Demigoddess Rowena

I was having the most beautiful dream, one I’ve been having for as long as I could remember. Only this time, I could finally see and hear my mate, and he was gorgeous! In my dream, he isn’t surrounded by a harem of women, and he definitely wanted a mate. Alpha Lachlan Gideon is 6’8, with green eyes and copper hair long enough to put in a man bun. He also has a thick reddish-brown beard that highlights his sharp jaw. His body is all muscle. They threaten to tear his black shirt. When he spoke, I could hear a faint Scottish accent and he was even wearing a clan kilt. I thought I was going to lose my mind, and he was so perfect! We were sitting on a checkered blanket under an old weeping willow. It was the future, and I had a plum pixie cut and tattoos. We were enjoying a picnic on a beautiful sunny day by a turquoise watering hole. Five pups surrounded us, laughing and playing tag. Even though I still couldn’t see their faces, I knew they were ours. I was drinking my wine. Lachlan was about to kiss me when suddenly I couldn't breathe. This never happened before in my dream. I felt hands wrapped around my throat,

“HE’S FREAKING MINE, YOU UGLY b***h!” A woman yelled.

My eyes snap open to see one of the women with Alpha Gideon last night strangling me. IS THIS SERIOUSLY HAPPENING RIGHT NOW!?!?!? I'm not scared or worried. I’m just pissed off and so fucken tired. I glare at her as she repeats herself,

“HE'S FREAKING MINE. I AM HIS FAVOURITE BUNNY, ME, NOT YOU. ME!” She continued choking me.

I looked around the room for a second and realized I was in some hospital. I am hooked to an IV and other monitors. I was in fresh clothes, and I had wet hair that felt light. I was brought back to reality when the crazy she-wolf started yelling again,

“I WILL HAVE HIS PUPS, NOT YOU. YOU WILL NOT RUIN MY PLANS! I AM HIS FAVOURITE f*****g BUNNY AND I AM GOING TO GET RID OF YOU!” She was screaming at the top of her lungs.

Okay, this she-wolf is seriously missing brain cells if she thinks it was a bright idea to try and kill me in her human form. I smirk at her while she rambles on about being Alpha Gideon’s favourite bunny. When she randomly stops and sniffs the air,

“WHY CAN I SMELL HIM ON YOU? ANSWER ME, STUPID b***h! WHY CAN I SMELL HIM ON YOU AND YOUR BED? I AM HIS FUCKEN FAVOURITE!” She tightens her grip,

“YOU'RE TOO SHORT, UGLY, AND SCARRED TO BE HIS TYPE!” She fumed, continuing her rant,

“STOP PRETENDING TO BE HIS MATE BECAUSE WE ALL KNOW YOU'RE LYING. HE WON'T CHOOSE YOU OVER HIS FAVOURITE BUNNY!” She was hysterical.

Holy s**t, she keeps going on about being a bunny and It's getting harder for me to breathe. I couldn’t tell if she was just outraged or really needs a therapist.,

“I don't know why I smell like him.” I struggle,

“The last thing I remember is passing out, outside. If you wanted to be a bunny so bad, all you had to do was ask.” I reply, coughing,

“Mutatio, Mutatio, Mutatio.” I whispered. She changed into a bunny,

“There now, you're his favourite bunny,” I said, laughing.

A gasp comes from behind me and I turn around to see two women. One of the women was Skye, my mate’s, Beta and twin. They were the spitting image, but she was a bit shorter. The other women looked like both of them but younger with blonde hair. She had their green eyes and bone structure. She was wearing a doctor’s jacket and holding a clipboard. My mate’s twin burst out laughing while the other one just stared at me in disbelief,

“Luna, What did you do?” The Doctor asked,

“Please call me Rowena. If you need to use a title, you can call me Demigoddess. I’d prefer it. I’m not your Luna.” I looked at them and smiled,

“I defended myself against a petty b***h who was choking me and yelling, ‘I'M HIS FAVOURITE BUNNY’ I was barely awake and confused so I made her a bunny.” I said with the biggest grin I could muster,

“This is the fucken best thing I’ve ever seen!” Skye cackled,

“Oh, Mae, lighten up. You look like you’re going to be sick!” Still laughing, she nudges her sister,

“He has strict rules against harming his bunnies,” Mae looked at her feet,

“His bunnies? What does that even mean? Honestly nevermind. ” I shook my head,

“I don't want to know. I can take a guess it has to do with the women hanging all over him yesterday. If it is okay with you, Doctor, I would like to enjoy the day outside, possibly even read a book. I’ve been kept locked up in a dungeon and now a hospital room doesn’t seem much better.” I said with authority.

