My Alpha Protectors

MY RAGE AND MY FEAR

Ana’s POV:

It was not a coincidence … it cannot be… I just don’t understand what the hell happened there with me. Diane is bullying me since I came to this school and it never has happened earlier any time that I have stood up against her.

 The rage ….t..t..the temper I felt like I would kill her on the very spot …but somehow I was able to control after seeing them fighting for me…. Oh, God!! I’m so confused about this theory.

“Ana… Ana…” Nina just woke me up from my thinking. “what is wrong with you too??” she asked… “it’s nothing” I replied… “Come on you have never been able to lie to me …what is it??” she asked. “Oh!! I was just thinking about what happened in the cafeteria earlier” I replied in a confused tone… “Don’t think so much … it's good to stand for ourselves… and I’m proud you at last you did...” she seriously made me feel better.

“Wait what do you mean by ‘you too’? Is it something you are worried about??” I asked. “Well, you won’t believe it… but my grams says that our ancestors were witches, some have the ability to use it since they are little kids… and some rare ones, like me, are psychic who learns when they are ready.” She just mentioned some witchy woo stuff about her family.

“So, you mean you can do that …abracadabra and whoo hoo ...kind of things...” I said suspiciously. “yeah… according to her… but you do not think it is true, right?? She is crazy...” she said. “there is one way to find out… let's go to the cemetery” I whispered in silence but not in a serious tone. “Oh come on ...just be serious for once please”, she yelled at me in irritation.

Caroline came to us smiling like a kid… “Ohh god you won’t believe what I saw…” she said in excitement… “what …Aiden kissing Jacob’s ass” ... Nina blurted out. “Nina … no... I saw Jacob and Diane fighting over the thing she did with you, Ana… he slapped her...” she revealed something unbelievable… “what?? How??” I asked... “she deserves that after what she did with you …I’m with Jacob,” Nina said. “yeah right!! ... and I was not able to hear completely but before he left there, he said to her that if she doesn’t take it seriously, they are done...”. “wow!!” Nina seemed joyful. It was hard to believe though…

We left afterward back to home… I am still not able to solve the conundrum. “Do you both have any dates…??” Care asked. “no,” I said... “yes” it was Nina. “Really... who??” I asked. “Sam” she replied. “Not again” care and I nodded...

Nina drove me back. “Hii sweetie!! And what the hell happened to your face??” my mum asked. “oh, I fell in the school bathroom” I ignored. “you were always a terrible liar...” she seemed annoyed. Well, I was feeling nostalgic… so I ignored her and went towards my room….   

I was feeling restless, so I stood in front of my mirror and started checking any type of physical changes …well I’m not getting hairy like wolves… and… I don’t have any .... fangs too …not a vampire for sure... vampires are dead creatures, and I did not die once... but werewolves don’t have to die …ugh I’m thinking nonsense … I’m pathetic!!!

I grabbed my jacket and car keys ….and went to the nearby shop… “hello!!... Ric …you’re here??... here you are… you’re not paid for making your customers wait…” I nodded. “I know …my boss is not here so it was just me working…”. He replied. “let me guess she is with Caroline helping with the dresses for the party...” I guessed. “you know them both well… what do you want...??” he asked...

“I’ll take a cold drink and two packets of chips and funfetti pastry for my mum…” I asked. “Funfetti is out ... I have pineapple, vanilla, strawberry, cheesecake and…” he said. “pineapple will do ...” I spoke in the middle. I paid and left… “things are getting costlier by the day...” I whispered to myself.

I was just about to open my car door when some crooks surrounded me... it was almost 10 o'clock at night… and the streets were quiet… they started throwing my things away and their hands were all over my body …they kept throwing to one another... I was scared as hell and I was not able to figure out an escape plan from here... when I just punched on one of them in fear with all my strength and he fell back hard… they were like shocked or something... so one of tried to hold me and I pushed him hard again with all my strength... I lost my concentration in confusion... I was like... “What??” … then Ric came outside to help me, and they started beating him… it was my anger… my rage… with my fear …I was not able to control it … so I took a stick from the ground and hit one of them …  the stick broke and he fell on the ground... and he was not waking up... another one of them came to me and I slapped him on his face and kicked on his not so visible ass... and he also fell hard …I was so perplexed… that I didn’t even realize that they grabbed the fell offs and ran… I was so much puzzled... I put Ric inside the shop and grabbed my stuff and rushed towards my home…

Tears literally started dropping off my eyes as I ran up from the stairs to my room…. I locked myself inside and I was literally crying because of what happened there… my mum came she was really scared to see me like this …. I explained everything to her that happened out there…

she was not surprised with the strength but she was scared… at first, I thought she was scared because of what I went through because she handled me well… you know mums and their love… but after when she went down I followed …. I opened the door a little and she seemed concerned about something…she called someone and said... “I’m afraid something is happening to her…. No, you don’t understand she barely stands against bullies in her school… I’m afraid she will become you… ohh..no.. no… you have to do something I can’t lose her…”

I just closed the door and went to my room… I think there is something she is not telling… what she meant by..  ‘become you’?  maybe she knows what is happening to me… what can it be that it is so hard to tell me but not so hard to tell the person she called…

I went back to her room to confront her… she was still on the phone when I said.. “who are you talking to?? “just an old friend, darling.” She replied and there was fear in her voice and there were tears all over her face. “why are you crying then??... is there anything you know and want to share with me..” she asked worriedly. “ no sweetie… go to your room you have school tomorrow” she was driving me away.. “mum… talk to me..” I slammed her hand. “ There is nothing you should be concerned about... now go to your room” she shouted a little and closed the door… but I can hear her saying on the phone…. “yeah that’s her… she is 17 now …you saw her as a child……..”

I went back… and all I was left is with questions I don’t have answers to… I want to know who she was talking to… and what was she hiding… I have to know…. As I was curious .. was it my dad???
