The Alpha's Broken Mate

Chapter 6: Stalking

Adam's P.O.V.

I saw my mate about to enter the main office, but my image of her was gone once a figure stepped in front of me.

"Hey." She purred. I cringed in disgust. We were never a thing, Veronica is just desperate. She told rumors about having a 'wild' night with me. Be being them, believed them. How could they believe them? They don't see us kissing or other stuff a couple would usually do.

I was brought back from my trance when she started leaning forward, puffing out her lips and closing her eyes.

I grabbed hold of her shoulders, and pushed her back. She pouted and stomped her foot on the floor. Just before she was about to try again, the bell rung. I silently cheered, stepped aside and walked to my first class.

Cameron was besides me laughing. "Dude, that was not funny." I said, annoyed. "Yes it was! Did you see how her lips looked? She thinks pouting make her look more 'sexy' I think it makes her more ugly."

He sighed still laughing, "I wish her mate would come up soon, feel sorry for him." He gasps, "What if he rejects her?" I pat his back, "We could only hope."

"If he does, I wouldn't feel sorry for him." Cameron said as he opened the door for me. I thanked him and found my seat taken by my mate.

I sat down next to her, she didn't bother looking up. Wasn't she a couple years younger than me? Why would she be in a senior year class?

Once everyone was here, the teacher started teaching. In the middle of her lesson, she asked someone to go in front of the class to show how they did their work.

No one raised their hands. She gave us annoyed looks until she looked at Penelope. "Penelope, would you please come up and show how you found your answer?"

She looked up and slowly walked up there. Penelope went up to the board and shakily took the marker.

It took her at least five minutes to write down her answer. She quickly went back to her seat with her head down.

"Good job, Penelope. That is the correct answer." The teacher said. Some people mumbled under their breathe and said, "Nerd."

I growled lowly at that but no one questioned. The class ended and my mate quickly walked out of the class.

I walked out of the class just to see her walk into her next class, which we didn't share. The day continued fast as I have classes with my mate.

It was lunch time, my friends were waving their hands calling me over. Most of my friends had mates, except for Cameron and I.

I looked over the cafeteria looking for Penelope. I didn't see her and that brought down my mood. "I'm going to go look for someone." I said bluntly. I walked out of the cafeteria and searched for my mate.

I walked out of the school building, looking around. I saw my mate on a bench, with her head down. She had a packed lunch but the looks of it, she hasn't eaten any of it.

"Adam's stalking his mate." I heard someone say behind me. I turned around and saw my friends, including Cameron.

"Am not." I defended myself. "Are too." They said simultaneously. "Who is she?" Charlie, Gamma female, said. "It's Penelope, and Adam is already whipped." Cameron smirked.

I turned around, not wanting to hear any more of the conversation, but I didn't see Penelope anywhere.

The bell rung, signaling that the period is over. "C'mon lover boy." Mason, Gamma, said. I growled at him, but he just laughed.
