The OFF LIMITS Alpha

Chapter Two

I love Connor but I really wanted to murder him in gym today because he made us run killers the whole hour of class.

I finally got changed into my clothes for school after class and then I quickly shut my gym locker and had to walk my hallway locker.

"So yesterday day was your birthday huh?" Someone asked behind me.

I turned to see Drake, one of my pack mates. I smiled and hugged him. Then I playfully glared.

"You missed my birthday," I said pouting.

"I'm sorry Quinny, just know that I love you so much," Drake said kissing my cheek.

I giggled but then kissed his cheek.

"I love you too Drake," I said back.

"You two love birds, get over here," Mason said grinning.

"Come on Mas, we're just good friends!" I said.

"She's like my little sister!" Drake defended.

"Plus Drakey-poo here, has a mate remember?" I asked.

"Oh that's right, mystery girl that's in this pack," Mason said grinning.

"We both know that it's Alison guys," I said.

Drake turned bright red and then he gave me that look that he was going to get me. I hurried and ran through the halls with Drake following me. I started to laugh and run faster, and since I'm alpha I could beat Drake but I kept my speed slow enough that he could get me if he went a little faster.

"Quinnlyn get back here right now!" Drake yelled at me.

I quickly came to a stop and at the last moment I swung around and sent poor Drake flying back a few feet.

"Ouch, Drakey-poo, are you okay?" I asked before grinning.

"Quinnlyn!" A stern voice said behind me.

I slowly turned around to see my brother Connor giving me a look. I slowly stood up straight and just smirked at him.

"Hey Con, came to watch me have some fun?" I asked still smirking.

"Yeah Quinny, that's exactly what I came to do," Connor said rolling his eyes.

"Well then, take a seat and watch the show, I'll even give you time to get popcorn," I said with a wink.

"You're so sarcastic, you need to grow up," Connor said sternly.

I frowned and looked closely at Connor. He looked royally pissed off at me and he's usually so nice to me. I just stood there frozen.

"Con," I began but he cut me off.

"You're an alpha Quinnlyn, start acting like one, if Mom was here she'd be so ashamed," Connor said.

I whimpered before I ran off. Everyone was there watching my brother and me in the cafeteria and I couldn't handle them look at me anymore.

Connor's never been this mean, and he was so nice to me when he found out I didn't find my mate. I felt the tears fall down my face and I fell against the wall and sat on the floor and just cried. I felt someone's hand on my shoulder but I couldn't look up to see who it was.

"Quinnlyn?" Liz asked.

"Please just go away," I whimpered.

"I'm sorry," Liz said hugging me.

She left a minute later and all I could do is let the tears fall down my face.

I quickly looked up to look around the hallways when I saw Ren standing frozen by his locker. He looked sad but I figured he was probably uncomfortable since I was crying. I quickly got up and went to find the bathroom.

When I walked passed Ren he grabbed my hand. I felt the warmth flood through my body but I mostly just wanted to cry so I quickly hugged him and cried. After a few minutes of him being stiff he finally relaxed and rubbed my back tryng to comfort me. He wiped the tears that went down my cheeks.

"What's wrong?" Renier asked after what felt like a lifetime of silence.

His hands felt like fire burning my skin but with such a sweet warmth that I craved. When he backed away a little so he could get a better look at me, I felt like I was stepping on shiny, broken little shards of glass because I hate that he's seeing me at my weak moment. I also missed his warmth and all my emotions were just so overwhelming.

"Quinn?" Ren asked.

"My brother was disappointed in me, he's never been mean to me before and he.. he.. he told me to grow up," I said beginning to cry again.

Ren quickly hugged me again and tried to calm me down but I became dizzy and fainted. I don't remember much but I remember hitting my knees on the cold tiled floors and then the darkness swallowed me. I remember a voice sounding like an angel, or maybe it was an angel but I'm not certain.

After awhile I began to regain conscious, colors and light began to come back in my vision.

"Quinnlyn?" I reconized as my friend Freyah.

I opened my eyelids but they dropped again. I kept trying but then I gave up and just listened to the voices around me. My throat felt like it was on fire and I was sufficating from smoke.

I heard all of my pack mates, Sabrina, Mason, Alison, Drake, Zach, Olivia, Nick, Liz, and Freyah.

"What happened?" A girl asked, I think it was Sabrina.

"Ren brought her to the nurse and the nurse said Quinn was depressed, partly from not finding her mate and the other part being that she went through the transformation by herself, so she's really weak. Only time will tell if she'll be able to survive," Liz said, and I could hear the tears that fell down her cheeks.

If I was able to, I would try to calm her down but I felt like my body was tied to the bed in the nurse's office.

"Quinny's strong, she'll be okay," Zach said.

"Everyone needs to leave so I can check up on Quinnlyn Zenson," I think it was the school nurse talking.

I sighed in my head but I knew this was her job. She began checking my pulse and doing blood test but I'm not sure why, she also checked my heart beat and stuff.

"Hey Ms. Carson, I know no one's suppose to visit Quinnlyn but can I please, please see her?" A guy asked.

"Ren, I know you're a ladies man, but you're dating Ashlee so you really shouldn't see Ms. Zenson," Ms. Carson, the nurse replied.

"Please don't repeat this to anyone else, but she's my mate," Ren said.

"But you and Ashlee..." Ms. Carson said.

"I like Ashlee, but Quinn is my mate and I need to be with her," Renier begged.

"Fine, but don't tell anyone I let you in here after visiting hours," Ms. Carson said.

Darn it, that means something must be serious enough that Ms. Carson took me to the pack doctor's office instead of keeping me at the school.

"Hey Quinn," Ren said lightly brushing my hair away from my face.

"I know that you probably can't hear me but I think I'm going to break up with Ashlee because you're my mate and even though you don't know it yet, I do, as soon as you wake up you will realize it too," Ren said.

I felt lips lightly brush against mine. That was the moment I could finally move a little bit so I moved my lips with his but lightly enough that he wouldn't notice, I can't get in the middle of him and Ashlee, they deserve each other and I can't be the awful person to do that. Even though I'm kissing him now, I'm going to count it as a goodbye kiss.

Ren pulled away and I felt his arms wrapped around my waist and my back getting pulled to his chest. I felt his warm breathe against my ear.

I'm going to be honest, I don't know how he didn't feel me kissing him back, but I'm thankful that he didn't.

"I'm sorry I never realized you were my mate until now, I never understood why I helped you yesterday when you were mad and I never understood why I didn't like seeing you cry today, and I can't believe I never noticed you until yesterday," Ren whispered.

I didn't know what to do but I decided to take the safe route and let sleep overtake me.
