Rejected by the Mate that wanted me

Chapter 1

Little bit about me

Raven's POV

I have lived in the Cresent Moon Pack for my entire life, never knowing anything but this pack, living the life of an Omega even with being the former Beta's daughter.

My father betrayed the pack, betrayed our Alpha when he was killed leaving my mother and I alone to pick up the shattered pieces of his betrayal.

My mother losing her fated mate broke her beyond repair as I tried for the first couple years to help her, to let her know that I wouldn't leave her, that I was enough for her however, when I turned 13 she passed.

Technically she ended up killing herself from the drinking, because she drank so much that she lived her life drunk, adding wolfsbane to the liquor so she hadn't even felt her wolf in so long she forgot what it was to be one.

After she was gone I became an orphan, one everyone treated horribly because of what my father had done. I honestly wasn't sure what exactly it was he did but that didn't matter, without him here, or my mother, the anger or resentment was passed down to me.

Living the life of a servant that even the other Omegas didn't want around was a hard life but I worked hard, tried to stay under the radar while completing my studies so that one day I could get out of this place, leaving the pack once and for all to pursue a life without torment or ranking.

I graduate high school in less than two months. I have already applied to different universities so that I had a place to go. The only thing I needed to do was get the permission of our Alpha, the same Alpha responsible for my father's death, to leave so that I wouldn't have to become a rogue in order to go.

My eighteenth birthday is the last day of classes. I doubt I will be blessed with a fated, even if I am I have no doubt I would be rejected because of how I am seen to this pack.

I live in a small corner of a room inside of a basement within an Omega house full of servants that have their own rooms but I am made to sleep in the dankness of this basement that has no heat.

Cold stone walls with a concrete floor, a tiny window that honestly doesn't give off much light. There was a single light fixture within the room by the stairs leading down but it didn't do much for where I was permitted to sleep.

My small mattress that laid within the corner with scraps of old blankets making a spot of den for myself to keep warm. The one thing I do have down here for heat is the washer and dryers where everyone does laundry, well where they all leave their laundry for me to do for them anyway.

The dryers give off a good amount of heat plus I can put my blankets inside to warm them up before bed. I still have no wolf so I don't retain body heat the way the others that work do because their wolves give them warmth.

Less than two months I will receive my wolf, I worry she will be weak due to my lack of strength, I could be stronger but I'm forbidden to train and my food rations aren't exactly top notch. Some days I'm only able to eat once, some times I don't get a meal at all.

I'm given leftovers from the meals prepared here, but every so often I find the food thrown out so I am unable to eat. Cruel and unusual punishment for someone that never did anything to hurt anyone.

There were no other underage wolves in this house, they all live with their parents, but that doesn't stop them from treating me horribly either.

School is no sanctuary for me, it's just like here except they like physical abuse. Nothing to extreme thankfully, just shoves here and there or things thrown at me as I sit in the back of all my classes.

Teachers don't stop their antics either, they ignore it all the time, even they don't believe I matter here. Well all except one, she may not stand up for me but she gives me books, she also treats with me kindness when no one else is around.

I understand why, if she was to be kind to me in front of others she may receive foul treatment as well. Thankfully she is my last class of the day so if I take to long to pack up the small amount of supplies I have, I have someone to speak to for a minute that doesn't talk down to me, but treats me as if I'm actually a person.

Because of her, Mrs. Blair, by the way, she is the reason I have a chance to get into a University. She has helped me in more ways than I can mention, including helping me with my applications to the school.

I asked for a meeting with the Alpha, praying that maybe, just maybe he will give me just a small moment of his time but my hopes aren't up. If I have to go rogue in order to leave this place then I will.

I'd leave now but with no wolf at all I'd stand no chance of survival out there, plus shifting for the first time in a random area where I could be found out was detrimental to our species as a whole, even though I'm treated as a leper within this territory doesn't mean I'd ever want anyone of them hurt or other packs hurt due to our secret getting out because of me either. I'm not wanting to give a really reason for the hate.

So instead I suck up the fact that I am malnourished, mistreated, or how I'd never hurt anyone else for my own personal gain no matter how crappy they may have treated me.

Now I am on my way over to the packhouse to do the cleaning. Today I have to clean every bathroom within the house, it takes me the entire day until the sun is down when I trudge back to my small hole in hopes that I will be able to eat something today.

It is four in the morning as I stretch out my cold aching bones, things popping and cracking that I don't believe should be doing that at my age, but what can you do.

After stretching out my body I get up from the floor them change into my maids uniform, a small light blue dress that hangs off of me more now than it ever did before. I pull my long dull brown hair into a pony tail before brushing my teeth in the clothes washing sink I have down here.

A small mirror hanging on the wall shows me my hollow reflection. I used to have a sparkle in my eye, my hair used to shine with natural highlights, my cheeks are now void of color as they cave in slightly. My eyes have dark circles around them while my pale skin lacks any vibrancy. The main thing I have even being just skin and bones is my chest, I have decent sized breasts but they look massive with my tiny stature.

All in all, I look sickly from growing up in the dark with barely any food while sleeping in a dark wet cold room. No one would love me, if I found my mate later on, they would take one look at me before walking away.

Shaking off some of the cold I slowly crept up the stairs as quietly as I could muster. I tried to never wake anyone or cause to much noise so I can sneak out without having to hear anyone put me down.

Closing the front door behind me I made my way through the dark to the packhouse to begin cleaning the community restrooms before having to do one's within quarters after the pack members have woken for the day.

I walk I'm through the servants quarters to see that not even the kitchen staff has began prepping for the day. Walking over to the closets where my cart was for cleaning I ran face first into a wall, wait, no that isn't a wall, I ran into Axel Hunter, the Alpha Heir.

My heart was thundering in my chest as I was knocked backwards from running into him so hard, I staggered while barely managing to catch myself from falling down on my ass.

"I'm so so sorry Alpha, please forgive me."

I bowed my head as I backed up a few more steps when I heard him inhale deeply before a growl left him making me shiver before craning my neck further into submission as he huffed before walking away from me.

Letting out the breath I hadn't realizing I was holding, I finished my way to the closet, grabbing my cart as I headed to the community restrooms as I began cleaning them thoroughly.

By the time I finished with the last shower stall the door opened when I saw some pack members making their way inside to shower and begin their days.

No one paid me any mind as I made my way out passed them to start going to the private quarters to clean up in their bathrooms.

Like on schedule, as I made my way to specific areas of the house people were leaving their suites to go down stairs to enjoy a nice breakfast.

It was now just after nine in the morning as I went through all the rooms to clean. By the time I had finished up all the suites on the second floor I made my way to the Alphas suites.

Six rooms in total up here but they were the largest of them all, not only do I clean the restrooms up here but I also change all the bedding in each room then do the laundry for them as well.

Going through each room, cleaning up after everyone i went to the last room at the end of the hall, knocking I heard no sound so I slowly opened the door before calling out to make sure no one was here.

"I'm here to clean the rooms?"

I said aloud but received no answer so I made my way inside. Stripping down the bed I started to put the newly cleaned sheets on it, while tucking in the corners I felt a presence behind me as it sent my body into a flight or fight response.
