Chapter three
Keisha’s pov
I woke up to the ray of the sun shining in through my window, groaning as I got up to do my morning business. I first had to ease myself because my bladder was really full. I stand up from my bed and head to my bathroom sluggishly. I feel so tired. I get into the toilet and sit on it. I ease myself and then clean up and head to the shank to get my teeth brushed. I then look into the mirror and stare at my reflection for a bit. I look really sad but despite that I wanted to be happy for today. I then finish brushing my teeth and head into the shower to take my bath. I put on the shower, let it run for sometime then I jumped in.
I then step out of the shower dripping wet. I then reached out for my towel and dried my body then wrapped it around me. I then step out of the bathroom and head towards my makeover table. I took out my body lotion and applied it on my body gently. I could see lots of scars but I really didn’t want to care about it. I then checked my time and I was already late. I hurriedly put on my hoodie and sweatpants and hurriedly headed for the kitchen to join the other maids in preparing breakfast.
On my way to the kitchen I remember that it’s just two days to the moonlight eclipse ball. This makes me so happy and excited because according to due I’ll definitely find my mate and he will save us from this hell hole of a place.
Arriving at the kitchen I smile to myself and begin cooking. I decided to make scrambled eggs on toast for the Alpha, Luna and also all the pack members and for me I made marmite on toast which I will eat in my room. I’ve never been allowed to sit in the dining room. My uncle will never let that happen.
I think they could smell the food and one by one they began to come downstairs. Eventually they were all downstairs, Ann and Christy two of the maids came to serve them while I dished. Once served they all began to eat.
“So are you excited for the moonlight eclipse ball” the pack slut Hannah asked one of her minions, “oh my gosh yeah! We are so excited” all her minions answered. I really dislike Hannah. She's the queen bee and the pack slut and thinks highly of herself and for her minions they have no mind of their own, always doing what Hannah says and it’s quite funny.
I take my food to my room to go eat. I'm so happy cause I won’t be seeing my uncle today. When I’m done eating I’ve to go meet the Luna do get her dress ready, this is going to be fun.
Going to Luna's room, the dressmaker has come already. She takes the measurements of Luna while I sit down observing what the dressmaker is doing.
“Keisha come here my love, sit so Lee(the dressmaker) can take your measurements aren’t you going for the ball? It's in 3 days.”
I go over to sit close to the Luna and while screaming in my head I’ve been thinking of what to wear to the ball that’s in 3 days cause all I have are sweatpants and sweatshirts only, and the Luna is paying for my dress I’m going to look so beautiful thank you moon goddess I don’t know what I would have worn to the ball.
Coming back from my thoughts the dressmaker has already finished taking my measurements. Thanking the Luna I head straight for my room.
“I can’t wait for the ball it’s going to be so fun and we are going to be saved and taken away from here by our mate”
I can’t wait too. I just hope everything works for us Due, I just want to leave this place by all means. I know I won’t exactly warm up to our mate because of everything but I hope eventually I can trust other people.
“I understand Keisha I’ll always be here for you no matter what and I know you’ll conquer every obstacle.”
Thanks Due let’s go to bed, I’ll talk to you tomorrow okay.Goodnight Due.
“Goodnight Keisha.”

It’s the day of the moonlight eclipse ball, the day that everyone has been waiting for and it has finally arrived. Everyone is preparing while I’m cooking the dishes for later tonight. I haven’t since uncle for three days. I don't know if it’s a bad thing or a good thing. I'm just trying to stay positive.
I’m finally done with the cooking and preparation of the foods I’m on my way to go dress up. I’m not a fan of makeup so I’m just going to put on a little bit of mascara and a little bit of pink lipgloss with blush. Looking at myself in the mirror I don’t look bad at all, I walk to my closet to get the dress the Luna had the dressmaker sew for me “oh my gosh it is so adorable”
I’ve never owned something like this before.
Putting on my dress I walked to the mirror to take a look at myself, I almost cried looking at myself. I haven't looked this beautiful since my parents died. The dress is so elegant and beautiful it makes me look like a princess.
“You look extraordinarily beautiful Keisha, there’s nobody that will see you and won’t stare at you and drool.”
Thanks so much. Due I feel very different. I wish mom and dad were here to see me and take a picture of me for memories.”
“You know they are looking at us from wherever they are and smiling proudly at us. Don’t forget that we will forever be in their hearts and they are proud of us.
Thanks Due I will never forget that.
Preparing to leave my room for the ball but someone beat me to opening my room door.
Chapter Four Keisha's Pov "Where do you think you are going ?" my uncle said coming into my room. So you think I will let you go for the ball you worthless thing so you'll disgrace me, aren't you ashamed of yourself, you really think there's a mate out there for you haha always delusional." No uncle I really know my mate is out there and you really have to let me go to the ball. Due forced me to say. "You whore who asked you to talk back at me" my uncle said accompanied with his hands colliding with my cheeks, as tears rolled down my eyes he took a scissors and ripped my dress. "After the ball you are going to be punished tonight for disrespecting me" he said while locking the door from outside. I can't take it and I let the tears fall freely. What am I going to do now? He has completely ruined me and ruined my life, I still can't comprehend what he wants from me. Why can't he let me go? "I hate him, I hate him so much I have never liked him. If I have my ways I will rip him into

I'm not used to this kind of treatment and him yet and we are in the pack house sooner or later we have to meet with the whole pack members which I'm dreading so bad.

