CHAPTER 1 - Princess Trouble

EMILLE’S POV

“Where do you think you’re going young lady?” I heard familiar a voice as I tried to sneak away from the meeting.

Yeah, my father was having a meeting with the rest of my siblings and I. I am really bored with these kind of meetings, I didn’t want to stay there so I waslooking for an excuse to leave but I didn’t get one. As soon as I saw that my father was busy talking to my oldest brother, I quickly made it to gluey and he caught me again. I turned around with an innocent smile.

“Nowhere dad. I’m just going to study and finish my homework. I’ve got a pile of work to do.” I lied.

My second older brother Alpha Kane shook his head. “The last time I checked, you were done with school a few years ago. How come you’re talking about homework now?”

Is he stupid or am I the one who doesn’t know what I am doing right now? I still go to college, doesn’t he remember?

“She’s a college student, Kane. How can you forget that?” My oldest brother Alpha Winner said to defend me.

My father sighed, “You shouldn’t be defending her when she’s doing silly things Winner. Your sister is becoming worse everyday.”

He faced me, “I have no idea why you choose to be stubborn when you are a big part of this family. As your father, most times I am ashamed to admit that you are my daughter!”

“Father… that’s enough. You can let her leave and let’s go on with the meeting.” Winner said.

I rolled my eyes and walked out of the meeting room. I’m not even interested in stuff like these. If my mother was alive, then I wouldn’t feel so lonely most of the times. Part of why my dad is mad at me sometimes like I had control over it. My mom died after giving birth to me alone deep in the woods. The strange thing was she was never found, her clothes were found torn and blood stains all over the floor.

Everyone quickly concluded that she must have been eaten by another wild animal since she was human form. I was found crying on the floor and that was it. She was never found and was assumed to be dead some years later. I do not know what my mother was doing alone in the woods by that time but I’m going to find out one day.

My father of course always finds pleasure in trying to blame me non stop for what happened like I still had any control over it. Makes sure to remind me that I am the reason why he won’t be with my mother anymore. That makes him think I am bad luck and sometimes he wishes I was not alive because I disgust him so much. And sometimes he just shows me love like a real father should. So it makes me wonder if he has a personality disorder. Sometimes he is caring and protective of me and other times, he’s just not it.

At least I have him and my older brother who love me. My other brother Kane hates me like hell, he says I took his mother from him and he has a bad childhood because of me. I’m still wondering how any of that is my fault. That could have happened to my mother when he was born. And since it could’ve happened when he was born, maybe my mother would’ve died during his birth and I would never have been born at all.

My father is the Alpha pack leader of the Royal Moon Pack. My pack is one of the biggest and powerful packs after three other packs in this part of the world. I am a werewolf and a very powerful one at that. I am not just a princess but an Alpha wolf. At least, that’s something my father is proud of. Like I said, he always has mood swings when it comes to me.

So I’m the only one that causes trouble for my family at the same time. I was very popular in high school, I changed a lot of schools and beat some people up. Most of them were werewolves and Alphas at that. Now that I’m no longer in high school, I am very popular for my savage lifestyles. I go to a lot of packs to cause trouble. Like I said, I am a very troublesome person and so I was named princess trouble.

On my way out of our house which is the palace or whatever of the Alpha king, I met my cousin Layla. She looked at me disgustingly and I did the same. Just so you know, we don’t like each other. It’s not that I don’t like her, she’s the one who has a problem with me and she won’t dare try any nonsense with me no matter how angry she is. She’s two years older than me and most times wants me to refer to her with the term older sister. Come off your dreams girl, I am not your personal maid and it won’t ever happen.

Her father is my dad’s younger brother and he also lives here with us. Unlike my mom, Layla’s mom is very much alive but divorced her husband for reason best known to her. I heard her mother is a human and that’s why she often got teased a lot. But she earned respect ever since she started living here with her father. Now she feels like she’s a princess and does her best to annoy me. Trust me, I’m not that easy either.

“You’re done with the meeting or you ran away?” She asked me folding her arms.

“Do I have to explain everything I do to you now? I wasn’t told you’ve been promoted to the post of a bodyguard. You’re welcome to lick my shoes if you’re that excited.” I replied in a mimicking tone and copying the exact way she folded her arms.

She unfolded her arms and growled angrily, “You are really getting on my nerves you little…”

“Remember, I’m not that kind who will let you go if you break the fine line. Be careful with your choice of words Layla.” I warned her seriously.

