Chapter 02

"Don't snoop through my stuffs again" I managed to say without stuttering and rushed into the bathroom.

I heard his chuckle again and fuck I needed to see them. But hell would I walk out of here and make him see me like this.

I needed to have my bath. I took a sneak peep and he had left already. A breath I didn't know I was holding left my mouth and I rushed into the room, grabbed a towel and back here.

"Took you years" Ryan left out an annoyed huff when I finally came out. I rolled my eyes and ignored him.

"No one cares what you think Ryan" I said as I walked down the stairs and they followed behind.

"Morning Ari, you almost spent all day in your room" My mom let out a commentary as she set out the table.

"Morning mom" I said as I had my seat. Ryan and Aiden had theirs too.

"I'm glad you two are staying for breakfast today" Mom said with a smile.

"Yeah, we have no choice, Ari would have our head on a platter if we refused" Ryan muttered and mom let out a chuckle as she walked back into the kitchen.

"Eat quickly Ari, no nitpicking. We have to hurry" Ryan whispered and I only sent him a glare.

I took a quick glance at Aiden who only ate in silence.

"Are you guys not going to school?" That came from my twin sister, Ariana. She was dressed and ready for school, her hair packed in a ponytail, a pretty pink bow sitting on her hair.

Despite being twin sisters, she was nothing like me. She was like a 100% downloaded version of me. Pretty, popular, intelligent. She was everything.

I bit my lips. I was jealous. I've always been jealous of her. I took a glance at Aiden and just like I thought, his gaze was on her.

He liked her. Anyone could see that. She was the perfect version and I was just a nobody. Being an omega didn't stop her from having it all, in fact she relished in it. She wasn't embarrassed about it and would always clap back at anyone who tried to shame her for it.

"We are. We're just waiting for your cute little sister to stop being a slow poke" I snapped my head to Ryan.

"I'm not a slow poke, and I'm not her little sister.." I muttered cutting slowly on my food.

"We're twins" I said and I heard Ariana's chuckle.

"You're so cute" She said, patting my head slowly while I stylishly moved away from her. Aiden now had his gaze on me. Why? Why was he staring at me now?

Oh, he wasn't. He was staring at Ariana.

"Alright mom, I'm out" Ariana barely spared Aiden a glance. And sincerely that was the only thing that kept me going. Secretly hoping in the pit of my heart that maybe I had a chance with Aiden even if he had eyes on my twin sister instead.

"We're late" Ryan said like he was frustrated.

"Definitely not my fault" I shrugged as I got out of the car, strapping my bag to my back. He pinned me with a glare. "Yeah, definitely not" He mocked and I chuckled at his impersonation.

"We're late" Aiden said again as he took a glance at his watch.

"Yeah thanks, we didn't get that" I said in a mocking tone.

"I said we're late Ari" Aiden said again, and I looked forward to see what he was pointing at. Shit. We were late.

Other students were laid out in the windy cold, hands raised as the disciplinary team disciplined them.

Did I mention how cold this town was? It isn't called ColdTown for no reason. Couldn't believe we were about to kneel here out in the cold for thirty minutes straight.

"Well, we better brace up" That was Ryan as he walked away towards the school gate.

"Pffts" That was Aiden. I grunted before dragging my legs towards the gate.

"Ooh, here comes the alpha prince and his minions" Aaron mocked. Aaron was a member of the disciplinary team and our class mate who openly hates Aiden, and he's also Aiden's cousin.

Aaron's dad was supposed to be the Alpha of our pack, as he was the first son but was deemed unfit and claimed to be weak and Aiden's dad had to become the Alpha, and Aaron's had a grudge against Aiden since then.

Truth be told, everyone knew Aaron's dad couldn't be the Alpha of our pack, he was weak, he was the weakest of his five brothers and he had comfortably given down the post to his brother. But I think his sons couldn't forgive him for that when they found out the truth.

Aiden ignored Aaron like usual and slung his bag to the floor then knelt beside Ryan who had already gotten into position, the look on his face not so friendly as he was practically glaring at Aaron.

Alright, this is my fault, isn't it? I bit my lips slowly before also kneeling beside Aiden.

Aaron smirked proudly as he relished in seeing us suffer.

Aiden's eyes suddenly snapped to me. "Can you handle it?" He whispered and I turned to him annoyed.

"What? You think I'm too weak to handle a little bit of cold?" I said, glaring at him. He only raised his left brow further. I sighed and looked away.

"Yeah, I'll be fine" I said, annoyed. I don't like being weak, but I couldn't help, I was an omega, and we were naturally weak.

And yeah Aiden was right, I can't handle being out in this much cold but I wasn't going to back out like a loser. I hate him seeing me as weak. I can be strong too, just like Ariana.

I was going to prove him wrong. I pressed my lips against each other, determined.

Five minutes later, I was shivering but no, I was going to hold it in. I won't back.. down... My lips were trembling, the harsh wind blew my hair, and blew harshly around my skin, sending shivers to my skin.

Fuck, I was going to die.

I felt my eyes closing, I was going to lose consciousness. I.. will.. pass.. I.. needed.. to leave.

I turned slowly, shivering, to Aiden and he had his eyes on me. He had been gazing at me all through, and never looked away once.

"Will you listen to me now, Ari?" He asked, his face expressionless and his eyes dimmed.

I shook my head slowly. "I'm.. fin..." Then my eyes shut and I slumped on his shoulders.
