Chapter Nine

1806 Words
KENDRA A thin crowd of students trickles across the front yard of the school, waving and calling out to friends as they converge on the front doors. Wading through the loud, crowded hall, I am welcomed by a hard slap on the face that manages to send a sharp pain through my sensory nerve endings. Whipping my head up to retaliate, I meet Ellie's lethal eyes flashing cat at me, her arms wrapped on her chest as she glares at me with resentment. She is flanked by Natasha and Kaila who are smirking behind her. “You little wh.ore! How dare you?” Her red polished acrilic nails straining to sprout into claws. I visibly swallow in fear slowing backing away. Students are starting to round us like it’s one of their morning entertainment program. Phones flying out from their pockets and backpacks to record my humiliation like they always do. Before I can defend myself, she slaps my other cheek, causing my head to move to the left. “ This is for going close to what is mine.” Landing two more thunderous slaps on my face, she says, “ And this is for touching him.” Kaila and Natasha splutters with laughter when I howl out in pain. They look at me with amusement and contempt. The rest of the students join in, all of them laughing at me. Teenagers are evil! To my horror, I can feel tears stealing out from the corners of my eyes, and I bite my lip hard, willing them not to fall. “Please, Ellie, I don’t want any trouble.” I mutter, my voice shaky but apparently loud enough for several student to hear. “ Move... Please." Kaila exchanges a surprise glance with Natasha, “Oh. She’s bold. I’m impressed.” Kaila says as they burst into another batch of laughter. Ellie takes two strides forward, caging me against the wall. Her eyes changing to crimson red. “What gave you the impression that Chase will want a girl like you?” She mocks, sizing me up. “ Have you seen yourself in the mirror?” She chuckles and takes a step back. “He may amuse himself with you for a time but It’ll always be filths like you who'd take the strain of his desires and then get thrown away.” “She seems to be forgetting where she belongs.” Natasha chips in. “In the dirt?” Kaila adds, more like a question. “Girls, why don’t we show this wolfless slut her place?” She asks, looking between both of the girls, malicious glee playing on their faces like they have something planned out for me already. My first instinct is to run, to bolt straight out of the halls and run as far away as I can, from all of the pain, Stormhalt Moon Pack, from Ellie, from her wing ladies, from Chase, from the group of kids gathered around me, all of them laughing and making amusement off my humiliation. I am sick of it and I want it all to stop. I swallow hard, anxiety churning in my belly at the thought of what she might do to me. Have me roll on the dirty floor? Empty a cup of cold milkshake on me? Yeah! I’ve been fvcking treated worst than that. This is the time I’d really use Anna’s help as always, but she’s out of sight and my magic bracelet is still with Chase. “On your knees, slut.” She commands. She’s enjoying the power she has over me. “Get on your fvcking knees.” There is so much venom in her tone and it sends shivers down my spine. Playing deaf, i look up at her to meet her angry eyes that remains flaming red and I know my eyes must be huge, begging her to back off. “I don’t think she heard you.” Natasha voices behind her and I can hear humor in her voice. “ I think she has added deafness to her many flows.” “Then get her on her knees.” Ellie hisses, her voice suddenly impatient. Walking forward, they both hold my shoulders, forcing me down to my knees. I land harder than I meant to, and the concrete of the hall floor bruises my knees, bringing tears to my eyes. I feel a cold thick, slimy and putrid liquid slushing down my body. The small crowd around us boos. When the liquid hit my mouth and touches my bud, it tastes like milk, spoilt milk, causing my stomach to turn over like an acid. I feel sick. “ How does it feel to be on the ground bathed in a spoilt milk, loser?” she asks darkly. “Next time you’d think twice before crossing me.” The nausea I’m fighting to keep down rushes up, hot and burning as the last drop of milk touches down my hair. I can’t stop it , and I don’t even want to. I hiccup as i open my mouth and vomit all over her red glittery heels. I hear gasps and hisses. Ellie shrieks and jumps back, “fvcking retard!” She growls, her voice beastful. She lands a kick on my head. I feel feint and dizzy as I collapse to the ground. The