Carissa's POV:

All I could do was slowly roll over and turn my alarm off. It was four in the morning and this was my que to get up and to start breakfast for my pack. I did not have a bed or even a mattress. I have two blankets, one that was on the concrete floor and the other to cover me and help shield me from the cold. I made my way to the bathroom and when I looked at myself in the mirror, it was like looking at someone that was dead or dying. My normally brown hair looked disheveled and not the hair of someone that is almost nineteen. I pulled my top off and I was just skin and bones. I never really got to eat because that was one way my pack tortures me. My skin is gray and covered in bruises. My eyes were sunken in and I had bags under my eyes. I really looked older than I actually am.
I pulled my hair up, put on some sweats and a sweatshirt and did my morning routine and headed down stairs to the kitchen. I was almost done with breakfast when my Alpha came in. Usually I am the only one ever in the kitchen. I stopped what I was doing and bowed to show him respect.
"Good morning Alpha."
"Carissa, we are having the Beta of the Midnight Black Pack and the Alpha's sister here tonight for dinner, so I need you to not worry about the lunch and dinner for the pack and only clean down here in the formal dining room and living room. We need to make a good show of things. They are the strongest pack in the world and we could use them as allies. Please put some makeup on for tonight so they do not see your bruises and dress nicer. Is this clear?"
"Yes Alpha."
It was hard to say no to my Alpha, even though he was my main tormentor. He was very good looking, and he knew it. He always had like a five o'clock shadow, that gave him a rugged sexy look. He has dirty blonde hair that is curly on the ends, and the bluest eyes. I will admit that I have always had a crush on him, but that crush ended after he started to beat me. Beta Charles was also pretty good looking as well, with dark brown hair and blue eyes. I guess that all wolves are good looking and gorgeous in a sense. They are both tall and well built thanks to their wolves. The she-wolves just threw themselves at them, neither of them have found their true mate yet, so they are hoping that they will be chosen as their mates.
I did as I was told and after breakfast was all done and served, I cleaned the dishes and began making a list of what to cook for dinner. This has never happened to me before. We have had top pack members from other packs for dinner before and I was still having to complete all my jobs on top of the dinner. I wonder what is so special about these two? I guess having them as allies is a huge deal for us.
I had decided on Rib-Eye steaks and all the fixings. While most of the stuff was cooking, I did as I was told and wore the only dress that I owned. You could tell that it was old and worn a lot. I curled my hair and put on make-up to cover whatever bruises were still visible. I looked in the mirror and thought I actually did not look too bad.
I made my way down to the kitchen to finish dinner. I made sure that the dining room was set and made my way into the kitchen. Everything smelt so good, it made my mouth water. I had just finished plating the salads when I heard my Alpha welcoming our guests. I had already filled the glasses and placed the rolls on the table, so I knew to wait five minutes before taking the salads out.
After five minutes I made my way out with a tray of four salads for my Alpha and Beta and the Beta and Alpha female of the Midnight Black Pack. I walked in and bowed my head to show my respect, and made sure I did not make any sort of eye contact with our guests. I first served my Alpha, then Beta, then the other Beta and the Alpha female. I made my way back into the kitchen to prepare the main dish, since it was all done. I waited for my Alpha to mindlink me telling me that I could bring out the main course.
"We are ready for the next course Carissa."
I knew that was my que, so I took them out and was pleased to see a smile pass the faces of my Alpha and the others. I knew then that I had cooked the right thing and they were pleased. I headed back to the kitchen to put the finishing touches on the cheesecake I made for their dessert.
When I walked back into the kitchen I was no longer alone. Standing in front of me was the Gamma of my pack. He was the one that I feared the most. He was tall with thick dark blonde hair with blue eyes and a five o'clock shadow. He usually gave me the worst beatings out of everyone. "Why the hell was my room and laundry not cleaned and done?"
Crap! I kept my head bowed. "I was told by the Alpha to just concentrate on the dinner tonight."
"If that was true we would have been told that. You are just lying because you are lazy and didn't want to do your job."
"I am not lying."
That is when he punched me so hard that I fell onto the ground. I could taste blood and I knew that my lip had split. I didn't expect him to start to kick me while I was on the ground. I could feel my already healing rib bones break or new ones breaking and I did my best not to make a sound, because that would only cause them to do me more harm.
"This is your own fault omega." He knelt down next to me and had a knife in his hand. "Just remember to never lie to me again."
"Please don't."
He dragged the knife from my ankle to the middle of my thigh and I bit back a scream so those that were in the dining room would not hear what was happening in the kitchen. Once he was done he threw the knife in the sink, spit on me and then finally left me. I slowly got up and began to clean the blood off, so I could finish my job and try not to have any of them notice what had just happened.
"We are ready for dessert Carissa."
Shit! I did the best I could and went to clear the dishes of the main course to make room for the dessert. I made sure to use my hair as a curtain so our guests wouldn't see my face. I could feel the blood dripping down my leg. Shit. When I entered, I saw the Alpha sniff and look at me and his eyes widened. I knew then that I was in trouble. I walked the dirty dishes into the kitchen and knew that my Alpha was following me.
"What the fuck happened Carissa?"
"Gamma Levi was upset that I did not clean his room and do his laundry. I guess you forgot to tell them that I was not going to be doing that today." Fuck, Carissa think before you speak.
