*REWRITTEN VERSION OF MY BROKEN LUNA* Charlotte Beck has been abused by the Red Stone pack since the age of eight when she was taken away from her family. With virtually no memory of how she came into the hands of her tormentors or what her life was like before it all turned to hell, she is trapped in a constant cycle of both physical and mental abuse, as well as not knowing when her next meal with be. She believes that there is no one in the world capable of loving someone so worthless as her and that she deserves everything life has thrown her way so far. It's not until her wolf gains the courage to escape that she realizes she has a chance of living a better life; one where she isn't stripped of basic rights or constantly put down. Accidentally stumbling upon Lunar Shadow territory, the most powerful and feared werewolf pack in the world, she encounters Alpha Xander Reynolds. Only able to associate this man with his merciless and violent reputation, Charlotte isn't able to comprehend Xander's gentleness towards her or the hurt in his eyes when he learns that their memories have been beat out of her mind. Xander wants nothing more than to love and protect his mate, but traumatized and high on fear, Charlotte struggles to let down her walls. How could you blame her? She was trained to think she is unworthy of a mate and will never be more than a mere object. Will Xander be able to get his mate to understand that she will always be loved and protected in his arms? Or will she forever remain his broken Luna?

"Stop. Stop, please." I sob as the whip comes down on my back once more. "Shut up yo-" my tormentor's words are cut off by a ferocious growl. I sense another masculine figure in the dark room, but can't make out a word he's shouting. The burning and searing pain that I'm experiencing is just too much. A sickening snap is heard and something drops onto the cold, stone flooring. The chains around my wrists and ankles are broken along with the tight metal collar around my neck. "Mate." my rescuer growls, gently cradling me in his arms. ********************* Charlotte Beck has been tortured and abused by the Red Stone pack ever since she turned eight. She doesn't know why they hate her or how she ended up a lower rank than the Omegas; no one even bothered to label her as a slave. She has never known the true meaning of love or how it felt like, all Charlotte knows is that her pack surely doesn't feel that way about her. Finding a mate was a dream that was thrown out the window long ago; all of the verbal abuse led her to believe that she didn't deserve one. It's not until she attempts to escape again that she realizes that she has a chance of living a better life, one where abuse isn't an everyday thing. Xander Reynolds, Alpha of the Lunar Shadow pack, finds her when she's taken to his cells as a trespassing prisoner. Known as the strongest Alpha in the continent, he does everything he can to protect his mate. The only problem is that she's too emotionally scarred to allow him to. His dark and violent reputation is the only thing that Charlotte knows about him. The memories of their childhood together beaten out of her mind. Traumatized and high on fear, she struggles to let down her walls. Her real home is with a man who she cannot remember and a brother who she wishes she remembered. Can Xander get his mate to love him? Or will Charlotte let her past keep them apart?

He's an alpha. She is nothing. He's loud and outgoing. She's a mute freak. He needs his mate. She wants to be dead. What happens when two opposites cross paths? (i wrote this when i was 14-15 so please just be aware that it moves quickly and it's cliche)
