Chapter 1

Allison's P.O.V

The next morning, I wake up to my alarm going off next to me. I groan and roll over and press the button to turn it off. I also look at the time and it's 6:45. Why is my alarm set to... wait I totally forgot. It's my first day at a new school. Ever since I moved from New York to Northern Michigan, I have been nervous. What if no one likes me and I end up like one of those girls who has no friends and has to sit at lunch all by myself? Great, this is probably going to be the worst school year ever. Suddenly, I hear a knock on the door and I hear my mom's voice.

"Allison it's time to get up. It's your first day at North Manchester High School and you don't want to be late." Mom says.

"I know, I'm up." I lie.

"I know you're still in bed. I don't hear any footsteps."

Gosh, why does she know me so well? It's like she's a psychic or something.

"Ok, ok I'm going." I say.

I get up and head to the bathroom. I then strip down and turn the water on and get in. I let the water run down my body and relax my muscles. I then grab my shampoo and lather some on my hands and then scrub it in my hair. I then did the same with the conditioner. I rinse it off and then grab my lavender vanilla body wash and apply it all over my body. I then rinse off and get out of the shower to dry off. I grab a towel off the counter and dry my hair and then dry my body and wrap the towel around my body. I walk out of the bathroom to get dressed. I walk to my drawer to grab underwear and a bra and put them on and then I head to my closet. I pick out a white tank top, my grey sweater that says New York in big black words, and my light blue jeans. I put those on and then put on my comfy brown boots. After that I walk out of the closet and head to my bathroom to do my hair. For my hair since I have long dark locks, I decide to curl the ends. I then apply a little mascara since I don't need a lot and a tad of eyeliner under and above my eyes. I then put on my lip gloss. I then head out of my bathroom and head back to the closet to grab my dressy gray scarf and wrap it around my neck since it will be a little chilly here in Michigan. I then grab my purse and car keys and head downstairs. When I get downstairs, I see my mom making breakfast. When I walk into the room, mom looks up at me and then looks at what I'm wearing. Oh no, she's going to judge me on my clothes.

"You look cute today." Mom says with a smile.

I'm shocked. Did my mom just compliment me on my clothes? For the first time, she actually thought I look cute. Back then in New York, I used to be a little sloppy with clothes. I would sometimes just wear a t-shirt and leggings.

"Mom, are you okay?" I ask.

"Yeah, why?" Mom asks as she moves eggs and bacon to a plate.

"Well, you just said I look cute today, and this is not cute. I'm wearing my New York shirt that I got in New York and ripped light jeans which to me is really sloppy." I reply.

"Well, you don't look that bad today. You actually cleaned up today which I'm glad because it's your first day at a new school which you would want to show a good first impression."

"Yeah, I know and same. I will have to make friends here so I have no choice."

"Good, so eat up and don't be late for school." Mom says.

I sit down and set my food in front of me. I eat up and then head out to my car which is an Accent Se Sedan which I love. It's small and it's blue which is the perfect size for me. I get in to start the car. I pull out and head toward my new school I will be attending a whole year. As I am driving to school, I look around at the surroundings. It's nothing like New York. There's lots of trees and not a lot of open space with not many people around. I will definitely have to get used to this. When I pull up to the school, I see lots of students walking in. I pull into a parking spot that is close to the campus and get out. I grab my bag and head toward the school. As I do that, I notice some guys standing against the railing where the stairs are looking at me and whistling. I then see some girls who look like they are dressed up as sluts who are glaring at me. I sigh and ignore them as I head inside. As I enter the school, I head to the office to get my schedule. I walk in and walk to the front desk with a medium age woman with brown eyes and light brown hair. She looks up at me and smiles. She seems friendly.

"Hello, how can I help you?" The lady asks.

"I'm new here and I need to get my schedule." I reply.

"OK, what's your name?"

"Allison Reese Parker."

"Oh yes. You have transferred from New York."

She pulls out the file and searches my name. She then pulls it out and hands me my schedule.

"Huh yeah, how did you know?"

"Your mom called here to enroll you."

"Oh yeah."

"Well, have a nice first day."

"Thanks."

I turn around and head out the door. As I walk down the hallway, I notice the halls are now getting quieter. I look down at my schedule to find what number my locker is. I hurry down the hall to get to my locker. When I get down to my locker, I unlock it with the code that is on my schedule and opens it. I then take out the books I need for my classes and put them in there and then grab my math one since I have Pre Calculus first period. If you didn't know, I'm also smart so I'm really good at pretty much anything except U.S history which I hate. I just can't stand learning about how the world was made. I'm like why do we even need to learn this stuff? It's not really useful to me. I then close the locker and turn to walk down another hallway when I bump into what felt like a wall. I use my balance and everything including me falls on the floor.

