Chapter 1: what can I do

POV(FIONA),

I stared at the ocean till my eyes got sore,the evening sun was up, the waves rushing forth and backwards, the magical sensation, it brought back memories to me.

A year ago I was branded Wolfless and demoted to an Omega, it was the saddest feeling but I thought it was probably a test from above, it was going to get fixed right?, But I was wrong.

The more I tried to adapt to the Omega rules, the more unfair life became to me, I try to hide my feelings and face it all, but sometimes I just cry it out.

I wish I had a shoulder to cry on, I try to keep it all to Myself but the more I did that, the more I get hurt, I blame destiny, I blame it for giving me an unwanted fate.

3 months ago I thought I had a chance when my roommate suddenly got her wolf, but mine didn't come, the Alpha gave up on me and I was forgotten.

My Father was a mere delta and suddenly got promoted to a Gamma, since he was old, it was one of the best feelings for our family, but things didn't go as planned for me like the others.

I was born into a family of 7(seven), me, my Mum, my dad and my four sisters, Bianca, Kimberly, Linda and Quail, they got their wolves early unlike me and they were a blessing to the family.

Bianca the eldest got mated on the same day I was declared Wolfless and the others are looking forward to getting their own mate, Kimberly and Linda has their own boyfriends, so their chance of getting their mate is very Lucid.

Quail is bent on helping the pack in war since she was a very strong Zeta and put her strength to good use, but that was in the eyes of all, the real Truth was, she had a crush on the Alpha and knew getting involved in the war affairs gave her the chance of being closer to him, he doesn't seem to like her though, but who knows?, A change of destiny could happen, just like I'm waiting for mine.

But it didn't happen, today marks one year since I've been waiting, and the feeling of rejection keeps drawing me away from my family, my father won't even look me in the eye and my mum seems to be tired of hoping since she was the only one that stood by me, my father rarely talks to me unless there's an occasion with the excuse of being busy, while he spends time with Kimberly and Linda In His free time.

I felt he grew out of love and it was probably best to stay away from him,he never expected anything from me, the moment I was branded Wolfless, he just walked away, he never wanted a 5th child and a female?, He was annoyed by my birth and made me feel rejected, but of course I was a mistake.

Linda and Kimberly derived joy from doing nothing and moving with the cool delta's all day, then they come home very late at night pretending to be tired and I'm stuck with the responsibility of preparing their meals.

They treat me like I'm beneath them, and mock me when their friends are around,on the inside, they also hate me, but pretend when our parents are around, they are not the best sisters, but what can I do?, Destiny is a trickstar.

"Fiona get over here already!!, The Zeta has arrived!!!", I heard Bubby, my roommate yell from afar, it's Linda, she has arrived, and I have to go serve her dinner, and of course, it's my so called duty.

I ran as fast I could as I stormed into the kitchen, "where have you been the whole day?!", Madam Pika, the kitchen head,nagged with a frown on, she had a long spoon in her hand and unless she cooking with it, it has to be for hitting me, I'd better not get too close though.

"I was picking up the nails at the beach, the warriors party is tomorrow, so I thought some cleaning would do!", I lied and sure I knew she didn't Believe me, "you just did that to avoid working, get over here and take the food for the Zeta, she's very tired so don't piss her off like last time!", Madam Pika said and i hurried to take the tray containing the Zeta's food, I avoided the spoon but she wasn't hitting me with it.

I raced upstairs and the incident from a week ago suddenly flashed in my head, I had gone to serve the beta's food as usual when she poured the food on my head for stepping on her shoes by mistake, we got into a fight and I beat her to a pulp, it was embarrassing for her.

But the worst happened as I was forced by my father to go and apologize to her in the presence of the whole clan, in the process of doing it, she hit me continuously and I had no choice but to hold back, but in the last hit, I couldn't take it anymore and a normal kick sent her flying in the air.

I guess this caught the attention of the new lead Beta, Liam, my crush, been crushing on him since the day I met him, he called me to his office and offered to give me free teaching on how to protect myself without my wolf, It was an opportunity for me and it felt really good, but he hasn't given me a call since then, so I probably thought he changed his mind.

I walked to the door and knocked twice, there was no reply so I just pushed it open, and I couldn't believe what I saw, Linda was hugging Liam, but for real they seemed to match, beta to Zeta, but Linda has a boyfriend!, And the worst thing is, I Know she intentionally did it, since she was bent on making my life miserable and since she found out I was crushing on Liam, it was a great idea for her, I guess.

"What are you doing?", Liam said and pushed her away slightly, they noticed my presence and was somehow startled, "oh hey!", Liam said and I just bowed slightly, "can't you reply?", Linda said and I felt like punching her in the jaws but what can I do, I have been warned by my father not to talk back at her and obey her or he would send me packing.

I glared at her for a while and sighed, "hi", I replied and Liam just smiled cutely, but of course he was, his bright blue eyes made him look like a god and his face had a majestic figure that makes you want to have him, the moment you see him, he has a rosy smell, and that kind of made him get a lot of attention.

"Your dinner", I said placing the tray of food on the large resin table beside her bed as I opened the food, "what is that?" Linda asked pointing at the steak, and it was annoying once again, she is staring at a steak and is asking me what it is?, I felt like killing her that instant but once again, what can I do?.

"It's Steak, citrus beet, Arugala salad and halluomi Croutons", I said giving her every little details of the steak, "and what's that?", She said pointing at the wine and she really was pissing me off, but what can I do?.

"Linda that's enough", Liam said and Linda frowned, "why are you taking her side in this?, Do you like her?", Linda asked and at that moment I hoped he would say yes, "she's your sister you shouldn't treat her like that", Liam said avoiding the question, "answer me!", Linda said and he frowned,"no you do not order me", Liam said and I really wanted to get out of trouble, "it's Chateau Lafite Rothschild", I said and turned walking away slowly.

Screw them all and fuck them haters, how dare she look down on me?, Who does she think she is?, A God?,how hilarious, to me she's nothing but an overconfident useless beta.

"Finda", Liam mistaked my name and came from behind me standing in front of me, "its Fiona", I said and he sighed looking apologetic, "I'm sorry about earlier", he said and I was confused, "about what?", I asked and he sighed again putting me in a tight spot, "about what you saw when you came in, it's not what you think, for real, there's nothing between both of us, we are just friends, and she has the habit of hugging me and I don't like it, I don't know how to explain it but,...... it's not what you think", he said and for real I tried to believe him but at least I had to hide my feelings, "why are you telling me that?, What has that got to do with me?, Are you scared that I might tell everyone?, I'm not a snitch, you don't have to worry about what I think, and I think it's better if we keep a safe distance, getting too close might not be a good idea", I said and his expression said it all, he felt offended but I said it anyway.

He opened his mouth to say something but ended up closing it back without saying a word,"if you have nothing else to say, I would call that the end of our conversation, I will take my leave", I said and walked downstairs with a concerning look.

Was I too harsh?, Should I have taken it slowly on him?, Or maybe I hurt him?, Whatever, I don't care, I just have to stay away from all of them and I'll be just fine.
