The Alpha’s cursed mate

Chapter 3

Victoria's POV

I walked out of my room towards the kitchen, after preparing dinner. I prepared meatloaf, mashed potatoes and tater tots. Serving it on the dining table, just as I expected they all came down, flooding the dining room, and after they ate their food, they all retired to their various rooms. I packed the plates and ate the leftovers, I washed the plates and arranged them properly in the basket.

I walk into my room arrange my duvet and fold it to be comfier and call it a day, waking up due to the sound of birds chirping, singing out in rhythm. A yawn escaped my mouth as I stretched my body after standing up from the duvet and walking out of the room.

As I walked into the kitchen, I noticed the pack members weren't awake yet. It seems I woke up early today, starting my morning routine like cleaning the things the pack members used at night while I was asleep.

I cooked breakfast for the entire pack and served it in the dining room. I was disappointed when I noticed none of them were coming, then I remembered they always train every morning at the training ground. It's probably because I woke up late yesterday and they returned before I woke up. Packing the food and arrange them in the microwave, then I start cleaning every room in the pack's house.

I entered Brittany's room, and the smell was awful even without a wolf's smell. I almost puke but I refrained myself. I cleaned the room and was finally able to breathe, she must have deliberately made the mess knowing I will clean the mess she made. what will she do after finding her mate? She would be forced to move out of the pack's house, and she will have to start cleaning her room herself. I pity her mate. My eyes were filled with sadness at the thought, it kills me to know I won't have a mate like others, since I'm not a wolf. Even if I have, he will reject me after knowing I am a human with no wolf, who will want a fragile-looking girl as a mate.

I have always wished to have one, but I will end up being rejected. My eyes sting for unshed tears, which were in the corners of my eyes, blinking my eyes and making the tears fall freely. I cleaned my tears and walked out of the room bowing down my head but I ended up colliding with someone, I fell flat on the floor with my face hitting the ground.

"Ouch!" I cried out in pain holding my face. I looked up only to be met with Brittany's cold face. I fell on my butt after seeing her cold stares, I winced in pain and gently stood up from the ground.

"I'm sorry," I said, and she glared daggers at me.

"Will sorry help me retrieve my books from the floor?" she fired angrily. I stepped back, looking down, only to see books littered on the floor. I started picking up the books one by one, I gave her the books and she slapped me hard on them, she punched me in my chin, and I fell to the ground with my face.

Blood was oozing out of my nose, and tears were streaming down my eyes, although I promised myself not to cry the excruciating pain was too much for me to handle.

"Get the f**k out of my face, but I ain't done with you," she said and walked into her room.

I walked into my room and cleaned my nose with a cloth. The blood soon stopped flowing. Walking back towards the dining room, plates were littered on the table with droplets of food on the floor. I packed the plates into the kitchen and washed them before arranging them in the basket. Walking into the dining room with a broom, I sweep the entire dining room. After cleaning the dining room, I collected their clothes and washed them before spreading them under the scorching sun.

I watched my clothes with the remaining soap, spreading it beside my room. The pack members would tear my clothes if they saw it near theirs.

I walked into my room to take a deep sleep. I woke up due to the panging headache but I ignored it. I collected the clothes I spread under the sun. I returned the clothes and by the time I was done, it was time to prepare lunch. I prepared barbecue and chicken fried steak. While cooking, I went out to pee. As I was returning, I saw Brittany coming out of the kitchen. She had a mischievous smile on her face. What can she be up to? I thought for a while, but I let it slide, she looks suspicious.

I served the food, and they all flooded the room. They all started talking, and my ears hurt, the alpha and his mate and the Alpha's son came down, and the chattering was stopped.

"Good afternoon Alpha." we all greeted, and he motioned for us to raise our heads up.

"Good afternoon, pack members of the Blood wood pack. There will soon be a gathering here for the future Alpha of the Raven Wood pack to find his mate, there is a possibility of him finding his mate here. Any questions?" the alpha asked, and they all shook their heads positively, except Brittany, who raised her hands up.

"What's your question?" he asked, pointing at her.

"When is he coming?" Brittany asked excitedly.

"Probably next week," he replied.

"Since there aren't any questions, let's eat." he added, and they all nodded. He takes the first bite and chews it fastly, he drinks some water and tastes the food again, and ends up spitting it out. All the pack's members also take their first bite and end up spilling it. I looked at Brittany and saw her smiling happily like she had just won a lottery ticket. The pack members all turned to me with angry looks.

"The food is too salty and too spicy!" Brittany shouted, and I looked at her like she had grown two heads.
