Chapter 75
Shaking my head I look at Michelle. “sorry what color were his eyes when the spell took over?” cocking her head to the left as she sips her hot cocoa “white why?” “cause they said that the alpha and beta were under a spell when they were at their four-year service but their eyes were black when I saw the recruits so guess they were wrong.” shrugging my shoulder “or it's not by the same witch you know. My mom use to work in the alpha house she always said don’t work with witches they are evil. When you are under their control you are no longer you even after always leaves its mark. She saw the alphas witches control new wolves to the pack she said their eyes would gloss over like a mind link and then glow different colors depending on the witch doing the magic. So maybe it's the same?” she shrugs making too much sense for me right now.
“so your mom was high in the pack?” she laughs so hard I was worried she was going to choke. “no sorry my mom was a maid. My father was a warrior in the first strike platoon for the rising sun pack.” the twitch on her face was enough to tell me there's a story there. “so what brings you here if I remember right the rising sun is on the other coast?” stopping her in her tracks food halfway to her mouth she stares at nothing for a long moment. Worried I had just broken her I start to reach out. When my hand touched her shoulder I felt a shock and burn in my palm. A soft glow of the moonlight pushed the burn marks off my fingertips down to the first knuckle. A feeling of the full moonlight washes over me warming me to the core. A soft gasp pulls my eyes from my hands to Michelle's eyes. The sound breaking the spell I pull my hand away “wow that was so pretty what was it?” Michelle asks me a look of wonder and awe covers her “you know what I actually have no clue. But I do apologize I didn’t mean to pry.” I smile at her hoping she can sense the truth.
Shaking her head “oh no it's okay and well it's not that bad of a story just sad mostly. My parents were paired as mates to produce strong pups. When Misha was born he was all the alpha had wanted in the next group of young warriors so my parents produce another but I am not male so they after a few years had them try again but with a new drug and then Michael was born. Just after I turned 16 the beta came to my parents to arrange for my mate. He wanted to take me as his mate and take me yearly as he needs an heir. My mother refused and my father agreed. That should have been the end as it's law no pups. But the beta went to the alpha who is his twin brother I am sure you can guess where that went. Anyways mother overheard them making a plan to bring us all to the office and order my mating to the beta. If refused my father and Misha would be stripped of rank and banished my mother would become the Unmated male's new maid. Michael would be taken in as the alpha's private ward and I would still be given to the beta. She rushed home and told us to pack what we could. We didn’t have time to ask or argue she said we had an hour at best if we all wanted to live. So we ran and had been on the run for almost a year. About a month ago we had been camping in a cave and a grizzly came out of nowhere and ended up killing my parents but Michael and I still had Misha. But then we overheard rogues talking about the princess or something and were caught when Michael tripped. Misha scooped him up and ran. I ran too not as fast as Misha I got separated from them.
After I have no idea how long I stumbled over the border of this pack and felt Misha’s bond snap. Micheal being six now wouldn't have a wolf so I only pray he was spared and being held prisoner and not killed I know how that sounds. But as a prisoner, there's a chance of being found and freed death is final. Ya know?” she says looking up at me with hope “well then let's hope together” taking a glass of orange juice. “so wow. And now you're mated to a beta guess someone knew you were meant to be the beta female” I giggle but she paled. “oh I’m sorry I didn’t mean to upset you. What’s wrong?” “I don’t want to be a breeder” she cries out. “I don’t know what a breeder is I mean I can guess. But I don’t think that's how things work here and I spent a long 3-hour drive with Tyler and I will tell you he's a good guy. He also has a sister that would hurt him or well that's the vibe I got from her.” I laugh a little remembering Skylar. This little wolf is going to be well protected with the blacks in her corner.
“So why are you here?” she mumbles out around a huge bite of a cheeseburger. “oh you know the usual spelled to think you mated to a witch. Find your fated mate and reject him. Run away to be brought back and abused cause said witch your to mate is your brother mate. Rescued by your fated mate and alpha who pretty much hates you now. To run away and be tracked down by said alpha and brought back here.” trying for the air of it all normal but the poor thing started choking.
“what?”
