Chapter 11
Chapter 11
I went upstairs to have a shower and I got dressed and I then brushed my hair and I applied a little bit of make-up.I went back downstairs and got another cup of coffee and I sat on the front veranda with a smoke just as mom was walking out the door to get to school.
"Are you sure you don't want a lift?"She asked.
"It's too early for me to get there yet.I want to make an appearance."I say smiling wickedly at her.
"Oh goddess, help us all."She says as she gets in her car.
She waved as she left and I finished my smoke and coffee and then I went inside and I made sure that I had everything that I needed for school in my bag before I was ready to leave.
When I finally did leave, I started walking down the road and immediately it all came back like it was yesterday.
The same route that I took to school and everything was just so familiar.
Like I never left.It felt surreal.
When I got to the high school I saw kids out the front and they were all joking around and doing their own thing while I was standing across the road watching them when I saw Edward and Hannah get to school together holding hands.I'll admit, it did hurt a bit seeing them two together like that.
He's my ex and she's one of my best friends.
We kept in contact while I was gone but she never mentioned this.
She never told me herself which would have been the honourable thing to do.
I really didn't think I was that scary.
But I knew about it now and they were about to find out as well.
They walked over to a group of people and I immediately recognised the group of people.
So, I walked over and they were all in conversation with each other so I put my arms across Aria and Emily's shoulders taking them by surprise.
"I'm back bitches." I announced.
And the whole group got way too excited and started hugging me and telling me that it was about time that I got back here.
Hannah and Edward didn't come close to me. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
They stood back a little bit looking at each other a little weird and I saw that they weren't holding hands anymore.
"Relax.I already know about you two.It would have been nice to hear it from either of you two since I kept in touch with both of you while I was gone."I say.
"Anyway, what the fuck is different around here since Alpha Jackson took over?"I asked the others.
"Well, he's trying to make a lot of changes.I think he wants to turn us all into killing machines like the rest of his pack"Caleb says.
"Yeah.That doesn't surprise me.He wants to be the most powerful pack.All of his pack members need to know how to fight."I say.
"So, when did you get back?"Parker asked.
"Yesterday morning."I say.
"Why didn't you call us?"He asked.
"Thad shit to do since I came back."I say shrugged.
Like have terrifying dreams about hunters killing our new Alpha.
"Oh.My.God."
I heard someone say behind me in a high monotone voice that sent a shiver down my spine because of how irritating it was.
"Hello Missy.Did you miss me?"I asked.
And my friends laughed at the rhyme that came out of it.
"What the hell are you doing back here?"
She asked storming up to me to get right in my face.
"Ask Alpha Jackson.the one that bought me back.Literally.He forced me into his car and drove me back here.Very slowly, I might add.The trip is meant to take 3 hours and I think I was stuck in that car with him for like 5 hours."I say looking at my friends with a very unamused look on my face.I "
You were in a car with Alpha Jackson for 5 hours?"Parker asked shocked.
"Yeah.You should have seen the look on his face when I finally lit a cigarette up in his car.Fuck he did not look impressed."
I say laughing.
"Well, tell the Alpha that you want to go back to where you were."Missy demanded.
"Fuck you."I say.
"This is my school now.I rule this place.Not you."
She yelled in my face.So I took a step closer to her and we were only inches away from each other.
"If you ever yell at me like that again, I will rip your fucking tongue out so that you can't speak, let alone yell.And you may have ruled this school while I wasn't here.But I'm back now.So your reign of terror is over and things can get back to normal." I say to her in a calm but very menacing voice.
She took a step back and one of the guys that she was with grabbed her arm so that she wouldn't trip.
"We'll just see about that." She says storming off.
Then Emily put her arm around my shoulder.
"Damn it's good to have you back." Emily says.
And I turned and smiled at her.
"yeah.I think I'm going to like being back here." I say nodding and smiling.
We all went inside and I had to go to the office and get my school roster and my locker and locker combination and everything that I needed.
I then went to my locker with Parker and Emily while the others went to their lockers.
The others came with me and I was just talking to them when I saw Parker and Emily tense up a little and I looked behind me and I saw Alpha Jackson walking down the hallway.
I could see everyone else moving aside and getting out of his way as well.
As he walked past everyone, they bowed their necks to him in respect.
