THE FORGOTTEN WOLF PRINCESS

Lyra POV I am Lyra Harper,the third daughter of Avalon pack. I have two elder sisters, Thalia and Eliza. My mother was a maid in the palace when my father,the alpha, was consumed by beauty. She had blonde hair and silver eyes,just like mine. My mother got removed from the palace by the Luna after knowing of Adrian's relationship with her. A few months later,she realised she was pregnant with me,she took care of me by herself and brought me up. But everything changed the day my mother collapsed,I was 7 years old then,still a young pup. I looked my mother in the eyes as her life was slowly draining away,I laid there,helpless,tears wearing up my eyes. Then he arrived,the alpha of the Avalon pack,my father. My mother had pleaded with my father to take me in as his child,I saw my mother draw her last breath and my father, Adrian, took me in as his ‘adopted’ daughter. My life in the palace was miserable,my two elder sisters derived joy in bullying me,my stepmother Luna did everything to make sure my life in the palace was a living hell. My father, the alpha, was also indifferent towards me, and didn't treat me like his two elder daughters. The only person that was good to me was the old general Gregor,my step siblings grandfather. Ten years have passed and living in the palace of Avalon was miserable,the people of the pack do not know much about me,some barely know I even exist. I didn't attend parties with my siblings,I was known as the forgotten wolf. But actually that changed when my 18th birthday arrived. It was a custom that a daughter from the royal family of Avalon would be presented,so a grand ball was held,all the high value families of Avalon were invited to search for a suitable suitor for the royal daughter. It was general Gregor who fought with my father and stepmother to make sure I was presented today at the ball, it was my birthright. General Gregor might not be my blood,but he takes care of me as though I am his daughter. After much fighting,my father Adrian agreed and the day for the ball had finally arrived. I was dressed with a beautiful round neck royal blue gown with sprinkles of silver at the waistline that was accompanied with my blonde hair and silver eyes. Looking at the mirror,I was stunned by the figure in front of me. I usually do not wear make-up or beautiful dresses or even jewelry. KNOCK KNOCK. The sound of knocking was heard at my room door. “Come in," I said faintly. The door opened and a maid walked in with her head bowed a little. “Your grace, all the guests have arrived,the alpha has requested your presence, immediately.” the maid said. “Understood,I'll be there shortly" I replied I looked at myself once again in the mirror,exhaled and left the room
