A Girl Adopted by Wolves
Chapter 6- Amara

As the middle bully was about to punch Aaron I sped in front of himand caught his punch in my right hand and demanded,

"What are you doing?”

He tried to free his hand but didn't say anything. I squeezed his handharder. He tried to punch me with his other hand but I blocked it beforehe could make any contact with my face. I am getting angrier by everypassing second. I will probably end up redesigning his entire face. Idon't want to fight on the first freaking day, but people just won't letme be in peace. As I am adopted in the pack by the alpha himself, I aman alpha female and hold the same power as Ryder and Tyler. Normalhumans can get intimidated by me when I am angry. They can feel thepower radiating off of me but can't understand what it is. Their mindstarts screaming danger so they get scared. That's what papa told me,happens when I asked why people get so intimidated by me when I amangry. Some backs off after feeling that and some ends up ruining theirfaces. The other two backed off. Smart move. As I got sure the leaderwon't attack, I let go of his hands. He backed off and went out of thecafeteria with his minions on his tail. I don't like doing this to people,but it just happens. I turned towards Aaron.

"If you want to stay away from me, you can leave now. If not, let's eat. Iam starving." I said to him.

"I choose eating." He said grinning.

I smiled at him and started walking towards an empty table. I neverthought I would make friends here. All the friends I had back atEsterden were through Alec. I miss him so much. As we were eating myphone went off. It was Aunt Clair. I picked it up.

"Hey Aunt Clair. What's up?” I said.

"Hi honey. How are things there? Did you settle in properly? Anyonebullying you? Did you made any friends?" She fired away. Yeah I gotthat quality from her.

I started laughing. She starts blabbering whenever she is worried ornervous or excited. Yeah she is one hyper aunt I got there. But I love herto bits.

"Things are going great here. School is good too and no one is bullyingme. I did make a friend. His name is Aaron. We have every classtogether. Its lunch right now and it is about to end so I can't talk toolong. I will call you back after school.” I replied chuckling.

"Oh thank god.” She said sighing loudly. I love that women so much. “Iwas so worried about you. It's okay honey we will talk later. Don't forgetto call me though.” I hummed in reply “Would you pass your phone toElena, Emma wants to talk to her. She is leaving today. Elena's phone isunreachable. I don't know why." she said in a cold voice. I can sense acat fight. Aunt Clair was mad at mother and father about the currentarrangements. I hope they won't fight over me.

"Sure. Wait a second.” I replied.

Aunt Clair does not like how my mother treats me but she was happy atthe same time because she got to keep me. Now, with me living hereher anger seems to overpower the happiness. I got up and walkedtowards Elena. Every head on the table turned towards me and startedstaring at me. What did I do now? Elena turned to face me and I gaveher my phone.

"Mother wants to talk to you. I am sitting over there. Return it to mewhen you are done.” I said awkwardly.

She said,” Okay."

I went back to my table and she started talking to mother. Aaron and Iwere having small talks and I was stealing his fries. As the bell rang,Elena came to me and returned my phone. I was about to turn aroundwhen she called me,

"Amara"

"Yes" I said surprised. My face must have given it away.

"Do you have a ride home?" she asked awkwardly.

That depends on my brothers.

"No. I walk home." Lie "Why did you ask?"

"Well I can drop you off. Where do you live?" She said blushingferociously.

Okay, what's going on? I stared at her wide eyed and mouth hangingopen. That was the longest civil conversation I ever had with her. Thegirl who I am related to by blood, who never talked properly to me inmy sixteen years of life, is asking me if I needed a ride home. I meanwhat the hell girl? Am I in a parallel dimension or something? I thinkthe weather might have messed up with her brain. Think somethingAmara. I can't tell her I live in the middle of the jungle.

"No its okay. I live on the other side of the town anyways. So I take ashort cut through the jungle. Thanks for asking though." I said smilingawkwardly.

"Okay. Bye" She said.

Bye"

What just happened? Is my sister trying to make up with me? I will replaceout later anyways. I totally forgot about Aaron, who was standing rightbeside me through this whole bag of awkwardness. I smiled at himapologetically and we started walking towards our next class. The daywent by pretty fast and the final bell rang. I submitted my slip in theoffice. Aaron and I started walking towards the parking. He got in hiscar and went home. I went towards the backside of the school, enteredthe woods and started my journey towards my home. It feels good tohave a place you can call home. I reached at the cabin after 45 minutes.I went inside, took a bath and plopped on my bed. This was a prettyweird day. My shift at the cafe starts at five pm. It will take me fifteenminutes to get ready and 30-45 minutes to get there. I still have twohours to sleep. I set an alarm on my phone and curled up on the bed. Iclosed my eyes and was out like a light.