"Shit." Says a husky voice.

I try to pick up my books and get back up but I am stopped when the guy in front of me surprisingly gets down on his knees and picks up my books for me. I look up at his face and my eyes freeze and it's like the whole world stops. He is the most gorgeous or you could say the hottest guy I've ever seen. He is very tall and muscular. He has piercing blue eyes and dark brown hair which look to be a jagged cut on both sides. I stop staring at him and nervously took my books from him after I get back up. 

Which such a hot guy in front of me I didn't know what to do next. 

"Th.. thanks. I better go." I say nervously and desperately wanting to get away from him to prevent me from saying or doing something stupid.

"Wait, I!" The gorgeous boy yells at me but I walk away without him being about to finish his sentence.

I head toward my class and open the door. As I open the door, the whole class is silent and everyone looks at me. Some students are whispering, and some are laughing. I ignore them and walk over to the teacher.

"I'm new here," I say showing her my schedule.

She nods.

"Alright I'm Mrs. Ross and there are a couple of seats in the back you can take." Mrs. Ross says as she points to the back.

I nod and head to the back row. I take the closest seat and sit down. I set my books down and look up to see some girls I recognized from outside staring at me and having a silent conversation. I start to listen to what they're saying.

"Look at what she's wearing? Where does she think she's from?" One girl asks.

"She looks like a slut to me." Another girl says.

"I wondering how many guys she has slept with?"

"Same maybe that's why she has transferred."

I roll my eyes. They think I'm the slut. Look at what they're wearing?

"Don't listen to them. They're just a bunch of sluts who think they run this school." A girl voice says next to me.

I look to my right to see a girl with long black hair and hazel eyes looking at me. I nod with a smile.

"I'm Sarah Anthony by the way and you are?" Sarah asks.

"I'm Allison Parker." I reply.

"Oh wait you're that transfer student from New York who moved because of personal stuff."

"Wait how did you know?"

"Everyone knows. It spreads throughout the whole school."

Great now everyone knows who I am. Not that it's bad, but it's not a great way to have a first impression here. Also, no wonder why there's so much whispering going on.

"So why did you move here?" Sarah asks.

"I really don't wanna talk about it," I reply.

"I understand."

Suddenly, the teacher starts talking and we face the board as she starts the lesson. After class, I head out of the classroom. I suddenly hear footsteps behind me and I turn to see Sarah.

"Hey," Sarah says.

"Hi," I say giggling at her cheerful mood.

"Do you want to sit with me and my friend at lunch?"

"Huh, sure."

"Great, wait what class do you have next period? Maybe we have a class together."

I hand her my schedule as I in get to my locker.

"Great, you have English four with me next period and then the fourth period you have U.S History with me," Sarah says.

"Cool, what about the third period?" I ask.

"Track." 

I nod. 

"What about you? "

"Art." 

She nods.

Suddenly, I hear loud voices down the hall and I look to see the gorgeous guy I saw a little while ago. He is leaning against a bunch of lockers with one other guy. The other guy is really hot but not as attractive as the one I met earlier. He has some of the same characteristics like the other guy though like his light blue eyes. Besides that, he has light brown hair which is a jagged cut on top of his hair with the sides of the hair left short. Anyways, both guys must be friends. I then see those two sluts that I saw last period walking over to them. The blonde who's wearing a short tight skirt and a pink crop top that is showing a little of her belly button is also showing cleavage. She stands in front of the guy I saw earlier and places her hand on his chest and looks up at him with goo-goo eyes. I scuff and look at Sarah who is now standing next to me and look at one of the guys with lust in her eyes. I smirk.

"Ooh someone has a crush," I say.

"What?" Sarah asks looking at me. "No hum..."

"You can tell me."

"I know but I don't want to tell you here... I'll just tell you later..."

"OK."

We look back at the scene that's going on. I never thought I would see this again. It never ends. There always has to be the most popular girl going after the hottest guy in school.

"That's Brooke Benson by the way and the girl next to her is Bridget Baldwin." Sarah says.

I nod.

"And the guy you are staring at. That is Chase Matthews. The hottest and most popular guy in school. He's also a big player and the quarterback of our football team the Titans." Sarah says.

Wow, no wonder so many girls want him. He has everything a girl would want. As I watch, I see  disgust in his face and he pushes her away. My eyes go wide in surprise. You never thought a player like him would do that. I then listen clearly to what he says to her.

"Brooke, we used to be a thing last year but now that's over forever. I don't have a thing for you anymore. I have moved on." Chase says.

