Alpha Hayley''s Destined Mate


    Chapter 13 A Little More Wary of Him


    Hayley''s POV


    Finished


    Our school had a walk-in ss system, so I''d picked courses that genuinely interested me. The ssmates.


    in each ss came from various ranks, including Betas and Omegas.


    Since most of them didn''t know me, even the Betas didn''t make a fuss about my Omega status.


    Of course, it was partly because I already dealt firmly with Annalise and her friends before.


    I''d been enjoying my sses a lot.


    However, I didn''t expect my good mood to be interrupted so soon.


    For some reason, Henry ended up in all the same sses as me this semester.


    No matter where I went, he seemed to follow me around like a persistent shadow, which was incredibly frustrating.


    In calculus ss, as soon as I took my seat, Henry came in and plopped down right next to me.


    Immediately, I heard the girls around us eximing excitedly.


    "Wow, isn''t this Henry, the youngest heir of the Alpha of our Midnight Pack?"


    “That''s right! Not only is he of high status, but he''s also good-looking!"


    Even Eloise Scott, the cheerleader and campus star, was gazing at him with starry eyes.


    I gave him a disdainful nce and decided not to pay him any more attention. He had nothing good but


    appearance.


    But he disturbed me.


    “Hayley, are you pretending not to know me?” Henry deliberately called out loudly with a smirk.


    I fidgeted with my pen and paper, feeling annoyed.


    "Hey, Hayley! Are you mute?" He seemed irritated that wasn''t responding.


    From then on, I couldn''t catch a break.


    “Hey, can you even understand what the teacher is saying?"


    "Hayley, speak to me!"


    No matter how he provoked me, I kept ignoring him, which only seemed to make him angrier..


    Until a tennis ss, the tennis coach announced, "The new tennis tournament is open for registration. Besides the school team''s professional yers, anyone with private coaching can also join the team.”


    Upon hearing that, Henry immediately asked me, "Hay ry, how good are you at tennis?"

    “Really?” Henry rolled his eyes. I knew he was up to something again.


    Suddenly, he loudly proimed, "Sir, Hayley wants to join the tournament!"


    Finished


    Immediately, some girls who were close to him began mocking me.


    “Her? A low-ranking Omega from the remote Shadow Pack? Has she even yed tennis before?” "Exactly! Thispetition features top yers from the whole state. She must have overestimated herself!" Hearing theirments, the coach tactfully asked me, "Are you sure you want to join the team? The training is intense, and our team is made up of at least Betas or higher. Are you sure you want to take part?”


    I felt their disdain. Originally, I didn''t want to join. Not because my skills werecking-quite the opposite. I had trained with tennis professionals since childhood and had won several state championships in the Shadow Pack. As an Alpha, my physical abilities were exceptional.


    I hadn''t wanted to draw attention to myself, but seeing their dismissive attitudes stirred mypetitive spirit. "Sure, I''ll take part!"


    Amidst their shocked and disdainful gazes, I made my decision clear.


    At that moment, my phone vibrated in my pocket. I stepped away from the crowd to take the call.


    “Alpha, I heard you''ll participate in the tennis tournament. Is that true?" It was my Beta, Thomas. The news had spread so quickly.


    I had just signed up, and now everyone knew about it. It was probably Henry who spread the news.


    Thomas asked, “Alpha, why are you joining the tournament? You don''t need to rely on tennis results for a top university. You''ve already won multiple state championships. The pre-match training is tough, and you''ve got awards in racing, tennis, and math.”


    I had nned to stay low-key in the Midnight Pack this year, but Henry''s actions had stirred things up. I helplessly said, "It''s hard to exin. But there is something else I want to tell you about."


    "What''s it?" Thomas asked eagerly.


    "I noticed my photo in Benjamin''s study yesterday. Is he trying to find out more about me?” Benjamin seemed more challenging to deal with than his siblings making me a little more wary of him.
