KATHERINE
"I, Alpha Xavier of the Greyhound Pack rejects you filthy omega as my fate." He grunted leaning into my face and squinting like he wasn't seeing my face properly so I had to push the hair out of my face to give him a clearer look. Another pinch from Marina on my thumb and it hurt like a bitch. Hold on, it isn't the pinch that is hurting me this much. It's the pain of the rejection, why does the moon goddess have make everything strenuous for me? "Let it be known to all werewolves present that the house of the Moonwillows and the Greyhound Pack at large will not accept an Omega, a weakling as a member of our pack not to talk of a weakling and from the whispers I hear, a weakling that is also a orphan." He sneered as I fell on my knees in pain, tears trickling from my eyes. Darn this kind of pain! It's too heavy than anything I've had to face in my entire life. "Katherine, are you okay?" I heard Marina's voice and amidst the pains, I stared at her. "Marina, get up. I can have people talking shit about me and I'll keep my head in the game but when it involves you, it would all be unbearable." I can't tell how I sounded but I was pretty sure it would be along the lines of been awfull and going through painful agony and a desperate voice that didn't want her to get slammed because of me. "Infact, for the pleasure of this occasion; I'd like to sell her off." He announced and everyone clapped like it was supposed to be a thing of joy but my eyes widened in horror. I'm sure it's a thing of joy for them but the way. "Sell me off?" I scoffed as I looked up at him from my kneeling position, the pain was easing as the moments flew by and it was getting unbearable. "What gives you the right to talk back to an Alpha?" One Alpha from the lots that were present shut me down and I could only stare at him, words suitable for the situation escaping my mind. "A little punishing should tame her mouth. Guards, give her 30 lashes of the whip." Alpha Xavier ordered but before I could open my mouth to protest, two pack soldiers had already gotten my side bounding my hands as they forced me to my knees and it began. *Slash* With each lash cutting into my body, life and death flashed before my eyes and I was unable to make any coherent sounds. Just muffles and whimpers as I saw my parents calling out to me on one hand and Marina pulling me to come with her in the other. I shut my eyes and let the tears roll out with pursed lips till it was over and they unbound me but my body was too numb to move so I just remained in the same position. "Isn't it a taboo that an Alpha as powerful as I am would be mated to this weak filthy omega of no class and apparently no family?" He asked snarling and the crowd answered in the affirmative. It must feel nice for them to be able to talk without been hushed in deciding someone else's fate "She is my fated mate and here by my property but I do not want her neither as a Luna or as a slave, I have a right to sell her off so whoever is interested in buying this piece of shit as a servant can state it now and she would be yours. She doesn't worth much only some few pieces of gold." He bellowed perusing the crowd for anyone that indicated interest while my heat thumped in my chest. Getting rejected was one thing but getting sold was off limits. "But you rejected me. You gave up the right of owning me, that means you're not eligible to selling me off right?" I queried in slow voice as the last thing I wanted him to find out right now was that I was crying and all my insides were broken because of him. He was an Alpha and I wouldn't lie but that little glimmer of hope that I'd be a Luna had crossed my mind when he called me his mate. Not only are my hopes shattered, my dreams are crushed. "You will shut up and do as you're asked, it's not like anyone has any use for you. No one would pick you anyways." The Alpha of my pack yelled out loud, anger visible on his face and in his tone so I bent my head in shame. Doing what I always learnt to do, remaining irrelevant. "I'll buy her." A gruesome voice that sounded like they belonged to the devil himself rang out and my heart skipped a few beats. How hard would it have been for everyone to just hate me and not want me? Everyone's eyes went to the direction of the voice and unfortunately for me, it was another Alpha that everyone referred to as the devil king, Alpha of the most powerful pack through out the clan, the Alpha king himself, Alpha King Derek. "She'll cost you 150 gold pieces." Xavier splattered thrown into a slight shock that someone was willing to buy me but hold up, he said I'm worthless. Should 150 pieces of gold not to be too much a price for someone worthless. Now that made me hope that the Alpha King would change his mind but as always, my hopes were crashed. "I'll buy her." He said more vehemently this time, walking up to Alpha Xavier and dumped a little tiny bag of gold pieces on his hands. That should be twice as much pieces of gold. Katherine, face the reality. I'm sold