Rose POV

By the time I finished getting everything cleaned up and put away, it was around 2 am and I am completely drained. I don't know how much more my body can take of this. The only good thing that happened today was I wasn't beaten. It is only because other alphas are visiting and most of them do not believe in abusing and enslaving other pack members. It's almost like their visit is giving me a break my body very much needs.

About 70 years ago, the views and opinions of alphas started to change regarding the treatment and enslavement of lower rank pack members. With each new generation of alphas, the lower-ranking pack members started to gain more rights and freedom. Now they are almost as equally respected as the high-ranking members. My pack was changing until Maximus became alpha. The omegas of the pack don't get treated as badly as I do, but they still get treated pretty badly like, being shoved around, called names, and a few beatings here and there.

Walking sent a hot, stabbing pain into all of my bones as I walked to my bedroom to get a little sleep before I had to get up at 4 am. I was counting the steps to my room to lay down when I was hit with the most mouthwatering smell I have ever smelt, pine trees, and freshwater from a creek. Maybe the luna got a new spray to impress the visitors, but I don't care, I just want to go to bed. My eyelids are too heavy to keep open let alone investigate this delicious smell.

When the door to my room came into sight I couldn't help but run the best I could to the door. All I wanted was to be locked in my safe space for the next few hours. I quickly run my fingers through my hair, as I don't have a hairbrush, and changed into the sack that I have made into PJs and laid down. That's when I heard the sound of a lock being secured. Alpha Maximus is afraid that I will run away in the middle of the night so he had a padlock put on my door so once I'm in for the night I can't get out. But nothing is worse than being a rogue, you will be killed on sight if another pack sees you.

You become a rogue once you are banished from your pack. You can ask another pack to become a member, but it has to be within two weeks of being banished. After two weeks your wolf starts to become weak and go mad from not being a part of a pack. Your wolf is at its strongest when in a pack. After two months you can no longer form a thought. Your wolf will be fur and bones with matted, dirty fur. You will no longer be able to shift back into your human form and will attack everything you come in contact with. The aggression will get worse until someone puts you down and sets you free.

I laid in bed that night waiting for sleep to consume me, but it never did. All I kept thinking about was the scent that I came across coming to my room. When I looked at the old alarm clock in my room and saw the time, I knew it was my birthday and that only meant one thing. The scent I picked up was that of my mates. I never thought this moment would come.

What if he rejects me? I don't think my body would be able to handle being rejected, I believe it will kill me. I would rather be dead than live with the fact of knowing my mate didn't want someone as worthless and pathetic as me. I can't be the person he wants me to be. My mate has to be someone from another pack, pack members have been in and out of the packhouse all day and their lingering scent isn't the mouthwatering scent I picked up on. My alpha and pack will definitely talk him into rejecting me.

I know I'm not the picture-perfect mate, I'm too thin and pale. I'm scared of everything and I learned a long time ago to never speak. With my lack of education, my whole body including my face riddled with scars. My back is the worst, I have raised, angry scars all over my back. There is not one clear spot on my back, or on the back of my thighs and butt cheeks. Now I'm laying here preparing myself for death tomorrow as sleep finally consumed me. I woke up the next morning before my alarm to being kicked in the stomach and punched in the face by alpha Maximus. He gripped my jaw really tight while keeping my mouth shut just in case I cried out but I won't give him the satisfaction of knowing how much pain he caused.

"Your duties start early today and you are late. I will be punishing you tonight for making our guest wait on your pathetic existence. They better not be disappointed in their meals today or your punishment when everyone leaves will result in a long and extremely painful death. Do I make myself clear?" He asked as he stared me in the eyes with a deadly glint in his eyes. 

I nodded my head yes and he released my face and left my room. Once I knew he was far from my room, I very quickly got out of bed and put on my normal, brown, and itchy potato sack of a dress and ran to the kitchen to start breakfast, and quickly got to work. By 6:30 am I had eggs, bacon, toast, pancakes, and sausage cooked and set out like a buffet. Next, I went into the pantry to retrieve the different types of juice we had and started putting them into pitchers when the scent I caught last night hit me and made my heart stop for a split second. My hands began to sweat as a felt a presence behind me, too scared to turn around.

"How long have you been awake and cooking? By the looks of it, it looks like you started at 3 in the morning." The mystery man spoke with evidence in his voice he was trying to break the ice.

I knew better and knew I had to watch what I say or else I would pay the price for even the smallest slip-up. I'm not even supposed to talk to anyone, especially guests.

"Not long" Was all I said to him and afraid it was too much already. But I could feel the alpha aura pouring off of him and started praying I wasn't being rude.

"Playing hard to get I see?" He chuckled.

I ignored him and went back to getting the juice set out. Thankfully last night I went already and got almost everything set out so I wouldn't be running around like a made man this morning trying to get everything done. The smell was making my stomach growl, I hope he doesn't hear it. Once I have everything set out, I figured it was safe to speak.

"Sir, breakfast is ready, would you like me to make your plate for you?" I asked in the most polite way I could.

"I can make my own plate but thank you. Is that what you wear when you cook or is that the only clothing you own?" He asked with a look in his eyes to not lie to him but I had to, I didn't want to die even though my life is so horrible.

"No sir." Was all I could manage to get out of my mouth.

"You're lying to me. They smell like they haven't been properly washed and it is obvious that was made from the sack that potatoes come in, actually that's the company I get them from." The tone in his voice made me shiver with fear. Not of him but what my alpha was going to do if he brought this up to him.

"I have to go get ready for the day sir if you'll excuse me." I spoke softly and with respect bowed to him and took my leave.

