It's been almost a week now since Dylan told me about the plan and I have a feeling that it's not gonna work out.
I don't mean to be negative or anything but have you ever had a bad feeling about something, then it actually happens?
I put that thought away and started chanting a few "positive energy " "it will work out well" "nothing will go wrong"
" April? " I hear snow calling me.
" I have a bad feeling about today! " she continues and my worry comes back.
" why? " I ask.
" I don't know I just do but it's probably nothing. " she says and cuts me off.
She leaves my mind and blocks me.
Before I can make out what that was all about, I hear footsteps and I smell the familiar scent of Dylan.
"Dylan! Hey! " I say excitedly.
" did you just call me by my name you worthless omega? You will address me as sir! " he says seriously and stands guard at my cell door.
What happened to him?
" Are you okay? " I ask.
" none of you damn business! " he says and for some reason I can't help but feel hurt.
Why the hell was I hurt in the first place?
I should have expected this but for some reason I feel betrayed.
Before I can ask him anymore questions I smell the scent of the Alpha and his son walking towards my cell.
" hello April!" the alpha says as though we were the best of friends.
I look at him in disgust and remain silent.
" Dylan, has she been treated well? " Jake asks a bit worried after looking at me.
Ha! How can one be treated well in a dungeon? But I guess I've been treated Okay. I mean they haven't tortured me yet! They actually feed me well. So, I guess it's Okay.
Why did he look worried? I have no idea! He could be faking though! He has some serious acting skills, I'll give him that!
" yes Alpha! " Dylan says respectfully.
"Okay then! Get her ready for the ceremony! " Jake says and then leaves while his father follows slowly behind him.
First of all, why did it seem as though Jake was giving the orders now?
Second of all, what ceremony?
As if reading my mind, Dylan answers "you are to be made an omega today. "
" oh! So, now you decide to talk nicely huh? " I say, my anger slowly rising.
" look April, I'm sorry for being a pain earlier. It was all an act so, that the alpha and his son don't notice we are on friendly terms because they might get suspicious. " he says sincerely.
Should I believe him?
" wear these! And first let me get you some water to freshen up cause Goddess you stick worse than a sewage! " he says and I can't help but look and smell myself.
Goddess, I did stink! But really worse than a sewage?
" hey! It's not that bad! " I protest.
" whatever helps you sleep at night! " he replies.
Dylan leaves and after a while he comes back with a bucket of water, soap and a hair brush..
After I'm done I put on the clothes that he threw me.
I now wore a black and white checked shirt, black jeans and white ankle boots. I then did my hair in a ponytail. Lastly, I applied some Vaseline strawberry lip balm on my lips and I was ready to go.
I am to be made an omega anyway! I might as well go down with a bang!
" Dylan! I'm ready! " I say.
He comes instantly and opens the cell door for me.
" my! Oh my! Don't you look delicious! If I was into girls I would totally do you! " he says laughing. Then as if realising what he just said he stops and looks at me seriously.
Did he just tell me he is gay?
" are you gay? " I ask bluntly.
" ssshhh wanna tell the whole pack? Yeah I am! " he says blushing.
" that's awesome! I always wanted a gay best friend! " I say genuinely.
" did you just call me your best friend? " he asks shocked.
" um....well....um... Don't we have a ceremony to get to? " I ask ignoring his question.
he notices what I did but he let's it slide.
He escorts me out and I'm met with the beautiful sight of the full moon. If I had more time I would have stayed standing for hours just to admire its beauty.
I am met by a crowd of people and they all give way to let me pass. I hear them murmuring a few " sorry" " did you hear she is to be made an omega tonight? " and " what did she do to deserve all this? "
I ignore them because how on earth is their pity going to help anyway?
"Quiet! " the alpha commands and the murmuring stops.
" we are gathered here today for two things, I will not say them because they are both surprises. " he pauses " Jake Currington, my son step forward. " my mate steps forward and he looks at me regret.
Regret? Why the hell would he be feeling regretful? And anyway it's a little too late for that!
" from today henceforth I appoint Jake Currington as the alpha of dark moon pack. May the moon goddess guide you and help you make the right decisions. By the powers given to me by the moon, I now give you your new alpha, Jake Currington!" the crowd erupts in cheers.
Jake then howls to the moon and says " thank you father! I promise to help each and every one of you! May the moon goddess help me. "
" my first job as alpha will be to deal with insolent pack members and without further delay I want April Robinson to step forward. "
I step forward with a smile on my face not caring what's going to happen next.
"how dare you smile? " he asks. His voice dripping with power and I know that he is close to shifting.
" what did you expect? For me to beg you for mercy? Ha! Well too bad for you because I won't ever beg you for anything again! " I say and spit at his feet.
He looks angry and proceeds to say :
" April Robinson for disrespecting your alpha ,from now hence forth you are an omega. " he finishes off with a wicked smile.

