Trapped

Episode1

I heard a car pulling up. They are home early tonight. I hope they go upstairs so they don’t see I haven't finished the nightly chores yet. As soon as the door opened, all I heard was my mother yelling my name. I have never hated a word as much as I do when she yells. My name is Ella Rose Campbell (you can call me Rose). I'm the daughter of Alpha Marcus Campbell and Luna Jade Campbell. I have an older brother, Anthony, who's next in line as alpha. When I get to the door I'm greeted with a smack across my face. How dare you make eye contact with me! said Luna Campbell. Go get me a cup of tea and have it brought to my room right away! Then she stormed up the stairs. My father, Alpha Campbell, grabbed my arm as I started to walk off to get mother dearest her tea. You need to make sure everything in the house is spotless and ready for an event this weekend. I just got word that great leaders from around the world are coming and it's my job to host the event this year, so it needs to be perfect. You'll be serving and if you do a good job you can have your birthday off of work. I was so excited, but I didn't dare show it. Instead, I said yes sir and asked what color theme he would like this year.

I took off to the kitchen to finish tonight's tasks and get started planning everything else. A couple of hours went by, and I'm finally done. Just as I'm about to head down to my room in the basement, my brother walks in with his best friend and future beta of the pack, Marcus. I back up and give them space to go around me and make sure to keep my eyes down. Then I smell the alcohol on them. Oh no they've been drinking heavily tonight. This isn't good. I tried to make a dash for the door, but Marcus grabbed me and pulled me to him laughing, saying I shouldn't anger the big bad wolf. My brother thinks it's funny when his friend treats me like this, since I'm just dirt to him. Just as Marcus is trying to force his tongue into my mouth, Luna Campbell walks in and grabs me by the hair and starts dragging me to the basement. How dare you try to seduce the future beta. I knew you were a little slut, said Luna Campbell. I tried to explain what happened as she kept smacking me, but it's always like that. I do all the wrong and everyone else is perfect in her eyes. I lay there after my beating thinking what my life would have been like if I was born 1st or at least born somewhere else.

The next day i woke up to my alarm at 5am to start everyone's breakfast. I was met by some of the other omegas and the female gamma of the pack, Tris. If you're not familiar with pack ranks, alpha (leaders) beats (2nds), gammas (3rd) and omegas are the lowest of lowest. She was telling us about the menu for the day and what times everything needed to be ready. Dottie, another omega, was writing it all down, she basically acted like the mother of the omegas. She was older, somewhere around her 40's with brown greying hair and dark eyes. Someone said once that she was the mother of Luna Campbell, meaning my grandmother, but she denied it, but I think it could be true. As the Luna ages, I can see some resemblance. I start with the pancakes; it takes a lot of food to feed even our small pack. The Alpha, Luna and Anthony eat away from the rest of the pack in a special dining room while everyone else just eats in the main dining hall. They always think they are so much better than everyone.

As the days passed, I finally had everything ready for the event. The gold and blue colors go so nicely around all the exposed wood. Luna Campbell came in with Gamma Tris. They had new uniforms for us so we could look nice for the event. I'm so excited. I haven't gotten new clothes in years. Some of the girls would give me handydowns but nothing new. I'm always grateful, but I'm so happy right now and for some reason my dress is a little different than the others, but I don't question it. Gamma Tris started to hand out bags with hair and makeup supplies in them. Mine was different again and now I'm getting really curious. The Luna approached me with another female I didn't know and told me to follow them upstairs to a guest suite. There she ordered the girl to do my hair and make-up. When she was done and I had my dress on, the women went to get the Luna to show her the finished product. While she stepped out, I slipped to the full-sized mirror and just stared at myself. My brown wavy hair was done perfectly in a half up and down style. My lips were as red as any rose I've ever seen. My eyes had this smokey look to them, bringing out the brownish amber color. My naturally tan skin looked amazing in the deep red dress. It fit me like a glove hugging every part of my body, but not too tight to where I couldn't move. Moments later, Luna came in with the lady following behind. She stopped and smiled and said this will do. You'll be serving us at the head table do not by any means, mess this up, or your life will be over. I told her I would do my best to make sure her evening was perfect. I mean, after all, Alpha Campbell told me I could have a day off if I did.
