Learning To Live Again

Chapter 3

Wally’s POV

I woke up late for school this morning. Damion and I were up late dealing with some pack business and as Beta I had to be there. I rushed this morning and almost forgot my car keys as I was leaving. On my way to school I mind linked with Damion to see what I had missed so far during class. He told me that we had a new girl who was staying with the Kents, and that Jason was being an ass.

When I finally made it to school I walked through the halls towards my class but I slowed down when I noticed the couples skipping class and kissing and holding hands in the hall. I wondered how much longer I would need to wait till I could do that with my mate. I wondered if I would even be able to find her.

As I walked into the class Mr. Davidson greeted me, he told me what the work was and told me to take my seat. As I started to walk to my seat I smelled the most wondrous sent I have ever smelt. When I was two rows from my seat I say a gorgeous girl that I have never saw before. I realised that this must be the new girl that Damion was talking about. When she looked up and our eyes connected I froze where I was. Everything slowed down and the only one that I saw was her. This girl was my mate. Only a few minutes ago I thought that I would never find her, but yet here she was, sitting in front of my seat. I started walking but instead of going to my seat I went to Emily who was sitting beside her.

I told Emily to switch seats with me so I could sit beside my mate. As I sat down I could hear her heart speed up and I smiled to myself happy that I had that effect on her.

 “Hi, names Wallace but you can call me Wally,” I said.

“Malia,” she replied back.

Malia, what a beautiful name I thought. It sounded unique and exotic but it suited her perfectly.

“So where are you from,” I asked, trying to find out more about her.

“If you don’t mind, I really want to get this work done,” she told me.

“Hey Wally, give it a rest, she wouldn’t even talk to Emily earlier,” Jason said.

I turned around and glared at Jason and mind linked with him and the rest of the group.

“You need to watch your tone around her from now on Jason, and that goes for the rest of you,” I warned everybody.

“Alpha?” Jason asked Damion.

“Wally, what with you today?” Damion asked.

“Malia’s my mate,” I told them as they all got a shocked look on there face and a few congratulations as I turned back to face Malia.

Just as I was about to ask her what her next class the bell rang signaling the end of the class. Malia quickly gathered her stuff up and ran from the room before I could say anything.

I turned around to Emily to ask her what was wrong with my mate.

“I don’t know, she seemed really shy and didn’t want to talk at all. All I know is that she is staying with the Kents while she is in school,” Emily told me as we began walking out of the room towards our next class.

I decided that I was going to go find out more about so I left my friends and went to the office to see Ms. Williams. As I walked into the office, Ms. Williams looked up and smiled when she saw me.

“Wallace dear, how are you,” she asked.

“I’m fine Ms. Williams, but I have a few questions about Malia, you know the new girl?” I told her.

“Oh yes,” she gushed. “Such a nice girl. A little quiet, but still nice. What do you want to know?” she asked.

“Everything you know,” I demanded.

“All her file says is that she transferred from Chicago, and that the Kents are acting as her legal guardians. Her full name is Malia Keahi, and she is originally from Hawaii,” Ms. Williams told me.

“Thanks a lot Ms. Willams,” I yelled as I ran out of the office not paying attention to what she said back.

I was disappointed when I found out that she wasn’t in the rest of my morning classes and my wolf didn’t like it either. The only thing that kept us calm was knowing that we would be able to see her during lunch and I made a promise to myself that I would get her to tell me more about her before the day was up.
