Hailey's POV

"Hailey!" I heard the boys yelling my name from afar. I was lounging on a chair, getting a tan, and sipp "Hailey!" I heard them yell again. I sighed.

"Over here," I mutter barely audibly, but I know they heard me. They have very impressive hearing abil "Hey boys, want some wine?" I asked coquettishly.

"Was it you?" Julian asked without beating around the bush.

"What are you talking about?" I asked, completely oblivious to what he was talking about.

"Did you write that article about Emma?" Philip asked impatiently. Alexander sat in a chair in front of "What article?" I reply, sipping my wine and adjusting my sunglasses properly on my eyes.

They all glared at me furiously.

"Ohh that article? The one on the school website?" I asked, dropping my glass.

"What? It's not like it's a lie, right? Everything is entirely true. Her parents are dishonest people, just l

"Hailey! Julian screamed, startling me.

"Did you post that or not?" he growled.

glass of wine leisurely.

nd can hear from far distances when they want to. Soon enough, they all appeared before me.

tching my expressions closely.

She's from a family of shrewd people. I told you, you were making a big mistake...,"

"You are yelling at me because of that girl? Come on guys, we've known each other since we learned how to speak, and you are just going to throw all that away just because of her?" I asked, feeling hurt, and my eyes welled up with tears. "We just want to know whether you wrote it or not," Philip said.

"Well, I didn't okay. I have much more important things to do than sit back and write an article," I scre

back at Julian.

"Give me your phone," Alexander muttered, stretching his hand.

"You don't believe me? You think I will lie over something like this?" I mutter unbelievably.

They stared at me, not saying anything and I scoffed in disbelief.

"It's over there, you can search for whatever you want," I pointed towards the chair where my clothes caned back on my chair and sipped my wine. Alexander took my phone and scrolled through it for a while. He looks up and nods at the boys, dropping back my phone.

"See anything?" I asked sarcastically. "I can't believe this, it has gotten to the point where you now doubt me?" I asked, starting to tear up.

"But if you did not do it, then who did?" Philip asked.

"How the hell am I supposed to know that? Newsflash, we are not the only one who hates your little mate. Everyone at school hates her guts. One of her many enemies must have done it," I state matter-of-factly.

"We don't hate her Hailey, not anymore," Julian said, taking a seat next to Alexander.

"Really? All of a sudden? Julian, you are saying this? Did you forget the fun times when we used to torment her together? Have you forgotten all those times?" I inquire, trying to rekindle their memories and bring them back to their senses.

"That was when we were still foolish, we've realized our mistakes now, and we are going to make everything right," Philip said determined.

No way, not when I'm here. That is never going to happen as long as I live.

"Don't you care about what your pack members think? They don't want someone like her as their Luna. Every single person in this pack can see right through her, why can't you boys?" I reply persuasively.

"The pack members can think whatever they want. We want Emma and that's final, nothing and no one can change our minds. Besides, when they get to know her like us, they will get to like her. Her personality has been gravely misunderstood," Alexander deadpans. I stare at him dumbstruck. I think this is the longest I have heard him defend someone.

I clench my fists beside me angrily. What do they see in that fat pig anyway? I had dressed really tempting today in my flimsy swimsuit but all they've been talking about since they arrived is about that b***h.

"Where are you going?" I asked Alexander, who was walking towards the pack house.

"To my room," he replied curtly without stopping or looking back. Philip and Julian stood up and were also about to leave.

"Where do you think you are going?" I nervously asked Julian, grabbing his arm.

"To my room," he also replied.

"You can't leave, keep me company. I am lonely," I pout, caressing his arm flirtatiously.

He just sighed, removed my hand from his, and walked away.

I threw my glass of wine on the floor in anger. I picked up my phone and dialed a number.

"Did you do exactly as I said?" I asked immediately after the person picked up.

"Yes, I did," the person replied.

"I hope you didn't leave any traces?" I inquired.

"I did everything as you asked, you don't have to worry,"

I hung up the call and deleted the number from my call log.

Did they really think that I would do something like that on my phone? I am way smarter than that. I knew the first thing Alexander would do was go through my phone and search for traces. I won't allow them to make that girl Luna. I will do everything I can to stop that from ever happening. I will make her life miserable as long as she lives. I sighed, contented with the outcome of my plan. I basked in the sun for a while before heading inside.

I bumped into Emma, who was also just returning. I motioned for her to keep quiet and dragged her by her arm toward the laundry room.

"Where the hell do you think you are coming from?" I utter my voice low, not wanting the boys to hear me.

"I am coming back from...,"

"Shut up," I growled, still holding onto her arm. "You think because the boys paid you a little attention, you can come home whenever you want? Sorry to burst your bubble, but this is all just our little plan, the plan I suggested, so you better not let that get into your little head," I said, twisting her arm as my nails dug into her flesh. She winced in pain, but she knew better than to protest.

"Emma? Is that you?" Julian asked, hurrying towards the laundry room. I gave her a warning glare not to dare say anything, and she nodded fearfully.

Julian rushed in and so did Alexander and Philip. They glanced at me, but I just forced a smile at them.

"Emma, where have you been? We've been so worried, are you okay?" Julian fussed, holding her arm and searching if there was any sign of injury on her body.

I fumed in anger and jealousy. They didn't even pay me any attention, but immediately ran toward that good-for-nothing girl.

"I'm fine," she replies, glancing at me. I shot her a deadly glare, and she quickly looked away.

"Have you eaten? Want us to make your food?" Philip asked in a concerned tone.

I stared at them, wondering if these were the same boys that I grew up with.

"I don't want your food, I already ate," she replies, squirming uncomfortably.

"But...," Julian started to protest.

"I'm exhausted, I just want to sleep," she muttered. I glared at her, wishing I could just slap her senseless over that statement. The nerve of the b***h.

"Sure, you must be tired after everything that happened today, come with us, you can sleep in our room," Julian said with a smile.

My jaw dropped at his behavior. They never let anyone sleep in their room, not even me whom they've known for years. My chest panged with complete hatred.

"I want to sleep in my room," she replied and hurriedly walked out. I quickly stepped in front of the boys.

"That girl does not deserve to stay with you, she's so rude, what do you see in her?" I asked them.

"We are not angry over what she does or says and when you replace your own mate, you will understand how we feel," Philip replies.

M...mate? No. I don't want to replace any mate. The only people I truly want as my mate are the boys, and they are going to have to dump that girl and be with me. They will make me Luna. I must lead this pack, either by hook or by crook.

"Have a goodnight's rest, Hailey," Julian said, and they all walked towards their room. I hurried after them, but they got into their rooms and shut the door in my face.

I've never been so blatantly humiliated. And I am now only because of her. She is so going to pay for this. I will make sure to keep creating misunderstandings between them until the boys dump her for me. I will never jeopardize my lifelong dream for anyone.
