The Alpha’s Untamed Beast is

~Lyra POV

I had my face pressed against the wooden door and I held onto my dress. My heart raced as I was eager to hear the conversation that came from the other side of the door.

Earlier that morning, I heard that my father the alpha of the silver moon pack was having a meeting with the high ranked wolves and….it had something to do with me.

I knew whenever the meeting was about me, it never ended well. It would either end with a fight or my father beating someone up. Gradually, the rumors about how protective my father was about me began to spread and they started saying things against him.

They said I wasn't worth the stress…because I was HUMAN. Unlike my father who happened to be an alpha, I was just a human always wandering around the village with nothing good to offer. No one needed to tell me before I knew that they all didn't want me around.

They said I would end up bringing humans who would take over the village and destroy them.

No matter how hard father tried….they didn't believe I wouldn't betray the pack.

“We can no longer keep Lyra among us,” someone said. I recognized that voice and it belonged to no one else but Beta Bryce. He hated me the most. I could tell from his cold voice.

“And what is that supposed to mean?” Father asked.

“It's either she dies or she leaves the village completely,” Beta Bryce added and my heart hit my chest. They would only tell my father that I was being a burden, but never had they said anything about me having to leave.

I had no where to go and they knew it.

“Where is all of this coming from? Do you realize that Lyra is my daughter?” Father reminded.

“Alpha Lord, Lyra has nothing to offer the pack!”

“She is still my daughter!”

“Lord, Lyra is nothing but a burden. All she does is bring down the pack one way or the other. Our soilders would be more effective if they do not always have to keep an eye on her!” someone else said and I had tears streaming down my face.

“The ineffectiveness of the soilders has nothing to do with Lyra being protected!” Father sneered.

“Lord, only if you chose to ignore it. We all know that Lyra is nothing but a waste of resources. We all know that protecting her is nothing but a waste of time. She's just going to die off one day like every other human, without a purpose or any use for us!”

“Do not call my daughter, useless!” Father growled and I could sense the anger in his voice.

“The pack is gradually going weak, Lord. Maybe is she were a wolf we would have married her to one of the alpha's son in another village and with allies, our pack would be stronger,” beta Bruce said and…he was right.

“What if she were a son? Then would you still marry her off to one of those sons?” Father defended.

“At least you would have a child that would continue your legacy. Your name and bloodline wouldn't vanish after your death.”

“Lyra would get married when the time comes!” Father seethed.

“No one is willing to marry Lyra. They say she's weak and she has nothing to offer them. Not even the omegas. From our own village are willing to get married to her. We cannot afford being weighed down because of her, your highness. She has to go,” Beta Ryder said.

I held my mouth, preventing myself from making a sound as I cried. At that point, I wished I had not come to listen to their conversation.

I asked my father why I wasn't married yet, but he told me that he was the one rejecting all the men because they weren't good enough for me. I didn't know I was the one who was being rejected.

If he had just told me the truth, it wouldn't hurt this much.

“Do not talk to me with such disrespect, Bryce just because my daughter is not like us!” Father yelled.

“All of this wouldn't be happening if you hadn't married her mother in the first place. Everyone tried to convince you but you didn't listen, saying your child would be one of us…but there she is. She's nothing but a weak and helpless human!” Beta Ryder persisted.

“Do not talk about her mother! She died for your sake! She died because of all of you!” Father yelled.

I heard beta Ryder's scoff. “she didn't die because she tried to stop the curse. She died because was too weak to handle the stone,” Beta Ryder reminded.

Father was silent.

I could tell that those words hurt him.

He told me my mother died because of a stone that's as said to have placed curses on the people in the village. She died trying to eliminate the stone and instead of appreciating her, they said she died because she was weak.

“My daughter remains with us. She must be protected and she must be adored because she is my daughter!”

“I am afraid Lord but the decision has been made. I guess you understand what that means,” Alpha Ryder said.

Better than anyone else, I understood what that meant. Father was indirectly being threatened. Everyone knew how strong Beta Ryder was and the only reason he still remained humble to my father was because my father helped him while they were younger.

I knew if Beta Ryder tried to overthrow my father because of me, he would have everyone else on his side and my father's chances of keeping his position would be slim.

“I'll find something to do about it,” Father said.

I ran back to my room and buried my head into my pillow. My heart ached as what I had just heard ran through my mind. My father was scared of losing his position and I knew what that meant.

I would be forced to leave the pack.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Loud knocks landed on my door.

“Come in,” I answered, trying to wipe my tears, thinking it was one of the maids but I was wrong. It was my father.

I couldn't hide it. “what have you come to tell me? That I should leave the pack as soon as I can?” I asked and father came to hold my hand.

“No, Lyra. I have come to tell you that you would be getting married.” He answered.
