293 SHE HAD HER OWN PLAN
Emily walked to the dining hall, before she went to the school, in this pack. She was in her last year, and there were only three months left before she graduated.
However, there was not much that Emily could learn there, as they mostly taught them about the supernatural creatures and all the laws for the shifters, which were not really useful for her.
She was considered an outsider for crying out loud.
And it was proven right the moment Emily walked out of her bedroom door and found a note stuck to her bedroom door, saying all profanities and telling her how she was a waste of space in this pack.
This was just the beginning, if what she had received was something like this the first day Eros went away.
Before, she had gotten similar notes when the alpha took Eros to a different city for two days straight. Of course, she had talked about every single threat that she received to Eros and he took strict measures about them.
Three guys were punished by the alpha and after that, all the pack members would either ignore her or they would snicker behind her back.
However, now, it was different. Eros and the alpha left for two weeks. This was the longest time they would be away from the pack and Emily could see how eager they were to get back at her after suppressing the desire for a long time.
Emily tore the paper and threw it into the dustbin on her way to the dining hall. She needed to eat something, no matter how reluctant she was to meet with those people.
.....
However, when Emily was walking in the corridor, Josh and Derek, along with another five warriors, turned at the corner after Emily passed it, which made them stroll right behind her. She felt uncomfortable, as she could feel their eyes, staring at her body from behind.
“Oh, do you know that the alpha and that kid beta are away for half a month?” Josh started. Emily could recognize his voice easily. He was the loudest and the meanest among them, though his other friends were not any better.
“Yeah, I know that, they left so suddenly, I think they will be away longer than that,” Derek chimed in.
“Hey, don’t you know about that?” Josh threw something toward Emily and it was an empty bottle, to get her attention.
“I don’t know,” Emily replied tersely, as she quickened her steps. Now, she considered staying inside her room and skipping pack school altogether. She could ask for leftovers from the kitchen if she was hungry.
After all, there was nothing much that she could learn from this school anyway.
“Hey, we are talking to you!” Kyle snapped at Emily because she was trying to run away from him. “Don’t you know how to be polite to your seniors? You human bitch!”
Kyle was still angry because of what Eros had done to him, how he beat him up in front of his friends. That kid had beat him up, regardless of whether it was inside or outside the training grounds and the anger only built up inside of him, something that was ready to explode now.
Kyle didn’t know how to win a fight against the lycan, though Eros was way younger than him.
“I said stop walking!” Kyle roared, as he started running when he saw Emily was trying to escape, but this little girl was not a match for him, thus he could catch up to her without breaking a sweat. “I told you to stop, are you dumb?!”
Harshly, Kyle pushed Emily against the wall. She gritted her teeth when her back collided against the concrete wall behind her.
“Woah, easy Kyle, Eros will beat your ass if you hurt her,” Derek said languidly, while the other men laughed at that comment.
That was funny for them, but not for Kyle, since that kind of comment only hurt his pride even further.
“Beat my ass, huh?” Kyle sneered, as he glared at Emily, who was trying to free herself from his grip. Kyle had his fingers wrapped around her neck. He would strangle her if he squeezed it a little tighter.
“Let me go or I will tell Eros about this!” Emily screamed at Kyle, but her voice got muffled when Kyle’s other hand covered her mouth, forcing her to shut up.
Now, all Kyle’s friends had surrounded Emily, they circled her, blocking all the chances there for her to escape. They looked down at her terrified expression.
“Do you mean this ass?” Kyle let go of her neck and squeezed Emily’s butt, which made her struggle even more, tears welled up in her eyes when she heard how they were laughing mockingly at her and encouraging Kyle to do more.
“Oh, what a pity she is still a child, she will be a good plaything if she is a little bit older,” Derek sighed, he extended his hand to hold Emily’s hands that kept scratching Kyle, leaving a few marks, which would disappear within a few seconds. “What a fierce little one.”
At this point, Emily was crying. She even started hyperventilating, especially since Kyle’s hand was still covering her mouth.
She hated it when someone touched her like this, but these people didn’t even care about that, for them, her fear was something amusing.
“What’s happening there?” Jasmine quickened her steps and among these young shifters, she could see Emily. They only met a few times when she accompanied her for a walk in the garden every now and then, since she was the only human in this pack. “Emily, what are you doing? Come here.”
Kyle turned around and glared at Jasmine, but he didn’t let go of Emily. “You better find another place to cause a problem. Go away from here.”
Jasmine didn’t appreciate at all the way this young shifter talked to her. “I am your Luna, did you forget about that?”
Kyle laughed at that. “Our Luna? That status is only to mock you,” he sneered at her.
Knowing how much this human hated the shifters and had attacked them years ago, forcing her to become a part of them and even pop babies for the alpha was just one way out of hundreds of ways to humiliate her. At least, that was what alpha Liam told them when he chose her as his Luna, despite the protests from his pack members.
“Do you think you are that important?” Kyle scoffed at Jasmine.
Fortunately, Jasmine was way out of their league if they wanted to provoke her with just measly words. She wouldn’t be a commander of an elite organization if those words were enough to confront her.
Jasmine walked toward Emily with four guards following closely behind her. Liam left the four of them to protect his Luna. It was kind of ironic when all Liam wanted was to hurt her, but on the other hand, she was his mate, thus it was a complicated thing for him to follow through with his hatred.
“Come here, Emily,” Jasmine said, she stretched out her hand for Emily to take, but Derek blocked her.
“You don’t have business here, Luna,” Derek’s voice sounded mocking, especially when he called her ‘Luna’.
Jasmine glanced at Derek, her expression didn’t change at all when she spoke again. “I don’t have any business with you.”
And before they could realize it, Jasmine had pulled Derek’s hand, until he lost his balance and almost fell, knocking Jasmine over, but before that could happen, she had delivered a harsh kick to his stomach, which made him fly a few meters away.
Jasmine smirked, she felt great that she was still able to do something like this. These young shifters really didn’t know how to fight.
They didn’t even know how to control their emotions.
They were indeed lethal in a pack battle, as they were irrevocably strong, but they were nothing in individual fights, since it was so easy to distract them.
“You nasty human!” Kyle stepped forward, he was about to shift, to give this bitch a lesson or two, to not continue thinking so highly about herself.
However, two of the men that followed Jasmine blocked and stopped him before he could shift into his beast.
“What do you think you are doing?!” Kyle roared at them, he knew these two men. “Are you siding with that bitch?!”
“This is Alpha’s order, you are not allowed to touch her,” the guard named Oliver said sternly. They didn’t like this arrangement, but they couldn’t disobey a direct order from their alpha either.
“Do you want to tell me that you are her dog now?!” Kyle was fuming mad and the moment he let go of Emily, the girl immediately sought protection from Jasmine. She hid behind her, watching wide eyed as everything unfolded.
“Watch your mouth, kiddo,” Oliver said grimly, as he delivered a punch to his stomach. “I don’t like her, but I will not appreciate the way you mock me. This is an order from the alpha and I am bound to oblige, so do you.”
Kyle bent over forward, as the punch was hard to take. He felt like Oliver had knocked out all the air from his lungs.
“Let’s go,” Jasmine said to them, as she took Emily’s hand in hers to go to the dining hall. “Stay with me and you will be fine,” Jasmine said softly to Emily.
Yes, Jasmine was not a devil, but it didn’t mean that she would help Emily without any strings attached. She had her own plans.
