The Blood in the Dragon

Liv’s P.O.V   I have lived in this pack for many years, in fact I have lived here ever since they found me and they have always treated me with kindness. They told me when I was of age that I hatched from an egg, but they never told me what I was exactly. All they would ever say is don’t worry about it, you are safe and home now, which was what I was for the longest time. Safe. None of the members of my pack knew that I was hatched from an egg, they just thought I was found by the Alpha and Luna, that they had accepted me into the pack and taken care of me. The Alpha and Luna were really kind and upheld our pack's laws and traditions, but then we had a rogue attack and they were both tragically killed in front of everyone, as the new Alpha took his place at the head of our pack. The Alpha Rogue is now the Alpha to the Black Tree pack and after inspecting everyone in our pack he thought I was just a wolf that couldn’t shift, so he started calling me human and got the rest of his rogues to do so as well. I would cook and clean, do their laundry as they never asked others to do it and everything was going fine. I was pretty much left alone to do my own thing as I was just a human in their eyes and I was happy with it being that way because I still had my friends from the original pack, until one day when the new Alpha yelled for me to come to his office. I walked into the new Alpha’s office and he looked up from the computer as soon as I did. I had only ever spoken to him once before, hell I didn’t even know his name I just called him Alpha, but I could feel that I was in trouble with him for some reason.   “Human, do you like it here in this pack?” Alpha asked, making me sigh. What was he planning to do now, kick me out or kill me like he did my old Alpha and Luna? He stood up from behind his desk and I saw that he wasn’t much taller than me, I’m 5.7, so he must be about 5.9 and from what I could see we were very different, whereas he had short brown hair, I had dyed my hair pink because it was my favourite colour. f**k it, why shouldn’t I be honest, I thought as I looked up into the new Alpha’s green eyes and decided to answer him.   “My name isn’t human, my name is Liv Morgan, my friends either call me Liv or Morgan.” I replied and he just rolled his eyes at me.   “Okay, fine, human Liv, do you like being here? Do you like living here?” He asked and it made me think for a few minutes about it. I had lived here my whole life and although things had changed a hell of a lot, I was still happy here with my friends and the original pack members, who I classed as my family.   “I don’t even know your name, but if you want me to answer you I will. Yes, I love living here, this is my home. I love my room and I love my friends. Are there any other questions you would like to ask me?” I replied and he actually growled at me.   “My name is Alpha Ozzy and you will call me by my title. If you love being here so much then I suggest you work on your attitude and also get my food faster than what you have been doing. Oh and just one more thing….” Alpha Ozzy said, moving to the front of his desk and standing close to me. His fingers softly touched my chin and lifted my head to make me look up at him.   “Liv, I do not have a mate, so if you’re lucky enough I’ll choose you to be my chosen mate.” Alpha Ozzy said and I couldn’t help the chuckle that escaped my lips, but before I could think about who he was and the power he held now I blurted out the first thing that came to my mind.   “You would have to shower first, you nasty smelling shit.” I replied and before I knew what happened he slapped me so hard that I was knocked to the floor. He grabbed me by my hair and dragged me kicking and screaming out of the office and into another room. He lifted me up and threw me to the floor again, but then slammed the door shut and locked it behind him. I got up from the floor and immediately saw that he had brought me into his bedroom. What the f**k is he doing dragging me into this awful smelly shithole? I felt like I was going to gag when I looked around at the state it was in and then I noticed that he was walking towards me. He reached forward and grabbed me by my shirt, ripping it open in the process and then he jerked the rest of my shirt off. He again slapped me, causing me to stagger back and then he ran at me, knocking me down on the ground. He kicked me in the stomach a few times, causing the air to be knocked out of me and then he stepped back, which gave me the chance to get my breath back as he decided what other torture he was going to give me. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, trying to control my breathing as my old Alpha had taught me and then I remembered my training. The old Alpha would train me every day to defend myself, block attacks and also to attack. Alpha Ozzy stormed back over to me and I knew that he was going to kick me again, so I waited until his foot was about to land on my stomach again and then I grabbed it, pulling it and making him fall flat on his ass. I quickly got to my feet and started kicking him, giving him a taste of his own medicine.   “HOW….DOES….THAT….FEEL….” I shouted, saying each word between kicks. I heard banging on the door and shortly after it got kicked down by three guards, who wasted no time in grabbing me off him and restraining me.   “Throw….throw her in the attic….that's where she's going to live….from now on. No…no food for two nights, only water.” Alpha Ozzy said, coughing and getting to his feet.   “Yes, Alpha.” The three guards replied together, but then one of them grabbed a shirt and handed it to me. I quickly put it on, realising that my shirt was ripped open by that t**t and then I was dragged out of that room by them.    “Way to go Liv, you kicked his ass. Listen, I’ll try to bring you something to eat tonight, just don’t try and kill him just yet, okay.” One of the guards whispered to me and I instantly recognised him as one of my old pack members. Jake.   “I just hope the attic has a shower, I need to wash his nasty ass smell off me.” I whispered back, as they escorted me up the stairs and to the attic. Jake opened the door and I walked inside, switching the lights on. I shook my head as I looked around and saw the mess this place was in. This place was a shithole and it was now my new room. I waited for the guards to leave before I tied my hair back into a bun and rolled up my sleeves, getting ready to tackle this mess. I found a broom and some old dusters that had seen better days and got to work. I started dusting first, knocking all the dust to the floor so that I would be able to sweep it up into a pile afterwards, then I started moving things around and making space. I found an old cot and a dresser, so I cleaned them off as best as I could and swept it up, adding the dust to the pile that was already quite big. I found some clothes, which since the new Alpha took over I never had much of, but I was fine with that. I moved the chairs around and found an old lamp and a night stand, so I placed them by the cot and carried on. After I had sorted through and thrown out most of the stuff, I came back up to the attic and saw Decor standing there.    “Here, you don’t need a cot, here's your bed.” Decor said, as he opened the door to reveal a mattress and box spring.    “Thanks man.” I said, smiling at him. Decor nodded and left me to carry on, closing the door behind him. I grabbed a blanket and put it over my bed and then took another look around. I guess this is where I’m going to be staying now, this is now my home, I thought as I laid down on the bed and pulled the blanket over me, covering up. Jake came up a few minutes later and handed me a sandwich.   “Here, eat this before he finds out.” Jake said and then rushed out of the attic. I did as he said and hurried to eat, then once I was finished I hid the plate and locked the door, not wanting to get in any more trouble and not wanting to get Jake in trouble for defying the Alpha’s orders by feeding me. It was now time for me to go to sleep and after everything that had happened I was exhausted, so I laid back down in bed and closed my eyes, quickly drifting off. I was woken up by a sudden bang as Alpha Ozzy kicked the door to the attic down and stormed in. He grabbed me by my hair and began punching me in the face.   “YOU LITTLE b***h, YOU THINK YOUR SO f*****g BADASS!!!” Alpha Ozzy shouted and punched me some more. I felt as my lip busted open and the blood started to trickle down my chin. I could feel my eye swelling up, but he kept hitting me.   “YOU’RE NOTHING BUT A f*****g HUMAN! YOU WILL BECOME THE SLAVE OF THIS PACK!! DO YOU HEAR ME?!!!” Alpha Ozzy shouted, throwing me down on my bed and kicking me. He turned to leave as I was getting back and as soon as his back was to me I jumped on it and bit down hard on his ear, making it bleed.    “MOTHERFUCKER!!! DO YOU REALLY THINK I’M NOT GOING TO FIGHT BACK?!! YOU STUPID ASSHOLE!!!” I screamed at him as I let him go and jumped down, pushing him out the door. He stumbled away in shock and I stumbled back in pain. I wasn’t going to stand for his s**t, no matter how much he beat me. I looked in the broken mirror that was in the attic and saw just how swollen and bruised up my face really was. This was going to really hurt in the morning, I thought as I walked back over to my bed and laid down. I tried to get some sleep, but the rest of the night I was constantly on guard in case Alpha Ozzy came back. He could kill me at any time as he was the Alpha and although it was self defence I had attacked him, so he could have had me killed or killed me himself there and then, but he didn’t. I wasn’t complaining that I was still alive, but I couldn’t understand why he just threw me to the side and then attacked me again when I was alone up here, why? What was he playing at?
