The Alpha's Revenge

Chapter 2

Annalia's POV

Memory loss? That would be a good way of making sure they don’t see me as a threat. I’ll just finish school and find some way to get to Crystal Lake. I take advantage of the fact that everyone thinks I’m in a coma. I sleep for another week and then make myself known. Dr Campbell did multiple exams on me and the conclusion is that I have amnesia. I also don’t talk, I make little grunting noises, but no formed words. I can write things down, but I refuse to speak. The Doctor has assessed that I am in shock about losing both my parents. He says the amnesia is from hitting my head. There is a possibility I will get back both my memory and ability to speak, but nothing is guaranteed. He also doesn’t know how long it may take or what I will remember. I think this is the safest route for me right now. The new Alpha takes me to the pack house and takes me to a supply closet he has converted into a room for me.

“You will stay here and help around the pack. You will assist the omegas with chores when you are not in school. You will earn your keep here, or you will be punished. I am the Alpha now and what I say goes. You will do what I say, when I say it. No questions. You will eat what I give you and when I give it to you, you will wear what I give you. You are no longer the spoiled, privileged Alpha’s daughter anymore. This pack would be better without you and your traitorous family. Do you understand?”

I just stared at him, not responding. He is making me a slave. I am 10 years old, and he is making me a slave and threatening me with punishment. Next thing I feel is a slap on my face and I fall to the floor. I grab my face as I feel the burn. I look up at him from the floor and he smirks

“You are no one now! When I ask you something, you had better respond. I don’t care if you can’t talk. Now, this will be the only time I will ever repeat myself. DO YOU UNDERSTAND??” he growls at me

I mouth yes and shake my head.

“Good. Now clean up this mess and go help in the kitchen.” He says and walks away

That’s when I noticed I was bleeding from my lip onto the floor. I always knew Beta Clarence, excuse me, Alpha Clarence now, never liked me, but I didn’t think it was this bad that he would hit me. I hurry and clean up the mess, go into my new room and see they have taken things from my room and put them in here. I have a basic twin bed with a lumpy mattress, some jeans and shirts from my room, a coat and a few sweaters for the upcoming cold weather. There are no pictures or memorabilia from my room. Nothing personal that reminds me of my parents or my previous life. I grab my left wrist and hold it over my heart. My charm bracelet that my father gave me at age five is there. I never take it off, just like he told me. There is a picture of my parents in the heart locket, there is a key, a wolf and an angel. I will guard and protect this with my life, because it is all I have left.

I changed my clothes because I had blood on them. I found a pen and pad to carry with me to communicate. I then go to the kitchen to do my chores. I am not overly concerned because the lead omega Mrs. Washington is a wonderful woman. She is kind and fair. She runs a tight ship and the pack house runs like a well-oiled machine because of her, but she knows how to talk to people and everyone loves working with her. When I get to the kitchen, there are a lot of people there that didn’t work there before. Ms. Washington is nowhere in sight. When I ask for her, I am told she is no longer in the pack and Ms. Lowell is the new lead omega. At that moment, Ms. Lowell steps from the Lead Omega Office in the back of the kitchen and starts yelling at everyone for standing around. But she hasn’t handed out the assignments yet. Everyone just disperses and starts doing something, but it was a total s**t show. Dinner was late because no one was assigned, and we had no menu. Every omega got in trouble that day, some received a beating, others were docked pay. I did not receive food for 2 days. After this type of results and punishments for 2 days, we all got together and figured out we needed to do it on our own, Ms. Lowell was not going to do anything. And what did she care? She was not the one being punished.

Over the first week as I walked around the pack, I saw a lot of new faces and a lot of old faces were nowhere around. I know Clarence said he would kill anyone who did not comply with his rules. Did he kill all those people? It felt like half the pack was gone. Even with the new members here, you can tell a lot was missing. The Dark Hollow pack was the 3rd largest pack in the US. We had over 700 members. Crystal Lake was number 2 with over 1200 members and the Full Moon pack was the largest with almost 1600 members. Looking around now, I doubt we are the 3rd anymore. Where could all the people have gone? I send a silent prayer to the Moon Goddess to guide the souls of my pack members, wherever they may be.

This pack is so different now. No one looks happy anymore. Everyone is just going about their day with no joy or purpose. The new members are mean and aggressive. The female omegas are constantly assaulted by the new warriors, and Clarence does nothing about it. There are very few male omegas and all the new male wolves seem to have been given warrior status. The omegas and unmated shewolves have started not going out at night, staying in groups and even living together to protect each other. I tried communicating with people I thought were my friends, but I was bullied and physically assaulted. I am no one now, just like he said. I guess since I am no longer the Alpha’s daughter, I am not worth knowing anymore. Even new pack members and their children have joined in on the abuse. It has been one week since I woke up, and I wish I had died that day instead of just in a coma. I would be with my mom and dad, not here alone. I thought I could put up with anything until I got my wolf and got out of here. But I don't know!!?
