The Hidden Gem

Invisible Gems

Invisible, it is such strange word. According to the dictionary it means to not be visible. Simple, right? It shouldn't be a difficult concept, if something is visible then obviously it can't be invisible. Only if someone would explain that to my mother. She has always pushed the fact that I need to stay invisible. That the pack members can't know I even excite, which is difficult. Of course I'm going to be visible, I'm a person!

I'm sorry, I got a little off track with my ranting. I seem to do that when I get someone to listen to me. So let me start in the beginning, that's usually a good place to start. My name is Ashlynn Black. I don't really have a last name because I don't know my father's and my mother wouldn't dare to give me hers, so at school I just use Black. My brief story is that, my father got my mother pregnant with me, before either of them found their mates. Once my father found his mate, he left not knowing my mother was pregnant. Sense I was born, I've been kept a secret, because my mother didn't want to deal with being shun for having a child not of her own mates. I know great mother! (Please note the sarcasm.) The only ones that know of my existence is My mother, two half sisters, half brother and Stepfather.

I'm not allowed to leave the house, ever. When I do leave, it's because John, my stepfather, sneaks me out. I do go to school, so I guess technically I'm allowed to leave the house, but only allowed to go and come directly home. Oh, and I have to make sure no one sees me walk into the Beta's house. My stepfather, John, is the Alpha's beta which just complicates things more. You, try and hide from a man that is always at your house and has extra sensitive senses, it's nearly impossible.

With my striked rules I only have one friend, and I really shouldn't even be friends with him. He thinks I'm human because of the way I hide my scent. My half sisters Maryann and Lynne aren't too bad. They are both 3 and 4 years younger then me. They don't really talk to me, unless it's to ask if I seen their clothes when I was doing the laundry. I'm not forced to do chorus, but when your not allowed to leave, they are something to occupy time. My half brother, Tanner is a whole other story. He is only a year younger then me and we are actually pretty close. He has to distant himself at school, but at home we spend hours hanging out.

John, is great. He hates my mothers rules, and tries to fight them as much as he can. The only one that really is the problem is the one that gave birth to me. She won't look at me, talk to me, or even acknowledge that I exist.

So that's the back ground, about my invisible life. Now let me begin the story how suddenly I became visible.
