1116 Words
ELLIES POV I dragged myself to the basement. this had been my bedroom for over a year now. my small bed and ragged sheets was all i had. For my good clothes, Kylie had taken them.My parents did not stop her something which prompted me to try snatching them back. safe to say i had woken up in a hospital after Max,Dylan and Cole all teamed up to beat for making their princess cry. They ad taken literally everything from me and handed it over to her .I grabbed my towel and headed to the small makeshift shower i had made in the middle of the room. they had cut the hot water supply here but that wasn't going to deter me from showering. Now my hardest job was undressing my shirt was stuck on my bruises. the dried blood almost made me throw up, i should be used to this by now really i chided myself as i yanked it. I let out a yelp as i stared at my skinny body. the ugly purple bruises filled my whole back. i quickly entered the shower no longer interested in seeing my reflection. After this i decided to lay down for sleep no longer wanting the food. one wrong move and i would bump into one of them . "Wake up dirty human, breakfast should be ready and ooh don’t forget to start baking early for my daughter’s birthday”. My ever-loving mum said as she threw my blankets off me.now . of course, no one was going to celebrate my birthday. I was not going to celebrate it too anyway. After splashing water on my face, I moved quickly to the kitchen. Dishes from last night were still on the table . no one did anything in this house and I was tired of being their slave.my stomach rumbled loudly a reminder that I had missed dinner. I grabbed some milk and gulped it down quickly .if I Had to clean up, I needed some energy. My scrawny self-moved around the kitchen cleaning up as fast as I could. It was already 6:30 . they would be down any time soon yet I was far from finishing cooking. I could hear their loud voices as they came down. I had managed to finished setting everything up. I had packed a basket . I needed to go and visit grandma before I started the birthday preparations. “I can’t wait for tonight. We are going to be mates Cole” kylie said proudly. Sometimes I was envious of her she had life on an easy mode which was completely unfair. I ignored their voices and slipped through the backdoor. “it’s the girl with no wolf’ “the ugliest creature I have ever laid on by far” “kids get out of the way before you all become like her” Those were words I heard on a daily basis, everyone avoided me like plague. Only my grandma seemed to tolerate me .it was for this reason that kylie tried killing her. “this old hag is the only person who loves you ,but guess what? Not anymore” Those were the exact words she had said before pushing her down. But my brothers had arrived just on time. Kylie had thrown herself down . The distance to her house wasn’t that long and within minutes I was there. “I am here grandma; I have brought you food” I said as I moved to serve her the food. The fall seemed to have been fatal her she had no bruises but she seemed unresponsive .I tried waking her but she did not respond. My worst fear was going to happen.no she could not be dead . but her body was cold and stiff. I let out a pained scream. She was all I had. I could not believe that mean moon goddess could do this to me . during my own birthday at it too. Tears rolled down my face as I sat on her bed .I was shaking . My cries had attracted attention of the neighbors who after seeing me turned to leave. I was distraught. I removed her necklace.it was the only valuable thing here. “if something ever happens to me take my necklace” ,she had told me these words before when my family loved me. I hid it in my pants and left . I had to inform the family so that she could be buried before the full moon. The whole trip to my parent’s house I was in daze. This meant that I might be executed for her death. I did not fear death it was just the torment I would ;pass through before they killed me that scared me. Maybe I should run away they found out; these were the thoughts in my mind but I would not survive being a rogue. “Grandma is dead” I announced once I was in the front door. “good riddance” “Finally, it was damn time” “Your savior is gone” Everyone in the room spoke at the same time. I did not know they hated her as much as they hated me. This was really sad. “Cole, inform your dad, we will have the slaves bury her before the ceremony begins.” My dad said. I was astonished that was his mum . “and you go and start preparations, you have a birthday and coronation ceremony to plan, get out of my sight” I could not believe they were treating her death like normal occurrence. My heart hurt. But there was nothing I could do. I was just weak and pathetic. I went in the kitchen and started baking I had three cakes to prepare. One for Kylie and the other two for the coronation ceremony of max and Cole. You see my dad was a beta, so max was going to be the beta. His mate Anna also happened to have a birthday . You have guessed right she was as terrible as the rest she was once my best friend, but now she was Kylie’s friend . Crazy how night changes. I loved baking so this was not going to be hard for me. After putting everything in the oven I started with their lunch because I needed to attend that funeral. Within three hours I was done and went to my room to rest. I was expected to be at the alphas house by 4 to help the slaves arrange the venue so I needed to get as much sleep as I could now.
