The Soul Lifting Pack II

Coming back to take comfort in the kitchen felt so right, I had faint memories of mum cooking and that's how I knew how to cook what I could.

I put the spag to boil and started to chop and cut the ingredients for the sauce, once I was done I took two meatball packs and fried them (it's bought the same way you buy frozen meat). Just as I was mixing the Spag with the sauce, I felt a flick at the back of my neck.  .  . I froze in place

Turning to Beta Bright, I bowed slightly but I couldn't ignore the gleam in his eyes, this idiot was in a good mood and I was happy about it because that meant that I wasn't receiving much Bully from any pack member tonight, once the Beta is happy, it meant good news.

I watched him stride to the Alpha office and knew then that I should start to set the table.

Several minutes passed, Darlington and Bright came out of the office with Chrystal following suit, they were all happy... To say I felt relieved would be an understatement.

After they had taken their seats, I started to dish the food out alongside their favorite drinks to accompany the food while they continued their merry discussion.

After serving the food, I started to leave the kitchen and their premises. I heard the word Soul Lifting Ceremony.

                 *     *      *

Let me brief you on the Soul Lifting Pack and this Ceremony.

When I first got here, I was shoved into the pack house by one of the men who I came to figure out was Beta Bright, along with the Gamma known as Lutha.

As days turned into weeks and months went by, I started to notice that once in every six months, they performed a ceremony where other interested packs attended and the women would shift and run under the full moon while the men did the same but not after sparring with each other in human form.

As you have guessed, the ceremony only took place on a full moon. At first, I was enstranged to their customs but I soon got used to it because I was beaten after the ceremony ended and it lasted for five days.

During this ceremony, I got new thrown out clothes and other accessories, just to make me look presentable as a maid to the external packs. Then I was ordered to go back to my room after I had set the tables. None of the external pack members who attended ever saw me.

I remembered one Time when I had spoken to the Alpha to let me  wander around just to be familiar, I was beaten to a pup with kicks and punches. I usually had bruises around my eye and neck with a burst lip as evidence.

I made mental notes with myself never to ask or request anything from the Alpha because I was just a slave in their eyes.

During the Soul Lifting Ceremony every time, I was reminded of the fact that I wouldn't ever find my mate as I was always locked away.  I would probably live a very bitter life forever, never meeting my mother or finding a mate.

As you have guessed, I started vigorous cleaning of the house and washing after the ceremony was announced officially.  It just meant more work for me.

I went about my work, humming my mother's favorite words to me as a song. Even though I had forgotten how they looked like (my parents) or the road back home.   .   .

'*you are a a light

that's why I named you Starlight Baby,

you'll always shine Bright

and no one will ever change that*'

.  .  . thus, I have never forgotten my name. After these words.
