"Was it because my mother wasn't the Luna? Even though she wasn't the Luna, it wasn't her fault that the Alpha forced himself on her" I added but was smacked hard on the mouth.
My lips broke and I tasted my own blood which tasted metallic.
"Shut up your mouth, you wench, you should be getting your frail body ready to receive your punishment and not spit out rubbish from your mouth," the guard holding me roared hitting my back and sending pain down my spine.
They got to the torture room and tossed me on the hard floor, I groaned in pains as my butt hit the floor
They all got ahold of a long whip and I whimpered on seeing the whip and shifted back trying to get away from them but what strength do I have to fight against three hefty men? I must be a very big joker.
I closed my eyes as I waited for the pain to tear through me but instead of feeling pain, I felt something else.
I felt cold, numb as it felt as though a bucket of ice was poured on me.
I jerked and my eyes fluttered open to behold the face of Maya staring daggers at me with an empty bucket in her hand.
"Why are you still asleep by this time of the day you dirty scumbag" she yelled kicking my butt hard.
"I'm sorry Maya, I overslept, do not be offended" I pleaded and stood up from my little wrapper of comfort which I sleep with.
"I give you 2 sec to get to my room and fix my nails for me" she screeched and stomped out of the room throwing the bucket at me which I dodged but was unfortunate as it landed on my left leg leaving a bruise which produced little blood.
I wiped off the blood with my palm and rubbed my palm together to get rid of the blood stain.
I sighed and stood up, I guess my mother was already up and doing many chores and I know she didn't wake me because she wanted me to sleep some more considering that I went to bed at the wee hours of the morning.
I can't believe all the beating and boldness were all in a dream, none of that happened and I'm hurt to know I didn't actually inflicted injury on Maya.
This is my sad reality and I can't even talk back at them no matter what they do to me not to talk of beating anyone. The alpha would just fry me alive if I should do such.
I wonder when I'll be able to speak out but even if I do, no one would listen or even care rather I'll be getting more abused.
They all hated me and my mother and as long as the white moon pack is concerned, I would always remain nothing but a piece of trash and garbage who was birthed by a slut woman to them.
I gently folded the worn-out wrapper which my mother gave me and which I have been using as a bed.
My mother and I sleep in the dark attic which was used as the pack's storage room where they park whatever wasn't useful to them.
The little space left there was where my mother and I lay to sleep every night and this was what I grew up to.
I kept the wrapper in my bag and combed my always tangled hair with my hands before rushing out of the room to Maya's.
I got out of the attic and climbed down the little stairs that led to the main house and just as I got in, I bumped into Madison the second daughter.
"Hey watch it, are you crazy?" She yelled pushing me aside. I staggered and balanced my weight to avoid falling.
Madison rarely talks, she's always by herself but that doesn't in anyway mean she's good.
She does not bully me like her sister's but she doesn't like me either. I've only heard her speak for few times. Not even to her sisters.
She's always confined in the corners of her room pressing her phone.
"I'm sorry" I muttered not wanting to further delay my going to Maya's room. Madison rolled her eyes and continued walking.
Looking at the cup of coffee in her hands, I could tell she came to get food and retire to her room, she's the only one among all that doesn't wait for me to bring her things.
It's 3 mins now and Maya only gave me 2 seconds which she knew was impossible to get to her room. I know she's just looking for an excuse to hit me.
"You should be" Madison sneered and entered her room.
"Hmmph! I heaved and hastened my footstep until I got to Maya's door.
Taking few breathes, I knocked on her door and waited for her response.
"Come in" I heard and pushed the door open.
"You are 4 mins 8secs late Zendaya" she rasped and I scoffed inwardly.
I kept quiet and stare at my legs while I wait for her order.
"Get my nails done," she said with a grunt.
I raised my head to see her rolling her eyes, ignoring her attitude, I walked over to her dressing table to get her nail equipment.
Growing up and doing everything I'm being asked to do made me learn a whole lot of things and now, I could boost of designing a perfect nail with polish.
I squat and she stretched her hands to me which I took and started applying the Polish on her nails.
"What are you doing? Applying this dull color on me, are you out of your senses?" She shrieked withdrawing her hands and glaring at me.
"But the color looks really beautiful," I said in a low sigh and Maya rolled her eyes.
"What do you know about fashion? How dare you lecture me on the color that suits me and the one that doesn't? What do you know" she mocked sneering.
