Larisa was seated on the floor, shattered and in her human side, naked.
Tears rolled down her cheeks as the discovery had broken her completely. Finding her wolf side was supposed to be a huge relief, it was supposed to provide her with the happiness she sought.She had desperately hoped and prayed for her wolf side to be strong and powerful but all hopes was now gone.She was not strong or powerful, she wasn't even a normal wolf. She was an omega! The lowliest of the wolves.There was barely any difference between being a wolfless girl and being an omega....No, there was a difference.A wolfless girl could hope to have a strong wolf but an omega had no hopes.It was the end."Larisa, you do not have to cry this much" her grandma wrapped her arm around her and patted her gently."At least you now have your wolf side""It is not enough, granny" Larisa cried."It's never going to end now. They are never going to stop picking on me" she cried."Picking on you?" Her grandmother pulled away from the hug and glanced at Larisa who lowered her head, realizing she had just spilled what she had been hiding for years."Are they picking on you? All these while?""No... I... That was a slip of tongue" Larisa tried to deny but her grandmother was not having it."So all these while, you have been suffering out there? And you come home and tell I and your brother that everything is fine and you are doing okay? Why would you do that? "Larisa sobbed and palmed her face while her grandmother waited for a response."Why did you hide it from us, Larisa? We are your family!""Because I didn't want to trouble you!" Larisa shot her head up and wiped her tears with the back of her hands."You are usually home, cooking and ensuring that everything is in place. That's stressful enough for you and brother? He has to go to work so early and come back so late just so he can cater for us! And me? I am useless enough. I try to get a job and they don't want someone who can't mindlink, they don't want someone without the strength only a wolf possess! I have been useless all along. I.... I did not want to disturb the both of you even more" she broke down into sobs."Larisa" her grandmother called softly and draped her arm around Larisa warmly."You should have told us still, Larisa. And you are not useless at all. We love you. I and Alex love you a lot. Whatever has to do with you cannot be a bother.""You are beautiful.....""Not about being beautiful again!" Larisa cried out."I would rather have a face filled with scars" she cried."With a beautiful face and no strength, the only job and position I can attain is the Pack's slut! The best I can get is in different men's beds""And now..." Her voice cracked."And now that I have my wolf, I have to be an omega" she cried and then she felt another hurt within her.It was her wolf side hurting, it was most probably feeling bad that its human didn't want her at all. It was probably feeling useless just like Larisa had felt all these years.Larisa decided not to talk about it anymore. She didn't want to hurt her wolf side more than her words already did."Calm down, Larisa. You are not going to be a Pack slut. I can see it, I can feel it, you are destined for much more" her grandmother said."It's okay, grandma. I... I want to sleep now" she got up from the floor on wobbly feet and got onto her bed.She pulled the sheets over her head quickly and closed her eyes."Alright. I will bring your food in so you can eat later"Larisa gave no response to that. She heard her grandmother sigh and her footsteps as she walked out of the room, shutting the door gently behind her.Just a few minutes later, Larisa heard the door open again.Her grandmother was back with the meal. With a tug, the old lady pulled the sheets off Larisa and pressed a kiss to her forehead.Tears rolled down silently as Larisa listened to the old lady's footsteps fading away.The next dayLarisa remained in her room, the tray of food her grandma had brought the previous night remained on the table where she had dropped it.Larisa had no interest in anything, eating or going for another as a trainee. It was useless to do so now. She had her wolf side, an omega."Larisa!" She heard her brother's voice, Alex.He had been banging her door since the early hours of the day, urging her to open the door but Larisa could not open the door to face him.Many times, she had assured him that once she got her wolf side, she would help him, working hard and making money with him so that they could take care of their lives even better. She did not know how she could face him now and tell him that none of that was going to be possible."Larisa, open the door. Let's talk""I don't want to talk, Alex! I don't want to" she cried."She is bent on not opening the door still?" She heard the voice of her grandma."She is not opening up. I just hope she is not