I have been wishing for a long time to find my mate and the moon goddess has blessed me with my mate and his sister, and I can't wait to spend some quality time with her. Sophia greets me with a warm smile and a hug, and we spend the next few hours chatting and laughing over coffee, Sophia telling me stories of when she and Adrian were little and all the funny things he did. "Here's one I can never forget. When Adrian and I were little, he was obsessed with superheroes. He spent hours running around the house in a cape, pretending to save the world. One day, One day our mom took him and i to the grocery store, and Adrian insisted on wearing his superhero costume. As we walked through the aisles, Adrian kept his eyes peeled for any signs of trouble. Suddenly, he spotted a man with a black ski mask over his face, and he knew he had to act fast. He charged at the man, ready to take him

Sophia's eyes widen in excitement as she exclaims, "Oh my gosh! Of course I'll help you get ready! This is so exciting!" Sophia helps me get ready by suggesting different outfits and hairstyles. We both have fun trying things on and taking pictures of my different looks. We even used Snapchat's Dress Up feature to try on virtual clothing and accessories. After much deliberation, we finally settled on the perfect outfit and hairstyle. I feel so confident and excited as I get ready to go on my first date ever and with my mate. Sophia suggests that I wear a light blue sundress with a pair of strappy sandals. She thinks that the dress will look great on your complexion and the sandals will make my legs look longer. She also suggests that I wear my hair in loose waves and put on some light makeup to
Chapter Eight Adrian’s Pov As I was going to my room, after taking Keisha to her’s, I thought about today. Though I had gone on a date twice, this one’s just so different from the others. Today was magical and my mate made it so perfect, she’s so perfect. As I stood outside her room as she hugged me. As I hugged her I leaned in,nuzzling into her neck, I was so close that she could feel my lips ghosting over her neck, and then I made a move and kissed her, I felt the mate bond, the shock running through my body and I know she felt it too it was the best I have had. I felt her hands clinged onto my jacket for support. I hummed slowly, sending shivers and vibration through her body. She pulled apart so she could get some oxygen into her system and I myself needed it, even though I didn’t want to stop, she smiled at me and said goodnight. As I was about drifting off to sleep with a content smile on my face, I heard a very loud scream coming from Keisha’s room, I think twice as I dash
Chapter NineKeisha’s Pov You know my parents died in an attack when they traveled, so my uncle took me in. The first few months were actually very nice, they were all nice to me and all of a sudden they all changed towards me and till now I have no idea why. They maltreated me, beat me up, took advantage of me and I was powerless.On this faithful day I went out running into the woods because Due needed to be let out she had been in for so long because I wasn’t allowed to go out at all or talk to anyone so this day we went running because uncle went out and we were going to be back before he got back, but I and Due got carried away by the beautiful view and lost track of time. once we realized that we had lost track of time, we ran straight back home.On reaching my room my uncle was there patiently waiting for me, as I climbed back into my bedroom from my window i was startled hearing his voice.“Wow I never took you to be an athlete climbing and jumping through trees and your wind
Keisha’s Pov I wanted to tell you but I was so scared and I knew if I told you, you’d want to go there and fight and I’m not ready yet to face any of them. I don’t think I’m strong yet but I know I will one day. I have lots of questions to ask, why did he treat me that way, did my parents hurt them or do something to them? Lots of questions just keep popping in my head but I’m not ready yet. I looked down, still feeling ashamed for not speaking up earlier. Adrian put his hand underneath my chin and lifted my face up to his. He looked at me with eyes full of love and understanding. "Keisha, you didn't have to be scared. You are safe now and I will always protect you," he said softly. I looked at Adrian and felt a sense of comfort and safety that I had never felt before. I knew that Adrian was the one for me. He had saved me from a life of misery, and had shown me that there was love and happiness in the world. As the days went by, I started to open up more to Adrian. I even told hi
Adrian’s POV I’m currently lying down in one of the hospital’s beds close to my precious mate, she lost a lot of blood and I’m currently transferring mine to her. I was so surprised that my blood matched hers. The doctor hasn’t been able to know what’s wrong with Keisha but she has been able to keep her stable. “Alpha, can you follow me to my office? I think I found something in her blood,” the doctor said, "okay after you I slowly got up from the bed, feeling a bit dizzy from the blood transfer. I follow the doctor to her office, my mind racing with worry for Keisha. What could be wrong with her? I can't bear the thought of losing her. Once we're in her office, the doctor pulls up Keisha's blood test results on her computer. I try to follow along, but the medical jargon is beyond me. "Alpha, it seems that Keisha has some sort of genetic mutation in her blood. It's unlike anything I've ever seen before," the doctor says, looking at me with a mix of curiosity and concern. "What doe