I stared at her and shook my head. I picked another color that I thought would be too bright for her but since that was what she wanted then I'll apply it to her. "Do not waste my time, do that fast and polish my shoes" she sneered, glaring at me. I simply nodded and started polishing her nails as fast and neat as I could. Few minutes in, the door opened and Anna, the last daughter of the Luna walked into the room smiling widely but immediately her eyes met with mine, her smiles vanished and was replaced with a scowl. "Why are you mopping at me, do you want to bewitch me or haven't you seen a beautiful lady in your life before?" She snickered and I simply lowered my head not wanting to say a word to her not like I have anything to say unless I want to be punished. "I want my hair fixed and my toenails too and I think mother also wants hers fixed so you better be fast ab
"I do not have any money to use and replace the Polish, please forgive me" I begged to kneel. "You should have thought of that when you decided to act clumsy and ruin my newly gotten expensive and designer polish," Maya said not sparing me a glance. "We all know you have never touched money with your hands because your bitchy mother who thought she could reap from where she did not sow could never provide it for you, you will have to starve for two days," Anna said smirking. I nodded my head hastily and they both roll their eyes. "Be fast with this and get out of here" Maya said and picked up her phone I haven't even had anything to eat since yesterday and starving had already became a part of me that I no longer bother about food. As long as they keep my mother out of this and not go about calling her names, I wou
"Liar!" She exclaimed hitting my head then snatching the plate from my hand. She smelled the plate and busted out laughing. "You are such a lame thief and a liar. I have always known you were a petty criminal and I have waited to catch you red-handed in the act and now that I have, you are doomed" she muttered with a smirk. "I did not steal the food and this is also my father's house" I mumbled in a low tone which was supposed to be inaudible to her but she obviously heard it due to her wolf's hearing ability and next, a stinging slap landed on my cheek. "You had it when it isn't time for you to, doesn't that make you a thief? And I'm sure your sl*tty mother gave it to you or did you steal it yourself?" She asked and my blood ran hot immediately she called my mother sl*tty but I managed to calm down. There's nothing I could do anyway and even if I try to do anything, it would be putting me and my mother into more pains and sufferings. "Do not
"It's nothing Maya" I muttered and she scoffed pulling me out and turning my back forcefully to reveal the plate. "Tsk! She chuckled deadly, her brows rising in scorn. She smirked and clapped her hands in a mockery manner. "You stole our food didn't you?" She asked, her eyes snapping wickedly. "I didn't steal the food, It was Just a used plate which was in our room that I decided to bring to the kitchen" I lied. I would never tell them my mother gave me the food because I do not want my mother going through any punishment because of me. "Oh really? How convincing is that? Do you think I'm daft not to know this plate was just used?" She asked and I swallowed and kept quiet. You are ready shameless and stupid. I can't believe you steal food Zendaya" she scorned. "I didn't steal the food and
Her eyes met with mine and she gave me a reassuring smile. Behind those smiles, I could see the hidden pains. I could see the broken heart she was trying to mask with her smiles. I blinked away the tears on my eyes and wiped them off with my shoulder as my hands were tied to the pole. "We heard from Maya that you stole food from the kitchen, did you do that?" The Alpha's cruel voice rang out. No need to deny anything because it makes no sense and would change nothing. They would still give me punishments whether I deny or accept and denying would make it worse so I just nodded my head in affirmation. "You have no fear to go into my household kitchen and steal food from my pot, how dare you?" The Luna yelled as her hot palm collided with my face. The pain stung me hard and I bite on my inner cheek to hold it in and prevent myself from crying.
"You better be fast with that, I want my hair looking breathtaking else you will be in big trouble," Madison said to me as I style her hair. I simply ignored her rants and continued with brushing her extension. The week had been a rollercoaster of emotion for me but thanks to the goddess, I came out alive after the hell of punishment been melted out to me. I had just finished working at the construction site and was finally given food after seven days of starvation and torture. I couldn't even count how many times I collapsed. I was on my way to our tiny room to rest and see how my mother had been doing when Madison called me to style her hair. I wanted to decline but I just couldn't, I had to follow her into her room. "Maddy guess what?" Anna yelled from outside coming into the room with a big smile plastered on her face.
~~~XANDER~~~ On getting down from the plane and looking around in search of the guards my mother sent to pick me up from the airport, I finally spotted them coming towards me in a haste. I sighed in frustration as they got to me and prostrated in greetings. This place sucks and this people too. I began walking to the car ignoring their greetings as they followed behind with my luggages. On getting to the Maybach packed few meters away from where I stood before, one of the guard opened the car door and I got into the back sit. The car reversed and drove out of the airport into the streets of my pack. Staring out of the windows, reminds me so much of the time I was here. Those times I enjoyed being here but now, mere looking at these Street makes me want to puke. I brought out my headse
The doctor took his gaze to the floor and nodded making me sprang up to my feet. "What nonsense are you talking about? That the lady I brought here myself has disappeared?" I asked turning to the nurse and trying to understand what she meant. "I'm afraid yes. I went to check on how she's doing and administer drugs to her but found the bed empty. I also went into the bathroom thinking she went to ease herself but it was also empty. I searched around the whole ward but couldn't find her" the nurse said and I chuckled, the whole thing sounding off to me. How possible could that be, if the said she was too weak from the abuse she went through, then how on earth would she be able to get up from the bed and leave the hospital on her own and does it mean nobody saw her leaving or what? "You both must really be kidding me because I do
