In the living room, Amelia's grandfather, mother, and father were seated, their faces stern. Amelia stood before them, her head downcast, tears slowly falling onto her feet. Was it really so wrong to resist him? She was acutely aware that her greatest critics were her family members, especially her grandfather. Poor Amelia.
"You foolish child! Haven't you grown tired of being a failure?" Mrs. Dave spat, her voice tinged with rage."Look at this family," Grandfather admonished, pointing at Amelia. "I led this pack as if it were my only possession and handed it over to your father. He and his wife have run it with their very essence, sacrificing everything for the pack's happiness. No one shirked their duty or was useless. Why must you be the exact opposite?"Mr. Dave simply shook his head, at a loss for words, his eyes filled with disappointment and contempt as he stared at his daughter.Insults continued to rain down on Amelia. Was this how life was meant to be? When even her family didn't believe or trust her, who would? She had run all the way home, only to be met with scorn and threats.After what seemed an eternity, Mr. Dave finally spoke. "If Alpha Azrael refuses to marry you, I promise to make your life a living hell. You'll wish you were dead."Death? What was Amelia even living for? With such abuse and suffering, would she even want to return to this life if given another chance?Amelia's face reddened as tears flowed freely. No one was on her side; this rejection had been the theme of her life."You are an utter disgrace to our family, to our pack! You didn't deserve to be born," her father declared, his words cutting deep."We've provided everything for you!" Grandfather, a former king of the pack, said with disgust. "Your father raised you to be the next queen of this pack, but you're nothing but a powerless wolf in name only.""You couldn't even do this small favor to save your pack? How can you be so selfish, thinking only of yourself?" her father demanded.Amelia's thoughts were a whirlwind, struggling to understand where it had all gone wrong. Was it her lack of power? Had she been too obedient? As she pondered, tears cascaded down her face.She did her best to hide her injured foot, fearing more ridicule. Her head hung in shame as the insults continued, each word stabbing at her like a physical wound."At times, I wonder if you're a witch," Mrs. Dave added.Their words reverberated in her head: failure, useless, unwanted, powerless. Amelia's mind was in turmoil, her pain growing.Amelia's voice trembled as she tried to apologize. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to disappoint you. But he is 45 years old and I am just 18.”"It doesn’t matter and Sorry doesn't cut it, Amelia!" her father bellowed. "You must take responsibility for your actions, not expect everything handed to you."She felt cornered, attacked, and overwhelmed. All she wanted was to escape this nightmare.Somehow, the pain and insults were not new. Their words only added to the emotional turmoil inside her.An ordinary 18-year-old might be pampered by family, but not Amelia. She had never been given what she wanted, always striving to fulfill her parents' selfish desires.Time and again, her parents reminded her of her worthlessness. Unable to control her tears, she cried inwardly, "What sort of life is this?"•••••Alpha Azrael walked towards the sofa and took a seat, staring at Amelia, who was trembling. Mr. Dave cleared his throat, "She's the reason why you're here, I presume?"Alpha Azrael nodded. "Yes, we searched for her for hours, then the news came to us that she had run away from the palace. I just came here because I was very concerned.""Don't worry, Alpha Azrael, she's brought false news," Mr. Dave replied.Amelia's eyes widened in shock. How could they dismiss her so easily? The room filled with debate, accusations, and defenses, with Amelia's grandfather even pleading for mercy for his granddaughter.After much pleading, Alpha Azrael decided to reconsider. "Can we have time alone, please? I need to talk to your daughter."Mr. Dave nodded, Alpha Azrael led Amelia into the guest room, his eyes cold and unyielding. As soon as they were alone, he closed the door behind them and turned to face her."What were you thinking?" he demanded, his voice stern.Amelia's eyes widened in fear. She began to shake even more. She had never had a serious conversation with Alpha Azrael before. The weight of his hand on her shoulder caused her legs to tremble."Speak up, what is your problem?" he shouted. "Did you think they would believe