Chapter 4: You Are Not Lucky Eldora
She is tall and tan skinned probably from being in the farm for long, he also looked at her hands and saw that they were stiff and big, she did have strong hands and would be a great help in the kitchen with these useless Omegas over there.
Alpha Mesh was really impressed by her looks, after all, it has been a while since he got a collateral as beautiful as this, a shame though her beautiful clothes and pretty face would soon get dirty.
"How old is she and how much more do you want?"
He finally asked after a moment of silence and anxiety broke out in the room.
"Fifteen, and fifty thousand dollars,"
Veronica was also curt and straight to the point.
"But if I give you fifty thousand dollars, it will make 150 thousand dollars with the other loan your husband collected"
Veronica understood that he might be complaining that the loan is too expensive to accommodate her as a collateral.
"She's young and strong, could be fine whichever department you put her in, forget that she is young, I assure you her stamina is good."
Eldora who was hearing them decided it was then the perfect time to make a run for it, she looked around and saw that the room was closed, she would be caught immediately when she tried to open the door.
After all from the aura the man behind the table exuded, it was no doubt he would catch her immediately and may have her body butchered.
She only sank on the nearest chair and decided to think about her life as she listened to the bargain over her life.
She knew things were bad but were they this bad enough, does her father really know, could that be the reason he went away and this time he looked so lost even when he told her goodbye?
Maybe they had planned it before hand, because he couldn't see his baby being given in exchange for the loans he had acquired, he had to send his butch of a wife to do h in s dirty work.
If it had to be done, at least he should have given her away to a prince in a grand style with a ceremony just like in the books she reads from.
It was just a reminder that fairy tales only existed in movies, this was her reality and indeed stepmothers are evil creatures created solely for the purpose of ruining their step children's life.
Thinking about it critically, even if her father would have wanted to do something, he couldn't do anything, the Luna had him whipped up around her arms, he had changed quite a lot after marrying her,
After all, she is just a useless, wolf-less Alpha's daughter, it was the best way to get rid of her and make a profit of it.
When Eldora finally looked up, they seemed to have come into an agreement, and someone came to pick her up. It was then reality hit her and she started crying.
"Mama don't do this to me please, don't sell me, I can not be a collateral for your loan, am sure dad will come up with a way to help the pack"
"Who's your mama, don't mama me, this is for good, you are helping your dad to take care of the pack, isn't that what you always wanted, you furless wolf, I am sure your dad would find the money and collect you back, for now just go with the gentlemen"
There was nothing gentle about the gentlemen who came to carry her; they looked huge and had beards, giving them a thug look.
And they were really strong because one just carried her and brought her to the pack.
The beautiful scenery before her king gone as she thought of all these things l
Pain surged in her heart as she remembered what had happened three years ago, was she really helping the pack by being here, she had obeyed and thought that just maybe her dad would come save her after he finds out what his Luna had done, but she was wrong.
Three years had passed and there was no sign of him or any one from her pack, she had to live as an omega and serve the Shark pack all these years and endure the brutality of the pack.
Looking down at her new omega maid uniform, she subconsciously thought of the other wolves who were upstairs in the pack hall networking and finding their mates.
Tears streamed down her eyes as she wallowed in self pity again wondering why she had not met her Mate yet.
It was the only other choice she could have, find her mate, escape the Shark pack, go back to her pack and return to being the Alpha's daughter again.
"Moon goddess, was that really too hard to ask for?"
She lifted her head towards the sky full of stars and saw the full blood moon.
Today was the day that she was going to be happy, finally she'd be turning eighteen.
And for every werewolves, it is the most expected hour because at that time, one would easily find his or her mate especially if they lived in the same place.
Since she was a slave in the Shark pack, Eldora did not expect that she'd be fated to any one from that place.
She thought that someone from her original park would appear and claim her as his mate.
And then When that happens, she would know her stand.
If he was a strong Alpha wolf, then maybe they could have a chance to boldly walk out of the pack with her.
And if he wasn't an Alpha wolf, they'd quietly escape from the place.
It was not going to be easy, but Elena had everything all planned out, she just needed to find him and that was it.
On a busy day such as this, the very day when the future Alpha of Shark Pack Alpha Adam was destined to find his mate.
A lot of dignitaries from other packs were invited, Everyone wanted to associate with the Shak Pack.
It is one of the strongest packs there is, if only he got a mate from a particular pack, he would easily be allied with that pack and other packs would be scared of them.
She had thought that out of the hundreds of people present, one of them might just claim her right.
The odds were very high, it happened to an omega last year, she turned eighteen and was rescued by her master, she had hoped it might be her fate too.
Looking at her shadow on the lake, she knew that it was close to midnight, it would soon be over, yet again, her hope had been shattered
She had lost the last hope she had, the night was not getting any younger, if she did not find her mate, she would most likely be mate less again, just like she is wolf less.
"You really are not lucky Eldora"
Carried away by her thoughts, lost in her agony and pain, Eldora did not realize that something was off and there was someone behind her until she felt a tap on her back.
