Serenity's POV
Once I started living in the pack house, that's when I began to endure physical, verbal and mental abuse from my so called fucking family and pack members.Now that I no longer had my gran there to protect me and my gramps, Ryker, having passed away when I was 10 years old in a Rouge attack.When I was 10, rouges and vampires attacked our pack looking for a special wolf they saw on pack lands once.My parents said there was no such wolf there.Little did my parents know was that the wolf the rouges were looking for was me.I got my dire wolf Artemis when I was 9. She started talking to me at 7, which in our pack, we start getting the ability to speak to our Guardians at a young age, the youngest being 5.Artemis is all black with a purple triple moon symbol on her forehead. I shifted at 9 due to a single Rouge finding me on neutral territory on my way home from school, who tried to kill me.Artemis shifted to protect me and killed the Rouge that attacked us.I blamed myself for my gramps death as it means I should of been more careful when I let Artemis out to run, if the rouges hadn't seen me then I wouldn't of lost gramps.16 years old:After losing gran to biocan, school became a living hell for me.Our school, Black Moon high, was used by 3 wolf packs and was on neutral territory between the Black mist pack, Deadly nightshade pack and the Knightlock pack.My brothers and the pack made sure to let the other packs know that I was hated by them and that they would not stand up for me or protect me.My biggest tormentors were my brother Statham, his best friend Jayce, future alpha of the Black mist pack, their friends Ryder (our future beta ) , Liam (future beta of the Black mist pack), Nate (future beta of the Knightlock pack) and Jonah, who is future alpha of the Knightlock pack.They call themselves the Savage Six.I also can't forget Stacey and her group of bimbos Casey, Lacey and Macey.So much happened that 1st year. Stacey and her bimbos constantly tripped me, belittled me and called me names.The one incident that stands out to me the most was half way through the school year. It was last period gym class, as you can guess if teams were to be chosen it was everyone against me.This particular day I had been distracted by Statham's friends Ryder and Liam, they were tormenting me about how ugly I was, how fat I was, how I am hated for being me and so on.My brother and Jayce had grabbed my drink bottle and put some wolfsbane in it, not enough to kill me but enough to hurt me.Half way through class when I went to get a drink, I noticed everyone watching me, which isn't new anyway but today they seemed more focused on me than normal. I brushed it off as me being paranoid. Biggest mistake I made.After getting a drink and heading back on the court, around 5 minutes later I noticed that something wasn't right.I started of feeling dizzy, then I started sweating and became clammy, then I was hit with intense pain through my body.Everyone around me started laughing at me, while it felt like my body was being burnt by acid from the inside, I felt Artemis become weaker and I wasn't able to reach out to her, all my senses became dull and I felt like I had just gone 15 rounds with the pack's warrior champion.I knew straight away what they had done to me. I couldn't believe they would do this. When my body finally became to weak from the wolfsbane, I collapsed on the floor barely able to move.My brother came over to me,"Look at what a weak, pathetic fucking disappointment you are! You are a fucking disgrace to our family and pack, not to mention a fucking poor excuse of a werewolf!" he yelled at me.I didn't reply to him as I knew it would make the situation so much worse, and without Artemis present I wanted to minimize the damage they were going to inflict on me.I laid there used to the verbal abuse from him, then Statham and Jayce started kicking me in the ribs and the stomach, and I knew then this was going to be the worst beating I had ever received.By the time they finished their assault I was barely conscious. Stacey then walked up to me" You should of died the day you were born, none of us want you in the pack, your family hates you, you are a vile, disgusting fucking little whore who doesn't know her place or the fact that she's not wanted! I hope die soon you fucking loser." she spat, then hit me in the face with an metal baseball bat. My vision went black and the last thing I remember is was everyone laughing and the gym teacher, Mr Carter, yelling at everyone to stop playing with trash and get back to training.When I came to I had been moved outside and left there. I carefully got up and looked around.It was late now, the moon was high in the sky and I knew when I got home that I'd be in for another beating.I could just feel Artemis so I knew I still had wolfsbane in my system. It took me nearly 2 