Chapter 3 Ace Anderson

Ace Anderson POV

Everyone around began to murmur lowly among themselves.

I mean, who wouldn't.

The stupid creature standing over there is laughing at me, for heaven's sake, she would be the first to.

I am Ace Anderson, no one dares laugh at me.

I am fierce, respected and feared by everyone. This tiny ant can't do this shit and go away like nothing ever happened.

Never...

"Are you seriously laughing out right now?" The girl beside her whispered to her, I could hear that.

"What else, I mean... Bailey, what can you see me do?"

"Come on, girl, you just harassed Ace Anderson, he's going to kill you!" The girl called Bailey replied.

She's even sensible.

" Do you call that harassed?" She laughed lowly.

" Who is this chicken?" I thought and clenched my jaw.

Marcus turned to me and back at the girl.

"You are laughing, it's embarrassing Layla" she replied, grabbing unto her arm

"I actually laughed out because of the way he yelled out, and his facial expression was hilarious, that's all. I don't find it embarrassing, Bailey" she replied with a shrug.

" Are you going to stand there and keep saying this nonsense?" I yelled out immediately.

She turned to me with an innocent face

" Oh, I'm sorry, I never saw you coming" she replied, folding her lips in.

" Sorry? Is that what you said, huh?, Sorry?" I asked with a scoff

" What else am I supposed to say Young Man?? I just apologized, is that hard to understand??" She replied.

And again I am shocked.

" Hey, you must be a newbie, isn't it?" Zak asked her.

She stared at him coldly and looked away "I already apologized, I am sorry" she sighed and turned to her friend.

" Let's go now, shall we?" She smiled, but her other Friend refused to move.

" Uh...are you certain...we still haven't settled this matter, I mean, Look at him, he is still mad Layla" she muttered lowly, already shaking.

" What else is there to settle, Bailey?" She asked and pulled her hand away.

" Him..."

"Do you have an idea of the consequences you are going to face, hmm?" Raynard asked her as he tucked his hands into his pocket and raised his brows at her.

" Consequences? Sorry, I don't understand" she replied with a low laugh.

And again she is laughing, it just sounds disgusting to my ears.

I looked at her closely and found out she had a handkerchief in her pocket, the pocket of her suit jacket.

I took in a deep breath and slowly walked to her, "Layla...." I could hear her friend cry lowly.

" What?" She asked me, raising her head up.

First, she didn't look scared

She had this 'duh' look on her face that's really getting me mad.

" Are you insane or something?"

" Excuse you! I should be the one asking you that, why would you just walk to me and say nothing else but to insult me" she scoffed as she rolled her eyes and folded her hands

The low sounds students around were making seemed to be getting louder.

"You really don't know who I am" I groaned lowly and slowly stretched out my hand to the handkerchief in her pocket.

"I can see and don't need to be told you're a newbie" I added and stared at the small piece of handkerchief in my hand.

Well, it looked neat and was actually smelling nice.

Her eyes went wide immediately she saw me wipe my face with it.

"I don't share tha-" her statement was interrupted the moment I let go of it to the ground and stomped my feet on it.

Everyone gasped.

"What are you doing!!" She yelled out, but that didn't stop me from trampling it.

I had a look of disgust on my face, "I wouldn't want you to use what has already been used on my skin, idiot!" I clicked my tongue and took slow steps back with my eyes fixed on hers intently.

She kept glaring at me, obviously I could see she clenched her jaw and her fist.

God,

What type of girl is this??

She even has the guts to look at me that way...

No one ever does!

"Are you out of your mind!!" She yelled out as she shook her head vigorously.

I was about to speak up until Marcus walked to me and held my hands.

"Hey dude, let her be...let's go" he said in a whisper beside me.

With that, I found out I really shouldn't waste my precious time standing with a maniac.

MINUTES LATER

Layla POV

I'm seated right now in the class with Bailey sitting right beside me.

We are currently having chemistry class and in a few minutes, it'd be over.

Dinnnnnngggg! The siren rang so loud, signaling the period was over.

"That's it, until our next class, students" Mr. Walton said as he picked up his books and walked down the pulpit.

"Thank you sir" Every student in the class chorused

I must say, the lectures are wonderful. It's everything I've been looking for. Still, I didn't enjoy the class.

I know I should have, The professor, Mr. Walton, is really one of a kind.

At least I never felt sleepy throughout the class like I use to.

I'm sure I would have enjoyed the class, if not that I had eyes on me and that made me really feel uncomfortable. The way girls and even the guys kept eyeing me and murmuring really made me feel like slamming my table and yelling out, but, I remembered what my dad said this morning.

I should be a good girl for him and cause no trouble.

"Fvck" I clicked my tongue and turned to look at Bailey, she was packing up her books in her hands and kept some in her bag.

"I know you are looking at me, I can sense that Layla" she giggled lowly and turned to me.

I gave a side smile and nodded my head, "yeah sure why not?"

I turned back to my table and attempted to pack my books until a feminine hand with over 10 rings worn and tattoos all over slammed my desk hardly.

"What the!" I exclaimed as I flinched back and raised my head to see a three girls standing before me.

Standing in the middle was the one that slammed my desk.

She had this gothic look on her face.

Her lips were pierced, and her brows were too.

My eyes went to her ears immediately and yeah, I wasn't wrong, just as I thought, she also had more than four extra piercings on her left ear.

