The Slave's Warrior Mate

White Fang Pack

1. Terry

“Get out here you lazy piece of shit.” I start to wake up thinking that I’m hearing someone yelling at me. My door opens as I start to pick myself up off of my pallet. All of a sudden, I feel a hard kick on my side. “Ugggghhh” The kicks just keep coming. One to my head snaps my head back hard. Finally, they stop long enough for me to scoot back and sit up against the wall. I c***k open my eyes just enough to see the future Luna of our pack. Her face is scrunched up, pissed off. I use the wall to help me stand up. I do it as quickly as I can. I look back at her. Bowing my head to the side, I bare my neck in submission. “Luna, how may I be of service? “Get out there and scrub those floors until they shine and then you are to have breakfast ready. You have three hours before everyone gets back. Make sure it’s done right.”

She gives me that evil look. I know that look, she wants to take me to the torture room again. I’m still not walking right from the last time. I start to see flashes in my mind of what was done to me. The cat of nine tails dipped in liquid silver. Singing through the air as it lands on my flesh, tearing chunks of flesh off as I scream. Kasey, the future Luna, laughing like she is having the best time of her life. She gave me ten lashes that day. By the time she was done, I was hanging from the chains limply. She made sure to rub it in that she can do what she wants when she wants by getting right in my face smiling ear to ear. “I hope it was good for you as it was for me. Make sure all your chores are done when I get back or we will spend some more time together.” She then turns and leaves me. Thanks, Goddess, for Lucy. She came in after Kasey left and got me down. She bandaged me up good enough that I didn’t make any noise the rest of the day doing my chores. Kasey, the future Luna, left after beating me that day. I had the whole packhouse to myself. Needless to say, I stayed up over 36 hours making sure all the chores were done before I went and passed out. I got a whole three hours of sleep until I was woken up.

I have been scrubbing the floors for almost two hours now. I see Lucy come down the stairs looking at me in confusion. “Terry, what are you doing? You should be cooking breakfast by now. The pack will be back anytime.” I look up at her. “I have started the potatoes; the bacon and sausage are in the oven. The eggs are in the bowl, they just need to be cooked. The mixture for the breakfast burrito is done and in the warmer.” I keep scrubbing the floor. I’m almost done. Then I have to cook the eggs. “I have to get the floor done or Kasey will take me back to that horrid room.” A scared look comes over Lucy’s face. “Okay, I will get the eggs started and start getting the food on the side boards before anyone comes in.” She rushes into the connecting room which is the Kitchen.

I run into the kitchen when I was done with the floors. Looking around franticly, I notice that Lucy has gotten all the food on the sideboard and the eggs cooked. I start up the stove and c***k some eggs, starting the future Alpha and Luna’s omelets. Lucy comes rushing in. People are starting to come in. I have to go. I look at her. “Thank you so much Lucy.” She winks at me as she slides into the back stairway to make her way to the laundry room. I had just finished platting the food when Dirk and Kasey come in acting like they are royalty. I bow my head and don’t look them in the eye. My gaze stays on the floor. “Why the hell are you in my sight you filthy dog? Honey, get my food and bring it to me. I don’t want to lose my appetite by looking at something so disgusting this morning.” He says, walking out of the kitchen and into the dining hall. “How can you be so disgusting? Maybe after breakfast I will punish you for upsetting my Alpha.” I shiver as she picks up the plates and leave. I’m telling you that female is a demon in sheep’s clothing.

I look around the kitchen and sigh deeply. Well, maybe I can get a shower in after I get the kitchen cleaned up. I start on the countertops. I go out to the dining room and see that only a couple of wolves are left munching on the last of the breakfast meat. I look at it longingly as my stomach growls. They walk out of the room laughing like it’s a great day. Probably is in their life. There is nothing left. I have tears in my eyes as I clean up the mess and make my way back into the kitchen. It takes me an hour to get all the dishes done. I notice it's nine am, s**t I’ve got to get my shower in or I won’t have time to take one today. I’m using the back stairway to try and stay off everyone’s radar when I run right into Lucas, the future beta of the pack. “Oh, hell no, you didn’t just touch me.” I feel a punch that knocks me down on the floor. Then he stomps me on my already soar ribs. I hear a c***k before he is done. Laughing at me, he walks away saying, “That will teach you to touch me dog.” I make my way to my room before I pass out from the pain.

“Terry, Terry, come on you are too heavy for me to move. You have to get up.” I feel someone tugging on me. I moan in pain as I open my eyes to my best friend Lucy. “Lucy, it hurts so bad.” I say, wheezing. “They really did a number on you this time. Come on, I brought my bag. I'll fix you up then you need to shower quickly. Dirk and Kasey are both looking for you.” That wakes me right up. I don’t want them to catch me in my room or they will kill me this time. “Okay, hurry Lucy or just let me go. I will live at least for a little while as long as they don’t catch me here.” Lucy works quietly and quickly. She doctored me up, had me shower, then wrapped my ribs and patched my back up. I look at the time and notice its almost ten. I have to get to the kitchen and start lunch. It will be easy today. Cold meat sandwiches and chips.

I got all the lunches done and into the cooler for the warriors to take out to the training fields. I grab my cleaning cabbie and start on the first-floor bathrooms and work my way up. I hope that none of the pack come in while I clean today. I just want a peaceful day to clean with no more wounds on my body. I’m moving slowly enough. My leg is killing me with every step I limp. My earbuds are in with my hard rock blaring in my ears. I don’t hear Lucy coming in behind me. She slaps me on my ass, making me jump. I look behind me and see her. She starts laughing as I pull the earbuds out. “You scared the s**t out of me. What are you doing?” She helps me pack away my cleaning supplies. “Are you going to go to the bon fire tonight? All of the servants are allowed to join tonight.” I look at her. “You know that I am not included in their group. I’m an orphan that the pack allows to live here as long as I do what I’m told.” Lucy shakes her head at me. “If you’re not going, neither am I.” We are walking down the hallway to the closet where I keep all my cleaning supplies. “Lucy you should go. Your 18 now. You might meet your mate. Don’t stay here because of me. It would kill me if you miss out on your mate because of me.” I tell her.

I get out the vacuum to do the hallways. I have five floors to do before everyone starts to come back to the packhouse. At that time, I will have to get the snacks started. Since there is a bon fire mating party tonight. A cratering service has been called in. Lucy grabs the cleaning supplies for the windows. “I’ll think about going. It just wouldn’t be the same without my BFF.” I look around quickly, making sure no one was around to hear her. “Don’t say things like that. I don’t want you to get hurt. Which will happen if anyone hears you.” She gives me that look of defiance. This girl, I think, chuckling. She has more heart than brains. I hope she finds a good mate that will love her and take her away from this hell.
