I watched as my dad fought for the pack. He was the beta and got challenge with the Alpha to fight the rivaling pack of untamed wolves. I watched as they both only had my dad in the circle by himself. Our alpha was outside waiting to rejoin it as I stood there and watched. I’m only ten and I do this every time they have to fight. They said I was like their good luck charm.
He told me that the Beta was like the second man that had the perfect way to help out the Alpha. He was the one that told me everything about being a beta and was the one I cared for the most. I was watching him as claws raked down my neck and back. I fell down to my knees as it felt like it was on fire. My dad looked at me as the other two looked at him.
They took advantage of that and killed him right there as if it was planed. My eyes started to water up as our alpha got rid of them as they fled the scene. I cried as my mom came and tried to calm me down. I stood up and ran from it all as I felt the need to get away from it all.
I shot up as that memory was now haunting me. I stood up as my heart was racing like crazy. I had left the Moonsong Pack when I was ten and not at sixteen and a half when I was of age. Right now I live with a new Pack called the MoonHowlers and I was at the bottom of the ranks with a whole bunch of the others. I was told to be the bodyguard for the alpha and I had to obey all of his orders. So I was like his servant and not that Beta I was suppose to be.
I walked out of my little room next to the alpha’s. The beta here eyed me as I crossed past him and went to the kitchen for the days start. I was consider the outsider here but thankfully I had two friends down here in the lower ranks. Kristy Maxwell was the servant to the beta, so we worked close together. Alex Jackson was the one who made sure we all were in order but yet had to help with one of the others. They were the only ones that knew who I truly was and what I could really do.
“Hey Adere,”Kristy said as I walked in,”Master was just in here looking for you.”
“Did you send him to my room?”I asked fixing a bowl of cereal for him and myself,”Or did you lie to him again?”
“He went to your room and saw that you were still asleep but was having some kind of a nightmare,”Alex explained sitting on the counter,”He told us to tell you he wants you to bring that bowl to his room and he wants to talk with you this morning.”
“Just my luck,”I said eating my bowl of food.
“Was it the memory again?”Kristy whispered as I nodded,”It might be a sign to go back home you know.”
“I’m eighteen now Kristy,”I said as I finished my bowl,”I could have left at sixteen and a half so what is the point in it now. I would just be putting myself into more trouble.”
I walked past as they eyed me from afar. I held onto the bowl as I climbed the stairs to his room. I could smell his scent from the hallway that led to his room and it was intoxicating to me. My mate was indeed the Alpha of this pack but only my friends and I know this. I didn’t want people to make a fuss about it for I didn’t know what they would think of it.
I pushed the door open as I saw that he was staring out the window. He did this as he was given this position at only sixteen and sadly he was half a year older than me. I placed the bowl on the table and stood by the door. I was the only one he trusted to see him like this and I could read him like a book. I was told by my dad that it was like a beta instinct. I leaned on the door as he was listening to my pack’s songs that could be heard for miles away. I was told that I had the best voice out of them and now that I was gone you could tell it was missing.
I closed my eyes as the song was a replay in my head. I would sometimes lock my door and make it sound proof to sing with them. It brought me joy to hear the songs so near me and close to my heart. They were singing a song my dad made up for me. I opened my eyes up to see he was swaying to it. I loved to see how happy it made him to listen to them sing. My wolf loved to see this and wanted him to hold me as he did it. I held her down as the song came to an end and he had that lost look in his eye. He told me that he would forever be alone since he had not found his mate yet and I sadly felt guilty for allowing him to think that.
“You wanted to see me,”I said as he turned around.
“Yes I did Adere,”He answered sitting at the table,”I’m guessing we are running low on food aren’t we.”
“I couldn’t find the good stuff,”I said as he motioned me to sit down,”But I will make sure I do next time.”
“It’s fine.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes, but right now I would like to ask you somethings.”
“Fire away.”
“What do you dream of that makes you stir in your sleep so much?”
“Past things that I can’t let go of.”
“What do you think of me as Alpha?”
