My Alpha's Mark

— Kacie - 

My name is Kacie and I’m a slave to the Blood Moon pack.Today, I turned 18 and I didn’t miss the way he smiled at me when he wished me Happy Birthday.My dull brown hair falls down my back in chocolate curls.I have round blue eyes and a small straight nose.I don’t bother with my looks but maintain the bare minimum to make sure I’m presentable.My memories from before I came to Blood Moon are gone, my memory stretches back to the day he brought me here.

Alpha Ken Steward but I call him Alpha.He had short black hair, a massive build, and towered over me.

I grew up in his household, I knew the rules and I followed them to.I knew at an early age what would happen if I disobeyed him.I did everything I could to ensure I never broke any of his rules.I didn’t have parents.

Without memories, I couldn’t miss them.

There was only ever him and for all I knew, there would only ever be him.

My life was Alpha Ken, his daughter Diana, and this house.I dedicated myself to him and followed his rules.

It didn't matter how hard I worked or how well I did.

It was never enough.I was never enough.

Alpha told me how pathetic I was.I believed it and never questioned him.

His words built, raised, and made me.

His words made up the laws that governed my world and his anger was something that demanded my obedience.

It was only when I messed up that he graced me with his attention.

About two years ago, I noticed the look in his eye changed.I could feel his gaze follow me as I cleaned or when I would flit from one room to the other. I'd get this feeling in my stomach and I would break out in a cold sweat.

I wouldn’t let him see my tremble, I’d continue on with the task at hand and pretend to be oblivious.

As a kid, he’d hit me with a ruler when I did something wrong.

Over the past year, he would give m e tasks that were almost impossible to complete.

Sometimes he would give me a time limit and he’d smile when I failed.He would bend me over his knee when he didn’t like the results.

The embarrassment would wash over my body in waves but I’d bite my lip to stop from crying out.

My birthday wasn’t anything special and it went on like any other day.I was almost done with my daily checklist.I'd been vacuuming for about five minutes and I didn’t hear him come in.
