Surrounded by Wolves Chapter 9
In keeping with my promise to Grace that we’d get stronger, I found my way to the training grounds the next morning. I knew what having an Alpha wolf meant and it would be unwise of me not to build on that potential. Thus, I had to train. I’d never been strong before and now that I could be, I would take the chance.The training ground was located in an extensive field in one of the pack’s forests. There was an obstacle training section at the back, a small collection of weapons under a shade to the left, and a lot of free space where wolves were fighting each other, others boxing in their human forms and some practising the use of weapons.But when I entered, an amazing thing happened. It was like the arrival of an angel. Everyone paused and all eyes turned to me.So this was what it felt like to be popular, a queen bee. It was something I always read about but experiencing it firsthand made goosebumps rise on my skin. Although some people looked at me as if I was a bomb-wielding cra

“Don’t yell at her.” Ethan stepped between Xander and I. “And what are you all staring at? Get back to your training!” It was interesting how everyone moved, scrambling away as if the last person would be punished.“Ethan, this is between Selene and I. Move,” Xander said through gritted teeth.“As you can see, she’s in no place to be interrogated. I’m taking her home,” Ethan reached out to me but Xander slapped his hand away.“That was not a suggestion,” he said. “Go away.”“That’s my sister who’s hurt. I’m taking her home,” Ethan insisted. “That’s – fuck off. That’s a command,” Xander barked.There was a subtle war of nerves between the two but Ethan finally walked off with one last look at me. When he was gone, Xander turned to me with the full force of his burning gaze. I would have flinched away if I wasn’t drained to the point where even subtle movements were difficult.“You said you were done chasing after me,” he started. “Then explain this nonsense that just happened.” He spo

XANDER’S POVThere was something wrong with Selene. Awfully wrong. It bothered me and I hated that I was bothered.‘She said you were bad in bed,’ my wolf snickered. ‘Maybe she only wanted you for sex in the first place. Some girls are like that.’ “You talk as if you didn’t get dumped too,” I muttered.‘You would have to have dated to get dumped, Xander,” my wolf laughed. “We never dated that girl and I don’t know why you are being so grumpy. She has been a thorn at our side all these years so I’m more than happy to see her go.”Did she really use me for sex?Even if there were girls like that, Selene was not one of them. She has been obsessed with me since we were young so sex had nothing to do with it. She must have loved me and loved me enough to pester me for so many years.“I think she’s bluffing,” I said to myself.No matter what she said, this must be a new trick to get my attention. I wholly believed my reasoning until an entire week passed without me even glimpsing a strand
Surrounded by Wolves Chapter 12
After a month in this body, I had gotten well-adjusted. My life was great as I had loving parents. Now, I was going off to college and didn’t have to worry about much because my parents and the original Selene took care of most things. Although I was annoyed to be in the same college as the male lead, it was said to be the best college around and it was close to home.My parents helped me move into my dorm. There were only six rooms on my floor and my room was a beautiful, average-sized room with a small bathroom. It felt a bit small because I’d gotten used to my new outrageously large room but I liked it.“I can’t believe you’re leaving home, already.” My father pretended to cry. “Do you remember what I told you yesterday?” He asked and I nodded with a small smile. “What did I say?”“Men are evil predators that should be avoided,” I echoed. My mother chuckled but my father had a pretty serious face.“You look like your mother so there will undoubtedly be a lot of flies around you. Ig

What sort of shit show was this? When I saw that guy’s face, I wanted to let out a dreamy sigh because he was just that beautiful but at the same time, I wanted to shriek like a banshee and run away. What sort of situation was this? How did I end up here?“How are you here?” Ethan expressed my confusion but I rushed back into my room and slammed the door shut without responding.What were the chances of me being in this particular room? Was I destined to follow his shadow no matter how much I tried?Once again, I tried to see if I had any idea what book I entered but these days, I was starting to feel it may not be a book after all, just a different world.College was supposed to be a time for exploring, making new friends and trying new things without the constraints of family but why was I rooming right next to my overprotective brother? How exactly did this happen?Said brother came to knock on my door and I yelled at him to go away. I was not ready to speak to anyone right now con

Bella grilled me so long and so hard, I almost cried so I ran back to my room. Who did I meet standing right at my door, about to knock?“What are you doing?” I asked, wearily.“We need to talk,” Xander said like he was about to break up with me.I’d succeeded in avoiding him for most of the holiday so I didn’t set eyes on him. Seeing him now, his dark hair a little longer, made my insides tremble. His face was lethal, honestly. If I didn’t know for certain that he spelt doom for me, I would not mind indulging in him.‘What the hell are you thinking!?’ Grace yelled at me.‘What?’ I thought. ‘Is it wrong to acknowledge a fine looking man?’ ‘If that fine man can lead you to hell then yesss!’ She screamed so loudly that I regained my senses. Yes, hot or not, this man was dangerous and bad for me.“We don’t need to talk,” I cleared my throat. “Go away.” I tried to brush past him but he was standing right in front of my door. “Honestly, what do you want? We’ve said all there is to say so

“Did you understand any of that?” I asked Seth at the end of the lecture.“What was there not to understand?” He asked with a frown.“Right? You looked a little lost so - that’s- ah, that’s why I asked,” I lied with a tight smile. It would be embarrassing to admit I didn’t understand half of what was said.“You didn’t understand.” It was a statement more than a question. “How can you be lost in a basic introduction to biology class?” He shook his head and I scowled.“It’s not - it’s not basic, okay? It’s the first class so it’s okay to be confused!” I grumbled, stuffing my book into my bag. I gave up taking notes halfway in to concentrate on the many strange things spewing out of the lecturer’s mouth but still ended up confused.I felt a little dejected after that. Being left behind in class, looking like an absolute moron was something I feared and it seemed to be happening already. If it was a basic introduction and I didn’t even grasp it, then was there any hope for me? I’d gotten

As the growls subsided, I pulled away from Ethan’s embrace but he tried to hold me back.“It’s not pretty. Don’t look,” he said but I resisted, pulling away from him to behold the scene in front of me.“Wow,” I could not help but exclaim as I looked at the bloody scene. “Are they dead?” I asked, taking a step forward but Ethan pulled me back.Blood sprayed in all directions, coating the fallen brown leaves in vibrancy. Their bodies lay askew, limbs twisted in unnatural directions. Their blood continued to seep into the ground and I shivered but not from fear. I was amazed. It took less than two minutes to cause so much damage, so much chaos.It was the pure, unadulterated power of an Alpha and I wondered – can I ever grow to this level? Would I ever tap into even half of this strength? I too carried an Alpha wolf but Grace could not do even half of this damage.It made me want to train harder, get better, so that next time, when idiots like these approached me, there would be no need
