The thought of Kale having a woman strangely made laughed.
" Alpha Kale doesn't want a mate or rather, he believes his mate isn't coming anytime soon and he's impatient. He wants his offspring now so he did the selective mate ritual and the present Luna was the only one capable of bearing him, children.'
''Selected mate ritual?' I spoke out. She gasped.'
"You talk You talk! And your voice is beautiful! I love it!'.
''Selective mate ritual?' I asked again, a strange churn in my stomach.
''Oh yes, a ritual where an alpha looks for any other female capable of bearing him children besides his mate. It's an insult to the moon goddess but they do it anyway. She's not the Luna yet until she can bear him children. She hasn't even been able to get a single miscarriage. I heard the alpha is planning to reject her soon and that is making her very worried and angry. She is out for any pretty female, both werewolves and humans.'
''That's good for him,'' I murmured. I sniffed, holding my heart as the pain burnt into me.
''Did you save Riley and her children?'
"Who's Riley? The pregnant she-wolf and two sons?'
''You did save them! That was so stupid of you! You got your kind killed!'
''Yeah, I do know that I also know that.'
''And you don't hate them?'
''I don't have the strength to hate them, my people pushed them. The only person I hate however is Kale, for killing my mother.'
''I hate him too, he pinned my sister to a pole but I don't have a choice, it's served or dies.''
''Yeah, serve or die.' I murmured.
'Just follow the rules and you'll be safe.'
''My name is Vanessa by the way, you're the only person who's friendly to me here. Nice to meet someone nice.'
She giggled.
''Nice to meet you too. Our other roommate, Giselle is working. Come on, we're on kitchen duty today. Do you want to eat?'
"No, I don't need food. I don't have an appetite for it. Where do I bathe?'
''As I said, you only bathe when you start smelling like rotten flesh or decade faeces.' I remembered the pond that guy took me to. I would have to find it. I never knew that the rules in the pack would be this strict.
''Is there a river here?'
''Yes, but I don't go there. I am someone's doll so I bathe when he wants me and that is almost every day a week. Should I help you find the river?'
''Yes, please find it for me.' I smiled. She pouted.
''I'll help you get your eyes treated, I promise.'
''Thank you.' I smiled. I changed into my uniform; a black flare dress with a grey hose. The sleeves and neckline were enough to choke me. I whined.
''This is a turtleneck flare dress, just above our knees and the perfect size.''
She helped me wear the dress and the shoes that looked like slippers. My hair was still in braids and tied up with my mother's magic hairband. With the bands, it looked like I had short hair when it was longer.
We went to work, did everything we were told. Most wolves and humans scowled at me, many intentionally hit me but I didn't retaliate. I knew that most of them hates me for what the tribe did to their kind but I never allowed that to pull me down. I met our other roommate, she was much calmer and more composed. She had dark brownish red hair with sapphire eyes and ivory skin.
I was drying up the dishes when someone stomped in.
"Where is she?! Where is she?!' Someone roared. I didn't bother looking.
'' she the one drying the dishes.' I raised my head and turned it around to see who was yelling but immediately I turned, four claws scratched my face, one almost stabbing my other good eye. I jumped back with a scream, my second eye!
I finally got the chance to kill one of your kind!' She snapped And then I was hurled across the kitchen and bashed against something. I felt a slight crack on my spine. I inhaled and kept the scream back.
She should kill me.
''What are you doing Mercy! Kale would kill you!' Someone shouted.
"'Why?'
''Do you think he would let her live if he doesn't have plans for her?
I know kale won't let this useless girl live if he doesn't have other plans. But the fact she's here will only bring more trouble. I can't let that happen. No! I can't.
"Let her be!' The person puffed.
''Get her back to her room and no doctors, is that clear?'
"I think she hurt her spine,' Carina said shakily.
''Are you questioning my order bitch?'
''No ma'am, I was only…'
''Shut up and get out, now!' I focused more on my pain, not wanting to feel so much, as I watched Carina walk away, I urged myself to pass out.
