Amelia's pov:
Standing beside the staircase, I felt two huge figures approaching me. I don't need to be told twice that it is the two brothers, it wasn't long before Allen and Albin came.
After seeing me, Albin began to sneer again because of the odorous smell coming out of my body and the cloth that I was putting on. It smells terrible and very bad.
His eyes narrowed in disgust as he poured the glass of water that he was drinking a minute ago all over me.
"Can't you be such a big stink?" He asked with disgust. I trembled beside him with my hands clenching my cloth still I didn't dare to speak.
"Why do you always smell so bad?" He snarled.
I gulped nervously with my head lowered as everyone passing by kept throwing me a disgusted look, the unsettling gaze wasn't helping as I had my head dropped off and without daring to stare them in their faces.
"Heads up!!" Albin ordered.
Lifting my head a bit I unintentionally caught sight of Allen, the other's brows were slightly wrinkled.
We kept staring at each other before Albin's chuckle snapped me out of my reverie state.
Straightening himself, Allen motioned for Albin to tell me why they were there. I watched as Albin's face darkened and as his face turned blank with his eyes dangerously fixed on me.
My lips were quivering and shivering in fear as I glanced at them.
"Hmmm….." Allen chuckled slightly.
"We are here for the party," he announced, gaining my attention.
"Party," my lips parted away.
"Yes! Party, moron," Albin foul-mouthed, forcing me to swallow nervously. Allen spared his brother a quick gaze before proceeding with what he was saying.
"We are going to have a party at night and we want you to prepare food very well," despite how cool the words roll out there is a hint of seriousness in Allen's voice.
"Have the pack and every other thing tidied up before then," he instructed.
"No place, I mean no place could be left untouched…… if I in any way find out that you didn't clean every corner you will hear from me," Albin threatened.
They made a lot of various requests to me which I accepted with a nod, it is not like my opinion matters anyway.
Who could dare to speak up in front of these two demons, talk more of me that is nothing but a slave in the pack?
"We will be on our way then since the message was well delivered," Allen said but Albin kept glaring at me.
"Can't we just have fun with our little play toy?" He whined with a disgusted look.
"No, Albin……." Using his hand, Allen held him in a place before whispering, "Leave that for another day, dad needs to see us now,"
My leg twitched vigorously as I felt Albin snarl before Allen pulled him out of the place. He hesitates for a while before he accepts to walk away with Allen.
"Huh!" I released the breath that I was holding, with my hands placed on my racy heart to control the erratic beating of my heart.
With trembling lips, I stare at their reflection before they disappear out of the hallway.
I recall what those brothers have done to me since I stepped my foot into this pack, it has been one hell of a thing, especially Albin.
They were always at my neck; they beat, starve, degrade me, and treat me like a piece of trash. They made my stay here a living hell, they contributed much to making sure that I don't derive comfort from any part of my life or body.
Allen can be messy at times but he could be a lenient and easygoing person but so bad you couldn't say the same about her elder brother Albin.
Who is the apparent heir to the throne after the tenor of his father?
They hurt me badly and cause me a lot of pain but I hope that I can survive it and that's why I don't dare to disobey the two, otherwise I could be severely beaten.
My 18th birthday is on the same day as the party, that is the day that I will meet my wolf and at the same time my mate if I am lucky.
According to the rumor and based on what the people are saying, mates are those designed by the moon goddess and paired together as husband and wife.
They said that a mate is like the glue that joins the pieces together, and they said that there is this way that you will feel after meeting your soulmate.
I have always fancied the word mate and have always wished to have one but my tiny hope crumbled on that day that I lost my parents.
On that day that I lost everything, every single thing that I have was ripped out of my hold. I lost my parents, friends, their pack, and my freedom.
So the only thing clouding my mind is how to avenge my parent's death and bring victory to their graves.
I wanted to make everyone that contributed to my parents' death go through pain and grief.
I want to make them have a test of what my parents went through and for their loved ones to experience a little of what happened to me.
The loneliness that I went through, and the pain and humiliation that weighed me down.
The heavy burden ripping my bones apart, the sleepless nights that I had, and the distress that I went through since I was a child.
However, back to my birthday tomorrow, I don't know how to go about that. It was sure going to be a big day for me because I am no longer going to stay alone.
I will have my wolf with me. I don't know if I could meet my mate but I don't care anymore.
Afterward, I had this feeling that even if I met her mate, he would not accept me now because I am just an omega.
