Ugly Duckling just became the Hot Player by Jennifer Trevino (the alpha prince and his bride full story free txt) 📕

“I love you Penny,” the boy declared with a weak voice, his hands trembling at his sides as he waited for her reply. Penelope was the cutest girl in school, with long golden waves that reached her back and light blue sapphire eyes that seemed to sparkle endlessly. Every male in the campus had a crush on her and she didn’t much as glance in interest at the poor souls.

                “Hmn?” She raised her perfect eyebrow and rolled her eyes at his nervous state. “Look here fatso,” she began with irritation laced in her tone. “There is no way in hell a guy like you can ever be with me, you get it? What is the point in confessing to a girl like me when you already know I’m going to reject you?” Her words were so shocking to his ears that he stood frozen as a plank; his eyes widened and mouth agape.

                “Is that so…” his voice faltered as he struggled to grasp the rejection, it felt as if a boulder had descended over him rendering him from speech and movement. He knew that she wouldn’t like him…yet there was that small hope that had flourished the first time she helped him during class. Liam had ever since gazed at her in a new fluorescent light, he noticed her expressions and her gentle hand that was always helping others.

                Even now it was difficult for him to take in this persona that he had never witnessed before; she wasn’t the girl he had harbored a crush on for the past few months…no he didn’t know who this rude girl was.

                Without sparing her another glance, frightened of the enraged expression on her face he turned away and did the only thing he could do…he ran. For the first time he had skipped school and had taken shelter in a tall hill that let him see the sea in its brilliance.

                With his arms on his knees and his head raised up he cried a million of tears until his cheeks were dry from them. He would like to say that wasn’t his first love, but it was and he wasn’t too keen on falling for any girl from fear of being rejected like today.

                If only he was like his brother who had all the women fawning over him and the men look up to him for his abilities in the football team. But he wasn’t like his brother; he was the black sheep in his family and will forever be only that.

                As he stood up on his aching legs he decided to head back home, the sun had been swallowed whole by the sea and the dark sky sent a chill over him. He pushed the thick glasses back over his nose, and crossed his arms over his chest.

                Along the way to his house Alice had run up to him with a worried look crossing her smooth features, she had sweat underling her forehead and was breathing heavily. “Liam, I finally found you,” she let a breath of relief and he blinked in confusion.

                “You were looking for me?” Liam gasped his cheeks blushing at the nice friend he had. She nodded her head her ponytails swaying as she did so, he looked more closely at Alice. And saw the way her cheeks were flamed probably from all the running she did.

                “You weren’t at school or at your house so David and I decided to look for you. Liam you really made us worried,” she scolded in that motherly tone, he was grateful for her concern but he didn’t feel like smiling at her tone.

                “Sorry,” he mumbled under his breath, his head bent low as the memories flashed through his mind. Somehow instead he thought of his deceased parents and wondered why he was so unlucky to lose them and get broken hearted when he was already weak.

                Alice noticed the shaking and her shoulders sank for her poor friend who always seemed to be suffering. She had heard about the rejection but hadn’t thought it would be that bad. Now she wanted nothing more than take all his pain away, after all he is more than a neighbor. He was her best friend, the one who understood her best.

                “It’s alright Liam,” she reassured as she patted his shoulder awkwardly. She hadn’t known of his dark wishes and desires, the ones that included making him disappear from this cruel world.

                He vowed that day that he would eliminate his worthless self, and change into someone who didn’t take pity and bullying. Liam was going to change and he was going to be somebody everybody can be jealous of, have all the girls at his feet. Yes, he will become just like his brother.

  Liam slouched on his sofa, his head hanging upside down as he tried to concentrate on the drama he was watching. But his mind kept on wandering back to the rejection he had gotten yesterday, causing a slight pain to form on his chest.

            His older brother, David, came in with his hair sticking in odd directions his chest exposed showing defined abs, and his pants hanging dangerously low. How is it that his brother can make even his worst days look attractive and cool?

            “Yo, what’s up with that pained expression on your face dweeb?” David asked as he raked a hand through his tangled black coal hair. He took a seat next to Liam, and got the remote control changing it from Food Network to the Sports Channel; he increased the volume on the TV and yawned.

            “Big Brother…” he started trying to prepare himself, “can I ask you for a huge favor?”

            “Depends, what’s this favor you want from me? If its money than that’s a no, because you know we have to save on the money our parents left behind,” David leaned his back against the sofa and smirked when the scores appeared on the screen.

            “No, I want you to teach me how to be a player just like you. Please can’t you make me handsome?” Liam begged his eyes sparkling in hope, if there was someone that could help him change it was his brother, the bad boy himself.   

            David glanced at his pleading brother, his eye twitching in irritation at the thought of wasting his time on something as changing his ugly duckling into a swan…wait a minute is it swan or cob? He shook his head and thought for a moment considering the idea and it appealed to him, that this could really be amusing.

            “Sure thing, I’ll make you the most irresistible guy that anyone has seen. You will have all the ladies in the palm of your hands, and be the star in your school,” David smirked and quickly stood up. He looked down at Liam his eyes shining in intent and for a second poor Liam was frightened of the serious expression his brother bared.

            After that agreement Liam’s older brother began to show him all the work out moves to get the body women craved for, day after day Liam sweated all the body fat he had since a child and he was put into a strict diet. David wouldn’t even let him come within a meter of junk food, or anything that would cause him to get fatter. David even resorted into moving to another district as far away from their home town and give Liam secret training.

            Liam would struggle to keep up and let his brother’s words burned into his head, his revenge growing deeper as his brother inflicted him with ways to become more attractive. He had asked to be just like his brother and he was going to put up with everything he got. He wanted to see everyone’s faces as they gazed at the new him, and see Penelope’s shocked face as she took his body.

            In only two years Liam achieved the results he craved for, now he wasn’t the chubby oily skinned boy that coward away from everyone and was filled with dark negative thoughts that roamed into the deep parts of his soul. No now he was the man that made people pause and stare at him with dazed expressions. He was everything he wished to be when he was a boy, just like his brother.

            David had moved him back to their old home that had welcomed him back with wide arms, and he was enrolled in Austin High School, where everyone from his middle school were sure to be.

            Just as he had thought everyone was looking at him with wide eyes and lustful gazes that sent a shiver up his spine. He walked with a straight back and his head held up, no longer was he a geek, but a hot player that was going to make sure to capture every girl’s heart.

            His luscious lips tugged upward and he smirked, that day he made another promise. To make every girl fall in love with him, and then shatter their hearts into a million shards. That was the day the real Liam was consumed by popularity and desires.

        While the small girl who waited for his return had grown up to be a tomboyish girl with so much insecurities, and her flourished love had broken when she never heard about the boy she had befriended since childhood. 

        Gone were the memories that Alice had treasured with Liam, and now she stopped searching for the friend that had abandoned her for his dream. She was tired of waiting for someone who wouldn't even speak to her anymore, and try to make an effort to keep their friendship. 

        Her lips fell downward in sorrow as she walked through the doors of the beginning of her freshmen year, everyone glancing at the new sexy jock that was sure to be the most popular guy in the whole school. No she was distracted about thinking about that small, chubby, flustered boy she had fallen in love with. 

  Liam felt sweat dribble off his forehead as he ran the last lap for today on the football team, his legs moving with lighting speed as he willed himself to finish