I watched as Alpha Jaxon took a deep breath and exhaled. "We will discuss your punishment after dinner and our guests have left."
All I could do was nod. I followed him out with the dessert and made my way back to the kitchen. I had a feeling that this punishment I was going to be getting was going to be a bad one. I just had no idea it was going to be the one that finally broke me.
I heard my Alpha talking to our guests. They were asking what had happened to me and of course he lied and told them that I was just clumsy and accidentally cut myself. Our guests actually seemed worried about me.
I was sitting in the kitchen cleaning my leg when I heard my Alpha saying goodbye to our guests. That is when my stomach dropped, because I knew what was to come. I stood up because I heard him coming into the kitchen.
"Clean this shit up and clean the dining room. When you are done, meet me in the room."
"Yes Alpha."
'The room.' That is what he calls my torture chamber. I wanted to hurry up and get everything done, because the longer I make him wait, the worse the beating will be.
After I had completed the dishes and cleaned up the dining room, I made my way to 'The Room.'
When I had arrived, my Alpha and Beta were already there waiting for me. "Carissa, go to the wall and Charles chain her up."
I did as I was told and headed to the wall, I turned so my back was to them and my Beta took my wrists and ankles and chained me to the wall. I knew what was coming, but I had a feeling that this whipping was going to be different.
"You know the drill Carissa, not one word out of your mouth. I also have a new surprise for you that I think that you will like."
The next thing I knew I was being whipped with something different than normal. It split my dress in half and sliced my skin from my neck to the bottom of my back. I could feel a different type of burn and I couldn't help but scream out.
"For your screaming I will give you a few more lashes. How do you like my new silver studded whip that I dipped in wolfsbane?"
Silver and wolfsbane? This guy is going to kill me. He continued until I could feel that my back was shredded and I could feel the blood dripping down my legs. If it was not for the chains holding me up, I would be in a ball on the floor. I was proud of myself for not blacking out, but I sure was close.
"Alpha, I think she has had enough. You're going to kill her if you continue." Thank god for Beta Charles. He never inflicted the pain, he was just always there watching. I guess he was there to make sure that Jaxon did not kill me.
"Take her down."
All I could do was whimper as Charles took me down. He picked me up in his arms and I couldn't help but scream out in pain, due to the fact that my back was shredded. I was holding onto what was left of my dress and Charles carried me down to my hell hole. He laid me down on my stomach on my blanket and the pain was so bad I was seeing black spots and I was just hoping and praying that I would pass out from the pain.
"I am not done with her yet Charles, you can go upstairs now."
"Alpha."
"And close the door on your way out."
What else could he possibly do to me? I just laid there on my stomach and let the tears fall. "Now, since you fucked up my dinner with the Beta and Alpha Female of the Midnight Black Pack the whipping just doesn't cut it. I am going to take away the one thing that you value the most."
He grabbed onto my bottom and ripped my underwear off. No, no this can't be happening. I am a virgin and I am saving myself for my mate. I started to wiggle as I heard him undoing his belt and his zipper. "Alpha please, please don't do this please."
"Shut the fuck up." He grabbed my neck to cut off my crying and slammed my head into the concrete while he forcibly entered me. I couldn't help but cry out as much as I could with his hand around my throat. He was being so rough and was hitting my already shredded back.
"God, I have wanted to do this for awhile now. You feel so good and tight. I will be the only one that ever gets to touch you like this, because if you are what they say you are, you will be my chosen mate."
What the fuck was he talking about? Me being something different? He was being so rough I put that in the back of my mind. I was in too much pain to try and fight. I could not believe that he would stoop this low. After what felt like eternity, but I knew it was only a few minutes, I heard him make some weird grunting noise and he stopped and pulled out of me.
I just laid there and listened to him do his pants back up. "Now, no one will want you, even your mate. That is why you are mine and only mine."
He was right, my mate would never want me after this. I just laid there and cried until I literally could not cry anymore. I couldn't be here anymore. I will not die here. I was to weak to kill myself, but I knew the Midnight Black Pack killed anyone that crossed into their territory. That is when I pulled myself up and was able to put some underwear on, ignoring the blood in between my legs. I wrapped my blanket around me and put my flip flops on and slowly and silently made my way up the stairs. It was dark so I knew that most of the pack members were in their rooms.
I saw a long coat that belonged to a female pack member, so I dropped my blanket and put the coat on and pulled the hood up. I opened the door to the outside and saw that it was cold and snowing. At this point I didn't care and made my way outside. Even though I was in so much pain, I ran as fast as I could towards the Midnight Black's border.
I knew I had crossed the border when I felt as though someone had punched me in the gut, it was the feeling of cutting ties with my pack. I was in so much pain and I knew I had lost a lot of blood from my back. I sank down into the snow and leaned up against a tree to wait out my fate.
I could hear something coming. I saw two wolves approaching me and I knew my death was coming. What I didn't expect was for them to phase back to their human sides.
"Marshall it's the girl who served us dinner at the Red Moon Pack."
"Kim, I smell a lot of blood."
The girl leaned down to look me in the face, and I'm pretty sure I saw sympathy. "What did they do to you?"
I saw her look down at the blood between my legs, and then to the snow and I saw her eyes go wide when she saw all the blood in the snow.
I looked up at both of them with pleading eyes. "Please just kill me." With that said I blacked out from the pain and the blood loss. At least my death will be painless and I will finally find peace.