harming herself.""Larisa" her grandma called with a small knock on the door."Open the door. I already told you last night that it is okay. You do not have to feel too bad about it. Alex wants to talk to you before he goes to work. You know how he is, he won't go to work if he does not see you so open the door, Larisa" her grandmother cooed.Larisa gave no response. Their words were supposed to comfort her, make her feel better but the words did none of that. Their words, instead, stabbed her like a dagger.Every word they said seemed to remind her how huge of a failure she was to them."Alex, you are going to be late. You should get going now, I will talk to Larisa and you are going to meet her in a better mood when you are back."There was silence for some seconds before Larisa heard Alex whisper a soft 'yes'.About two minutes later, there was another knock on the door."Larisa, grandma has a solution to you being an omega. You do not have to be an omega for life. You can change your fate."Larisa's eyes widened and she threw the sheets off her body."Are you saying this just so I can open the door?" Larisa asked, skeptic about it."Of course not. There is a way but I am not telling you while you keep yourself locked in" the old lady replied and Larisa suddenly found strength in her legs.She walked to the door and unlocked the door."Finally, Larisa" the old lady pulled Larisa into a warm hug."You have no idea how worried Alex would be on his way to work"Larisa pulled away from the hug and held her grandmother vy the shoulders."What is the solution? How can I change this fate?" She asked with desperate eyes.Her grandmother sighed, took Larisa's hands and led her to the couch in the room.The both of them settled on the couch."Have you had your first sex yet?" Her grandmother asked and Larisa felt her cheeks heat up.Most wolves her their first sex at age 18 when they met their mates and others who met their mate a bit later had theirs at age 19 or 20 but she was 25 and absolutely single."No" was her response, lowering her gaze."But what does that have to do with me being an omega?" She asked curiously."It's good. Good thing you are still untouched. You just have to find a strong and powerful male wolf who has enough wolf energy you can suck some off from. And then you get him to be your first. By having your first sex with him, you will be able to get some wolf energy from him. ""Really?""I would never lie about things like this. I didn't want to tell you about this but I guess....""I will do it" Larisa cut her off and got up from the couch.She looked into the mirror and saw the sad but yet beautiful figure staring back at her.Perhaps it was time to put her beauty into use. Time to seduce the strongest male wolf she could find.And who else could be the perfect male wolf, if not him? The strongest of the Pack....Alpha Leandro."Stop! Don't do it, Larisa!" Larisa stopped when she heard the voice of her grandmother. "Grandma?" She called in surprise and just at that moment, Leandro came into the scene. "Larisa, please don't do this" Leandro said, standing beside grandma. "Grandma! I told you I was scared of this but you assured me that everything was going to be fine" Larisa cried. "That is because everything will be fine, Larisa" Grandma replied and stepped away from Leandro, revealing that she also had a silver dagger in her hands. "Wh... What are you doing, grandma?." Larisa questioned. "When I went to see the witch, she told me... She told me the wedding would really trigger the curse but she also gave me a good news. I also have... I also have the blood of a moon blessed one so I can work as the sacrifice"Larisa shook her head as she understood what her grandma was about to do. "Don't" she shook her head but Grandma just smiled sadly. "I am happy that I at least got to see you get married to a m
"The curse is starting" Larisa was in shock as she stared down at the corpse of the man. "What is going on?""Why did he die?""Another one is dying!""What's going on?!"Every guest was panicking and only a few knew what was going on. "It's... It's fine, Larisa. It's time for you to leave" Leandro grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her out of the wedding venue. "No, no" Larisa whispered as she shook her head wondering how her fears had come true when her grandmother had assured her the previous day that their wedding was not going to trigger the curse. Leandro did not stop running and pulling her along until they got to the car. He pulled the car door open but Larisa did not step into the car. "Risa? Get into the car, you have to leave the Pack before the ones who know about the curse start speaking up and demand you to be killed" Larisa drew in a deep breath and let out a shaky one, her eyes filling with tears. She suddenly threw her arms around Leandro and kissed him hard.
