Chapter 1 good day or worst day
Amelia’s P.O.V.
“It will not start running fast if you continue looking at it every second.” The head maid, Gloria, grumbled, hitting the back of my head playfully, catching me looking at my old wristwatch.
I smiled sheepishly and continued decorating the dinner table.
Who am I?
I am Amelia Roberts, an orphan omega in the Blue Moon Pack, and it’s my eighteenth birthday today.
I am so excited because I will meet my wolf tonight, also the only one who could be counted as my family.
Or maybe I also find my mate.
Sounds exciting, right?
Of course, it’s exciting because of werewolves; meeting your mate is the most precious and important event of their lives.
So, I was excited too, but I also didn’t want anyone from this pack to be my mate.
This pack sucks, especially the alpha and the beta families.
They treated omegas, especially orphans like me, as dirt beneath their shoes.
What an irony that I shared my birthday with the beta princess, but she was two years older than me.
My hands stopped automatically, and my hair stood up on my nape when I felt a stare on my back.
Her birthday party had already been going on in the main hall for more than three hours. There were so many guests from outside the pack, and I heard that the royal pack also sent their representatives here.
But I don’t want to be noticed by any of them because I might have my first shift at any time.
So, Gloria put me in the dining room. She was strict but cared about us.
“What happened now?” She yelled at me, glaring at me again.
“N… nothing.” I stammered and took a deep breath to calm myself down.
But that creepy feeling was now giving me goosebumps.
The presence was strong, indicating that he is a high-ranked wolf.
“Please go away.” I muttered in my heart, trembling in fear.
I didn’t smell my mate till now. So, the person who had his eyes on me isn’t my mate.
And werewolves are worse than humans when it comes to their desire for sx.
“Why did you stop again, Amy? Goddess!!!! Stop daydreaming.” Gloria scolded me again while yelling at me.
I hurriedly resumed my work, but my heart was now thudding hard against my ribcage.
I couldn’t tell her what I was feeling, or else she would be in danger too.
I breathed out the breath that I was holding for a long time after I felt relieved from that stare.
He was gone.
Thanks to the goddess that he left me alone.
“It’s about time for their arrival, Amy. Go back and don’t come back until I call you. It will be better if you go and have a run to the lake. First shift is easier if you are near any water body. Don’t forget to have an extra set of clothes with you,” Gloria instructed me sternly and almost pushed me out of the dining room after some time.
I had one more hour before 9, but I could feel my temperature rising, a clear indication of first shift. Gloria must have sensed it too.
That’s
“Okay, Gloria.” I replied and walked out of the dining room in long strides.
I went to the kitchen, which was attached to the dining room, and left things I had in my hands at a corner of the counter on the right side.
I walked out of the kitchen from the other door, which opened at the back of the pack house.
Our rooms, or rather what we called them, holding cells, were behind the storeroom, and it was the only way to go there.
My heart was still thudding hard against my ribcage with this feeling of uneasiness. I almost ran in the corridor so that I could reach my room as soon as possible.
“Aaahh.” I screamed when someone suddenly pulled me back out of nowhere near the store, but the person muffled my scream with a rag.
He dragged me towards the storeroom, and it panicked me.
I thrashed my weak body in his grip badly, but he lifted it up with ease and walked towards the storeroom in long strides.
This section of the pack house was completely deserted because all the maids and servants were in the main hall, serving and entertaining the guests.
The corridor was strangely dark, which spiked my fear to the next level.
The person must be a warrior, I could say, but all the worst scenarios filled my mind.
He threw me harshly inside the storeroom and closed the door behind him.
I immediately removed the rag from my mouth and gasped aloud in shock when a strong scent of cinnamon and clove hit my nostrils.
“Mate.” A voice boomed at the back of my mind, and my heart almost burst out of my chest in shock.
“How could I have such bad luck that I got you as my mate?” My heart almost stopped beating in fear when his voice shook my whole body.
The room was dark, but I could see him.
He was standing at the farthest dark corner of the room, his presence now suppressing my petite structure.
His dark green eyes were blazing in fury.
All my hope to find my mate was crushed at that very instant when I realized who my mate was.
I was already trembling hard because of the abduction, and now, my body was paralyzed for a good few seconds because of fear and the heartbreak, which was about to hit me at any time.
“A…a…a… Alpha?” I stuttered hard while whispering this single word, my neck already bared in submission.
He came out of the darkness, and now I could see his face completely.
His eyes were ablaze, filled with disgust and hatred.
A jolt of pain hit my guts to the extent that I felt everything churning there, and I felt nauseated.
He was my mate, but he was the worst nightmare of every unmated she-wolf in the pack.
Our beta princess was his bed partner for more than three years, but he fked whoever was willing to be his fk buddy.
In other words, he was just a wolf in heat all the time and could fk relentlessly more than two she-wolves in a single day.
His look was enough to tell me that he had already rejected me.
And he had no intention of giving me some time before he rejected me verbally and officially.
The pain in my chest intensified to the extent that I wanted to scream aloud. My wolf whimpered because of heartbreak.
Her emotional turmoil triggered something, which also increased the temperature of my body.
“So pathetic, so weak. Even the mere thought of bedding you made me want to puke, let alone taking you as my mate. You must have done something to get this opportunity.” He continued berating me with disgust and hatred evident in his voice.
