Chapter 3

Maia's P. O. V. The day passed more quickly than I had originally thought. I had AP biology, History and dozens of more boring classes but all I could think about was Blake. His hypnotizing sea green eyes, black hair that fell just above his eyes. Although it felt good for once to have a crush on someone other than a fictional character. I decided to put Blake aside for a moment and go to lunch. I sat on a table by myself obviously. Father would kill me if I ever had any friends whilst mother would be cheering in the background. I've already doomed myself by having a crush on Blake. "Well, we meet again" a familiar voice interrupted my thoughts. I looked up from my food to see a guy my age. Judging by his voice, he was the Bullhead who had called me names at the beginning of the day. Did this entire school have models as students? I Couldn't deny that he was handsome but he didn't hold a pinky finger next to Blake. His straight ash blonde hair was asymmetric to his head but it somehow worked well with his ocean blue eyes. By his physique and the way he treated other people I already knew what type of person he was. What did they call them again? I believe la Douche, ah yes. My first thought on seeing him is to get away. 'Danger!' Screamed my brain, I told it to shut up. "I'm Max Verlac, what's your name Sweetheart?" He asked me with a smirk that made his one freckle rise. I don't answer him, something in my gut tells me to stay away from this guy. Max ignores my silence, sits next to me and grabs my arm. I flinched from the pain and continuously blink my eyes, trying to calm down both my heart and myself. This isn't your father Maia, he isn't here right now "I asked for your name skeleton a*s, when I ask a question I expect an answer so . WHAT. IS. IT?" He asked applying so much pressure on my arm that it starts to hurt. " I don't know who you think you are but I'm pretty sure this is harassment" I snapped. He moves closer to me, grabbing my chin and forcefully making me look him in the eyes. "I do not give a Rats a*s about what this is. I'll excuse your behaviour just this once because you're new" Max glowered "Stop it you're hurting me" I shuddered with tears in my eyes whilst trying to push him away. But Max's smirk only intensifies as if he was finding pleasure in my discomfort. "Don't let me repeat. What is your name? I want to know whether you'd be coming with me to my house or yours" "Why will you need a babysitter tonight?" I glare trying to swallow up my fear. I'm pretty sure flames would be coming out of his ears if it were possible. "Let go. I don't want any trouble" I insist in honesty, "I just want to be left alone." And just like that he let go and pulled away as if I had just burned him. Stuttering an apology for touching me, he backed away from my table and almost tripped on his own feet in his attempt to escape. I didn't miss the way his eyes lit up in pure fear and how his breaths came out in short pants. What the hell was that about? Blake's P. O. V. I couldn't stop thinking about my mate. She was perfect, perfect blue eyes, perfect brown hair. Everything about her is perfect. "What's got you looking all lovey Dovey?" I heard a voice behind me. I turned around, only to see one of my best friends and soon to be beta, Percy. I grinned at the mere thought of her, not that she has even left my mind. "I found my mate" I informed and laugh at his dumbfounded reaction. "You found the future Luna?" I nod in response. "Then where is she? Why isn't she with you?" "I'm having a hard time with her, she isn't one of us" His jaw dropped, "how could an Alpha's mate not be a werewolf? What level of species is she?" He questioned referring to the species chain similar to the food chain except it doesn't depend on the what eats what. The species chain shows the most powerful creatures to the least. "Low" I state. "Vampire?" "Lower" "Ghoul?" "lower" I sigh "Zombie?!?" "Not that low! She's human, Maia's a human" "That sucks, you can't give up though. The moon goddess paired you two up for a reason. Just as she paired Becky and me, she can be a know it all at times especially with the pregnancy" Despite almost being nineteen, it wasn't rare for werewolves to have a family by that age. "Yeah but there's something off, I have a feeling that Maia's hiding something big, something she thinks she can handle but won't be able to for a long time" "She's pregnant too?" I whacked the back of his head. "Goddess, I'm just kidding, no need to break my head." He said, he was about to say something else but his phone rang before he could. "Yeah.. Okay" he muttered. "What's wrong?" I asked. "Wacky Maxy that's what's wrong" Wacky Maxy was a nick name given to the one and only pack trouble maker, Max Verlac. He's a player and the third in command's brother. That's the only reason my father or I haven't banished him from the pack. Everyday, he would cause any sort of trouble he could think of, that ranges from touching a girls butt to playing pranks on rogues and leading them to my pack. "I'm going to tell you something but you can't rip his head