ILL FATED MATE BOND

Preparation for the Alpha summit

Hazel's POV

“Make sure everything is in place” head maid Agnes said to us.

“Alpha King is going to be here for the alpha summit, so I want everyone to work properly and no slacking off. Duties are already assigned so start working….” She continued giving us the instructions.

Today Red shadow pack is hosting the Alpha summit of our kingdom. So the alpha of all the packs are going to attend the summit along with their units, that is their beta, Luna, gammas etc.

Alpha king is also going to attend the summit and that is the main reason why everyone is so on edges in regards to perfection.

Alpha David the current Alpha of Red shadow pack has told us that he wants everything to be perfect.

We were listening to each and every instructions very carefully.

Because we all know that if we made even a slight mistake or there is even a single tiny thing that is not in place then the punishment is going to be severe.

This is the fate of us, fate of omega slaves.

After giving all the instructions Agnes dismissed us. We all were just about to leave the place so that we can get to our respective works, Laura entered into the room and my mood instantly went downhill.

She is the person who never let go the chance of making my life a living hell. By the look on her face anyone could tell that she is not in good mood.

And that is a bad news for every one of us.

She is the best she wolf warrior of Red shadow pack and of course a beta blood as well. She is daughter of the current beta of this pack.

But not even a single quality of her father can be seen in her. Beta and his son Alex who is going to become the next beta are just very kind hearted and empathetic towards their pack members.

On the other hand Laura is nothing but a b**ch and who else can know her better than me.

She stood in front of us, all intimidatingly and everyone’s head hung low in fear. She doesn’t like anyone staring into her eyes when she is talking to them, especially us omegas.

Maybe that is because she wants everyone to respect her as she is going to be the next Luna of Red shadow pack. But she doesn’t realize that respect can not be demanded, it is earned.

She is the chosen mate of the future Alpha Mason. He is twenty four this year. He found his mate four years ago when he visited some other pack. But to her misfortune she was an omega.

'How can a strong, powerful alpha accept a weak and pathetic omega as his mate?'

Their words not mine.

So he did what you would expect from a heartless jerk like him. He rejected her on their first meeting.

After that he waited for a while to see if he would be gifted with a second chance mate by moon goddess. But when he didn’t find her, he announced Laura as his chosen mate three years ago.

I felt bad for Mason’s mate and to be honest, it scares me too. I am an omega too. I don’t want it to happen but what if I am mated to a higher rank wolf or worse to an alpha, and he will reject me just because of my rank.

This thought is really horrifying. Because I know what can a pain of rejection do to a wolf. I am aware of the fact that it can even kill you, if you are not strong enough to bear that pain.

That is why I always pray to moon goddess to pair me with someone who is of same rank as mine. At least he won’t reject me for a stupid reason that I am an omega.

Laura pushed Agnes harshly causing her to almost Fall and stood in front of us. It angered me and I know to most of us but we didn’t say anything.

“What are you all doing here instead of working huh? Aren’t you going to move your lazy a**es and get to work” she shouted.

Many of the omegas flinched at her tone but I know this is not the worse.

“We were just about to…” Agnes started but was cut off when a loud noise echoed in the silent room. Laura slapped her.

“Shut up you b**ch” Laura spat. Then the room was silent for a while.

My head was bowed in front of her but I could feel her piercing eyes throwing dagger in my direction.

I don’t know what is it with her but she hates me and I can clearly see it in the way she looks at me or behaves with me.

“You.. worthless b**ch. Come here” she called out and I didn’t need to look at her to know that she was talking to me.

This is what she calls me, A worthless b**ch.

I walked towards her and stood in front of her. My head was still hung low because I know the consequences of looking up are going to be bad.

I was waiting for her to say something, either give me an order of some kind or talk down on me like she always does as if it’s her hobby. But she didn’t say anything.

I was about to ask her for her command when she suddenly grabbed me by my hairs pulling them harshly and a painful scream left my mouth because of the impact.

“Till when do I have to see this ugly face of yours huh? Why don’t you just go and die somewhere” she spat on my face.

‘I don’t know why she hates me so much. What in the world have I done, for her to torture me like this'.

My hands were wrapped around her fist which was clutching my hairs. Tears had already started stinging my eyes because of pain. Her hold was so tight and she was pulling on my hairs so harshly that my scalp is feeling like it’s on fire.

“I am sorry Luna, please forgive me” I apologized even though I don’t know what my mistake is. Probably I didn’t even do anything wrong and she might have just felt like punishing me for no reason.