“I don’t care what you do Emille or should I say princess trouble? I don’t know how you plan on marrying Alpha Aiden with this sickening attitude of yours!”

“You know, I wouldn’t feel so bad for you if your good character has gotten you anywhere than being lonely. I sincerely hope you find one soon, except you plan to grow old in my father’s house.” I mocked and walked away, I am not nice at all.

Now I know why she’s trying to pick a fight. I could not help but burst into laughter because she’s quite funny. She’s jealous I have a man who I’m going to be with and he’s the Alpha to one of the biggest packs, The BlueMoon pack. He’s my childhood best friend and now we’re engaged to get married in a few days. Of course he’s mine, and every girl is jealous of me.

He’s tall, handsome, intelligent and very strong. We grew up as sweethearts and we love each other very much. Not only that, I believe he’s my mate as I feel the special mate bonding whenever he is around. He feels the same way about me. He’s the only one who can tolerate and make me happy, aside my big brother Winner.

I’ve known him before he was made the leader of his pack when his father passed away. He’s still young and has a lot of responsibilities, I want to be there for him. I know Layla has always wanted to be with him since she saw him. She always wants whatever is associated with me, including Aiden. A lot of people are against this since no one wants to be involved with someone like me.

Who better to marry than someone who already knows all my flaws and loves me the same? I’m going to check on him, this requires me going through all the evil stares at his territory though. Packs in this part of the world usually consists of more than two areas filled with people from the same pack and their leader also lives there. His pack is right next to mine, I’m going to go through the woods though.

I’m thinking of hunting for something and taking it to him. No, I’m not going with any guard or car, my father knows I won’t. I set out with my small sharp dagger in my pocket and went into the direction of the woods. I’m not afraid of going alone even if it’s nighttime.

I continued to walk and used my eyes to search for any possible small animal to hunt. Just then, I saw a deer running away. Perhaps it sniffed my scent and is running from me. I chased after it, it was running very fast and I also ran as fast as I could. Werewolves have great speed too, I almost caught up with it. I threw my dagger at it then it fell down. I stopped running and walked towards it to check on it, luckily I’m close to Aiden’s pack.

I was baffled to see something strange on it. There’s my dagger on one side and an arrow on another side. What the heck? Was it running because it had an arrow in its body? But I didn’t see wrong, it was clearly okay when it was running.

“Why am I thinking too much anyways? It’s mine now.” I said to myself.

I pulled out the arrow and dagger, I suddenly began to sniff an unfamiliar strong scent. It’s coming from… behind me! I turned around unstartled, until I saw his face. He’s so tall and handsome as f**k. His icy eyes stand out that they chase my green eyes away and he has such a sharp jawline, he’s also well built up. He has such a nice brown hair which is well styled, makes me feel like my black hair is useless. Yeah, he’s got a nice definition of a demigod that makes me wanna run. What on earth is he? Who is he? He does smell like a werewolf, I just wonder which pack he’s from and if he doesn’t know who I am.

I moved back, “Who are you supposed to be?”

He didn’t reply as he only stared at me with those icy eyes that can melt anyone. I don’t know what kind of person would not be flustered looking at this man. But I won’t let him see that, I should go back to my tough savage self. No one dares to look at me like that and here he is doing that. Wow. What a daredevil.

“Since you’re not saying anything. I suppose you’re deaf and dumb. Move away, I have to take this to my love.” I shoved him off.

He stared at me with a shocked expression. Okay, what’s with this guy and why is he shocked? I shrugged and moved towards the deer, I suddenly felt his strong and rough hand on my arm. That’s when he spoke up.

“Stop right there. That’s mine.” He said in a very deep voice. Everything about him is masculine though. Then I saw the bow and arrows on him, he shot the deer with the arrow then. Does he think that makes him the owner automatically? What a joke.

“What?” I laughed, “I mean let go off my arm first before I send you to the world beyond.”

He let out a soft chuckle before letting me go. I dusted my arm like it’s stained with dirt.

“I thought you were a stupid dumb ass man. But after this, I’m convinced you are. Don’t think just because you’re huge, I’m going to be intimidated by you. Hell no! This deer is mine. I saw it first, and I’m taking it so f**k off!” I snapped at him. I’m not patient anymore, I wanna kill this guy.
