Furious.
Sophia.
Furious, my father’s face contorts with anger. His eyes are flashing, his fists clenching, and his breath heaving as he tries to keep his temper in check. He hates me, yet still loves me deeply.
He hates me because I always question him. I can feel the tension in the air as he stares at me, silently conveying his disapproval of my actions. His wolf despises me too, though they won’t do anything to harm me, as I’m his most beloved daughter. I love the look on his face.
He takes his seat and eats quietly. After eating, he gets up. I can still sense his rage.
“Are you leaving now Father?” I tease him. I love infuriating him. It’s fun.
He turns to me and glares. “Are you trying to drive me to my grave, Sophia?” He screams at me. “Do you really want to kill your own father? Can’t you just let me be?”
I can’t help but giggle. “What are you talking about, Dad?” I ask. “I’m not trying to kill you, and I’m sorry if my behavior makes you think so. Forgive me.”
When it comes to acting, I’m the queen, and also ruthless when it comes to my opponents. I know I go too far when challenging my dad, but I don’t give a fuck. I’m not scared of anyone, and I can do whatever I want.
“I can only imagine what will happen if you have the chance to meet your wolf,” he says. “You’re this cruel, even without your wolf. I’m curious to see if your wolf will be more intimidating than you. I can’t just imagine.”
I watch as he keeps talking. I try to keep my face neutral, not wanting to give my thoughts away. I try to stay calm. I’m not pissed because I know he’s right. His words linger in the air, like a heavy fog that’s hard to shake off. I’m not sure what will become of me, but I know it will be good. I’m not scared of what might happen if I ever meet my wolf.
“Dad, are you done?” I question. “If yes, then we should start going. We don’t want to be late.”
“Look at your good daughter, Bella,” he frames, confronting my mom, who is still eating. “By the time I’m done with the both of you, you are going to show her who her real father is, because I know she isn’t my daughter.”
Here comes the usual topic. My mom looks at him in silence. Her face expressionless.
I know he will drag my mother into this. I know he will say I’m not his real daughter.
I sob, “Mother, who is my real father?” I can see the anger in my mom’s eyes. She is holding her anger at bay.
“Aaron,” she calls, gripping her teeth together. “Can you repeat what you just say? What makes you think that?” She speak in a low voice, her eyes not leaving his face. “You’ve been saying this for years, and you are yet to provide any evidence that she isn't your child.”
Out of guilt, my father replies, “I’m sorry, honey. I shouldn’t have question her birth. I only say that shit out of anger. Please forgive me.”
“Forgive you?” My mom sneers. “I won’t take it out on you in front of the kids. We will have a serious talk when we come back from the meeting.”
“Thank you,” he sighs. “Let’s leave. The alpha will be waiting for me.”
We all go to the pack hall, including my sister and Lucas. My sister still eyes me carefully. I can still feel her hatred for me. She still wants me dead, I know, but I have no time for her since she isn’t planning to attack me. Even if she wants to attack me, she won’t dare because she already knows who the real queen is. Lucas looks at me apologetically, but I look away. I can feel my sister’s eyes on me as we walk toward the pack hall.
We make our grand entrance to the pack hall. I start looking around for my beautiful friend, Elena, but she is nowhere to be find.
“Who are you looking for, sister?” Rita asks.
“No one,” I respond coldly.
“Then why are you looking around as if you are looking for someone?” She questions. “Are you looking for the Alpha’s daughter, Sister?”
“Why can’t you let me be, baby sister?” I scorn. “Must you know who I’m looking for? Well, you are right. I’m looking for Elena. Can you please let me be now?”
I am still talking to Rita when Alpha and his wife enter the hall. My lips curl into a smile as soon as I see her. I feel alive. Our eyes meet, but she quickly diverts her gaze from mine without exchanging pleasantries like usual, which didn’t go unnoticed again by Rita, who presses further about why we aren’t talking. I can feel the tension between us. I want to go to her and talk, but I know I can’t. I want her to look at me again, but she keeps her gaze averted. Eh! What’s wrong? Why is she ignoring me? She’s supposed to smile and wave her hand at me. Why is she ignoring me? Is it because of him? I stare at the little boy she is holding. Wait? Did I see clearly? Did that little devil just smirk at me? I am right about him. He’s here to spy on us. I’m sure he is sent from another pack.
“I welcome you all.” The alpha starts his speech. “I’m glad you are all attending this important meeting. I call this meeting to introduce Mark to the pack. Come here, boy,” the alpha says as Mark walks to him.