out. To the devilish Alpha King Derek no less. If I don't pass out due to the pain that was running through my spine, then I would faint just for this revelation.KATHERINE "No Katherine, you can't go. You can't leave with Alpha King Derek, there has to be a way." Marina was pacing, almost like someone that had a pair attack inside her tiny home but that was once my shelter and home. "Oh great, do you have an idea how I'm supposed to avoid 'The Alpha King' the one that would go to the ends of the Earth to find what belongs to him?" I questioned with a sarcastic smile as I out my little belongings inside of a sling bag. The Alpha king had given me the rest of the day to say my farewells and pack my belongings as we would be journeying back to his pack the next day. He had been asked if letting me go to gather my things weren't a mistake but he had said in a tone loud and clear: "I'm not worried about that, she won't try to escape. And even if she does, she'll never be too far to find." The smile on his lips was too disturbing and if I thought the blazing of Xavier's eyes was dangerous when his inner wolf peeked, then there are simply no
KATHERINE"Okay. How is that possible? I'd rather have my brain splattered all over this room than accept to be a breeder." I stated, standing up from the bed abruptly as I stared at her , my eyes widening in jorror."Well girlie, when you got sold, you weren't given options on what to be wen you get here. You're rather lucky that you weren't recruited for cleaning and brushing of the toilet floors or the pack palace floors. You received the fair end so you should be grateful." I ran my fingers down my hairs as I heaved a sigh up and down trying to control myself and any sanity that I might have left."This is ridiculous, this is so ridiculous." I walked up to the window and took in my surroundings.It depicted dark and cold just like how their Alpha was and that was the same situation with the inside.Infact, I apologize for saying that the inside of this mansion is way more eerie and dark than the outside.It gets worse as you go deeper."It is?" The lady asked and I couldn't fathom
KATHERINE. "That is not possible! My parents aren't murderers." I stood up abruptly dropping the steaming hot tea on his table glaring at Beta Edward as he seemed to snap at a sensitive spot inside of my head. "Calm down, Katherine. It's a lot to take in." He coaxed as he walked over to my side. "Don't tell me to calm down! You just told me that my parents might be murderers so forgive me if I can't act like everything is fine and nothing is wrong with that." I screeched, I'm sure that I was going to have a panic attack or better still pass out if someone doesn't hold me down. "I just want you to know that you getting hysterical wouldn't raise your parents or his parents from the dead." Edward hushed and that was a fair point that brought me to sealing my lips. "When you put it like that, it makes sense. But that also applies to the Alpha, punishing me for it doesn't bring either of them back." I clicked my lips as I took another long sip of the herbal tea. Whatever is in thi
KATHERINE “You should eat so as not to get the Alpha pissed.” Eve strode towards me, stopping briefly to shake her head as she effortlessly dropped a glass of coffee on the desk before me.I wondered for the first time if I made the right choice. He asked me to suck it up since making a pup was my only reason for being here. I didn’t exactly have a choice either. “If I need to eat anything, I’ll get it myself.” I chided with a forced smile and she wagged a brow, as if wanting to burst into a fit of unbearable laughter. “You want me to get killed?” As she asked I just kept a straight face. I didn’t care whatever he’s to do to her. I just want to have some time to myself and get my head straight. Which includes not eating either. That being the least of my problems. “I think you should take your leave. You will only die if you choose to confess to him. My mouth is sealed.” I cleared my throat and started, a little too eager for the space I was yearning. For a second, her face depi
KATHERINE I ran. I don’t know how I did it but I only breathed until I was under the sanctity of my room. I backed the door as I dropped effortlessly to the floor, my heart still beating loudly against my chest in remembrance of the mess created back there. My eyes stayed wide open, my ears perked up at the same time as I listened for any suspicious sound or footsteps whatsoever. I almost had a panic attack right there in his room and if I hadn’t escaped just in time, I could have collapsed. The way his feet sank into the glasses taking the injury in my stead was a nemesis on its own. It was so scary I couldn’t process the right thing to say, I just had to run but I am feeling bad about it right now. After all, he got hurt because of me. A knock on the door flew my heart out of my chest and likewise has me flinching up to my feet. “Who’s that?” I asked and faced the door with my trembling body. Are his men here to drag me to the farthest dungeon? Did he order to have my head? O
