♕Double Trouble♕

Chapter 1

NOT EDITED
💫Vanessa Michelson 💫
I've been staring at the ceiling since my alarm went off.

"Vanessa...", I hear my wolf, Stella, whimper.

She's weak right now, I can feel it. I haven't been eating for days, and sleep is hard to get now, but I'm tired too... tired of everything, tired of everyone.

I am Vanessa Michelson, the first daughter of Alpha Michelson of the Lunar Moon Pack. Even with this, it doesn't change much. I can't shift into my wolf since I'm not 16 yet, so it's hard to protect myself.

It's odd though, I've been able to have contact with Stella ever since I've started talking.

"Vanessa", I hear my wolf again. "What!", my reply is cold, I can feel what Stella feels, as guilt sprang through my chest, "I'm sorry..".

She quickly recovers, "It's okay, Vans, it's 6 am, we need to go down now, or else mother is going to hurt us again".

"She's NOT our mother", I retort.

To be exact, she's my step mother. I am the daughter of Elvira Storms, my father's real mate.

However, for some reason, she left after I was born. After that my father became depressed due to their distance from each other. He blames me for her leaving, to be honest, I blame me too.

After a few years, our pack began to have over dozens of rogue attacks, and since we didn't have a Luna, our pack was simply falling apart.

My father later on marked someone who wasn't his mate, Jessica Vanders.

She was my grandfather's Beta's daughter. Even being so, she always craved power and somehow she finally seduced the Alpha.

Before, she was extremely kindhearted and won everyone in my pack over, including me and my wolf, but now she absolutely despises me.

In fact, in this so called 'family',  I'm treated as if I was a lone wolf forced into becoming slave because of her.

My father doesn't seem to care enough either. Now, all he does is come home late at night, reeking of the smell of alcohol.

I guess the Luna really did hit jackpot, since the Alpha was never around much in the day. She is in charge and no one could stop her. She even dismissed my fathers beta, saying how no one can be trusted.

"It's her we can't trust", Stella snaps. When he comes home, he would call for me and if I refuse to come, he uses his Alpha's voice to his advantage and forces me down.

It's the same every night. He starts off telling me how much he loves me, then remembers my mother and abuses me until he falls asleep.

The scars on my body are enough to prove it.

I reluctantly climb out of bed. "One more day", I tell myself, "One more day until I find my mate, until I'm sixteen".

I rush downstairs and start to make breakfast. As I set it on the table, an irritating voice comes from behind me.

"YOU MUTT! WHY AREN'T YOU DONE YET!!?"

I dusted myself off, turning around as I rolled my eyes, I countered back with much hatred, "As you can see 'Luna', your breakfast is already made".

I rushed upstairs before she pulls anything.

"You're utterly crazy! She's not going to let that go", Stella states. 

"What did I even do this time?" I clenched my jaw at my wolf, knowing she's talking about my attitude.

I quickly rushed upstairs and got dressed, deciding to wear a black lace bralette with a denim jacket and washed out boyfriend jeans. I slipped on my black converse and put my dark brown hair up in a messy bun.

Looking into the mirror, and noticed my hair was cut shorter than it was yesterday. I was drowned in confusion, but realized it could of probably been when my father attacked me last night. I ignored it and went back to getting ready. I applied some concealer and mascara, automatically making my eyes look bigger.

Finally I topped it off with a classic deep red lip. Satisfied with my looks, I grabbed my bag and ran down.

"Girl, you're going to be late again, remember one more late and your going to land yourself a detention with Mr. Sawyer". Stella points out.

Man, as much as I love her, she's sometimes such a pain in the ass. "I HEARD THAT!" She rushed out, I chucked, "Exactly my point" blocking her out after that.

Prior to leaving the house, Luna Jessica called. I expected her to curse me for my outfit or maybe just remind me of how "wanted" I really am, however before I could establish the reasoning, she slapped me.

I felt my cheek tremble and burn from the pain.

"Next time watch your tone bitch", she spat at me. I felt burning tears well up in my silver eyes. Instead of replying, I walked out of the house.

"I'm sorry", I heard a beautiful calming voice in my head say, and this voice did not belong to Stella.
