As I stood right outside the door of the orphanage,doubt filled my mind.
Will they like me? What if it hey despise me because I am human and different from them. I tugged my hair a bit harder than expected . The Luna noticed my struggle and shot me a warm smile.
"They'll love you dear"she spoke and gave me a gentle squeeze.
Her goes nothing. I opened the door and braced myself for crowded and noisy halls but instead everything looked orderly and try he halls were deserted. Where were the kids?
I was ushered to a door. Apparently the kids were in one room waiting for me. The Luna had already left leaving me alone.
I pushed the door open and what I saw made me speechless. It was the kids but something was wrong....with all of them.
The hey looked like zombies. Their eyes hard dark circles and bags and a sickening darkness that made shivers go down my spine.
I didn't even want to know what caused their current state,all I knew was that I needed to get them out.
From the youngest who looked around four to the the eldest who looked around seventeen. All of them seemed emotionless.
A sudden growl made me snap out of my daze. I never noticed to the middle age lady to hat was busy hurling insults to those poor kids.
None of the children replied instead they just looked at the ground
"You think I'm bluffing ,huh, all five year olds meet me at the whipping post in the next three minutes."
Time to make my appearance.
"Good morning children?" I said
To hey all turned their head instantly. Here goes nothing.
"Well, I hope you've been well"
Who was I kidding ,they looked like they had all been hit by trucks.
"Who are you?"the mean lady broke the awkward silence
All the children's eyes were on me
"I am Andrea the new manager of this place, who are you?"
"Greta,the manager "she spat back looking at me with so much distaste
"I am sorry Greta but you've just been fired"I I smiled
She gave me an icy glare and snarled
"Look here young girl, I've been doing this job for over a century, you just can't pop out of nowhere and replace me"she yelled.
That seemed to spark the kids interest
"Greta , Luna's orders can't be changed"
She froze . The Luna really had authority
"Very well, enjoy your new hell, I hope the fire consumes you"
"Have a nice day Greta "I chuckled
She walked away and slammed the door behind her
Drama queen
"That went better than expected"
The kids had looks of disbelief written all over their faces but something was evidently different. Hope. I saw hope in their eyes.
"Now let's start over kids,good morning?'
"Good morning"they chorused
I wanted to teach them how to be kids again. I needed them to feel. I didn't want them to go through what I did. The feeling of never being wanted.
Just because my life went completely off course doesn't mean that they too should experience that,so I'd decided from that moment forth, I'd fix to their shattered hearts and maybe through that It could probably unshatter me.
"Now kids ,as you know , I am Andrea the new manager of this place and of course you as well. I have no idea of what that Grinch , Greta ,did but all I want you to know is that things will be a bit different" That earned a few smiles."Different" one of the kids spoke but then froze.I guessed it might have been an offense when Greta was here. The kid looked like he was going to cry."What's your name little one""Tom" he replied,fear lacing his voice"You know what Tom, come over here" I smiled.He seemed confused and when I took him into my arms and nuzzled my head onto his neck, he gasped but soon melted and finally laid his head on my chest.What happened next was abit humourous. He fell asleep. The children held astonished looks."As I said kids, everything is going to be a bit different. I am going to teach you a lot of things but the most important thing is that I'm going to allow you to be kids again"Whispers broke through the room . I let it happen while little Tom let out s
It's been a month now and so far everything in the orphanage was going quite well .The Luna, Emelda ,would drop by at times in order to check on the progress. The kids had been coping up well ,more staff had been hired and more buildings had been set up.In terms of academics ,the children had really improved according to their various report cards and a kindergarten was opened up recently within the grounds for the smaller kids.The family thing still existed and a lot of the older kids really took care of their selected children . The few that could not were training with the warriors.The bell rang thus meaning that recess was over . I clutched onto my books that I would use and walked into the class.I decided to stick with the younger children because they always made my day."Good morning everyone?" I smiled"Good morning Miss Andrea" they said in a sing-song mannerThey were too cute." So we're going to go through what we did yesterday ok ""Ok ""Let's begin . What is one
Angry and enraged was all I could feel after I saw her. The moon goddess is truly cruel and pure evil .I didn't want a mate, especially not a human one.The thought of her just made me want to punch a wall .Andrea. Her name is Andrea . My wolf found it amazing that we had another chance at love but I on the other hand had a different opinion.She was slow, clumsy and fragile. She was too fragile and she talked a lot.Everyday she would somehow find a new way to just make me angry.She makes me angry and I .... I like it.I thought of sending her way. I thought sending her away would make these feelings go away but it's just made them grow stronger .I passed by her former room everyday and just took in her scent that was already fading.I see her in every corner of the house. I see her in the kitchen doing something stupid as usual.But I also see her making coffee every morning in the kitchen. I see her brushing her unruly hair and cursing at it . I see her talking to herself abo
