C1 Hold your horses
ASHLEY'S POV
"Ashley!!!" the car honked
"I'm coming, hold your horses" I ran past the kitchen picking an apple on my way
"Bye mom, love you" I didn't wait for a reply before blotting out of the house and into the car waiting patiently for me with my brother that looked like he was about to rip my head off
"It's bloody 'bout time, if I'm late it's all your fault" he drove us out of the driveway and onto the main road
"Oh hush, it's not my fault someone broke my alarm clock and besides you're no longer in highschool" I bit into my apple
"That's because I kept asking you nicely to change that song but you refused so I did what I thought was best and trust me it was best for everyone" I rolled my eyes but didn't make any comment, my alarm tone was kinda annoying. Who would want to wake up to Old Mac Donald blasting from speakers
Now, I know you all might be wondering who am I or who are we so I'm just going to introduce us. I'm Ashley Peters, only daughter of Eva and Richard Peters. I'm 17, just starting senior year in my new school. I have chestnut brown hair, blue eyes, curvy hips and well one annoying brother -Greyson- who's 20, has a mate, Patricia, who is a darling by the way compared to my brother over here and he is the beta of the clan and is best friends with the Alpha, who is also annoying by the way but who cares right.
My parents were high school sweethearts. Its kinda gross watching them at times but they are really sweet and it's well cute. My dad, Richard, is the beta of Blood moon clan and my mom, Eva, was the Gamma's daughter.
My dad was the typical jock and my mom wasn't a nerd, so don't go thinking of stories about the jock and the nerd. She was just a regular student who got great marks and she's a math geek. Turns out the beta needed tutoring in math and she was his tutor, they had an instant click, one year later turned out they were mates. Yeah thinking about it, their story is cute
Oh and did I mention that I am a demon, well my family is made up of demons. You know like angels and wolves and vampires and all that stuff. And yes, demons to have their own packs though we call it clans and ranks
Greyson pulled up in front of my school and turned off the engine. I scanned the area, wolves and demons were littered all over the place but not exactly mingling together.
There's an unknown hatred between wolves and demons so our Alphas decided to put an end by sending both to the same school but that decision is not exactly working out
"I could take you back home" I didn't notice that I'd been staring at the building
"Nah, I'll still eventually have to go to school, I might as well get it over with"
"You sure?" he looked at me uncertainty
"Yes, I'm sure. Now get out of here or Patricia is having your ass for breakfast" I informed, instantly regretting it. Patricia is Greyson's mate and these two are the definition of gross. Who wants to listen to their brother getting at it two doors down.
"That wouldn't be terrible but I'll get out of your hair now, see you later, love you" he waved "You too" I waited till he drove out of sight before entering the hell house we call a highschool
I walked to the reception which wasn't too hard to find and entered the office. The secretary texting away, totally ignoring my presence.
I waited for a few minutes before rapping my nails on the table. She still ignored me. I cleared my throat loudly, that goat her attention.
"Can I help you?" Her wolf scent was suffocating.
"Yeah! I'm Ashley Peters. I'm new and would like to get my schedule" I replied with fake enthusiasm
She took out some papers and handed me one "Here, now get to class and don't do anything against the rules" That's all seriously, no welcome greeting and such
I walked out of the office just as the bell rang. Alright classes, I have Math... Room 211. Oh the joy. Not.
I kept walking down the hallway till I was the only one left. The second bell rang. Great late for my first class.
Why the hell is this place so big? I'll just play the 'I'm new and got lost card' and hopefully I don't get detention on my first day
Room 209....210....211. This is it.
I took a deep breath and opened the door. All eyes were on me. The teacher was already in and giving me a questioning look
"Mind telling me why you're late miss?" He looked like he was in his late forties with grey strands in his hair and moustache
"Yep! I do mind. So where am I supposed to seat?" He looked like he was about to say something but decided against it. Smart choice
"Seat wherever" he started writing on the board. I passed a few seats, the wolves glaring at me. Like seriously people, get a grip, I don't like you too.
I sat close to the window next to a very timid girl, well she looked timid but you never can tell
I looked at the board and saw that the teacher had written his name. Mr. Romero
I looked back at the girl and saw her staring out the window. She had an innocent look but her aura screamed don't mess with me or I would end you. She was a demon so I saw no harm in befriending her
"Hey. I'm Ashley" I smiled at her. She looked shocked that I was talking to her but it went as soon as it came
"I'm Isabella" she said
"It's a nice name"
She tucked a stray of hair behind her ear "Thanks. Just to warn you, don't be fooled by my innocence, I know how to kick some real good ass"
"Sure thing" I laughed. "Do you mind if I call you Isa 'cause Isabella is a mouthful"
"Not at all. You know, this could be the start of a new friendship" she grinne
"You said it" I giggled
Mr. Romero decided to speak up again "alright so where going to be treating logarithm" he went on teaching while I and Isa kept chatting like we're best friends who hadn't seen each other for ages. I learnt she has found her mate and he attends this school so hopefully I'll meet him during lunch break. I also learnt that she's a real spitfire. Don't mess with the girl. She'll break your bones, literally.
An hour later, we were done with math. I couldn't be anymore grateful
"Finally, I thought I was going to die of boredom in there" she laughed
"I'm guessing you're not a fan of mathematics"
"Is it that obvious?" she chuckled
"Considering your continuous yawns, I'm pretty sure it is" it was my turn to chuckle
"Alright so what do you have next" I checked my schedule. Biology. Room 185
"Biology. What about you?" I asked
"Language. It just three doors away from each other, so let's go" I started walking straight
"Um... Ash, it's the other way" I turned on my heels and started walking
"Let's go" she gave a quiet chuckle but obligated.
I made a new friend today, maybe school isn't that terrible. That couldn't be anymore far from the truth, because if it was, then maybe, just maybe I won't have met the devil's incarnate in sheep's clothing.
