Chapter 1
EVELYN’s POV
"Eve wake up, we have a lot of work to do!" A loud voice called me and I knew it was Isabelle. I opened my eyes.
"I'm up! Don't shout near my ears, I will become deaf." I told her as I looked at her all dressed for today.
Shit! I am late again but again you can't expect me to be on time when I sleep at midnight can you? After finishing all the pending chores left by my dear future Alpha I get to sleep when everyone else is sleeping after a tiring day and I don't even get proper rest.
"You're Late Eve and if you don't get ready the devil will again scold you and insult you in front of everyone." Isabelle said in a concern laced tone
I know she is just worried about my ass getting beaten up.
"I will join you in 10 minutes I promise." Saying so,I ran towards the common washroom where all the Omegas take baths.
After getting ready I ran downstairs to see every omega running here and there. Why? Today our pack has hosted a ball for the Lycan king who is searching for his mate. He is going to every pack to check if they have his mate or not and it's our pack's turn. Did I mention that he is a hybrid as well? Seems like I didn't.
"Hey you lazy scum! Why are you so late huh? Who will work on your behalf? Do you think you're some Luna here who will order around? Mop the floor and clean it like before. I don't want any tardiness today at work. If the Lycan king gets upset with us because of anything I will kill you with my own hands." The head of omegas shouted at me.
She always behaves in a pathetic manner with me. Even though she treats other omegas in a better manner she never leaves a chance to berate me. Maybe I'm favourite when it comes to insults and degrading when it's not even my fault.
"I am sorry I will do it right away," I said and started working without wasting time.
Today is so much extra work and I couldn't even eat properly because of it. Tonight is my 18th birthday and here I'm working without even eating or taking a break.
I hope today I will find my mate and then we will leave from here or at least if he is from here then properly will be nice to me. At 12 o'clock sharp I will meet my wolf and she will help me to find my mate.
While cleaning the floor I saw a pair of high heels and boots walking exactly from the place where I just mopped. Oh hell no! They didn't walk here with dirty shoes again.
"Clean that place, it's dirty, we don't want dirt anywhere." the ever so irritating voice of my so-called future Luna entered my ears.
"I just cleaned that place Claire only if you noti…." I couldn't finish the rest because of a loud smack on my face
Nobody bothered to react to whatever happened because this has happened many times to me. Now I have started forgetting the number of times I got hit by him. The future Alpha of this pack is Zach Williams.
I guess he has some personal enmity with me because his behaviour is nothing like an Alpha's behavior should be with his pack mates. I know I'm an omega but does it change that I'm under his protection?
This is another reason I want to find my mate and leave from here as soon as possible.
Pulling my hair in a tight grip he made me look at him and said
"How f*****g dare you b***h to call my mate with her name? She is your future luna and you will address her as one. Apologies to her right now," I shook a bit hearing this voice as tears started flowing from my eyes
I don't if it was from pain or humiliation or maybe from both. I can feel the wetness on my lips. He successfully bruised my cheek and lip on my birthday. I hope I get my mate today who will protect me from this torture and humiliation.
"Why are you quiet? Apologies mutt! You're not a Luna nor you will become ever so f*****g do what I said." Zach says and Claire smirks at me
They really love to torment me for some reason, actually not only them but everyone in the pack except the omegas maybe because they know that even though I'm treated as an omega here I originally belong from an Alpha bloodline. That's why they all rub it on my face that even after being from a powerful bloodline I'm not a Luna. Only they are good to me, others, let's not talk about it.
"I am sorry Luna. I will clean it again." Saying I waited for Zach to leave my hair which he did
I continued my work ignoring the burning sensation on my face. I don't have time to fix it now, after finishing the work I ate my food and got ready for the ball. We need to serve the guests attending the ball. Isabelle, my only friend, managed to get some ice and ointment for my face. I thanked her for the kindness she showed.
The current Alpha and Luna both are neutral about me. No hate or love can be shown from their side. Secretly they also hate me. That's why they never stopped their son from abusing me and from that everyone else got the privilege to abuse me. Other omegas are treated better than me.
I looked at myself and I looked good if I ignored the split lip and purple bruise on my face. I don't have any makeup to hide it otherwise I would have done that for sure. Who wants to look ugly on their birthday right?
