THE BROKEN ALPHA GODDESS

Prologue

VANESSA

No living being would ever expect their pain, sorrows, and suffering, to begin on any special day. Sadly this was my reality, and it wasn't just any special day. It was my birthday.

It was 6 pm that evening, I had been indoors all day, and my parents were out working. I was home alone with the nannies and maids waiting for their arrival.

I was turning five, and my parents had never forgotten my birthday, but that day they were late.

On an average level, nothing less would be expected from a billionaire businessman and woman, but I wasn't an average kid, I was the daughter of Lucien and Saphena Jordan, two most mysterious people ever known.

We lived amongst humans and Rogues; The other type of werewolves as my parents used to say. Our true identities were hidden from humans but we managed to live normal lives.

To the world my parents were elites, but to me, they were my role models.

Brave, strong, confident, and hardworking, I admired them so much that they seemed to be the only people to exist in my life. But that fateful night, I was disappointed that they loved their occupations more than they loved me.

Well, not until I heard my mother's melodic voice sing out the ever-known tunes

"Happy birthday, happy birthday…."

"Happy birthday to you."

"Happy 5th birthday Vanessa." My Mom and Dad squealed at my face, my Dad held a large decorated box and my Mom held a beautiful princess cake.

"You didn't forget!" I yelled excitedly, I rose to my feet in a swift motion, my eyes not leaving both the present and the cake.

"Yes darling, and we are sorry for making you feel bad about today, but it was all part of the plan. Daddy got you a lovely present."

My dad came and sat next to me on my bed, he pecked my forehead and placed the medium-sized box in my tiny hands.

I licked my lips in anticipation and tore the box open, my eyes came in contact with a dark metallic object, it resembled that of my Dad's Fiery Split Blade dagger, the one he uses in training. I reached into the box and took it out, running my hands through the thick and sharp metal, my tiny lips curled into a satisfied smirk.

"Oh, Mothers!!!" My Mom gasped so loud it startled me.

"Lucien!" Mom glared hard at Dad, her eyes asking the necessary questions.

"What?" Dad nonchalantly looked at Mom and back at me. "Vanessa, Daddy is giving you his very own dagger, I feel that you have come of age to have one, and mine in particular." Dad smiled, caressing my hair.

I smiled happily and held on to the dagger tight, it now belonged to me. For a kid my age, there would have been a serious outburst, but instead, I loved it, because I was no ordinary kid.

"Least I forget, I had a scabbard made for my princess. It's convenient to keep your dagger strapped along with you." Dad reached into the box and brought out the strap he was talking about.

"So cool Dad! Does this mean I get to join you and Mom when you practice?" I asked with hopeful glimmers.

"Yes my love, you can join us for practice as from now on…"

I didn't let my Dad finish, I excitedly added." And the bedroom practice is too right, I get to join that, don't I?" I asked and my parents passed each other a weird look and shook their heads in disapproval, Mom's cheeks turned red like she was stung by a bee.

I wondered why they refused but forgot about it when Mom placed the cake aside and took out a small decorated box from her black pants.

I had failed to notice my parents were fully dressed, and my mother was wearing her favorite Sunny yellow blouse.

"Essa, it's time for you to see what I got you." Mom took my hand in hers and placed the box on it. She looked at the box confidently and nodded at me to open it up.

I sat on the bed and opened the box, my smile died the moment I saw what she had given to me.

"Another bracelet?" I whined dropping the box on the bed, caring less about what I saw in it.
