Lina POV.
I am sleeping, laying on my stomach, but even in my sleep I hear my door go up, I lay still, and I say nothing, I know if I do it will be worse. I can feel the extra weight in my bed, and then I feel his hands. One is coming between my legs, the other one comes around and grabs my throat. I feel his breath in my ear as he whispers.
“Good girl, now remember, not one word or I will make it hurt.” And with these words he enters me, pushes himself inside me, and it hurts like hell.
My name is Lina I am seventeen and an orphan, when I was three years old, I was found somewhere near a forest and delivered to the social services. No one ever came looking for me, so they thought either my parents were dead, or they just left me. I am currently living in a foster home with 3 other kids all boys where one of them is the foster parents’ biological son. He is the one that comes into my room at night and has his way with me and making my life a living hell.
Oh, and I live in a town controlled by the werewolf pack “Moonstone pack” yep you heard right. Werewolves exist. But they live in peace along with us humans, and always keep to themselves, apart from the jobs and businesses they have in town.
I wake up, feeling dirty and disgusted with myself. I hate living here. I am nothing but a source to get money. I get out of my bed, grab my clothes and my towel, and hurry to the bathroom. I take a shower and tears run down my cheeks, I don’t even remember him leaving my room, I passed out before he was finished. I get dressed in dark blue jeans and a simple top and a big black hoodie, brush my long brown hair, and add some mascara. I open the door and get out only to see Ken stand there. He smirks at me gets close and whisper to me
“Remember. Not. One. The word” with that he leaves and walks downstairs to the kitchen. I go downstairs, look inside the kitchen, and speak.
“I am off to school” turn around and leave the house.
It’s a warm day, and I know I will feel like dying from the heat today wearing my hoodie, but I keep it on. I don’t like when Guys look at my body. I love being outside I am feeling free and somehow safe. I am getting to school. Walking through the doors and go towards my locker. The talk is summing all over the place, about three new students attending the school’s queen B Vickie who also is one of the werewolves is standing talking loudly with her small minions. I can hear them whisper about the new students.
“The future Alpha is the hottest guy I have ever seen; Vickie you are so lucky your family is close to the alphas family.” One of her minions say. Vickie is just smiling and speak
“Yes, Alpha said I will be the perfect future Luna, and Alex is so hot, I can’t be any happier.” All the girls giggle and I roll my eyes, without they can see it.
Vickie thinks that just because she is a werewolf, she is better than all of us, especially when it comes to us humans. I grab my stuff and go to my first class which is English literature. Something is changed though I just cannot pinpoint what it is. Maye to smell. Usually, the hall is filled with the smell of students. But right now, all I can smell is the then amazing and alluring scent of fresh air from the forest and mint. I shake my head I must be going crazy.
POV. Alex I am standing in the hall of the school together with Logan and Mike, we have been gone for the past 3 years, training to get ready to take over our rightful places in the pack when the time comes. “So, you didn’t find your mate in the pack when we got home,” Mike asks. I look at him and shake my head, “No, I took a walk around the pack, and nothing caught my senses.” Logan and Mike both smile Sadly. They both know I have been searching and hoping to find my mate since I shifted. A wolf’s mate is the most precious thing we can find, it’s the half we need to be 100% complete. As an alpha, I shifted when I was fifteen, where any wolfs with a lower rank, first shift when they turn eighteen. Logan and Mike both found their mates, and even it stings, I am happy for them. “I heard a rumor that you are going to choose the old gammas daughter Vicky as your chosen mate and make her your Luna” I laugh at them. “Oh yes, that is what the rumor sa
Lina POV. I am sitting in class waiting for it to start, when I suddenly smell that new scent, I noticed this morning. Forest and chocolate, I want to look around to find out where it comes from, but I keep my head down so people will just leave me alone. Then the smell comes closer, and I notice two guys sitting down on the empty tables in front of me and the one next to me. The smell is so strong now and for some reason, it calms my body. “Hello, I am Alex,” the voice next to me says and it almost feels like his voice is caressing me softly. I keep my head down even it is so hard, and answer. “Hello” I don’t want to be rude. “The bonehead in front of you is Logan” I hear the guy in front of me chuckle a little and I feel a small smile on my lips. “what’s your name” the guy Alex asks. Still not wanting to be rude I say. “Lina.” then the professor enters and starts talking about a project that must be made in groups. I shrug for myself