“You’re amazing Jason. You think of the pack first and not yourself. You are amazing and I know your parents are proud of you for doing all of this.”
“Thanks for that Adere,”He said standing up,”But it’s time to start our day.”
I stood up and picked the empty bowl up as he placed a hand on the small of my back. I straighten up as I felt the tingling sensation through my shirt. I quickly opened the door and walked out of the room. I was scared he was going to do that and find out who I was suppose to be to him. I ran to the kitchen as Alex was telling the others what we were doing today.
I handed the bowl to a maid and she went to go a clean it for me. I took a seat at our table in the for back corner and danged my head on it. I wish life wasn’t so hard for me and was like a fairy tale where the prince tells the princess he loves her or like one of those werewolf books that should be how we really are. Kristy always said if it was like that we would be meaner or more weird than we already are.
Life is going to be harder than we think of it,Mickels voice said in my head, We can only hope it gets better.
Great now Mickel is in my head for the time being. He was the son of my past Alpha at my home pack. We were very close and thankful he was only older by three months. We did everything together and even planned out how we were going to run that pack one day. He was truly the alpha as I was the beta. We made a perfect team and even our parents agreed we would shine higher together and not apart.
“You’re going to lose your brains doing that low life,”Marvin, the beta, said to me,”So stop it right now.”
“Fine,”I said raising up to met his eyes,”But I will do it for Jason and not you.”
Marvin was about six foot with black hair and dark brown eyes. He was the one that hated how close Jason trusted me and not him. I always thought that he looked very different from Jason who had midnight black hair with the most beautiful stormy grey eyes. Jason was five foot six while I was five foot five. He called me fun sized since everyone was around his height. Marvin also knew I was different from them for ALL of this pack’s wolves were dark colored while I was plain white.
Moonsong was a lighter color from them and Marvin had pointed that out to Jason that I was different from them. I had green eyes and pure white hair that looked like snow as my dad said it was. I was also quicker than them and I was flexible. They had black hair and had dark eyes or stormy grey. I was the sore thumb out of this group but no one took notice of me. Kristy and Alex both said I was unique and even Jason said that to Marvin.
“I will get you out of here low life,”He said as Jason walked up,”You're lucky he likes having you around here.”
“I know what you mean,”I said as Jason sat down,”But I will always be here for my Alpha.”
“What are you two talking about?”Jason asked knowing when we talk it is bad.
“Nothing,”Marvin said looking at me,”Where is Kristy?’
“I don’t know,”I said as she walked in looking for someone,”But she did just walk in here.”
He turned around as her eyes landed on him. She ran over and whispered something into his ear. His face morphed into what seemed like fear, confusion, and anger all at once. Wow he does have feelings in that soulless body. He turned to Jason and told him about an alpha and his pack here challenging him to a fight. Jason stood up and tapped my chair for me to get up. Yes I get some action today. I sprung up and led him out to the main living area. There stood tall was the Fire empire and I noticed that there was more than one alpha here. I looked over and saw the Firesong alpha looking around as if looking for me.
The empire left when they saw Jason come in and only one group remained here. He looked at Jason as we stopped and I crouched down into a protective stance I was taught when I was younger. All my fighting was done the way my dad had taught me and it worked everytime for me. He looked at me and laughed at how my white hair followed over my shoulder.
“A girl is your beta,”He said as I wished it was true.
“No he is,”Jason said as Marvin towered over me,”She is my helper, bodyguard, and basicly…”
“The servant girl,”Marvin finished laughing at me.
“Well how about we do this,”He said getting ready.
“If you can get past Adere here,”Jason said as I smiled wickedly.
“Easy since she is just a tiny girl,”The opponent said.
He went after me as I sprung onto him. I had him down as I punched him in the jaw. I was trying something Alex had taught me and so far it was doing good. The guy got me off of him and I flipped to my feet. He looked at me as his claws grew out. I gave an evil smile as mine grew out and I faced him. He went to get up but I ran at him and put him on the ground again. This time it was out of rage from being called a girl as if I couldn’t do anything.
I dug my claws in him as I heard him scream out at me to stop.
