The Alpha Who Cursed His Mate novel Chapter 6

The bell goes. I'm happy to run home and get away from everyone, especially May and Claire. Then I remember I have dreaded detention.

Returning to my locker, I pack my books on the shelf and take my school bag. Josie runs up to me with her backpack.

"Ready to go home, brother?" she smiles.

"Nope, I have detention… with Nina," 

"Magnus! This is your chance!" she squeals.

"Chance for what?"

"To get on your knees and beg the hottie for forgiveness for being such a dumbass all these years."

"Josie! Not going to happen,"

"But why not? I never understood why you would cut your best friend off like that. You two were so close and did everything together."

"You wouldn't understand, Josie. You're not the one who will be an Alpha one day. I need to be respected, not laughed at."

"I'm your little sister, daughter of an Alpha which means my mate will probably be an Alpha from a different pack, so yeah, I get you to need to be respected just as I do as a potential Luna, but I do not know what that has to do with Nina?"

"Forget it, okay? I'm going to be late for detention. I'll see you at home for dinner."

Flint walks up to us as I'm about to walk away. Josie wraps her arms around Flint and sobs into his chest. Just great. After everything else going on, now Josie is upset with me.

Without greeting Mr Thomson, I enter the science room, place my bag on a table, and sit in silence, avoiding eye contact with Mr Thompson and Nina.

"Late again, Magnus," he huffs with his hands-on hip.

I shrug my shoulders and look away. Nina is sitting four tables away. It's obvious she also isn't happy to be here.

"Well, if you two think you are both going to sit here in silence, then you have another thing coming,"

Nina and I turn our attention back to Mr Thomson.