I burst out laughing and every one looks at me in shock." was that supposed to work? " I ask in between laughs." ofcourse! You are now an omega! " he says proudly and looks pleased with himself.Another burst of laughter escapes me and I have to hold my stomach and start breathing in and out so as to control myself.After a few seconds I finally calm down and say :" if I was an omega would I still have my wolf? " snow asks. By the look everyone has I can tell that they know it's no longer me but my wolf in control even though I'm still in human form.Jake is silent for a while and I nod giving Dylan a sign for what is to happen next.I push Jake on the ground and before he can shift to his wolf form I jump on him and sit on him.Electric currents shoot through my body the minute we make contact but I'm too thirsty for blood to give a da
Aprils povWe cross the pack border and I feel all my connections with the pack dissolving. I look at Dylan and I know that he feels it too if the look of pain in his eyes is anything to go by.I look back one last time and some part of me feels sad because I've left the only home I have ever known and yet I feel excited because now I'm stepping into the unknown."Hey Dylan? What happened to the warriors you were with? " I ask him through the mind link." they were killed!"he says sadly." I'm sorry for your lose! " I pause " what about the other pack members?" I continue asking." they went into hiding once the attack began!" He says.After that we fall into comfortable silence.A while later: Its almost dawn and we've been running the whole night.
Aprils povWe were near a town and we shifted back to human form.Dylan Goddess bless his soul had packed our clothes and some money as well. He had packed all that in his back pack and carried it with his teeth while in wolf form.We changed and started walking into town.It wasn't very busy and we make our way to a motel." we should share a room so that it would be cheaper. " Dylan says out of nowhere." yeah! " I agree.We get a room and boy does it feel good to see an actual bed!The bed is well spread and the room to say the least is just plain boring and gloomy.It has grey walls, grey curtains,black tiles and a grey duvet. The bed is in the middle of the room and the room is an okay size.I mean what the hell is it with the depressing colours?
Aprils pov I wake up and instantly regret it.I have a pounding headache and it feels as though my skull will crack any minute now. A pair of hands are wrapped around my waist and a small smile makes it's way across my face.He didn't leave." Dylan? We have to talk!" I whisper." That we do!" He replies instantly.Really? He was awake this entire time?"What happened last night?" He continues." I felt guilty and sad at what happened! " I reply. I don't have the energy in me to lie." why?" He asks worried." IT'S MY FAULT THAT THOSE PEOPLE DIED! IF I HADN'T GOTTEN REJECTED, MY PARENTS WOULD STILL BE ALIVE. IF ONLY I HAD BEEN GOOD ENOUGH, I WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN REJECTED! IF IT WASN'T FOR ME YOUR FRIENDS WOULDN'T BE DEAD AND YOU WOULDN'T HAVE LEFT THE ONLY HOME YOU KNEW. ALSO, I KI
Aprils pov So far. The worst part? I have to leave this amazing creature behind who has grown to mean so much to me. What should I do? I know that there is strength in number but I don't want to drag him into the unknown. " April, for goddess sake! Stop thinking so hard! you are hurting my brain!" Dyl says. Wait, he can hear me thinking? " H-" I begin but I'm quickly cut off. " Our wolves have formed a bond, not the one you're thinking. The sibling bond. My wolf can't shut up about his adorable little sister which so happens to be your wolf!" He says. " other than that, are you okay?" " wow that is such a twist!... yes I am better but I'll never be okay... thanks for last night." I say. " what are big brothers for?" He asks and hugs me. " I'm glad you're bet
Aprils pov " April, its time" Dylan says." Gosh Dyl, I hate that sentence! Nothing good ever comes when you say that" I say."I'm sorry but we have to get ready and um..um.. you have to leave!" he says the last part with sadness and I glimpse a tear rolling down his cheek."Big brother? Please don't cry, it pains me to leave you behind ! But It hurts me more to see you cry!" I say and hug him." I know baby sis but promise me you will be careful" he says."I promise! Promise me that we will meet again on better circumstances!" I plead." I promise! Promise me that when the time comes when we meet again you will not leave me!" He pleads and holds me tighter." I promise!" I say and pull back.I go to the bathroom to freshen up.I shower within 5 minutes and put on my clothe
Aprils povIt's been seven months since that fateful day.Snow has been heartbroken and yet she has been there for me... she kept her promise.I haven't seen or heard from Dyl since that day too nor have I ever stepped foot in my old pack.The search for my parents continue and so far I have nothing.I'm a female rogue and well life as a rogue has its ups and downs. The only up I've seen is the freedom. The downs are being alone, no one to trust and being constantly on the run.I mean, I have Snow but ........... agghh just forget about it.Currently, I'm running through the forest in wolf form. Running against the wind feeling the slap of wind on my face and I can't help but think that there's no place I'd rather be.I let Snow have fun running around chasing butterflies while I sit back
Aprils pov" let's cut the crap. shall we? we all know that they are your parents!" He says wickedly.We? He and who?" Are they now? well, I just want info about them!" I lie.' Sure, Just go ahead and lie!" he says while taking a step forward." I don't have time for this bullshit!" I say and start walking away." Okay. Fine! what do you want to know?"he asks." EVERYTHING!"He throws me what looks like a file." Whats that?"" Your information!" And before I can blink he is already gone.Anonymus pov" How did it go?" I ask." I gave her the file and she denied being Matts and Eves daughter!" The rogue that I sent said.