She checked over my vitals while Skye kept laughing. She exited the room and came back with a jacket and purse. She walked up to Mae and said something in their ear,

“You’re clear to go.” Mae assured me,

“I should take you shopping for some new things. I have a feeling you’re going to be here a while.” Skye smirked.

I looked back down at the bunny on the floor and smirked. A woman with raven hair appeared by the door, Mae’s twin. Okay, how many twins run in the family? Just before I could ask, another woman walks in, A redhead who was heavily pregnant. Triplets? The triplets all had green eyes, just different colour hair. Before she locked me away, I remember learning from my mom that wolves with Alpha blood tend to come out in twins or triplets to protect the Alpha bloodline. The redhead stepped forward and engulfed me in an awkward hug,

“You must be my soon-to-be sister. I didn’t get to see you last night because I was inside with the pups, elderly and other pregnant she wolfs. I’m Evie, and this one over here with the permanent scowl is Paisley.” She kept hugging me,

“Why is there a bunny in the hospital?” Paisley turned to Skye and Mae, ignoring me.

Once again, Skye burst out laughing and tried to tell the story but failed. Mae took over and told her what happened, How the wolf strangled me, and how I turned her into a bunny because she kept screaming she was their brother’s favourite. Mae referred to the she-wolf as One. What does that even mean? Evie let out a small giggle while Paisley’s scowl deepened,

“How dare you? My brother will surely have you killed for this. She is his favourite bunny. He’s killed more important people for doing less to them. ” She spits out,

“Now she can stay his favourite bunny forever. He can certainly try to kill me. I know wolves with Alpha blood have a superiority complex but are you really that dumb? Do you truly believe that an Alpha is more powerful than a DEMIGODDESS?” I batted my eyelashes and smiled.

She looked at me, fuming. She picked up the bunny and stormed out. s**t. Ugh, I’m such an i***t! I should be nicer to his sisters. How am I ever going to be accepted if I bully or push them away? I spin around to follow her out the exit and apologize. Skye stops me. She shook her head,

“Let her go. Paisley and One have been best friends since they were children. She really wants her to be our future Luna. She is delusional if she thinks that dumb, manipulative, self-centered barbie would be good for the future of this pack.” Skye huffed,

She looked at her sister and they both nodded their heads. I was relieved that these three were on my side. It would be easier to be accepted by Lachlan if his sisters like me. Mae, Skye and Evie brought me to the packhouse. It had five floors. They showed me to the room I would be staying in for as long as I’m here. It was on the Beta floor. The Alpha was on the top floor: the Beta the fourth, the other siblings on three. A gym, library, a conference room for meetings, and a pool on the second. The first floor is an open concept for the members to enjoy a big kitchen and dining area. After I saw my room, the girls realized I had nothing to wear,

“Let’s go shopping. We will buy you some new clothes, so you don’t have to borrow anyone. We can get you books and stuff too. We should do this before Paisley informs Lachlan of what you did. I have this feeling you’re going to be around a lot longer than my brother will like. We should get you comfortable. You’re a feisty one. I like it. I think we may even be friends. ” She smirked,

“We are coming too!” Mae and Evie said together.

Creepy.

“We need to leave before Lachlan and Jaxs finish their meeting with the other Alphas and Betas,” Skye added,

“ Wait? Jaxs is your mate? Oh. My. Goddess. You look a little like April Kepner from Greys, and He sort of looks like Jackson. Y’all are JAPRIL. I love it!” I squealed,

“They dressed up in scrubs last year for Halloween.” Mae smiled,

“We love Greys. I already like you so much better than the bunnies,” Evie whispered.

