Chapter One

Welcome to my life, a life filled with misery and sadness. Today marks five years since my parents were killed by Rogues. However since they've died, my pack and Alpha have blamed me for their deaths. Since I was with them when it happened. Both my parents were warriors, some of the strongest ever known. They were well respected, across all the packs around us. Even though Rogues killed them, everyone hated me.

"Mae, you lazy price of shit, why the hell are you not up yet?" screamed Jason, as he banged on the door to the closet.

I jump up quickly from my makeshift bed, made out of towels, frantically looking around. I look at my clock, 5:30, fuck me I over slept.

I hurriedly grab my apron from a shelf and throw it on tying it. I swing the door open frantically. as the door opens all the way I'm met with a fist across my face.

I yell in pain, grabbing my cheek, I glare at Jason. Jason is the Beta of the Pack. He used to be my best friend.

"Listen here you damn slave" he says grabbing me by hair, I scratch at his arms. "glare at me like that again, I'll have my fucking way with you." he growls at me his green eyes piercing, throwing daggers at me.

"You’re just making me more late you prick. I never did anything to you yet you treat me like everyone else does" I spat at him.

I watch his eyes flicker for a second, he then quickly pulls me in for a hug, whispering in my ear. "I don't have a choice bug, I'm really sorry" he squeezes me, tears spill down my face, I haven't had a hug from him since he started acting like this, which honestly was only recently.

Jason pulls away from the hug, he studies my face as the bruise is already showing. I see sadness fill his eyes when he looks at it.

"I know you don’t have a choice, he punished you almost ripped your title of Beta when he found out you were still nice to me. I just hurts" I say holding my cheek

"look you need to get going before Alpha gets even more angry, meet me tonight at the lake okay, I promise it will just be us two. we need to figure away to get you out of here." he whispers looking around making sure no one hears his words.

I nod at him, and he turns and walks away. Quickly I make my way down the hallway, towards the Alpha Silas' office. Everyone staring at me, some muttering, some making ungodly comments. I roll my eyes at them, my pace slowly turning into a run.

I approach his door, knocking on it. A loud growl erupted from the room.

"You’re fucking late"

I open the door to his office, and there he is standing in front of his desk his amber eyes glaring at me. In all honesty he'd be really attractive if he wasn't so vile.

"I am so sorry Alpha" I say lowering my head in submissiveness. "I was up very late last night getting everything ready for your parents visit, like you had asked me too."

I take a small peak up at him, his expression surprised yet some what delighted.

"stand up straight, I'll forgive you this one time, since you did get everything done for me, in a quick manner. You also reminded me I have to deal with my parents tomorrow." he sighs "just get to cleaning my office" he says leaving the room. leaving me in complete awe.

"What the hell was that" I whisper to myself. "He was actually nice for once. Is he sick?" I shake my head in confusion.

I quickly get to work, I only have an hour before he usually returns, to start doing pack work. I start off with his desk, picking up all the trash off his desk, this man loves snacks for sure. I organize all his papers, putting pens back in the holding cup. I then see a sticky note, it has my name on it.

"Mae Evans, possible Mate" I read out loud, then the door opens. quickly I put the note back, and continue to organize.

Alpha Silas walks in an hour later and he’s mad. I lower my head in submissiveness, stepping away from his desk. He goes to the couch in flops on it turning on the TV. He then throws his head back in frustration and growls.

I quickly go over to his bar in his office, pouring him a glass of whiskey. This is a daily thing I deal with, so it's nothing new. Quickly I walk over to him with the cup in my hand. He takes it from me Immediately, downing it . He hands me back the cup, his hand brushes my hand, I felt this weird feeling, it made me jolt, causing me to drop the cup. Silas sits up quickly at the sound of breaking glass.

"I'm so sorry" I drop to my knees, starting to pick up the glass.

"Mae do it with a broom..." he sighs

"Ow" I whimper as a piece of glass slices my hand, blood running down my hand, dripping onto the floor. The glass now, covered in blood. I drop all the pieces I had picked up

Silas Grabs my wrist with the injured hand. Looking at it.

"I-I'm so sorry" I look down.

"It's just a cup, it's fine not like you broke something important." he stands up, pulling me up by my wrist. "Sit here" he pushes me on the couch to sit. him still having ahold of my wrist, its causing this tingling sensation.

"I'm going to heal it, that way you don't have to go to the pack doctor as usual." he sighs leaning his mouth down to my hand, slowly licking it. I whimper at the contact of his tongue hitting the gash on my hand.

I have no idea what to say, this isn't Alpha Silas, he’s never this way, he would never touch me, Not even with a 10 foot pole.

He pulls away from my hand, looking at me steady with his bright green eyes. Letting go of my wrist he turns away from me. "your birthday is tomorrow correct" he says to me

"Yes sir it is." I say lowering my head.

"Take the rest of the day off, and tomorrow too" he sighs, walking to his desk. "I'll get the glass up, so don't touch it again."

"Ok. Thank you." I say the hurry out of the room, closing the door behind me. I lean on the door.

Fuck me, he is my mate, Moon Goddess why must put me with a cruel man like him.