My eyes widen. They used to be a thing.

"Wait, they dated?" I ask.

"Yes, but only for the first semester of last year and then he broke it off. I don't know why though but I'm assuming it's because he became a player." Sarah replies.

"Or it could be because of the way she dresses."

"Yeah probably."

We both laugh and look back at the scene.

"What do you mean it's over and that we aren't a thing anymore? We're perfect together!" Brooke yells.

Chase scoffs with a smirk and looks up at her.

"Yeah right we are not even close to a perfect couple and besides I already found someone else," Chase says.

"And who might that girl be?" Brooke asks.

"I don't know.. I don't know her name yet."

She scoffs.

"Of course, you don't know. Last year for a whole semester you didn't care who you played with. You used them and then tossed them away like a piece of trash!" Brooke yells.

Everyone who's around who is watching the scene gasps in shock from what she said out loud. Chase looks around at everyone who's watching and suddenly his eyes land on me and he smirks. I get nervous and look away. He looks back at Brooke and speaks.

"I'm not like that anymore. I've changed and for a reason." Chase says.

"And that is?" Brooke asks.

"I already told you. It's a girl."

"OK, then who is this girl? What does she look like? Is she new?"

"As I said, I don't know her name, but this girl is beautiful and she's nothing like you. She even dresses better than you."

He looks her up and down with disgust. She scoffs.

"You know this isn't over," Brooke says backing away.

"OK, whatever," Chase says.

"I'm serious, you will be mine."

"OK, say whatever you want but it will never happen."

She groans and runs off furious with Bridget behind her. 

Suddenly, Chase looks at us again. He stares at me this time. 

For some reason I'm curious to who this girl he likes that hes talking about. Why do I care anyways? Am I jealous? I shake it off and use eye contact with him and look away. 

"We probably should get to class," I say.

"Yeah," Sarah says.

I grab my English book, close my locker, and head down the hall. We walk into the class and sit down in the back with Sarah and one of her friends. She introduces me to Sadie Burke. She is really nice and pretty. She has blonde hair that goes down her back and blue eyes. Class starts when the teacher arrives and we turn toward the teacher. 

After class, I head back to my locker to drop my books off. I had with Sadie and Sarah to the cafeteria for lunch. I get in line with Sarah while Sadie sits down at the lunch since she brought lunch. As I do that, I turn to see Brooke and Bridget walk in. They head over to where Chase and his friend are and I roll my eyes. Don't they ever give up? I turn back around and when it is my turn, I grab a tray and buy my food. I order a ham and cheese sandwich and water. Sarah and I then head to where Sadie is sitting. I set my tray down and sit down across from Sadie and next to Sarah.

"So now that we are together and can talk what made you move here?" Sadie asks.

"Hum..." I say as I open up my box with my sandwich in it.

"She told me earlier that she doesn't want to talk about it," Sarah says.

"Why, we are your friends now. You can tell us anything." Sadie says.

"I know but the reason was about my past and it's very personal," I say.

"We can keep a secret," Sadie says.

I sigh they're not going to give up.

"Fine, if you really want to know, it's because of the past relationships I had," I say.

"Oh, I thought it was something else like dealing with your family or something else," Sadie says.

"No."

"Alright, so what happened?" Sarah asks.

"Well, they cheated on me. Every time I dated a guy for a while, I end up heartbroken so that's why I moved here. I'm sick of my past and I just want to start over."

"Oh my gosh, that is so sad," Sarah says.

"Yeah, it was hard."

"Well, we are by your side, and don't worry about that happening again. You chose the right location to move on. Here it never happens like that." Sadie says.

"What, how would you know? You can never be so sure." I say.

"You never know."

Sarah and Sadie look at each other curiously and back at me. Suddenly a breeze comes in from outside since people are also allowed to eat outside. I look to see Sarah and Sadie taking in the air which is really weird by the way because you don't naturally sniff the air unless you smell something good. They both suddenly gasp and look at each other.

"Wh..what's wrong?" I ask.

"You're human," Sarah replies.

"Yeah... why did you freak out? It's normal to be human." I chuckle at their response.

"No, why didn't you tell us you were human?"

"Well, I would think you would already know that answer since this whole world contains humans," I say looking at them curiously.

"Yeah, actually that's not the whole truth. Don't you know what we are?"

"Yeah, you're human."

They both look at each other again and I look at them curiously.

"OK, what is going on?" I ask.

"You do know this school is filled with werewolves and humans right?" Sadie asks.

"What no."

"Wow, you're so behind."