Alex POV. I cannot wait to get to school today. I want to see my beautiful mate. But she is nowhere to be seen. I wonder if she is okay. “No, she isn’t okay,” Hunter says in my head “Do not say something like that Hunter,” I growl at him. “You felt that pain yesterday, Alex, I know you did. Because I did. Our mate was in pain and a lot of it.” That makes me furious. And I keep looking around for her. As I head to class. It’s already 2nd period and still no sign of her. But I know she must be in the next class. And there I see her when I enter. I feel relieved and go to sit at the table next to her. “Hey Lina,” I say, feeling calm now I can see her and smell her. But then she lifts her head and looks at me and I let out a threatening growl. She looks down again and whimpers. As Logan enters the classroom. I get down on my knees next to her. “Lina, Sweetie, I am sorry, I did not mean t
Alex POV. I run over to Lina. My beautiful mate oh Goddess no let her be okay. “Lina, baby girl, please wake up beautiful.” She doesn’t answer. But I feel her breath normally. I pull off my hoodie and put it on her. While I am mind linking Logan, Mike, and their mates. “Guys I need help; a group of guys was assaulting Lina she is badly hurt. Her clothes ripped and she passed out.” I hear growls and feel their sympathy through the link. When Emma says. “Alex brings her to the school nurse. She is a wolf from our pack.” I silently thank the Goddess for that Emma has a dream of becoming a doctor. So, she checked these things. “Emma you are a savior, thank you.” I lift Lina in bridal style and hurry towards the school nurse. “We will be right there Alpha; Emma will bring some clean clothes for her,” Logan says and the link closes. I reach the nurse’s office and she g
Lina POV. “You are going home with me. I will get you your own room. But I will also know that you are safe.” I hear the words coming from his mouth, though I am not sure I heard right, and then it hits me what he said. Take me home with him. I cannot do that. I am not 18 yet, if he does, he will get in trouble. “But you can’t, I mean, I am not eighteen I am not of age yet, my foster parents decide how my life is going to be until I am.” I whisper in a low tone and look down, not knowing if he heard me. It’s not that I want to stay at my foster home, because I really don’t. I just don’t want him to get in trouble. He has been nothing but sweet to me. Mate or not, he has only shown concern for me when I was obviously hurting, and he saved me. I would hate myself for causing problems for him. My mind is going on overdrive, and I don’t notice that Alex has come closer before he with 2 fingers under my chin lift my head, so I look into his beautifu
Lina POV. I hurried up to my room, found my 2 big travel bags, and started to fill them with my clothes and the few books and stuff I had that was mine. I was getting out of this house, away from Ken and my foster parents. I did not have a lot, as a foster kid, we learn to not have more belongings than we can carry. Walking down the stairs it is deadly silent down there. For a moment I got worried, maybe Alex had changed his mind, and left without me. When I entered the kitchen, I let out a breath, I didn’t even know I was holding in. Alex was still here; he didn’t leave me. He heard me stand up and came to me, caressing my cheek. “You okay Beautiful?” I nodded my head, feeling all relieved. He looks me in the eyes, and I can see he know why. “I would never leave you.” He whispers I’m in my ear. And I relax. “Okay, let’s go Beautiful, time to go home.” He says giving my foster parents a nod. I look at them before saying “Bye.” T
Lina POV. Alex leaves the room closing the door, leaving me to look at my new room. It’s hard to believe, that it looks like my life, is finally turning into something good the bedroom walls are painted in soft cream with dark curtains, a huge king-size bed in dark wood is standing in the middle of the room, against the long wall. There is a small desk, TV, and a little cozy spot with a soft couch setup. I open the first door Alex pointed to and see a big walk-in closet. I stand looking in shock, thinking I never will get to use such a big closet. I close the door again and go open the door there must be a bathroom. I can’t help but gasp, this is the most amazing bathroom I have ever seen. It has a big shower filling the whole wall in on side om the room. At the other end is the biggest bathtub I have ever seen. An in middle the bathroom counter and the room is so peaceful. Mary has stocked it with all kinds of soap, shampoo, conditioner towels, and everything that should be
Lina POV. We are sitting in McDonald’s, Alex got me a burger with fries and a soda. We are all just sitting talking, the guys about someone they call routes, Alex told me it is wolves that are not living with a pack. That most of them are dangerous and crazy beasts. Emma and Emily want us to go shopping soon. But I tell them I don’t have any money. I was never allowed to have any, but sure I can go with them if they want me to. I like the sisters, they are sweet, and they don’t care about me being an orphan. Emma and Emily got here before the boys like a month before, and had noticed me in school, but seen how everyone always was nasty to me. They tried getting people to just leave me alone. Said I was not hurting anyone. And I guess the wolves mostly listened. I am grateful they tried. “You have not been at the mall, have you?” Emily asks. “Not really no, “That sucks, we would really love it if you came with us.”
