Corrupted Redemption

I shoot up in bed. My heart racing as sweat covers my body. I look around my dark room and know I won't be going back to sleep. That night, like many others. Haunt me. It has been 6 years and my mother's pale eyes still roam darkly in my mind. I throw my feet over my bed and head to the bathroom. I might as well get my day started.

After a quickly cardio floor work out in my room. A nice hot shower and a change of close. I throw on my sneakers. I can hear the "Alpha" shouting from his office. I refuse to acknowledge the monster as anything else. Shaking my head , I continue out of my room and down the hall towards the library. The Alpha hasn't really spoken to us nor has he acknowledged jara my baby brother in years. He tries to place the blame on him. I guess thinking it would gain sympathy from the pack. He was a fool indeed.

I'm now twelve and I don't go to school. The alpha feels I dont need it as I am needed here and once im of age I will be nothing more then a glorified incubator and other vile things. My only friends are my brothers Sinead and Jara. Ilad who is Sinead's best friend but we're cool. And Ana my bestest friend in the world. Shes the gamma's daughter and shes three years older then me. Where Sinead and Ilad are six years older.

Jara is 6 and although hes still a baby i guess he's my closest confident outside of Ana of course. Ana's father is a good man and Uncle. He's beem more like a father to us then the Alpha ever could be. He is still very loyal to my mother who was best friends with his late mate and Ana's mother. She had died giving birth to Ana so he was very over protective. We were more like sisters then friends.

Gamma Fredo hates the Alpha and his Beta. Even more so now that his " Alpha" has talen a liking to his own daughter at night. It started two years after mother died. He'd have his way with me and then beat me into secrecy. Using ill behaviors as an excuse for my bruises. Lately though hes stopped as I've locked my door or had jara and Ana in bed with me.

We also had my mother's half sister Laila. Shes a wolfless witch and teaches us basic school at homeas well as healing tonics. The Alpha knows not to mess with her. One time she did a spell thay gave him poison oak after he had smacked Jara. It was funny watching him scratch like a lunatic for weeks.

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

I slowly put my pencil down amd sit back in my chair. "I need a snack or three." Injoke to Jara who's chubby little hands are trying to break yet another crayon. I roll my neck and sigh. "How's about we go get something to eat." I place my hand on his and make him look at me. He nods excitedly and put the crayon down. I help him out of the chair and we leave the library. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

He doesn't really speak in open spaces or to anyone but our close circle. I think he's afraid he'll get in trouble if the Alpha even so much as hears him. The Alpha gets drunk and spews lies to him. That he lilled mother but we make sure he knows thats not true amd that the "Alpha" is the true monster. That ourother loved him very much and she gave him his string name while in her belly.

We make it to the kitchen and I help Jara onto a seat in front of the Island and begin gathering the makings of sandwiches. As I finsh i slide one to Jara and take the seat next to him and take a bite. "Mmmm, now this is better then homework anyday." I lick the mustard from my fingers. As I take another bite, the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Loud footsteps grow closer to the kitchen.

I painfully swallow and place a claming hand on Jara's arm. Alothough i can't yet shift my Wolf lilly has been with me since that night and we know that smell all to well. Sour lemons and pine needles...yuck.

The sound of steel toed boots stop behind us. My stomach curls as rough fingers brush the nape of my neck. I grimace and lightly grip my beother arm. "Hello pet, aren't you happy to see me." Harris the Beta sickly whispers out. Causing vomit to rest just inside my throat.

I lean my body away from hishand and turn to glare at him. " Actually i became physically ill, as I do anytime you're around." I grind out through clenched teeth. His brown eyes flash gold. "Easy... pet. We both know how easily I could make you eat those words." His eyes flashed to Jara and a growl escapes my lips. "One day Harris, Sinead is going to rip your head from your shoulders." I huff out.

He begins to laugh. Seriously laugh. Throwing his head back in amusement. "If he doesn't, I will." I growl. He stops laughing and gulpes. Fear flashes in his eyes before he quickly corrects himself. " We'll see about that....pet." He turns and storms out of the kitchen.
