Chapter 2

• After I finished up with everything I had to do at home, I grabbed my backpack and walked to school.
• On my way, I spotted Raquelle as she zoomed pass me in her car. I'm lucky she didn't see me. She would have probably made fun of me or something.
• On the street, I saw a young couple. They stared into each other's eyes lovingly while they talked. They kissed passionately.
• I smiled to myself as I passed them. I wish I had what they had. I wish I had someone to call mine. I wish I had someone to run to when life gets too hard. It'll be nice to have someone to hold; someone to talk to and just be with.
• As badly as I want this, I doubt I'll ever find love.
• Who would ever love me?
• This question bothered me a lot.
• Everyone made me feel unlovable, including my family. I can't even consider them as my family. They're just people I live with. I'm never included in anything they do together. I was even surprised when Janet invited me for dinner with the Alpha..
• She's probably just doing that to keep up appearances, so she doesn't seem like a bad step mom.
• I don't think I can ever be loved by anyone. It's pretty clear to me.
• A lot of times, I wonder what my mate would be like. I don't care about physical appearance. I just hope he's kind to me. I've been through so much. Having a cruel mate would make my life miserable. I just hope he doesn't reject me because I'm an omega. I've heard stories about omegas being rejected. Nobody wants to be mated to one.
• I was so caught up in my thoughts that I hadn't realized I had reached school already. I did my best to keep my head down as I entered the building. I don't want any trouble. I do my best to stay out of people's way.
• Unfortunately, that didn't work out because I tripped and fell.
• While I got up, a bunch of girls laughed at me.
• "Look girls" one of them said "Now, she's down to earth"
• "What are you made of?" another girl spoke "Air? You're so fucking light"
• "Such a shame to skinny girls. She's not even pretty"
• "The moon goddess must really hate your mate"
• I dusted my jeans and went straight to my locker, not minding their snarky comments. Believe it or not, I'm used to it.
• People don't fail to remind me how unattractive my body is because I'm skinny. You should know by now, skinny isn't in vogue anymore.
• Most people pay millions of dollars for ass and boob shots. The only accepted way of being skinny is if you're a super model but I'm not which causes me to get bullied for it.
• I gathered the books I needed for my first period. Everything was going fine until the R-train decided to pass.
• The R-train is a group of the three most popular girls in the school.
• People refer to them as the Queen Bees but I don't agree with this. To me, they're more like termites. At least, bees are useful.
• Their names all start with the letter 'R' : Raven, Rachel and my step-sister; Raquelle Raquelle happens to be the leader of the group. It's ironic, isn't it?
• "Hey Rose" Raven called.
• I didn't answer her. Maybe if I pretend not to hear her, she'll eventually go away. I don't want problems with anyone. The next thing I felt was my hair being yanked.
• "Ow!" I exclaimed.
• I struggled to break free. Before I could do anything, she slammed my head into my locker.
• I groaned in pain.
• "I can see you're growing wings" Rachel said "You were actually going to pretend like you didn't hear me call you?"
• Raquelle made a tsk sound "I wonder what gave you the guts to do that, sister"
• I just kept quiet. Replying them would only make it worse.
• "Face us when we talk to you" Raven said.
• Slowly, I turned around to face them. Rachel moved closer to me. I guess she was going to do something but she paused when a teacher passed by.
• He looked at us in suspicion.
• "What are you guys doing?" he asked.
• "Uh..." Raquelle trailed. She smiled sweetly at him "Nothing sir"
• "We were just talking to Rose" Raven said "Just girl talk"
• I held my nose in pain. Rachel slammed my face into my locker pretty hard. I'm sure my face is as red as a tomato right now.
• The teacher looked at me "Why is your nose swollen?"
• "Yeah" Rachel spoke "I was just about to ask her that"
• The teacher looked at me, anticipating my answer.
• "I fell" I muttered.
• He didn't look convinced
• "You fell?" he sounded skeptical "Are you sure?"
• "Yes sir"
• He eyed the three of them "Bullying is not allowed in this school" he said "You know that, don't you?"
• Raven gasped "US? Bullies? How can you think such a thing?"
• Raquelle waved her hand and scoffed "Rose is my sister. We were just having a conversation with her, right Rose?"
• I was silent. I was scared that if I opened my mouth, I would cry which would get them into trouble. If they get into trouble, I'll get into even bigger trouble because they'll make sure they punish me for it.
• I just want to crawl into a corner and lie down there. I'm tired of everything. I wish all this could stop.
• "Rose, is this true?" he asked me.
• Do I really have a choice?
• I have no choice but to lie for the sake of my own safety.
• "Yes sir" I replied "We were just talking"
• He still didn't look convinced. However, he had no proof.
• "Very well then"
• He gave us a nod then walked away.
• "You wont be so lucky next time, bitch" Raven said "You're lucky we're all in a good mood"
• "Let's go, girls" Raquelle said.
• While walking away, she bumped into me, making my books fall down. They all giggled at her action.
• When they finally left, I let out a deep breath.
• At least, that's over.