Sadie takes a bit out of her food and I just look at them in surprise. Werewolves exist and they go to this school? That can't be true. It's just a myth. Werewolves are not real.

"This can't be true because werewolves don't exist," I say.

"Oh, but they do. Sarah and I are werewolves." Sadie says.

"What? This can't be because I've never seen one."

"Well, you lived in New York your whole life. You have never been in this area."

I nod.

"Oh, then if it's true, don't you guys have packs on your own that you live with I read that you have an alpha who runs the pack."

"Yes, actually Sadie and I are both in the same pack. That's how she and I met."

I nod.

"So what's the pack called?" I ask.

"It's Solar Creek," Sadie replies.

"Oh, that's an interesting name."

"Yeah, I guess so. The pack isn't that amazing. It's only the third highest pack."

"What's the first and second?"

"The second highest is the Red Moonlight pack and then the highest and strongest pack in the area is the Dark Shadows Pack which is where Sarah will be joining soon."

"What do you mean?" I ask.

"Well, if you didn't know, werewolves find their mates which is another word for soul mate which is our other half. It is someone we can't live without."

"Oh."

"And who is the guy in the Dark Shadows Pack?" I ask Sarah.

"It's Ethan Knight who is the beta and is Chase's best friend," Sarah replies.

"Oh wait is that the guy you were staring at in the hallway earlier?"

"Yep."

She suddenly blushes and I smile.

"Wow so if he is beta, what makes you..."

"Nothing really. It's only if you're the mate of an alpha then you would have the title as luna."

"Oh, so how long have you guys found out?"

"For a couple of weeks. I found out in the woods when I accidentally crossed their land but then after that that was it."

"So you guys are not together yet?"

"No, we only saw each other in wolf form so he doesn't know what I look like but I know what he looks like since I looked him up."

"Oh, that stinks. You should tell him who you are."

"I know but I'm scared too. What if he rejects me?"

"He's not going to reject you," Sadie says.

"But what if he does?" Sarah asks.

"He won't you're too pretty to be rejected."

"She's right," I say.

"OK, I'll talk to him during the passing period then," Sarah says.

"Good." Sadie and I say.

"What about you?" Sarah asks. 

"What do you mean about me?" I ask. 

"I saw you and Chase staring at each other in the hallway. Something obviously happened between you too." 

"Wait Chase? Spill." Sadie asks. 

"Well.." 

"Well spill." Sadie and Sarah says together. 

"We kind of ran into each other in the hall way heading to my first class of the day. I dropped my books and he helped them back up for me." 

They looked at each other and their eyes widen. 

"Such a gentlemen. You never thought Chase would do such a thing." Sarah says. 

"Same." Sadie says.

"So now he just keeps looking at you?" 

"Yeah it doesn't matter anyways." I respond. 

"Doesn't matter. You guys had a moment together and he can't stop looking at you in the hallway earlier. Could this possible girl that he likes be you." Sarah says.

"What no. A guy like him would never go out with me."

"You never know and girl your gorgous. Who wouldn't want to go out with you." Sadie says. 

 "I guess."  I say looking down at my hands. 

"Do you like him?" Sarah says suddenly. 

"Hum I don't I barely know him." 

"Well talk to him." 

"What no.." 

"Come on. You guys will be cute together." 

I roll my eyes at them. "You guys are crazy." 

We finish eating and I thought about everything that I just learned. That werewolves do exist and they have mates. Also that there are packs around here. It's weird, though. It's like I'm in a fantasy world. Also about what they said. Maybe I have just a little atraction for the guy. I can't help it. He's hot for god sake. 

After lunch, we throw our trash away and head to our lockers. Since Sarah's locker is near me, we both walk together. When we both get to our lockers, I open them and grab my music book. As I do that, I look to my left to see Chase and Ethan walk past us. I turn to see Sarah looking at Ethan with lust in her eyes again.

I roll my eyes and smirk.

"Go to him," I say.

"No way," Sarah says.

"Why not? You never know until you try."

Sarah sighs.

"Fine," Sarah says.

Sarah closes her locker and takes a deep breath and heads to where Ethan is at his locker. I turn to my locker and once in a while, I would peek to see what's going on. I look to see her standing in front of Ethan with her hand on his chest now. I can also see Ethan tense up. It must be the mate bond. Ethan suddenly looks surprised as soon as hes sniffed the air.  The expression on his face changes to a smile. He then pulls her close to him and hugs her. I smile and look away. I close my locker and turn around to head to class but I end up bumping into something hard. Not again. I almost lose my balance but a strong hand catches my waist and holds me up. I suddenly feel tingles throughout my body. It feels nie and for some reason I like it. I look up and look into  those pierceing blue eyes that I love. It is Chase.