“Mark will be joining this pack as my son, and I hope all of you will welcome him.”
Everywhere is silent. No one jubilates. Everyone is confused by the alpha’s decision. We have been hiding because of his enemies, so why adopt a stranger as his son?
“Alpha,” Josh call before bowing his head. He is part of the warriors in the pack. “Can I ask you a question, sir?”
“Of course, Josh. You can ask whatever you want. I will be here to give you an answer,” the alpha says with a smile.
“Who is this boy, sir?” he questions. “Can you tell us how you come across this boy and why you think making him your son will benefit us all?”
There is a lot of whispering in the hall. Everyone is eager to know Mark’s identity, but they dare not question the alpha. I’m not sure why Josh asks him that kind of question. The alpha hates when his decisions are questioned, as far as I know. Nevertheless, Josh is brave enough to ask the alpha about Mark’s identity. I can feel the tension in the air.
“Are you questioning my decision, Josh?” he roars. “Are you telling me I am risking the lives of the pack members because of my son? How dare you?” Everyone is forced to bow their heads due to his powerful roar.
I have always known that alpha is a stupid man, but I never know he is more stupid than I think. I keep my head in a bow, but I can feel the anger and frustration boiling inside me. How can he accept Mark as his son based on what Elena tells him? Is he risking his pack members’ lives because of him?
“I’m sorry, Alpha,” Josh manages to say. “I dare not question your decision.” The alpha is burning. He is burning with rage.
“I don’t care if you like my decision or not. I’m accepting him as my son, and you all must accept him as one of us,” he commands before storming out of the hall.
The meeting comes to an end with all in attendance dispersing while Mom promises Dad that they’ll discuss further on what happen earlier regarding him questioning whether I’m really his daughter or not. Dad hangs his head in shame, knowing that Mom won’t forgive him easily.
His vengeful queen. Sophia. “Wait a minute, Elena,” I say, pursuing her after the alpha leaves. She comes to a halt and turns her back with a questioning look, saying, “Hello, Sophia, it’s you. I have no idea you are running after us,” she sneers. “Is there something you need?” Is she always like this? What causes her personality to change? How can she transform into someone else, or did I not recognize her? I take a step back and watch her, trying to figure out what is going on. It is as if she is a wholly different person, and I can't understand why. She seems to be hiding something. “What is wrong with you, Elena?” I ask. “Is there anything I did to irritate you?” “I’m not sure what you’re trying to imply here,” she says innocently. “Did I hit you or something? What are you insinuating, Sophia?” “No! No! It’s not like that. I’m only worried about the sudden change. Is everything alright?” I ask, staring at how tightly she grips him. Suddenly, Mark runs behind Elena. El
Sophia.I warn her, “If you don’t let me go now, I’ll do something you’ll never expect,” I threaten. But she drags my hair painfully instead of letting me go.Sneering, she replies, “Do you really think you can beat me the same way you beat and kill Matt? I’m a lot stronger than you think.”Without another word, I turn around and kick her hard in the shins. That plastic-looking face. She lets go of my hair and stumbles back in pain, screaming, and with blood pouring from her nose. I stand there motionless as my heart races. I stand there, motionless, my heart pounding. She looks up at me with a look of shock and pain on her face.“You bitch!” She screams. “What have you done? How dare you hurt my beautiful face?” I attack her again before she can defend herself. I begin to hit and kick her in the stomach. First, it was my sister in the morning, then Elena, and now this slut. Are they trying to kill me? I won’t hold back again. Not again! She will suffer for all of them this time. Grabb
Rules. Sophia. “I see what you’re saying. Go meet the alpha,” she whispers. Her disappointment is evident. “I’ll save the food for you.” Everyone can tell she’s disappointed. “Do you have to leave us, Father?” I ask. “Do you really need to turn your back on your meal just to attend to the alpha?” Aside from my mother’s unwillingness, I have a terrible feeling about this. He sighs. “You don’t understand how this stuff works, Sophia. It’s my duty. I have to protect our pack, and the Alpha needs me now for an emergency meeting. I’m sorry, Bella. I will make it up to you. I have to go now.” “Don’t be late,” my mother utters as she packs his food. Father turns and leaves. We all know that my mother despises cooking and her mate refuses to eat. But it isn’t his fault. It is that stupid Alpha who didn’t know the right time to call him. Why must he call him when he is about to eat his mate’s food? I blame him. Throughout the time we are eating, Mother is quiet and sad. I can see the hu
