Zayla collapsed heavily on her sides, panting from the effects of an hours worth of running. I morphed back into my human form and lay there for an unknown amount of time. I noticed a mans shirt in the depth of a bush beside me.
Random items of clothing are quite common to find around her as our pack is notorious for going running all the time. I slipped it over my head and pulled it down so it covered me and slowly made my way back to the pack house. After opening the door quietly It was easy enough to notice everyone had begun eating dinner I looked to the right and saw a very small portion of meat and vegetables set aside for me on the marble bench top I had never been a big eater and had always been very lanky. I was just over average height.
Looking over, I saw my favourite person. Rosa. Unfortunately for me she was the alphas daughter and out ranked me as I was the gamma's (third in command) daughter. She noticed I had walked in and strutted over with her followers in tow.
"You done crying over it yet little baby? Did Zayla and you have a little run in the forest? Obviously you didn't go far as you look like death and your weak little self can't handle anything her daddy doesn't do for her" a harsh growl escaped my lips as I gave her a sharp push, causing her to stumble backwards in her thousand and something dollar heels. Rosa had fallen flat on her ass and I was responsible! Ah how great to witness.
All of her followers giggled and only a few helped her up and after straightening her outfit she walked towards me with long purposeful strides.
"I'm sick of you" she snarls and wraps her perfectly manicured hand around my lithe neck.
At this I raked my nails down her hands and began getting ready to call Zayla out but before I could Luna Samantha strolled into the kitchen, a radiance of power in her wake. She was mated to Alpha Jay and was one of the nicest Luna's I know. Not that I know too many, that is. She put her hand on Rosa's shoulder and instantly the bitch released my neck
"Rosa Elizabeth Parker what are you doing to Amber?" Rosa looked back at me and grabbed my hand, wrenching her nails into it which caused a whimper to escape my mouth
"Nothing we were just playing weren't we?" As she said playing she twisted my fingers and I bit my lip to prevent whimpers escaping further.
Samantha looked down onto Rosa and disappointment filled her eyes, you could cut the tension with a knife.
"Really Rosa? Because from the looks of the red marks around Amber's neck, you were choking her and don't think I don't see you digging your nails into her hand. I think it's time you two saw Alpha Jay. Hopefully he can make sense of this..." Rosa stumbled off, nerves obviously reaching the supposed 'heart' she had buried deep within the icebox of which I call her soul.
As Samantha approached me, my heart raced yet it felt like the very strands off time were being pulled apart. Finally she reaches me but looking into her eyes I saw a mothers sympathy. I never met my mother and my father never had been one for close emotions. Samantha gave me a light touch on the cheek and looked towards the direction Rosa had stumbled off in
"Try not to worry about her... she's very afraid of change and anything out of the normal like somebody kind and sweet like you is seen as weak. It's a shame she turned out this way, you girls were so close when you were younger. I'll tell Alpha Jay the story and I'll call you both up when he's ready to deal with you, ok?" I nodded up at her and smiled, mumbling a thank you.
I disappeared up the stairs in the pack house to my bedroom spotting my piano and guitar. I pushed back the cover of the piano and began my song which I had wrote. Nobody knew I wrote songs not even Jensen... I felt guilty for not telling him but the songs contained a lot of my stored emotions. After warming my fingers up I began to sing to the tune of Ed Sheeran's Shape of you
"You grab my heart with way you move, I don't think you realise the magnitude, denied is all I see, I need somebody to save me. The queen has been knocked down, she was met with a- AH" I cut off and fell off of the piano stool as Jensen I took in the sight of Jensen at the door.
"So do we have a little musical genius in the pack?" He smirked at me and my face turned the shade of a beetroot.
"No, I... you! Ugh. How long have you been there for?" He shrugged and held both his hands up in a fan signalling 10 minutes. I looked him up and down, grunted in frustration but then had a genius idea.
"But who will believe you? You have no proof thus eliminating the possibility of this ever happening" he smiled at me and his brows furrowed evilly.
"Tut tut Amber, you really think I would be so stupid as to not get a video of you?" He sang in a light tone mocking my previous singing.
"I'm honestly so close to ripping your head straight off of your body and throwing it straight into a river to float downstream out of sight forever." Jensen giggled. I love it when he giggled like a little kid
"Touchy, touchy. I'm sure Rosa will love this video! Don't you think so as well? I certainly think so!" Before I could protest any further the door was opened by Luca, Jay and Samantha's son. He looked to me nervously as he has always been shy and slightly geeky. Definitely a little bit of cute is thrown in too. He smiled before speaking in the deep voice that sounded out of place in his lanky body.
"Hey um, Alpha Jay can see you now in his office" he waved goodbye before walking back and closing the door and I looked back at Jensen, beginning to answer his questioning gaze
"Rosa was caught with her hands around my neck tonight in the kitch-" Jensen cut me off as he yelled
"Shit it's 10:40 already I was supposed to be down for battle practice at 10:30 I've got to go... fuck" he muttered before he broke into a run. I sighed running my hands through my hair as I turned out of my room to the end of the hallway into Alpha Jay's office. I walked in and Rosa was already seated with a tear streaked face and Alpha had a hard look on his face.
"Amber, it's good that you're here after an... extensive... conversation with Rosa she will be punished," At this Rosa let out an undignified squeak and and dropped her head. Alpha Jay sent her a hardened stare.
"I know what happened wasn't your fault but we can't have you two constantly bickering and part of this you bring onto yourself Amber"
"What?!" I squeal. This is ridiculous.
"Yes, your punishment will be..."