"Isn't it funny how we just keep running into each other," Chase says with a smirk.

"Yeah well, we wouldn't have run into each other if you watched where you were going," I say.

"I would have said the same thing."

I roll my eyes.

"Whatever," I say.

I start to walk away from him but instead, he follows me and I look at him curiously. I didn't say a word though.

"Wait, I actually came to see you," Chase says.

"Why?" I ask.

"Earlier today you never gave me your name."

"Yeah so.."

"What is it?"

"Why do you care?"

"I...you different than the girls that I met. I have this urge to get to know you more." 

"Why?" 

He sighs frustrated. Hes trying to say something but he can't.

"Just tell me please." He growls. 

"Did you just growl at me?" 

"I.." 

"I know what you are. My friends told me." 

"Oh they did. So you know about the fact that I'm an alpha." 

"Yep." 

"Did they tell you anything else." 

"They told me about how you guys find you mate and stuff." 

His eyes widen and he nods.

"So whats your name? 

"Allison." 

"Allison. I like that name and especially for a beautiful girl like you."

I roll my eyes.

"Is that it?" I ask.

"Yeah," Chase responds.

"Good."

I start to walk again while heading to the music room and he still walks with me. I look at him curiously.

"Why are you still following me?" I ask. "Don't you have something better to do like go to class?"

"No, actually this is the way to my next class."

"You do music?"

"No, I'm doing football."

"Oh, oh yeah."

It is silent now, and I didn't talk the rest of the way. When I get to my music class. I stop and turn to him.

"You're in music?" Chase asks.

"Yeah, why?" I ask.

"Just wondering. I just never thought of you as a singer."

"Well, I love to sing."

"Really, I would love to hear you sometime."

He grins, and it isn't one of those cocky bad boy smiles. It is a real smile.

"Maybe," I say nervously. "Well, I better go."

"Alright, then I'll just see you later."

"Huh, sure I guess."

He leaves me in the hallway and I enter the music room.

Chase's P.O.V

After I park my car, I start walking to the school and as I do, the most amazing smell hit my nose. It made my wolf go crazy. It smelt like lavender and vanilla and it was intoxicating. Instead of going to my locker to get my things, I wanted to find where its coming from. I keep walking down the hall and I come around the corner and I suddenly run into someone.

"Shit." I say. 

The person I run into uses their balance and all there things fall to the floor. It was a girl. I have never seen her before.

"Mate, shes your mate."  My wolf says. "Help her." 

I imedtoatelhy do what he sames and get down on my kness and pick up her books for her. She looks at me and boy, he had the most beatuiful brown eyes I have ever seen. We just stared at eacher other and it was like the whole world stopped. 

Suddenly shes stops staring at me and nervously took her books from me after getting back up.

"Th.. thanks. I better go." She says nervously. 

She starts to walk away and I relize I never got her name. 

"Wait, I!" I yell but she ignores me and keeps going. 

Maybe I can see her again and get her name later. I start heading straight to my first class.  As I do that, I think about her. I can't believe I found my mate. Ever since I took the position of alpha in my pack the Dark Shadows this Summer, I was forced to change my player ways and to be more focused on my position as alpha and finding my mate. The problem was that I couldn't find my mate this Summer, so I almost gave up but right when Allison walked right through those school doors, I knew right away that the moon goddess has brought her here to me. I seriously can't believe I found her. She's so gorgeous with her long dark brown locks, dark brown eyes, her amazing body figure, and of course her scent. Her scent is lavender vanilla which is so mouth-watering and makes me want her even more. The problem is that she's human, so she doesn't understand everything yet so now I have to take it slow. Maybe staying friends with her first is the best idea, but how am I going to handle her being around other guys? My wolf Adolfo is possessive. I'm going to have to figure it out some way. 

After first period, I walk with Ethan to our lockers. We lean against the locker and just chat. As we do suddenly, the two sluts start walking toward us. They are Brooke Bensen and Bridget Baldwin. They do anything to get in our pants. The Brooke stands in front of me and puts her hand on my chest and looks up at me with goo-goo eyes. All I felt was disgust toward her. I was not attracted to her in anyway. Correct that. I was never attracted to her, I just used her for my own good. Now that I found my mate, I don't need her anymore. All I want is my mate now. I push her away and suddenly people around us start to gasp. Ignore the crowd and look at Brooke.

"Brooke, we used to be a thing last year but now that's over forever. I don't have a thing for you anymore. I have moved on." I say.

"What do you mean it's over and that we aren't a thing anymore? We're perfect together!" Brooke yells.

