LOGIN"Ah, darling there you are." The Alpha said as he put his arm out for Claire. "Sorry, it took so long, I was hoping to salvage my dress from the spill." Way to come up with a lie real fast Claire. I slightly rolled my eyes and resumed my position at the food table. Many of the servants were whispering to each other as the Royal Family danced along with Callan and Claire once again.
"They look so beautiful when they dance."
"Those two were made for each other."
"The King and Queen are the most wonderful dancers."
"Do you really believe Claire is his mate."
"Of course, don't you see how they look at each other."
And it was true. Callan looked at Claire as if she were the most beautiful woman in the room and Claire was living for it. I could feel my heart slightly break.
'What is wrong with me? What is this feeling,' I thought to myself. I had to step away from the party as I recused myself from my station. I decided I was not going back to the party tonight and decided to head towards a secret spot of mine behind the servants' quarters. Why does the sound of splashing water have such a calming effect? There is this little waterfall that leads into a lake the goes on for miles. It is a gorgeous place to see and you are lucky enough to find it. I found it when I was told to find one of Connor's footballs. I have been coming here ever since when 'that' family has just gotten too much for me. It was nighttime and being away from all the lights you could see all the stars in the night sky. I climbed up into one of the trees that seemed to have a big enough branch for me to sit. I would sit here for hours upon hours just feeling the wind, the spray of the mist as the water hit the rocks. I soon fell asleep.
*Meanwhile back at the party*
"Your Highness, the way you and my daughter dance is spectacular," The Luna said as she stepped towards them. "Please, I don't mean to be forward when I say this, but it would be an honor if His Highness would come around more often," She continued to say as The Royals stepped over to their conversation. For a moment you could see the disgust on Callan's face but then he remembered and put on his poker face. "It would be my honor to visit as often as I can," Callan said as he looked at his parents. "Yes, we have had a splendid time here so far so we all shall visit as often," The Queen said, and The Luna's face started to show her worry slightly. "What a great idea," The Alpha said as he stuck his hand out for The King to shake.
The night went on for another couple of hours until everyone decided to go off to bed. I still laid there asleep within my tree. I felt uneasy, I felt as if I were being watched again. I woke up and got down from the branch to see four glowing purple eyes at me from far in the woods. We starred at each other for hours. Their eyes felt familiar. They were not staring at me with anger or disgust but with sadness. I tried to step closer, but then they ran. I felt as if I were dreaming, but it felt all too real for it to be a dream. I decided to finally head back to the servants' quarters and hurry to sleep. There is work that must be done early in the morning.
Within a week’s time, the execution of the renounced Alpha and Luna were set in motion. Marine’s body seemed to have slowly shown growth with its healing. There was no sign of her waking anytime soon. “Your Highness, there is but a busload of people waiting for last transport. We should think of moving you and her sometime soon to the capital,” One of the royal guards said. Callan continued to sit next to Marine’s side as she lay there asleep. “Ready transport,” Callan said as he kissed Marine's forehead. He walked outside the room and spoke with the doctor. “You will ride with her and make sure nothing goes wrong when we transport her.” The doctor bowed and walked into her room.
While everyone was worried for their Alpha and what Prince Callan could do to him. The Luna found her way through the purple mist and found an unconscious girl laying on the leaves. Her curiosity soon was replaced by anger when she leaned down to see the girls face. "Oh, Marine. You should be dead." She could see the knife trying to come out of her leg, and then she saw the bracelet was lying next to her. She rushed around and grabbed a handful of leaves to keep the silver from burning her and clicked the bracelet on Marine once again. The knife stopped moving, and the Luna sighed relief.*Crunch* *Snap*
For the passing weeks, Callan and his family have come and gone every chance they got. Callan and Claire were spending even more time together which only were confirming the rumors that were spread around the pack. "Please Callan, I am the most beautiful female in the whole pack," Claire said as she flipped the fake thing on her head that she calls hair. Today the servants were cleaning the ballroom, and Claire came through with the clicking of her heels echoing throughout. He looked at me as he spoke, "Yes you are," We both looked away, "What are you looking at baby?" She turned around to see, made a face, and then walked away. He started to follow her then stopped and looked at me for another second. I only

"They look so beautiful when they dance." "Those two were made for each other."
*The same day* I went straight to the doctor so no one would question what happened. But honestly, I seem to be in the wrong place at the wrong time because as I sat waiting for the doctor to see me in the room that only had curtains the Alpha and Luna walked in. "You should try to not upset the Luna, Marine," The doctor said. "My existence upsets her," I said as I was holding my shirt against my chest as my back was exposed. The doctor froze. "Alpha," the doctor said as he stepped away in between the curtains. They were talking in a low voice when the doctor said, "While you are h
I never knew my family. I was told that I was found abandoned within the forest, but the way I am treated says a different story. Instead of living a life like everyone else I was forced into being a servant. I grew up in a bland life. I was not taught how to have emotions, how to feel loved, or what it was like to have a family. I was walking as if I were made of stone. I am still not trusted within this pack, and I am forced to wear this metal bracelet to keep me from my wolf. "Good morning Alpha, Luna, Shall I clean the room while you two have breakfast?" The Luna rolled her eyes as she walked past me. "Yes, then maintain the gardens on the main entrance. We have very important guests coming."