We headed to the mall, and they insisted on showing me the perks of Alpha shopping. They took me to a spa where we were all pampered. After the spa, we got our nails done. I did my nails coffin style matte black. Then we went to do our hair. While I was looking at the colours, racks upon racks of clothing appeared. I was told to choose what I liked from them. They were beautiful, just not my style. I ended up getting a few black jeans and some black tops,

“Do you not like the clothes? They are fit for the future Lu- I mean Demigoddess” Mae raised an eyebrow,

“I never really got to pick out clothes and I just want to be able to wear what I want. Is that okay?” I asked,

“Of course, that’s okay. What kind of things are you into?” Evie asked,

“Um, have you heard of Hot Topic?” Mae frowned,

“Is there something wrong with that? I know not everyone is into that stuff, but I like it.” I said softly,

“No, that’s not it. Wear whatever makes you comfortable.” Mae smiled,

“That’s just not Lachlans usual type… If you know what I mean.” Evie finished for her triplet statement,

“ Actually, he was really into the movie ‘The Craft, Winona Ryder, Avril Lavigne and Amy Lee when we were younger.” Skye smiles.

I told my hairdresser I wanted plum. My curly hair never looked so amazing. They were perfect! I never imagined loving my long unruly hair. I had even planned to chop it into a pixie cut like in my dreams, but I saw how healthy it looked for the first time and couldn’t do it. After a few hours in the salon and racks and racks of everything in my size from Hot topic, we were finally heading back. The girls were in love with my new look. I even changed clothes. I was excited to head back. Mae and Evie seemed to be scared of what Lachlan might do. I’m not afraid of the Big BAD Alpha.

Alpha Gideon

I had been sitting in the meeting all day distracted, thinking about the way Rowena’s hair felt in my hands. Last night after I left the bunny’s room. I found myself at the pack Hospital. Mae had just washed her and hooked up IV meds to help strengthen her. I told Mae to leave us. I brushed her hair and just held her for a bit. I told myself it was to comfort Severus, but that was just a lie. I was so distracted by thoughts of her soft hair that I didn’t hear the meeting end. Thank the Moon Goddess for Jaxs answering for me because I was useless. See! One day, knowing my mate, and I’m already an inefficient leader. I need to get rid of her somehow, but just the thought of it makes me uncomfortable.

Paisley was outside the conference room. She had a bunny and a deeper than usual scowl on her face. She ran up to me and told me what had gone down. I mind-linked my other sisters to find out where they were and ordered them home. They had gone shopping with the little witch. How dare they spend my hard-earned money on that so-called mate of mine. I knew Skye hated the bunnies but to allow this was a direct disrespect to me. Siblings or not, I’m their Alpha. After some time, Skye’s blue BMW finally pulled up. Paisley had told the other bunnies what had happened and they spread the word that I would be punishing Rowena. So I wasn’t surprised that a crowd surrounded us. My sisters got out the car first. They had some people come forward and help with the bags. They were endless. How much money did they spend on her? I was even angrier. I stalked over to the car and ripped open the car door. I forgot how to breathe,

“WHAT THE f**k THAT’S MY CAR LACHLAN!” Skye screamed,

I couldn’t respond because Rowena stepped out of the car, unaffected by my anger. It made her makeover even hotter. Her messy blonde locks were now plum and in perfect ringlets that reached down her back. It looked even more fantastic than it had this morning. I was itching to run my fingers through it while I thrust my c**k in her virgin p***y. NO! Bad thoughts. I was shocked to see we had on completely similar outfits. Both of us wearing Doc Martins for shoes. A red flannel as a sweater and a Led Zepplin T-shirt. The only difference? I was wearing jean shorts and I was wearing jeans. I looked at her legs and noticed the scars up and down them. I only saw the ones on her back last night. I’ve never seen anything like it. Even with them, she is the most beautiful women I’ve seen,

“Aren’t you going to punish her?” Two sneered from behind me.

She looked at me weird, and I realize it must have been obvious how I was staring at her. f**k is this some kind of sick joke? I purposely only f****d women like the bunnies so no one would know my genuine preference. Rocker/ Goth chicks. How did she know? I can’t get close to her. I have to force myself to punish her no matter how it makes me feel. I won’t be weak. I reminded myself that I was pissed. Noone touched the bunnies that my rule. Those who break my rules get punished. If I let her get away with this my pack and enemies may see this as a weakness.
