I Rejected The Alpha For being a bully

Chapter 1 I walked out of the store , minding my own business, when a firm broad shoulder brushed over me and pushed me hard enough that I fell down. The contents of my bag were scattered all over the floor and I threw my long black hair sideways so I could see who the culprit was and I furrowed my brow in anger. I narrow my hazel eyes at the familiar sheet eating grin and can't stop the growl of hatred that rumbles through me. Wow dear, you should watch where you're going." Fucking Gabriel . The alpha son has always been one since we started high school.Now a year after graduation, he still finds every chance he can to torment me. It used to be throwing my homework into the pool or "accidentally" shoving my books out of my hands or pushing me into lockers. I don't know how many bruises I came home with after he"ran into me" with his shoulder . On top of all that were the unusual names he'd call me.ugly,b***h,slut,whore.Dear was pretty tame compared to the rest of them,but he only used it because he knows I hate it.it wouldn't have been so bad if he treated everyone like s**t,but he and his merry group of men that followed him around like disciples only torture a selected few of us. Those of us are more focused on the strength of our mind, rather than our body. Sure I could fight. Both my parents are warriors. They made sure I could hold up on my own , but I never made a show like other teenagers. Showing off around the training ground like a peacock was never appealing to me ,so I was labeled different and punished accordingly . Now, looking up at my tormentor and the three other wolves following him around like dogs on leashes, I'm reminded of just how much I hate these guys. "f**k off, Gabriel" I sneer through clenched teeth as I collect my stuff from the floor and stand at my full height , which is still considerably shorter than him. He chuckled and looked around at his buddies . "Excuse me, Dear ? I don't think I heard you correctly ." He says with a hint of amusement in his voice . I square my shoulders and make eye contact with him. Refusing to lower my gaze in a way to show my disrespect for him. "I told you to f**k off". I responded to him sharply . I see his eyes darkening in anger as he takes a few steps closer to me . "You will like that, won't you"? If I let you sleep with me . What a slut". He says his friends burst out in laughter . I could feel my face go red but I didn't bring down my stare. "I wouldn't touch you with a ten-foot pole. Even if it has a condom on it . I feel bad for your mate . She is sure to be disappointed ." I spit at him and he growls before his expression turns into amusement . "No ,Dear. My mate will love me. I bet she will throw herself at me. I will have her marked and mated within an hour of meeting her." He says with full confidence and pride. I couldn't help but roll my eyes at him. "I hope she rejects you. I don't know her, but I can tell poor people deserve a better mate. I said while holding his gaze. He is very pissed at the moment that he could destroy anything close to him. His usual dark emerald green darkens to the shade of his wolf as he growled slowly at every breath he took . "Submit. Like the pathetic b***h you are. He growls,his voice lower as it mixes with that of his wolf. I stood my ground, praying that my body didn't betray me. I knew he could hear my pounding heart ,but I refused to show my fear. Let it go, Gabriel." one of his jerk friends says. Yes, she is not worth it, one of his friends added. Gabriel shakes his head and comes out of his half shift position . His body stopped radiating with anger and his eyes were clear again. Perfect little Rachel . Always think you are better than everyone else. One of these days someone is going to knock you off for real . Gabriel said mockingly . I just rolled my eyes again, knowing nothing makes an alpha more angry than being disrespected. Funny, Gabriel, I could say the same for you." I muttered before turning on my heels to leave. Sure, I had walked in the wrong direction , but I wasn't going to turn back and let him know that . Instead, I walked into a small book store. Thankfully, my friend Helen was working there. That looks like an intense fight between you and the alpha. She says," Helen has always been observant , but a small bookstore with a large window facing the main street of the park didn't hurt. I'm so tired of him, Helen . I can wait till my eighteenth birthday . Once I find out that my mate isn't in this pack, I leave and never come back here. I can't watch it burn down with that bully in charge." I ranted angrily as I helped my friend with her work. "Slow down there tiger .You are putting the tags on the wrong books . And you can't just leave the pack ,you need the alpha's permission". "You think he won't ,'' I asked seriously, and Helen sighed. " You know he has been eyeing you to take over the pack intelligence department. You are wicked smart and can sense patterns so easily that it is creepy. You were great at planning attacks , helping with defense, warrior training and patrolting wolves. Wolves like you don't come along often. I don't think he just let you go."she says bluntly and sighs. Fuck me for being so smart. "Yeah, well, maybe he will feel differently after he hears what I feel about his son . I shrug and Helen gasps . You wouldn't ,she challenges, but all I gave her was a smirk .
