Chapter 2 -2-

He was a state of art; I saw him from afar the mansion getting out of his car with a grey suit on and sunglasses. He was divine, just looking at him made my heartbeat speed up. The need to avenge my mother and sister grew more than the grief that I had endured.

Alpha Raden ordered to keep me locked until the full moon made an appearance. Thoughts of what would I do on my own other than stare at nothing left me agitated more. I never had any freedom, mother told me I was no different than all of the girls my age. I had no knowledge of anything around me for the Alpha left us all in the dark. Thankfully, I knew how to take a shower and do my hair at least.

My white silky gown a pack member lent me was soft to my skin and made my breasts larger and my bum too. The fabric was breathable and I wished I could have it but morals were morals and I had to return it back tomorrow once Alpha decided what he would do with me. Something about that Alpha irritated my curiousness. I had to know who was he. I was the type of girl who was strong enough and independent. I didn't need a mate to complete me but I had to have one when I fully shift and when my wolf would sense our mate. For now, I felt empty with sad thoughts of my family.

The big room was too much to handle, I felt overwhelmed just sitting on the edge of the bed, listening to faint talks. What if that Alpha saw my shift? It would be very embarrassing for an unknown powerful Alpha to see a small pup like me. Wait, why did that thought about the unknown Alpha pass through my mind? I certainly didn't know him and Alpha Raden would have my head on a silver tray if I disobeyed him.

I clutched the pink sheets with my bare hands, growing more impatient and curious, I couldn't just wait here until I shifted. I had to do something so I opened the window and attempted to climb down the vines that were on the side of the mansion. I had a few slips since the mansion was huge and I had a long attempt but I managed to land just fine.

I went into the woods and what I saw made me widen my eyes in complete awe at the pure blue waterfall but my pleasure was cut short when a rough hand grabbed my wrist, it wasn't just any hand. It was Kavin Daniel's hand, the current Beta, I squeaked in fright because I knew that he was the best warrior out there in the pack, what made me think I could just escape without worrying about the guards. I was stupid enough to wander almost freely without thinking. I had to face the wrath of the Alpha now. I shivered, wondering what my punishment could be.

They took me back to that dreadful luxurious room and I cried in despair more because the guards couldn't understand that I had to get out of that empty room or the menacing memories would beat me internally apart.

I attempted a classical punch the door move but that didn't work out either. The sweat began clinging to my body and I had to rinse my body in the bathroom. I couldn't wait for the full moon. I wondered what Alpha Raden wanted to talk to that Alpha about? Any chances of freedom shut down when they placed metal bolts on the windows. I lost their trust.

I ended up taking a power nap till it was time for my shift, I was too exhausted from last night that I slept for six full hours like I was in hibernation. The guards took me to the Alpha Raden standing outside the mansion for my full shift today with others surrounded to watch a pack member turn into a werewolf. I was bashful when their eyes stared at me.

"You will be punished later for your lack of obedience." I sourly nodded at Alpha Raden. The Beta took me by the arm and stood beside me in the middle of the field. I felt surges of painfully hitting my body like swords, I let out an agonized scream as my body began to crack and twist, the pain was unbearable and I was sweaty from the effort to calm my body. My neck snapped and my hands turned to claws.

Everyone gasped after a moment of silence at my wolf. I felt relieved when the pain ended, my wolf introduced herself to me.

Hello, I am Lace, your wolf. She shyly said and I greeted back. Fully content with the way I met my wolf. We had some adjusting to do together but I was sure we would be good friends. It was a normal thing since I didn't have any friends. She was to be my first friend.

A girl squealed. "Woah, her wolf is multi-colored."

Another girl joined her in cheerfulness over the fact that my wolf was different colors. "She even has the black patches around her blue eyes that I dreamed of having." They all whined about how beautiful my wolf was and I bathed in a bliss that my negative thoughts didn't come to reality.

Well, one of them did when I followed my mom's advice before, I imagined me as a human and I shifted back, the Beta wrapped me with a black long sweater that reached above my knees.

A huge growl emitted, making the crowd open-mouthed at the glory of the unknown Alpha. The earthly smell along a hint of caramel evaded my senses as I looked at the dark depths of his breathtaking eyes. He speed walked to me in his grey suit and I widened my eyes as he approached me.

"Mate."
