MIA'S POV
Today's going to be an awful day, cause my body is still hurting from yesterday's beating. I do my normal routine like I do every other day. My life is boring, it will never be exciting. I always dreamed of traveling, but I guess it isn't going to happen. My only wish is to leave this pack and live a peaceful life. I don't wish to find my mate cause I know he would never accept me.
I reach my small kitchen and start to make my breakfast which is porridge. I add in some sugar and milk. afterward, I leave to the packhouse. as soon as I enter the kitchen, Marie, the head omega calls for me.
Hi Marie. I greet her. and she greets me back. Mia, I have something to tell you.
what is it that you want to tell me?.
Mia, you will be working at the alpha's house starting from tomorrow.
My body stiffens, and my heart starts to beat faster. I start to gasp for breath. I think i'm having an anxiety attack.
Mia, what's wrong?. someone bring me a glass of water. Marie shouts. she offers me the water, I drink it in one gulp. I take a seat on a stool near the kitchen counter.
Are you alright now?.
yeah, i'm fine. could you please send someone else over to the alpha's house? i'm afraid of him, I've heard how ruthless he is.
you don't need to be afraid Mia, as long as you give him what he wants but if you refuse him, then he will hurt you.
what will he want from me?.
she comes closer to me and whispers into my ear. if he likes you, he will sleep with you if he doesn't he won't bother you, he will send you away and get another omega to work for him, and if he happens to like you but you refuse to give him what he wants, then he will hurt you.
i'm horrified hearing about this, so he doesn't even leave the omega's out. he's disgusting to be called an alpha. I can't believe this is what has been happening here all this while.
i'm sure he won't like me anyway what's there to like about me, I'm just a sack of bones. I think to myself.
you can take the day off, I already have someone in your place. don't disappoint me, Mia, i'm counting on you, since you will be working for the alpha your pay will be a little better. she adds and takes off.
i'm positive that the alpha wouldn't like me, so there's no reason for me to be scared. I shudder at the thought of him anywhere near me. I head back home, since it's early I take a slow walk and adore the beautiful forest.
when I arrive at my cabin I get into the bed and doze off. I wake up at 8 in the evening. I feel fresh and reenergized after sleeping. it's been a while since I had such a good sleep.
The next morning, I wake up and start to get ready. I leave for the alpha house, it's going to be a long walk. when I arrive there, I'm already short of breath.
I was given a key by Marie to open the door. I try to open the door slowly not making a sound. I close the door behind me and glance at the massive house. It's luxurious and huge. I wonder why he built such an enormous house when he's just living by himself. I first start cleaning the alpha's room, which is on the third floor. I take the mop and start wiping the room. As I'm busy doing that the door bursts open. A tall young man stands at the door, he stares at me for a moment and then takes off.
That was weird. I wonder who that was, most probably it was one of the pack members.
By 6 in the evening, I'm done with my work. I'm now on my way back home. I'm tired and hungry.
As soon as I get to my cabin, I shower and change into something warm and comfortable. I make my way to the kitchen and prepare something for me to eat. I make myself a peanut butter sandwich. I grab a book to read and get underneath the covers. I snuggle up and begin reading my book.
The next morning I wake up and start my day as usual. On my way to the packhouse, I meet with an omega, her name is Amy. She's a little older than me, she has just joined the pack recently.
Hi Mia. The girl greets me. I greet her back with a smile. Did Marie inform you that you won't be working at the alpha's house any longer?.
No, she hasn't said a word to me. I'm a little relieved. Thank the moon goddess I won't have to work there. I say to myself.
I'm going to be taking your place. That's great, I wish you all the luck.
Why would you wish me luck?. Amy inquires.
Haven't you heard what a monster the alpha is?. If I were you I'd be careful.
Alright. Thanks for the heads up. I'll see you later. Amy says as she takes off towards the alpha's house.
I feel bad for her, she has no idea what our alpha is. I hope he doesn't hurt her.
Mia there you are, I've been waiting for you. Marie says with excitement. I wonder why she's so happy. What are you so cheerful about Marie?.
I'll be going away from this pack. The alpha had allowed me to do so. My daughter had just found her mate yesterday, he's a beta from the same pack, that my daughter is in. The alpha had spoken to ours, so they allowed me to leave from here.
Wow, that's great news. I'm happy for you. She's so fortunate to leave from here. I wish I could too.
When will you be leaving?. And who is going to take your place?.
I'm leaving first thing tomorrow morning. I have no idea who will be taking my place. I just hope they will take care of you all, just like I did.
She's right she did take care of us, she isn't s horrible person. Whenever I couldn't make it to work from the beatings that Chloe would inflict on me. Marie would always send me home to rest.
I hope the next person is going to be like you. I'm going to miss having you around. There's something that I wanted to ask you by the way. Why did Amy take my place, working at the alpha's house? Not that I have a problem with it. I just wanted to know if I had maybe done something wrong.
it appears you aren't the alpha's type, so he had asked for someone else. That's why I've sent Amy.
But wouldn't her life be in danger?.
Marie sighs. She pulls me aside and speaks to me in a low voice. Mia, you're still young and naive. If you want to live in this pack and stay alive, you will have to sleep with the alpha and whoever else. That's the only way you are going to survive. Those are also one of the reasons I want to leave this pack. She says in a whisper. To stay alive, you need to please the alpha. He has raped and killed many innocent girls. Try not to be the next one Mia.
I wish you all the best Mia. I have work to do, so if you would excuse me. Yeah, sure and thanks for the advice, I appreciate it, Marie. She leaves to do her work, while I stand and absorb everything she had explained to me.
