[Rose’s P.O.V.]
I had just finished washing a large pile of clothes and was about to dry them in the sun before heading to the kitchen to prepare dinner for the New Moon Pack members. At this moment, Sarah and her army of whores decided to rush over and knock over my clothes basket before pushing me to the ground.
“Hey, b*tch, I know you’re poor, but you shouldn’t have stolen my iPod.” Sarah shouted at me as she waved the white machine in her hand. “I just found this under the cotton wool in your room. You’re not only a b*tch, you’re also a damn thief!”
I had no idea what she was talking about. I didn’t even know that the white thing was called an iPod. Sarah was the daughter of Alpha Roger’s deputy in New Moon Pack, Beta Negan. She had a few friends who were like her and they had been doing their best to find fault with me. They didn’t dare admit that they weren’t as pretty as me. The men of New Moon Pack always harassed me or circled me, even though I was usually in a maid’s old clothes and never paid attention to them.
I looked at Sarah as she stood before me with a smug expression. The freckles on her face made me feel nauseous. “Sarah, no matter how you frame me, it won’t change the fact that you’re a big-breasted, brainless, and dirty wh*re.” I stared back straight into Sarah’s eye and her fist landed on me as usual. I didn’t want to be outdone so I spat on her face in response.
Then, the usual feeling came back, the feeling of someone looking at me from a corner.
My name was?Rose and tomorrow I would turn eighteen. Eight years ago, my mother, Luna Nancy of Southern Wilderness Pack, suddenly disappeared. Not long after, Alpha Roger led an army from New Moon Pack to attack us. My father, Alpha Austin, was killed in the battle along with our other pack members. The funny thing was that Roger’s massacre was considered legal by the Council of Elders because it was apparently in response to my father’s provocation. But I did not agree with this view because my father was a kind and upright person. I did not believe that he would send people to assassinate Roger.
My father did not tell me the reason for my mother’s disappearance. But after that, he hid me in a hut near the Pack’s private room and looked after me more strictly. During the massacre, Roger found me in the hut and tried to turn me into a wolf so that his soldiers could have fun with me before killing me. When I told him that I did not have one, Roger laughed and thought I was useless. He brought me out of the hut and that was when I saw the corpses of my pack’s members strewn all over the place. Then, I was quietly brought back to New Moon Pack.
For the past eight years, I have been a slave to the members of New Moon Pack. They made me do the dirtiest and most tiring work: cooking and washing for the pack. In their eyes, I was just a useless piece of trash living in an old utility room that was only a few square meters in size. I slept in a bed of cotton wool instead of a proper bed. In addition to being enslaved, the members of New Moon Packoften starved and beat me. Although I was not allowed to fight back, I never once gave in because they were not worthy. All I had for them was hatred. But the strange thing was that for the past eight years, I always felt that there was a pair of eyes staring at me whenever I was beaten and humiliated. I never knew to whom they belonged.
Another slap came at me. I was already used to this type of assault and didn’t feel much pain.
“Why did Alpha bring you back in the first place?! Such a detestable orphan like you should just die outside!” Sarah shouted at me and continued to swing her arm.
“Sarah, stop!” A commanding roar came and Sarah stopped.
I saw Alex walk out from a corner. He was the son of New Moon Pack’s Alpha Roger and Luna Jessica. Although his succession ceremony hadn’t been held yet, the wh*res were still obedient to him.
“Rose, go prepare dinner.” Alex turned to me as he ordered me to leave. It might seem as if he had just saved me but it wasn’t the case for me. Over the past eight years, he had beaten me many times too. He even tried to have sex with me after drinking, but I kicked him in the crotch and he gave up. I did not know what that thing was called, but the servants around me called it “the dick.” He was as much of a b*stard as his parents were, and I had heard from other servants that he had a perverted sexual fetish of torturing more she-wolves than anyone could count on their hands and feet. And yet, these women still went to great lengths to get themselves into Alex’s bed. I promised myself that if Alex ever tried to possess me, I would kick his dick as hard as I could.

I grabbed the clothes that had fallen out of the laundry basket and left under the angry stares of Sarah and the wh*res. Now that the clothes were dirty again, I would have to wash them again before I could prepare dinner.
I could feel the pain of the wolf inside me, Charlotte, who hadn’t been able to bask in the sun or speak to me in eight years. The last thing my mother, Luna Nancy, told me before she disappeared, was to hide my wolf and something else until I met the person I was meant to be with.
Although I did not know why my mother said that, I had kept my wolf and other things hidden for eight years. No one in New Moon Pack knew my real identity as the only child of Austin and Nancy, and the heir of Southern Wilderness Pack with the Alpha bloodline.
