Chapter 60: Book Two- Her Alpha Savior-Chapter Twelve
Chapter Twelve
Josephine
When my alarm goes off this morning for school, I just want to stay here in bed. I just want to stay in bed, But I know I need to get to school, Max has really shown me a whole new side to him. He helped me yesterday when Tiffany and Heather poured their smoothies and granola snacks all over me and he brought me back to the packhouse to get a change of clothes. He even set me up in a room near his room for the night. But now, I need to get back to my house so I can change and get to school, all before my parents and Heather finds out what happen yesterday. But I’m sure Heather made sure to tell my parents everything. Even though Max is the future Alpha, they will do everything they can to make my life hell, I can’t wait until next week. That will make everything so much better, I will finally be eighteen and I will be able to get away from the awful place.
So, I make my way around the room and gathering up my dirty clothes from yesterday, Then I quickly but quietly make my way out to the main hall and to the main door to head back to my house. I just hope everyone is already gone for the day. I really don’t wish to have to deal with my parents or Heather this morning.
When I make it back to my house, I breathe a sigh of relief because I don’t see my parents are Heather’s Cars in the driveway. So, I quickly make my way inside to grab a quick shower and get change for school this morning. I just hope today will be an easy day and I can avoid Heather, Tiffany and their group of friends.
Once I am showered and dressed in my favorite sundress with my favorite denim jacket and my black combat boots. It may not be everyone else’s style but it sure is mine, I find it very comfortable, and I love the way my body looks in it. The dress hugs my curves in all the right ways and makes my legs look long and lean and the dress makes my chest look bigger, not that I need my chest to look bigger, but I love this dress and for some reason I haven’t figured out why yet, but I am kind of hoping that maybe Max may notice me today.
He has been paying closer attention to me over the last couple weeks. The Alpha has been keeping my parents busier lately, and one thing I noticed over the last week or so is that my sister has been hanging out with the Alpha’s daughter Stephanie, so when I am home with my parents, they don’t bother me too much, maybe he has been making them do so much work they just come home and too tired to deal with me. But I make sure to have everything done that I am supposed to have done. I don’t want any extra attention. So they kind of leave me alone. They have been expecting me to take of everything at home still but at least the beatings haven’t been as frequent, and I don’t mind the chores at home so much, as long as I don’t have to deal with my family.
Once I am showered and dressed, I make my way downstairs to make a quick breakfast with my family gone already I get the chance to have a real breakfast and not have to worry about getting in trouble for eating something I shouldn’t be. When I make it downstairs, I come to dead stop when I see my sister standing at the counter making her coffee, I must not have seen her come back. Maybe she figured out that I wasn’t at school yet and came back here to mess with me for yesterday. When she notices me, she turns and gives me a sneer and looks me up and down then through clenched teeth.
“Why are you dressed like such a whore? You think you will get some guy to pay attention to you?”
I can’t help but lower my head and try to disappear along the wall but it’s pointless.
“No, I just happen to like this dress and I just wanted to wear it today, that’s all.”
I try to lie through my teeth to her, but it seems she doesn’t believe me and when she walks over to me, she looks me up and down and sneers at me then before I have a chance to react, I feel hot liquid dripping down the front of my body.
“Oh, my, I’m so sorry Destiney. I can’t believe I am so clumsy.”
She manages to say all this with a smirk on her face, so I know she did it on purpose and I have no choice to turn around and go change.
When I hear my sister’s voice, I just know she is going to come up with something to make my day miserable.
“Where do you think your going? You are going to be late for school, you don’t have time to change now.”
I knew she was going to try and pull something like this, she wants me to show up at school looking a mess and make me the laughingstock of the whole pack, I need to find a way to change without her noticing. But knowing her she would find a way to make my day worse.
In a low voice, I try to tell her as calmly and politely as I can.
“But I am soaking wet, and your coffee burned me.”
She looks at me with an evil smirk and a sneer on her face.
“That’s just too bad, you don’t have time to change. It’s not my fault you don’t know how to watch were you’re going.”
This day can’t get any worse. And just when I am about to walk out the door the doorbell rings. I walk to the door and pull it open and when I see who it is I can’t help but lower my eyes in respect to who is standing outside our door.
“Oh, hello Stephanie, what do I owe the pleasure of your company this morning.”
She lowers her voice and says very calmly and friendly, it kind of throws me off for a moment when I realize she is talking to me.
“You can look at me Josie, I’m not going to be offended if you look me in the eye. I promise.”
All this is said in a whisper low enough so my sister can’t hear her. With my sister in the kitchen, she would have been able to hear it if it was at a certain decibel.
When I look up to Stephanie, she gives me a friendly smile and I don’t know if I should take her seriously or not, she had never talked to me or acknowledged me at school before. I remind myself I still need to be polite and respectful, she is the Alpha’s daughter after all, so I look up to her ever so slightly and I give her a small smile back and tell her thank you.
“OH my, what happen to your pretty dress Josie?”
Before I can get a word out, my sister comes around the corner and feels the need to tell her what she thinks happened.
“My clumsy sister managed to spill her coffee all over herself. I swear she can’t do anything right. It’s a shame I have to be related to this mongrel.”
Before I can get a word out, I hear a growl come from Stephanie and she tries to cover it up with a cough. Which is kind of weird, but I don’t mention it, she just looks between me and my sister and smiles at me.
“Hmmm. Why don’t you go change Josie and you can ride to school with us?”
She discreetly gives me a wink and I quickly turn and run to my room and change into a different dress with my same boots that managed to stay dry, my old dress manages to soak up most of the coffee thank goodness, I’ll have spray my dress, so the coffee doesn’t stain when I do laundry next time. But in the meantime, I quickly change into another form fitting dress that is a beautiful light green that brings out my eyes and makes my red hair stand out and I can’t help but admire myself in the mirror.
“Come along you little mongrel, let move! You’re going to make us late!”
I can hear my sister from down the hall, and I quickly grab my book bag and make my way back out to my sister and Stephanie.
Stephanie manages to politely tell my sister that everything will be fine and to just give me a minute to gather myself. When I make it back out to the girls, we make our way outside to Stephanie’s car and I climb in the back and My sister climbs in the front with Stephanie. Once heather is buckles in, she turns to me and gives me a sneer like I better behave myself and not embarrass her in front of her new friend.
“Thank you, Stephanie, for the ride to school, I really appreciate it.”
“Your very welcome, I don’t mind, I was coming to pick up heather anyway.”
We all stepped out of the car once we make it to school and I quickly run inside through the main doors and quickly dash to my locker
