The Exiled Alpha

Chapter one

I slam my locker door shut, almost a little too loudly. Eyes turn my way and I have to stop myself from actually growling at the nosy students of Beacon Hills high school. I was not the happiest and calmest morning person you could find, especially after yesterday's night. I glance down the hall and notice my brothers walking up to a group of their friends, laughing loudly.

I wish I could snap their necks. Well, at least Tyler's. I would let Thomas live, because he actually didn't do anything wrong yesterday. The twins look completely alike, yet their personalities are completely different.

Thomas notices me standing by my locker, so he excuses himself from the group, his twin brother calls friends and heads to me. A perfect example of how different they are. Thomas would rather talk to me than all of those jocks and cheerleaders that Tyler hangs out with. Plus, the other brother is timid and quiet, he'd rather be on the sofa reading a book on a Friday night, than going out to party with Ty.

"Hey, Mack." Thomas greets me when he comes to my side. I glance towards my brother that looks nothing like me and nod. I still burn holes in the back of Tyler's head in hopes of him actually feeling my scorching stare. Thomas's forest green eyes turn to our brother and he sighs.

"You're still furious, aren't you?" Thomas asks and I finally tear my look off of my other brother. "No shit, Sherlock." I mutter, crossing my arms over my chest. I think my brother could smell my anger filling the whole hallway. "He didn't even apologize." I say, turning to Thomas and dropping my arms to my sides. My dark eyebrows knit together and I get a disappointed look on my face. My responsible brother looks down on me, his figure practically towering over me. "Well, that's Tyler for you. I'm surprised you aren't used to it already." Thomas shrugs his shoulders and glances down the hall behind me. The relaxed expression suddenly falls and he looks rather alarmed.

"Oh. Natalie six o'clock." Thomas warns me, which makes me turn over my shoulder to see my best friend heading right towards us. "I think this is my cue to leave." Thomas ruffles my dirty blonde hair and gives me a smile. "Behave." He adds, making me roll my crystal blue eyes. He sounds like our father.

"Hey." Natalie comes to my side when Thomas turns away. He gives a small wave to Nat, before he heads back to his fake friend group. Or better yet, Tyler's friend group. I still don't understand what Thomas is doing in there.

"Hey, Nat." I greet my best friend and turn to her, giving her my full attention. "Why does he always run away when I come along?" Her light brown eyes look after my brother and I have to shrug my shoulders. I don't understand that either if I'm honest. "I have no clue." I mutter back to her, watching as Samantha, Tyler's mate, wraps her arms around my brother. She has a huge smile plastered on her face, as Tyler gives her a kiss on the cheek.

Samantha is a nice girl if she wants to be. And she doesn't hang out with the jocks, like Thomas is kind of forced to. I suppose that's why I'm close with her.

"Where's your lover boy?" Natalie teases and my sore mood returns back almost instantly. I glance to her with a scowl and hear her giggle. Today she is dressed in some skinny jeans and a cute white shirt with silver sparkles on the front. Her brown hair that has highlights in them is in a high ponytail.

"He is not my lover boy." I argue back, but to no avail. Natalie giggles again, enjoying how she can get under my skin so quickly. "Oh, don't be a sore wolf." She nudges my side and I feel all of my muscles tense up. My whole body becomes hard as a brick wall when I hear her words. I might be her best friend, but there's another part of me she doesn't know and will never know.

"There's Alec." I answer her previous question, calling him by his real name, not the nickname Nat gave him. She believes there's something between us and teases us about it every chance she gets. But to her disappointment we're just friends.
