Michael

Chapter 2

It was another day of torture. Going to school ofcourse. Not because Michael was bad at academics thus hated it but he was terrified of his bullies.

As usual he tiptoed to the entrance of the mansion ready to take a run out of the gigantic gates.

He was about to touch the handle of the door when something hard hit the back of his head. Ouch.... Rubbing his head he turned around to come face to face with Matthew his elder brother who was laying on the couch, munching on an apple. Unlike him Matthew was dressed in fashionable clothes with an expensive watch on his wrist. Must be good to have it....

Unknowingly his face fell and a wave of sadness washed over him. It was a gift Matthew got on his 18th birthday from his parents and more than an electronic piece it was a token of love from them.

" What are you thinking you weak brainless turtle? Oh... You wanna steal this? Huh? Are you sad?...aaww."

He asked pointing his watch. a smirk playing on his lips.

"Tch....tch...tch.... I know you want this but I'm not gonna sell it .... Not for an omega like you. "

" Leave him alone Mat... "

Said Matilda, Matthew's twin sister in a fake scolding tone, leaning against the wall.

"Atleast for now I mean... He has people waiting for him in school...it's no fun to do this alone here. It's better to do better with company right??"

She continued while moving to sit beside him on the couch.

" Yeah....so shoo ...shoo. run faster okay?! See you there. Bye"

With tears burning in his eyes Michael ran out of the place he once called home, their laughter ringing in his ears.

Unlike them he had to walk all the way there.

" You know we have talked about it don't you?"

He flinched when he heard Benjamin furiously growled in his head.

" Yeah I know Benji.... At this rate this is nothing...but still ...still....I don't know"

" Oh...come on Mikey you and I both know, nothing about them are gonna change ... never..... I don't think Sophia and Aron (their wolves) as my siblings. We have nothing to do with them. I'm fed up you know... When will you realise Mikey? When will you stop expecting for something that we both know is impossible!!"

" I know....okay?? I know I'm expecting them to acknowledge me..... To love me.... To treat me as atleast an acquaintance. I have always been. Wishing, Maybe you know...maybe moon goddess will make my wish come true"

"It won't happen and you are gonna be heartbroken again. Let's just wait for our mate.... We are turning 18 in a few months ... So we will get to meet them. "

" I hope too. But will they accept us?? You know my own family abandoned me so why would they love us?"

" Don't think like that ....it's entirely different situations ok??... Mates doesn't care about ranks. It's a bond of souls... A connection with body and mind.... ... Don't worry about it now. Let's think how to escape from those brats. My healing capacity is weak . Please don't die."

" You ..... I won't die ...atleast they will spare my life... Don't distract me I don't wanna be late and get beaten up for that."

With that he ran all the way to the school.

************************************

It was lunch time and as usual he was hiding behind a shelf in library where he knew they won't enter.

Just like they promised they trapped him the moment he entered the school. Luckily the torture ended and he had a black eye and a split on bottom lip and a few bruises on his thighs and lower abdomen.

Hissing due to the pain he slid down the shelf.

" How the monsters are our siblings Mikey. I feel so bad for their future mates. "

"No Benji...they are mean only towards me. They do treat their friends and loved ones so dearly and are so sincere towards them. . Mom and dad loves them too for they are their perfect children. Sometimes I do feel jealous. You see that watch he wore today? He was so happy when dad gave that to him. "

" Yeah I know that good for nothing day clean and clear. "

" Benji..."

" Don't Benji me for I was the one who had to stay up goddess know for how many hours to console a weeping you"

" I'm sorry.."

" Don't.... I know how you felt and it was hard. "

Yes it was one of the worst days of his life . His siblings' 18th birthday. Even though he had to help cleaning the mansion before the guests arrived, he was happy that his siblings were turning 18 that day. And they had arranged for one of the biggest parties the pack had ever had. . He was excited for the party too. But it crashed down when he was ordered to go back to his room by none other than his mother who told on his face that they didn't wanted to have a weak male omega on this special celebration.

But he was so excited and curious about the celebration in the hall that he silently went there and stood behind a pillar.

Oh how he wanted to undo his decision for he felt his heart breaking in to millions of tiny tiny pieces. There they stood in the spotlight beautifully dressed, a happy smile adorned their lips. Their parents had the proud glint in their eyes that he knew willl never be directed towards him. He was jealous, frustrated and knew he would not be able to handle it if he stayed there anymore. Tears streaming down his delicate cheeks he ran back to his room.

But what completed his breakdown was the sight of the two bracelets he bought for them in the dust bin . He spent his 2 months salary to buy those and while cleaning their rooms he put those on their nightstands. But seeing his hardwork and love thrown in to the waste ...... That night he cried his heart out.

But did they care..???

A light tap on his shoulder startled him. He had fallen asleep thinking about that day and the sudden unfamiliar touch had him jumped from his half laying position in fright. Looking around disoriented for a second his amber orbs caught a pair of green ones intently staring at him.

Sensing his discomfort the person got up from his crouching position and Michael's eyes widened in fear for he didn't expect the person here at all.

He felt dread creeping up his spine . He was not safe here anymore. Looking around Michael desperately searched for a way of escape. But he was trapped in the second floor of the library in between a wall 2 shelves and him.

Sighing in defeat he pulled his knees in to his chest making himself tiny as possible. Eyes tightly shut sat there ready to accept his fate.
