REJECTED, SOLD AND CLAIMED :PROPERTY OF ALPHA ARCHER

Chapter 1 WHERE IT WENT WRONG

Aria

I held my breath as the pains shot through my body. My eyes were heavy. I checked through the window and it was still dark. My stomach grumbled. I held the wall as I stood up from the bed, my whole body shaking. I caught a cold. I glanced around my room which was nothing more than an abandoned store room.

At least I was alive, that was all that mattered. I freshed up and wore another shabby dress. I smiled dryly. This was my fate, the fate of a wolfless girl in the pack. the shame of the pack and even the werewolf clans. I made my way to the kitchen without making any sound. It was as if I didn't exist in this life. "Get your lazy ass down here Aria" My mum screamed and I hurried in.

"Don't you know today is the full moon, even though you're useless, you should at least have the gratitude to serve well on a special occasion" she said. I joined in mixing a dough since no one was in the empty spot. "am sorry mum" I apologised but stiffened cause I knew I made a mistake just now. Mum stopped what she was doing. The air around tightened. She walked towards me and and landed me two hot slap on my right cheek. "am not the mother of a total looser like you " she snapped and i nodded. Tears welled in my eyes. Of course I looked around, no one was looking at me, they all turned to the duties. No one pitied me. I swallowed.

They could never pity me. To them I was the useless pack looser who does not have a wolf and still can't serve to meet their standard properly. Mum was back to her duties. I turned and continued brushing the dough with butter. I fought hard to keep my tears back. Today was not just the night of the full moon, it was also the age-coming ​ceremony for every wolf who had reached the age of eighteen this year. It was also a day where these wolves chose their mate. I clocked nineteen years last week and as usual it was also another unbearable day. No one wished me a happy birthday, I am not sure they even remembered.

I really hope to get mated At least if I have a mate I would be protected. But what if I have one and he rejects me. Rejection is one of the most painful experiences a werewolf can feel but since I am wolfless I might feel nothing. After today, I might be thrown into the refinery. That was my punishment for being wolfless and mateless. I snapped the tears back in lost in my world "Hey do you want to soak the dough in butter" someone yelled and I instantly bowed "Am sorry" i said as i quickly made amends she hit with her shoulder making my shoulder brush the hot baking pan that was just removed from the oven. I shrieked as the pain of the burn swallowed me whole.

Of course that was my sister, Daisy. I swallowed the urge to yell at her and continued what I was doing. The whole kitchen scenario went on without anyone reacting. It was as if I was not human, as if it wasn't a human that was going through all of this. "Aria, go to the store and sort all the items and be quick about it" the head cook instructed. "Okay" I replied and left. You know sometimes, I would think maybe she pities me but she has proven me wrong countless times. Maybe it was just my imagination. Maybe I was pathetic enough to think so because I was ready. I marched to the store and started working.

I arranged a whole shelf within some minute. I wanted to finish clearing the carton from the products of that shelf. I arrange ​​the carton and to carried it. I wanted to drop it when the carton tip touched my burn. My hands immediately shaked and the carton slipped from my hands. I didn't know when i burst into tears How did I got here. Just a few year ago, i was a princess, i was the favourite child of the pack's Beta.

My father Beta Evis, Adored me. Even mom wasn't mean. That time we didn't live in the pack house but dad would usually bring me to the pack house whenever he came to work. I was always playing with Damien, the present Alpha and son of the former Alpha. My life was sweet and good until all ended under a full moon. I hadn't gotten any wolf which was not normal but everyone treated me well. Every full moon I was not allowed to go out since i couldn't go on run with other werewolf due to my wolfless state. That faithful full moon, I was bored and I discreetly trailed after them as the whole pack was silent and boring.

I entered the woods making sure they were many miles ahead. The forest was cold and the moonlight shone against the leaves. I was scared but I didn't want to stop. Suddenly I heard a growl from behind me. I turned swiftly and saw a green wolf. I thought I was caught but the smell was not from our pack. Though I never got my wolf, my smelling sense was intact. That was when it hit me that this could be away from my pack. I was taken by the wolf.

I tried to fight but I could only try my best which was equivalent to nothing. Before I was taken away but soon my absence was noticed in the pack. Dad came to save me while the Alpha also followed him. They met a mighty army. Before the warriors from our pack could come, Dad was dead and the Alpha was in a bad state.