"Ohh" I said immediately out of disgust.

"What!" She barked immediately

"No, I should ask you what the hell are you looking for here? Why would you just slam my desk?? That's a senseless thing to do, young lady." I said immediately and folded my hands.

"I see you're really playing tough, I'll just say this to you, Ace Anderson isn't the type you should toy or mess up with. He's our Ace, our Alpha, you crazy newbie." She replied.

Oh...

"Get that into your fvcking head, or you'd pay with your life" she replied and glared at me before she turned to leave with her minions.

" I see there aren't just chemistry students here, there are broadcasters" I clicked my tongue and rolled my eyes.

"Don't mind her, Layla" Bailey said to me.

I turned to her with a scoff, "you know I won't baby" I replied with a side smile but the moment I turned to my right, my eyes caught no one else but the annoying rude brat, Ace Anderson.

****

Time was going by so fast, I was seated in the cafeteria with Bailey.

A tray of milkshake and doughnuts were before me, while Bailey had a tray of chocolate cake and a big bowl of ice cream, the vanilla flavored one.

"Uh mm Bailey, aren't you supposed to be eating food and not junk?" I asked her

She had just finished eating croissant rolls and was about to dig into the cake.

"You know me, Layla" she replied with a shrug.

I sighed and shook my head.

"So what's with this Ace of a person?" I asked her and took my cup of milkshake in my hand.

"Oh, Alpha Ace Anderson, you mean..." she replied

"Yeah that kid" I replied

"He's the one and only Alpha chosen by the moon goddess to be the leader of his wolf shifter clan, Everbite pack" she replied

" Oh..."

"And what about him?"

"Well, Ace Anderson is really, really not the type to mess up with Layla. Emma was right when she said that"

"Oh...okay..." I replied, taking a sip into my mouth, and paid full attention to her saying.

"He can be very rude, arrogant, he's very hot-tempered and, to be honest, he is strong headed" she said and took the last part lowly.

"Oh..."

"Well, not just him though, even his parents are that way, I mean... His dad especially. You see, Ace should be someone you'd pray not to have an issue with here at West bridge university. He is not the only Alpha in this building, there are vampires here too, different supernatural creatures Layla, but you see Ace?, He's the most feared"

Yeah, she's right about the school though, that's another reason I love West bridge university.

It's not just a school for werewolves.

Other creatures too are here, left to me to explore.

" And why?" I replied

" What? The last time an Alpha from another pack stood to question Ace and talk shit about Ace, he paid dearly with his life" she replied and took a scoop of her ice cream.

" Wow...and the school said nothing about it?" I asked her wide-eyed.

"Don't tell me you don't know Ace parents own this university, Layla!" Her jaw dropped as she stared at me blank.

"Okay, I won't" I raised my hands in the air.

"Better, I mean, we are here to get educated and have nothing to do with Ace or his Dad"

"Ace is this handsome guy, filthy rich and super heartless at the same time, he yells all the time like a woman having hard labor, I mean it's annoying to the ears and still, when he talks, damn... That thick voice of his could make you drool" she cried out

"Eww.. You look disgusting right now" I clicked my tongue.

"Okay, I'm being serious, I mean you saw it too. He is really handsome, not just him, his friends are too, and they are all the same except Marcus, though. From what I've seen so far, Marcus is really cool. He's been friends with Ace Since their childhood age" she replied.

"Oh... I guess you're referring to the gentleman with blonde hair, the one that stopped that jerk Ace from talking, right?" I asked with a pout.

"Exactly! Now we're communicating" she smiled and I rolled my eyes.

Not as if we never were.

"Well he's handsome though, I really don't see anything in Ace, not like he's the top handsome" I clicked my tongue.

Bailey stared at me and laughed out.

" He hates being corrected, Damn, I remember when a female teacher months back did that to him, he nearly killed her that day" she added

"Always angry, I've never seen that he goat smile for once in his life. It's like all his teeth would fall out if he does" she laughed and just then we heard someone yell out.

"I SAID DON'T TOUCH ME!" the voice was coming from the other end of the hall.

I stretched my head and saw Ace with his friends standing together with a small girl, I guess, trying to hold Ace by his elbow.

" I'm so sorry, please just take the cake I made for you" she said to him and tried to touch him again.

" Are you deaf, you psycho?!" He barked and pushed her back, making her fall on her ass with the cake all over her face.

" Hey!!!" I found myself yelling

" Shit! Layla down now..." Bailey said as she held my hand, stopping me from moving further.

I pulled my hand away and walked out.

Ace stopped and turned to look at me. I saw him take a deep breath and roll his eyes.

"If it's not this crazy thing" his other friend said

"What the hell is the meaning of that? Is that the way you treat people?!!" I yelled, getting the attention of everyone in the cafeteria.

"And who the hell do you think you are to question me" he replied.

I ignored him and walked towards the girl he pushed away, but before I could do anything, a hand which I suspect to be his grabbed my shoulders and pulled me back.

"Listen to me you b!tvh"

"It's Layla you asshole" I replied, and his eyes went open.

"How dare you!" He yelled and pushed me to the ground.

Great!

Just great!

My hair went all over my face immediately, I looked up at him, glaring into his eyes.

The next thing I found myself doing was to grab a piece of the cake, and slap it on his face.

"Oh my!!"I gasped.

"Jeez!"

"What the."

Everyone gasped.
