The alpha teacher's mate

Chapter 4

it was Monday morning and I was really nervous. my thoughts were racing faster than I could process them. I couldn't control one wolf let alone thirty people both wolf and human. The call I had with my father eased my nerves a tiny bit,  'humans can't hurt you especially teenagers and as for the wolves you are an alpha son so show them'. I got dressed in a black suit with braces and a black tie, I paired this with black derby shoes, my hair was in its usual mess and I wore my glasses. I walked out of the room and was surprised to see Sam cooking chocolate chip pancakes and a steaming cup of coffee was sitting on the table.

Sam wore his signature black ripped jeans but instead of a twenty-one pilots shirt he wore a bright pink The 1975  jumper since it was chilly, he paired this with black converses and a black beanie, he had pink plugs in and his bracelets but he had added a few more from what I had given him.

"you told me you like pancakes, so I thought I would make you some so that you feel at home"

"thank you, Sam, that means a lot"

He sat a plate of 5 pancakes in front of me once I sat down and I ruffled his hair, he groaned in annoyance but was smiling as he made himself some pancakes. I took a bite of a pancake and moaned as the melted chocolate hit my taste buds which caused Sam to blush to the tips of his ears, it was adorable.

"oh my god, who taught you how to make these"

"my friend Alana, if you like these, you would die if she ever made you a lasagna"

I hummed in appreciation and we continued to make small talk on what he likes to do for fun. he likes to write songs and watch romance movies, he was embarrassed but everyone has different tastes so I promised him that it didn't matter. I also learned that both of Sam's parents died when he was a child whilst they were running by the border, they were shot by hunters and pronounced dead by the time they reached the pack house. Sam tried to shrug it off but I knew it hurt him that he didn't get to know his parents because he was so young. He stayed at the pack house because he had no other known living family members. I felt so sorry for him and reassured him that he could stay here as long as he wanted to. Once we reached the school I turned to Sam, he was fiddling with his bracelets and looking at his lap as if it was the most interesting thing he ever saw. 

"here is some money for school, if you need anything just call me and I will come straight away even if you think it is stupid, it might not be"

Sam hesitantly took the money from me and nodded his head before jumping out of the car and slamming the door shut so that I could go to the teachers parking area. I got out the car and locked it whilst making my way to the front desk. when I walked in a man in his mid 40's stood up with a smile that I could tell was fake but at least he was trying to be polite. I could instantly smell that he was a wolf which made this so much easier since he should know that I am an Alpha.

"Mr. Lycan, I am principle sharp and it's nice to meet you. Let me take you on a tour of the school grounds and I will then show you your classroom for the year, unfortunately, we are short on staff so you will have to substitute for a few maths classes but I have been told that you are a very smart man so I trust your capabilities"

"it's nice to meet you too principle sharp, that is fine I love maths so it shouldn't be a problem"

We began to walk out of the office towards the front of the school, principle sharp showed me the English department on the first floor, my room was the third room on the right-hand side. After setting my bags down he showed me the teachers lounge at the end of the hall. We then proceeded to the second floor which was the science department, after we went to the third floor which was the maths department. as we walked back down to my classroom, principle sharp told me that the building next to the one we were currently in is the creative department, which consisted of art, physical education and design, and technology.

"if you need anything Mr. Lycan don't be afraid to ask one of the other teachers and students"

I nodded my head in thanks and shut the door to my room, I checked my watch and sighed in relief when I realized I still had one hour until class starts at 9 am. I began to empty my bags, first I took out my laptop, I then took out pens, papers, and stickers, I left my last bag because it just held my lunch and some files that Mickey faxed for me to check. As I sat there setting up my computer my phone began to ring. I was going to let the phone go to voicemail until I saw it was Sam.

"Hey, Sam ar-"

"Hello, this is Sam's friend Alana. He is with me and we are behind the main building could you come over please"

I told her that I was on my way and hung up the phone, leaving the classroom I made sure to lock the door before making my way to sam. when him crying in the corner crying and shaking, I instantly ran towards him ignoring the other person with him. Taking him in my arms I told him to take deep breaths. He kept trying to speak but I put my finger to his lips and told him to listen to me.

"Sam you are going to be alright, I promise just keep taking deep breaths with me, you're doing well keep going"

I continued to soothe Sam until he stopped hyperventilating, I took my handkerchief and handed it to him so that he could blow his nose as I continued to rock him back and forth like Mabel used to do when I had panic attacks. He lied in my arms motionless looking into space whilst I began to wonder who the hell caused him to have a panic attack so quickly when I had only left him for a half an hour at most.

I took a deep breath in and smelt that amazing smell, my eyes searched for the smell until my eyes locked onto the most beautiful girl I had ever seen. she stood at 5'2 wearing a brown baggy crop jumper with black high waisted jeans that were paired with doc martins. she was very pale almost like snow, her auburn hair cascaded down her back in curls and her wide catlike golden eyes that had flecks of green blinked wildly in shock and her plump lips open in a silent gasp. my eyes glowed in delight. mate.

As if stepping out of her trance she picked up owl backpack and ran towards the front of the school. Sam looked at me in confusion but he knew not to ask questions, lifting him in my arms I stood up before putting him to his feet as if he weighed no more than a feather. we began to walk to English together since Sam's first lesson was in my classroom. I couldn't stop the thoughts racing through my head. Does she not like me, is she going to reject me, I couldn't handle it if she did, as if sensing my inner battle Sam stopped and turned to me causing me to stop.

"Don't worry Hunter, if she didn't like you she would have stayed because she worries for me, she must trust you especially her wolf since her wolf is very protective almost like a mother"

I smiled at that but I was still kind of worried, maybe he was saying that so I wouldn't worry. I didn't voice my thoughts to Sam though, he didn't need to deal with my problems as well as his own. When we reached the classroom I checked the clock as saw at I still had 15 minutes before my first class began, ignoring my nerves I turned to Sam who had taken a seat at the back of the classroom with his bag on the chair next to him and his feet propped up on the desk.

"Sam get your feet off of the desk and move the bag, also don't think I have forgotten what happened outside, we will talk after school"

He took his feet off of the desk and nodded his head, I looked at him again so that he would take his bag off, but before I could utter a word my mate walked into the classroom. she pushed Sam's bag off of the chair and sat down after putting her bag under the table. She turned to Sam and whispered something in his ear clearly not noticing me yet and Sam smiled and nodded his head in my direction. she looked up and gasped in surprise before mumbling something under her breath barely audible but I heard it with my hearing. 'The hot English teacher is my mate'. her voice sounded like a soft melody and I knew it would be stuck in my head forever. she put her head on the desk to hide her face and I chuckled, Sam was right, she does like me. I began to walk towards them but the bell rang signaling the beginning of class, taking a deep breath I began the lesson whilst trying to remember her name, knowing Sam had mentioned a girl being his best friend before.

er name is Alana.
