1088 Words
Young miss! Young miss! Rose kept calling and signalling to me to pass the back door for I am in great trouble, young miss did you do something at school today ? Rose asked well quite a number of things happened today but .... Well, she cuts in your aunt is very furious," she said with fear in her eyes. Furious? Why? I asked I don't have an idea. The best thing is to go upstairs to your room and pretend as if nothing happened, Rose advised.
I nodded in agreement, we tiptoed on the stairs and Rose slipped due to the slippery tile on the stairs, ha! So you think you can actually escape from me after what you did today with alpha Ryan at school, huh! Or you think I wasn't aware? I have my eyes and ears on you, even in the toilet, Alina, my aunt said, smiling evily and landed me a hot slap on my face.
Oh aunt is wicked! Aunt is evil ! Aunt is the devil in this house ! Is that not what you usually say ? I will show you how wicked and devilish I can be, my dear," she said, mockingly.and grabbed me by the ears to the garden in the hot scorching sun.
You, Alina dear, will clear the area, wipe all the flowers, leaf by leaf, petals by petal, stem by stem and after, water them all , then you proceed to make dinner for my beautiful daughter Samantha. If she doesn't like it, and you hesitate to make another one, I will tear you from limb to limb and grind your bones for the dogs. They'll be glad anyway. She laughed and stepped a puddle of water, smashing it all over my face .
And the alpha, too, was there taking pity on the cursed child. He was a kind man, Samantha. She said, walking away. I could see Samantha smiling.
I had no choice than to follow suit, else dinner wouldn't be served.
It was a torture and I have sworn to stay away from alpha Ryan. I would avoid him like a plaque. It's not like I want him for myself, he just saved me from that bastard, that's all . Alex," I curse you," I said wiping the flowers in annoyance.
I was tired, almost couldn't move , I just laid on my bed like a log of wood. I need a massage before I sleep . I worked my ass today, I said, and slept off snoring like my life depended on it .
Not long after I had slept off I found myself sleeping in a room filled with water. Where am I ? I asked Alina! Alina I am so sorry about your parents and the tragic happenings around you I heard a voice say in echoes..
I am Gina, your wolf. What! My wolf? I said, shockingly, why haven't we wolf out yet? I have been waiting for you all these years. Why didn't you come when I needed you the most? I asked, crying I keep getting bullied here and there because I haven't wolf out
why'd you keep hiding ? Are you also ashamed of me ? No, No, I would never do that Lina! Gina said I have always wanted to but.... It was the moon goddess. She kept saying the right time is not now and it is coming very soon, so patience is what we need.
So we aren't going to evolve yet? I asked curious yes Lina. We still have to wait for a while she answered.
Uhhh this is killing me I said, holding my knees together and feeling discouraged.
But trust me I'll do my best to keep us safe she said encouraging me, .... Uh Lina our mate nevermind I know what to do to him she said smiling.
I have to sleep," Gina nice to meet you I said yawning and shutting my eyes
Young miss, young miss, you have to wake up, young miss Alina.... Rose kept calling. I was so sleepy as I have just encountered my wolf
Young miss it's today the Red Moon Empire festival. You have to stand up and be ...... Alinaaaa! My aunt shouted across the stairs. I bolted awake, trying to fix my hair and my face
Am awake, I am awake," I said, shouting at the top of my voice.
Why is the house untidy ? The decorations unfinished and the kitchen silent ?
I expect you to have known me by now," she said, adjusting her glove ... Well, I said, totally unsure of what to say … Just tell her that we have the maids to do that. Gina said what? I can't. She'll ground me alive," I replied inwardly.
Well that was past am here now," she said and took over my voice .
You can't answer why? My aunt said, looking at me straight in the eyes and raising her eyebrows.
Well, you see, we have the maids to do that and, besides, I am the princess of this empire and I deserve better I am just letting you stay here because we are related and, you're doing too much, using too much of your power ... Hey, hey," I said, signaling to Gina to stop .. I can handle it she said with assurance .
You dare!.. Talk! back! at! me ! She said with fury in her eyes and laughed The princess? Oh come on! That's complete nonsense. The only princess here is Samantha and her sisters, she said, raising her hand , my eyes shone, and my voice echoed if you dare lift your hands on me I'll feed you to the wild dogs in the forest. I said, with anger erupting in my bones:" You're just a low-level banshee and nothing else. Your scream probably won't be heard in the forest," I said, and fell down almost weakly. Rose caught me just in time while my aunt stormed out of the room looking stunned and angry.
Young miss, Rose called excitedly," I love you.... I mean the new you. You gave it to her hot for a hot good job, miss she said, smiling.
But miss how did you awaken overnight? Rose asked it's a story for another day Rose, I said weakly . OK, miss just rest up I'll let you know when the party is about to start so that you can
get ready . I nodded in agreement.
