Episode 1
Chapter 1 Skylar's POV My name is Skylar, I live in the Red River Pack and I am the Alpha's daughter.. A week ago, I turned 18, I was hoping I wouldn't find a mate, and thank god that I did not.. don't get me wrong, I would LOVE to find my mate and spend the rest of my life with him, I hope he is kind, caring, loving.. willing to care for me, protect me and most importantly.. get me the hell out of here.. A few words on my looks.. well most people find my appearance intriguing shall we say.. they find me odd more than intriguing.. I have long icy white hair, it's not grey or something, it's pure white, like ice or snow, I don't dye it, I was born this way, I have blue eyes but there's also green in them so you could say it's blue-green, I am also pretty tall, I am 5'11. thank god for my genes I suppose :).. but the problem is... I look nothing like my parents.. Alpha Aaron and Luna Eva are my parents, well, technically the Luna is not my mum.. I am the Alpha's bastard child, so I'd like to think that I look like my real mother.. wish I had a picture of her.. On my birthday I met my wolf, her name is Fenris and she is my only friend in 18 years of my existence.. other than Aiden, it's the first time I don't feel alone anymore, the thing is, I never told anyone I shifted, they think I wasn't able to shift, they call me a no-wolf she-wolf now, another taunting nickname.. I chose not to show my wolf or share about her because of how rare and different she is.. I hid my shifting from them because I did not want them to see Fenrir.. she is no ordinary wolf, she is HUGE, definitely the size of an alpha wolf, as big as the male alpha and her fur is exceptional, she is exceptional because she is a white wolf, white wolves are considered to be the Moon Goddess' descendants, but that's not the only amazing thing about my wolf, the thing is her fur changes colour to match the mood, like if I feel calm and relaxed Fenris' fur changes into the most beautiful shade of blue, she's dark blue at that time but sometimes her fur is lighter, and when I feel angry.. her fur changes to crimson red, but when I am calm and collected and keep my emotions at bay.. I am my original colour - white! Her eyes are a precious color as well.. Fenris' eyes change color sometimes but the only two I have seen are blue and fire-like orange.. So you get why I don't wan anyone to see my wolf.. I am planning on leaving this place, I am 18 so legally, they have no right to keep me here, they can't force me to stay since I am an adult.. the thing is I want to finish school before I leave... although becoming a rouge is no prize either.. Leaving this place, as shitty as it is.. if I stay here, I will suffer but it's easier.. because when I leave this place, I will be a rouge and the world is not a nice place for a rouge, especially a female one.. I wish my so called parents didn't hate me... I don't know why but I have never been treated nicely, I wish I haven't even been born.. like.. if my own parents and pack hate me so much.. who is ever going to love me or care about me?? I have an older brother, Aiden, he is soon to be Alpha of our pack, I think he will be great! A few weeks before my birthday, Aiden found his mate and soon they will have a Luna ceremony for her. Her name is Lily, she is awesome and other than Aiden she is technically the only one who treats me like a human being. "Do your damn job will you? what are you good for, you haven't served us breakfast yet??" Came another scream from Eva, nothing new, every morning she comes down to the kitchen an hour before the serving time so she can 'have fun' and make my life more of a hell than it already is.. She hates me... but I get it, I am not her daughter so I get why she never liked me.. Well.. a few things to know about me.. I am VERY shy and quiet and I mostly keep to myself, I don't ever talk back because if living here has taught me anything is that.. never talk back if u want to eat and don't get punished, I am not treated well but after living my whole life this way I am kind of used to it.. I don't even feel like I'm a part of this pack to be honest, I am an alpha's daughter but they treat me like dirt, they treat Aiden and me like day and night.. "Well, why don't you cook it yourself then??" *slap* "How dare u talk back to me?? I am your Luna, know your place before I throw you in the dungeon "Yes mother, sorry" *Slap* "I am not your mother and don't you ever address me as such" "Yes Luna, sorry" "Much better, now get out of my sight" She yelled at me before showing me.. I almost fell backwards when she pushed me with such force. Aaron walked in as I started setting the tables for the breakfast.. After setting the table for the pack I was about to leave and get ready for school since I am not allowed to eat with them but as I was about to leave Aaron called out to me and handed me a pile of papers "You have to file these cards and send them out, it's the invitations to Aiden and Lily's Luna ceremony" "Me?? But dad.. you said I could have this weekend for myself to prepare for graduation" I pleaded "How dare you question my orders?? I am your Alpha and you will do as ordered" "Aghh, okay, sorry dad" He glared at me for huffing at him.. "And for goddess sake, stop calling me dad and embarrassing me" At his words, even tho I am used to it by now, my eyes still started watering, and with that I took the papers he handed me and left the room As I left I could hear Fenris in my head, she was just as upset and hurt as I was *We shouldn't have to take their crap Skylar, I can't take their BS anymore* *I know Fenris, but what can we do?? This is our pack and he is my dad* *He is horrible and you know it* *I know, but we can't choose our families* My wolf was so wonderful, but it's true, everything she said.. I didn't want to put up with any of this much longer but I couldn't risk standing up to them and shifting in front of them, that would put Fenris in too much danger.. I went to my 'room', it's more of a broom closet really, Aiden tried to help me out and even talked to our parents about sharing his room with me but no luck. In this room, which is not even a room, they keep detergents and laundry supplies and such, I am allowed to stay here, I don't have a bed, or a pillow.. I'm not even allowed to shower.. I usually rinse myself off in the river in the woods, I sneak out in the middle of the night to do that.. I don't want anyone to know that that's where I shower, not even Aiden.. I don't have a shampoo.. I get a bar of soap every month and I use that to clean myself... I don't get to eat much either, mostly leftovers or such, I am only allowed a full meal on my birthdays.. and I get some food if I do the tasks I am ordered.. And since I didn't want to go without food tomorrow as well... I sent out all the invitations.. I was not thrilled about the long list of guests, don't get me wrong, I couldn't be happier for Aiden but... since I don't get much help from the omegas in the kitchen, I am left with doing almost all of their jobs as well as mine, whether it's cooking or cleaning... and no one scolds them or tells them to do their job as long as it gets done... it doesn't matter who does it as long as it is done properly. So yea.. that meant that.. the longer the list.. the more chores for me to do.. there were over 500 wolves invited to attend the ceremony, neighboring Alphas and their unmated hires or betas and ranked members, anyone unmated would be attending really so it will be more of a mingling party for them but that's almost always the way it is at these ceremonies soo.. It's gonna be a LOOONG f*****g week...
