    AMELIA’S PO.V


    I woke up feeling better and more rested than I have in a very long time. I freshened. up in the


    bathroom and I exited the room to find ra standing in my room. She led me to her room and to


    her wide closet so I could pick an outfit for myself. I teared up at the fact that she gave me a choice


    which is something I haven’t had in a very long time.


    I chose a simple blue floral dress that flowed to my mid thighs. It had thick straps tied into bows and


    although it was a bit free on my b*dy, it still showed off the curve of my hips. especially because the


    torso had a corset like look and really cinched my waist in.


    “This dress looks better on you than it ever has on me,” ra mused as she took me in. “You look


    absolutely beautiful.”


    My cheeks warmed at thement and I found it hard to look her in the eye. The only person who


    had ever called me beautiful was ke and I always thought he was lying but to hear someone else


    say it brought a warm feeling into my chest and a slight flutter in my stomach.


    “Thank you,” I managed out softly. “I promised to pay you back for all of this as soon as I am able to


    find a part time job.”


    “You don’t have to pay me back,” she waved me off. “Consider it as a gift from me to you. It has


    never looked this good on me so you can have it free of charge. I would be doing a disservice if I


    didn’t give it to you.”


    “I really appreciate it.” I told her and she gave me a warm smile.


    She may not want payment for this dress but I will find a way to pay her back for her kindness


    towards me. Kindness is a luxury and a rare feeling that I hardly ever experienced and here she is


    giving it all to me. She has to be a special breed of person to be so kind hearted and warm to me- a


    stranger.


    “You might want some shoes with that dress,” she said and suddenly she was rummaging through


    her closet before she pulled out a pair of sneakers and handed them to me. “I think we wear the


    same size shoes and I rarely wear shoes so you can have these.”

    “It’s alright, I can just wear mine.”

    “But they’re d*rty,” she eximed and I opened my mouth toin but she shoved the shoes


    into my arms. “Just take these; they will look perfect with the dress.”


    I hesitated but I nodded. I made a mental note to pay her back for the shoes even if she wouldn’t


    collect payment for the dress. They looked expensive and they were also veryfortable too. I


    have to admit that they do look really nice with the dress.


    “We should go out for breakfast,” ra said suddenly snapping me out of my thoughts. “Grandma


    hates it when breakfast gets cold.”


    I allowed her walk in front of me as we made our way to the living room. I saw Devin on the rocking


    chair with a newspaper in his hand while Pam was setting tes on the dining table. I was about


    to say hi to them when I noticed another person in the room.


    He was seated at the dining table helping Pam out and from his features; I knew he had to be


    rted to ra. They have the same color hair and eyes although he looks more formidable and


    scary while ra is all soft edges and silk.


    Pam was the first to notice me and she beamed wide. “I hope you slept well Amelia.”


    The guy’s eyes snapped up to mine and I had to look away. He wasn’t as terrifying as Kaden but he


    still put my on edge. It wasn’t in a bad way but he just exuded a sense of power and authority and I


    knew he would have to be one of the high ranking officials in the pack.


    My steps faltered but ra wrapped a soft hand around my wrist and pulled me over towards the


    dining table. She sat right next to me so I wouldn’t be too ufortable and Pam ced a stack


    of pancakes and bacon in front of me. I was shocked that she served me before herself seeing as I


    was the guest but I noticed that she made sure everyone had gotten food, even Devin, before she


    even took out a te for herself.


    “Thank you,” I whispered to her but she waved me off as if it wasn’t such a big deal.


    I couldn’t help but notice that the male had his eyes on me. It wasn’t in an ufortable manner, it


    was more like he was assessing me and trying to figure me out. I fought the urge to squirm in my


    seat.


    “Amelia, this is my brother Caleb,” ra said as if she noticed my difort and unease.

    “He wasn’t herest night when you arrived because he is the Beta. He usually works veryte so


    the only time you might see him would probably be during breakfast.”

    I lifted my eyes to see him sporting a soft smile on his face which I quickly returned. When he


    smiled, he didn’t look as terrifying as he did at first and he actually looked more like a normal person


    and not like the Beta that ra says he is.


    A phone rang and Pam excused herself to answer it. I noticed that sometime while we were


    eating, Devin had managed to leave without anyone noticing. It was just ra, Caleb and I and I


    couldn’t help but feel a little bit ufortable.


    “So Amelia,” Caleb began as he sipped quietly on a mug of tea. “I know how you arrived at the pack


    already but do you know why you were targeted and chased by those rogues?”


    I knew that someone was going to ask that question sooner orter. I expected it to be Kaden but


    knowing that Caleb is the beta, it makes a little sense for him to also be curious. He probably wants


    to make sure that I am not going to be a liability to the pack.


