The Luna He Rejected

“The alpha requests your presence,” one of the warriors said as he looked at me with a disgusted face. That was common for me, every single person in this pack hated me because I didn’t have my wolf, and being the Beta’s daughter I was the embarrassment of my whole family. Scratch that, I was the embarrassment of the whole pack. I cleaned my hands in my worn-out jeans. I didn’t have anything decent to wear, but I tried to make the most of the few clothes that I had thanks to Silvia, my only friend in this pack. Sometimes I wonder why everyone hates me so much. If it was because of my wolf, I had no say in that and their hatred was plain stupid. It didn’t matter though, I don’t think they needed a reason to hate me, they just needed someone to direct their anger at. It was like I was their personal punching bag. I followed the warrior to the Alpha’s office. That is another thing, I’m always watched, like I’m some sort of enemy. The omegas always whisper about me, like I can't hear them. My name is Ivy Summers, I’m 17 years old and to my pack, I’m an outcast, an anomaly in the werewolf community. At 16, you usually gain your wolf, but I didn’t. My mom died after she gave birth to me, so they started saying that me being wolf-less was because of a curse, a punishment from the Moon Goddess, as I killed my mom. I reached the alpha’s office and knocked on the door softly. I do things carefully to avoid being yelled at or beaten. When I heard the “come in”, I opened the door to find my worst enemies. My sister Bianca, one of my biggest tormentors, sat in the lap of Alpha Alexander, who was going to be Alpha next week. The current Alpha Kory, sat behind his desk, while his son was on the couch close to the window. I saw Alpha Alexander stiffen, weird. He has acted strangely these last few days. “I was told that you called me Alpha”. After I finished speaking, I heard a growl coming from Alpha Kory. He hated that I spoke first. “What have I told you, Ivy? You cannot speak unless spoken to, or do I have to give you a lesson again?” I felt a chill in my back as I remembered that beating. It left me incapacitated for almost an entire week, especially since I couldn’t receive medical treatment. “No Alpha, that won’t be necessary, it won’t happen again”. With that, he gave me a satisfied look. Fucker. “I called you because I need you to organize everything for my son's ceremony. He has chosen his Luna, as you can see, and I’m giving him the pack.” Oh, great! More things for me to do. “ You have to send the invitations, prepare the food and the suites for every Alpha or Beta that may come.” I saw my sister’s face, she was damn happy that I was the one doing this shitty job, and it was because she took my mate from me. I still remember the day when I found out that I was Alexander’s mate. It was the worst day of my f*****g life. No, I am not going along that path again. I shook that thought and tried to concentrate on what Kory was saying. “Is everything clear?” f**k, what did he say? I’m not going to ask, that is going to get me a beating. It can’t be that hard. I’ve organized everything in this pack for almost two years now. “Yes Alpha, is that all? So I can start preparing everything.” I saw my sister grind against Alexander. Gross. Thankfully, I don’t feel pain anymore, or let’s just say that I have grown used to pain, so it doesn’t affect me as much. It wasn't a physical pain, it was more like my heart ached every time I saw them. “No Ivy,” I saw how a malicious smile appeared on my sister's face. “It’s been what, like almost two years, and you don’t have a wolf, right?” I wanted to growl at her, but I couldn’t. I just looked at her and tried to suppress the urge to hit her. As I wasn’t answering, she continued “If you don’t have a wolf by your 18th birthday, then why do you live here? You are one more mouth to feed and don’t do anything here.” Calm down Ivy, just breathe. She wants you to lose your mind so that she can beat you herself. “She has a point, dad. But I think I have a better plan.” Said Alexander. Great, now he is going to talk s**t about me as well. As if they didn’t know that I did everything in the pack house and for zero payment. I'm like a f*****g slave. “What do you suggest, son, we can’t banish her, she hasn’t broken any laws.” Yet, if I don’t leave in the next five minutes I’m gonna lose my s**t and get myself killed. They talk as if I’m not here. “Well, the Alpha King has requested a breeder. Since she is a Beta by blood, she could produce amazing heirs.” I want to vomit. “That being said, it could give us a great opportunity to gain a place on the council,” Alexander said. “Hmmm,” I can’t believe he is considering it. I’m not even of age right now. “That is a great idea son, I knew you could be an Alpha. You are behaving like one just now”. Why Moon Goddess, why do you hate me so much? “Ivy,” said Alpha Kory with anger, “you are not listening to me, but since you are going to be the King's breeder I can’t leave any marks” f*****g great. “If by your 18th birthday you don’t have a wolf you are going to go with the King.” “And if I refuse?” I said I don’t care if they beat me, my body is not for sale. “Looks like you have forgotten your place” I saw as Alpha Kory’s eyes fogged, meaning he was, mind linking someone and a few seconds later the door burst open as three warriors entered. They grabbed me and injected my neck with wolfsbane as I tried to break free from their grip. It was useless. They were stronger than I. I could only see how they carried me to the dungeon of the pack. A place that I knew damn well. Their fun is just beginning, at least I don’t have to prepare Alexander’s ceremony. I just hope that death will arrive. Everything is better than this. Quick announcement. I am re-reading the whole book as they have asked me to translate it. I will also correct any spells that I find, so please be patient with me. The storyline will be the same, I will just be correcting some things that I have noticed that need to be polished. Also, there will be a sequel called "His Unexpected Luna" but it will probably be up next month. I don't know yet if I'm going to publish it here or in another book, and would love to hear your thoughts on this. As always, love you all.