KATHERINE “I’m sorry for my grave mistake.” Was what I started my next morning with. Immediately I woke up, I chanted at Derek’s doorstep for no less than five minutes before I was then free to retire to my room. “Sorry but you are not allowed to come in.” I was barely halfway into the kitchen when I got stopped by the group of pack house’s chefs. Do they not understand how boring it is staying in my room all day long alone? “I’m not about to touch anything. Well, just here for one or two chores.” I coaxed as I walked past them. “We have enough people to sort out every chore. In fact, we are almost done and the meal will be served soon. Ms, I’ll suggest you leave before the Hybrid Alpha manages to see you.” The particular lady who had tried to stop me ran forward and fell into steps with me. She looks composed but her face is telling otherwise. Not only hers, the rest included. “He’s not going to come. Seriously? See your faces becoming so pale with fear.” I looked at
KATHERINE“W-hat?!” The way I screamed was terrifying to my own ears. I slightly peeked a tiny glance into the room and my jaw was agape. There's no way I could convince myself it's just his shadow when his figure is looking so huge and clear. Hybrid King Derek. Damn it, I've gotten so used to qualifying him as an Alpha. His fucking first time in my room and I feel so hot from the inside as I mustered the courage and brisk walk in.“W-hat are you doing here?” I asked and faced him with my stammering tone on the lose. Right, looking as my eyes was fixated down my feet I could not bare to face him.He walked over to my side and stopped abruptly only when he had walked past me. I tried not to look back. These chefs implanting fear inside me is a great mistake, now I look no different from a toddler before her father after commiting a huge atrocity.“Henceforth…” he began and I stared ahead feigning unaffected. “For a faster result, every three days, I shall expect you on my bed at ni
KATHERINEI looked like a stripper.One stare at my reflection in the mirror and I wanted to cover my eyes in shame. I’ve never seen a lingerie or wore one. And that’s because there was never a need for it. But now, there is. Unlike the people who wear it for their lovers as a surprise when the night time for pleasure comes by, I’m wearing this for a total stranger.Right, I still don’t know him and I doubt I ever will. “None of this is happening.” I gulped taking myself in once again. I feel so exposed and cold. Concluded that I needed to get out of this thing clinging onto me like a second skin pretty fast, I fetched a jacket from the closet to cover myself as I walked my way out of my room. My hands tightened against my chest as I walked, eyes diverting every seconds to watch out for any passerby.When I walked into King Derek’s room, he was there this time. Hands crossed behind him staring out of the window. I momentarily paused. Then I proceeded onto the bed without been told
{THE END OF THE BEGINNING}THREE MONTHS LATER~“I’ve successfully put him to sleep and you know what? I’m exhausted.” Two months ago, the pack welcomed an heir, and not just a mere heir, a handsome one. Two months ago was the happiest day in Hybrid Derek’s life and that’s because he finally gets to see his son after mine arduous waits. On the other hand, Katherine, the pack’s Luna, was happy with their child’s birth into the world but all her life, she’s never been so stressed. Especially since the pup is clingy. But like Lyra had told her, it’s normal for babies to be clingy with their parents. Then there’s the sleepless nights, which is the hardest. Although Derek has been busy himself with the pack affairs, he was always there to help her whenever he could. However despite the troubles that comes with having a baby, every time she looked into her son’s eyes, she knew that she wouldn’t trade this life for anything.“I’ll go and prepare your lunch then.” Lyra offered but Kather
Third Person’s Pov“No, I made the right decision by letting her go.” Katherine and Beta Edward walked back inside, “I’m sure she dare not show her face again, anywhere near this pack.” She added. If it was up to Edward, he wanted to dig Eva a grave but the Luna decided forgiving her was better and he had to let her go. “This should be between me and you please.” As the gate locked behind them, Katherine reminded him. “The Hybrid shouldn’t know. If he does, he’s going to find her and hunt her down without telling no one.” She doesn’t want the Hybrid to get blood on his hands again. “Alright ma’am, I won’t.” Edward reluctantly agreed and she bided hun goodnight before departing to her room. As she passed the hallway, she couldn’t find Derek and was even more surprised that even until she got to her door, she was no where to be seen. Didn’t he just say he was going to wait for her? Or could he have gone to his room to sleep? “If I don’t see him, I won’t be able to catch a sleep.”
