The Royal Orphan

14 - Kate

ELLE POV 

I have spent the last week with Abby Henry the Doctor and my Physiotherapist Stephan, working on leg exercises for my knee and trying to manage my anxiety when it comes to him and loud noises. I haven't seen David in a few days he stayed with me after he left the hospital and stuck around for a day or two but I haven't seen him since then. "Okay Honey, you are doing amazing!" Abby tells me as I follow Stephan's instructions which makes me smile. "So after today we will see you Friday next week and the week after then again 2 weeks after that to remove the cast off your arm" She informs me as she checks the paperwork. "Thankyou Abby" I tell her. When the Physio session finishes I go back to my room to wait until I have to leave, practicing the tricks Abby has taught me to stop a panic attack. 

It is just after Dinner when David comes into the room and picks up my small bag. "Hey you ready?" he asks without looking at me, I nod in return and start to follow him out of the room. "I-is everything okay?" I ask I am not sure where he has been or why he is acting so cold towards me and it probably isn't any of my business but we are friends are we not? So I can ask right? "Yeah ... sorry, look you know what your doing you know what the rules are stay out of sight do your chores and go back to your room, just promise me you will stay out of trouble Elle?" he says with concern "yes of course but what is going on why didn't you come to see me?" I ask now worried what I am going back too. "I have been busy Elle!" he snapped I jumped back and felt the tears prickling my eyes. "Elle I'm sorry, I didn't mean to shout okay? The new girl is here and I have been trying to sort things out and my normal duties on top of that. I am stressed and I shouldn't have taken it out on you forgive me Elle please?" David asks with his head down, I wrap my arms around him and he does the same back "I am so sorry Elle" he says into my hair as a tear falls down my cheek. "It's okay, I forgive you" I tell him in return, he places a kiss on my head before letting go and grabbing my hand. 

We walk up to the packhouse and David takes me round the side "If you ever need to leave the house for any reason use this entrance" he says as he opens a small wooden door. We walk through the door and enter a small storage room it looks like the cleaning cupboard but that didn't have a door inside, David must has noticed my confusion because he said "there was always a door in here it was just hidden behind the set of shelves, I have moved the shelves into the office so you can use this door but do not go outside when you may be seen and never go far, use this entrance and exit for your appointments with Doc then you have less of a chance to run into anyone else." I nod in return unable to speak. He opens the door and looks out of it before letting me through, we then walk straight down the hallway and too the basement doors, he opens the door and walks in first I follow him to my room and gasp at what I see in front of me. 

DAVID POV 

I knew I hadn't spent much time with Elle like I promised her but I couldn't. Zane and Sam returned with the new girl the next day she had bruises all over her body and tears constantly streaming down her cheeks, she wouldn't tell anyone what had happened to her and Zane and Sam had said they bought her like that. Camille, Sandy and a handful of omegas were at the packhouse doing the cooking and cleaning since Elle was unavailable so I had been called here to make sure the new girl knew the rules and expectations. When I took her to the basement where both girls will be staying Elle's mattress was cut up along with her clothes. I have spent most of this week having everything removed from the room as per Zane's request, I managed to convince him to allow me to get some clothes for the girls to which he allowed reluctantly. I have also been putting restrictions on the computer in the office as per Zane's request they can do school work and order food supplies other than that they cannot use the computer for anything else. The new girl is called Kate she's 17, dark brown wavy hair that goes to her waist or it did until Stacey cut it off on the first night it now falls just past her shoulders. She is just as scared as Elle is of Zane and he seems to be more sinister than before, he has this evil burning in his eyes and it utterly terrifying. 

At lunch I was going to collect Elle from the hospital but I got called to a meeting in the Alpha's office. They were discussing Sam and Stacey's party that would be in a few weeks and what the girls needed to prepare along with other pack matters such as the rogues that my father and I had been training would now be sent out on missions and my father and I would be leading them. Graduation was fast approaching also which means that Zane and Sam would both be leaving for the Academy for 8 months instead of 3 as everyone decided it would be best if they trained with other Alpha's and Beta's for longer instead of following their fathers around when they already do that anyway, which means my girls would be left alone for 8 months other than Stacey of course, I do not agree that everyone is letting Stacey do what she wants with the girls under the excuse that she will be the future Luna but I have also been warned about my  involvement with the girls too apparently I am to get my own girl and to leave Zane and Sam's girls alone. So once the meeting was over I went to collect Elle straight away and snapped at her because I was so disgusted by everyone allowing them to treat the girls this way. 

ZANE POV 

I allowed David to collect Elle from the hospital because I had plans with Stacey this afternoon, since I have returned she has been open with how much she hates Elle and now Kate too not that it bothers me and Sam. it took 2 days for me to convince Stacey that they are our little slaves nothing more, she cut Kate's hair on the first day just because she showed up with us. I thought it was hilarious but Sam wasn't too pleased as he said he liked her long hair. We had convinced our fathers to let us attend the academy for 8 months instead of 3 and told Stacey the girls were her slaves while we were away. All I wanted was to see Stacey happy and when we told her she can do what she wants with them as long as they're alive she was over the moon, I never thought I would find a girl as twisted as I am but then Stacey is Sam's twin and has grew up with us both so it is no surprise. Stacey's birthday is in 2 weeks and Graduation is 2 weeks after that. I then leave for the Academy with Sam the week after. So I am spending all my free time with Stacey.
