The Rejected Wolf

Chapter 2

Logan POV

The sound of crying stopped me as I walked out of the school grounds. Following the sound, I found a girl hunched over, against a wall, hidden behind one of the buildings. My heart broke for the girl as I watched her with her head bowed and her knees trembling as she sobbed.

As soon as she heard me approaching, she tensed.

"Just leave me alone." She shouted out, not looking up.

I responded without thinking. "I can't do that; I have a rule against leaving beautiful women to cry alone." She seemed to relax at my voice.

"I'm sorry," she said, looking at me. "I thought you were someone else."

I didn't say anything, I couldn't. She's beautiful. Nothing like the she wolves around here. Their clothes were too revealing, and they were too heavily covered in fake tan for my taste.

Her blonde hair was in a mess of curls that flowed down her back. She wore simple, bland clothes, as if she were trying to blend in, though I have no idea how a girl like this could blend in.

Her eyes caught mine, a beautiful shade of blue. For a second, they seemed to flicker like flames, the shift only lasted a millisecond and I couldn't help but wonder if I imagined it.

I realised that I was staring at the poor girl, shaking my head, I sat beside her.

"What happened to make you so sad that you'd hide away back here?" I asked her.

"You don't have to be nice to me, I'm fine really." I just stared at her, waiting for her to answer my question.

She gave a defeated sigh "I found my mate."

I have no idea why, but that one sentence brought me great sadness.

"Was he ugly?" I joked. I was rewarded with the slightest smile.

"No. But he's going to reject me. He started to, but got interrupted by his girlfriend." She whispered staring at her feet.

"Why the hell would someone reject you?" slipped from my mouth before I could stop myself.

Why the hell would someone reject this girl?

"He said that he couldn't be with someone like me." She looked defeated as she spoke. An unexplainable sense of rage filled me, causing me to growl as I spoke.

"What do you mean someone like you?"

Her eyes met mine as she said, "He meant to say I wasn't good enough for him, that I am and will always be a freak."

Before I could respond, a boy ran up to us, going straight to the girl beside me.

"Andy there you are. Where have you been? I've been looking everywhere for..." he seemed to pause as he saw me and her. "What the hell is going on? Andy are you okay?"

"Alexi I'm fine, let's go we are going to be late." She looked at me as she stood up.

"Thank you, for helping me." She said and she walked away with the boy, not looking back.
