screeching metal, burning ashes, thick scent of blood. Two dead, one still alive. People start to crowd around the car, sirens wailing in the background, searing pain.

one girl still lives, hair dark as night, eyes royal blue, glassed over from being on the brink of death. she's shouting,"No! Let me die! I can't live!" everyone ignoring her wishes. then darkness, not even the slightest ray of hope can penetrate it's way through, it could not shine through oblivion.

Not even her soul. 

PART ONE

      

chapter 1

2 years later

"Ariella, my shake tastes like it has sugar in it!" a snooty voice came from the living room from the pack house.

"It's Splenda Cherri," I answered back. this is my life now. this not-so-awesome, not-so-amazing life. I was a slave to the pack. literally, I did all the cooking, all the cleaning, it was like I wasn't the Beta to the pack. just a maid.

"Why the Hell is there Splenda in my shake." I could feel the horror spreading across her face.

"There's always been Splenda in it!"

"You Bitch! Alpha Nate!" she cried.

Aw crap.

"What." our Alpha cried as he descended down the stairs.

"Ariella is trying to poison me!" Cherri yelled. I didn't have to see Nate's face to know he was angry. I tried to hide behind the kitchen's island hoping he wouldn't try to find me. Nate burst in, swinging the door across the room. when he found me his black hair was tousled and his green eyes dark. he grabbed my arm and hauled me upright,"What did you do to Cherri?" he screamed in my face. his grip tightened when I didn't answer right away.

"Nothing, I just made Cherri's morning shake, the kind she usually drinks." I whimpered. Nate slapped me across the face, "That's not an answer." tears formed in my eyes. When I didn't respond he threw me across the floor, smashing my head on the countertop.

"You will be sleeping outside."

"But Alpha Nate, it's going to rain tonight," I whispered.

"Good."

 

 

A knock on the front door sounded. When nobody went to get it, I walked to the door, receiving glares from the pack I reached for the brass doorknob of the Mahogany door and pulled it open. There beyond the door lied a brown hair, blue eyed boy who was wearing a smile on his face.

"Alex!" I cried.

"Ariella!" he answered back. He took me in a tight embrace and spun me around.

"It's good to see you again." I muffled in his shoulder. He nodded his head,"me too."

"What are you doing here?" I asked.

"I got a break from college our professor quite and they couldn't find a replacement to the semesters over...for now," he added, smirking. I laughed, "And I may have found my Mate." he added. as he did a girl walked in the scene, she had long flowing blonde hair that played on her shoulders and gray eyes that you could get lost in.

"Hi, I'm Kristen," she said. She held out her hand to me but I looked at it funny, she quickly drew her hand away trying to play it off. I smiled,"in this family, we don't do handshakes." I outstretched my arms to her, she quickly hugged me, relieved that I didn't hate her. When she pulled back she turned to Alex,"Your sister looks a lot like you."

"I say more like her mom." I frowned.

"Either way, you are absolutely beautiful, and lucky to have a brother like him. she smiled at me. I gave her a weak smile.

"How are you," Alex said, voice getting suddenly serious.

"Fine."I lied.

"No Ariella, how are you?" he asked again, leaning in.

"I might wake up with a bruise on my face tomorrow, but nothing serious...yet." i shrugged one lean shoulder and saw Kristerns eyes get big. horror gripping her face.

"I swear I'm going to-"

"No Alex, you'll get disgraced from the Pack, we might be the Beta's but what Alpha says, goes." i said voice getting softer.

"What happened to you?" Alex gripped my shoulders, "I got slapped and i have to sleep outside tonight-"

"It's going to rain!" Kristen interjected.

"I know."

"Does your Alpha know?" she asked bewildered.

"Yes."

"That is what you call an Alpha! he is nothing but a- Alex! from now on i am going to protect her, you and I, " she said suddenly.

"You can't!"

"I can." she said back at me.

"You'll get hurt because of me!" I whispered.my eyes getting wide.

"A chance I'm going to take." suddenly the front door burst open," Ariella, cook us food now! my pack is hungry!" An angry Alpha Nate yelled through the door.

"Oh, hello Alex," Nate calmed down, "Who is this?" he asked pointing to Kristen.