The Primordial Wolf. My father’s demise. Sophia. “I will kill anyone who kills,” he says. “Don't keep begging me to let her live. She must be punished.” Did I cause my mother trouble? We only come here for my father, but I hate it when they treat my mother like that. All I know is that I want them to pay with their blood. I want to destroy their souls. “Alpha, before you sentence me to death,” I say. “I need to know about my father. Where has he gone? What happened to him? Where did you keep my father?” “Your father?” He inquires. “Why are you asking me about him? Where is he? I have no idea where he is. I have never seen him today.” What? Is he joking? He didn’t see my father? “Is that why you are here?” He asks. “Does anyone tell you I kidnap your mate and your father?” “What are you talking about, Alpha?” My mother asks. “My mate tells me he is coming to meet you. You ask him to see you.” “It just doesn’t make sense to me what you are saying, woman. You mean that your mate
Mother. Sophia. “You must pay dearly for endangering my daughter’s life,” she growls. “You will pay for this,” she says, her voice full of rage. “I’ve always wondered where this tiny devil gets her diabolical heart. Now I see, she gets it all from you,” the beta adds, still reeling from my mother’s clutches. “Your entire family is a demon. You are all possessed by a demon.” My mother’s expression changes and her eyes become darker, like the abyss. “Do not speak of my family like that,” she howls. Her fangs protrude from her mouth as the wolf inside her takes control. I can feel the energy radiating from her. It’s almost like her rage can be seen in the air. Her eyes blaze with anger. “I order you to stop right now,” the Alpha command. “Who do you think you are? This is not a place where you can do whatever you please, Bella. My beta is right about you and your family. Your entire family is evil, including your partner, whom I hold dear in my heart. Let me tell you, woman, I know
Vengeful wolf.In the pool of her blood.Sophia.I let out a horrified cry. “Mom!” I exclaim. She’s lying there in a pool of her own blood. “Please don’t leave me, Mom. Please.”She protects me from the Alpha’s onslaught. She gives up her life so I can live. I just can't accept the fact that he murdered both of my parents.'Crying is for the weak,' says the anonymous voice again. I scream out in agony, shaking my fists in the air. I can no longer contain my emotions, and I break down into tears. The pain shattered my heart.The Alpha sneers at my reaction, licking his lips as he savors her blood. “The blood of a traitor sure tastes good,” he says mockingly. “Your family is the enemy of the pack. Can you take a look around, darling? Take a look at their expressions. Everyone is glad that they are gone. Nobody wants them here.”I follow his gaze. To my greatest surprise. They all look relieve that my parents are gone. Nobody wants them here in this pack anymore. He’s not lying. Why? Why
Chapter Eleven.Betrayal can cause a deep sense of mistrust and insecurity. This can be especially true when the betrayal comes from someone that the person loves and trusts deeply. This betrayal can cause them to question their own judgment and can be difficult to come to terms with. This can lead to feelings of guilt, anger, and hurt that can be difficult to process and can cause further pain and confusion.***Sophia.“Good work, Beta,” the Alpha comments. “Where has Joy gone? We cannot afford to lose her.”“Alpha, she will arrive shortly. She won’t be able to escape. We paired her with Lucas, after all,” he remarks.This revelation takes me by surprise. I know Lucas isn’t a good one, and I’ve never believed he is Joy’s mate. But how did the beta accomplish this?“As you know, Alpha, although Joy’s combat skills aren’t as good as that demon kid’s standard, I would still suggest we kill her in case she decides to take revenge for her family being slain one day.”The beta is still tal
Chapter 12.Sophia.But then Beta chimed in with a better suggestion of his own; “Since it’s not long until her birthday and when she meets her wolf. Why not turn her into a pack whore? We will let all the unmated wolves have their way with her, and we will murder her just before she turns 18. She isn’t a threat to us right now. Only she is incapable of fighting, winning, or conquering us. I will advise you to make her the pack whore. Let all the unmated wolves feast on her flesh.”“Pack whore?” He inquires. “I don’t want to risk it, beta. You can’t tell. She might be powerful enough to wipe out the entire pack.” “I cannot forgive her for killing my only child, Alpha, and I cannot forgive myself if she has an easy life. I cannot forgive myself as a father if I accept killing her so easily,” he exclaims. “She must experience the same suffering that I do, and I must ensure that she does as well,” the beta howls. “Do you know the feeling of losing a son, Alpha? I find it difficult to sl
