Found by the Lycan King

Chapter 1

Chapter 1 Being an alpha’s daughter is not all that it’s cracked up to be. Ask me, I know that better than anyone else. I, Zenovia Archer, was the daughter of Alpha Drake Archer of the nightfall pack. And, technically I should receive all the love and care of my father and mother. But, I don’t. That is because my mother left this world long ago. Being a b rd child of an alpha is no worse than being an omega, especially if your own father detests you. My father, Alpha Drake, had been in search of his mate for a long time after his first mate rejected him cruelly. My mother. used to love him and she was his chosen mate but when he found his fated mate, he left my mother without a second. thought. Because that gave him the chance to have a legitimate heir. My life turned upside down the day my father brought in his current wife and our pack’s Luna, Celeste. My mother and I were thrown out of our homes and sent to the packhouse to live with the others. Technically, my father had never given her the official title of a luna so she was just a mistress to him and me, an illegitimate child. My mother tried in vain to talk to my father, to beg him to at least return to her for the sake of his daughter, me, but it was as if he suddenly realized I was beneath him. My mother died of heartbreak, leaving me alone and an orphan in my own home. Luna Celeste and my stepbrother, Sid, left no stone unturned to harass me. My father blamed me for my mother’s death and everybody simply adored the new Luna because she was the fated one, the one moon goddess had sent to my dad after years of waiting. All of my pack members believed that fated mates were far superior to chosen mates. So, naturally, my life went downhill. from the day Luna Celeste set foot in our home…in my home. “Zenovia, where the hell are you?” Luna Celeste called out to me from the alpha’s residence, a lavish bungalow nestled in the woods, a bit far from the hubbub of the packhouse.

I was not allowed to enter the residence…which used to be my home..unless it was for doing chores or if Luna Celeste needed something.

I had accepted this life long ago. I knew that the life of a b d child was no sunshine and rainbows but the life of a rogue was even worse. Rogues were hunted by the werewolves and would always end up as s s or dead at the hands of alphas. Compared to that, I was relatively safe. “Y-yes Luna Celeste,” I dashed through the small room that was initially the broom cupboard that I called my home now. And I did not live alone, mice and c s gave me company on lonely nights. It was quite early in the morning and I had fallen asleep late while gazing out at the stars, talking to them as my mother believed we turned to stars after we left the mortal world. I found solace in talking to her while stargazing. “What time is it?” Luna Celeste asked angrily and I stammered, “It is s-six am, Luna Celeste” “And where are my running shoes and the refreshments? How many times have I asked you to keep everything ready before I go on a jog?” I nodded my head and rushed inside the large gym on the ground floor where Luna, alpha, and my stepbrother, Sid trained. sometimes. Luna Celeste had convinced my father that Sid was a kid of her and her fated mate who died long back so Sid became the rightful heir to the alpha title of our pack. And everybody believed her. Sid was opening the door from the inside when I dashed in and the door hit him in the nose. I placed my hand on my mouth and apologized profusely. “I am so sorry, Sid. I did not see you.” I spoke but he only glared at me angrily. “You did that purposely, didn’t you?” I tried to walk away from him but he blocked my way and stood smirking at me. I nervously looked at the ticking clock on. the wall and tried to speak, “Lu-Luna Celeste is waiting for me, please let me get her stuff.”

But Sid only looked at me coldly and held my wrist before pulling me close. They say a b d child is as good as an omega. And do you know what is the best quality of an omega?” He held me close and looked at me with a wicked smile on his face. Chapter 1 “B-but you are…we are siblings….” I tried to protest as he snaked his hand above my back and tried to push it down my jeans. “Stepsiblings.” He corrected me and added, “Come on, you are hot and I know you play hard to get but try to find ways to bump into me,” He added, undoing the buttons of my jeans. “What? I don’t do that! I look at you as my brother!!” I felt horrified and I pushed him away. He stumbled backward and fell on one of the gym equipment before I hurriedly got Luna Celeste’s stuff and ran out of the gym. “You are going to pay for this b h,” He growled as he held a hand to his forehead. A small bump was rising on it but I did not stay around him long enough to hear more of his threats. I had gotten used to his bullying and cheap acts by now. Wiping away the tears that leaked from my eyes, I dashed toward Luna Celeste who was glaring at me. “I…I am sorry for making you wait, Luna Celeste. I tripped and fell,” I lied to her. There was no other choice. I could not tell her that her son was a total creep. She would not believe me and instead, I would be subjected to more punishment. “You have gotten lazy as you do nothing but sleep and eat like a pig all day,” She angrily took the shoes from me and put them on When I stood meekly with my head down, she added, “I am going to have a talk with Alpha Drake about cutting your expenses. There is no need to fund your college tuition fees anymore.” “No, please don’t,” I fell to her feet and begged for mercy. She gave a smug smile as I desperately pleaded with her to not do it. Though I had to slog and work like a full-time maid here, being a daughter of the alpha, even if I was a b rd, allowed me some perks.

I was not enrolled in prestigious colleges where all of the alpha kids went to study but my school was decent. Of course, my being a b d child was a closely guarded secret of our pack. My father’s reputation would be tainted if word ever got out that he had a b d child for my mother was not his fated mate. And I did not mind it either. School allowed me to stay away from most of my pack as nobody went to that school. In fact, most of the kids who studied. there were poor kids who had nowhere else to go but wanted to study. Though the kids in my pack laughed at me for studying in the cheapest school, I was happy that I was allowed to study and could make friends there who did not know anything about my life back home. As most of the kids were kids of omegas or orphans, it was easy to lie about my lineage. I wore full sleeves to hide the scars and wounds I would get from the beating and would show up in school with a happy face. That was the only good thing in my life and I did not want that to be taken away from me. “Please Luna Celeste, I will do everything you ask. I will also never show my face again to you if you want.” I pleaded as tears spilled out of my eyes freely. I hated to be so weak, so vulnerable but I had no choice. There was nowhere. for me to go. My words only made Luna Celeste look at me with contempt. Her gaze hardened as she muttered, “That is the best thing you’ve spoken in a long time.”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