you?" He laughed and began to pace back and forth.Amelia's throat felt dry; she tried to form words but could only stammer. "I... I thought...""You thought what?" he snapped, coming closer to her. His hot breath on her neck sent shivers down her spine. "You are nothing but a slave and a sex doll for me, child. That's what you'll be for the rest of your miserable life."Amelia's heart pounded in her chest. The words were like daggers, piercing her very soul. She wanted to protest, to tell him he was wrong, but the fear in her eyes betrayed her.He continued, his voice dripping with malice. "Shouldn't you be happy that a respected Alpha like me agreed to marry a useless wolf like you? Let me make this clear to you." He leaned in, his face inches from hers. "You're a piece of trash. I'm just doing your parents a favor by marrying you."Tears welled in Amelia's eyes. The cruelty in his words was too much to bear. She felt trapped, with nowhere to turn.He walked towards the door, pausing to look back at her one last time. "Get used to it, child. This is your life now." And with that, he left the room.Amelia sat on the ground, broken and defeated. The weight of the words and the realization of her impending marriage to this cruel man were too much to handle.The words hung in the air long after he had gone, echoing in her mind, a constant reminder of her new reality.Even After he left, she can hear her family talking in the other room and continued to berate her, leaving her feeling choiceless and alone."How could she have say I sleep with other woman’s? I wanted a Luna but not a spoiled brat. I have a great name in our community. I don’t want to ruin it because of your daughter. If she doesn’t want to marry me, it’s fine. I can find another Woman better than your daughter. What else does your daughter want, Alpha Dave?” Alpha Azrael asked Mr. Dave."Don't worry about her, Alpha Azrael; she's just a child. Please forgive her.” Grandfather said.The conversation continued, and nobody noticed when Amelia ran out of the house and headed for the pack's river.Dragging her foot on the floor, she arrived at her destination. She sat by the waterside and began to reflect on her miserable life. She laughed with tears in her eyes, "What a life!"She looked at herself in the river, the reflection of herself made her wonder. But she knew the only peace she would have in her life would be after her death.She nodded her head smiling and said to herself, looking at her reflection in the river, “Goodbye cruel world." Those were the last words that came out of the mouth of the miserable girl."Hello, hello." The voice of an unfamiliar presence echoed in her mind, jolting her back to the present.Slowly, she opened her eyes, confronting the sight of two peculiar men standing before her. Her body ached, a reminder of the mishap she had suffered earlier."Hello miss," one of the strangers attempted to engage her. "How are you feeling?"Fully alert now, Ivy stammered, "Where am I? What's going on?""We saw you nearly drown and rescued you," the other man explained."Drown? Are you serious? I was hit by a vehicle! Where even am I?" Ivy exclaimed, taking in the unfamiliar forested landscape, centered by a river, devoid of any vehicles.Seeing her confusion, the two men exchanged uneasy glances. "Come, let's bring you to the palace where you belong," one offered."Palace?" She parroted, her voice altered. "What happened to my voice? What did you do?"Their expressions displayed as much confusion as hers. They couldn't comprehend the strange manner of their princess.Ivy's shock e
After a long period of blackout, Ivy slowly opened her eyes again. Now she was no longer by the riverside, she was lying on a soft bed in a lavish room, the walls adorned with intricate designs and gold accents. “What is this place?” she asked herself as she raised her body off the bed and tried to seat up. Still feeling disoriented and confused, she looked around the room and then noticed a woman sitting by her side, her face a mixture of anger and concern. A voice from within her called "Mother""Mother?" Ivy thought to herself. “What the fuck!”“What the hell is wrong with you this little pretender?” Mrs Dave yelled. “Who are you? Why did you bring me here? How did I get here?” Ivy couldn't help but think if she was now a magician. From the accident to the hospital to the riverside and now a lavish room. “No...No..No... What is all this?” “What is your problem? Why are you shouting?” Mrs Dave said.“Are you mad? Who the fuck are you?” Ivy said, increasing the tone of her voice.