hours to get home, which normally takes me 15 minutes when I'm not in bad shape like I am now.I walk into the house and head to the kitchen so I can get to the basement.As I enter the kitchen a plate explodes on the wall right next to my head.I look up to see my parents standing at the sink extremely angry and my 4 brothers all sitting at the table smirking at me enjoying the show."Where the hell have you fucking been Serenity?!" my father, Lucan, yells at me."Wolfsbane was put in m-my drink bottle in gym today, I was then attacked when my wolf was to w-w-w-eak to heal me. I was knocked unconscious and left outside the s-s-s-school. I came to about 2 hours ago and w-walked home as quick as I could, but due to my injuries and my wolf not being back to heal me, it took longer than normal to get home, Alpha" I said lowering my head to him in submission and pure fear."I don't care for your excuses you little bitch, you know you have to be home at a certain time and that's final. Considering you like to keep disobeying my rules and keep disrupting the other kids learning with your bullshit, from now on you will be home schooled by one of the omegas here and once you work is finished for the day you will cook dinner for the pack every night.If you don't obey me, your punishment will be the worst yet. Now get out of my sight, you make me sick! " my dad yelled at me.I lower my head and go to the basement. I make it down to my room and break down and cry.I haven't cried since my gran passed away, but the way they are treating me is becoming to much for me.I don't know why they just don't banish me, I'd prefer that to living like this.I'd even prefer they end my life at this point as it would be better than the hell I live everyday.Once I've cried all I can I lay down and sleep.Serenity's POVAfter that incident 2 years ago, my dad, Lucan, stuck to his plan for me and I was home schooled and made to cook from that day onwards.In 2 years the shit I cope from the pack hasn't changed and I am honestly reaching my breaking point.I have had nearly every bone in my body broken multiple times, I've been beaten so badly I've nearly died 5 times, I've had internal bleeding, fractures, concussions, a punctured lung, contusions, I've been whipped with a silver whip 2 times for talking back to Alpha Lucan, I've been given wolfsbane 3 more times when I became "unruly", I've been locked in the cells for weeks on end, the list goes on of the torture and abuse I have suffered. I am sick of being abused, yelled at, pushed around, used as a slave ect.I turn 18 in a month and Artemis and I have decided that we're going to runaway from the pack, as we don't deserve to be treated like this.I need to wait till I'm 18 as if I try leave before then and I get caught by any other
Serenity's POVStatham dragged me down to cells after my mother yelled at me."Why the fuck do you have to be so fucking stupid for?" Statham growls as he pushes me down the stairs.I tumble down the stairs hitting my shoulder hard at one point, till I hit the floor hard at the bottom.I sit up groaning as pain shoots through my shoulder. I'm pretty sure that there is now a fracture in my shoulder blade, adding to the busted lip and my left shoulder that is pulled out of the socket, I'm doing pretty good tonight. Not to mention the healing injuries I had before this happened. Statham pulls me up off the floor and walks through the dungeons. "Statham, I honestly didn't know I wasn't allowed there, no one ever told me there were places in our territory that were forbidden to pack members or forbidden to me" I say while walking to my cell. "Maybe you should of just stayed inside out of sight where you belong. None of us want to see your pathetic face, we all hate you Serenity." Statham
Serenity's POV"This is fucking bullshit and you know it. I never attacked the Luna. After I was thrown in the dungeon last night after getting in trouble for going to the waterfall, one of you or the Luna herself inflicted those injuries because there is no way I could of done it with a dislocated shoulder, a fractured shoulder and having my head slammed into the cell wall. I was already injured before seeing you from beatings from the Savage Six earlier that day." I yelled.The pack gasps in surprise, outrage and a range of other emotions, because I have just disrespected their Alpha with the way I spoke to him."Watch your tone with me Serenity, I am your Alpha and you will NOT disrespect me. You will receive 25 lashes every 2 days now instead of 20 and on top of that you will be chained in silver cuffs while this happens so you won't heal as quick. One more outburst and I will kill you right now." my father replies to me angrily.Lowering my head I say "Yes Alpha". My brother Sky