First of all I want to thank you all for the reads. Honestly,I didn't think that anyone would be interested in this book,but y'all proved me wrong again. I love you all so much😭I was lying on something very cold. I pried my eyes opened and noticed that the armchair was empty . Great, just great, I fell off the chair again. I picked myself up and quickly freshened up .After I was done, I quickly fixed the office before rushing to send of the teens to school.By nine o'clock,I was done and quickly went to my first class."Good morning my little munchkins""Morning"After ensuring that all of them had had a goodnight rest and we're feeling okay,I proceeded with the lesson"Soo today we are going to talk about something very interesting"Their eyes sparked up and I instantly knew that I had their attention."What are we going to talk about, Andrea?"one of the kids asked looking a bit puzzled"Mates "I smiled.Suddenly,the kids facial expressions changed. They looked horrified and though
"That's enough kids"I spoke trying to ease the tension that was building."Prove it Miss Andrea""Fine"I quickly pecked the Alpha's cheek and crossed my arms.I may or may not have to wash my mouth after this. It may sound like I'm overreacting and all but I for one feel a bit disgusted,I mean, what if he rolled on a pile of shit or piss when he was in his wolf formOr what if some other she wolf peed on him and marked him as hers to ward off other females.YuckOr or what if some other female kisses him at the exact spot. No no no. Positive thoughts Andrea. Positive thoughts.Don't overthink things."Ewwwwwww""Girls have cooties and if he were to be my mate ,I wouldn't want him to get it"I said feeling rather proud of myself for saving the situation. The kids looked at me for what seemed like ages before shrugging their shoulders.Good,they bought that lie. The lesson went on well and finally the bell rang. I don't know why but I felt so relieved. Maybe it's because the alpha's e
One month later Xerxes POV The door slammed open and I wasn't surprised when Jaxon walked in all care free.I couldn't care less though. All I could think of at the moment was Andrea. After seeing her in the orphanage a month ago,she was all that invaded my mind. I'd sneak into her office every night and just hold her. This was all possible thanks to her ability of passing out like a log. I mean,I could shift and roar as loud as I could but she would still be asleep. How do I know this? Well that's easy because I literally tried that a night ago I am one of the most feared Alphas in the region but she's made me lower my pride in order to see her. Fuck I sound like a teenage pup. "Earth to Xerxes" "It's Alpha Xerxes to you" ,"I am the happiest man alive" Jaxon said while dropping onto the leather couch. "Let me guess,your Grinch of an aunt died" "Always pessimistic" "I do try" "Well no,but something good finally happened to me" "What?" "She finally said yes" "Who?" "It's

Jaxon,Jaxon Jaxon.What was I going to do with him. I mean ,when he asked me to be his, I took it as a joke because oh well,he is very humourous but now, he is being extremely possessive over me.I mean sheesh,can't a girl have some time to herself. He calls me after every two hours,he wants to know who I'm with at all times,he wants to know what I'm doing and yes it may sound sweet and all but it actually isn't because he never listens to me.He wants everything to go his way and if I oppose,he gets really mad and leaves.Standing at the entrance,I could see the outline of buses headed for the gate. Here goes nothing.The teens noisily walked towards me. They must have had a good day. After a few 'hellos' I got tired . I blame it on my lack of proper sleep.When I thought that it couldn't get any worse,Jaxon appeared.I mentally sighed.Go away. Go awayHe was headed straight towards me and apparently he brought company. The Alpha. Great just great."Hey beautiful"You can do this An

Funny you're the broken one but I'm the only one who needed savingSecond chance mate huhMy resolve began to break and the little energy that I had been saving was beginning to waverSo the universe actually gave me a second chance mate. A very shady and shitty one if I may add .I don't know why but I was surprisingly not surprised. As silly as that sounds. After all that I have been through this far, I don't think that anything can surprise me anymoreBecause,I mean, ... I don't even know what I meanI'm just tiredOf holding onHow many times have I tried to hold? How many times have I tried to look at the positive side of every damn difficult situation that the universe continuously keeps on throwing at me?I managed to turn over though with difficulty and laid on my backMaybe this way I'd choke on my own blood or something and end it allZerabi and her rogues didn't take my actions lightlyInstead their growls began to intensify but you know what ,fuck them and their stupid ug
