Ein POV

I knew that one bottle of blue hair dye wasn't gonna last me the entire school year, so I decided to go to Hot Topics to see if I could get another one. I walked inside to see the same human at the cash register. I turned to leave when I overheard the conversation he was having with a couple other people that were there.

"Listen," said the human at the cash register. "Just get me the pictures as soon as possible ok? I need them."

"We'll do our best." said a girl with white hair.

I decided to eavesdrop just in case I could use this as an opportunity. I pretended to be looking through some clothes as I listened to them.

"Get them as soon as possible. I will be needing them." said the human at the register.

"We'll try. And, we'll be back soon with the pictures. Come on Sasha, let's go." said the other kid next to the white haired girl.

"You better." said the human at the cash register.

Sasha and the boy left, and the boy at the register looked bored. That's when I thought that maybe I could get the pictures instead of those two people.

I went up to the human.

"Oh, it's you. What do you want?" asked the human at the register.

I almost gave him a piece of my mind for treating me like that. But then I remembered the dye. I took a deep breath. "I couldn't help but overhear the conversation you were having." I said.

"Oh.....yeah. What about it?" he asked.

"What if I got you the pictures you want in return for the dye?" I asked.

Suddenly, he seemed a bit interested. "And what makes you think YOU can get them?" he scoffed.

"I'm new around here, so nobody really knows me. I could easily get the picture, seeing as I don't have a reputation for much of anything yet."

"I can see this working. Those two idiots are never gonna get the pictures I need. Plus, you're a werewolf which could be a bonus......"

"Ok, so who do you need the pictures of?"

"Do you go to Phoenix Drop High?"

"Yeah."

"There's a girl there. Her name is Aphmau, the alpha female. I need the pictures of her."

"I can't go near her because I'm the omega."

The human looked annoyed again. "It's really easy to become her friend. Even though you're the omega or whatever, she'll befriend you."

My ears perked up. I had a chance! "What do I need to do?" I asked.

"Just play yourself as Mr. Nice Guy and make her feel bad for you. She'll take pity and befriend you for as long as you keep that up." he replied.

"Ok, how many pictures do you need?" I asked. I couldn't believe this was going so well!

"At least three. The more, the better." he answered.

"Got it. You have a deal." I said. Then I put my hand out. "Can I have the dye?"

"Not until you fulfill your part of the deal." he replied.

"Fine." I said. I then turned to leave. Then it hit me that this guy could help me out in more than the dye. He seemed to know a bunch about Aphmau for some reason. I turned back.

"Actually, can I add one more thing to the deal?" I asked.

"What do you want?" the boy sighed.

"Advice on how to become the alpha male." I replied.

"Just befriend her like I said, and keep the act up long enough. The alpha male from last year graduated to college so you're in luck. If you can get her to like and trust you enough, that position is as good as yours." he said.

"Got it. By the way, what's your name? I'll need to remember it for when I complete my part of the deal." I said.

"Gene," he replied. "Yours?"

"Ein," I answered. "You'll have those pictures soon."

"You better. If those two idiots manage to get good pictures before you do, then the deal is over." said Gene.

"Fine. I'll see you soon." I replied. Then I left the store and headed back home. I looked at the tiny bottle I had right now and figured that I should last me long enough to get those pictures, so I didn't worry too much. I was ready to become the alpha male, and make sure this pack doesn't end up like the one Acacia and I had to break up. I knew that the best way to that, especially in this environment, is to make sure that everybody, even outside the pack, knows their place and that all the werewolves in the pack acts like true werewolves should.
