My Lost Princess

Prologue

3rd person POV

"EMBERRRR!!! Come clean this NOWWWW!!!"

"Yes ma'am" Ember said running quickly to the voice

She scoffs and looks at Ember "CANT YOU DO YOUR JOB FOR ONCE!!"

"Y-Yes ... I I I'm sorry" Ember said fearfully

Rolling her eyes the damander said "yeah you better be, now clean up this mess you twat"

"Yes mother" Ember said bowing her head in submission

"Don't mother me it's Nancy for you" Nancy said with anger

"Yes Nancy" Ember said still bowing

Nancy scoffed, stomping her feet as she walked away

Ember quickly got to work after her foster mother walked off acting like a child with a tantrum, grabbing the broom she began to sweep the broken glass which Nancy her lazy self broke

How rude of me.... I didn't introduce Ember to you. This is Ember Riverdail she is 17 years old almost 18 in 2 weeks she's the daughter to the late Lycan king Evan and Queen Evelyn Riverdail (who was a wolf ), tho she doesn't remember her birth parents ranks but remembers faces pretty well, she was only 7 years old when she was sent to the Crescent moon pack by her parents to protect her from the war. Yes Ember is a Lycan and wolf hybrid but.... a very powerful one at that. She was sent there for a reason. As for the reason you will find out soon enough. Now back to Ember

"I swear she just can't pick up her own shit" Ember said rolling her eyes internally

Sighing she picked up the mess and made it spotless, she then finished her chores and when to go shower.

Walking up the stairs to the attic she quickly turns the knob to the room, as the door squeaks open she hastily walks through the door way in to the small and dark room. Walking into the dark room, Ember swiftly heads to the little lamp at the side of the little light stand that was left there for years to gather dust. The night stand was a beautiful shade of light grey and light pink with silver polkadots, Embers favorite colors.

"If only this wasn't left here to collect dust" she thought to herself

After opening the draw to the night stand Ember quickly gathers her clothes to shower. She never really owned nice cloths like the other kids or any cloths for that matter, her foster parents never really got her any because according to Nancy  Ember is not well "behaved enough" to receive such things, all she technically owned were just hand me downs shirt and shorts from her brother and under garments from her sister since they are the same size. That was the only thing that her foster mother would allow her to have.

The siblings were the only two in the house hold that treated her nicely but only when their mother isn't around. If they were to do anything nice to her while the foster mother was there she would beat her non stop until she learns that she is worth nothing in that house hold.

Now where's Father you may ask, he's currently away on business with the alpha, apparently it was urgent? I'm not sure

"Well time to shower Ember" she said to herself

After gathering her cloths Ember left her room and quickly walked to the bathroom in the basement , since she sleeps in the attic she has to use the bathroom in the basement while everyone is sleeping.

Running to the basement bathroom she quickly and quietly closes the door to the bathroom and places her clothes on the small dirty marble counter and looks at her self in the dirty mirror

"Hang on a little longer Ember" she says to herself encouragingly

"Your almost 18 then you can leave this hell hole"

After looking at herself for 2 minutes she walks to the shower and turns it on. The shower was nothing special, it was just a small and normal shower that all house are equipped with, this bathroom was assigned to her by Nancy because there no hot water running down to this showers what so ever. She did it on purpose

Ember quickly strips and steps in the shower. When her back touches the cold water she flinches and start shivering. As she fully immerses herself in the freezing water she felt the sudden sting coming from her back.
As she looked down she can see the very familiar red stream pooling at the bottom of her feet

"Shit I forgot that was there"

Her back was covered in scars old and new along with fresh open wounds from the whippings she would receive from Nancy for the slightest things that she deemed unacceptable or unsatisfactory

Sighing Ember stayed under the freezing water in her own little world. As she finally comes out of her daze, Ember begins to scrub herself with a ripped cloth and soap. And she's scrubbing she can still see the blood from the fresh open wounds pooling at the bottom but she ignores it and continues to wash herself.

After she was done in the shower she quickly gets dressed and be-lines it to her room, closing the door gently Ember begins to prepare for bed. She bends down and grabs a first aid kit from under her cot that her brother gave to her when he first saw her wounds and begins to wrap her torso with bandages, to keep her wounds from getting infected.

Once she was done she gently places the kit back under the cot and lays down and stares at the old wooden ceiling and begins to imagine how life would be when she get her wolf

"Just two more weeks and I will be free" she said to herself

"Soon I'll be out of this sorry excuse of a pack and finally be free"

She continued to look at the ceiling as images of being free and running while shifted to her wolf and feeling the breeze in her fur Floods her mind,  until finally sleep consumed her.
