Bloom Pov
I curled my toes in my socks to make them a little warm .I was only wearing a white tank top and really really loose mickey mouse PJ pants . Waking up in the middle of nowhere in the woods was terrifying. My head hurt alot as I tried to get up .I dusted off the soil from my PJs and adjusted my glasses .How in the world did I find myself here.
I need to get back home because it was late . A branch cracked in the distance disrupting my sad thoughts .I jumped over the huge tree trunk I sat and hid myself .I was quite small so this wasn't the problem .I peeked over the tree trunk and saw a huge dark black wolf .I was stuck in my spot sweating from fear .The wolf had striking green eyes which were mesmerizing and hard to look away from
"please go away,"I sniff
It whimpered at my statement and tried to come closer.Was it finding ways to eat me ? I don't want to die in this gruesome way ! Everything about this wolf was pulling me and nothing was more scary than that I don't know how but I started to back away slowly until I hit a branch .I felt dizzy and everything became blurry. My glasses had fallen and I couldn't see anything .But the only Thing I could see was the big black figure with striking green eyes coming closer to me and closer.....
I hissed loudly as my leg hit the table.Cold water was splashed on me violently as I woke up.
"Wake up lazy bones!"my father screamed as the remaining drops of cold water spilt on me . as lm drenched with cold freezing water . I sit up groggily and rub my throbbing head .I was tired and weak from the little sleep I had I don't know how long I was out but I think I was out for a long time.i look at my hands and my stomach growls.Its being two days since I had anything in my stomach .The last meal I had was pretty much a few slices of mouldy bread And water .
"Make me breakfast and clean the house while at it , Today we are moving !"
I know better than to answer back or question my father further because it would always result into a beating .So I just keep quiet and keep my head low as usual.We had been moving from state to state because every time the teacher or the guidance counselor noticed something or asked questions.My father would torture me for being negligent and careless and We would have to move from another state .
Last week Mrs Smith was worried about how tired how I looked all the time and the bruises I had on my neck that had resulted from chocking. She requested to see my father which earned me another beating and couldn't let me go back to school.
I had to learn from a very young age about make up and the perfect tricks to cover bruises and scars .I don't know how Mrs Smith had noticed the bruises on my neck but I guess it was my carelessness . Because I had made sure to cover up everything on my face and neck .
I start up quietly with my whole body shaking drenched in cold water .I slowly peeled off my clothes and took a quick shower before my father could notice anything .He always said that I didn't deserve nice things like a proper warm bath or a plate full of food .
I tied my thick blond hair up and decided to put on a some regular sweat pants and a hood .I made sure I put on the concealer properly this time to hide any sort of bruises that could show . After that I put on my glasses.
I went downstairs and immediately started preparing for breakfast before my father could come downstairs .If his food wasn't ready in time .It meant another severe punishment and no going out for the next one week.
I could hear my father's heavy footsteps as he came downstairs slowly .He plopped on the wooden chair and looked at me with the ugly scar on his check.
"Pack your bags munchkin because we are moving this morning. Your school is asking alot of questions again ,"He sneers
"Alright father ,"I reply with a small voice and my head bowed .
"And I have already found a school for you ,it's a public school this time maybe no body will pay attention to your ugly face ,"he snorts
"Alright father,"I answer trying to mask my sadness. But a few tears escape .I wipe them quickly before he can notice anything because that meant another punishment or beating.My father hated pity.
" Are you crying again ?" He asks menacingly .
"No Papa,"I hiccup
I can feel his dark presence on me as he stands up slowly from his chair .
"Look at me !"he shouts .
I lift my head slowly I swallow the fear I have in my throat .
"You good for nothing!" He shouts as he slaps me across the face .My cheek grows hot and I touch it soothingly.
"What did I tell you about crying in my face ,"He growls
" No no crying papa ,"I stutter.
"No what?!"he repeats and proceeds to slap me again .
" No ..no.. crying papa,"I stutter loudly.
"Say it properly,"He shouted punching me in my stomach .
I stumbled back and try to keep my tears from falling.I don't know what to do now .I have tried so hard to hide my stuttering but I don't know how to.
"No crying papa,"I say it firmly without stuttering this time .
"Good now get out of my face before I lose the least bit of appetite I have,"
"And don't forget to pack your stuff!"he adds
I leave silently and head upstairs slowly in pain.When I finally reach my room i grab my pillow and cry so much to release the pain.The only way out of this house is through death .I had planned to leave the house when I was 18 but my father threatened me to never leave this place only if I ever die.
I grab my tiny suitcase and pack all my stuff . Which is only a picture of my mum ,my old doll and some clothes I have.There isn't much that i have because my father said i never deserved nice things. I was only allowed to keep these things because it was enough for me .
