{9 years later} “Little servant girl!” I heard the same sing-song mocking male voice I will never seem to get out of my head directed at me as I was removing my books from my locker, looking up to see a tall man my age with black shaggy hair and tattoos covering sixty-five percent of his body waving me down. I rolled my eyes, shutting my locker, turning my attention towards him. “What is it, Cree?” I asked in a monotone voice. He smiled mischievously, I did not want to know what he has up his sleeve this time. So I managed to plaster a fake smile as best as I could put on. “You are to sit with me at lunch today, seeing as how tomorrow is your well-renowned eighteenth birthday!” He leaned on my locker, never looking away from me. They had already turned eighteen, but I know my shift was going to happen soon. To say I was a bit afraid was an understatement, seeing as how I will be alone for it. My white hair had grown considerably long past my bottom, I was curvy for a she-wolf, but that never bothered me and never stopped me from having the confidence I needed. I sighed, I cannot say no to the future Alphas, seeing how the Luna made sure to remind me of that, so I nodded, walking with Cree to sit with them as his eyes lit up with excitement. I was afraid to sit with them, I didn't like how I got teased or picked on with every passing moment due to my unusual appearance. Having white hair with red eyes was exactly normal in the werewolf community. “Maybe they will become our mates!” Huh? I looked around, wondering where that voice was coming from, almost as if the voice read my mind. She answered. “Surprise! I’m your wolf! My name is Aoi. It’s finally nice to meet you Lilly!” She said excitedly. I was shocked to say the least, as exciting it is to have my wolf, it seems a bit early for her to be showing. With the bell ringing bringing me out of my thoughts, I ran to my next class, Mrs. Nord, she was a strict teacher, but she was never rude to me because I was practically her favorite. She taught math as if it was art to me. It seemed as if it was boring art, because I could understand what was going on. I was a very quick learner, so I had no issues with my studies. That gave me more time to talk to my wolf. Also, to figure out why “How were you able to talk to me when I was eight?” I asked, wanting to know. “I could only do that because you were in danger. You are a very special being, Lilly!” She howled in my mind, smiling “Special? How can I be special? I am just a servant.” I said simply, my smile faltering. I really didn’t have anything special about me. “You will know in time what I mean, my love.” She smiled at me. I was just curious as to why she was here. I wasn't eighteen yet. "How am I able to talk with you? I am not eighteen yet." I tapped my fingers on the desk. "In time everything will be revealed to you, but for now I cannot tell you anything yet, my dear. I will be here watching." With that last statement she retreated back into my mind. I sighed, dreading lunchtime. The morning trudged on, and soon lunchtime rolled around. As I got up from my desk, I grabbed my things as I went to the dining hall. I entered the cafeteria looking around, I spotted the three triplets waving at me to sit, their hooker-like girlfriends attached by their sides. Of course, those three would be with them, they never left those boys' side, not even for a minute. Something about the three of them sitting with such snobbish girls really irritated me, but I couldn’t figure out why. It's hard to imagine seeing the triplets with such snobbish-looking girls. I sighed, reluctantly, I sat across from the three of them at the round table. “Ah, here she is finally. I thought you had gotten lost!” One of the triplets laughed as the girls giggled. I sat down with an expressionless face, ready to get this hour over with. “So, why am I sitting here today?” I asked, staring at the table behind them as my friend gave me a worried glance. I just nodded to her ever so slightly. Asta has been my rock through all of this torture. She knows what I have been through, she was my best friend, my rock. She was beautiful. Her long brown hair, ocean blue eyes, she was the kindest girl I met when I first started here. “Well, we heard from the boys you’re turning eighteen tomorrow!” The blonde-haired girl said, placing a shitty manicured hand on my shoulder, bouncing excitedly. I tried hard to hide my disdain, but she was making that quite difficult. I sat there letting the woman insult me with a blank expression, never breaking eye contact with the triplets. “Oh, come on Brittney, we should celebrate her birthday early!” The red-headed girl said to Brittney. “Oh? What did you have in mind, Kelly?” Brittney asked with a certain light in her brown eyes, as Brittney went over to the brown-haired girl winking, then whispered something in her ear. I stopped paying attention as my stomach began to get a bad feeling. “Would you like to do the honors, Mia?” Kelly gestured to me. "Now, Lilly, close your eyes!" I heard Mia snicker. She started to get up with something behind her back. I had a feeling this was not going to end well. I sighed, closing my eyes, knowing what was about to happen. “Oh, but I would be delighted Kelly!” She laughed, walking towards me. The three of them started to count to 3. 1…2…3!! Splash! I could smell the chemicals. I reached up to feel my hair. It felt silky yet had a thick texture to it. I stared at my hand, it was black. I just stared up at them. I was internally panicking, but I wasn't going to let them see that, so I held the same blank expression so they didn't get the satisfaction that they wanted out of me. “Aww, is that how you react to our gift! Hahahahah!” Kelly said while laughing hysterically. The other two were huddled over laughing. The triplets said nothing, looking away. “Happy birthday freak. This black color suits you. It could be you're new look.” Brittney sneered at me. I stood up, my heart was beating so fast. Blinking, I glared at the Alphas as I quickly exited the dining hall. I started towards the exit of the school, opening the double doors and running out of there as quickly as possible. I was angry, hurt, confused, but most of all sad. I ran to my favorite spot that had a small waterfall leading down a stream with flowers surrounding the area. I panted as I fell to my knees staring at my reflection in the pond. Paint…it was all over my hair. I sobbed as I hunched over hugging myself. I screamed and cried, feeling defeated. After a while, I sighed, I decided to strip my clothes off and wash this disgusting paint out of my hair. I stepped into the water and just let the coolness relax me.
