Chapter One

                   

                     

"I love it when you call me señorita, I wish it wasn't so damn hard to leave you but every touch is true lo lo love, I should be running you keep me coming for you".

The stereo blasted in the early hours of the morning.

Then I felt something liquid splashed on my face. I groaned and opened my eyes to see my best friend Kelly holding a glass and singing señorita along with the stereo.

" Rise and shine sleepy head it's almost seven in the morning, get up and shower Dr Alix, unless you don't want to be in the office by seven," Kelly said and dropped the glass on a table beside my bed.

I scowled  "Remind me why I allowed you to follow me from home and went against my brother for you, you scum".

" my lovely Ali, how affectionate you are this morning mademoiselle. The answer to your question is because you love me, Damn my charm is irresistible" She turned around twerking. 

The song changed to the victorious cast song, and she began to sing along.

"You're a bad boy, am a crazy  girl and am gonna get my booty tapped all the time"

"You know am pretty sure that's not the lyrics, "I said standing from the bed and grabbing the remote and turning off the stereo.

"This is the remix baby, this is going to be all over the news in New York soon" she announced.

"Yeah and when that awful song comes out, the park is going to rethink their decision and send for you miss popular".

"you're just jealous of my awesomeness, be down in 30 minutes,  breakfast has already been served, so move your lazy ass" She opened my door and began humming the song again.

Well, that is my best friend, Kelly Pitt, she is like a sister to me. Her craziness woke me up every morning and her presence helped me survive my stay in New York, That's why I went against my brother for her.

My name is Alix Stone, The first and favorite child of Alpha  Kish Stone and whoever my mom was. 

My father refused to ever speak of her but never failed to mention my actions resembling hers. Being all that, one would never expect the favorite child to be banished to New York but let me explain more. His wife Lana and her first son, My stepbrother Stephen Stone hate me, infact if there was a stronger word for describing that feeling, then that is the one, that I have been looking for.

They were always afraid that my father would name me an Alpha since I was the first child, Lana always told me how relieved she was when they found out I didn't have a wolf. This was confusing as hell because every werewolf could identify my scent as one of them. I was more like an ordinary Human living amid wolves and stuck with a wolf's scent.

I was taught how to fight like one and run like one I was given the training of an Alpha but I still never turned, the only thing that betrayed the fact that I wasn't completely human was that I could talk to anyone without using my mouth, I could also read minds sometimes . All I needed to do was to touch the person or their property and concentrate.

 I prayed, hoped, and cried to turn too, like everyone else when I turned Fourteen but it never happened, Everyone turned, and when my youngest brother Zack became of age, his wolf showed up but mine never did. people always snickered when I passed by but was never brave enough to say it to my face because of my father. 

I confronted my father once about my wolf-less state, suggesting to have a witch or a seer look at me. That was the first time, My father lost his temper and also the day he gave me a little info on my mother.

He forbade me from going to see any witch, He said that my mom made him promise never to let one look at me till the time is right. It made no sense to me. When was the right time, I asked him, but he never answered, he then made me swear never to see one. I was frustrated and very angry that I decided to be useful in my own way.  

I took the entrance exams for medical school and later graduated. My father died a year after my graduation, from a silver bullet to the heart by hunters. 

Stephen was made the new Alpha, He had more power to do whatever he wanted now. He tried to get me in trouble, a couple of times but never succeeded. I was also as cunny as he was. He hated the praise I received from pack members whenever I solved a case or when I massacred a half dozen of rogue wolves who tried to kidnap me once. Many pack members especially the men started to respect me, saying that I was lethal even without a wolf

Kelly was the reason he succeeded in sending me out of the pack, She was given to him as a treaty by an Alpha who offended our pack, She was a nobody so she was given to my ruthless brother. He let her roam freely for that week, She was great company, so we bonded well. She told me that the Alpha wanted her to be his mistress but she refused before he set her up.

 Stephen the sadist knew what he was doing, he let the both of us bond and then decided to subject her to be his wh*re a week after. He was putting his dirty hands all over her while she kept screaming, He didn't even have the decency to do it in his room rather he chose to do it in the living room. I wanted to ignore them but I couldn't, I rushed to them and offered to leave only if she came with me.

He didn't want to give up his new toy but at least he didn't want me to stay anyway, so he agreed.  One of our hospitals in New York, Stone Hospitals was short of specialists for supernatural beings. So Kelly and I were sent there. I became one of the directors there while Kelly enrolled in school.

Since I didn't have a wolf, And was mostly human, it may also mean that I may not have a mate which was okay by me. Men like Stephen didn't make me feel like I was losing anything by not having a mate. I honestly feel so sorry for whoever the moon goddess ever pairs with him. He and most of the men in my pack are assholes. They treat their women as their slaves and these females are taught to enjoy this treatment calling it possessiveness.

 But don't get me wrong, I believe in love but I believe in finding a reasonable man who isn't going to be anything like Stephen and isn't going to be so delusional to think that he would be the center of my world and I would be at his beck and call. But, not now, I still have a lot of things to set right. I am not like the other she-wolves who couldn't wait to be mated once they turn Eighteen. One of them told me one time that having children and waiting on your husband was the best thing in the world, I told her immediately that she was being delusional.  Since I don't share most of the wolf's beliefs about their mates, I decided to mask my scent when I go out in case a wolf who has a grudge against my pack decides to attack me or I may out of a thousand chances meet my MATE.