Maddox "Come in!"I barked .A girl with medium height shuffled slowly into my office. Yes since our pack was getting bigger and with the school work and pack work .My mum suggested I have an office next to the pack library. In her hands were two large files worth of Paper work .She timidly put the files on my table. "Maddox ,"She said while putting the things down . "Please address me as alpha,"I demand with a very straight face. "I'm so sorry Alpha ,"she apologizes while pulling her skirt alittle higher. Well you would think as a single mate less werewolf with high testosterone levels .I was going to actually be distracted but no I'm not .Im not disgusted either I'm disappointed and irritated.My mother suggested that after my beta Luke Left for intense training plus school opening this . She thought it would be alright if one of the gamma's daughter would help with the pack's paper work and mayb
Bloom *Flashback* "Mummy what are you doing?"I ask while holding my teddy bear tightly . "We are going on a road trip honey ," Something told me that this was not just a road trip . Because the way my mum packed my clothes and her clothes in a hurry worried me .She pulled all my clothes from the hanger and folded them quickly and zipped up my suitcase. "Is daddy coming too ?"I asked scared . "No he is not honey ,its just you and me ,"she replied kneeling down and looking at me squarely in the eye with black glasses on "But I want him to come mummy ,"I pleaded. " On the next road trip okay honey,"She assured me while removing her glasses She had a purple eye and some scratches on her forehead. My heart dropped because Mummy always had marks and bruises Everytime they would argue .She would always tell me to go to
Maddox My beta Luke was ready, he bounced up in the car seat as I drove out of the gate .I could smell his anxiety and excitement as he fastened his seatbelt.I wasn't excited but certainly calm . But I certainly know for a fact that at the end of today .I will probably rip some one's throat.I don't understand why the Fuck i have to go to school. "Maddox stop that growling ," " My wolf is just antsy," "That makes the two of us , despite all of this I'm most certainly excited to meet my mate if she out there , " Luke had a big grin on his face .This was certainly not my beta right now.he never mirrored my grumpiness but he was never this excited for school .I kept my eyes on the road a i drove. "Well let me run you down the people that were there during my intense training ," "I don't even want to know ," Apparently Luke had come today and decided to surprise me . I had actually missed this dude
Bloom I'm so excited for my class which is chemistry .Chemistry is my favourite science and i have never gotten a lower mark in chemistry since 10th grade . Im so excited and nervous at the same time because as soon as enter. I can hear the low whispers and comments as I enter . 'She's tiny '' She had an altercation with jane ' I could every whisper as people in class looked at me .I was already nervous and shaken from what just happened earlier and i was already begging the ground to swallow me just now . My eyes immediately fall onto the mysterious guy's green eyes and he just stares right back at me . My cheek's turn red immediately he notices me . I feel his eyes stare at me the entire time in class. "Hey come sit next to me ,"a cheerful girl with long dark hair waves at me . I quickly sit down on the chair next to her and put all my books on the desk . " Hi I'm Megan and you are?"The girl asks .
Maddox*FLASH BACK*I groaned as the silver chains cut through my skin .The pain was minimal but it was enough to subdue my wolf.Clover and my mother looked at me worriedly through the cage . "Why are you doing this ?"I screamed. "We have to put your beast to sleep Maddox ,we can't deal with something else.." "Something else huh..." I laughed humorously ,"of course but you don't know what you are doing because I can control myself." I growl so loud the walls shake "You can't ,"Clover jumps .She smiles sadly and looks at me with that same look "And how would you know it just let me out," I growled. "You have no one else to answer to Maddox and you don't have a mate to remove the curse ..we need to fix you for now," "You are making a mistake !"I scream." No! noo !let me go!" I thrash around and groan as I try to get free from the chains b
Bloom After Mrs Black announced who we should be partnered with . I was very anxious to be paired to be with Maddox.Jane was not happy about it for sure. Her jealously could be felt in waves even when she was far . She gave me dirty looks everywhere I was going and I just wanted the ground to swallow me whole . I made sure to avoid her at every point in school " Don't worry Bloom ,she won't do anything to you ," Megan assures me while squeezing my hand as she escorts me to the library. "Well she's has been giving me dirty looks the whole time "I reply trying not to sound worried. "Hey !"Megan faces me with determination on her face and shakes my shoulder gently ."you have me alright," "Thank you Megan ," I hug her feeling slightly comforted That she would actually do something to defend me . We both say our goodbyes to each other and I head off to the library
BloomA small figure with long dark brown hair appears in my peripheral vision and smiles nervously. She has the same green eyes as Maddox .The only difference is that her eyes are more cheerful and light. She stands awkwardly and continues to smile apologetically. "I'm really sorry ,I just thought I needed to check on my dip shit brother ......."she explains feeling really embarrassed. "It's okay we were just concluding on our discussion right Bloom ?"Maddox clears his throat immediately without sparing a moment to look at me when he turns to look at me .His eyes are back to his natural green colour which have a look of disappointment and regret. "Yes we were,"I agree looking anywhere but him . I feel so embarrassed and ashamed. Did I really Imagine Maddox almost kissing me .I unconsciously touch my lips to sooth myself from the ache that im feeling .It doesn't even matter anyway. "
Bloom It's 5am in the morning and Iam up already . I wake up feeling defeated . I try to get up from bed but the pain from last night's beating shoot through my body .I look outside my window and it's dark outside.Well great I mutter to myself . Another horrible day ! I take a quick painful shower not because I'm in a hurry but I'm only allowed five minutes of a shower a day . Though most of the times my father would just dump cold freezing water on me . Well not a blissful bath right... I let my hair down and decide to wear a white hoodie with some baggy jeans. Sadly I lost my black hoodie a while ago , which would have been a perfect fit to hide myself I guess. By 7am I make sure to make father breakfast and leave the house clean because if I don't do any of those. I will get another punishment.my body already shivers at the thought of another beating. The rest of the day at school goes by quickly as I spot Maddox with his infamous scowl . He doesn't acknowledg
