The Blood Wolf

Callie POV I hated this school sometimes. Everyone seemed pretentious in some way. I can't even remember why I agreed to transfer to this pack. The Alpha and Beta, and their spawn to be honest, are the worst. The Luna is the only good one. She is the only one that knows of my position before I came to this pack. Of course she wasn't supposed to, she just found out when I was leaving the limo from my parents. I told them I didn't want to arrive in the limo, but they insisted heavily. But we agreed to have it stop before going on pack lands and I transferred to a more standard car. I didn't want everyone to know that I'm the princess. I knew they would be suck-ups. But with that, that means they will show that they hate me for being new. I tolerate it most of the time. And I normally have a comeback each time they insult me. Including the Alpha and Beta children. Of course they are severely irritated by me. The biggest insult they give me is that I'm weak or faulty. Yeah, sure, Braydon. I'm the weak one between us. I don't plan to tell anyone. At least not yet. Thankfully, Luna Wane hasn't told anyone. Including Alpha Garrett. With her, I wouldn't be where I am now. A senior in high school and almost 18. My birthday is next week, quincidently on the last day of school. The only thing I hope doesn't happen is to find my mate in this pack. Especially after knowing their views of new people. The only thing I am happy to get on my birthday is my wolf. I have been having dreams of her and another wolf. Or at least I think it's her. I think she's the blood red one. Yes, it's a weird wolf color. But my mother's wolf is red. The other wolf I've seen in my dreams was black. There was something about him, I think it's a him, that draws me in. I was thinking about who this wolf is, since I never saw anyone shift into a wolf of this specific shade of black or grey. He could be someone that hasn't shifted yet- Someone cleared their throat. I looked up. Great. My science teacher, Mrs. Grand, ironic since she's not grand, was standing over my desk. "Yes, Mrs. Grand?" She definitely didn't like my tone or my casual response. "You need to pay attention, Miss Harold. Just because you don't live with your parents doesn't mean you are exempt from punishment." Yes, I didn't live with anyone. I loved that. But as she said, I could still get into trouble. Goddess, I hated her. "I'm sorry, Mrs. Grand. I was just thinking of the work." She looked at me suspiciously, almost like she was going to say, 'sure you were'. "I'm going over it now, if you'd mind joining everyone else." I nodded, not really caring. She went back to the front of class and continued teaching. She never really cared for me. She always seemed to think I was below her or something. Sure, Sharon. Sure. What I think made it better to me, was that I did the work perfectly, like the way she taught it. I already learned everything this school taught by the time I arrived. Being a princess allows you some great privileges. She hates how, even with tests, I never showed any signs of cheating. She tried once and it backfired. Everyone hates her. The main reason is that she gives work up til the last day. While every other class is just doing some basic things this week and next week, we still have to work in her class. The rest of the class, I pretended to pay attention. I thought of anything else. Even when given the worksheets she wanted us to work on, I worked on it and quickly finished it. After I finished it, as I've done with so many worksheets since she accused me of cheating, I waited until a couple of other people turned theirs in. When the bell rang at the end of class, I packed up and left for my next class. ___________ The rest of the passed by quickly. I walked through the halls confidently, even with the other pack members looking at me with disdain. At this point, I don't care what they thought of me. I've been living here since Sophomore year. If they don't like me after 3 years, I'm not going to lose sleep over it, not anymore. I did care more in the beginning, but again, they haven't changed their tunes. Breydon was at the front doors of the school with his future Beta, Garred. A**holes they are. I will admit, it does feel nice to actually be snarky with them, especially while they think I'm a lower rank than them. I smirked internally, waiting for them to say something. I was close enough to the door for them to know I was there, even with my aura being suppressed. They looked at me with a sneer. "Where are you going in such a hurry, weakling?" "Nowhere that concerns you, d*ckhead." I gave him a fake smile. "You know you can't say that to your future Alpha, b*tch," he growled. He almost looked like he wanted to try to discipline me, but he knew something was pulling him back. I have wondered why it seemed like no one tried to physically bully and hurt me. I wondered if my part of my aura slipped through. "Bye bye, boys." I acted like I was innocent compared to them, pushing past them through the doors. With everyone not trying to do anything to me was always interesting. Why was I not being touched by anyone, despite all of them hating me? Was Luna Wane part of it? I tried not to think about it too much. Thankfully, Braydon and Garred didn't follow me. They had before, to see where I lived, probably to vandalize my house. I didn't want to call it home, it wasn't really a home. It was just a place I lived in. A place I didn't have my parents or my brothers. My brothers were 8 years younger than me. I smiled at the thought of them. Since they were so young still, and thanks to some recent laws passed by my parents, I was going to be queen. Part of the training my parents wanted me to go through was spend a few years in a smaller pack, without them knowing who I was. I really didn't want to at first. But since coming to this pack, I was glad I did. I realized that everyone doesn't always care about you, especially when they don't know your rank. When I got to the house, I started to change into some comfortable clothes. I went to the kitchen and started to make some early dinner. When I finished making dinner for myself, I sat down in the living room and watched a random reality show. I sat on the couch for hours, not feeling like doing anything else. There wasn't any training for this week and next week for Seniors since it's the end of the school year. When I attended, I would tone down my strength to be more on their level. One in particular, Breydon wanted to spar with me, clearly to try and embarrass me. I picked up on it immediately, so of course, I made sure to win. Him hating me is because of this, that I know. When it got late enough, I decided to clean my dishes and put them away. I entered my bathroom and got ready for bed. I laid in bed and quickly fell asleep, into that dream again, about the blood red wolf and black one.
