hated math, the most boring subject and always gave me a

“Does the Alpha help with training?” I ask Jasmine.
“Yeah, he comes everyday, to help train us. Training is compulsory no matter age and gender” I watch as Angie, the girl Jasmine told me to avoid runs across the field towards the Alpha clinging onto him like a leech.
“Yeah Angie has a thing for the Alpha, seems to think he will choose her as his mate” Jasmine says and I nod. For some reason seeing her cling on to him annoyed me a little but I shoved it aside. I didn’t want any trouble with her especially if she is as bad as Jasmine said she is.
“How old is the Alpha?” I ask, he looked pretty young compared to my last Alpha who was in his forties.
“25, he is a good Alpha, strict but fair. A lot better than his father who was a complete a**hole”
“So he took over the pack when his father stepped down?” I ask. Jasmine shakes her head.
“No Alpha Ezra killed him and took over when he was 17”
“Geez a lot wouldn’t have liked answering to a 17 year old” I tell her but she shakes her head.
“No, everyone was glad to see Alpha Dean get taken down, he was cruel. Women weren’t even allowed to train back then, treated like animals and he used to kill anyone that stepped out of line, he even killed his own mate, and his second chance one” She says making me feel sick at her words.
“That’s terrible” I tell her and she nods.
“Yeah everyone hated him, things changed after Alpha took over, he made sure women could train to better protect ourselves, maybe that’s why he was so quick to have your family join our pack. Your mother would be an advantage to have and your father given that he has Beta genes” I nod.
“Maybe” I tell her just as Alpha Ezra looks in our direction, I drop my head and am thankful when the school bells ring, signalling the end of lunch. Jasmine and I make our way back to our lockers and grab our gym clothes out. Going to the bathrooms we quickly change before heading down to the ovals. Alpha Ezra and my mother were talking amongst a few of the teachers before silence sudden;ly feel overone and people started walking of tpo the designated groups. I followed Jasmine over to our age group and was a little shocked to see Alpha Ezra come over. Jasmine smiles at him when he approaches.
“Hey Alpha” She says.
“Hi Jasmine, you can sit out for today Kat to see how things run if you like” He says and I nod grateful I didn’t have to start training straight away.
“No she can train like the rest of them” My mother says coming up behind him. So much for sitting out.
“She doesn’t have to Shirley I can excuse her” Alpha Ezra says and I give my mother a pleading look. My mother presses her lips in a line but nods.
“Come sit on the bleachers and watch” Alpha Ezra tells me and I nod following him over to them before sitting down. I watch everyone train Alpha Ezra gets up a few times to help some of the teachers and to correct some of the students. When he comes back over though he looks down at me.
“How are you liking school so far?”
“It’s fine” I tell him, not really comfortable around him. I see my mother keeps looking over at me nervously.
“You train a lot with your mother?” He asks and I nod.
“Yes mum doesn’t like me missing training as you can see” I tell him and he nods.
“Good, well you can have today and tomorrow off but on wednesday you can start training” He says and I nod. I notice Angie come over stopping in front of me and I notice the glare she gives me.
“You should be training Angie, get back on the field” Ezra tells her.
“I was just seeing if you can come help me Ezra” She purrs and it’s obvious the crush she has on him.
“That’s Alpha! get back on the field now” He tells her pointing back the way she came. She looks down at me, her eyes narrowing before she saunters off. I knew she was going to make my life hell and I haven’t even spoken to her.
“Well I better get back out there Kat, I will see you around” He says walking off toward my mother who was now scolding Angie for walking off the field.
When training finishes my mother calls me over. I walk over to her and she grabs my arm pulling me aside. “For someone meant to be lying low you seem to be grabbing the Alpha’s attention Kat, we talked about this you need to stay away from him and Beta. We can’t afford for people to know just yet” She
tells me.
“Well maybe if you told them I wouldn’t have to hide” I tell her and it isn’t like I seeked him out, he approached me.
“Attitude young lady, I won’t handle disrespect” She says and I roll my eyes.
“Katya you may be my daughter doesn’t mean you will get away with slacking off, now ten laps of the oval” She says.
“What? Come on mum, you can’t be serious” I argue back when his scent hits me. Alpha Ezra walks up behind me and stops beside me.
“Everything okay?” He asks my mother, she bows her head in respect.
“Yes Alpha it will be, now go Katya” She says pointing to the edge of the field.
I take my jumper off before tossing it at her, she can’t be F*cking serious. Why Was she being like this?
“Make that 20” She calls out. I groan but go to the edge of the field cursing her name.
“Keep going Kat and it will be thirty, now start running” I roll my eyes and start doing laps. Jasmine does a couple with me before getting tired and sitting down. My legs burned by the time I did 15 and my lungs felt like they were about to explode. Stopping I brace my hands on my knees trying to catch my breath.
My mother blows her whistle grabbing my attention.
“5 more Kat,”
“This is bullSh*t” I mutter.
“You want me to add more” My mother calls out. I shake my head and continue running around the oval.
Alpha Ezra I noticed was in the bleachers watching and by the look on his face something had P!ssed him off.

By the time I finally finished my face was bright red and my breathing was coming in short pants as I collapsed on my back on the grass beside my mother. She looks down at me.
“Just remember Kat, I am doing this for your own good. I go easy on you, the rest of the kids will be hard on you. Also I couldn’t exactly let you talk to me like that and get away with it especially in front of other students, you need to work with me here”
“But I didn’t do anything, he approached me not the other way around”
“Doesn’t matter next time, watch your tone” My mother says before walking off.
“Shirley, can I speak with you please” Alpha Ezra says, making me turn my head to the side to see him walking over to her.
“Of course Alpha,” My mother says. Alpha Ezra looks over at me dying on the ground and I look away.
Jasmine walks over handing me her drink bottle and I squirt some water into my mouth before sitting up.
“Man and i thought my dad was strict, what you get in trouble for”
“Apparently my attitud
