I was about to sleep when my sister Lupa dragged me from the bed to the flooralong with my blankets .
What have l done this time ,she always finds ways to torture me ,as far as l knew she didn't do anything to upset her
"Lupa what's wrong ,"I asked already scared
"You mate snatcher,"she spat
"Mate snatcher ,what are you talking about ,"l asked
"Vera said she saw you trying to seduce him with your ugly smile ,"she spat venomously
Why would Vera say that ,she is just a kid where did she learn the word seduce
"l was just thanking him for helping me carry the wood,"l tried to explain
"that's not what she saw ,"she said unsurely .I'm sure a part of her knows I'm telling the truth
Father came in at that very moment with mother just behind his tail
"Girls it's the middle of the night ,what are bickering about ,"mother asked glaring at me as if l was the one who started it
"Brielle tried to seduce Philip today, "she lied
"what ,"mother exclaimed and hit me with a slap
"l swear l didn't do anything like that mother ,Vera just assumed,"l tried to beg
"So you're saying both of my daughters are lying ,"she asked with her brows up
"No that's not what I'm saying ,"l plead
"Then what ?,You know what l don't want to hear it ,leave this house and come back after you've learned manners "she said shocking me
"You can't mean that ,"l plead
"l mean it ,now leave my house l don't want to see you ever again,"she shouted
"mom,"l tried to beg
"leave when l wake up in the morning l don't want to see you here "she said
"Since you can't find your own mate you decided to seduce Phillip,you're a disgrace ,"she looked at me like l was disgusting and left
"I didn't ask for this,"l wanted to shout but it will only lead to more problems.
The one thing l learned about my mother is that if you try to challenge her things will end very badly for you
Father didn't say a word all this time ,it's like he was on mute . Sometimes l wonder if he is really my father
"Father please let me stay"l begged kneeling Infront of him
He didn't say a word as always .It's like he has been fed with a love potion.
He never opposes anything his wife says so l wasn't surprised but it did not mean that it didn't kill me inside .
Where would l go at this hour .We had no relatives nearby and even if we did no one wanted me in their house .
They saw me as a curse because of something l had no control over
He just left me on the floor crying.I knew they didn't like me but l didn't think they would support me being kicked out of the house
"Are you happy now "l said to Lupa
She just clicked her tongue and left .Then and there l decided to leave ,there was nothing for me here and l don't think anyone will notice I'm gone .l decided to take nothing from that house and left only with the clothes l had on .l wanted no memories of this place or the people l used to call family
l just walked without caring where I'm going .
Finally the sun was about to come out and l was so tired from all the walking so l decided to sit down .
I stumbled on a stone and fell down .One of my toes was bleeding so l ripped the hem of my dress to cover it up when l felt people around me
l looked up only to find the kings guards were surrounding me .
My heart started thudding and l felt beads of sweat on my forehead.
l wanted to get up and run but it will be of no use so l just sat there and waited
"What are you doing here young lady ,"one of them roared
l looked at the guard on my right side and saw him pointing his sword at me.
What if he kills me with that sword .l got on my feet so fast that l felt dizzy and collapsed
One of them poked me with something but l couldn't react due to tiredness
"We have to take her to the alpha,"l heard one say
"Yes let's do that our patrol is almost over anyway," the other one said
I heard all they were saying but couldn't make sense of it .
One of them threw me on his shoulders like a sack of flour and started walking .
I wanted to protest but l couldn't even move my arm or open my mouth to speak
We walked for a while then l was thrown on the flow like a bag of trash causing me to completely loose consciousness
