Electing The Alpha

Chapter 41:

Jake POV:
I can't believe this guy is my step brother! He took the love of my life away from me. I know I'm doing my best to forget Nikki but I still like her and I miss her. Her scent, her eyes, her hair, everything!  I hate him! I also hate her because she lied to me but its impossible to hate the person you love!

I take the tennis racket and the ball. I'm glad I got the opportunity to face this guy. I want to hit him in the face with this ball so badly. I don't care if we are related!

The whistle goes and I throw the ball in the air and hit it with my racket. It heads straight for him and he hits it. I hit it back and he hits it. Damn! He was good!
I hit it harder this time hoping he will lose it. No! He didn't! He whacked it back. Was this guy some wizard or something?

I whacked it even harder this time and he whacks it with the same strength. I lose the ball. Fuck!!!
"Mr Russell wins!" Our teacher announces and gives him a medal.

He smiles proudly at me. I'm extremely angry. Why is this guy good in everything? He is good in soccer, calculus, tennis and even attracting girls. Aargh!
I know I'm jealous. Especially for the fact that he has Nikki beside him.

Nikki goes to him and hugs him. My heart drops.
"That was great Alec!" She says in a bubbly tone. She has never talked to me in that tone before. My jealousy builds up.

Alec chuckles.
"How did you do that?" Aaron asks.
"The  tennis coach helped me"he brags and I feel like punching his face. He has a tennis coach?

"You mean Kate's Father?" Nikki asks and he nods. Kate's father? What the fuck? I don't understand.

"Darling! That was awesome!" Kate says and embraces me. My mind is still processing what I just heard.

"Don't be sad if Alec beat you! He's just good in things! He's a natural" Kate tells me and my blood boils

"Your dad trained him right?" I spit without thinking.
She is caught off guard. She chuckles slightly.
"What are you talking about?" She asks as if talking to a madman.

"Your dad is a tennis coach and he trained him Kate!" I yell at her and everyone looks at me.

"Mr Winters please don't shout" the teacher says.
I think Alec heard it. He will know I eavesdropped on his conversation. He drives me insane!  He gives me a small smile and Nikki has a frown on her face.

Alec walks to me.
"Yes he did brother! Her father trained me" He spits and I feel rage.

"Alec! What are you doing?" Kate scolds.
"Telling the truth Kate!" Alec spits.
Kate scoffs.

"So now you know! Don't get too worked up brother!" Alec says with a smile.

"You are brothers?" Kate asks.

"They are brothers?" Aaron asks Nikki.

I flash him a smile.
"That's nice brother! I'm happy for you" I say with fake enthusiasm.

He nods and embraces me. I hit back even though I didn't want to.
"See ya" he spits and leaves.

"You are brothers?" Kate asks me but I ignore her and pack my stuff. Its closing and I want to get out of here.

💚💚💚
"Jake wait!" Kate yells as she runs after me to the parking lot.

"What?!" I bark at her.

"I know you are upset but would you here me out for just ten minutes" she asks.

I sigh.
"Ten minutes it is" I reply.

"Its true my father is a tennis coach and he trained Alec" she spills and I listen. I don't know why am behaving like this.

"Alec and I were in a relationship then and he and my father got really close. My father wanted to train him so that he could become a star player one day so he trained both of us."
