The admission

Chapter 1

AMBER'S POV

It was in the night and my brother and I were coming back from a game hub. The wind was caressing my skin, making me feel sleepy as I was already exhausted. 

"Brother, just be a little faster. I really want to get home to sleep." I pouted, looking at him with cute eyes.

"I have told you several times. It isn't good to drive too fast, or to be in a rush while driving." My brother said, with a smile.

That was his usual attitude to driving. If I ever asked him to be a bit faster, he'll repeat those words.

All of a sudden, something hit us and the car backflipped, I think I had fainted, because I didn't know when the car landed on the floor. I opened my eyes slowly as thing were a bit fuzzy. And to my horror, my brother was laying dead, with a few bigger broken glass pierced into his heart.

I was a weak omega, why didn't the moon goddess let me die in his place? Why was I left only with bruises? Tears strolled down my cheeks as I wiggled out of the car. As I stood up, I saw a huge monster, a few steps from me. Fear gripped me, although, I couldn't see it's face and some other parts clearly, but it gave me the chills.

I started moving back little by little as sweat beads popped up on my bruised forehead. Then the huge monster began to move closer to me, I could hear it snarling and it was about to claw me to death when the ambulance siren sounded. This made the monster to run away. I was grateful that if didn't take me away with it.

"You have to be strong, okay? We'll take you to the hospital to be certain that you are fine." One of the ambulance attendants, tried to encourage me.

"Do you have any guardian? or relative, somewhere else?" She asked, with her hand on my shoulder.

"Not anymore." I responded, thinking about my brother, the only family I had.

Tears flowed down from my eyes, non-stop until we got to the hospital and he was wheeled somewhere else. I was also taken to a ward and the doctor checked my pulse, eyes, etc, to be certain that I am fine.

"She is fine. Does she have any guardian?" The doctor asked one of the nurses.

"No, doctor." She replied, looking respectfully at the doctor.

"Get to Alpha Gerald and tell him about this. He'll know what to do." The doctor suggested, them stroked my hair to the back, patting me like he was telling me that I'll be fine.

About thirty minutes after, Alpha Gerald came to the hospital. He walked with confidence and the aura around him spelled ALPHA. He went over to the doctor and discussed some things that I couldn't hear, it was going to be disrespectful to the Alpha if I had eavesdropped.

Then he walked over to me, with a slight smile on his face.

"Amber right?" He asked, bending his head down to see my face.

Alpha Gerald had taken me to his mansion where I was led to one of the finest rooms I have ever seen. Since then, I was adopted by him and became the adopted daughter of the Alpha.

I stayed in my room for days, without going out. The maids only brought food for me and whatever I needed. It was hard to accept the fact that my brother was dead. But I guess the moon goddess decided that I wouldn't be in misery without him as the Alpha had taken me in as a daughter, and I guess they wanted me to have a lone time to get myself.

I heard a knock on the door and I thought that it was one of the maids that do bring food to me. 

"Have you had your bath?" Alpha Gerald asked, staring at me with no expression on his face. 

"Y... yes." I looked at him, wondering why he seemed stern.

His daughter, June, looked at me spitefully as she stayed beside the Alpha.

"Now, get over to the kitchen and help out the maid that is preparing breakfast. Today is her last day here, so you'll take over in preparing breakfast for us." He said, with his face, looking cold.

"And when you are done with that, I have a few clothes I want you to dry clean." June said, closing her eyes in pride, with a slight smile on her face.

I was shocked, because I didn't see this coming. If I said I understood what was going on, that was a lie.

Since that day, I became a slave to Alpha Gerald and June. The room I was put in was no longer mine, I was moved to a shabby room where I spent most nights, scared. I did so many chores and was overworked. I was even bullied and treated wrongly by June, even among her friends. 

"Why am I being treated this way? Did I offend you in any way, those times that I was in my room, locked up?" I asked, with tears in my eyes.

"You are weak and have no use as a werewolf. It is best that you do the best you can, which is doing chores and running errands." Alpha Gerald answered, with his eyebrow raised at me.

Even after I summoned up the courage to ask that question, things worsened for me. There were times when I was locked up in the cupboard for a few hours.

A day came when I was working in the kitchen with one of the maids who was brought in as an assistant as that was the only thing Alpha Gerald made easy for me.

"I have a suggestion, Amber. I can see that the Alpha and his daughter mistreat you a lot. Why don't you apply for a scholarship program in Vetals High? They will take you in if you pass the exam and you will be living in the dorm. At least, you will be free from them for a while." She advised, with a slight smile on her face.

This encouraged me to apply for the program.

A month later, I got a letter that I have been admitted to Vetals High. This was going to be where my life would change.