hall is spinning around me. Her red shoe comes up again aiming another kick to my head. “Ellie!” The voice that reverberates down the hall is so familiar to me that I would know it from anywhere. Alpha freaking Leo. “What the hell do you think you’re doing? Back off! Now!” he roars. He looks down at me and looks up at Ellie, his eyes dark, cold and menacing. His power rolls off him in waves, smothering the air... Causing Ellie to take a step back. I can feel that power sticking to me like another skin layer, but instead of being scared like the others, I am excited. The students disperses in high speed, maybe because of the terrifying stories surrounding him or the stench of rage building up inside him. Everyone seem to fear him, except me. Deep down, I have a feeling he's not the monster they all think he is. Ellie’s shoes have also disappeared from my view. They are gone! But I am too weak and nauseous to get up. I don’t know for how long I can keep my eyes open. My head is pounding, and my mouth feels cottony. I struggle to keep my eyes open as Alpha Leo's face wavers over me. “Kendra, are you alright?” my vision of his face is blurry but I can see worry masked on his face. “Kendra, can you hear me?” It sounds as if he’s talking from down a long hallway, the echo of it just barely reaching my ears. The world is spinning sickly around me as I manage to stretch a weak hand to reach his gorgeous face. Cupping his cheek, I run my delicate hand on his dotted stubble. “Alpha...” I mumble. I feel a soft smirk hit his face. “Come on, let’s get you out of here.” His muscles flex as he effortlessly carries me up and slings me over his broad shoulder. He carries me out of the building, and walks towards the parking lot. That is all I remember as I pass out. When I wake up, I’m completely disoriented. I feel like I don’t know where I am, my head is heavy as if my brain has been replaced with a concrete. My mouth feels dry and sour like I have acid and vinegar in it . My eyes are sticky when I try to open them, and I have to blink several times before I get them all the way open, sitting up slowly i realize I don’t know where I am. The last thing I remember is Alpha Leo taking me to the parking lot. Where the hell am I? Looking around, I notice that I’m in a crystal cave with a beautiful waterfall barely disguising the entrance to the cave. Where is this place? My jeans and top is neatly laid on a rock. I look down at myself in horror. I’m in nothing but a T-shirt, a big white t-shirt that smells like Alpha Leo when I sniffled it. My heart rises into my throat, and I fight down panic. He has seen my nakedness. All of me… Forcing myself to stand up from the heap of hays I’m lying on, I run a hand through my hair and stalk towards the entrance to view the surroundings. Maybe I should just lie back and pretend to still be asleep, but my curiosity won’t stop driving me. Before i reach the entrance, I see his massive paw print on the ground still fresh. He hasn’t gone far… I hear footsteps nearing the cave and a sense of panic claws at my throat. Straining my eyes through the waterfall, I see Alpha Leo coming back with plump berries in his hands. I quickly run back, maintaining the same sleeping position from when I woke up. Immediately he walks in, I deliberately release a loud snore. He gives a throaty snort of laughter. “ congratulations! That’s just about the worst fake snore… Get up! I prepared some herbs for your wound.” I sheepishly scramble to my feet and awkwardly stands at a corner as he made his way past me and walk through the cave to a massive stone lying at a corner with tons of brown Calabash on top. I follow silently. I gulp, summoning the courage to ask him a question that’ve been on my mind since I woke up. “Did you take my cloths off?” The atmosphere grows thick as my question hangs stupidly in the air. He freezes in place. Gradually, he turns to face me. “ yes, Kendra.” He answers with a sense of detachment. “ And that is because the one you had on was wet and I happen to have a spare in my car.” His eyes sear into me as he speaks and I feel my core throb in arousal. “So… did you perhaps see something… interesting?” I teasingly sink my teeth on my lower lip. His eyes darkens as they linger on the movement of my tongue before sliding back up to hold my gaze... He clears his throat to shake himself from his reverie. “Are you hungry? I brought you some berries.” I get the feeling he's trying to change the subject. “If you’re going to feed them to me with your fingers, then I’m ravenous.”
