03: Shocking news


    Sophia


    Sometimes I wonder how I had lived through the cruelty of the pack. A normal werewolf who hasn''t


    gotten a wolf would have died already from the pains they had to endure but mine was different.


    Somehow, I was able to get out of it though with scars that not only marred my body but also my


    soul.


    Pains were inflicted on me because I made even the slightest mistake. None of the other omegas


    suffered as much as I did. Mine was worse. Laying on my bed each night, I often envisioned how it


    would be to just float away, and let all the pains, and memories that I have repressed over the years


    go away.


    "Another serving," The head maid shouted from the dining room at me. None of the other omegas


    made a move to get it so I stood up from the stool I had been sitting on and walked to the dining


    room.


    I walked into the dining room with a tray of toast bread and scrambled eggs trying to avoid my gaze


    from wandering to the head of the table where Dianne was seated on Alexander''s thighs, feeding


    him through her mouth.


    I served the other pack members and walked into the kitchen but was stopped.


    "Bring us some more scrambled eggs. These ones here are bad," Dianne said to me and my


    shoulders stiffened. I knew the eggs weren''t bad but she just wanted to rub her rtionship with


    Alexander in my face.


    If she aimed to get me more broken, then she achieved it because my heart hurt terribly from the


    scene of Alexander kissing her.


    "Okay ma''am," I swallowed hard and walked into the kitchen after my eyes shed with Alexander.


    There was no emotion on his face. He masks it expertly.


    Each day since the incident with Dianne, I havee to despise Alexander more often for what he


    did to me. Yet, I could not bring myself to ept his rejection. Seeing them together hurt but not as


    much as it did the first few days after the rejection.


    It had been a week since I had the issue with Dianne over challenging her. Although my wounds


    were healed it did nothing to clear away all the hurt and pain. I still felt hurt from the injuries as


    some had notpletely healed up.


    I took the eggs to her andid them on her te. She looked up at me as if I did something wrong.


    "Put them on the te, dummy," she hissed at me andy her hand on Alexander''s chest. My eyes


    lingered on her hand before I did as she asked.


    I looked up only to see Alexander looking at me again. What does he want really? For me to bow to


    him and his barbie doll? I resisted the urge to roll my eyes and walked back into the kitchen to rest


    until the pack members were done with their food so I''ll go clean up.


    I sat by my favorite spot by the window, ignoring the other omegas who were so excited about


    something. I knew it had to do with the ceremony Alexander was hosting tomorrow where he would


    be made the Alpha.


    He had invited people from other packs, Alphas included. I just think it is stupid to invite Alphas to a


    party. Alphas were all egotistical creatures. Always wanting to exert dominance wherever they went.


    I watched from the window, different people pulling up into the pack house, and the gardens were


    being cleaned by some omega boys.


    I stood up from the stool. The kitchen was getting noisy because of the maids'' chatter. I mean,


    getting to see other pack members and meeting new friends were nice. But when ites to us the


    omegas, it meant more work for us all; having many mouths to feed.


    My correct guess would be, the people who will turn up for the ceremony wouldn''t be less than two


    hundred. Imagine having to feed four hundred people in a day.


    I was about to walk to the kitchen''s back door when a guard walked in. I halted in my steps and


    waited for what he had to say.


    He scanned the room until his eyes rested on me. "The Alpha''s son asks for you," he said. I


    frowned at that. He could be mistaken.


    "Are you talking to me?" I asked him and he red at me, not thrilled by being asked a question


    from the ''freak''.


    "Yes, you. And he asks not to keep him waiting," he said to me and walked away.


    The kitchen had gone quiet from the exchange. They were all giving me weird nces but I pushed


    them back. It wasn''t a new thing.


    I headed to Alexander''s room. Along the way, I kept thinking of what could make him see me. He


    never asks for me. If anything, he avoids me. So this was a first.


