CHAPTER ONE!
Josephine
*Beep Beep Beep*
My alarm goes off, another glorious morning in my wonderful home full of love and affection from my wonderful family. Oh, how I wish this were all true, but I must tell myself something in order to get through the day. But my life isn’t so great. My parents aren’t too fond of me, and They feel the need to remind me what a disgrace I am and how worthless I am. The reason for my parents acting this way towards me makes me think that maybe there really is something wrong with me.
I’m almost eighteen and my parents think I haven’t been able to shift into my wolf yet, most people in our pack get their wolf when they are sixteen, but I got mine when I was ten, I just never told anyone that I got her, especially my family. If my family knew I got my wolf they would think…I don’t really know what they would think, I just can’t take that risk that it could be disastrous for me. I have managed to shift into my wolf without anyone in the pack or my family finding out. Now you must be wondering why I haven’t let my family and pack members know I have a wolf, well I don’t know exactly why, all she tells me is that I can’t let anyone know that I have her and all she tells me is that I can reveal everything one day, just not yet.
So, back to my family and why I hate them so much. Don’t worry I will fill you in on everything as time goes on.
See, I have any older sister Heather and she is already eighteen and she has had her wolf since the night of her sixteenth birthday and she has already shifted and she is in the process of trying to find her mate, but she hasn’t found him yet, she acts like its Max, our Alpha’s son. He will be our Alpha one day once he finds his mate and graduates from school. Heather has had a crush on him for so long. She has tried a few times to get his attention and has tried to get him to accept her as his mate, he has explained to her that it’s not going to happen but she refuses to move on, she still follows him around and tries everything she can to get his attention, but he refuses to give in to her demands. If that’s what you want to call it, he says she is crazy and manages to avoid her as much as he can. He knows it will fade once she finds her true mate.
But if they were each other’s true mate they would have been together already, so we all know that since he hasn’t made the move to let everyone know, there is only a couple of reasons as to why he hasn’t found his mate yet. It could be that either his mate isn’t within our pack, or she hasn’t turned eighteen yet.
So I will fill you in a bit on my sister she has always been the most popular girl at school, and she has always been liked by all the guys, and all the girls want to be her best friend, everyone thinks she is so pretty, she has long blonde hair, she is tall and skinny with no curves, but everyone seems to think she is perfect, she has blue eyes and in my parents eyes she can never do anything wrong. Me on the other hand, I can never get anything right. They tell me how worthless I am and how I am fat, and I will never find my mate, and if I do then he will reject me because nobody would ever want to be with someone who is a short, fat useless she-wolf who doesn’t even have a wolf.
I’m not fat really, I’m on the shorter side maybe like four nine and I have long dark brown hair with a tint of red in it and I have green eyes and I have curves. My best friend Sarah tells me all the time how she wishes she had my curves. She always tells me how I have the best curves and any man would be lucky to have me.
But here I am getting ready for another glorious day at my wonderful high school full all my wonderful friends. Can you hear the sarcasm in my voice? I’m just lucky to at least have Sarah. I don’t think I would make it through life if she wasn’t my friend.
I do all I can to keep myself on the right track. I do anything I can to keep my parents and Heather from getting mad at me I keep my head down at school and I basically just do my work and stay out of everyone’s way. Or I try to at least, somehow, some way someone manages to pick on me or find a way to make my life miserable.
As I’m getting myself ready for school, I dress myself in my favorite black skinny jeans, they have rips in the knees and along the thigh on the front and back of my legs. I grab my red converse shoes, and simple white tank top and a one of my favorite pull over hoodies.
I hear my parents’ downstairs with Heather in the kitchen, I’m dreading to go down there, maybe I should stall until they all leave. Or maybe I can sneak out without them even noticing me. But on the other hand, if I wait too long, I’m going to be late for school and if I’m late then my parents will hear about it and then I will be in even more trouble then I usually am.
Might as well get it over with. I make my way downstairs and try to sneak through the entryway and out the front door. I’m almost there when suddenly, I feel a hand grab my upper arm so tightly I know there is going to be a bruise there by this afternoon. When I look up to see who grabbed me I see my mom standing there glaring down at me and getting ready to yell me, I know she is going to ask where I’m going. She should know, It’s a weekday, so she shouldn’t even have to ask where I’m going. If she was smart enough she would realize I’m just going to school.
“I’m just going to school mom.”
she seems to think it’s funny because she and my sister give a small chuckle.
“Why do you even bother? You are too stupid to learn anything anyway, you are just a dumb, worthless girl. You have no wolf, which means you will never have a mate and you will end up alone forever. No wolf is going to want you, especially because of how worthless and fat you are.”
Her words hurt more than anything, but I need to have faith that she is wrong and that I do have a mate out there somewhere. I just need to get through school so I can escape this place and go find him. For now I need to appease her and make her think she is right so she won’t hurt me too badly.
“Yes mother. I know, But I feel like I need to keep up appearances for your sake. That way Alpha Thomas doesn’t know what goes on and you and dad won’t get into trouble for anything.”
Next thing I know I feel her bony fingers grabbing my jaw so hard that I know it will leave a red mark and I will have to come up with some excuse as to what happen. She leans down so she is mere inches from my face. And with her next words I can feel a little spit fly out of her mouth with the sords she says to me.
“You are threatening me girl?”
“No, I would never. I know better. I was just trying to remind you is all. I didn’t mean anything by it. I’m sorry. But I know that you already know what has to be done.”
“That’s right. You go to school and tell your so-called friend whatever excuse you must. If I find out the Alpha knows what goes on inside this house, my punishments will be the least of your concerns.”
“Yes mother.”
She releases my chin and I grab my bag off the floor and turn to walk out the door towards school. I don’t have any other way of getting to school other than walking. My parents won’t drive me, no matter what the weather is like. They tell me that it is part of my punishment for not having a wolf. So there really isn’t much I can do. On the cold or rainy days my best friend Sarah will give me rides to school, she always picks me up down the street, so my parents don’t find out. If they knew what she did they would find a way to punish her also, I can’t let that happen, so I just try to make do with what I have in life right now. When I make it down the street from my house I come to a stop because there is a car sitting at the end of the block and I quickly check my surroundings because if my mother saw that car sitting there, there would be hell to pay, not only me but for this person as well.
