The Luna Of The Lake

The Party

"Jazmyn! Get out here NOW!" Leroy screams at me. I rush to the kitchen, and see that he is standing by enough food to feed a town.

"She's incompetent my love, you can't possibly believe she will be able to prepare all of this on her own" Katie, the second mate, said while glaring at me. She has hated me since her and my uncle killed my parents. She is the reason I became the pack slave.

"Uncle,' I say, not meeting his eyes, "I will have this meal prepared for our guests, I swear." *Smack* I feel the pain before I can fully process what just happened to me. "You will NOT speak out of turn you little b***h!" Katie hisses at me. I feel the blood drip from my busted lip. "Get to cooking Jazmyn, maybe if you do well enough, I'll allow you to eat near the pack house tonight." Leroy says to me.

As I prepare the three course meal, I drift off to the dream of running through the woods. Before I know it, Alpha's begin arriving with their Beta's by their side. I pay no mind to the laughter and conversation from the dining area as I finish up the last of the desserts. This meal is the biggest I have ever prepared. A fresh salad to start, lobster with twice baked potatoes for the main course and a delicious salted honey tarte tatin. The last of the Alpha's join into the dining area and I begin to take the salads to our guests.

As I carry out the last of the drinks, I trip over something that I did not see. Champagne sprays everywhere, covering the largest Alpha in the room. Laying on the floor I begin apologizing profusely to the now soaked Alpha in front of me. *Thunk* Something collides with the side of my head, my vision goes black and my ears start to ring. "It isn't that bad! I barely got wet!" I hear someone yell. *Crack* My ankle snaps, stomped on by someone behind me. "ENOUGH!" the large Alpha roars out. "You cannot harm her anymore!"

"She belongs to us" I hear Leroy say with a hint of fear in his voice. "She is my niece! I can do as I please with her!"

"She's MY MATE" the Alpha booms. At this point I black out and lose time, unsure of what is happening. Pain seers through my entire body as it's lifted off of the ground.

I awake in a strange white room, my baggy shirt and ripped jeans no where to be seen, a strange gown draped over my body. I feel no pain from my injuries but a faint pressure in my hand. I look down and there's a tube coming out of my hand. In a panic, I pull it out and see a needle attached to it. An alarm sounds from the machine next to me and in rushes a man in a white coat, closely followed by the Beta that came with the tall Alpha.

"She's awake" says the Beta. "Go get Damien and inform him" the man in the coat walks out. "Hi there, my name is Adrian, I am the Beta to Alpha Damien of the Silver Moon pack. We brought you to this clinic to get you medical attention."

Suddenly I smell a mixture of sweet roses and calm waters. “Mate” I hear inside my head. What? Who are you? I think to the voice “My name is Lisabeth, I am your Wolf.” My wolf? Already? This is insane. What does she mean, Mate? I don't have time to ask her anything else because the tall Alpha from before strolls into the room. He's beautiful. Hair black as obsidian and eyes like emeralds stand out from his olive toned skin. Muscles ripple under his tight, navy blue shirt. I'm star struck. I can feel Lisabeth pushing to the front. Wanting to see him, wanting to inhale his sweet scent. Not the time I snap at her. I feel her pout and back down, allowing me to breathe.
