I looked down at my body to see that she had bandaged my wounds, which was a good thing, but the news shook me to my core.

I looked down at my body to see she had bandaged my wounds, which was good, but the news shooked me to the core, I didn't know if I should rejoice from the news, or I should cry. I was left confused , with no words to say.

“And my father?"I asked, waiting for the news.

“He is losing it, the wound was bad, his heart was ripped out, if not for his Alpha blood he would have died, your father rushed him back and the doctor is currently paying attention to him”she said and i hastily picked up a t-shirt as i wore it over my body.

As I rushed over to the door, it was pulled open from outside, as two men stood there.

“Alpha , calls for you”they said as the held me, and dragged me out of the room,i struggled against them,but they held me tight, as fear overwhelmed me, they wasn't a time my father didn't call for me, that wasn't trouble,he would beat me, threaten me, or punish me, all i knew it wasn't happy ending.

The sight of me had always displeased my father, sometimes I didn't understand why.

They entered an exclusive floor where only her father and brother reside, and soon after, they opened the door to her brother's room and tossed her inside.

Inside, the scene was horrifying; it terrified her. Her brother had several tubes connected all over his body, blood everywhere, and his eyes were shut, as a tube went through his throat, supporting his breathing.

"You… you did this! Your bad luck, I knew it, because he touched you, and now the curse has followed him. He is suffering because of you!" my father roared. I had never seen him like this, so broken, so torn apart.

In an instant he struck me as I fell to the ground, groaning in pain.

“Alpha , please!" I could hear his Beta's voice, his name was Beta George , unlike my father Beta George wasn't cruel, he didn't care about me, once when I was a kid, and when I was alone, it was him who fed me and took care of me, but as I grew older he kept his distance, as if he didn't want my father’s wrath to descend on him.

my father shook his hands as he went back to the bed which my brother lay on.

“In three hours, he was supposed to be on his way to the academy, and I doubt he will be up in weeks, his wolf is inactive, and he hands on the dread of death, what will become of our pack if he can't get to the academy!!"my father roared and my eyes widened.

The Academy, how could i forget, my brother had gotten an admission into the royal academy, a tough school only meant for Alphas, where they were trained, if one didn't go to the Academy it would be impossible to take charge of the Pack, the royals wouldn't allow it, if my brother couldn't go,another Alpha from another family will take his place.

"Alpha, we need to find a way to compromise, Alpha. I believe I have an idea," George said, as my father's eyes quickly snapped to him. In an instant, George was clutching his stomach, feeling the growl of my angry father bearing down on him.

"My family has ruled the Crimson Pack for four hundred years since its formation. I will not allow it to be taken away from my lineage, and now, I absolutely refuse to have his title stripped from me!" my father roared as he violently smashed the table.

"Alpha, listen to me, this could actually work. We still have time, please listen to me," George called out, looking at my father, who paused to turn and face his beta.

"I am hearing you," he responded, directing his gaze toward my brother.

"We just need someone who can take his place. Once he is healed, they can switch back," George explained, and my father grew even angrier as he stormed over to George, who stood his ground.

“What nonsense are you spouting,the registration has been done, there is no where, we can put someone in ,there is no where we can replace him”my father roared.

“No there is a way,”he said as his eyes fell on me, followed by my father. It took me a second to realize what they were talking about and my eyes widened, fear took over me, no , there was no where they were looking at me, no where.

"George, you are truly a genius, in fact, you are an absolute fucking genius," my father laughed out loud as he looked at George, who was still staring at me.

"No, father, I would be killed; the royal council could blacklist us for this. A woman is forbidden from the Academy, and we all know that," I cried out as he walked over to me. In an instant, he had me pinned against the wall, and I could feel my wounds opening up again.

"You should consider yourself lucky that I didn't kill you. Now, you are about to be useful to me, for the first time in your life, and you better not mess up. This pack depends on what you do now, and don't you dare run away or fail. I swear I will hunt you down. Not only will I not kill you, but I will also make sure you pay. So you better not fail, or I swear that whore Veala will pay with their life," he swore as he watched me, my eyes widening with horror at his threatening words.

My father had not just threatened me, but my aunt, he knew she meant the world to me, she was like my mother, and I would rather die than see her harmed.

And I knew there was no way, I was ever going to walk out of this alive.
