Rejecting The Alpha Twins (Regan)

Chapter 9 Regan

POV

I feel the curious stares of the pack members as I walk inside the jack house, ready to start my work as an omega. My gait is slow due to the pain I am experiencing all over my body, from the whipping I received courtesy of my father yesterday. I grit my teeth as Luna Jennifer comes over to me, frowning as she glances down at my appearance. I'm wearing basic sweatpants and a loose flowing shirt, with sneakers and my haired up in a messy ponytail, the only thing I had been able to manage with my aching and throbbing back. "You could have made more of an effort with your appearance he mutters under her breath, looking displeased while I remain silent.noveldrama

She sighs. "At least it won't matter if you get dirty. I want you to go help in the kitchen, start by putting dishes away and washing them. That shouldn't be too hard she advises, shaking her head and walking away, without a second glance.

Great. Bending and twisting. That was going to prove to be painful, seeing as I had not fully healed from yesterday's trauma. try not to flinch at the thought and instead make my way into the large kitchen, heading straight for the sink. I put away dishes first, putting them into the right cupboards, grateful that the dining area is relatively empty. I shuffle back and forth. grabbing dishes off the table and stacking them neatly, before beginning to fill up the sink with water and dishwashing liquid. I move slowly, the other omegas all leaving me to my task or finding some sort of an excuse to leave, but I don't mind. preferring the silence and finding the solitude relaxing. As I began to wash the dishes, I heard footsteps behind me.

"Well look who it is" I tense at the sound of the familiar voice, feeling dread inside of me.

Isabelle. Not just Isabelle but Tegan was with her as well. I glanced hesitantly over my shoulder, shuddering at the look of menace in their eyes.I know they aren't just here to chat. I glance around the kitchen for help but there's nobody else here. besides me of course. I swallow hard.

"I'm just doing the dishes as Luna Jennifer requested," I said weakly, hoping that might be enough to dissuade them.

Isabelle flips her hair over her head, looking at Tegan deliberately. Tegan laughs out loud "I can't believe your stepsister has been made an omega, how embarrassing she sneers.

I don't have time for this. I turn back to my dishes, but Tegan gribs my arm and yanks me away, water sloshing onto the ground as I stare down at it in dismay. Now the floor is soaking wet and will need mopping.

"I can't believe they let the likes of you in the pack house, even as a lowly omega" Isabelle speaks clearly, as I stare at her, my fringe half covering my eyes so that I am partly blind.

"What does it matter Isabelle? Just let me finish my task in peace I begged.

Didn't she have anything better to do than torment me?

I didn't want to face Luna Jennifer's wrath if I didn't finish the dishes quickly enough, I was sure I would be judged on how quickly I performed the tasks I was given by the Luna. Isabelle shorted and glanced at Tegan, giving her some sort of signal, and Tegan disappeared behind me. I frowned, hearing the sound of water running in the sink

"I heard that you're never leaving this pack" Isabelle's voice sounds unhappy and downright cruel.

"No" I murmur, resigned "I'm not, are you happy now?" I shot at her.

"Happy? I want you gone" she declares heatedly, grabbing my hair and yanking it hard as I gasp in pain. "I don't want you anywhere near this pack or near my mates. As long as you are here, you are a distraction to the pack" she said, narrowing her eyes "and a liability. It would be better for everyone if you were dead" she declared, staring me directly in the eyes as though willing it to happen.

Tears fill my eyes. "You don't mean that?" I whisper brokenly, even as I know she does.

1/3

That's how everyone feels" Isabelle's voice is ruthless "They're just too polite to say it

I try to yank myself away from her, but she tightens her grip on the, causing me to struggle harder. She punches me in the stomach, and I double over gasping in pain. She leans in close, whispering in my car "I can't stand you, I hate that you're my stepsister. If I had my way, you would be left in the woods to die by a rogue attack."

1 blanched. Her tone was dripping with venom. I dimly heard the water stop running. Isabelle pulled my hair again, causing tears to come to my eyes. I just wanted this to stop. If I retaliated though, the consequences would be far worse than what she did to me. "Stupid little bitch" she hissed "I can't wait to become Luna and make your life more of a living hell than it already is

1 gave a low groan, just as Tegan came back over, nodding at Isabelle as a wide smile spread across her face. I barely had time to see it, before Isabelle grasped my hand, holding it tightly in her own. What was she doing.?

Tegan gave a loud giggle. "This is going to be good," she said, eyeing Isabelle with amusement, her eyes dancing with mischievousness.

"Isabelle, let go I tried to pull my hand away, feeling instinctively that something bad was about to happen, "let go" I pleaded.

"Shut up" she growled "god you're annoying" she huffed.

It almost felt as though she was crushing my fingers. Her strength was formidable, and she didn't even have her wolf yet. She was still fully human for now. No wonder Father preferred her over me. Her biological father had been a beta as well, hence. the beta blood she possessed. She dragged me towards the sink which was filled with water and dishwashing liquid as I stared at it, not comprehending what was about to happen. I tried to dig my heels in, but Tegan shoved me from behind, causing me to stumble forward several steps, almost slamming into the counter.

Isabelle moved her hand, and I heaved a sigh of relief, before she moved it up my arm, squeezing it painfully and forcing it

to move.

I let out a small sob "Stop Isabelle. You've had your fun."

She lets out a laugh. "Not yet I haven't."

1. up.

She narrows her eyes. I feel Tegan behind me. She drags my hand forward and then slams my hand into the water. My eyes widen in disbelief, and I open my mouth to scream, Tegan's hand coming over my mouth preventing anybody from hearing the muffled sounds as I let loose. Heat. Overwhelming, all-consuming heat covers my hand. I try to desperately pull

but Isabelle's hand keeps my hand firmly stuck in the water It's hot. So hot. It's burning me. Tegan had filled the sink with nothing but hot water. Tears trail down my cheeks as I try to pull away, my body pulling and twisting. It hurts so bad. I pant, thinking that I can't take any more of the pain. Just as I'm about to give up, Isabelle lets go and I yank my hand out, sobbing and turning the cold water on, placing my hand in the other sink and letting the cold water spill over it as Tegan laughs, letting go of my mouth.

"Look at her cry" Tegan mocked, peering at me and then wrinkling her nose as she saw how red and awful my hand looked. "Look how ugly her hand is now" she adds as Isabelle looks as well

"Just as ugly as the rest of her" Isabelle smiled cruelly and then motioned for Tegan to follow her, "Keep your mouth shut Regan" she warns, moving away from me "This is nothing compared to what's in store if you cross me" She widens her eyes and smiles "Or tell" I say nothing, heaving and sobbing. I can't move, I can't begin to describe the pain combined with what I was already feeling- I felt as though I was about to throw up. The girls disappeared. A voice from behind me speaks, sounding angry. "Who did this to you?" causing me to turn around, startled.

I take in his dark eyes and clenched jaw as he waits impatiently for my answer, his arms folding across his chest as he glares.
