My first love is fated to my step-sister

CHAPTER-4

That vision shocked me even more and what was that creature? what strange vision I was shown?

We got back to  West forest Castle after finishing our classes. And until the completion of my stepsister Amanda's birthday, we won't be attending any classes. We were all assigned to work including me in the castle. After washing and changing my dress  I went to the castle with a bucket of phenyl water and mop by my hand. I couldn'tbelieve that I was standing in the west castle hall. After so long years,  I could see the castle.  Since the day I last saw it, many things have changed since those years.

I remembered those days when I used to play with Jordan and Ella in this Castle and I smiled all by myself thinking about my past. But it has become like a dream for me to ever set foot on this castle. If only I could transform into a werewolf then my father would have accepted me and loved me even though I was his illegitimate child. I only know I was an illegitimate child to Humphrey D.Jones.

While I was in forlorn, one of the wolves called me and it was Mr. Michaels, Ella's father. Unlike other wolves who treated me badly, he treated me kindly and supervised me. He showed me every corner of the castle and taught me what to do and what not to do while cleaning.  I nodded my head and began to clean. Sure, Ella's father is just kind-hearted as she is and it made me glad that I was treated s the way I deserved.  I  began to wet the mop and started with the hall side. Leaving the floor clean and shiny.  I did all works so perfectly that my stepmother and her friends who were observing my work were grinning their teeth for not getting any chance to criticize me.

After I had done cleaning, I moved towards the east of the hall. And in the east of the hall resides someone dear to me, Jordan. I was enraptured to see Jordan and his reaction when he finds me in the castle before him.  I   purposely moved towards the east side so I could secretly look for him. And when I reached there, kept on cleaning cause I forgot where his room was cause he only told direction but didn't mention which room.  But to make things non-suspicious,  I pretended to move on and clean the floor of the east hall side.

If I met him by chance then I will give him a surprise. He would be very happy to know that I got permission to enter inside West forest Castle for today. I kept on mopping and mopping while   Other wolves who re passing by my way, were disgustingly staring at me.  I don't even know them, how can they look at me with a disgusting expression? I am a wolfless girl and an illegitimate child of Humphrey one who leads the whole pack.  I walked faster with mop and bucket to get myself away from their resentful eyes.  I kept on walking fast until  I   saw Jordan from far out of blue.  I waved to him but guess he didn't see me. I was walking like he is upset and rushed towards his dad's study room.

I hastily cleaned the areas and followed the direction where Jordan was heading to. I stood in front of his dad's study room and sneaked to see him.

He seemed like he was in a bad mood because he was throwing things here and there. I couldn't get an idea of what is fishy here, so I crawled towards their small window where no one could see me sneaking on their conversation.

"Dad, this is not fair! I already rejected my first mate and you want me to get engaged again with someone I don't even like? what's wrong with you dad?" Jordan asked his father tempestuously.

"Listen to me Jordan, I'm your father, and behave well as my Son or I will break your bones. You have humiliated me by rejecting your previous mate and you are in love with that good for nothing Victoriana??" Mr. Adams stood violently from his chair.

Jordan liked me? this question was enough to put me in whole shock and yet he never let me know he had a feeling for me. But most importantly! he hid that he had already met his mate and yet he didn't tell me? Ella too belongs in this castle and I'm sure she too knew about it but why didn't anyone let me know about it?is it cause both of them thought that  I would get hurt?

"Please don't you drag Victoriana in this! she doesn't think me as of that way!" she doesn't even have a vibe of me liking her. And why you are so desperate for matching with that shitty Amanda? you know I never had such feelings towards her. This is so unfair! you can't sacrifice your son's life for your benefit!" Jordan tried to persuade with his all strength but it seemed like his father had turned himself deaf towards his own son's feelings for his selfishness and God knows what's that!

Sacrificing Jordan for his benefits? what was that? What does Mr.Adams want to benefit from his son's relationship with my family? what motives he is holding?

Now I get it. He had selfish intentions for his sons that Jordan can be the next Alpha of the west forest pack. He threatened Jordan further that he will be deprived to be called his son I and abandon him if he doesn't do as he says. Jordan remained silent and became hopeless to make his father understand cause now his father is blinded by his selfish ambitions.

"Do whatever you like father! It's not like I've lived my life according to my terms. you had control over everything I do since the day I was born ." he walked away from the study room with anger and tears in his eyes.

When he came out of his father's study room, He sniffed as he sensed something. He followed my scent and in a  blink of an eye, he found me where I was peeping at him.

"I knew it was you, Victoriana !" he softly gazed at me with his numb and teary eyes. He had a lot in his heart but was unable to express it.

"What are you doing here?" he asked me starting with his red numb eyes.

" Oh! I was ordered by Alpha to clean the castle for the party ."

Oh, I see ! thought it's much rare for you to visit West forest castle Victoriana! okay! I'll see you in some time I have some things to do sorry! He was trying to hide his emotions by pretending as he was busy.

I couldn't stop him though. I wish I could stop him and say I too love him. But it has no point now we don't have our future together and  I think it's better this way cause I  don't want to see him living miserable because of me and love someone who is not a werewolf and not of his match.  I can't put him into humiliation because of me.  I have to become strong as I have always been.  I do feel devasted inside but  I can't cry loud cause this place doesn't value my tears. Everyone is stone-hearted here my father, my stepmother, my step-sister, Mr.Adams. Everyone is just selfish and doesn't give a damn about what others feel.

I proceeded with my work and for continuous 3 days before Amanda's birthday. I ignored Jordan whenever I was near to him.    I got to know that they will be declared mate on Amanda's birthday as I heard from other wolves and  I have to give up on this feeling for  mine and Jordan's good .
