Chapter 2 Vetals High School
- Chapter 2
- AMBER'S POV
- I screamed in joy and twirled, feeling happy and capable that I was able to pass their exams. At least, I was good in something, other than chores.
- I broke the news to Alpha Gerald and June, and I must say, I was lucky that he allowed me without much stress. On the day I was leaving for Vetals High, I hugged and thanked my assistant maid for letting me know about an opportunity this nice.
- The journey to Vetals High was a long one, but I didn't mind as the tall buildings and wonderful sights kept me intrigued. A whole new life was awaiting me and I couldn't wait to have a taste of it. I was finally free from the bond and shackles that Alpha Gerald and June put me in.
- A few hours later, the driver got to the school and I paid with the little money I had saved for this day. The name of the school was boldly written and I could see students going in in groups, chatting and laughing with each other. Although there were others that were singles like me, so I didn't feel left out or sort.
- "Good afternoon sir. I am a new student and here is my I.D card. I was assigned to dorm 12, but I do not know my way around here." I said, trying to speak like a mature junior year student.
- The guard had a potbelly stomach and he seemed to carry it with pride. He collected my I.D and confirmed that I was a student of Vetals High.
- "You see that gate over there? Go in and that is where the dorms are." He directed, pointing his hand to the next building that was next to the school.
- "Thank you sir." I thanked him, smiling at him.
- I went over to the building and then walked down to the dorms. I was really excited as I walked down the hallway to dorm 12 and when I got there, I opened the door slowly to peep inside.
- "I think it's best you come in now." I heard a voice from inside.
- Then I went inside and the aura that filled my nostrils were strong. I could sense it that they were Alphas. They were three in the room and two of them were looking down at me, like I was trash, while the other one was on her bed, with he earphone on and her phone in her hand.
- "Uhm... Hello, I am Amber and you are?" I introduced myself, hoping for their names as well.
- "I am certain you are in junior year. Don't you know how to speak to your seniors?" One of them said, with a raised eyebrow.
- "I am sorry. I didn't know you are my seniors. " I apologized, lowering my eyes.
- "It's fine. I am Diane, she is Julie, and that is Glenda." Diane introduced the others on their behalf, although, Glenda didn't seem interested in what was going on at the moment.

- I had settled in and prepared to go to class as getting here today wasn't an excuse to skip class. I wanted to do well in my studies and if possible, be the top student.
- After asking for directions, I finally found my way to the class. My new classmates were all talking to each other. It seemed like most of them knew each other before coming to the school. A few minutes later, the teacher came in and taught us a few things, she also introduced herself as Mrs. Nolan. I actually was excited all through the class, because I couldn't believe that I was learning in a conducive place, that was also far from the reach of Alpha Gerald.
- My excitement and happiness was short-lived the next day when Mrs. Nolan came in and asked us to shift into our wolf form.
- "It's your turn, Amber." She said, with a smile.
- My heart began to beat rapidly as I knew that I couldn't shift into a wolf as my wolf was weak. I stood up and went to the front of the class, with my head bowed and I was fiddling with my fingers.
- "Come on. We are waiting for you." She urged, placing her books as she focused on me.
- "You can't shift into your wolf form?" She asked and the whole class gasped.

- That question changed my fate in the school. My classmates started bullying me, making fun of me and teasing me.
- A week later, i went to class as usual and Mrs. Phillips walked in to the class with high spirits.
- "Good morning class, we are going to have a duo contest on the field." She announced, with a smile that revealed her nice set of teeth
- We all moved to the field, it was a large filed and my heart was beating rapidly as I knew that it was going to be difficult to beat anyone here.
- Mrs. Phillips started pairing everyone and then she paired me up with Nina, a mean girl in class. I could see that Nina was making her way to where I was, but it wasn't time for the contest and I knew that she was coming over to my side to say or do something that would hurt me, so I was moving away, stylishly.
- I kept on moving until it was getting obvious that I was moving around.
- "Now, I want everyone to be still. Let's watch those that are in a duo right now." Mrs. Phillips instructed, looking at us all.
- I stopped in my tracks, but Nina had caught up with me before she stood still.
- "Look who my partner is. Anyway, let me tell you this. I am going to rip you into pieces, because I won't go
- easy on you. I can't say because you are weak, I shouldn't try out my best potential. So, try your best not to be killed by me." She scoffed and left.
