CHAPTER 17

ALPHA JACKSON POV

I can’t believe that this whole school is making such a big deal that Taylor stayed at the packhouse last night. That’s the whole point of having a packhouse, in case someone was in need of it. But Missy really did it this time. That bitch has been getting on my nerves ever since I got

here. She keeps asking me about my mate and why I don’t have one. Why I haven’t chosen one. She wants to be my Luna. That much, I am sure of.

But she went way too far by calling Taylor slut today. She had no right to do that and I am actually glad that Taylor beat the crap out of her. Maybe that will finally put Missy in her place.

I am sitting behind my desk at school

doing some work and fixing schedules for the school when someone knocked on the

door.

“Come in.” I sang out without raising my

head.

Hi Alpha Jackson.” Missy says coming inside. So I looked up at her and she wasn’t healing yet. She had two black eyes and what looked like a broken nose.

“What did the nurse say?” I asked leaning back in my chair.

Broken nose. It should heal in a couple of days. Everyone is going to give me so much crap for this.” Missy says walking closer to my desk.

“Well, you deserve it.” I say. And she

stopped walking closer to me and looked

at me in confusion.

“What do you mean I deserved it? I

thought we were friends. Why would you say something like that?” She asked looking genuinely hurt.

“Why did you think we were friends? I am your Alpha and you will address me as such. And that stunt you pulled today was completely out of line.” I say standing from my desk.

Okay. I shouldn’t have called Taylor a slut. I was just trying to get under her skin. We’ve been doing that to each other for years.” Missy says walking closer to me again. I leaned on the side of my desk and she stood in front of me.

“I don’t care. Taylor is going through a really a hard time right now and you calling her a slut and bullying her like that, I’m surprised she didn’t kill you. And believe me, I do think she is capable

of doing that.” I say looking straight at

her.

“I know. She’s had more training than the rest of us. I figured that out pretty clear today. Is she going to be punished for what she did to me?” Missy asked softly. 1