Yes, you guessed it right. It’s not the first time that she is doing this to me. It’s almost everyday routine for her now.

Why I apologized?

It’s because I know that is what she wants to hear. She likes showing off her power and position. That is why she has ordered everyone in the pack to call her the Luna even though she hasn’t taken over the title yet.

She left me with a jerk and I stumbled on my feet while grabbing my head. It feels like it is on fire. Tears were still stinging the back of my eyes but I didn’t let them fall.

“Listen carefully you piece of sh*t, today alpha king and the alphas of other pack’s are going to come here to attend the Alpha summit”.

“And I don’t want you anywhere near pack house around that time. No matter how long it takes, you are not going to show your face to any of the guests here. You understood?” She asked after instructing me.

'Do I have a choice except for following your command then why are you even bothering to ask?’ I wanted to ask this but I controlled myself and my boiling anger.

“Yes Luna” I replied in low tone, knowing too well she doesn’t like people raising their voices in front of her.

Yeah I know, complete b**ch.

“Luna… but she has to prepare the food. You know how everyone in pack house likes eating the food made by her. So the duty of preparing the food for tonight is assigned to her by Alpha David himself” Agnes informed her.

I could hear the fear and panic in her tone.

It caused Laura to get even more irritated. She cursed, “F**k”.

“Okay, so prepare the food in the kitchen but don’t you dare and step your foot out of the kitchen” she told me with gritted teeth and I again replied with ‘yes Luna'.

“Now dismiss” she ordered and everyone dispersed in few seconds. I was also about to step foot out of the room when her high pitched irritating voice entered into my ears and I stopped.

“I know what you are trying to do in here, you low class sh*t” she spat as she stood in front of me glaring at my face, blocking my way.

It made me confused. “I don’t understand what you are saying” I said honestly.

She scoffed “Oh yes”.

Then she stepped closer to me. Her angry black eyes fixed on my face as she said in low voice, “Don’t pretend to be innocent in front of me. This trick of yours might work on the male wolves out there but I know what kind of sl*tty b**ch you are”.

My fists clenched to my side upon hearing her words. I can hear any kind of insults people throw at me but I can’t accept when someone tries to point their finger at my dignity.

“How many of this pack’s members have you satisfied till now? Are you planning on spreading your legs in front of each and every male wolf in the pack huh?” she accused.

I lifted my angry eyes up to glare at her face. My blood is boiling now because of the anger.

“Who are you glaring at, huh?” her voice raised at the disrespect shown by me but I can’t help myself right now.

“You…” she raised her hand up to slap me but I took a step away from her, dodging it causing her to lose her balance.

“I am not going to get slapped for the mistake that I have not done. And not at all going to hear you calling me what I am not and accuse me for what I haven’t done” I replied while still glaring into her eyes.

“How dare you…” she started but I cut her off when I said, “We are not sixteen or seventeen anymore Laura. I am not going to take this s**t from you now. That time was different, we were immature but now the things are different”.

“I didn’t say anything in front of everyone but I think now you should stop acting like a angry child all the time. We are grown ups now. We should act like one” saying this I turned around and left her there alone with dropped jaw and wide open eyes.

I have had enough of her now. I know I shouldn’t have talked to her in such a way as she is a future Luna of the pack. And I definitely know that the consequences of my words and actions are not going to be pleasant.

But how am I supposed to put up with someone who point their fingers at me raising questions to my dignity.

I know what is waiting for me after this alpha summit through my past experiences of talking back in front of her and it is causing a shiver of cold sweat running down my spine.

It is going to be painful. Extremely painful.

I always try to keep my tongue inside my mouth so that it doesn’t utter the kind of words, I did a while ago in front of her. I always control my anger and put up with every insult or abuse she throws towards me.

I have gotten used to it already. Because I know this is how all omegas are getting treated by one or the other higher rank pack member.

There is always someone to bully you when you are powerless and weak. And this is the fate of every omega wolf in this Red shadow pack or maybe even out there.

We have to put up with the insults, bullying and abuse in order to survive. And we do. Even some endure it to the point where they are even stripped off of their dignities.

But can I put up with that kind of insult?? No I can’t. I would rather die than living without self respect and dignity.

I entered into the kitchen trying to push the thoughts of what is about to come for me after alpha summit.

‘Don’t think too much Hazel. You have already endured enough, you are going to be okay'.

With this thought I engrossed myself in my work.
