The Greywood Alpha's Mate

Chapter 1 - Everyone has their Breaking Point - The Beginning

I was walking down the stairs when I faintly heard my father speaking, "...I said take your shirt off you little whore." Then I heard the distinctive wisp of a belt whipping through the air before it made contact with skin. Then there was the soft tearing of skin that signaled the telltale sign of someone getting beaten.

If you're wondering why I can hear things that humans can't, well that is because I am a werewolf. My family has been through something that was and still is hard on us. We'll all except for our father, he just seemed to get worse and find new ways to grieve. He takes out his anger and pain on one of my little sisters; I always try to get there before he gets another hit on them to protect them. Ever since mom..... Never mind it doesn't matter. All that matters now is getting to one of my sisters.

I didn't even have to think. I reached towards the hem of my shirt and ripped it off my body. Once that was done I walked into the library and noticed my father holding his belt up above his head ready to bring it down on her perfectly pink skin. There was already a deep red mark across my sisters back. I knew who it was by her smell. She was summer and burning wood mixed together. It was Angie.

Unlike me who has honeyed brown curly hair. My siblings all have our mothers blond hair and our fathers board straight hair. I got our fathers honeyed brown hair, but our mothers curly hair. All five of us have our mothers sparkling green eyes, none of us have our father's dull blue eyes. My brothers were built like our father, and they are some of the best fighters in the pack like our father. Our father is Fourth in command under the Alpha, and my brothers are practically fighting to take that position away from him. But he never would let that happen in his life time.

I flung my body at he's and took the next thirty lashes across my back. I would never let her get hurt for nothing. "Leighton so it seems like you will be taking her place then. I'll be back soon, so stay here." He turned and left the room. Forty-five seconds later I heard the front door slam shut soon followed by the car starting.

I then turned my baby sister around, she was only twelve, two years younger than me and she had tears streaming down her face. "Shhhh..... Baby girl it's okay nothing else is going to happen. Go to Chantel's and stay the night there. Go now before he comes back." She didn't need me to specify any further. Because she was up, packed, and out of the house before I could even think to say goodbye.

I knew where to go. I was supposed to meet up with Justin later but I'll just have to meet him now. Because I don't think that I'll be able to leave my house for a while.

I then got up and walked out of the room grabbing my shirt that I threw off in a hurry and put it back on so that it would cover up the new marks that were bleeding profusely. They are going to leave scars and I can't do anything about it. I balled my fists. Everyone in the pack knew about my father beating me and my sisters, but all they do it go along with it and my father is pleased when I come home with new bruises from school. My only salvation is my boyfriend, which no one knows I have, he is the Alphas son and he believes that I am his Mate, but we both know that I'm not, but when we are at school he is the ring leader in who bullies me. I hate going to school, but I love when I get to spend time with him. He is so sweet and nice when I am around that he can make anything better.

When I got out of the house I walked through the woods and headed towards the Pack house. When I got there I headed up to his bedroom and heard muffled moans coming from the other side of the door. "Ohhhhh.........Justinnnnnn...............Moreeee..........."

"Baby I am, I am. You are my Mate so I will do everything that you want."

"Justin...*pant*.....I....don't....want.....you.....near......her.....anywhere....you are mine and I am yours. So call her and tell her that you are finally going to break up with her, do it now. I won't let you finish if you don't." I walked away from the door and down the hall. I was just at the top of the stairs when my phone began to vibrate. I pulled it out and I knew who it was but I still had to see if I was wrong.
