My Secret, My Bully, My Mates.

Chapter 0014

I didn’t realize how lost in my thoughts I am until Sierra nudged me. “Hey where have you been thelast ten minutes?”

I blink trying to shake the memory from my head and wrap it around what I’m about to do. “I don’tknow if I can do this.” I finally blurted out. “I wasn’t lying before, I really have no friends and none ofthe people here like me, or want to interact with me. I should just go, you will have a better timewithout me.” I go to turn around.

“Not a chance. And you are wrong, you do have a friend, me.” She places her hand dramatically onher chest. “And I would have a terrible time fighting Kaley without you. You deserve to put that b*tchin her place or at least witness someone doing it secretly on your behalf.” She winks at me.

I just raise my eyebrows at her. How did she know Kaley was my problem? Not even Kyle hasfigured it out and he knows most of the stuff she’s done to me.

“Uh, I don’t know what you –.”

“Mean? Really you’re going to try and lie to me? You don’t have to confirm it out loud, but I alreadytold you I am an excellent judge of character, and she is a social climbing wannabe who couldn’tfight her way out of a paper bag, with a map and GPS. I could give two sh*ts about her pretendstatus and influence. I’m an exchange student only here for a year. What is she going to do, get meexpelled? I’d like to see her try. Technically speaking, I'm the Alpha King's Gamma's only child, noone here but the Alpha outranks me, she can kiss my ass.”

My eyes went wide and I tried to open my mouth to say something, but nothing would come out.How do you respond to something like that?

“Okay, you win, just know her dad is on the school board and several kids have gotten in trouble orsuspended just for accusing her of things or being in my vicinity. People have also been hurt

because of her hatred of me. I don’t want you risking anything just to prove a point. I’m not worththat, and I can handle what she throws at me, it feeds her superiority complex and keeps herattention away from harming anyone else in the pack and protecting them is the most importantthing.” I look her straight in the eyes to make sure she knows that I am serious.

She grabs my shoulders. “You are worth it. I don’t know where you got that idea from, but for beingas smart as you are, that is the dumbest thing you have said all day. Now let's go! We have hotboys to flirt with and a b*tch to taunt.”

I have a feeling I am going to regret this night so much. I take a deep breath in and let it out slowly.“Fine, let’s do this, but you cannot let me make a fool out of myself. This is not my scene at all. Ihave no idea what I am doing.”

“Don’t worry, I’ve got you. And from the looks your brother’s friends were giving you, I don’t thinkyou could make a fool out of yourself.” She winks at me. “Now lead the way, the sun is starting to godown. Boys playing with fire all man-like is something I can’t miss."

I couldn’t help the eye roll this time. Sierra was legitimately crazy, boy crazy and there was nostopping this train now that I am on it.

I led her along the path around the packhouse into the back yard. The Luna does such a great jobmaking her garden so pretty. I wish we had flowers like this, but my dad thinks it is impractical andrefuses to let me do it or pay someone to do it, but the Luna lets me sneak over and read in one ofthe many secluded areas back here whenever I want, she even keeps some of my favorite wildflowers in the planters and a hammock in one of the nooks. It’s a great escape from my house whenit feels too big and empty.
