After my father's death, when everything was in a mess, we were grateful for them to take me in. My mother, who was the current Luna of our pack, was tortured and banished. They killed me too if not for hiding my identity as a common wolf, Rivara aunty took me out of hell. After all these years, I was used to stay under their care and nurturing myself to become stronger until the Braid Moon Pack approached my mother four years ago when their Alpha heir just turned eighteen and needed to be with his fated mate, me. Despite the deal being the best for our current state, my mother left the decision to me.
“Madi, what you say, I will listen to you.” She patted my head, “There's no such thing nowadays that you need to be with a fated mate, alright?”
“Yes.” Hearing my mother's words, I was content and told her how I loved the twins.
The tint on my cheeks were the proof and the glittery eyes made me drift into their dream.
But soon they made me realise I was nothing but a plaything for them.
“Madison, we told everything on whims.” Eirel’s frustrated tone buzzed my ears till now, “You are not a child. Can't you distinguish between playing around and seriousness?”
Yes, after all years of enduring and waiting turned me to be their plaything.
Since I chose to live my life once again, I wouldn't be someone's bootlicker anymore.
“Mom, I want to choose what’s best for me.” I smiled, the dim light of the basement resembled the unknown hope I had now, “Moreover, didn't you say that the Alpha of Braid Moon Pack is pretty good?”
“Yes,” My mother sighed, “Since you decided, I have nothing to say. But before leaving, remember to meet Rivara Aunty.”
“Okay.” As soon as I hung up, my head touched the cold floor again, my pain stringed. When I checked, my wound was wide open and bleeding.
My phone vibrated again revealing Seth’s social post: [Find someone who can cook for you.]
In the picture, Eirel and Aron was cooking while she was flaunting the rose bouquet and ring they gave her. Looking at the ring, I recalled the hell day and quickly get rid of the picture, by blocking three of them.
Out of sight, out of mind!
I weakly got up and carried my body on the car before driving in dizziness. I could barely drag my body before flopping on the bed. I took care of my wound, bandaging in again. I shut my eyes and took a long sleep before I woke in a daze and found a message on my phone.
[Madison, where are you? Remember you still owe us an apology.]
[Fuck you and your apology…ಠ_ಠ]

The day passed since I drifted into work. Recently one of my books became a best seller and was selected for movie adaptation. But when I was looking for my documents, I recalled how I left them in the Clascliar mansion.
“Shit!” I grunted under my breath and decided to go there.
When I entered the mansion, I encountered Seth who threw some rotten tomatoes on my direction. Instantly, my white dress was dirty and smelly.
“Oh, you are here.” She feigned her innocence as usual, “Sorry I didn't notice. You are not angry right?”
Even after saying so, she still managed to throw some tomatoes again.
“Oops! I should have been careful enough.” I would have believed her playing dumb if it were not for the smirk on her lips which could not be covered by her gracious acting skill. I crunched my nose, feeling disgusted because of her acting and the foul smell.
Meanwhile, Eirel and Aron came here. If it were before I would have complained to them but now it was no use. Aron laughed looking at my dreadful state, “Madison, you finally got to know your place.”
Holding my chin tightly, he cursed, “You bitch, told me to fuck myself right?”
Feeling painful, I used my full force to move him away when his guava scent stringed on my nostrils.
When we were shooting daggers, Eirel held Seth’s hand, that green tea bitch, very carefully. As soon as he turned to me, his gentleness evaporated like morning mist, “Madison, you can't escape without apologising to us, you know?”
I knew very well what they were capable of. Because of them, no one approached me. When a boy dared to bully me, the twins beat the shit out of him. So, there was noone better than me, when it came to knowing them.
“Eirel, I am here to get some documents.” I said in an indifferent tone, “Can you please spare me now?”
“Some documents?” Aron mocked, “You are telling like you will leave after getting them.”
He threw a suitcase to me and chuckled, “Madison, it has your belongings but guess what? You don't have any place to go. Even your apartment is given to us.”
“Madison, your own mother doesn't want you.” He scoffed, “Think how jinxed you are.”
“Even when Seth is younger than you, she is always sensible.” Eirel ran his hand through his hair, “Can’t you just be like her and not cause trouble?”
I stared at them in disbelief. The more I didn't recall the old days, they made me do it.
When I first came here, Eirel and Aron held my both hands and dragged me into the large room of this mansion.
“Madi, you will stay here from now on.” Eirel blushed.
“Madi, you will be our queen when we grow up, alright?” Aron was straightforward as always.
But all that time, I saw the sincerity in their eyes which made me stay with them till now.
“It's time to leave.” I finally gave the last explanation to my wolf, who was sad and whimpering, not ready to let go of them even after everything.
I couldn't stay with someone who thought me a freeloader and bratty.
Aron kicked the suitcase again and shouted, releasing his strong guava scent, “Madison, listen, from now on you will stay in the basement.”
“I also removed you from the Assembly Member’s position in the pack.” Eirel’s voice was frosty, “Miss Madison, since you are my mother's dear, I let you go with this small punishment.”
“There's no need for these things.” I sighed, tired of all this drama, “I will leave soon.”