SERENITY'S POVI wake up and start looking around to get my bearings. At first there is only darkness around me, then everything starts moving like when you turn a kaleidoscope, when I'm suddenly sitting on the soft grass next to a beautiful lake with mist hanging over the water in a valley filled with trees and wildflowers and benches next to the lake. I feel a nudge to my right hand I look down to find my wolf laying next to me. I lift my hand up and she puts her head in my lap.I gently start stroking her head while I just sit there and listen to the peace and quite.I feel calm and at peace wherever I am. I feel no pain, fear or any other negative emotion I normally feel, all I feel is absolutely peace.I look down at my wolf's head in my lap "where are we Artemis? Why don't I feel any pain" I say to my wolf."She can't reply to you here, my child. She's not a part of you in this realm." says a soft and very familiar voice.I turn around so fast and there is my gran sitting on on
SKYLER'S POVIt's the middle of the night and I have snuck into the pack hospital again to see my sister Serenity. It's been nearly 2 months since her punishment. Watching Sutton deliver her punishment was truly disturbing. I have never seen something like that before and it will stay with me forever. You could tell he was enjoying it and was taking pleasure in the way he hurt her.Looking at her laying on the hospital bed with her back looking like someone attacked it with a meat cleaver makes me furious and distraught at the same time.I wanted to step in and stop Sutton but I knew if I did then I would have been punished aswell.I gently hold my sister's hand and just pray to the moon goddess she will be ok.Since I was old enough to understand, Stephan and I have been raised to hate Serenity. We were told that she was evil, that she tried to kill Statham when they were little, that she stole Statham's right to be the future Alpha and she also got our older brother Stryker killed d
UNKNOWN POVStanding in my office window, I watch my warriors train. Being the second strongest pack gives us a bigger target for rouges, other packs, and different supernaturals that try to take us out as they want to try to make a point. They never succeed as my warriors are well trained, and I like to make sure my warriors are ready for anything. "Alpha Brennon, Blake's mate Briella has had a vision and said she needs to see you immediately." My beta, Kane, mindlinks me."Bring them up to my office, and you join us too," I reply."Yes, Alpha," Kane replies.I keep watching my warriors till I hear my office door open and my Beta, Gamma, and his mate walk in.Gamma Blake's mate Briella is a witch, and she will get visions.When she gets them it's normally something very important.Turning around, I gesture for them all to take a seat. Once seated, I turn to Briella, "What was the vision you saw Bri, is the pack in danger?" I ask.Bri sits straighter and says to me "No Alpha Brennon,
SERENITY'S POV BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP....As my hearing slowly returns to me I can hear the beeping of the machines near me. I try to open my eyes but they feel so heavy.Just laying there listening to my surroundings I can hear what sounds like muffled sobs and someone holding my hand. I stay perfectly still and keep my heart rate steady and breathing even so that whoever is there doesn't realize I'm awake yet.I try to see if I can find out who it is by their scent without drawing attention to me.I gently breath in through my nose and get the scent of the person in the room with me.I get the scent of sandlewood and linen. Why is Skyler in my room? I keep laying there hoping he might say something so I can figure out why his here."Serenity, if you can hear me I just want to let you know that I am so sorry for the way everyone has treated you, myself included, I never wanted to treat you like this but I had no choice. I was told if I didn't I would be treated the same as you. I just
SERENITY'S POV3 MONTHS LATER........The last 3 months have been absolute hell. Sutton has not been lenient in any way, shape or form. Normally he adds extra to my punishment especially if he has had a bad day.I don't know what my backs like and I really don't want to know.The silver cuffs and collar were removed last night so I could start healing.The only reason they want me healed is because on the weekend Statham and Jayce are having a massive party because both of them will be 18. Statham and I turned 18 when I was in a coma. Jayce turns 18 on Friday so Saturday they decided to have a massive coming of age party. Both packs will be in attendance along with the Knightlock pack aswell.That way there is a better chance of them hopefully finding their mates.I honestly feel sorry for anyone mated to any of the Savage Six.I hadn't even thought of the fact I was 18 now since I woke up. I honestly hope my mate isn't in any of the 3 packs in this area as I know they will either rej