"My Mate."

"Pleased to meet you," he said in a lighter tone," I'm Nate, the Alpha." Kristen shook his hand. with the speed of light, she knocked him on the curb,"If you think about hurting a hair on that girls head, you will have to answer to me." Kristen locked eyes with Nate, he broke away lokking at me, glaring daggers. Kristen cleared her throat.

"Welcome to the pack."

 

I cooked gluten free pasta and garlic bread, poured wine in glasses and when i was done, Alpha Nate ecused me from the table, i was never allowed to eat with the pack.

ever.

I took a bag of Cheetoes and left for my shabby room in tears. I cried, my life will never be the same again. my mom used to tell me," you always have to have a little rain before you have a rainbow."  i used to always think she was right. but if she is anymore, this is no storm, this is hurricane Catrina.

After i was through crying, i layed on my bed, my small bed.i could barly fit, my legs swung out. it wasn't always my room, i had another one. it had a window and a side bed, another small bed on the south wall, a bathroom, a large closet, a personalized desk, a couch a T.V. a dresser. back when our current alpha wasn't the alpha, they let me paint my room scarlet blue. now i only had a bed, a small desk, and a closet, no windows. a small pittering came on the door. i thought it was Nate coming to tell me that i had to go sleep outside now, but the a small feminen voice came through," It's me, Kristen."

i stifled a tear,"Come in." Kristen emerged, blonde hair cascading down her back, and grey eyes livid. She smiled at me,"I brought you pasta." she held out a plate.

"It;s okay, i already ate."

"Oh, yes, because a bag of Cheetoes is food." she said sarcasticly rolling her eyes, "Now eat."

I shook my head, "Ariella, your going to starve." she sighed.

"Don't you see i already have?" i said pointing to a picture on my desk, it was one with me Alex and my parents. We were on the bridge in Hooken, i was fat and chubby, while Alex was bone skinny. We both changed, i became the skinny one while Alex filledout and gained muscle.

"Oh Ariella!" she set the plate down and came to embrace me, she felt just like mom. It's been so long scince i can remember what a real motherly hug felt like, i buried my face in her shoulder. there was a banging on the door, "Ariella it's ten o'clock, you know what to do!" cried Alpha Nate.

"Yes Alpha." Kristen walked with me to the door, she opend it," if you hurt her-"

"I'm not going to hurt her!" he growled,"But she will be sleeping outside for a week." he walked away.

"How old is he?"

"a year older than me, 17," I said.

"I should not have a seventeen year old bossing me around!"Kristen cried in mock horror.

"Good-night Ari." nobody called me Ari anymore,"Good-night." tears came to my eyes.

 

Just as i said, it rained. the rain soaked my hair plastering it to my face. i cradled myself in a corner, waiting for the sun to rise. if it ever will... i don't think I'll be able to sleep

chapter 2

"Ariella, wake up." a soft voice prodded. I groaned and turned to my side.

"That's not how you wake up." It said again. I waved off the holder of the voice, they gave out an impatient sigh,"You asked for it." suddenly something hit my leg hard. I sat up and rubbed my thigh,"What was that for?" I said I saw Alex above me.

"You're dripping wet and it's time for school," he stated simply. I got up, hair sticking to my face

"I don't want to go to school." I knew what would happen if I went to school, go to class, act like a mindless zombie and when I get home, waiting for me are men. they come to beat me. It's always every other day, Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. at least they have enough decency to leave the weekends off.

"Too bad, you're going." he said.

"Kristen, get Ariella ready!" Alex shouted. It was still dark outside, it must've been six in the morning.

"Why so early?"

"I know, but it's for the best." Alex looked over at Kristen.

"Why," i asked tilting my head.

"Because I know something you don't."

"So do I!" I protested. Alex stared at me hard, "Fine, I'll go." i gave up, "For you."

"Come on Ariella, we have alot of work to do!" Kristen sang.

"We? Work?" I looked helplessly at Alex, he just laughed and shrugged his shoulders. Kristen led me inside.

"Now, first we are going to get you cleaned up," she said turning right, into a hallway,"Then we fix your hair and your makeup." she finnished stopping at a door. "No offence, but why the Hell do I need to get
