CHAPTER ONE.

The morning sun shone its glory into my closed eyes, piercing deeply into my visions as I was forced to open it. I felt a muscular arm over me and smiled deeply, but the smile soon turned into a frown as the smell of the man behind me hit me strongly. I turned sharply only to see Owen right behind stark naked, sleeping peacefully like a newborn baby who doesn’t have any problem in the world or worries at all. I would have fallen for his good looks and how cute he looked when reality suddenly dawned on me as I pushed his arm away from me with all my might and strength left in me. He moaned slightly, turning away from me as he continued his crazy sleep; I tried picturing how we ended up in the room but couldn’t couple the broken puzzle together to make a meaning, because the last time I could remember I was at a party with Stella, my best friend when I suddenly felt very dizzy and that was what I could remember. “How foolish” I cursed silently under my breath as my memory kept on failing me. I was still contemplating on what to do with this man right on my bed when the door opened ajar, making me stop breathing for a while. All the color drained out of my face as I suddenly turned pale seeing the person who stormed into my room. My eyes widened, almost poking out of its socket as my hand found its way to cover my opened mouth before my saliva dripped out.

I snapped out of my confusion and trance when I felt light flickering sharply in my face…. “Zoe, please let me explain” I begged, clasping my hands together. She laughed maniacally just the way she does before shaking her head sideways. “Who am I to listen to your explanation?” she asked as she took more pictures of me half naked with the crazy idiot who was sound asleep right beside me. “Please stop taking pictures” I pleaded weeping profusely as she continued the torture while taking more pictures of me while the only thing I could do was to cry while watching my whole life crumble right in front.

I tried getting up to get hold of her but couldn’t as Owen dragged me back to bed mumbling something that I couldn’t wrap my head around at all. Zoe moved closer to me with eyes full of hatred and burning rage with a smirk playing around the corner of her lips while showing me the pictures she had taken, getting me more pissed off… “Wait till I show the world your atrocious behavior” she said to me spitefully, using the tip of her brush my lips slightly earning a hateful glare from; well, that’s what I can do presently.

“You can try all you want, but let me tell you one thing, you will always be behind me no matter what you do” I said fiercely to her, spitting right into her face in disgust. I’m quite sure I touched a wounded spot on her body with what I had said to her as she slapped me hard right in the cheek. “Ouch” it stings me so badly that I continuously rubbed it while glaring at her. “Watch me as I ring you down, even if it cost me the last blood in my vein Meliora” with that she stormed out of the room while shaking Owen.

A little introduction of myself wouldn’t hurt, right? My name is Meliora Geum, the first daughter of Alpha Luke Geum of the Silver shining moon pack. My life has been soaring ever since my mum died when I was just four years old then, and I was left in the care of my stepmother Lily. My life worsened most when her daughter started growing up and always wanting everything I owned. My breathing alone pisses them off and the only person I could rely on was my father, who was always on business trips leaving his Luna, my own stepmother in the care of the pack, and his daughter because I was considered as a slave in my own father’s house, but what can a weakling like me do or say as all blames and faults will be pushed right on my head.

My joy knew no bounds when she proposed marriage to me when I clocked eighteen [18] years of age, I clearly knew she was only plotting ways of sending me out of the pack. If that will mean I will have peace of mind then I don’t mind. My dad tried talking me out of the marriage, but my mind had been made up already and there was nothing to do to change it. I was more focused on how to make him fall in love with me, at least to gain my ground in his pack. Two years down and my life is as if I’m in paradise, but now I guess my happy days are over.

“Hm what’s wrong?” Owen asked me, rubbing his eyes slowly, probably trying to adjust to the rays of sunlight, his voice jolting me out of my thoughts.

“How did you fucking get into my room dummy?” I yelled right in his face, pushing him off the bed, making him fall right on his butt very hard. I looked at him with anger visibly evident on my face as he winced in pain, but I couldn’t worry about it because my life was technically a mess because of him. Reality hit him right in the face as he hurriedly covered his body.

“What’s going on here?” he asked me with his eyes searching frantically for something I didn’t know in the room. “How did you get into this room? That’s the fucking question I asked you”, I yelled, once again throwing a pillow at him. I knew I was only bringing and venting my anger right on him, probably because I know he couldn’t do anything to me because he was as helpless as I am presently or whatsoever, but heaven knows I just wished all this was a dream honestly.

“Honestly, I don’t know” he shouted back at me, but that wasn’t the answer I actually hoped for or wished to hear right now. Our phones dinged at the same time as we both reached out to grab it and my eyes widened at the notification I saw. I clicked on it to view and all our pictures had gone viral… I clasped my hand tightly on my mouth as my stomach knotted up tightly, making me wince in pain. Before I could wrap my head about what was going on I felt my body go numb, and my soul was slowly drifting out of my body.
