to the right is the song Lidia is singing. ____________________________________________________________________________
Lidia's POV
"Lidia! Get your fat, ugly ass downstairs or we're leaving without you," my father shouts from downstairs. I was putting on my shoes and I didn't hurry. I mean, why bother? Even if I hurry downstairs, my parents and older brother would be in the car as soon as I step out the house and drive off without me. Yeah, they were that kind of family. The kind that puts you down, mocks you, and hates you just because you're not as beautiful as they are. It hurts like hell to know that the people who brought you in this world hate you. To this day I didn't know why they kept me and not leave me at the hospital like they said they should have.
Sighing, I made my way downstairs and as soon as I open the door and step outside, I heard the car start then begin to speed off. Before they were out of hearing range, Jack, my stupid brother said “walk you fat bitch! You need the exercise!" I try not to let the words affect me, but they did. It hurts bad.
Checking the time, I smile. It was ok to be late since my first period was a free one. Pulling out my iPod, I click play for my number one play list. Title: kpop (Korean pop). The first song that came on was I don't care by 2NE1. The new girl group that debuted two months ago, and the girls were casting chaos. They were the best! As I walk, I sang the words in Korean. I may not know Korean, but I like to memorize it in Korean. I like to sing along to my favorite in the group, Minzy. I sing,
Ni otgise mudeun lipstick deul
Naneun jeoldaero yongseomotae
Maeil harue susipbeon
Kkeojyeoinneun haendeupon
Byeonhaji anheulgeotman gata
Oh oh oh
Just when I was getting into the next line of the song, I was pushed hard, which made me start to fall. I tried to regain my balance but failed miserably. I ended up hitting my head on a rock as I fell to the ground. It didn't bleed, but it sure hurt like hell. "Walk faster you ugly bitch!" said a mocking voice behind me. A voice I knew all too well. Tami Marson, the most popular girl in school and a total bitch. I turn to look at her. Even with her evil face, she still looks beautiful. I know pathetic right? I was about to open my mouth and tell her who's the bitch, when my dad's harsh words fill my memory along with his beating. Instead, I got up and turned around, walking faster like she said to do.
Why didn't I tell her off like I wanted to, you ask? Well, a year ago when I started gaining weight and got uglier, Tami had made the first comment and hit me. I hit her back and told her off, leaving her along with everyone who witnessed the exchange between us in a daze. When I got home, the first thing that greeted me was a slap. I look up into the eyes of my father, shocked.
"What did you do that for?" I asked him, holding my cheek. His answer was a kick to my side. It was so painful that I blacked out. When I woke up, it was the next day and I was still on the floor. When I looked at myself in the mirror, my cheek was red against my dark skin. In my room, I debated if I should go to school or not but ended up going anyways. Before I could make it outside, I was kicked in the back. I fell flat on my face. I turn to see my parents and brother looking down at me. My dad's right leg lifted and I wanted to demand why he was treating me this way, but got my answer after he kicked me while I was down.
"Next time when Tami or anyone else hits you or comments on how fat and ugly you are, then let them. Maybe they can beat the fat and ugly out of you." With that they left laughing. I didn't go to school that day. I stayed in my room crying. I came to the conclusion that they really do hate me.
When they got home, my father beat me for not going to school. My mother and Jack stood there watching and laughing. I wasn't supposed to tell anyone what happened. Ever since that day, whenever something didn't go the way they wanted, they hit me. Since I haven’t shifted yet, I couldn’t fight back. Even if I did shift, I still couldn't do anything about it. I didn't have enough money to leave on my own and I couldn't go to social services either. My parents have the money to make any problem go away. I just wonder why they haven’t done the same to me.
"Hey bitch, I’m talking to you." Tami’s clone and best friend (and just as much of a bitch as she is) Claire said, stopping in front of me. Knocking me from memory lane, I ran into her. She fell back on her ass and before I could apologize, I was flat on my face again and then the pain came. Tami, Claire, and their group of friends were beating me and I couldn't do anything about it.
When I got to school, I was bloody and in pain. Looking at the time, I realized I missed the first two classes. Luckily, the hallway was empty, but it was short lived when I heard the bell for break, and soon the hallway was crowded with students. When they saw me, they started laughing and calling me names.
"Look what the cat dragged in?" someone said
“Fat shit" a boy named Alex said.
"She’s five times the size of Barney" someone else in my class laughs
"What a cow" more people stop and laugh.
I didn’t want them to see my tears, so I started to walk faster. I didn't go to the bathroom because I knew what they would do to me if I put a foot in there. Just as I was about to turn the corner, I hit a wall of hard muscles. I look up into the face of Jessy Skit, the boy I have been crushing on for the past two years now.
"Sorry", I mumble. He didn't even look my way, just kept walking. My eyes follow him like a love-sick puppy, which I guess I was. The others seem to have notice too because they were making jokes about how Jessy wouldn't look my way even IF I looked like Beyoncé. Then I heard my brother call out, "don't even think about it bitch. No one would want to touch an ugly, fat virgin like you." more laughs. I got up but only to be knocked down once again. This time when I look up, my breath stops. Cold green eyes glaze into mine. Kane Darkman, the Alpha's son. His eyes widen for just a second before going emotionless. My heart beats faster than I ever thought it could and one word came to mind.
Mate!
My heart felt like it would burst from happiness. Thoughts about Jessy Skit clear from my mind before it was replaced with Kane. Because I was checking him out, I didn't notice the hall had gotten really quiet. Everyone, humans and werewolves, were watching us. I must have said the word out loud. Humans, with confusion in their eyes. Werewolves, with hate and disbelief.
I look around at the faces of my brother, Tami and Claire and smile. My mate will protect me, love and cherish me. I was going to be the next-in-line alpha female. Those were the last words I thought before I heard his voice.
"Why would I be mates with someone like you?" he asked with a smirk on his face. He looks down at me, while more insults follow. "My mate is not someone who weighs more than my truck or an ugly ass like you. I can smell you haven't shifted yet, and I do not smell that you’re my mate. If you ever say something like that again, I will fucking kill you, bitch!" with that he was gone. Then the bell signaled that break time over. While a lot of humans move, some of them, with almost all the werewolves gave murderous looks. "Ah!" I scream as pain shot through my back.
"If you ever said something like that again, I will kill you myself!" Jack said in my ear. "How the fuck are we related?!" I heard him say as he walked away. I was crying now.
"You’re so slow bitch" another kick. "Only male werewolves can identify their mates." it was true, and I was not male. So how could I say he’s my mate? Probably because my insides have gone haywire and the wolf that I thought was dormant, was telling me that he is. Feeling so much pain, I ran –more like hobbled-outside into the woods.
Kane POV
That ugly ass, fat bitch! How dare she?! How dare she say something like that?! There is no way in hell that we're mates. No, the fates couldn't be so cruel. No they wouldn't. I don't want a mate, not right now. But when I do find my mate, it would be someone sexy as sin. Not a diseased cow. I stop, my insides boiling. It took all my will power not to go back and ring her fat neck.
Mate! Go back to mate! My wolf Kenny was saying. I stopped dead in my tracks. My heart was beating fast.
No! I shot back at him. That fat shit is not our mate! I scream at him.
Yes, that is mate. Mate will give us power and strong pups. Kenny went on.
No, she is not
Yes, she is. Go back now Kane.
No, I don't want a mate and defiantly not her, I told him. Closing my mind, I send a message to her through the mind link we wolves share, even though she hasn’t shifted yet, we were able to communicate.
Lidia Stone, I don't want you as my mate. i reject you.
