Elena’s POV

“Mum, Dad, are you guys coming to the parent teacher meeting?” I asked as I descended the stairs to the dinning where my parents are.

Luna Jasmine, my mum was the first to roll her eyes in disgust like she always does, “Your father can as well be your escort. What is the joy of having an only child who is also a wolf-less Omega?”

No, not again. Here she goes again with her nagging like she always does.

Before I could say anything, Dad’s response cut like a knife, “I am not your father! Let your mother and the man she bore you to follow you”

“The man I bore her to? Is that coming from the man who sleeps around with omegas and pack’s humans despite my sweet pussy waiting for him always?” mum responded.

My dad, Alpha Veer McLancaster, the Alpha of Crimson pack dropped his fork with a loud thud that rang across the room making me panic with fear.

“Sweet Pussy? A sweet pussy that can’t give me a male child? Take her back to wherever you brought her from Jasmine because I know the goddess will never curse me to have a female wolf-less omega like her as an only child!”

This is it. Like they always do since I knew myself to be living with my parents, I was constantly reminded of the story of how I was born. A child who was anticipated to be a male child but turns out to be female, what greater nemesis could have befell my parents at this present age?

In our pack and from my knowledge of the outside world, females are born to bore children, they are just like bonus to any family that had them. It was considered that males are the most precious of all child which is why I was never my parent’s daughter.

They didn’t only hate me, they loathed the sight of me more than poop on the dinning table. Whenever I need my parents, they would always start an argument like this one without talking about other things than…. She’s a female child.

At school, I had friends most of which came from families that fauvism males. I was their nemesis, they never for once acted like my parents nor treat me as the pack princess.

My mother whom I expected to at least love her own child was the worst of all. Mum never smiled at me genuinely before. She had never had private conversations with me like a mother should for her daughter, even when I started seeing my menses, I was stood up by my mother who never cared about whatever happens to me.

At 20, I wasn’t made to know how to do any household chores. We had servants and maids at our beak and call out of which I learnt that breastfeed me when I was young. How much my mother must have loathed me.

My father is the main antagonist in my life. All he wanted was alliance with big packs and the only way he would ever get it was for her daughter to mate an alpha prince. Or if he had a male child, he would be the one to run the pack alliances.

“Don’t test my patience Veer! Elena is your daughter as well as mine!” Mum yelled

“Never!” He spat passively. “I am strong enough to have a son at my first try, you must have slept with countless men to achieve this I think?” My father asked mum with a sarcastic tone.

As she always does, mum would take the conversations to the naughtiest ones, “Really? You fuck me every single night for nine months yet she came out as a female shouldn’t you be ashamed as the alpha? Just accept your fate that your swimmers (sperm) are weak!”

I hissed lightly at this and turned back to go back upstairs. I don’t know what came over me that made me come to ask them when I had known that this is how they would both react.

“Stop there!” Dad’s voice stopped me which made me turn back perhaps he had something hopeful to talk about.

“Yes Dad?”

He walked up to me and pointed at mum with fiery eyes and commanding tone, “Never should you ever try to act like my daughter. You can never be mine! If you had became a boy then you would have been treated by the most expensive maids, but now that you have made your mother a laughing stock, never expect anything from me!”

This is it. He had said this again. I think I have heard this words from him for more than 8 million times now.

Without any reply, I dashed upstairs to my room. I can’t cry, I’m tired of it. I can’t sulk or scream, that’s what I have been doing all my life.

But as much as I tried to act strong, I can’t challenge the sadness that accompanied me to sleep that night.

~~~~-

I stood before my parents who were quiet the whole time.

For the first time as long as I could remember, mum came to wake me up specially for the impromptu family meeting which consists of only the three of us.

This is very strange, my parents were silent for the first time when I am standing before them.

After the silence seems like it ages, Dad cleared his throat and began, “Has any Alpha take interest in you?”

“No”

“Did you have a feel of your wolf yet?”

“No” I rolled my eyes at this question. Since when did he become so nice to be asking me personal questions? I guess they just heard a new abuse to dash me.

To my surprise, they were both silent before mum faced me, “Elena you know we will always want you to make us proud?”

“What has happened to you two? Why are you acting weird?” this is so confusing and so unlike them to be trembling before talking to me.

Dad walked up to me and hugged me which finally broke the last ounce of patience I have left. “Stop all these and cut to the chase to tell me what happened!”

“We have sold you Elena!” Mum’s words cut like a knife that seems to bore into my soul.