I scoff and look up at her. 

"Yeah right we are not even close to a perfect couple and besides I already found someone else," I say out loud for everyone to here.

"And who might that girl be?" Brooke asks.

"I don't know.. I don't know her name yet."

She scoffs.

"Of course, you don't know. Last year for a whole semester you didn't care who you played with. You used them and then tossed them away like a piece of trash!" Brooke yells.

Everyone who is watching the scene gasps again in shock from what she said out loud. I this time look around at everyone who's watching and I suddenly find those beautiful brown eyes that I now have falling in love with. She was leaning againist her locker who I am guesting is her new friend Sarah Anthony who is from the Solar Creek pack. We made eye contact and I smirked. She got nervous. and looked away. I then look back at Brooke and speak.

"I'm not like that anymore. I've changed and for a reason." I say.

"And that is?" Brooke asks.

"I already told you. It's a girl."

"OK, then who is this girl? What does she look like? Is she new?"

"As I said, I don't know her name, but this girl is beautiful and she's nothing like you. She even dresses better than you."

I look her up and down with disgust. She scoffs.

"You know this isn't over," Brooke says backing away.

"OK, whatever," I say.

"I'm serious, you will be mine."

"OK, say whatever you want but it will never happen."

She groans and runs off furious with Bridget behind her.

I shake my head and turn my head to look at her again and stare at her. She really was so beautiful. She looks at me staring and we made eye contact again. She looks away again and turns the other way to look at Sarah. She grabs her books and closes her locker and starts walking down the hall. 

"Come on bro. Lets go we got class." Ethan says. 

I nod and we start heading to our next class, which is US History. 

After class and lunch, we head to our lockers. I see the new girl and Sarah at their lockers. We walk past them and I see Sarah turn to look at us. She looks at Ethan with lust in her eyes and I look at her curiously. What was that. Does someone have a crush on my friend? When we geet to our. lockers, Ethan leans against the locker and crossing his arms. He then starts looking around and sniffing. 

"Dude what are you doing?" I ask. 

"Trying to find my mate. I can smell her though. Shes near." 

I nod at his respond.

So if you havent notice. Ethan found his mate a couple of weeks ago but he doesn't know what she looks like. He just knows that he met her in wolf form. Ever since he has been trying to find her. 

I look at the new girl and see that shes looking at us. She mut be taling about us. 

Suddenly, Sarah closes her locker and takes a deep breath and heads toward us. She walks past me and straight past me and walks over to Ethan. She places her hand on his chest and I notice Ethan tense up and my eyes widen. Could it be? Ethan suddenly looks surprised as soon as hes sniffed the air again. The expression on his face changes to a smile. He then pulls her close to him and hugs her. I guessing Ethan just found his mate. I give them some privacy and walk straight toward the new girl. She turns around and bumps into me again. She almost loses her balance but I grab her waist and hold her up with my hands. When I do, I felt tingles flow through my body and I tensed up. She looks up at me her eyes widen. 

"Isn't it funny how we just keep running into each other," I say with a smirk.

"Yeah well, we wouldn't have run into each other if you watched where you were going," I say.

"I would have said the same thing."

She rolls her eyes. "What ever." 

She starts to walk away from me but, I follow her and shes look at me curiously. She doesn't say a word though.

"Wait, I actually came to see you," I say.

"Why?" She asks.

"Earlier today you never gave me your name."

"Yeah so.."

"What is it?"

"Why do you care." 

I needed an excuse and fast.

"I...you different than the girls that I met. I have this urge to get to know you more."

"Why?"

I sigh frustrated.

 "Just tell me please." I growl. 

"Did you just growl at me?" She asks. 

"I.."

"I know what you are. My friends told me."

My eyes widen. So I guess the werewolf thing is out of the bag. 

"Oh they did. So you know about the fact that I'm an alpha."

"Yep."

"Did they tell you anything else."

"They told me about how you guys find you mate and stuff."

My eyes widen. Well that makes it easier on me now. 

"So whats your name?

"Allison."

"Allison. I like that name and especially for a beautiful girl like you."

She roll my eyes.

"Is that it?" She ask.

"Yeah," I respond.

"Good."

She starts to walk again and I still walk with her. She looks at me curiously.

"Why are you still following me?"  Allison asks. "Don't you have something better to do like go to class?"

"No, actually this is the way to my next class."  I respond.

"You sing?"

"No, I'm doing football."

"Oh, oh yeah."

It is silent now, and I didn't talk the rest of the way. When I get to my music class. I stop and turn to her.

"So your in music?" I ask.

If shes in music, she must have a really pretty voice. 