Suddenly, the rogues crouched down and I could hear bones breakIt was going to freaking shiftHow peachy?I shut my eyes because I wasn't ready to see the human version of that rogue"And so we meet"It was a woman's voiceI gathered strength and raised my head.She was now standing behind two roguesHer eyes were aurburn brown and she had a scar running from her left eye to the base of her neckI shivered to the thought of how she got it.He hair was dirty blonde and judging from the way I could see the details on her face despite those rogues seeming to tower myself, I could tell that she was either 5'8 or 5'9I tried to rack my brains in regards to her identity but I couldn't quite seem to recall if I had ever met her The first thought that came to my head was 'Who was this bitch that just tried to scare the shit out of me?'But then the logical part of my brain that still wanted to live stopped me from voicing that thought"So you're the girl that has been causing all this chaos
AmayaI need to find Amaya.I could feel my chest burn and it was getting harder to breath.The once brightly and lively environment became gloomy. A sinister feeling was hanging around in the air.I didn't care about the cuts I was getting from the low hanging branches neither did I care about the thorns that I stepped on as I ranMy only focus was getting to Amaya before those rogues didSirens were blaring from a distance and I could hear howls nearbyPanic. Anger. PainThose three emotions coursing within me were causing havoc .I need to find her. I couldn't loose her. At least not in such a way.I tried to think of the specific spots that she could have probably run off in order to look for me and trust me that that was the most important thing I had thought to do because I found her almost instantly when I arrived at the meadowThere she was, curled into a small ball and I could hear whimpers coming from herShe too knew that there was danger but despite that she rushed straigh
You betrayed meAnd I don't really careIf you feel sorry Olivia RodrigoThe day that I had been waiting for had finally arrived.It was the day that I was going to leave everything behind, except Amaya of course, because staying here would probably make things worse for her, and start all over againDespite Xerxes's warning, I was still in communication with Lucien however it was much more low-keyLucien helped me with the adoption process for Amaya and it was surprisingly really really fast.Maybe it was due to the fact that their laws and requirements were different from us humans and also because he was one of the stake holders of the orphanage.Lucien also helped me in terms of the assets that my parents, may their souls rest in peace , had left me.I then came to know that I already had money , like a lot of money deposited in numerous bank accounts and I had about ten estates in my name alreadyNot to forget that I just happened to have lots of shares in different major com

This might look like really small and all but I know that I wouldn't have been able to get the courage to submit it if it weren't for y'all. Once again , I love y'allHook. Line . Sinker"I'm sorry"He whispered.Those two words.I'm sorry.I know that I said those words initially just to make him feel guilty so that he would actually let me go, but then , tell me why I felt a piece of my heart literally break from withinI'm sorryThose two words disoriented meI'm sorryTell me why I felt my throat clog and why it suddenly got harder to breathI'm sorryTell me why the tears that were trickling from my eyes flowed non stop.The word sorry.He was sorry?Why was he sorry? Why was he sorry now?"No"I found myself replying before I could even think"I have hurt you so much Andrea and you are right. I should never have done what I did to you. I shouldn't h
Soooo hey guys. I for one just want to apologize for the lack of updates, let me tell y'all, my life right now has been like a very effed up movie slash book.Buuuuuuut since y'all are amazing and y'all leave really nice comments and vote, I got motivated again.And despite none of you asking for it, I'll occasionally rant and give you some teaa. Anyways don't forget to comment and vote. Love y'allPreviously on Unshatter Me"Don't forget whose pack you're in Andrea. I may have fired you from the orphanage but that doesn't mean that you can roam around freely and do as you please in this packYou shall be assigned new responsibilities by the end of the week and I expect you to carry them out otherwise you will have to face the consequences ""I agree.

"Lycanthrope!"Well no shit Sherlock It was Larissa who unceremoniously spat out as she dramatically held her hands to her mouth in a sad excuse of what I assumed was shock.The glint of frustration that so happened to be in her eyes gave her awayA missed opportunity. That was what she was so shocked about .My eyes darted to that of Xerxes and I couldn't help but feel enragedIt was truly a good thing that I had decided to keep Charlie as a secret.Who knows what this pair of wolves would have done if they found out about little CharlieJudging from the expressions on their faces they might have as well locked him up and molded him into being an asset to the pack or even worse bred him with one their daughters in the future or they may as well make him a weapon that they could use whenever they would please in order to satisfy their selfish desiresMy attention went back to the unfamiliar faces.Judging from the way Charlie seemed calm and the way his little tail wagged, I could
