The Alpha and his burning desire

Chapter 2

He disappeared into an adjacent hallway. Meghan grabbed her bag which was nearby and ran back to her classroom. The bell rang as she walked through the door. Aston and Joanna sat next to each other and saved a place for Meghan right behind.

This first lesson was dedicated to the history of werewolves. Although Meghan ordinary loved this course, she, who was also a particularly good student, could not stay focused on what the teacher was saying. Johanna noticed her unusual behavior.

On a paper she writes to her "Hello the earth calls Meghan, you took a long time to come back from the corridors". Meghan reads it and replies “I did ‘Great Meghan’ again. Guess who ran like crazy right into Jax's arms.” Johanna retrieved the paper and let out a chuckle followed by a stifled laugh. This year was already shaping up to be a long one.

Lunchtime arrived and the trio made their way to the cafeteria while Aston and Johanna made a point of teasing Meghan. She, who was of a discreet nature, tended to multiply the most comical clumsiness as each other. And starting the first day of school in this way was, without a doubt, her greatest achievement.

No sooner had the trio put their trays on a table than a fourth tray landed next to them. Leo, one of their best friends who was in another class, had just joined them. Meghan could not help but jump into his arms. She had hardly seen him all summer because she had worked in her parents' store during all the holidays. Leo and Aston had, for their part, organized sports trips together every weekend. “Leo! we did not see you this morning we missed you! ". The relationship between Meghan and Leo was more than friendly without being a flirt. She was between the two without either of them trying or daring to try anything. Leo was a charming young man with a devastating smile. Also born Omega, he could easily have been taken for a Beta or even an Alpha by his stature. His hazel eyes and athletic physique made him one of the most coveted boys in high school. Although he did not look at other girls the way he looked at Meghan, that did not stop him from having a high conquest number under his belt.

Still hugging Leo, Meghan caught a glimpse of Jax's group over her shoulder. A shiver ran through her. He was looking at her. His gaze, piercing, planted in hers. He was sitting on the stairs, his elbows on his knees and his hands placed in prayer against each other. Melania, Daryl and Hector, taken aback by Jax's stare, eventually turn their gaze to Meghan and her friends.

Meghan felt a shiver run down her spine again. She jumped when she saw Jax suddenly get up and leave the cafeteria. This boy was for her a thick mystery. But she could not take her eyes off his figure as he walked away.

Meghan released her grip and sat down in her seat. Johanna wanted to know all the details of her encounter with Jax, as if that was the gossip of the year. Johanna was outgoing and full of life. Blue eyes, pretty ash blond hair and a warrior physique. A real Beta girl. Meghan wondered 'Had she ever noticed, she who was enthusiastic about love stories and gossip, the look that Aston posed on her for a few years already?'.

At the exit of the cafeteria, Meghan left the group to go and put her books in her locker. On her way, she remained thoughtful and thought, for a moment, of the green in Jax's eyes. About the way she had caught up with him and the nickname he had given to her. Little omega. Meghan found it reductive. She, who was usually repartee, had not even managed to answer him, as this meeting had marked her. She kept on walking, her gaze fixed on the ground. Little omega, what if I called you very sexy Alpha?

“I would love to, but you wouldn't be the first.”

Meghan POV

Once again, I had done what I did best: humiliate myself like a grown-up. Did I speak aloud? certainly. Did Jax heard? it was a certainty. He was leaning against the wall adjacent to my locker. A smirk at the corner of his lips.

For a moment, I considered throwing myself fully into my locker and closing the door behind me.

“Are you following Meghan? one meeting and you cannot get away from me anymore? an omega in love with a future Alpha, not very original. ".

What nerve! he was the one who were next to my locker. In half a day this guy was knocking my brains out. His presence, his aura and his stunning physique were only inhabiting my thoughts. I always knew he was an incredibly attractive boy, but I felt like I was discovering him for the first time.

“And then it's not very classy to flirt with a boy when you have a boyfriend.”

What was he talking about? Me, a boyfriend? Or he thought that Leo and I...?

“Would we be jealous Mr. the future Alpha? »

To see his face when I answered him, we can say that he did not expect me to stand up to him.

“You know me wrong, little omega. I can only be jealous of what I cannot obtain, and you can imagine that I am rarely jealous. »

What did he mean by that? That no girl can resist him? though, that does not really surprise me. At this idea, I felt a twinge in my heart. He would never consider taking an interest in me. His fated mate is likely to be a she-wolf from an ally pack, daughter of Alpha or Beta. Not a common omega. For some reason, this thought deeply saddened me as much as it annoyed me.

Stung, I put my books in my locker and slammed the door. I turned on my heels when a hand holds me again.

"You don't turn your back on an Alpha, didn't your omega parents teach you that?" he said, his gaze cold.

I have a certain resistance to teasing or bullying but I cannot stand having my family touched. They are my refuge. Anger overwhelms me. Who did he think he was? his status did not give him all the rights. Well, yes it does. But what right did he have to talk like that about my parents?

I take his hand that had gripped me. In contact with my fingers against his skin, a gentle warmth came over me followed by a deep shiver. But anger took over again and I chased his hand from my arm.

“My parents are wonderful people from whom an Alpha would have things to learn. Good day, your majesty.” I replied as my eyes began to fill with tears in anger. I was not waiting for his answer to quickly walk away.

I now had the certainty that our pack would later be managed by a complete asshole.