A day before the wedding"Are you sure everything will be fine, Grandma?" Larisa asked over the phone. "I met with an old witch that I have known for some time now. She assured me that the wedding rings is not part of a marking which means the curse will not happen even after the wedding so you do not have to trouble yourself. Tomorrow is your wedding, Larisa. Do not stress yourself over things that won't happen. Tomorrow is going to go very smoothly. Nothing will go wrong" Larisa sighed softly. "I hope so""I am telling you that nothing will happen. The curse will not be triggered by the wedding.""Alright Grandma. I trust you" Larisa replied. "As you should. Now I want you to be at peace and only focus on the happiness coming tomorrow" Grandma said."You know you should be here with me today, Grandma" Larisa grumbled. "I will be at the wedding tomorrow, Larisa. Alex is already there with you guys. You will see me tomorrow""Alright Grandma"The door opened behind her and Leandr
"You should not have come over, Risa. I and Alex would have come to see you over there" Grandma said with a smile as she sat down beside Larisa who had come visiting. "You are my family. I can come visiting my family whenever I want to, right?" Larisa asked, diverting her attention from the television to her grandma. The both of them were in the living room of the beautiful home. "Your wedding is in less than two weeks, you should not be walking all about anymore" Grandma shook her head. "I came to see you. I am not walking all about and there is nothing for me to do right now. Leandro is spoiling me.""Just like you deserve" the old lady smiled. "What about your wedding dress? Is it ready?" Grandma questioned. "Not yet. Everything is happening so fast. The wedding dress will be ready in two or three days. Leandro insisted he wanted me wearing a custom made dress and since it's being made, we have to wait a little""Wow. I can not wait to witness your special day, Larisa" Grandm
"How did it go?" Kimberly asked Hayden who was walking towards her with a tired look on his face. They both of them had moved into the home Hayden's home and life was great for them. "Is he going to punish me for what I did?" Kimberly asked, fear in her eyes. "Yes, Kimberly. I... I tried so hard to beg him but Leandro has made up his mind" Hayden shook his head sadly and Kimberly felt her soul leaving her body. "What did... Did he say my punishment will be?" She asked, fearing what the response would be. "You and I are going to be sent out of the Pack, Kim. We are going to be banished to become rogues"Kimberly gasped, her eyes dilating in shock. She had been expecting such punishment for herself but including Hayden in the punishment when he barely did anything was too brutal, right?"I am sorry, Hayden. I caused all of this" Kimberly lowered her gaze to the floor, her eyes filling up with tears. A smirk appeared on Hayden's lips. "If I did not do that, you would not be in thi
Few days later"You have something to tell me?" Leandro asked, sitting behind the desk at the company. Having being away for quite a long time, he had loads of work to deal with "Yes, Alpha Leandro" Hayden replied and the formal tone made Leandro look away from the file he had been reading through. "What is the issue?" Leandro questioned and Hayden sighed before dropping down to his knees. "What did you do?" Leandro questioned, his brows arching. "I am really sorry, Leandro but I... I told Kimberly about the curse and back then, she was the one who faked the curse. You were curious to know who faked the curse. It was Kimberly and it was my fault that she got to know about the curse in the first place. Please forgive me, Alpha Leandro" He apologized and Leandro lowered his gaze to the floor. "I knew you were hiding something""Kimberly is changed now. She faked the curse so that Larisa would die and she would be able to have you but she no longer wishes for that. She now loves me
Leandro was frozen on the spot as he stared at Luciano, his brother whom he thought was long dead. "Luciano? Is this really you?" Leandro asked, picking his words one after the other, wondering if this was Luciano or Luciano's ghost. "Leandro! It's me!" Luciano replied, standing a few meters away from Leandro with Alex standing behind him. "I really don't know why I did all of what I did twelve years ago and why I did what I did this time too. I don't...." Leandro walked towards Luciano and grabbed his arm."You are alive" he whispered and without letting Luciano say another word, he pulled him into a tight hug. "Luciano, you are alive""I am sorry for all I did, Leandro. I really don't know why I did all of it.""It doesn't matter, Luciano. It was not your fault." Luciano wrapped his arms around his brother and the others stared at the reunited brothers hugging each other. "Alex" Larisa called out to Alex and Alex walked over to her side. "Where did you find Luciano?" Larisa as
Larisa had a playful frown on her face as Leandro walked into the living room with a bag in his right hand and a smile on his face. The smile faded when he saw the look on her face. "Hey" he called softly, walking towards the sofa where she was seated.Larisa turned away from his gaze and Leandro held her wrist. "Did something happen while I was away?" He asked. "Where have you been all these while?" Larisa asked, shooting him a glare. "I have been preparing something" Leandro replied. "What were you preparing that took you away for hours? Your pup missed you so much already""Oh, is that it?" Leandro asked, lowering his gaze to her stomach. "Oh my dear pup" he bent down and kissed her stomach."Your dad is here now, do you forgive dad now?" He asked and pressed his left ear to her stomach. "I think she just said yes" Leandro chuckled. "I have told you already it is a he" Larisa's facials eased as Leandro sat up to look at her face. "Was it just my pup who missed me? Or did
"Here you go, your meal for the evening" Alex dropped the tray of food on the bedside table. "You really are not going to let me go?" Luciano asked. "Not until I am sure that you are changed and you promise me to disappear from the Pack immediately" Alex replied and Luciano rolled his eyes, his gaze landing on the tray of food."Did you add that substance into this meal again? The substance to make me weaker?" Luciano questioned. "Believe what you want to believe, Sir Luciano" Alex replied and Luciano shook his head. "If this has the substance in it, you will get weaker but still, if you do not eat it, you will be hungry and remain weak. So in anyways, you are staying weak" Alex added and Luciano frowned deeply. "You are something else but you just wait till I am out of here" Luciano threatened and picked the tray of food, dropping it on his laps. "Leandro and Larisa are still having a sweet, happy life?" Luciano asked. "Yes and they do not need you, Sir Luciano to disturb thei
