Chapter 1
I wonder what he would think now if he saw his sister acting like a bitch.
Probably nothing.
He acted like nothing had happened that night, by the lake, but it is, and he knows it, like I know that too.
I guess he would thank her, for acting toward me the way she is.
Ugh, Agatha has always been like a nice person, but now, since her brother has gone to a higher school to take over his father’s role as Alpha, she is impossible, and it has lasted for 2 years now.
Especially for me.
I don’t have more nerves or strength for anything, I mean, Alpha Tod is a good man, but he doesn’t know all that his wife or daughter does, especially when omegas are involved.
I wasn’t always an omega, no.
My parents were the main warriors in the Shadow Creek pack, but they died when the cruelest rogues Alpha attacked us, and I was only 14.
I said to myself, that I would not fight, but I trained secretly when no one was around.
So, Luna Mary decided that I should be degraded into an omega, and I bet Agatha had everything to do with it.
Alpha Tod couldn’t refuse anything from his Luna, or daughter, and now I’m a servant in the kitchen, nice work though, a humiliation in every step, not from others, just from her, although, once, we were good friends...
I decided to finish high school and go to college.
I had enough savings from my parents, which will help me at the beginning until I find a part-time job, to pay my rent and food, while I’m there.
No way I’m going to stay here and be Agatha’s target, no way.
Also, Drake is coming back, to take Alpha’s role from his father, and that is something I don’t want to see, or feel.
I hated him.
He humiliated me, and broke me at that point I felt useless, and now, when I’m turning 18 in a month, I will find a mate, my mate, which is something I don’t want.
I could hear my wolf inside me sometimes, talking to me and whining, yes, Tess was sometimes annoying, but I still haven’t transformed.
I don’t want to, I guess, or I just can’t, I don’t get why, though.
I guess I should be a black wolf like my parents were, but I don’t care, I’ll go to the human world and stay there, being in a pack and a werewolf doesn’t interest me, not now, or ever, thanking Richardson’s family.
I had enough bruises and shit from her, not that I couldn’t defend myself, I could, that was the problem, but she was Alpha’s daughter, and I could get killed if I harm her.
And Drake...
Shit!
I was 16 when that happened.
Losing my family and being degraded into an omega, hurt me more than I could imagine.
Omegas were always treated well here, at the pack, but never got the chance to succeed, never, even though few could, but they were just servants for all that been needed.
Now, I was one of them, working in my old jeans and T-shirts, and saving my wardrobe for school.
I was humiliated in every way that I could, not knowing why everything had changed, that broke me, but I never showed that.
I guess I was so proud, or it was in my blood...
That’s why I never imagined that He would look at me the way he did, although he wasn’t drunk...
But, I couldn’t tell, what could I know then about anything?
If there was someone to talk to me then, besides burning my parents, saying their sympathy, and continuing with their lives, as if I wasn’t important anymore.
I was lost, broken, and sad to the point I couldn’t think, just do things as a robot.
That same night he changed me even more.
I felt worthless after, not knowing why he avoided me, or my, until then, my best friend ignored me, becoming rude to me, and humiliating me, in every way.
Maybe he told her, or she was just embarrassed because I wasn’t a warrior as my parents were, but just a simple omega now.
It was his 18th birthday and I was serving them, as usual, that was a part of my job, together with cleaning and cooking, and all other hard work besides that, but I was okay with it.
I knew that one day things would change, and the fact gave myself to him, that night, made my decision firmer.
To leave.
Because I was broken inside.
When I finally finished my work, I went outside, near the fountain in the garden, to get some fresh air and clear my mind.
There was peace and no one could see me or disturb me, or so I thought.
He was standing there, just like he was waiting for me to come, which was scary.
When I saw him, I took a step back, hoping that he didn’t see me, until I heard his firm and deep voice.
“Stop right there, Lotta!”
Damn it!
His voice made my skin crawl, and my legs just stopped listening to me.
He was an Alpha, my future Alpha, and his voice was my command, but still...
I had never had that feeling before, especially when I heard him saying my name.
I was weak as never before, and that hadn’t happened to me ever, which made me feel strange.
Yes, he was hot, and a dream, for most of the girls in the pack, but not for me.
He was tall, and muscular, with skin that was made darker from the sun, which made his black eyes darker, just like his messy hair was.
“Are you disobey your future Alpha?” He asked, with a mocking tone in his voice.
“Come here”, his voice was softer, but I was angry about his behavior toward me.
He wasn’t still my Alpha and he won’t be at least a few years, but that’s not why I didn’t run away.
I was an omega, and the second thing was that I was feeling strange.
His golden eyes were looking at me like I was his prey and I was shaking while coming near to him.
“With all due respect Drake, you are not my Alpha, still”, I tried to keep my voice firm, even though I knew that, after this, the dungeon probably waiting for me, but, I was stubborn, and couldn’t take this tone of voice from no one, without a reason, I was a warrior’s child.
