The Rejected Alpha

Chapter 1 Realisation

Chapter 1

"Jake, wake up darling. Today's your 18th birthday" my mum called. I turned around in my bed, pulled the covers over my head en groaned. I don't want to get out of my bed and go to school. The fact it is my birthday is the only good thing today.

The door of my chamber flew open and my little sister Maggie walked in while singing happy birthday way out of tune. "Happy birthday!" Maggie yelled in my ear, "please, come out of bed. I have a present for you!"

I groaned again, it's not that I don't like the fact that she has gotten a present for me, but that I have to come out of bed in order to get it. "Please, please, please Jakey, for me, your favorite little sister?!" I sighed "okay, but you're only my favorite because I don't have another sister"

She gave me an annoyed look and ran out of my room. I finally got myself out of bed and put on my clothes. I went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. Have you ever seen American high school movies with the jocks, popular girls and nerds? Well I look like the typical nerd out of such sort of movie. I hate myself.

I'm I long, but not muscled at all, I look weird and for some reason my hair always stands up and I were glasses. The only thing I don't have is the typical nerd clothes like knitted sweaters and pants who are pulled up till my armpits. I were normal guy clothes, nothing flashy just normal. The only positive things are the color of my hair, it is pitch black, and my eyes. My mum always says that the eyes are a window to the soul of people. Well mine are as black as my hair. I hope my mum isn't right, cause if she were I would have a very black soul.

Back to the subject of my body. I shouldn't look like this, I mean; I am the son of our alpha. Ooh I forgot to tell you, I am a werewolf. Nice, isn't it? Well you would think so. I am the son of the alpha so I'm next in line. If you look at the typical and predictable werewolf stories I would be the most popular guy at school, have big muscles and could have any girl I want. The only problem is it doesn't work this way with me.

I told you how I look, so you would know that I don't look like I should. At home everybody has respect for me, but at school I am nothing. Well what was I doing? Ooh yeah, I was going downstairs and unpack Maggie's present.

I walked down the stairs and was greeted by my mum. She hugged me, "darling, happy birthday. How does it feel being 18?" "I don't feel different at all." I sat down at the table at got myself a big piece of birthday cake.

"Happy Birthday, son" my dad walked into the kitchen. "We have a present for you. Close your eyes and let me walk you to it". I closed my eyes and let him walk me outside. "Okay, you can look now" I opened my eyes and before me was a black Mercedes.

"Now way, is this car for me?!! Thank you so much!! I absolutely love it!" my dad grinned. "I'm glad you like it. Here are the keys. You can drive it to school, have fun and good luck!"

"Good luck? Why?" I asked. "Well don't you remember when I told you that from your 18th you can find your mate? Maybe she's at your school" my dad said with a twinkle in his eyes. He thinks I am the king at school. I can't tell him I am not because he expected it from me.

I got a sinking feeling in my stomach when he said that. I hope my mate isn't from my school. Please, don't let her be!

"Jakey, Jakey, you still have to open my present" Maggie ran to me and almost tackled me into the grass. "Okay, okay, give it to me please" she took a pink wrapped package behind her back and gave it to me. I unwrapped it and looked at it. It was a mug with world's best brother. "Thank you so much Maggie" I hugged her. I hope she will still look at me this way when she finds out how I am at school.

I when I was inside, I put the mug into a kitchen cupboard and put on my jacket. The first thing I did when I was in the car was taking a deep breath trough my noise and smelled the awesome scent of a new car. I took a deep breath again and started the engine and drove to school.

I have a feeling that school is going to be the worst part of the day... like always...

Hello

I want to try to write a story and I love werewolf stories. But they are always so chlice. So I decided let's turn the cliché around! I know this first part isn't very interesting but it all will come hopefully the next chapter. And for my writing, English isn't my first language so I hope I haven't made too much mistakes. I hope someone will read this story but if no one will it still want to finish it!!
