Fate or Not, You are MINE

Chapter 2

KATIYANA POV

It's the first day of school and first period is dragging on, so I decided to start drawing. Wasn't missing anything important anyways, just what we need for class and how much of the total grade each paper is. While I was drawing I let my mind wonder around a bit. Here lately the Alpha has been acting all weird and been holding secret meetings, that he thinks no one knows about. What could be going on that it is kept a secret from everyone else..? Since we are Panthers, we don't have "packs", that is why we only have one Alpha, and not many, who is over all were panthers. We live separately but come together when needed. So why was only a few selected were panthers in on the meetings being held?

I looked back at my drawing and gasped! I quickly looked around to make sure no one heard my gasp. I returned my gaze back to my paper and noticed that while my mind was running around, my subconscious was allowing me to draw this pure white were panther with a black stripe from the muzzle to the tail. I've never seen a panther that had a stripe on its side and to especially see a white panther that was a male. Even though it's a drawing you can still tell it's a male by the size of his head and the weight to it. Whereas females are more sleek and slender, the males are complete opposite and have more weight because they are the hunters of the group.

I quickly closed my notebook, so no one could see my drawing, as the bell sounded for the next class. I ran to my locker and shoved my things in, quickly exchanging them for my next class's things. I was about to close my locker when the door slammed close. I jumped back as the locker door barely missed catching my finger in it. I turned to the culprit and rolled my eyes and braced myself for what I knew was coming. The school "play toy" always came up to me ever since the Alpha announced that me and Ryker were to be married in 2 years' time, just to make the same empty threats that she always does.

"I'm only going to tell you one last time Kitty Kat, before I end up ripping your head off! LEAVE RYKER ALONE!! He doesn't like you! He just feels sorry for you because you're not as popular as him or anyone for that matter!"

I ground my teeth together at the sound of her annoying nickname she decided to give me, I just rolled my eyes again and tried pushing past her. I do NOT have time for drama. She quickly grabbed my arm and swung me back until I hit the lockers and locked her hand around my neck.

"Do NOT walk away from your FUTURE Alpha Female! You will learn to show your superiors respect Katiyana!" she hissed in my face as spittle hit my cheeks.

I pushed her off of me and stood to my full height and let my panther come to the surface so that my eyes shown the color of my panther: violet. She shrank back a few inches more than I pushed her.

"No Anabelle! YOU will respect your superiors. I am the daughter of the Beta and you are the daughter of the fourth in command not even the Omegas' daughter! And mine and Ryker's fathers have arranged a marriage between me and Ryker, if it wasn't for the stupidity of our fathers, I would have nothing to do with that arrogant little brat! So you will remember the next time you decide you want to pick a fight, be sure you know what you're doing. Cause I will end you Anabelle!" I spat in her face with eyes full of fear from my panther, who was ready to shift and tear this insolent child apart.

I quickly turned on my heel just as the last bell rung for second period. I ran to my next class just a minute late and tried to sit down before Mr. Connelly noticed I was late. But could I be that lucky? NOPE! As I was running in the classroom my shoelace was loose and I stepped on it in my hurry and so I tripped and fell forward nearly knocking Mr. Connelly down. Mr. Connelly stabled me and glared at me.

"Late already, Miss Katiyana? And only the first day." he said with venom dripping from every word.

I gave him a cute lopsided grin and shoved my way past him.
