SERENA’S POV ‘Wake up Serena, the sun has risen’. There was a continuous bang on the door which was now giving me a headache. Groaning in my sleep, I yelled at the person. ‘Shut up, I am coming’. The banging stopped, and the silence refilled in my small but clean room. I sighed in relaxation and opened up my blue eyes, looking at the yellowish ceiling above me, frustrated, I jerked up on the bed and started looking around as if it was the first time I had come to this room, when in reality I have spent almost four years and could walk here with closed eyes and will not fall and hit by anything, not because I am smart but because except a small bed and a small with single door cupboard there was nothing else in this room, comparing it to my old room I had when I was living with my father I can feel a pang in my heart. ‘What a mess my life is’ I muttered and fell onto my bed again. Today I was too tired and had no energy to lift my body and drag it to the kitchen where other girls like me have probably started their chores. ‘Serena! Beta Benjamin is awake and will be down any minute. Better you stand up if you don’t want to be punished’. I eyed the door debating on responding her or not, Isabella is one of my good friend here and she always beware me of the threats that could surround me and that’s how I am still saved from the punishments of here. ‘I told Ava that I am coming’ I couldn’t stop the annoyance getting into my voice, who couldn’t be, after all everyone wants to have a long sleep. ‘Yeah and five minutes had already passed to it’ I opened the door revealing a petite figure standing across me, wearing an apron over her off white dress whose flowers had already lost their color and now match perfectly with the base color of the dress, she is of the same age as mine, in fact she is few months younger than me but was brought here before me hence plays the role of my senior here. I left the door open, letting her to come in to my room and make my bed meanwhile I was changing in to one of few clothes I had with me, not bothering to brush my hair I lifted all of them up and tied a tight bun and well was all ready to perform my duties for today. ‘I have heard that Alpha Garrette is very anxious today and is continuously scolding his warriors for acting to be at their best’ Isabella whispered in my ear while we were walking out of the maid’s area which was not very far from the pack house, instead it was just behind it and by using the back door we can get in to the pack house hardly in a minute. I gave her a surprising look while pushing the door and getting in to the big and luxurious Kitchen. ‘Thank God, you came’ Ava sighed in relief. ‘Why what happened?’ wearing my apron, getting ready for work, I asked her, whereas Isabella resumed her work which she had probably left in between to wake me up. ‘Beta Benjamin had just left the kitchen and was asking about you’ Ava told us. ‘Okay’ I picked up the bowl to make the batter for the pancakes. ‘I always wonder, do these pancakes fill their tummy?’ Ava tilted her head and asked, I chuckled at her cute expressions, she is one year younger than me and will stay here for another one year until she turns eighteen. ‘I think it does, that’s the reason they daily eat them’ shrugging I added and started to whisk. ‘So, you are finally leaving after two weeks?’ Isabella’s question spread a beautiful smile on my face and I think it will be on there’s too when their time will come. ‘Yes, I will be free. It will feel so good to be back in the world of human’ I sighed in content, just the thought was enough to make me happy, going back to from where I belong will be the most satisfying feeling for me. ‘It will indeed’ we all agreed, after all living with the wolfs is very unreal, it took all of us and those who are brought on daily basis a lot of time to digest the fact that the characters in fantasy stories we love actually exists and they are not at all that much sweet and lovely like it is shown in the stories, in fact they are very aggressive and ready to tear you down if you show them a little bit of attitude. ‘Girls! I have a hot news for you’ here comes the fourth and last member of our little group, Olivia who is fifteen years old and was brought here half a year ago, she was very afraid of these giant people and always cry for her parents who had ditched her and being a coward used her to pay off the liabilities they have on them because they failed to pay them, we all human here have more or less the same stories. Garrette Bloodmoon is the Alpha of Bloodmoon pack and also does the business in our human world taking advantage of its human form, they run a financial company there and lend the money to businesses who are in crisis and need loans to stable their business, they gave easy repayment plan but charges high interest, well, I don’t how does their system works but when the borrower fails to pay off they take us children with them because that is their condition to keep us children as mortgage, who the hell does that? In our human world I never heard of it and can never imagine about it but apparently looks like these werewolves have their own way of banking, which only make loss of us children who are at the age of teenage and the terms says that we can leave at the age of eighteen as that is how they plan the repayments of their loans I guess, told you they had their own banking rules. My story is no different than others, I was brought here four years back and the reason was same, my father took huge loan from them to save his business and was making his payments on time until once again his business was down and he couldn’t pay them resulting I am here making breakfast, cleaning their room and running errands for them. What happened to me four years back was a huge shock because my father was not an abusive father we listen from teenagers going through tough time, in fact he was the most loving and caring dad one could ask for, after my mom left us alone when I was hardly two years old and needed her attention and love badly she chose to leave me alone with my father. We were a happy family until these creatures intervene in our peaceful life, well if we see a broader picture this told me the reality of my father that all these years he was just faking his love and when got the chance get rid of me for forever. No, you are wrong, if you thought that after getting released from here I will go back to him, I have learned my lesson. Something I appreciate about these giant dogs despite how they force us to do their chores is that, they let us study and provide us limited basic necessity, we have three meals a day and no they are not leftovers, but after all this we all are still not happy because we feel like a captive and we do not belong to this place, we are human being, f*****g human being and they are dogs, and to tell you, yes I hate dogs, not before but now. I was again lost with talking to my inner self until Olivia nudged me, obviously not happy with me being absent mind when she has something very juicy and yummy gossip for all of us. ‘Sorry, I was lost. What were you saying?’ I close the tap and wiped my hands from the apron I was wearing.
