Chapter 1
Allison’s P.O.V
————————————-
“Someone like you will never Amit to anything. You can’t even cook right you stupid mutt” The Alpha said. I tried my best to keep my anger down, I am an alpha female. And I deserve respect. Or at least I was before his pack slaughtered my parents and all but a few of the remaining members of the Midnight sun.
“Yes sir, sorry sir” I bowed my head to him as I apologized. I hated him with every piece of me, yet I couldn’t do anything about it. I could run away and become a rouge, but because I didn’t have my wolf I would be dinner in seconds.
I started on breakfast again, making pancakes, sausage, bacon and eggs. With a pack of 200 members they eat a lot. So I had to make large portions, making extra in case they didn’t want any and I could eat today. But that rarely happens. The Alphas Son makes sure of that. He will throw any extras out in the dumpster behind the pack house. I may be hungry, but I’m not that hungry.
As I finish up the last touches on breakfast I set the tables for pack members to eat. Taking out the plates and silverware first, then the cups. Once I have all of that finished, I start setting up the food, making sure their in their respective places and putting out multiple syrups and sauces, as well as juices, milk and water pitchers. Once I hear pack members coming down the stairs, I go back to my room. The one place I have some type of peace.
As I settle down on my cot, I hear growling. Which can only mean one thing. Alpha Dax was not happy.
“YOU STUPID MUTT! YOU MESSED EVERYTHING UP” Alpha exclaimed bursting into my room. I jumped at the sudden loudness that was of my quiet room. “YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO MAKE WAFFLES NOT PANCAKES! HOW STUPID CAN YOU BE!?”
“I’m sorry Alpha, we were out of waffle batter so I had to make pancakes instead” I said, bowing my head in his sudden appearance.
“I DONT CARE! You going to pay for this!” He says, I just nod my head. He leaves the room, stomping and growling on his way out. That alone confused me. Usually if I do something he thinks is wrong he takes me to the basement and beats me. Today he didn’t. Which makes me think we have a visitor coming today.
I leave my room and go to the guest bathroom down the hall to brush my long, wavy brunette hair. As I look in the mirror, as I can see is my mother. My brown hair and green eyes along with my bottom nose are from her, but my bone structure comes from the malnutrition and starvation this pack has inflicted on me.
I change out of my baggy grey sweatpants and my oversized shirt, into some jeans and a baggy dark blue T-Shirt. As I brush my teeth I can hear girls squealing and boys hollering. I finish up and head out to see what their all going on about, when I smell the most delicious scent. It was like fresh rainfall and freshly baked chocolate chip cookies. As I round the corner, following the scent, I bump into someone.
“Watch where your going Mutt!” As I look up I see the Alphas daughter, Christine snarling at me. I Bow my head and apologize. She scoffs and backhands me across the face, making me hit the floor. She cackles and walks away. My hand immediately goes to the spot on my right cheek where she hit me. That’s gonna leave a bruise.
I get up, shaking the pain from the slap off and walk towards the front door. Girls are whispering and smiling as they look out the door. I look out of the window and see a very handsome man shaking the Alphas hand. His brown eyes hard and focused and shaggy blonde hair blowing in the light summer breeze. His tan skin glistening in the sunlight.
“Wow” I whisper to myself in awe. This man was absolutely beautiful. As the wind blows again I smell that delicious scent, making my mouth water. As I’m about to walk towards the door, The Alphas son, Xander stops my dead in my tracks with a glare.
“What do you think your doing Mutt!? Go upstairs and clean out Two of our best guest rooms for the arriving Alpha and his Beta!” He growls in my face. I just nod and head upstairs. I enter our biggest guest room and get to fixing it up, making the bed, stocking the bathroom with necessities such as a tooth brush and tooth paste along with body wash, shampoo and conditioner.
Making sure the cupboard in the bathroom is stocked with towels I head to the next room to do the same thing all over again. As I’m finishing up I hear footsteps coming up the stairs. I hurry up with my finishing touches and dash out of the room and down the hall on the opposite end.
As I was making my way towards the stairs I heard voices and something told me to stop and listen. So I did. I don’t know what made me want to listen in on this conversation so bad, but my gut was telling me it was important.
“I don’t know man. I pretty much saw all the females in the pack and none of them were my mate. But she’s here. I can smell her mouth watering scent. It’s like pineapples and roses. Weird combination, but I like it.” I gasped, was he the man I smelt before?
“Hey! Who’s there!?” The guy yelled. I hurried down the stairs and around the corner before anyone could spot me. Man that was close. It seemed to be almost 10am so I needed to get started on lunch if I wanted it to be done by noon. Otherwise the Alpha would have my head.
I walked down the hall and entered the door to my right and walked into the black and red colored kitchen. Stupid coloring. I know. But the Alpha himself picked it out. And everything goes his way. I rolled my eyes just thinking about how he gets everything done for him with a snap of a finger. A stupid Alpha with stupid taste.
On Today’s lunch menu, Written down in the Alphas sloppy handwriting was,
-BLT sandwiches (4 each pack member)
-Salad
-Fruits (watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew)
-Lemonade
-Water
-Soda
-Beer
-lots of bacon on the side
(Try not to f**k it up this time)
I snorted at the last line on this “to do” list. I didn’t f**k anything up. He’s just a pompous ass who thinks if things aren’t exactly how he wants it, he has the right to hit a pack member. what kind of an Alpha thinks that way? Ugh.
As I got to work a few omegas passed through the kitchen whispering and glaring at me on their way out. Because I don’t have my wolf yet my hearing is still as shitty as a humans. So I couldn’t hear exactly what they were saying. But I did catch a glimpse of their conversation.
“…do you think he would pick her? Oh wait, never mind. She’s too ugly for anyone to pick anyways” they snickered and walked out of the kitchen. What were they talking about? And who is this “he” they were mentioning?
I shook off my confusion and continued making lunch. I decided to add a few sides to the lunch menu since I knew the Alpha would forget multiple things that were a necessity during lunch. Especially for the Alphas daughter who has apparently gone on a diet. Whatever the hell that means I guess. Once I was done with the preparations and everything was set out on the table, I waited by the far wall until pack members started trailing down the stairs.
Now, let’s get one thing straight, just because the Alpha’s a duck and so are his “offspring” it doesn’t mean the whole pack has turned against me. Few of the pack members thanked me for making their lunch and would occasionally give me a couple dollars for my trouble, to of which I put in an old shoe box to save.
As I was getting ready to go back to my room, I was stopped by someone. Someone who had a touch like no other. The scent of something so delicious. And the looks of a Greek god. I paused, and shook with fear not knowing if this man would hurt me. Or worse. Reject me.
“Hello little mate.” He exclaimed.
Well s**t.