    This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    I was so nervous. What could he possibly want? I came by the door and knocked twice but there


    was no reply. My hand came up to knock for the third time but Alexander''s voice stopped me.


    "Come in," he said in a surprisingly calm tone. This can''t be good.


    I obeyed and walked into the room. Not like I had a choice. I poked my head in and found him


    seated on the bed, his back to me.


    "Come in," he said again and I walked to the room, closing the door with a click.


    Then, I noticed he had a drink in his right hand. The room became unbearably hot and small with


    him in it. The tension in the room could be cut with a knife.


    "Come over, and sit," he said again. And I thought I was hallucinating.


    "I don''t understand," I said to him with wide eyes, too uncertain to move.


    "Are you deaf?" He turned to face me and I noticed he wasn''t as mad as I thought. I watched as his


    eyes roamed my body. "How are your injuries?" He asked me and I saw regret and pain sh


    through his eyes. But before I couldprehend, it was gone.


    Not wanting to anger him even though I knew he was already getting mad at my presence alone, I


    moved until I was about five feet away from him.


    "I''m fine," I said. Why does he even care? Or was this way of letting me know he had never cared


    about me that''s why he avoided me?


    "I saw how you looked at me this morning. Do you want me?" He stood up and walked towards me.


    I took some steps back.


    "I don''t understand what you mean."


    "Cut the chase, Sophia. I know you want me. Just say it and I will consider making you my


    mistress," he said and continued walking toward me. I stepped back until my back hit the wall where


    I was trapped between him and the wall.


    "That''s not true. I only happened to meet your eyes at that moment," I said in my defense.


    Seriously, what was wrong with him? Did the Alpha position get to his head already? Heughed at


    me as his chest rumbled from the sound making goosebumps rise on my arms.


    "Then why haven''t you epted the rejection if a little part of you doesn''t yearn for me? Admit it,


    Soph," He called me by the name only my parents had even used for me. My breath was knocked


    out of me the next second when he trailed his nose down my neck. I tried to fight off the shiver that


    threatened to ovee me.


    "Don''t fight it. Give in to it. We could be together, you know?" He smirked at me and held my gaze.


    "I was only waiting for the right moment," I said while he began toy little kisses on my neck. My


    hands balled into fists by my side. I was fighting internally with myself. This wasn''t right. He rejected


    me and still wants me. It doesn''t make sense.


    I pushed him off me when his lips reached my chest. The tingles were shooting up my spine. I


    wanted him in me as heat pooled in my lower belly but I couldn''t be weak and also be a fool. I


    looked up to see him ring at me.


    "If I can''t be your Luna, then I''ll never be with you. You rejected me painfully and watched while I


    was beaten for what I knew nothing about."


    "You can''t be my Luna because you are wolfless and also a murderer. Don''t even try to defend


    yourself. You should be grateful I am offering to make you my mistress regardless of your crimes."


    He spat as his eyes zed at me.


    I had hurt his ego, his pride as a man, and an Alpha by rejecting to be with him as a mistress. Never


    will I ever be.


    "Don''t feel pity for me because I don''t need it," I snapped at him and soon realized my mistake. "I


    am needed in the kitchen right now," I said and moved away from him to the door.


    "You are going to regret this," he said to me and waved me off, his back facing me. His shoulders


    were tensed and I saw his hands twitching violently.


    I walked away from the room wondering how bad my life would be now. I just offended the new


    Alpha. There was a lingering promise in his words. He meant everything he said. But before he


    would make my life hell, I must have left the pack already.


    I got to the dining room and met the ce tidied already. So I went to the woods - my favorite spot


    where I usually go to have a break from all the things happening in my pathetic life. Iy on the floor


    and decided to have a quick nap.


    I was awoken by birds and found the night dark already and my blood chilled faster than a frostbite.


    I didn''t join in serving the afternoon meal. I am so dead. I picked up myself and ran to the pack


    house. This would be another reason for the barbie doll, Dianne to get me back to the dungeon.
