Capítulo 9: Probation

Bale.

"Dude, she was terrified". Jordan tells me and I raise a brow. Who are we even talking about again? Cause I completely spaced out thinking about the trial I just had with those fucking puppets.

It was all going well in the beginning. I was having fun looking at the frustrations on their faces when everything suddenly took a U-turn.

They had to bring father into this and even told me about the decisions and orders he passed.

I was asked to stay off school premises for days and I'm kinda officially a code x even without killing anybody.

Pftt... I guess I should've killed him then.

But what'd you know? Defanging did the trick, huh?

He's totally useless now cause what's a vamp without fangs? Sure, they'll grow back but that would take a while; a very long, long time.

"Who?" I ask him as we stroll out of the school building into his car.

He starts the car and pushes the button. "Your one night stand. Her name is Sharon by the way".

Jordan is my best friend, but I call him my brother. He's an alpha and the most calm person I have ever met. Nothing riles him. He's a special case.

You know the saying opposite attracts? That was basically what happened in our case. He never reacted to anything I did to him as a kid and always patted me on the head when I was unable to control myself as though he was older when we were literally the same age.

Coming from a kid who everyone was terrified of, he was the only brave one that pissed his pants but still looked me in the eye and extended his arm for a handshake.

Our families came together because of us and it had been that way ever since. I was a kid who hated people and never mingled and father had been looking for solutions not until Jordan came along. Our friendship bonded our packs together.

He was the only person I accepted as a kid and it remained that way. Gradually he became a brother who I could trust and rely on.

We were even sent to the same school just so we could look out for each other.

"You always leave before they wake up, that's an asshole move".

Ah, he's talking about the girl from yesterday but all I can think about is how to relieve this unnerving stress I feel. "Why the fuck should I stay and watch her when she had all the fun?"

I rub my temple. He is watching me but his eyes are on the road. "Tough trial? Wanna blow off some steam?"

We get to a U-turn and he corners to the next road. "I'm hosting a party..." He tells me.

I don't even wait for him complete his words "Count me out of it". I tell him deadpan.

"C'mon man, you need to fuck somebody so you don't kill somebody".

I mean, he's not wrong, I need to keep my emotions in check but I hate parties. I hate it because it's always packed with people.

And I hate people.

The combination of various scents in general makes me sick to the guts and I might lose it and go wild.

"You didn't kill that vamp that day because you weren't in one of those moods". He stops the car in front of Prestige forestation and turns to look at me. "Think about it, you're on probation, take some time off and relief your stress the best way you can".

He tells me. "You don't wanna get on Alpha Don's nerves again. That would be bad".

"Dude, you need this".

I know this is a bad idea, I know I shouldn't be listening to Jordan, but between him and I, he's got the most rational ideas. And he's right, father will not take it likely again if I slip up one more time.

My hands are tied as it is.

Oh, fuck it.

"Fine, but I'm staying for just five minutes ". I exhale and he smiles. "Oh five minutes is more than enough time to get you laid".

He keeps the smile on his face, taking his eyes to the forest ahead then back at me. "Wanna race?"
