The Past
My life had always been a mess. A girl like me, just so happened to have a complicated past which I wouldn't want to think of again. I had enough of the haunting past.
It was always terrifying when flashbacks of the man whom I called 'step-dad' was a psychotic who preys on a forty year old woman before targeting her young daughter.
I was just a pure-minded young teen who came back from high school one day to find out that my mom had remarried after getting over my biological dad's deliberate death - he was said to have done bad deeds towards the pack and was punished.
Ironic isn't it? Which fathers would do that when they have a child to take care?
My life turned even more hilarious when I was demoted to a lowly Omega just because of my dad. The statement declared by the Alpha after his death made me grimace in terror.
Yet somehow, my mom and I managed to survive being lowly Omegas in the pack, working in the kitchen all day long. As for me, I was still not at the eligible age to work so I was required to continue high school.
Many years passed, that was until on my last year in high school when my mom broke the news that she was remarried to a third-in-command whom I called him 'step-dad'. He was kind and loving at first in the first few phases. He practically doted on me like his child; patting my head, caressing my cheeks.
Until, he somehow took noticed of me and decided to target me. He began to drift apart from my mom who turned lonely once more, but paid more attention on me.
When mom was away settling issues from the florist shop which he had gifted my mom on their first year anniversary, he would take the opportunity to "dote" on me. He would sit beside me on the couch while I was watching a romance movie and I would feel his hand rubbing up and down my thighs, sending shivers down my spine.
I shifted uncomfortably, making him retract his hands. It was only temporary before I would feel another shiver down my spine when his hand rubbed circles on my back, slowly moving to my ass.
That was always my cue to return to my bedroom before he did anything further than that.
Many times, I tried to tell my mom what he did to me but she would never believe a word. She thought that my rebellious side was taking over me, making me oppose to everything, everyone.
When in fact, it was not true. He was really a psychotic.
Until one particular day, I found him in my room after my lessons had ended in high school. His hands roamed around my body, making me feel very uncomfortable. That day turned out to be the day when he took my virginity by force.
But that day was also the day when my mom finally believed me after seeing me in such a terrible state. However, I had already lost trust in the ones who I had once loved. I gradually built walls around me, blocking everyone from entering my life.
I cut my hair short to start afresh, gradually pushing myself to the rebellious side until Elena stepped into my life. She pulled me out of the mess I had created, bringing me back to the right path.
However, I still smoke whenever I was stressed out. Yet, I still paid attention to lessons so as not to disappoint Elena. I always lingered around the Omegas, but I seldom exchanged words with them.
I guess my only friend was the one and only Elena.
She was there through my hard times, always believing me even when I got into troubles for fighting with some guys who despised me because I have no dad. Of course, I would get mad and would start hurling insults back at them, fighting with them; weak humans.
Finally, I was promoted to my sophomore year in college. Everything looked good for now. Except, I had found a mate. Someone who was destined to be my partner for like an eternity. It was said that the moon goddess had chosen a pair as mates even before they were born.
My fate was already marked even before I was born into this world. Who was I to say no to a guy who happens to be my mate? But I had a choice, isn't it?
I could either reject or accept him. Now, it became a question which stuck in my head for so long after we first met. He was built and had fine abs hidden under a flimsy material. His grown stubbles seemed to be newly grown which meant that he shaved his stubbles regularly.
His hair was swept to the back with a typical hair gel a male would use, making me want to tug my hands onto his hair when we made-out. But, that was out of the question for now.
However being me, I acted like nothing has happened. I side-stepped to the side before returning to my locker, my heart thumping louder than usual. Something wasn't right and I knew my inner wolf, Ace was whimpering for her mate.
I would usually snap at her if she bothered me too much. However this time, I just let her ranted her frustrations on me. I deserved it anyways.
"He is your mate. He deserves to know everything you have been through." My head spun at the words which Ace had said. Those exact, same words escaped from Elena's mouth, making me growl warningly as a signal to tell her to shut up instantly.
However, that did not stop her from talking since she wasn't afraid of me. She knew that I would never hurt her when I was in rage. She just continued blabbering words about mates, bringing back the moon goddess legend.
Instinctively, I zoned out, my eyes darting around the campus café in boredom. When my eyes met his, I immediately looked away after our eyes locked momentarily.
Since the college only have one standard break time slot, we were bound to meet in the campus no matter how many acres of land this college owned.
Deciding to take a break from Elena's blabbering, I silently slipped out of the café and headed towards the campus central. I sat down on the steps by the podium, my head tilting upwards as I stared at the pale blue sky.
If only everything had been a dream just like those luscious white, puffy clouds floating on the sky.
But, someone had to spoil my thoughts. My ears picked up to the sound of a pair of boots deliberately dragging towards my direction. I glanced over my shoulders instantly before a slight frown was formed.