The day of the party had finally arrived, and I prepared different varieties of dishes. I made a lot of food just to please the demon brothers. After a busy day, I seem tired, and my whole body hurts. I felt sore all over my body but I couldn't do anything. I was done preparing the food but so bad, I still had a lot of work to do. People have started arriving and I still have to get something in order, I need to keep the table and presider intact to avoid any problems from those demon brothers.Walking quickly to get things done, I almost knocked down a plate of food. Fortunately, Allen helped in time and survived the disaster. Almost to the ground, I felt a hand sneaking across my waist pulling me forward. My face hit a thick body. At first, I thought that it was a rock until I indirectly peeped and noticed that it was a manly body. Lifting my head, our eyes locked together. I was startled to see Allen holding me almost to his body. I was confused as I didn't notice where Allen c
With an aching pain and teary eyes, I ran out of the ceremonial ground into the pack house. Running toward my room, I slammed the door behind me. My heart aches and breaks into tiny pieces, I felt that the moon goddess was too cruel to me, and now, can I only live in the circle of slaves all my life and be oppressed by Albin? Tears slid down my eyes and split into tiny droplets down my cheeks. I felt hurt and unloved and a groan escaped my lips forcing me to my feet. I let out a disheartened cry as the image of my parents flooded my head, with teary eyes I could see their smiling faces at me.The way that I ran around the pack with my parents around our pack clouded my mind, holding my heart. I fell with a sob.My laughing teaching through my mind as I wiped bitterly, the image of my father lifting me in the air slipped into my head. The lingering smile on my mother's face as she watches us hurts me badly.I miss my old life! I miss my parents so much.My life hasn't been the sam
Allen's pov: Before Amelia fainted, I rushed toward her and caught her in time.I engulfed her tight before lying her down slowly to avoid mistakenly touching her wounds. I tried to know if I could wake her up, leaning a bit, I noticed that her heart was chaotic and that caused fear to slip into my scared gaze. I was worried that she couldn't wake up. I could still remember vividly the day that they brought her inside this pack, she was pretty and chubby, but she seemed scared. Our father refused to tell us the truth about where and how they came in contact. He only told us that the pack challenged them and outraged him so he got annoyed and engaged in a fight with them and that's how the girl came into existence.I couldn't buy that lie, I knew my father quite well to be the one that attacked innocent people and the other way about.But my brother Albin bought the lie, I wasn't surprised at his action because he was the same as the old cruel man.And we made it our everyday rout
Amelia's pov: I suddenly felt sober and dizzy. My head is spinning around, I was slightly pushed by those people abusing me Falling to the floor, I lifted my head and noticed that it was the same day as the party. My mind glazed around in thoughts. Wasn't I killed by Albin? Did the moon goddess really give me another chance? I squeezed my clothes and battled with the emotions within me. I sat there paralyzed and was being laughed at by Albin and the guests. He stared at me like I am a plague, and with heads lowered I felt embarrassed and uncomfortable. My eyes teared up as I watched them make gist out of me. I was stinky and dirty and shouldn't have entered the party. I realized that the goddess of the moon really gave me a second chance. This time I looked at Allen's trail first, I noticed him stare back at me from a distance and tried to come over but was stopped by people around him. I knew that he wanted to come and save me from the humiliation and shame. "She
Allen's pov:My jaw clenched tightly at the ignominy of her being tossed around like she was worth nothing.I wanted to go and save her but it seems like the people around me knew my intentions because I was being held back. She seemed hurt and vulnerable. It looks like she was hurting inside with no one to help her.I stared at my brother but I noticed how reluctant he seemed. He was busy flirting with the beauties all around him to care much about his surroundings or what was happening around him.Not like he will even do anything even if he had the idea.The hatred that he had for Amelia was too much for him to see right through it.When she was ordered to serve every single soul represented I knew that it was another way to humiliate her more.I wanted to scream for her not to do it but no word seemed to come out.I wished that she could just turn around and walk away but it's not like she had the power to do that.I watched her swallow nervously and started attending to them on
Allen's Pov: I stomp back and forth in my room, trying to wrap my head around the event of yesterday but with each step that I take, I seem to get more confused. I couldn't predict what that was supposed to mean. No matter what I do, counting to ten or taking a deep breath……. Yet nothing seems to work, I just can't settle. My palms suddenly felt clumsy and sweaty, I rubbed my palms over my clothes and shoved them inside my pants pocket. I have never felt this way before, part of me felt empty. I could feel an aching pain in my heart, but I sighed and ignored it. It has been days now after the party and I haven't seen Amelia nor have I heard from her. Something didn't seem right when I stared at her at the party. I felt a pull and I couldn't explain what it meant or why I was drawn to her. Everything that happened there seemed strange to me. I haven't experienced something like that before and that's what had me confused. I wanted to know what happened at the party, I mea
Amelia's pov: Since yesterday's event, I have been avoiding Albin. I have been stuck in my room in pain that I got mated with him again. I could feel an aching pain in my heart. My heart aches and breaks into tiny pieces, I felt that the moon goddess was too cruel to me, and now, can I only live in the circle of slaves all my life and be oppressed by Albin? Tears slid down my eyes and split into tiny droplets down my cheeks. I felt hurt and unloved and a groan escaped my lips forcing me to my feet. Silent tears rolled down my face wetting my cheeks, I sneezed and looked away, I stared deeply into the thin air as my mind glazed in thought. The erratic beating of my heart clouded my sense of reasoning as I didn't hear the clicking sound of the doorknob of my room pulled. I failed to notice that someone walked in. The forcefulness of the door slamming at the wall caught me off guard and at that moment Albin and Allen rushed inside my room angrily. "Who do we have here?" Wi
I watched as he engulfed me tight before lying me down slowly to avoid mistakenly touching my wounds. I grip hold of his clothes as I stared back at him. We continued staring at each other for a while before he quickly looked away. I tried to speak but winch in pain, I watched him gently stroke my cheeks to calm me down. I smiled sadly at his gesture and tilted my neck sideways while staring into the thin air. Still clenching his clothes, my mind glazed around in thoughts as I stared into the thin air. What will become my fate now that I have discovered that Albin is my mate? I have only one thing that is still keeping me alive and that is the quest of bringing honor to my family. But with the chaos going on now, how am I to survive as Albin's mate? Am I going to continue dwelling in this pain forever? I shut my eyes and let out a sigh. "I think I need to amend your wounds," I was snapped back by Allen's words. I stared at him for some time and looked away and I swear th
