Loved and Abused

Chapter 3

Sasha's POV

unedited

---------------------------------

I left the school thinking of tonight. Am I ready to be Alpha? I don't know. As I walked through the woods I was tackled to the ground playfully I looked up to see Erin rolling on the forest floor laughing his butt of. "That was so not cool Erin!" Erin is next in line for the beta position. Our dads were best friends and were the two highest ranking members of our pack. We grew up together, basically. By now he had stopped laughing enough to know that I was about to pounce on him. I leaped and met my target head on. He fell to the ground with a shriek. "I can't believe you're going to be Alpha in a couple hours. I mean, come on! Why can't I step up as Beta too? It's not fair." Erin was a little taller than me with strawberry blonde hair, opposed to my dirty blonde hair. We both had fit bodies and are really smart. "Well, your dad is still alive, mine's not. How's that for fair? You know the rules I take position first so the more experienced leaders can pass on their knowledge to me. Then you take the position when you turn 18." I just won't get my dad's knowledge him being dead and all. I mean, I won't know until i do the stuff, won't know what to do from previous experience and I won't be told how to do certain things until I do them for myself. "I know the rules Sasha, that doesn't mean I have to like them. I'm sorry about your dad by the way." I hate it when I get pity from people, but I can't blame him. I mean he lost a pack member, but worse it was her Alpha. "It's okay. I can't do anything about it now. It already happened." By now we are almost to the pack house and Erin had to go home. And I was left alone with my thoughts. I'm pretty sure I'm going to be the youngest Alpha in America! I'm only 16! I was pulled out of my thoughts when I felt a tug on my arm. "Excuse me, Alpha. Can you help me find my mommy?" A little girl, no older than 5 asked. "Of course, who's your mommy?" I asked bending down to pick her up. "I don't know her name, but she has black hair and is really pretty." Well that'll have to work. I pulled her in closer and took a deep breath. Peppermint and chocolate. That should be easy to smell out. I followed my nose to the Primary and saw a woman running around frantically and screaming a girls name. "Serenity! Where are you!" She yelled. Apparently the little girls name is Serenity, because she called out to the woman saying, "I am right here mommy! Calm down!" Wow! That little girl has sass! I couldn't talk like that to my mother without getting beat! Literally! The woman ran over and said "Oh! My baby! Where have you been?! Don't you ever run off like that again! You hear me?!" Serenity giggled. I put her down as the woman ran towards me. "Thank you Alpha." She whispered in her daughter's shoulder. I wish I had a mom that cared about me like that. "You're welcome. And please, call me Sasha. Alpha is to formal." "Okay, Sasha." I left the Primary and headed back toward the pack house. When I arrived I was greeted by sad eyes, got a lot of hugs, and I'm sorry's from my pack members. I walked up to one specific pack member, she was an elderly lady with graying hair and wrinkles on her face. I walked up to her and gave her a hug. She had been crying from losing an Alpha and her son. "Shh. It's okay grandma. I'm here." She continued to cry into my shoulder as I held her. She was a very strong women, and hardly ever cried. Yet, she could be so fragile at times. Whenever she did cry she didn't let anyone know about it, not even her mate, Jacobbe. It hurt me to see her hurting, especially knowing I can't fix it. "W-wwhy u-us?" she gasped. "I wish  I knew. I wish I knew.... Come on lets get you cleaned up." I said. I lead her to the bathroom on the fifth floor, the Alpha's floor. I sat her on the toilet and got out some make-up remover, and put some on a cotton ball. I walked over to her frail body, lifted her chin and started to remove her make-up. I smoothed her hair out and left the room to get her a night gown. I grabbed her favorite, a purple silk night gown. As I entered the room, I noticed that Jacobbe had come in. By now she had stopped crying and was holding her mates hand trying to calm herself down. I walked up to them and gave Jacobbe her gown and undergarments. I was leaving the room when she said "Jacobbe, my baby, he's.. he's, he's gone!"  She began to wail. I left the room after a couple more minutes. I began to think, just a few more hours until I am the Alpha of the Blue Moon Pack. This job holds a lot of responsibility, and will require much of my time. I am going to have serious issues juggling both school and pack work.

ONE HOUR LATER

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

I was currently sitting in a chair towards the back of the podium, wearing a light blue, floor length dress. The dress is the color of the blue moon, like our pack.The Beta, William, was introducing me as the new Alpha. "As you all know, our previous Alpha was stolen from us. But.. we have an heir, for he did not leave us without insuring the Reed bloodline. He left us knowing he had someone who will take care of the pack. And that someone is none other than Sasha Reed. She will take over his position, although early, before she could go to the School of Alpha's, I will personally train her to be her best. And the new Alpha to the Blue Moon Pack... Sasha Reed." The crowd started to roar. They have accepted their new Alpha. I am now the Alpha of the Blue Moon Pack.
