Scared

   My sister suddenly started to laugh and I became more scared and worried going back on the bed.

  Then when she saw I was backing away she suddenly reached for my hand and grabbed it with her fingers.

 "Where are you going? It was just a joke!"

 I slapped her weakly across her shoulder.

"Becky, that wasn't funny at all, you really scared me!"

 I couldn't believe that I had thought my own sister would curse me. That would be completely heartless and Becky wasn't like that.

 But soon she was right about one thing.

I began to understand how her life was, suddenly I was made to do all the chores in the house till the point that I would almost drop.

 My parents never talked about last night with me. It was almost as if they wanted to pretend that night didn't happen.

 However it was not for everyone else it didn't matter where I went to, there was always somebody that was talking about that night, and the moment they saw me they would either shiver away in fear or some would stare at me in disgust.

 Then I would remember that man with blue eyes that was looking at me that night, the only person that didn't look like he was about to throw up.

  And I had a sudden yearning to see him, I couldn't explain it but ever since I saw him my wolf that had not come out yet became totally restless.

  Though I had bigger things to worry about, after I was finally done with my chores for the day I was heading over to my room when I met my mother in the hallway and she was glaring at me.

 "Good afternoon, Mom."

 I greeted her pretending as if she wasn't turning a hole through my head with how she was glaring at me.

 "Get ready, make sure you finish up your chores, we are going to the alphas house in about half an hour…"

 I sighed,"I don't know if I'll be ready in half an hour, I'm doing laundry…"

 "Why are you doing the laundry now? gosh you are always so tactless and stupid!"

 She kept yelling at me and then finally caught her breath and said to me in a businesslike manner.

 "You better be done with the laundry in half an hour or else…"

 Then as she was walking past me and I gathered some courage to beg her to allow me to rest and then when we come back from the our Alpha's house I could finish my chores.

 She looked back at me as if I've lost my mind and I instantly took back my statement saying it was a joke.

 "You better keep your stupid jokes to yourself if you know what is good for you and I better not see a messy job,"

 Her voice was as cold as ice when she said that and then kept walking away.

  I couldn't believe that me and my parents could become this distant.

  Just a week ago I was their beloved princess but now I was nothing more than a slave.

  Reluctantly I had to go and finish up my chores scratching the itchy cap on my head that I used to cover my horrid silver hair, I had to do laundry and so I went to meet my sister in her room to ask for her dirty clothes to wash.

 The look of pity that she gave me was almost enough for me to burst into tears right that minute.

 "Don't worry, in fact I'm going to help you do some of the work so it won't be so hard on you…"

 I was so glad for my sister's help because I was about to pass out, that was until my father came to the laundry room and saw what was happening.

 "Becky, why are you helping this good for nothing to do her chores?" He raged and my sister almost folded looking away from his angry eyes and then he looked at me.

  The amount of disgust flooding his eyes almost drowned me.

 "And you, don't you know that this is supposed to be something that you should do by yourself?"

  "I was tired, father…" admitted honestly that the next thing that I got was a huge slap on my face.

 "Tired?!" He boomed," what right do YOU have to be tired?!"

 Then he turned to my sister.

"This better be the first and last time that I see you helping her with her chores…"

 My sister hesitated but then nodded after a while, and then my father walked over and grabbed me by my wrist as if he was trying to pull it from the rest of my body .

 "I don't have any more time for you to waste here so even if we come back in the evening you are going to finish this chore!"

 I was so fed up, why was I being punished for something that wasn't my fault?

  I didn't ask to be cursed…why didn't anyone understand that?

  Soon we were before the throne room of the Alpha, he was seated there and next to him was his Luna and both of them were looking at me with that familiar look of disgust that everyone gave me now.

 My father and mother had their heads down in shame, and then I was suddenly rushed over by guilt for putting them in this position.

  Just then Jake walked into the throne room.

 I hadn't seen him since the night of the shifting but I knew that he was probably avoiding me on purpose.

 Then finally the Alpha spoke.

 "You should know why I summoned both of you here," he said looking at my parents and they silently nodded.

 "Good, you understand that I cannot have my son betrothed to marry a cursed abomination."

 I couldn't believe my ears…were they really?...really…cutting off the union.

  I found myself running desperately over to Jake and holding him by his arm.

 "Jake, please…"

He shoved me away abruptly and I fell on my butt then he said the words I feared.

 "Clara Greyson, from this day I Jake Dawn reject you as my chosen mate,"