"Yeah, why?" Allison ask.

"Just wondering. I just never thought of you as a singer." I say.

"Well, I love to sing."

"Really, I would love to hear you sometime."

I grin at her. 

"Maybe," Allision says nervously. "Well, I better go."

"Alright, then I'll just see you later." I say.

"Huh, sure I guess."

I leaves her in the hallway and I head to football locker room. 

I walk into the locker room and see everyone almost ready. I walk over to my locker where Ethan is at. He hears me come in and turns around.

"Dude where were you?" Ethan my best friend says.

"Oh, hum I had something," I respond.

"Like what?"

"It's nothing."

"Oh really if it's nothing then why did it take you longer than ten minutes."

I sigh.

"If you really want to know, I found my mate," I say.

He looks at me in surprise.

"Oh, congrats man." Ethan says.

"Who's the girl?"

"It's Allison Parker the new girl."

"Oh, I heard about her. Shes my mates friend."

"Yeah." 

I start getting ready.

"So how are you and Sarah now that you now know who she actually is?"

"Good. She's gorgeous just like how I thought she would be." 

I nod.

We head out to the locker room with the rest of the team and head out to the football field.

"So are you and Allison together now?" Ethan asks.

"No, not yet," I reply.

"Not yet? You and Allison are mates. You guys are supposed to be together."

"I know but it's not that easy. She's also human."

"Oh so she doesn't know anything." 

"Well, actually she does. Her friends told her." 

"Oh.. so are you going to tell her. We need our luna to run this pack and you need her to keep yourself strong."

"I know and I'm going to soon but for now I'm going to take it slow. I just don't want to rush through things. I want her to like me first and then I'll make the move."

"Good idea actually."

"Yeah."

When we get to the field, the coach says we are just scrimmaging today which is really what we always do. We get in our positions to start the game after we split into teams. I'm the quarterback so I'm behind the offensive line. Ethan is a wide receiver, so he's on the end of the line. After we get into position, the guy who's in the center gets in position with the ball and I get my hands out. The coach blows the whistle and I speak.

"Hut!" I say.

The player tosses the ball under and between his knees and I catch as everyone tackles each other. I look to throw the ball to Ethan or the other receiver but they're not open so I make a run for it. I jump over one of the guys coming after me and then around another one. I then get away from the defensive team and keep running until I make it to the touchdown line. When I make it to the touchdown line, the coach blows the whistle.

"Great job Chase! If you keep doing that, then we will do well at the homecoming game." Coach yells.

"Yes, thanks, coach," I say running back to the team to keep playing.

After practice, we head back to the locker room to get showered and dressed. Ethan and I then head out to the locker room.

"Well, I'll see you later Chase. I'm going to meet up with Sarah before Chemistry class." Ethan says.

"Alright," I say.

He leaves and I walk to where the music room to find Allison. I walk to the door where the music door is and usually it's a whole group of people singing together but all I heard is one voice. I peek through the window to see Allison and two other guys. One is on the drums and the other is on the guitar. I open the door to hear Alison's beautiful voice. I'm in shock. She really can sing. I mean like really sing. Like professional singing. I lean up against the wall and listen to her sing.

...Don't be fooled by all my tears,

Cause everything is fine

And you can pick up all the pieces

That you left behind

Cause I never think about you

I'm better off without you

I don't miss you at all

I don't miss you at all

You don't spin around in my head

It's like you never existed

And I hope you don't call

I don't miss you at all

And I'm not trying to fight it

No, I'm not trying to fight it

So you can cross my name right off the wall

I don't miss you at all

I go out seven nights a week

It feels so good to finally be free

And I party like I never did before

Oh, what in the world was I waiting for?

Everything is perfect now

Without you in my life

You could pick up all the pieces

that you left behind...

Oh wow, she's amazing. I didn't know she would be this good. I wonder who wrote this song. It sounds familiar to me.

Cause I never think about you

I'm better off without you

I don't miss you at all

I don't miss you at all

You don't spin around in my head

It's like you never existed

And I hope you don't call

I don't miss you at all

And I'm not trying to fight it

No, I'm not trying to fight it

So you can cross my name right off the wall

I don't miss you at all

I don't miss you at all

I move to a chair to sit and she looks up at me in surprise and is about to stop.

"No don't stop you're really good," I say with a smile.

She nods with a smile on her face and continues.

I'll just tell myself

You'll forgive the past

No time for regrets

No more looking back

I'll forgive you more

Every single day

Every step I take

Is getting better.