Ivy felt a heavy lump of vomit in her throat as she watched herself in the mirror."No! No!! No!!!" She said as she began to move backwards, one leg after the other."What did you do to me?" she cried out as she held the long black hair attached to her head. At this point, Mr and Mrs Dave did not know whether Amelia was faking this whole thing or if it was real. But how would it be real? She had just fallen into the river on purpose so it definitely was part of her plan to avoid the marriage as they won't let her be until she gets married to the Diamond pack's Alpha Azrael.Ivy immediately took advantage of their confused state and ran as fast as she could towards the door. She stepped on the broken glass which where scattered all around her room. "Ouch, ouch, ouch, MY LEG!" That did not stop her from running, she tried her best to outrun and outsmart each and every one of them."Get her!" Mr Dave shouted in a loud angry voice as they ran towards her. Ivy kept running with all the stre
"Amelia, what the heck is wrong with you." Mrs Dave said as she angrily came down the stairs to meet Ivy and the men who had bundled her like a set of wood."Isn't it enough, put me down."The guards look at Mr Dave who was standing at the last step of the stairs, and he nodded in affirmation. They then set Ivy down on her feet and stepped back, keeping a watchful eye on her. Mrs Dave walked up to Ivy and looked her up and down, clearly displeased."Why all this drama? Are you not tired? You know that whatever you do doesn't really make any difference. You are getting married and that's it." Mrs Dave seemed to have added volume to her voice."Who the hell do you think you are to raise your voice at me?..."In the middle of Ivy's outburst, Mrs Dave interrupted her with a massive slap on her pale face. Ivy stumbled back from the force of the slap, her hand flying to her cheek as she gasped in shock. She looked up at Mrs Dave, her eyes wide with disbelief. In the history of Ivy's life, h
Ivy's heart sank further at the thought of being completely cut off from the outside world. How was she supposed to figure out what was going on if she couldn't even check the date or time? She felt a growing sense of panic rising within her." How about the year, what year is this?" Ivy asked.The maid scratched her head profusely, they never really cared about the year or date and of course, it was none of their business. All they knew was to serve the royal family for as long as they live. But thinking of this, Miss Amelia had never asked her these kinds of questions before so what prompted all this? The maid wanderedAs the maid stood there thinking, Ivy's heart sank a little. Was she really that out of touch with the world that she didn't even know what year it was."I'm sorry, Miss Amelia, I don't really keep track of the year," the maid finally replied apologetically. "Is there anything else I can help you with, Miss Amelia?" the maid asked kindly, sensing Ivy's unease.Ivy hes
As Ivy just laid down there the tension in her muscles began to melt away, and she closed her eyes, letting out a contented sigh. For a few minutes, she simply lay there, letting the warm water wash over her. But as she opened her eyes and looked around the bathroom, she couldn't help but feel a sense of curiosity.What else was there in this palace? What other secrets and wonders lay hidden within its walls? Ivy knew that she had to find out. The cool cream soothed her skin, and Ivy let her eyes close as the maid softly hummed a tune while she worked.For a while, Ivy simply let herself relax, feeling the warm water and the comforting presence of the maid wash over her. But as the minutes ticked by, her mind began to wander back to the problem she had been struggling with earlier.The sense of defeat she had felt earlier began to creep back in, and Ivy felt a wave of frustration wash over her. She leaned her head back against the tub, feeling a lump form in her throat.The maid pause
*Kinsmen Pack*Mariam stepped out of the bathroom with very exposing lingerie. She looked really attractive that even Alpha Alexander couldn't hide his reaction."At your service, my Alpha, do to me whatever you want." She said as she approached the bed where Alpha Alexander was sitting.Alpha Alexander was not too much of a talking type, but he was sure a man of action. His v-shaped face was as bright as ever, we could tell that he was amazed by what he had seen and was ready to finish work on Mariam that night. His cobalt blue eyes became even brighter and more glued to the view when Mariam began to take her dress off. He didn't just want to pounce on her yet, he just wanted her to display what she had and then he would take over from there.Mariam drew even closer to Alpha Alexander, his muscular body hitting her on every side as she tried to seduce him. She played her way through his chest and marked out all the bisect and trisect on them. He was so built and had a very nice and a
Ivy is still struggling to fall asleep in her new environment. Everything feels so unfamiliar, and she just can't seem to get comfortable enough to drift off. Her mind kept racing with thoughts of how she could escape this living hell or how she could cope with it.On top of that, the nightmares are getting worse. It's like they're uncontrollable, and she can't escape them even when she is awake. Ivy feels so frustrated and doesn't even know which is worse her day or her night.She kept rolling from one end of the bed to the other, trying to find a position that will bring her some semblance of comfort. But it's no use. Her mind is too busy and her body is too tense.Then, just as she is starting to feel like she might finally be able to fall asleep, she hears the sound of birds chirping right outside her window. It's like the universe is taunting her, reminding her that she can't even find peace in the morning. Ivy couldn't help but yell out in frustration, "Fuck!"Ivy let out a deep
