Dylan POV
My eyes groggily opened as I sat up, my neck aching from lying on my stomach on a hard wooden table, and my back stinging. I looked down at my once naked torso to find a large bandage, perfectly wrapped around my entire torso covering my exposed breasts as well.
Looking outside I noticed the sun slowly making its ascent, an orange hue tinging the early morning sky. I sucked in a breath before allowing my feet to take my weight, almost instantly toppling over in the process.
I noticed a small glass of water placed next to me and took it in my hand, greedily drinking every last drop. Realizing I had to get ready for school, I walked over to write a note for Sheila explaining how grateful I was that she helped me and where I’ve gone. I slowly walked up the hill to my house, once I got indoors I went straight to my room and grabbed my uniform.
After the lycans took over they initiated the rule that all humans must wear a certain uniform, and all wolves can express their individuality. Humans uniform consisted of a long sleeved grey button up, high neck top, and grey pants, on our feet we wore simple black flat shoes. One of my friends in school asked to wear a skirt in stead, and she was placed in iron and paraded through the streets, naked except for a single skirt around her waist.
The lycanthrope species are a disgusting and humiliating race.
Once I was dressed I headed off, the 20 minutes it takes to get to school ended up taking almost half an hour, due to the throbbing pain in my back. Once I got to the human entrance I realized I was late.
“Name, and year!” The lycan in charge of human attendance spoke, his eyes boring into mine as he commanded me. Due to the rules, I bent my head in submission to the wolf as he looked at the electronic tablet in his hands.
“Dylan Riley, senior year.” He quickly tapped away on his pad before roughly pulling my arm towards him, the movement caused me to wince, as he injected me with the clear liquid that neutralizes any traces of wolfsbane, that may be in our system.
“Get to class immediately, one more late and you’ll be joining in with gym class.” My eyes widened at the threat, humans don’t have gym class, the wolves feel that we shouldn’t be encouraged to get stronger. By joining gym I would basically be target practice for them.
“Noted!” The sarcasm dripping in my voice caused me to snap my head up, the lycanthrope are a very temperamental race, and I just broke one of the rules. My entire stance changed as I realized I can’t take another punishment yet.
“Get to class, scum, before I drag you there” I nodded my head quickly before walking off, down the corridor to the human section of school. Luckily on the way I only passed one of their species, I lowered my head as I continued to walk. Once there I knocked on the door and waited for our human teacher to tell me to enter.
I walked through the door and everyone’s heads snapped to me. “Dylan? Why are you in?” One of the girls asked, I smiled tiredly and turned to the teacher.
“I’m sorry I’m late.” Mr Foley shook his head before telling me to take a seat. He turned back to the board to continue lesson, just as I thought he would start, he turned back to me.
“You don’t need to apologize.” I nodded my head in thanks. “What happened yesterday Dylan?” I sighed, knowing I was going to have to explain.
“My brother, Freddie, disrespected the alpha, it was either him or me.” I shrugged before turning my head away from the teacher.
“Where was your mom?” My head turned to Erin who was sat near the front of the class, on the left hand side where all mated human students sit, with her stupid mark on full show for everyone to see.
“Non of your business. Wolf fucker.” I growled out, causing the teacher to look at me shocked.
“They threatened a six year old kid.” My hands slammed down on the desk as I stood up. “They publicly humiliated me, just for standing up for my little brother. What’s the point in following their stupid rules if we’re just going to get punished any way? Fuck that.” After I spoke Nick stood up, then half the class followed, the mated humans stayed sat, quietly, they looked quite scared actually.
“Ok, sit down all of you. I’m on your side, but starting a rebellion right this minute isn’t the way to go, I hate the lycans, but I won’t condone the bullying of our own kind.” I scoffed but nodded, sitting down and watching everyone else sit down after me.
“Don’t you dare call those traitors, our own kind.” My head shot to Erin who was fully crying, the pregnant girl began to subconsciously rub her stomach, and Gary, the mated male had his head turned to the door.
Just as we were about to speak again the tannoy went off, and the principals voice rang through the room.
“Humans,” I scowled at his words and turned my attention out of the window. “As most of you know, the Alpha twins will be celebrating their birthday tomorrow, as such, festivities are in order.” Oh great, the Alphas twin children. Adrian and Arya are the worst lycans alive. I swear just because they are the alphas kids they literally get away with everything. If their birthday is tomorrow, then the wolves are going to be worse than ever.
“All students will be present to greet them, two lines will be made, with humans on the left and the lycanthrope on the right. Any mated human will be at the front of the line for their year, you will all also be in order of your school year. That is all.” Chat broke out the minute the tannoy was finished.
“We haven’t had a school gathering since the alpha king visited three years ago, before his sons coronation.” Nick was right, the last time we all gathered like that was for the king and queens visit, when he decided to let the world know that he was to renounce his title to his only child, son Josh.
“That sick bastard, he wants to make sure everyone is there so those idiot twins can find their mates. That son of a bitch.” Yes I was mad, my fists connected with the table in front of me once more as I thought about how disgusting the situation was. You see the twins will be turning 17, so it’s very possible someone in our school could be their mate, finding a mate is sacred to a wolf, the minute they say that one word your fate is sealed. They will turn your mind, morph you into being a lover of their kind, and then you’ll give in.
That won’t happen to me, I’m growing old to see the world as it once was, and I’m going to choose who I’ll be with. No one will take that dream away from me.
