The Abused

Crowning Day

*One week and half later*

It’s finally Saturday normally my day off to be able to do whatever I like. However, this morning has been nothing but calm. Today is the day that Mason will become the new Beta, and Dad and Mom cannot be more proud and excited. They have a list of things I must do before I even think to get ready for the crowning. They have been extra nice to me this last week, mostly because of the amount of meetings and people that have been over to the house baring gifts and good wishes for my brother. However, they have done their best to keep me busy as possible, and gave me direct orders to "stay out of the damn way" as mom put it. Today they have me doing all of the cooking with a couple of volunteer helpers that want to make the new alpha and beta happy as possible on their day. I mean the whole day is set aside to celebrate the new alpha and beta; they receive presents and a huge celebration after the coronation. Personally, I believe all of this is overrated, and overdone. After getting done with all the food and cleaning the kitchen up, I finally go to my room and start getting ready. My mom went to some fancy place called JcPenny, and picked me up a beautiful dress. It was a floor length maroon color with glitter around the top portion of the dress that came up with a high neck line, and a plunging back that goes right below wear the back of my bra would hit. This dress was one of the most beautiful dresses I have ever worn.

Finally the time has come for me to go down to the celebration, I have overheard all the volunteer cooks talking about how excited they were to meet all of the visitors from the other packs mostly Alphas, Betas, and Gammas and their future Alphas, Betas, and Gammas were to be coming to the crowning to celebrate. Quickly I looked back in the mirror at my Strawberry Blonde Hair in light curls framing my face with no makeup on besides a little chapstick on my lips to make them look healthy. I quickly sighed as I was taking in how pretty I feel right in this very moment knowing it won’t be long before I’m back in my handy down clothes and my hair back in a bun or ponytail. As soon as I walked out of the door I immediately saw all the other girls in their beautiful gowns with hair and makeup fully done. They all looked stunning; I couldn’t even compare to them not even close. Finally after putting on a straight face, and trying to think about how beautiful I felt not even five minutes ago, I started heading out to wear the party is.

As I headed to the party I was stopped by no other than Conner as he grabbed me by the arm and yanked me to the nearest room so we could talk in private. Conner looks at me furious as he starts to speak, “Where the F**k have you been?” “Why the F**k have you been ignoring me all day!” in a whisper yell as he tried not to draw to much attention to us. I yanked my arm out of his grip as he looked me up and down obvious lust filled in his eyes.

“I-I’m sorry my parents made me cook for the entire event tonight with a few volunteer workers, and I-I should have tried better to have contacted you today.” saying defeated. I guess I could have speared a few extra minutes to tell him about what was happening today, but it honestly didn’t cross my mind. He hugged me and said, “It’s okay I saw you working in the kitchen earlier; I just figured you would have texted me.” He looked at me up and down again as he began saying, “Okay remember I cannot be around you tonight so don’t talk to no other guys, and there will not be a problem between us, Okay?” As I nodded he turned on his heels and headed to the party I shook off all the bad vibes I just got from this whole conversation wondering why I even put up with this. Oh that’s right without him I wouldn’t talk to no one, I would be absolutely alone. I cleared my watering eyes and headed back to the party.

As soon as I was getting close to the door I started feeling extremely nauseous; I quickly spun on my heels to go to the nearest bathroom. I basically ran to the bathroom as soon as I arrived nothing happened. I soon decided it was my anxiety with so many people around that is why I started feeling so nauseous. I stayed in the bathroom for a while until I got a handle of myself and my nausea. Once I walked out of the bathroom I stood around by myself for a while until everyone was called to the stadium to watch as the crowning began to happen. I decided to stand in the very back because every time I tried to move closer to see a better view of what is happening I keep getting a wave of nausea. As soon as Dylan was renounced the Alpha of Grey Sea Pack he announced my brother Mason as Beta along with Coby the latest Beta’s son as the Gamma. Coby had curly brown blonde hair, and he was built like a brick. Dad and Mom were smiling from ear to ear so proud of their perfect son. As soon as the crowning was over everyone started mingling. I glimpsed over to see Conner talking to some she wolfs from another pack; it honestly looked more like he was flirting with them instead of just talking. It did kind of hurt me to think he may just stop talking to me all together if he finds someone better, then I really will be alone. Soon I saw Dad, Mom, Mason, Dylan, and his parents talking in a group. I decided to go up to them and congratulate them on becoming the new Alpha and Beta. Soon I was standing with them listening to them talk. Once there was a break in the conversation I finally spoke up and congratulated them. Alpha Dylan and Mason both thanked me soon there was an awkward silence, and I was about to take my leave when another round of nausea hit me hard this time I felt dizzy and lightheaded. My mom noticed how pale I went, and quickly grabbed a seat to sit me down and grabbed me bottled water. Before I could regain myself control a man with ice blue eyes walked up to Dylan and Mason to congratulate them and our eyes locked that is the last thing I remembered before I completely blacked out.
