Chapter three
After we finished eating, I decided to tell them my story; after all, they had been very nice to me.
I cleared my throat and began, "I am from the Dark Moon pack; I was banished from my back because of shifting later and worse into an omega.” Tears were already falling from my eyes as I remembered all that I had experienced this week.
“What! What kind of stupid reason is this? They have no right to ban you on such an account." Lisa said she was boiling with anger.
“That’s true; I don’t think the council of elders will be happy to hear about this.”. Rose answered.
“Don’t worry, our Alphas will know what to do.”
Just then, two people entered the room; they were both about 6.2 feet tall and very muscular.
“Beta Jason, Gamma Alfred! Good morning.” Rose and Lisa greeted them with a little bow.
“Morning!” The Gamma replied with a little smile on his face.
“So how is the rogue doing?” the beta asked, stressing the word rogue.
I shivered at the sound of his voice and bowed my head down.
“Stop it, Jason; you are making her afraid. The poor girl has been through a lot already.”. Lisa scolds the beta, who has softened his looks now.
“Don’t blame me; if Xavier and Xiao were around, I doubt they would allow her to stay here.”. The Beta stated and then continued, “So as soon as she is better, I want her gone.”
“That’s not fair!” Lisa complain. “At least listen to her reason for being rogue before deciding what to do with her. And technically, she isn’t fully a rogue since she has just been one for two days only.”.
I like how they were talking about me as if I weren’t present there. Not that I am going to talk, though. An omega has no right to talk in the midst of high-ranking officials except when asked to do so. Stupid rules. I know. But that’s how it is in my ex-package.? I don’t know if the rules are also valid here.
“She was banished from her pack because she didn’t shift early, and when she finally did, she shifted into an omega.”. Rose imputed trying to support me too. I am touched by their kindness. They only knew this today and are doing this for her.
“What kind of stupid reason is that?” Alfred the Gamma spoke for the first time since he came into the hospital room.
"Well, if that is the case, then we will wait until the Alphas return from their journey next week, and then we will decide what to do with you!”. The beta said this while looking directly at me.
“Thank you so much, Beta Jason!” Rose and Lisa echoed.
The beta nodded his head and continued talking: “I will appoint a guard to keep watch of her; we might hear her story, but we are not sure if it’s true; for all we know, she might be faking it!”.
“But Beta, does she look like someone who can harm a fly? I mean, look at her.” Lisa stated this as she pointed at me. Honestly speaking, though, I look like someone a fly will hurt, not the other way around.
“It’s either that or she will be thrown in the dungeon until the Alpha returns.”
“No! The guards are okay, sir.” Lisa said as she saluted the beta.
Beta and Gamma turned to leave. As soon as Beta’s hand reached the door lock, he turned as if he had forgotten something.
“Where are you going to be staying?”.
“She can stay with me; I am sure John will not mind.”. Rose said.
“Okay, I will send it to the guards later on.”.
And then they left. I guess Gamma is a quiet person; he has spoken twice since they came.
“That’s easy!” Lisa said. “Are you okay?” She asked me and I gave her a small smile.
“So you will be staying with me; my house’s beside the hospital. All the pack doctors live near the hospital in case of an emergency. I just need to let John know”. Rose said.
John must be her mate I thought he was so lucky to have such a nice meeting. I let out a yawn. I am so tired and sleepy, but it would be rude of me to fall asleep when they are trying to keep me company.
Rose must have noticed my sleepy state. “You look tired. Get sleep; we will come back later, okay?”. Rose said to me as she hugged me and made her way to the door.
“Bye! See you later!” Lisa said as she hugged me and made her way out of the room.
A minute after they left, I went to sleep. I was exhausted physically and mentally.
When I woke up later on, it was already evening. I guess I slept for a long time. I can remember the last time I slept so peacefully. I usually wake up very early and go to sleep very late. I do all the domestic work in our house, and apparently everyone else is busy with their “beta duties.”. And although every pack leader was entitled to having an omega as a maid,. But my parents refused and said that I was able to do all the chores by myself. Such wicked parents I have.
“Yeap! They are very wicked!” A gentle voice said.
I shot up from the bed and stood up. Is it my imagination or did I hear someone just talk.
“It’s not your imagination; I actually talked!” The voice said again.
“Who are you?” I asked in a frightened voice.
“Am Aliyah”
“Who? Personally, I am very scared right now. I'm starting to think that this room is being hunted by a ghost or an evil spirit.
“Oh god! Why am I so unlucky in life? First I was banished, then I became a rogue, then I was attacked, and now I am having an encounter with a ghost.” I cried silently.
“Don’t be silly; I am not a ghost; I am your wolf!” The voice laughed.
“My what?” I asked, still in confusion.
“Your wolf, you dummy! Every werewolf has an inner wolf”.
“Well then, Aliyah, nice to meet you!”
“ you as well”.
And just like that, my wolf and I started gisting. At this point, I know that I can never be bored. Aliyah was very fun to talk to.
Lost in the moment, I didn’t notice that Rose had come into the room already. She cleared her throat, and I looked up and saw her big smile.
“Wow! What happened in the last five hours to make you so happy like these? Did you dream about your crush?” She said so as she raised her eyebrows.
“What! No! I answered quickly, blushing. “I spoke to my wolf for the first time.”
“O! That’s really good. Say hi to her”. Rose said
"Here,” Rose said as she passed a shopping bag to me. I thanked her and then took the bag and opened it. Inside the bag are innerwear, a toothbrush, and other toiletries.
“Thank you so!” Said to her.
“Hey no problem it’s fine, I have got to go. I have other patients to attend to.
