I am nearly 18 years old and the oldest child of Alpha Lucan Nightshade and Luna Rhea Nightshade of the Deadly Nightshade pack.I have a twin brother named Statham Steele Nightshade. He is 20 minutes younger than I am, and this is the cause of one of the main reasons I am hated so much by my family.I also have 3 younger brothers, Sutton Salem Nightshade is 17 years old and twins Stephen Sterling Nightshade and Skyler Samuel Nightshade are 16 years old. The reason I am hated by my family is when my mother was pregnant with my brother and I, she was told by the pack doctor that she would be having twin boys.This news made my parents extremely happy has having twin alpha sons to run the pack would make our pack one of the strongest in the country. So imagine the surprise they got when on the 4

Serenity's POVAfter that incident 2 years ago, my dad, Lucan, stuck to his plan for me and I was home schooled and made to cook from that day onwards.In 2 years the shit I cope from the pack hasn't changed and I am honestly reaching my breaking point.I have had nearly every bone in my body broken multiple times, I've been beaten so badly I've nearly died 5 times, I've had internal bleeding, fractures, concussions, a punctured lung, contusions, I've been whipped with a silver whip 2 times for talking back to Alpha Lucan, I've been given wolfsbane 3 more times when I became "unruly", I've been locked in the cells for weeks on end, the list goes on of the torture and abuse I have suffered. I am sick of being abused, yelled at, pushed around, used as a slave ect.I turn 18 in a month and Artemis and I have decided that we're going to runaway from the pack, as we don't deserve to be treated like this.I need to wait till I'm 18 as if I try leave before then and I get caught by any other

Serenity's POV"This is fucking bullshit and you know it. I never attacked the Luna. After I was thrown in the dungeon last night after getting in trouble for going to the waterfall, one of you or the Luna herself inflicted those injuries because there is no way I could of done it with a dislocated shoulder, a fractured shoulder and having my head slammed into the cell wall. I was already injured before seeing you from beatings from the Savage Six earlier that day." I yelled.The pack gasps in surprise, outrage and a range of other emotions, because I have just disrespected their Alpha with the way I spoke to him."Watch your tone with me Serenity, I am your Alpha and you will NOT disrespect me. You will receive 25 lashes every 2 days now instead of 20 and on top of that you will be chained in silver cuffs while this happens so you won't heal as quick. One more outburst and I will kill you right now." my father replies to me angrily.Lowering my head I say "Yes Alpha". My brother Sky

SKYLER'S POVIt's the middle of the night and I have snuck into the pack hospital again to see my sister Serenity. It's been nearly 2 months since her punishment. Watching Sutton deliver her punishment was truly disturbing. I have never seen something like that before and it will stay with me forever. You could tell he was enjoying it and was taking pleasure in the way he hurt her.Looking at her laying on the hospital bed with her back looking like someone attacked it with a meat cleaver makes me furious and distraught at the same time.I wanted to step in and stop Sutton but I knew if I did then I would have been punished aswell.I gently hold my sister's hand and just pray to the moon goddess she will be ok.Since I was old enough to understand, Stephan and I have been raised to hate Serenity. We were told that she was evil, that she tried to kill Statham when they were little, that she stole Statham's right to be the future Alpha and she also got our older brother Stryker killed d

I try to open my eyes but they feel so heavy.Just laying there listening to my surroundings I can hear what sounds like muffled sobs and someone holding my hand. I stay perfectly still and keep my heart rate steady and breathing even so that whoever is there doesn't realize I'm awake yet.I try to see if I can find out who it is by their scent without drawing attention to me.I gently breath in through my nose and get the scent of the person in the room with me.I get the scent of sandlewood and linen. Why is Skyler in my room? I keep laying there hoping he might say something so I can figure out why his here."Serenity, if you can hear me I just want to let you know that I am so sorry for the way everyone has treated you, myself included, I never wanted to treat you like this but I had no choice.
