LENA. The first day of school wasn't easy. I struggled to have my bath. I watched the wall clock tick, watching as the arrow moved by seconds and minutes without blinking my eyes. Fear resonated within me. I hadn't seen my breasts. I had avoided them for the longest but today I had to go to school. The school was my outlet. I gently stepped off my bed, stopping myself from tearing up. I had cried over and over again, nothing made me feel better. Not the tears. All it did was make my eyes blurry and heavy. Eventually, I had to bathe except I wanted to be bullied for smelling and having not bathed for two days. I swallowed as I stepped into my bathroom. I had washed it the other day yet I did not bath. Trust me, it was dusty and disgusting but I did not feel the need to bathe after. That was how scared I was to strip and have my bath. Fear of seeing my body unhinged. Not unhinged, I should never refer to my body like that but that was what it was. One of my breasts was gone, a
LENA. Home was not a fun place for me. I wished that I didn't have to come home but there was no where else to go. Have you ever felt like you didn't belong in the world? As if you weren't supposed to be human? Perhaps you were supposed to be a temporary thing in the world and then a mistake happened. Wolves were permanent but we were lived longer than other creatures on earth. Well, except trees. I would rather become a tree though, not existing but now that I think about it. Trees have more horrible life than most humans did. They got cut off by us for the sake of our benefits yet we care the least about them. This world was cruel and I wished that it was less this way. Walking home felt like hell but I had to go home because my father was waiting for me. Although he acted all cold and mighty, he still needed me. And knowing that he needed me, I couldn't leave him despite all that he did to me. I braced myself for another hatred that would drip from him to me. After dropping
ALEXANDER. “What part of get out of my room do you not understand? I hate you and don't want to see you ever again!” Damn, she pierced my heart with those words. Her eyes were sincere and that hurt more. She really wanted me gone and didn't want to see me. She was harsh, brutal, and inconsiderate. She forced me to crawl back out her window. All I wanted was to see her and talk to her yet she pushed me away. My heart felt like it was soaked in cement, it was so heavy. ‘She is probably just upset that we didn't check on her.’ Tyrant came forward as I jumped down the roof landing on my feet without any sprain. After I was decreed as Beta, I had gotten new strengths. “She doesn't know how hard it was for me all those days she was in the hospital. I couldn't do anything for myself. I could not eat or drink. I ignored Tina by burying my phone for a few days wandering about. All of these were because of her and nothing more. I want to tell her these things and also ask for her forgivene
LENA. I flung my eyes open the next morning, feeling unshed tears in my eyes and the tears rolled down the side of my face. I wiped with the back of my hand before stepping out of my bed, looking toward the alarm and wondering if it had rang. It hadn’t. Something smelled good this morning but I didn't know what it was. Perhaps someone was cooking good food as the smell was delicious and edible. I had just woken up so I couldn't quite figure it out. First, I had to clean the whole house, a habit Tina developed in me. Hence even though she was gone and married to another man, I still did it. Next was to attend to my dad, and throw the rubbish in his potty away. Then, Cook and feed him and also give him his drugs. It was pretty easy because I had mapped it out in my head. By the time I was done, it was a few minutes past seven, and the day had just broken. Thus, I went back to my room to prepare for school. I had just walked in, my door facing my window when I noticed a fur animal o
ALEXANDER. I messed up. I messed everything up! She didn't want to speak to me. It was quite obvious she hated me now. How did she get cancer? When did she get one of her breasts cut off?Does she think I came back because of pity? No, I had always wanted her. I just didn't believe in the mate bond until she took a bullet for me. I wanted her now. ‘Tina is in the way, you married Tina already.’ Tyrant came forward, his voice low and sad. Perhaps I made the wrong decisions based on what happened to my mother. I was so wrapped up in revenge that I didn't care about her feelings. Lena didn't come back to the room, so I left knowing she needed space. In school, my class started and I waited for her to come into the class but she didn't. She knew she was having my class this early yet she did not come. I knew she was avoiding me but her studies needed her. I sighed while compiling the notes of the class for her.I planned to give it to her, and I also made it easy for her to read and
LENA’S P.O.V. I wouldn’t lie, I loved every part of playing water with Alexander. For some moment there, I forgot about the things that were bothering me and just lived freely. Alexander also laughed, I had never seen him like that before. A student who saw him too announced it with a shocked expression. “You can change in my office.” He came over to me, looking at my wet clothes and that was when I realized. “Did you do this to make me change my clothes?” Anger erupted in me. I should have known that Alexander was a brainiac. He had come up with this water game to get me wet and offered his office as a place where I could change. “What? No!” He leaned back, denying it. ‘Lena, trust him this time!’ Elena said giving me no choice but to go with him. We stopped at the girl’s locker room to grab my sports fit before heading back to his office. Alexander shut the door behind him as I stepped in, looking around his office before turning to him. “Why are you still here?” I asked a li
ALEXANDER. She didn't go to talk to me. Lena said we were over. She hated me now. Everything was my fault. Every single thing was my fault. I should have listened to her. I was so obsessed with revenge that I forgot about her feelings. I punched the wall behind me after she walked out of my office. My hands were shaking. My mind was in different places and my head was piling up different scenarios. Shit! I fucked up. What could I do?How could I make this better? I was panicking. I couldn't believe that I was panicking. I walked over to the work table and grabbed my phone before settling into the seat. How painful was it? What drugs was she on? How could I make her feel better? I searched all of this on my phone but no results came through. To think that I was the cause of it, goodness, I ran my hand in my hair. It hurt so much. Too much. I wouldn't lie, I felt guilty. I wished that I had listened to her. Stopped the wedding and slept with her in my house. This would have be
LENA’S P.O.V. I didn't feed my father. I had forgotten to leave him lunch for the day. This was because I was shaken by the incident with Alexander in the morning. I forgot to leave him lunch and also bring back his potty pan. Getting to his room, I was shocked to see that he had pooped on the floor. He did not seem to care about what he had done. The room stank but I couldn't show it. “Dad,” I said. I did not expect him to do this. He could have just waited for me to arrive. He stared into space, his eyes filled with no emotions. I sighed, tears growing in my eyes but I walked over to clean him up. When I got closer, he grabbed my neck and I gasped as his fingers thinned into my skin. “Dad…” I called lifting my head to see his emotionless face. He glared at me and said, “Bastard!” He spat at my face and dragged his fingers down my skin until I was able to move away. “You are a bastard!” He yelled at me, looking into mine. His orbs were filled with disdain. His fingers trembled