Once I was out of the kitchen, I let out the breath that I hadn't realized I was holding. What just happened in there? Everyone is cruel to me but yet he had a softness towards me. It's probably the mate bond it's impossible to fight. Who am I kidding, he would never accept me. Just as I was about to open my bedroom door, a large and grabbed my arm and spun me around and pushed me against the wall and I instantly covered my head. The puzzled look on his face did not go unnoticed by me.

"Is there something wrong with breakfast sir? I can made you something else if you would like?" I was praying to the moon goddess that he wouldn't say anything to how i reacted to him.

"No, it was fantastic! I wanted to thank you and talk to you. I know you feel the mate bond, and I…" I cut him off before he could finish and ran straight to my room. I could not face the fact that he was going to reject me so I hid in my room until I could no longer smell his scent. I know at some point I am going to have to face the rejection but not today, not the day of my birthday.

    Rose POV The shocked expression on the leader's face had me laughing internally, but I didn’t let him see that. Jewels stayed in her defensive stance while also watching all of her surroundings, making sure no one was trying to sneak up on us. We let out a menacing growl that shook the ground we all were standing on. I watched as his men lost their balance and fell to the ground while all of our warriors were standing perfectly still. The humans and warriors looked around frantically trying to piece together what was happening around them. It didn’t take long for my warriors to realize that it was me causing the ground to shake as they all got down on their knees, submitting to me. That’s when I discovered I have an alpha aura, a strong one at that. As soon as the leader finally put it together, his head snapped in my direction. “What in the fuck are you?” He spat out at me, his words filled with venom. I responded to him with another growl, bearing my teeth. I watched his jaw cle

  • Their Hybrid's Revenge   Chapter 64

    Rose POV I thought shifting into Jewels and running through the woods was exhilarating, soaring through the sky as Aria is soul-freeing. For the first time since I started to hear and feel Jewels and Aria, all three of us were calm and felt a sense of peace. Our mind was clear, the only thing we were thinking about is how amazing the wind feels gliding against our scales and wings. The flapping of our wings almost sounds like gentle thuds of thunder as a storm is rolling in. Never in my 18 years of life have I felt free. At this moment there is not a single worry on my shoulders. Nothing matters other than the open sky surrounding us. I let Aria have full control since this is her first time out and we haven't talked and bonded nearly as much as Jewels and I. Happiness seeped into my heart at how content Aria was in the sky, it was her home. I nudged Aria to look down at the ground and I was blown away. The view from up here is incredible! All the trees below, even the ones that

    Rose POVOn the walk back to the packhouse everyone was chatting amoungst themselves and I hung back listening the sounds of the other creatures of the night. So much has happened in such a short amount of time and I was starting to feel overwhelmed. How the hell am I supposed to be the Moon Goddess when I can't even get a single night alone with my mates without something happening?I'm supposed to be the Luna and Beta Female of the Moonlight Pack and I haven't been introduced to the pack. A part of me felt like Damien was ashamed of me and being ashamed of being mated to slave. But another part of me knew that wasn't true, ever since they found me it has either been Alpha Maximus was sending witches and rogues to kill me, I craved up myself in some trance that I still don't understand, and now I'm the freaking Moon Goddess. We haven't had the chance to breathe, let alone plan a ceramony to annouce their pack finally has a Luna. I bounced back to the conversation between Damien and

    Rose POV “That’s what mates are supposed to do. They put you back together and make you whole again.” Seline said warmly. “And that’s the problem.” I whispered. “How is that a problem?” Seline asked confused. “The supernatural world isn’t as evolved as the human world. My ancestors were hunted down like prey and killed, they will come for me. Not to mention I’m a hybrid and everyone fears them. They made me whole again and now I have to break myself all over again.” I mumbled. “I’m not following. Why do you have to break yourself again?” Seline questioned. “Because I have to go live in the Moon realm or I will be killed if I stay here.” I snapped at her. I wanted to feel bad for snapping at her but it’s true. As soon as everyone finds out who I am and what I am they will hunt me down like a hog and slaughter me like one. I can’t make any change or bring everyone together if I am dead. Maybe after a few years of secluding myself from everyone, they will have warmed up to the id

    Rose POV“What do you mean I brought you back?” I asked her confused and afraid of myself now. “When I died, you became the Moon Goddess. You have all of my magic and yours, your grief restored my life.” Seline said.“I can’t be the Moon Goddess! I have only ever shifted into my wolf one time! I haven’t even shifted into Aria yet! And I’m a hybrid, I can’t be the Moon Goddess! No one will ever respect my or pray to me because of what I am! How could you do this to me?” I screamed.So much was running through my head I can’t keep a single thought straight. There are very few creatures that are accepting of hybrid’s. The second they find out what I am, they will hunt me down and kill me. I’ll never be able to leave Seline’s, well now mine, realm. Oh, and we have to add on the fact of my dragon heritage that is going to make people want to kill me even more.“Rose, take a couple deep breath’s for me.” Seline said. I was too lost in my head to see or feel how close she was and her hands o

  • Their Hybrid's Revenge   Chapter 60

    Rose POV Just before Alpha Maximus's wolf collided with us, both Jackson and Damien shoved me backwards as hard as they could and I went flying backwards. I hit the ground, hard, and started tumbling until my back hit something. Pain started to radiate from my ribs deep into my chest. It felt like I couldn't breathe. The whole time while I was flying and rolling, all I could hear through the once silent night was the tearing of clothes from my mates shifting, snarling and the snapping of jaws. One noise really stood out to me, it was the thunderous sound of wolves colliding with one another.I laid there with my back still against the tree as I tried to catch my breath and waited for the feeling in my legs to return. "Why am I not healing as fast I should be?" I screamed in my head so my mates weren't distracted by my yelling. I laid there trying to fight the urge to go to sleep. "My poor child." Seline said as she ran the back of her fingers against my cheek. "Seline?" I stutte
