Spurned Luna's Return: On Your Knees, Alpha Chase! novel Chapter 1

"How dare you insult my sister? You have a death wish? You child of a bitch!"

Pa! Pa! Pa!

Three loud slaps hit a smallish, skinny, tanned, black-haired girl. She fell to the floor from the impact and quickly knelt, despite the stinging pain she felt.

"I'm sorry. I'm very sorry. Please forgive me. I'll never do that again." she begged with her face to the ground.

Her clothes were ragged and faded. Her hair was tangled with dirt in it and covered her face.

Her whole body was covered in cuts and bruises. Some scars that had barely healed from last night's beatings had been reopened.

How painful were they?

She hadn't eaten since yesterday afternoon and now it was almost evening. She was already super weak before taking this beating.

"Please have mercy on me. I was stupid. Please, have mercy!" she cried in a hoarse voice.

The person who beat her was the gamma's son, William Woods.

He was just one of the many pack members that beat her up either for fun or to relieve stress. She is a punching bag to them. Some just used lame excuses to hit her.

She could not resist. She had nowhere to go and wouldn't survive outside the pack, as she'd become a rogue.

She has been here for as long as she can remember. She isn't a member of this pack. How did she get here then?

Let me tell you a little history.

"Lavana, hun! Come.get your food." a brown-haired woman called out from.the kitchen.

"Yes, mama!" a little girl of around 4 with black hair ties into two small ponytails, as her hair was short, ran into the kitchen and hugged her mum's left leg.

"I can't wait to eat your food. It smells so good." the little one said.

"Hmmn! I'm not sure you like it. My princess must be pretending." teased the mother.

"No, no, no! I'm dead serious, mama. Let me show you my sincerity." the little one stopped hugging her thigh and retreated 7 ft away from the mom.

"Watch this lady!" she said and started dancing.

"Whoa! Mama sees your sincerity. Come, let me hug the princess." the mum squatted and spread her arms.

Lavana ran straight into her arms and placed her small hands around her mom's neck.

"I love you, mummy!" she giggled.

"Yeah, my Lavana loves me best."

Suddenly, there were sounds of shooting along with howls.

A yell was heard.

"Warriors, the pack is under attack."

The mom trembled in her heart but tried not to let the girl see her worried.

"Mommy, is there trouble?" Lavana asked.

"Not a big one. Just some flies. Don't worry, daddy and the other strong warriors will drive them away from here. It will be a piece of cake. Now why don't you hide in the secret room while mommy goes to watch the battle. I promise you, I'll gist you all the interesting parts." the mom said.

"Ok, mummy." the girl broke the hug and her mum gave her the food.

"You'll have to eat it in there and here... you can play games on my phone to kill time. What do you think?"

"Mum, I'll play Candy Crush and then Princess dress up."

"Alright! Anything you wanna play, you can."

"Can I dance too?"

"Yup. But make sure the music isn't loud." her mum cautioned.

"Okay mummy." the little one nodded and her mum pecked her forehead.

"Let's go!"

After hiding the little one in the secret room underground, the mom braced herself to go out of the home.

"Brandon, my love, I'm sorry, but I can't leave you out there all alone. I'll have to disobey you this time." she said as her eyes turned grey.

She transformed into a black wolf and ran outside.

She saw that their side was on the losing side. Her husband had been killed along with the others. Only a few were still fighting but they were injured badly.

She shed a tear and her eyes turned red.

"I might as well take you down with me." she rushed at the intruders and started killing many of them. But one of them was able to bite her neck.

She fell to the ground and transformed back to human. Her hair covered her face.

She looked at the intruders who had also returned to their human form.

"You won't get away with this, Alpha Blake. The retribution wil come to you. I swear." she yelled.

"Shut her mouth. The air isn't fresh anymore." said a bulky man with red hair and green eyes.

"Yes Alpha!" one of the surviving intruders, the winning Alpha's subordinate, replied.
