Chapter two
Keisha’s pov
Going to my window and jumping down carefully I go behind a tree, take off my clothes focusing my mind on shifting. I have to take off my clothes cause only the Alpha’s Lina’s and Beta’s can shift with their clothes on without tearing them and shift back with their clothes on. As I focus my mind on shifting I hear the familiar feeling of my bones cracking and reforming and I’m on all fours as I let Due take control as she dashes through the woods feeling the cool breeze on her fur and the earthly smell of the woods.
Due feeling happy to be set out running with pure bliss and ecstasy crushing every twig under her paws leaping over every adventitious root running her best feeling the moment. I have never felt this happy and free in a long time doing whatever I want and I don’t for how long it will last and when next I will I’ll feel this euphoria.
“Just be happy and free now feel the warm and earthly feeling of the woods be carefree let every pain wash away for a while before going back cause I know this is worth being happy I’ll always be with you no matter what Keisha.”
Thanks Due your the best I don’t know what I’ll do without you. You always keep me going when I want to just hide and cry.
“Anytime Keisha you will never be alone.”
Running so fast I can hear the roaring sound of the river running closer to it the view was very beautiful. Due and I both steer in awe, we sat mesmerized by the beautiful sight infront of us and loosing track of time.
Shit Due we have to I head back home now uncle must be back and looking for us I said in a panic voice while Due gets up taking off to the pack house. Oh dear lord I must be in so much trouble, one of the rule states that i should never leave the house and I never did and now I have messed any other opportunity of going out because I lost track of time.
“Hold on Keisha we’ll be there in no time and remember you’re not alone no matter what uncle does I’ll be with you. I’m sorry I lost track of time I just felt so happy and free to be let out still really been a long time I was really dying to be out and run free without caring and I forgot about the consequences if we don’t make it home in time without anyone knowing we snuck out I’m really sorry Keisha.”
It’s not your fault Due I also felt happy and free tho it ended too soon and because I felt so happy I lost track of time too let’s just hope uncle isn’t back yet already. Sensing this night is going to be a very very long night.
Reaching the tree I shifted back I took my clothes and put them on then I went straight to my window. I stood by the tree infront of my window, climbing up the tree I climbed unto my window entering my room and greeted with the harsh voice of my uncle oh moongoddess safe me this night from my uncle’s wrath or I’m doomed but who am I kidding?
“Wow I never took you to be an athlete climbing and jumping through trees and your window”
“You slut you aren’t allowed to leave this house and you had the nerves to sneak out huh, where did you go to?”
He screamed in my face, shaking in total fear. I was about to speak when his hard and rough hands collided with my face not once, not twice, it wasn't enough for him. He pushed me into the bed and drew out his belt. I saw the rage and hatred in his eyes but just didn’t want to give him the satisfaction he wanted from doing this. He then raised up his hands with his belt in them and all I could feel were the slashes on my back from the belt. It stung so bad but I knew I had to be strong and not show any sign of weakness at all.
He kept on going and going I felt like I was losing my flesh to his belt at this time but I remained strong. It really hurt so bad.
Hearing my room door close I walked to the bathroom turning on the shower. I slide on my wall and let everything out. I was hurting. I was in so much pain my whole body throbbing. I am so sure I had a broken rib with all the punching and kicking directed to my face and ribs.
I burst into tears so rapidly. My bathroom was my comfort zone. I couldn't let anyone see me crying, not at all. I cried out my soul because of the pain and anguish I felt. It hurts to be treated so bad it really does. It always makes me start hating myself and questioning what reason and purpose I was still living.
After washing up and cleaning myself I went straight for my wardrobe and grabbed my black hoodie and leggings. I put them on and I headed straight for the kitchen because I am to join the fellow maids to help prepare dinner. Whilst in the kitchen preparing dinner with the other maids I start hearing side talks and getting eye contacts from most of them. I immediately feel sad and regret ever being born into this world. I’ve never been appreciated or shown love im always being gossiped about. I was happy we actually got to finish preparing dinner early today so I could head back into my room and have some rest because I was pretty tired and weak at this point and you could tell just by looking at me. I cleaned up the whole kitchen and then went straight up into my room to have some rest.
Chapter threeKeisha’s povI 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

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

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
Chapter Seven Keisha's Pov Sophia looks at me expectantly, waiting for me to tell her my news. While I grinned I said, "Adrian just asked me out on a date! Can you help me get ready?" 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.

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.

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