Cause I never think about you

I'm better off without you

I don't miss you at all

I don't miss you at all

You don't spin around in my head

It's like you never existed

And I hope you don't call

I don't miss you at all

And I'm not trying to fight it

No, I'm not trying to fight it

So you can cross my name right

off the wall

I don't miss you at all

I don't miss you

I don't miss you

After she finishes with a low note, I clap. She blushes as she sets aside the microphone. Another guy compliment her which causes me to give out a jealous growl at them. The guys then leave leaving it just me and her in the room.

"I didn't know you could really sing," I say walking over to her as she packs up her things.

"There's a lot of things you don't know about me," Allison says as she packs up her things and looks at me.

I nod.

"Who's the song about?" I ask.

"Nothing. It's just one of my favorite songs by Selena Gomez." Allison replies.

"Well, you had so much emotion when you sing it, though."

She sighs and sits down and I sit down next to her.

"You can talk to me."  I say and I move my hand to hers and squeeze it. 

She gasp at my touch and she looks down at her hand and then looks at me. I give her a reassuring look and she speaks. 

"Well, actually I used to have many boyfriends, and they never lasted so this song relates to my past," Allison says.

Thinking about what her past was like makes me angry. Whatever those guys did to her makes me want to rip them to shreds.

"What did the guys do?" I ask.

"They cheated on me," Allison reponds. "And that's pretty much the reason why I'm here. I moved to get away and hoped it would help me start over."

I nod. I suddenly feel so bad for her. Why would guys do that? Don't they ever think about the person they are hurting before they cheat? Like me, I don't cheat. I used to sleep with pretty much every girl in school and then dump them after but I don't cheat.

"That's terrible," I say.

"Yeah, I know and it probably will happen again and again and I will want to leave again," Allison says looking down. 

I grab her chin and made her look up at me. "Hey I won't let that happen." 

"What?" She looks up at me in surprise. 

"I won't let that happen to you again,"

"How could you be so sure?" Allison says.

"Because I know so." 

I take her hand again and I felt those tingles again and I knew she felt it too by the way she tensed up. I grined.

"You deserve so much more than those guys you have dated," I say.

She just grins at me. "Thank you. You know you're not that bad from what I thought you would be like." 

"Well, you can't always believe the rumors."

"I know I just thought you would be one of..."

"One of who?"

"Those guys who don't care about anyone but always want to get inside a girl's pants."

"Yeah but that was back then. Not anymore."

She nods.

"Well, I have U.S. History next so I probably should go," Allison says. 

"Alright, let's go," I say.

I let go of her hand causing me to lose the tingling feeling I had before. She and I get up and she grabs her things and we head out the door.

Allison's P.O.V

As we walk down the hallway, I am thinking about Chase and how he makes me feel.  When he touches my hand, I felt all those feelings. It was like this tingling sensation that was electrifying in a way. I didn't want him to stop touching me.  Also, more importantly, why is he being so nice to me? No guy like him is this nice and caring to me, especially a bad boy like him. 

 When we get to my U.S history class, we stop in front of the door and he stands in front of me in silence and I do the same.

"So here's my stop," I say. "Also thanks for walking me to my class."

"You're welcome and it's no problem," Chase says with a smile.

OMG, his smile makes me want to melt. I smile back and turn around to open the door.

"See you tomorrow," Chase says.

I nod a head inside and close the door behind me. I head to my teacher in front of the class and hand her my schedule.

"Alright, my name is Mr. Meyers and you can take a seat anywhere you like." Mr. Meyers says.

I nod. Everyone is looking at me. I look to see Sarah in the back of the room and take an empty desk next to her.

"Hey," I say.

"Hi. What took you so long?" Sarah asks.

"I was talking to Chase in the music room."

"Ooh, what happened?"

"Nothing."

"Nothing?"

"Well, he did touch my hand."

"He touched your hand?"

"Yeah in my music room after class, he came in and saw me sing, and then after, we talked.

"What did you guys talk about?"

"I told him about my past and then that's when he touched my hand."

"Ooh, what did it feel like? Not that I didn't know."

"Well, this weird electrifying feeling."

Her eyes widen and she squeals. I look at her curiously.

"Why are you so excited?" I ask.

"Oh, nothing," Sarah responds.

I still look at her curiously.

"OK, you're weird," I say.

"No, I'm not."

"Yeah right."

"Do you like him?"

"No, because he's not my type."

A lie. He definitely is my type.

"How, he's good-looking? How are you not interested in that?" Sarah asks.

"I'm just not and besides I don't date guys like him and I don't want to get heartbroken again." 

Sarah nods.

"Yeah, I get it," Sarah says.

After class, I head to the parking lot and to my car and head home after an interesting first day at a new school.