"Come on Taylor.We should get to class."Parker says trying to hurry me up.
So, I looked at my schedule and I saw what classes I had first up and I grabbed the appropriate books that I was going to need.
"Hurry up Taylor."Emily says softly.
"What the hell is your problem?"I asked.
"Good morning Taylor."Alpha Jackson says stopping at my locker.
"Morning.Didn't we already see each other this morning?"I asked.
"I made sure that I picked those classes out especially for you." He says pointing to my roster.
"Let me guess, you gave me every asshole teacher in the school?"I asked.
And he smirked when I said that.And I was afraid of that smirk.I didn't know what the hell was going through his head.
He was nice to me this morning.But now he was looking at me like he was trying to punish me.
"Maybe someone can knock some sense into you."He says.
“You're forgetting Alpha.I've had all of these teachers before.None of them have been able to knock any sense into me yet."I say.
"Well, they might now if they think their jobs are in danger."He says looking me straight in the eye like he was trying to scare me.
"You seriously fucking threatened them to give me a hard time?"I yelled at him.
And everyone in the hallway stopped and stared at us.
Alpha Jackson looked around at the scene that I had just created.
And he smiled at me.
Emily and Parker looked at each other in shock and took a step back from us.
"Good luck today."He says walking off.
"Jerk"I say slamming my locker shut.
"Taylor.What the hell is wrong with you? Why would you speak to him like that?"Emily asked.
"Because he's a dickhead."I say.
"And he can still hear you."She says.
"Yeah.And he's probably got a big smirk on his face as he's walking away right now."I say.
"Come on.We have all the same classes.Let's get to English."Parker says.
So, the three of us headed to English and the teacher saw that I was back and he looked tense when he saw me.I knew that he had instructions to give me a hard time or he'd be fired.I guess the Alpha was going to greater lengths than I thought to throw a little discipline my way.
"Welcome back Taylor."Mr.Martin says.
"Hi."I say smiling widely at him.
"There's one seat left at the back."He says.
So I went down the back of the room and sat next to Parker.
"Alright class.Today we are starting on Shakespeare.We will be reading from these booklets and you will be doing an essay at the end of them."
He announced handing out the booklets.
But I got a booklet with my name on the front of it but no one else had their name on it.
So I looked through my booklet and then I grabbed Parker's and I looked through his.
"Mr.Martin.Why is everyone else required to do a 1000-word essay at the end of this class but I have to do 5000 words?"I asked.
"I was just given these booklets this morning.And I was told to make sure that one made it to you."He says.
"By Alpha Jackson?" I asked raising my eyebrows.
"Yes." He says putting his head down.
So, I start going through the booklet and reading everything about Shakespeare and highlighting the passages that looked to be more interesting and that would be more useful for me.
"What are you doing? We haven't even started the book yet." Parker says.
"I know.I better get started on it if I have more work to do."I say.
"What is it between you and Alpha Jackson?"He asked.
"He keeps telling me that I need to show more discipline.I told him to keep dreaming." I say.
"Oh god.You're gonna get yourself killed."He says.
"Probably.But people have been saying that for a really long time.
"I say.That day went by pretty slow because of the amount of schoolwork that was piled on me in every single class.Alpha Jackson really did have it in for me.He was trying to show me discipline and I was starting to resent him for that.But after lunch we needed to get changed and head out to the field where we would start training for the day.Alpha Jackson was there watching but Isaac was in charge of the training session.And Alpha Jackson had a couple of his own warriors with him that he bought with him.
We needed to split off into pairs and I was paired with Parker.
I was happy to be paired with him and not any of those asshole guys who think that their as tough as shit.
We had to do offence and defence and Parker told me that he was going to take it easy on me because today was my first day back and training in this situation.
I just smiled at him and when he charged at me, I dodged out of the way at the last minute, ducked under his arm until I was behind him and kicked him in the back of the knee which forced him to fall to his knees where I then kicked him in the back and he fell flat on his stomach.
That got everyone's attention and I walked over and leaned over Parker.
"So, are you still going to take it easy on me?" I asked smiling widely at him.
"No."
He whimpered out as he got up.
"Taylor.Where the hell did you learn that?" Isaac asked walking over to me.
"Richmond pack.I told you that I was training there." I say.
"Alright.Let's keep it going." Isaac says.
