Chapter Thirteen I woke up to the sunshine steaming through the window. I let out a yawn and stretched my tired body out. My arms still ached from all the work from yesterday. I jumped out of the bed and quickly washed then got dressed. I could not afford upset the alpha anymore. I knew full well that if I wasn't up and making breakfast for the pack, then I would be beaten again. I prepared pancakes and helped the other omegas to set up the dining hall. It was almost seven am before we had finally got everything completed. I let out a sigh of relief and felt so pleased with my effort. At least I would be out of trouble for now. I made my way back to the kitchen when I felt someone's presence. Looking up at the door I froze. Then came the smack. Falling to the ground, I shielded myself from his blows. It was pointless to plead and beg for him to stop as that would make him angrier and I would be even more punished. He hated me and wanted me dead. I knew it. Death was very much
George Pov I have no idea what my father is trying to do but seeing him almost kill that girl struck a nerve. It's not like she is my mate or anything but I do feel a strange sense of pull to her. Maya would be crazy if she knew that, she would get it all wrong and think I was interested in Elora when It isn't anything like that. I can't explain it. My father being like like that freaked me out. It was like he had been possessed. I was glad I got there in time. Flora had a faint pulse so I carried up to one of the spare bedrooms where Maya could attend to her. “What the hell happened to her?” Maya shrieked when she saw the bruised and battered Elora in my arms. “I don't know what's got into him, he almost killed her. Maya we have to get her away from him. He's going to send this whole pack down if he kills her.” It scared me to think that my own father could kill a she-wolf. He had walked off like it were no big deal. The walls and floors were splattered with blood. It was like a
I wanted to kill him. How could she be my sister? How could my father cheat on my beautiful mother like she were a worthless hoare? He was lucky I did not kill him there and then. Elora did not deserve to be treated this way all because my father saw her as his dirty little secret. I could not bare to see him hurt my mother or my sister. It felt strange to think I had a sister. Elora. Maya would be crazy when I told her about this. My father did not seem to care one little bit about Elora. He had tried to end her life to keep her quiet over something that was not her fault. It made me question everything my father had ever told me over the years. He wasn’t the man I had looked up to growing up. I was certain I would never be such a selfish alpha when I finally took over the reins. I was determined that my pack would be treated fairly no matter their rank status. My father was so drunk he could barely get up. I ordered some of the warriors to take him inside and put him to bed wh
“Is everything ok, Alpha?” My Beta knocked on my door and poked his head around to check on me. I was sitting up in bed with a splitting headache. I had drunk way to much this time and now my son knew that that stupid slut Elora was his sister. This was a nightmare for me. How could I have opened my mouth in the worst possible way? I was certain that he would not tell his mother of my unfaithfulness to her and the secret daughter that had been hidden away from her all of these years. “I will be, keep an eye on that slutty omega Elora. She is nothing but trouble that one.” I told him to which he looked slightly surprised but did not challenge my request. Being alpha meant what I said went. I was the leader of the pack. He closed the door behind him and my luna came stomping into the room with a look of thunder on her tired face. She still had it, even after these years and has given birth. Her body was to die for. My wolf still went crazy insane when she was near. Even though I
As I stormed out of the room, my anger and frustration were boiling over. How could my son, my own flesh and blood, dare to challenge me like that? And Elora, she was a constant reminder of my infidelity, a mistake I couldn't overlook. The thought of her being in my pack, in my territory, made my blood boil.I needed to clear my head, to let go of all the pent-up rage and disappointment. I sprinted through the woods, my paws pounding against the forest floor. The wind rushed through my fur, cooling the fire burning inside me. My wolf howled in exhilaration, relishing the freedom of the run.But, even in the midst of the adrenaline-fueled sprint, I couldn't escape the consequences of my actions. Images of Elora's tear-stained face flashed before my eyes, and guilt started to creep in. How could I be so heartless to her? She was innocent, a victim of my mistakes. The weight of my responsibilities as an alpha felt heavy on my shoulders.As I slowed down, the anger began to dissipate, repl
Elora's eyes widened, flicking from me to Maya, confusion and disbelief etched on her face. "Your...sister?" she echoed faintly, her voice laced with a mixture of emotions that mirrored the turmoil swirling within me.I nodded, taking a deep breath as I steadied myself for the storm of questions and emotions that was bound to follow. "Yes, Elora. My father...our father," I corrected myself, the words tasting bitter on my tongue, "has made choices that hurt many, including you and our mother. But I want you to know, none of that is your fault. You are as much a part of this pack, this family, as I am."Maya gripped my hand tightly, a silent show of support. She had always been my rock, her strength unwavering even in the midst of chaos. "We're going to look after you, Elora," she said, her voice firm despite the tremble that had lingered moments before. "You're safe here, with us."Elora looked between us, her eyes glimmering with unshed tears as the gravity of the revelation began to
The air hung thick with unspoken truths and unspoken words. Elora's eyes, still redrimmed, darted between George and Maya, flickering between emotions."What do you mean, what happens now?" she asked, her voice barely audible. Her voice wavered as her question trailed off. She looked at George and Maya, a hint of uncertainty, fear, and hope in her eyes.Maya's response was firm and reassuring. "Now, we secure your safety, Elora. You will be safe here. We'll protect you. We're a pack, and we take care of our own. We’ll take care of you. We stay together, always.""I appreciate it, both of you," Elora said. "It's just a lot to take in," she added quietly. "A lifetime of pretending…knowing you existed and being afraid of the implications. Now, finding out that my father is the cause of this all?" She paused and swallowed hard. "Who I thought was the cause?" she asks."He's the one that caused all this. He's the one who made the choices that brought you here. But it's not your fault," Geo
As they stepped into the cool, damp air of the night, the rain had transformed into a light drizzle, misting the surroundings in a haze. The world outside felt lush and alive, yet ominous with an undercurrent of uncertainty. George led the way, Elora and Maya close behind, each step bringing them closer to a sanctuary that felt both like a refuge and a line crossed. "Stay close," George advised, casting a watchful glance over his shoulder. "We don't know who might be watching."Elora nodded, clutching the strap of her backpack tightly. The weight of her belongings felt significant, but it was nothing compared to the emotional burden she carried. With each step, she fought to push back the creeping doubts and fears about what lay ahead.Maya, sensing Elora’s unease, took her hand in a reassuring grip. "You’re going to be okay," she whispered, her voice a soft murmur beneath the steady rhythm of the raindrops. "Remember, you're with us now."Elora squeezed her hand in return, grateful

“Let me out of here,” I screamed at the top of my lungs but nobody came and nobody heard me. I was down here all alone, Alpha Isaac had not been back yet so I didn't know if he was leaving me here to die alone. I wished that I had stayed away, I was safe with my mate. If I could escape then I could at least shift and hunt for food to survive. Unfortunately for me I had not been allowed to shift for a long time and my wolf had gone quiet on me. I was so weak, hungry and thirsty that I somehow managed to fall asleep. The cold bare floor was becoming my home. “El, wake up. Come on.” I thought I was dreaming as someone shook me vigorously. My chains had been taken off and I looked up rk see a kind looking face smiling down at me. Maya. The Beta’s daughter was standing in front of me holding her hand out to me. “Elora, come on. You can't stay down here.” she huffed crossly. “Take her, she is to weak.” Maya ordered to someone behind her and the next thing I was being carried to