Third Person’s Pov‘Night Walk.’ Two words so forbidden that Derek doesn’t ever want to ear, most especially from his mate but it did came out of her mouth and he has never been that conflicted. He’s concluded within himself to always grant her anything, anything as long as it’s in his capacity and even though this one also was, he wants to make sure of her security first. She would soon deliver and a late night walk should be any of her cravings at her in a time like this. “No, you can’t go, I’m sorry.” He sighed and had to turn his back away. Katherine sighed too. It’s as if she knew already that he wasn’t going to agree. Her mate is only going to agree to such dangerous adventure of hers if only she casts him in a spell and that’s over her dead body. “There’s a really big heat, I don’t know whether you’re feeling it or not but I couldn’t even stay in my room, for real. It felt suffocating and since there will basically be a better atmosphere outside, I just want to be out t
KATHERINE My delivery date was fast approaching and today, it’s been scheduled I’d be going for the last few necessary purchase needed for the incoming baby. Even though it’s Lyra that I’m going with, they didn’t hinder my excitement. When I woke up this morning, I took a clean bath and prepared for myself for the shopping ahead. That too, making sure I’ve eaten. The Hybrid king doesn’t want to hear that I mistakenly skipped a meal. He’s going to lecture me throughout the day and by the time he would finish, I would be in regret for not forcing myself to eat. The door to my room opened and Lyra peeked in. “Are you done?”“Yes, let’s go.” I replied, snatching my purse from the stand. “No, you’re not going with me. The Hybrid King said he’ll be the one to take you.” She said when I reached her at the doorway. “Really? Are you sure?” I asked. She nodded and I sure wasn’t expecting that. I followed her outside and met the car already waiting. I got into the back seat and bowed my
KATHERINE A WEEK LATER~THE CROWNING~Last night, Derek marked me and that made me extremely happy.I wasn’t expecting he was going to do that anytime soon. Especially at his clan, not his pack. When I couldn’t keep it in anymore, I asked him why the next morning just as we were about leaving. He said and I quote: “When I told you any of their decisions on you won’t change my perspective of you, I wasn’t lying and just so you can rely on me, I had to mark you that same night to reassure you that I’m all yours now, just as you are mine, forever.” I didn’t let him see it but I had gushed. Even as I stand before the vanity mirror, I found myself blushing, forgetting I wasn’t the only one in the room. Suspicious Lyra met my eyes in the mirror and I quickly composed myself, my expression turning serious within a twinkle. “I really don’t need that much makeup, okay? If you feel we are going to arrive at the hall late, just dress me up and let’s go now.” I told her, rubbing my hands to
KATHERINE{SEX NIGHT 2 }“Shit!” Derek rasped a curse. “All this wetness for me?” “Yes.” I responded affirmatively and I’m not sure whether or not he heard but he must have gotten the message when I nodded my head, because he didn’t stop. His fingers moved up and down my wetness and he coated it around his finger. Isn’t it weird how I can basically feel the butterflies swimming in the pit of my bulged stomach? “If I continue like this, if my fingers keep working around your wetness, you do know I’m going to lose control right? I'm going to. Are you ready to watch the room tremble to a point of almost falling down?” He asked me. I knew he was just trying to warn me but if only he knew that only fueled my desperation. If I wanted him to stop halfway, I wouldn’t have let him began in the first place. His thumb started circling my clit, almost bringing me to my knees.“Yea! Yes, Derek. I’m ready for you.” My back arched.Stupid of me, I forgot I hadn’t answered him. “I need a full
KATHERINE { SEX NIGHT}Derek growled, and before I could process how deep it sounded deep inside of me, his lips were on mine as he settled onto me. He kissed me, he was kissing me- as if he’d been hungry for it since forever. He was kissing me so deliriously like a bear would and when his body came against mine, I felt him desperately seeking for me to give myself to me and it was as if he knew I would do anything for him. I parted my lips and allowed him ravage each part of my mouth while his palms simply yet powerfully roamed down my sides, not stopping until he’s reached just below my waist. My hands instinctively went to his chest and I didn’t expect it to be so warm and solid at the same time. But it was, and just for me. My heart almost flew out of my chest as it drummed in my ribcage and I hummed in shock when behind my fingertips, Derek’s heart also beater the same. And that, as if he knew, that glued him to press more into me with his hips and I could have ran mad when
KATHERINE “Do you know how intimidating those people can be?” As Lyra prepared my bath water, she asked me. “Do you?” I threw at her the same question in curiosity. It’s been on my mind ever since and this morning, I decided that it’s time I stop ignoring it. I’m scared of what I was going to meet there. Although Derek hasn’t spoken about it again but I know that before his three brothers would came again to come and torment every strings connected to my life, Derek would have taken us there. I had to tell someone about it and I chose Lyra. I couldn’t let the curiosity keeping eating at me. “No, but Hybrids are known to be more powerful than the Alphas and normally, the Hybrids clans have to be really strict about who they are taking in to their midst. So basically, you should expect them to be intimidating. If they get to like you, you would then be free from their gawking eyes.” She stated, stepping back for me once the tub was filled with enough water. And it all made sense.
KATHERINE Lyra came back in with the letter sent by Bryson, and I reached out for it. Lyra left and I started unwrapping the envelope. Bryson had told me he was going to be writing to me but I was the first person who wrote to him. I realized I couldn’t keep him in the dark even if he was gone now so I told him about yesterday’s event with Derek and how he accepted me as his mate heartily. After I’ve unwrapped the packaging around it, I stared at it for a while, deciding whether to open it now or not. Right before I could actually get down to it, I heard Derek call out for me. Just the voice I’ve been longing to hear since I woke up. With a smile on my face, I pushed back the chair I was seated and walked out of my room. It was strange how I immediately felt like something was amiss but I didn’t stop descending the stairs. I quickened my pace only to freeze when I saw something or rather someone that shouldn’t be here. “You think lying to me that you have a mate now is going to
