A SERVANT IN THE PACK HOUSE

“What do you think you are doing?!”

A harsh slap landed on Rania’s face. She curled herself on the cold floor of the dungeon. She didn’t make a noise, she stayed there and received the beating, just like she always did.

“You cause trouble for this pack!”

Beta Alaric raised his foot, he was ready to kick his daughter when he noticed she didn’t move. With a frown, he squatted down and brushed away the hair from her face.

She was still alive, breathing, but her eyes were dead. She stared at the far distance away, seemingly didn’t feel the pan anymore. This sight made the frown on the beta’s face deepened.

“Do you hear me?!” Alaric yelled at her, but she didn’t even flinch. “Rania!”

Someone entered the dungeon, and approached the beta. “My father summoned you to his office,” Caden said, he glanced at Rania, who was laying motionlessly on the floor.

Alaric sighed deeply and then stood up, leaving the damp dungeon and his daughter behind, while Caden stayed.

Once they were alone, Caden squatted down. He gripped Rania’s chin, and looked at deep into her eyes. “I told you that I will ruin your life. How dare you running away from your punishment?”

Her dull eyes shifted when she saw Caden, her parched lips moved, as she spoke in a harsh voice. “I didn’t know where is my sister. I have told you.”

“Liar!” Caden struck her face, so hard, Rania thought he snapped he neck.

Claire was Caden’s girlfriend. She was also Rania’s stepsister. She was five years older than Rania, and three years older than Killian.

The union between Caden and Claire should have been held a year ago, but a day before the union, Claire found her destined mate and she ran away with him, leaving Caden heartbroken. He turned the pain into violence, and needed someone to be blamed.

Rania was an easy target, since she was the pack’s black sheep, and also because she was the first person, who discovered that Claire had ran away.

Because of that, in Caden’s twisted mind, Rania must have helped Claire to run away. Ever since then, the abuse started.

No one dare to stand up against the alpha’s son, and Killian was more than willing to help Caden to destroy his stepsister, since he had been bullying Rania ever since beta Alaric had the union with his mother.

“Where is she?” Caden grabbed Rania’s front shirt, which tore it in the process. He closed his face to her. “You were going to escape to meet with her, right?”
