Conquering Miguel

CHAPTER TWO

MADISON BLAKE'S POV

It's not that I can't fight back, I have been trained to become a blood guard since I was a child.

It's only a matter of seconds before I snap the neck of Beatrice, that fatty step mother of mine. In this pack, apart from the soldiers and other higher ranking officials, few can match my strength.

But I will never dare fight back, even when attacked by an Omega to avoid being punished. My father will definitely torture me with glee for any little mistake. He seems to blame me for the death of my mother. She had died while giving birth to me.

He made me the princess's blood guard, despite knowing how much she hated me. He watches nonchalantly, as she and her family send me on degrading and dangerous missions. Every blood guard is paid well because of the level of sacrifice and dedication it takes to be a blood guard, except me.

I'm never paid, neither am I fed.

I only have a few pairs of clothes and warriors' gears.

I'm left to fend for my meals, scrambling for leftovers even in the trash. Subjecting myself to the highest level of humiliation in the hands of everyone. But what can I do?

I can't exactly rebel or fight, I can only wait and pray the goddess gives me a mate that will take me out of here.

I will be turning eighteen in two days.

But my greatest fear is that I will be rejected, if my mate is from this pack.

Probably afraid of being stigmatized because of me. I pray my mate will be from the nearby pack.

Due to my bloodline, the mate bond will be strong and my mate can feel me from miles away, after I shift. I can only pray and wait.

****

I washed the plates and cleaned the kitchen before running towards the Alpha's palace.

My father has an Omega servant assigned to his house, but she rarely does anything. Except maybe, tending to Beatrice and chatting with her, and cooking when I'm away.

Most of the chores are left for me, despite the fact that I'm also busy in the palace.

I walked into the palace, walking towards the princess's division when an Omega servant stopped me.

"Help me take these to the kitchen" she said, dumping the two baskets of vegetables before me.

My eyes widened in anger, they're fond of doing this. Even when I'm in a hurry, everyone feels like they can send me on an errand. When their superiors annoy them, they find me to vent.

"Hey you! Can't you see I'm in a hurry?" I shouted angrily.

She stared at me from head to toe before hissing and walking away.

"Good for nothing" I heard her mutter.

I was angry, I felt like teaching her a lesson but I know that even slaves and pigs in the pack are all higher ranked and more respected than I am. Despite all my efforts and contributions to the pack.

I picked it up and angrily dumped it in the kitchen, ignoring everyone else before stalking to the princess's quarters.

I noticed others trying to approach me to dump their chores on me and pretended not to see them, walking very fast with a big scowl on my face.

I walked into her quarters and followed the princess's scent to her garden, where I saw her sitting with her attendants.

"Good afternoon, your highness" I greeted before she angrily stood up and slapped me.