off" Lesson from Mr. Blake kids, if someone tells you that you can not do something, you're going to want to do it anyway even though someone warned you not to. "I'm not gonna rip his head off" I swore. "Max is picking on your mate" 'I'm gonna rip his head off, if you won't' my wolf warned. I smiled sweetly at Percy and pointed at my face. "See I'm not going to rip anyone's head off" I continue smiling to hide the wolf canines that were begin to change. I looked at my left wrist. "Would you look at the time" I say to my friend "it's getting late and I'm hungry" 'For blood' Jace advised. With that I start heading to the lunch room ignoring him as he yelled "you don't even have a watch!" I opened the door and sure enough, Max was sitting next to my mate which made my blood boil. It began bubbling with anger as he took Maia's arm which had the bruise. "stop it you're hurting me" she says and tried to pull away which only resulted to him increasing his grip, that was the last straw. I felt my eyes turn black, my wolf was taking over 'Unless you would like to be castrated without requiring a vasectomy right now and right here, I would advise you let. go. of. my. mate' I growled at Max through mind link. Max's eyes widened in realization as he looked at me and started to get up but not before leaning towards my mate and whispering something in her ear. Oh he was so going to pay for that. Sweet Revenge meet Max Verlac. Maia's P. O. V. "I'll be back" Max whispered before leaving my table. I shivered from his touch. Blake ran towards me as the player left. how did he get here so fast? "Are you okay? Did he hurt you?!?" He questioned worriedly, his eyes flickering from the top of my head to the bottom of my shoes. "I'm fine, you can go now," I stated, half of me annoyed but the other part mentally awed at his concern. Blake shook his head, no. "I'm not letting you sit here alone on your first day. The least I could do is introduce you to my friends and you sit with us" I shook my head. Man can't this guy take a hint? Fictional boys aren't this annoying. "I like to be alone, but thanks anyway" "Okay" he replied and left. I should have known that I hadn't gotten rid of him for long. "Why are you like this?" I asked him, trying to chew on my cafeteria lunch which only seemed to be getting bigger and bigger in my mouth. "Like what?" I stared at him, trying to decide if he was either stupid or an i***t. I came to the conclusion that he was both as I looked at the chair he had taken from a nearby table. "You said you wanted to be alone on that table no? By getting a chair and sitting approximately 20cm away from you, facing away from the table, I am technically not sitting with you thus not invading your personal space. I am simply a humble student spending some time in a school cafeteria" "Whatever you say Jan, Whatever you say" I covered my mouth trying to hide my smile. "Who's Jan? I'm Blake!" * Finally after a few more agonizing lessons. My first day was over. Blake walked me outside despite me protesting about leaving me alone. "Thank you" I mumble, not looking at him directly. "For not leaving me by myself" It felt good to not be ignored for once in my life, to actually talk to someone. Maybe humans aren't so bad. "No problem Maia, I loved meeting you" Blake winked at me. I blushed and looked down. "I'll see you tomorrow?" I announced. "I think we'll be in each others lives a lot more in the future" he states before leaving without telling me what he meant by it. I shook my head and looked at the time. 6:53 p.m. no No NO. I prayed to God above that I was in need of a pair of glasses due to not being able to read numbers properly. I lost count of the time as I began talking to Blake. I'm dead. I opened the door, only to be faced by my dad,"where were you?" He asked "I-I...." He looked at me with an expression I've grown used to, hatred, my own father hated me. "I saw you with that boy you little skank. What did I tell you about making friends?!" "I-I'm Sorry, he wasn't- I wasn't- " I stuttered. "You think life was hard before? just wait till I show you what happens when you disobey me.I'm going to hurt you so much you wouldn't be able to walk tomorrow" he warned and raised his hand to slap me so hard I fell on the ground. My eyes widened in fear, oh god how did he find out about Blake. I had to do something to get his mind off of him. I couldn't risk another person getting hurt again because of me. "I lost track of the time, you oaf" I yelled. He stopped,"what do you just say?" I don't answer. "I just asked you something, you brat!" My so called father screamed in my face, grabbing me by the hair and making me look at him.. "I'm sorry", he took a step back then grinned evilly at me as he took off his belt that he used as his whip and unfortunately I knew what was about to happen next. I don't know for how long I kept screaming and crying with tears running down my face. But I do know one thing that the pain only ended when I did I blacked out. My last thought was that I hoped my father forgot about Blake. And that hopefully, Blake forgot about me.
