*****
Hailey
It was 2 am and I was still cleaning the kitchen, I had a few more dishes left on the counter. I have worked a lot. I wanted to sleep. Finally, I was done. I can go to bed. I am an omega, I do not have parents, they died 10 years ago in the big war between the two biggest opposite werewolves packs who were fighting for territory and supremacy.
I do not know why but no one loves me here, because I am the lowest of the werewolf chain. I am called names, and some are pretty ugly, sometimes I am beaten up as well. I do not want to stay here, but there is no place I could go because I still hope that on the day I turn 18 I will finally be free and my mate will come and look for me, he will set me free and take me away with him to live happily. I smile at that thought. Just ten more days Hailey, then we will find him said Rose, my beautiful wolf in my head.
- Yeah I hope so. I told Rose.
I entered the basement, which was also my room because the Alpha said I was not worthy to have my own room or anything else of mine. So I have to stay here, I am scared, but I can not object to the Alpha. I enter my room and everything is scattered around. That is something that is happening very often because of some cruel pack members. I tidy up everything because the only few objects that I have are a few torn clothes, an alarm clock, a photo of my mum and dad, a few books, a mattress, a pillow, and a blanket and I go to bed.
- Good night Hailey. Rose said.
- Good night Rose. I said

10 days later.
I woke up with a smile on my face, it was that day when I will finally be free. I am also happy because today is my birthday. I get up and take a shower in the common shower room, which is used only by the omegas. It is 5.30 am, and no one is up right now, so I can enjoy the shower. After I am done, I went to the kitchen, to prepare breakfast. In an hour everything is ready, bacon, eggs, toast, fresh juice, and a pie. I hear footsteps and hide. They do not want to see me. All pack members occupy the four long dining tables and serve themselves. I am hungry, but I can not eat until they are not done. After everyone is done they leave. I can finally eat something of the leftovers. When I am done I start cleaning the dishes, put them in the sink, and start washing them. After I am done with the kitchen, I go to clean all the rooms. When I reach the third floor I can smell a fresh smell, chocolate, and mint. Rose starts to howl. I think I have found my mate. I follow the scent which led me to the Alpha’s son’s room. I touch the doorknob, but I feel a stabbing pain. I open the door and my smile fell off my face. My mate was on top of a naked girl, whom I recognize as Amber the Beta’s daughter, the pack‘s favorite girl. They both smell me and look at me.
- What the hell are you doing here? Amber asks me
- I... clean... I stammered at the same time while tears were falling down my face.
Jason the Alpha, looks at me and frowns while realization flashes on his face, while Amber covers them with a blanket. Tears are falling down my cheeks. I leave the room and go to my room. I started crying. A few minutes later Jason comes in. He looks at me and starts kicking me and punching me. It goes on until I fall on the floor. But that is nothing until I hear the following words.
- I Jason Masters, future alpha of the Night Walker’s pack reject you Hailey as my mate. I do not know why the Moon goddess would do such a thing as to pair me with you, I have a true mate Amber, she will keep me happy and satisfied, which you will never do. He spoke.
After hearing these words I did not know what to do, I could only feel the enormous pain in my chest and I could hear Rose howling and crying, she was in immense pain and no one could help her. It was hurting me too, the pain was bad.
He left the basement.
I knew the only thing I can do was follow.
- I Hailey Knight, Alpha of the Moonstone pack accept your rejection Alpha Jason Masters.
I could hear my heart breaking into a million pieces and I could feel that something is happening inside of me, I was losing myself. At that moment the only thought I had was that it would be better for both of us to be dead, and not to feel this pain.
Afterward, I do not know what happened to me because I blacked out.
I feel like my life is slowly sucked out of my body, being abused is different, but being rejected by your mate is different. A week has passed and no one knows what has happened. Jason is beating me openly and no one does anything about it. My life is worse now. I try to kill myself, but Rose does not let me. I am afraid of everything, the beating, and kicking. I have to survive this. I silently bear this and hope that death will come after me. I do not want to live anymore, how can I survive this, I often wonder.
There is always one answer that Rose gives to me. "Please stay strong and do not lose hope, this will pass and we will be free, we will survive this, we have to wait a little bit more and we have to stay strong.