    It hurt to think about the situations that brought me to the pack. Especially now that I knew who was


    behind it all and I didn’t want to answer the question but I also knew it would be disrespectful


    considering how weing this pack has been to me. They could have thrown me out on my ass


    but instead they chose to wee me with open arms and the least I can give them is an


    exnation as to what happened.


    “I don’t know why they wanted me dead,” I admitted. “I had just been rejected by my boyfriend and


    my father suggested that I go to another pack for my university. I was on my way there when I


    noticed that I was being followed and I made a split second decision toe here instead of going


    where I was sent.”


    I smiled ruefully. “Maybe they wanted to get rid of me so my boyfriend could be happily mated with


    my sister.”


    “Why did your boyfriend reject you?”


    my


    I was expecting the question but it still didn’t dull the ache in my chest. I knew what the answer was


    but I was hesitant to speak. I couldn’t help but think about whether predicament will make them


    think any less of me. Would it change everything? Would I be turned into a ve here like I was at


    home?

    I could make up a lie and tell him or I could simply say that I don’t know but he is the Beta. I am


    sure he has vast resources that I cannot even begin to imagine. He will find out sooner orter and I


    would rather he finds out from me than he finds out from someone else.


    “I don’t think I have a wolf,” I admitted and I felt silence fall around the entire room. “He wanted to


    be Alpha and he knew he couldn’t get that with me because I haven’t gotten my wolf form yet so he


    went for my sister.“”


    I could tell that he was surprised, it was written all over his face and I expected him to call me


    names or call me a runt. I was even prepared for them to throw me out of their house and tell me


    that I didn’t deserve to be there. I had braced myself for every possible worst case scenario but I


    hadn’t braced myself for the next words that came out of his mouth.


    “It doesn’t matter what your status a he said softly. “All your misfortunes ended the moment you


    stepped onto our borders. It is a pleasure to have you with us Amelia.”


    I stared at him jaw cked wondering if I had heard correctly. I turned to ra and she had a soft


    smile on her face. She reached for my hand and squeezed it softly in hers as she threaded our


    fingers together.


    “You’re one of us now,” she told me with a smile. “You have nothing to worry about.”


    After breakfast, I decided to retire to the guest room. I wanted to be alone to think about what had


    just happened and I was lost in thought when I heard a knock on my door. I assumed it would be


    ra so I made a nonmittal sound to alert her that she coulde in. I up when I noticed the


    multitude of people walking into my room holding shopping bags in their hands.


    I stood to my feet and watched wide eyed as not less than ten different people walked in holding


    bags from different stores. I was able to catch a few names and I knew those clothes cost nothing


    less than thousands of dors. I pped my hand over my mouth as I took in


    the scene.


    “This has to be a mistake,” I said but none of them paid me any heed as they started cing the


    bags in front of my closet. “I didn’t order these and no one would waste so much money on me. I


    think you’re in the wrong room, ra’s is down the hall.“”


    “They’re not for me silly,” ra teased as she walked into the room.

    She was barefooted again and she practically glided across the floors as she took a seat on my


    bed. The people who brought the clothes exited just as quickly as they came and shut the door


    behind us leaving us inplete silence.


    I nced at ra with a puzzled expression and she simply gestured to the bags on the floor. I


    reached into one and pulled out a pair of jeans. I almost threw up when I saw the price tag but I


    chose to ignore it and looked at the size. I was shocked to find that it was perfectly my size. I


    thought it was a fluke and dipped my hand into four more bags only to realize that every single thing


    was my size even down to the underwear and shoes.


    “Who would do this for me?” I asked incredulously. “I’m just a stranger; I would never be able to pay


    you back for all of this. I can’t take all of this, it is too much.”


    “It is what we do for all our new members,” ra said dismissively and my eyes widened.


    I couldn’t believe my ears. I have never received this many clothes from my father in my life and


    here I am receiving them in the most feared pack in the world simply because I am a new member. I


    had to pinch myself to make sure I wasn’t hallucinating and I turned to ra only to see her staring


    at me with slight amusement ying on her l*ps.


    “We have to register you today,” she told me, “But you’re going to do it in your new clothes. Are you


    ready?”


    I nodded and with her help I was able to pick a cute outfit of jeans and a floral wrap top. Once I was


    dressed, she sat me down and did some light make up on me. It felt good to have someone dote on


    me for once and when she was done, she turned the chair around so I could look at myself in the


    mirror.


    I almost couldn’t recognize the girl staring back at me and it took all my willpower to not reach up


    and touch my face to make sure I was the one. I looked beautiful. I heard ra murmur some


    words under her breath but I didn’t quite catch them so I turned to her.


    “Did you say something?” I asked but she shook her head with a small smile ying on her l*ps.
