Unbroken by Anai Gomez (the little red hen read aloud TXT) 📕

 They were all gone and the only one left was a vampire. I didn’t like his kind but no one deserved to be sold so I went to get a leash and put it on him. He looked around my age, deep orange eyes, light blond hair and perfect pail skin.

At that Blake Cole, Alpha of the Bloodmoon pack, walked in with his beta and four more werewolves. They didn’t have collards so all I had to do was put them to sleep. They hadn’t seen me yet since I was going too fast for even them. I stopped right next to them, getting the vampires leash.

What the hell just happened?  I herd his Beta, Drake say.

I have no idea. They both turned to look towards me and that’s when Blake’s wolf started to call me his mate.

Seriously how many mates can one girl have? I could fell his eyes undressing me but I refused to acknowledge him. I had to wear clothes that left little to the imagination. Anthony and Hunter walked in with the cases full of money. Anthony handed me my sweater while they passed me to put the money on Clayton’s desk.

“Nice doing business with you Clayton.”  With that I turned and left.

Follow her. I heard him tell his Beta once I left. Anthony and Hector came behind me carrying the four Bloodmoon members.

Take them home gays. I’m going walking.

I got my bag out of the limo and started walking home. I started to take out napkins to clean off all the makeup. It wasn’t really working so I decided to stop at the river on the way home.

“I can see you following me. Why don’t you just tell your Alpha you lost me and head back to him?” He appeared next to me seconds later.

“Sorry, those were direct orders. So what’s a pretty lady like you doing walking in the night on a full moon? Haven’t you herd it’s not safe vampires around these parts.”

 “Actually I have but you see I’m not a vampire.”

“If you’re not a vampire then what are you because I don’t know another heartless creature that kills without flinching?” Really, he sells a human bean and we’re the bad gays.

“That’s big talk for someone who sold his own kind. I mean I didn’t know them but you probably did and I didn’t kill them.”

“No your right it was the invisible person next to me.” He has no right to be mad. Just to mess with him I turned invisible, walked to the other side and tapped his shoulder. He looked around and saw no one.

I came close to his ear and said, ”You have no idea.” He jumped five feet away from me and I couldn’t help but laugh. I appeared to him laughing at the brink of tears. “You should have seen your face.”

“How did you do that?”

“Like I said, I’m not a vampire. Now hurry up, were late for dinner.” I turned and ran to my house, making sure to run slow so he could catch up. Once we reached the border to my property, he slowed down. “What’s wrong?”

“I’m not allowed on these land, unless given permission.’

“Well I’m giving it to you. Plus you’re supposed to be following me. You think your Alpha will be madder if you cross that border or leave me. Your choice.” He was having an internal conflict in his mind so I decided for him. I graved his hand and didn’t let go till I reached my front doors. “Welcome to the Mansion McGuire. Were I’m currently late for dinner, thanks to you. Now come on, your friends are on the other side.”

I opened the door for him. He was in awe to all the stuff we had. I went with a medieval look when I designed the whole house. “Just follow the voices I got to go take a shower.”

I went to my room and stripped out of my clothes. From my pant packets, fell the key for the vampire collar. I hadn’t realized I still have to the collar on him. I took a quick shower and got rid of every inch of makeup. I quickly got dressed into my pajamas.  

I walked to the dining room to find them all waiting for me. We usually don’t eat till everyone’s seated. I walked in with the keys of the collard and an obsidian knife.  I walked straight to the vampire and said stand up.” At first he hesitated since I had an obsidian knife. He got up slowly. I went to take off the collard and he flinched. “Don’t worry, I don’t bite… hard,” with that I took the collar off. “Sorry I forgot I took the key with me.”

“It’s fine master.”

I grabbed his face with my hand, to make me look in my eyes. “My name is April not master and starting know you are no longer a slave but my friend.” I turned and looked at everyone. “You are all know part of this family and will be treated as such. Know eat you must be starving. “

In front of him was an empty wine glass that I grabbed. With the obsidian knife, I cut my veins and let the blood drip into the glass. “I’ll have Dr. Vasquez get some blood bags for you tomorrow. Once it was full I licked my cut so it can heal and sat next to him, even though there were more empty chairs. Everyone ate in silence till I had enough.

“So tell me what’s your name and story.” I said turning to my new friend.

“Um… My name is Max. I was born nineteen-sixty-five and was turned at age twenty-five. Twenty years ago I fell in love with the Alphas mate. She was human and didn’t even know about our kind. We were together for a few years but when the Alpha knew she was his mate, he took her away. Even after everything she still chose me. Her mate was enraged, said I didn’t deserve death so he sold me into the slave trade. I’ve been a slave ever since, well until know I guess.” Everyone just stared at him with no emotions. I knew most of them didn’t care since he was just a vampire.

“Why is it that love always seems to dumb us in the end…  My name is Red and I’ll protect you from now on. I am currently seventeen and plan on taking the role as Blackthorn’s pack Alpha, once I turn eighteen. My mother’s name is Samantha Blackthorn and I plan on getting back what life once took away from her.

Tomorrow a tattoo artist will come and get you inked. The tattoo is the same one my mother had and means warrior. It must be shown at all times or one of the packs will think you are a rogue. Once you are all inked, you will all go shopping for new clothes. You can buy whatever your heart desires.

You will each get your own room and car. You will start training and attend school here. Everyone will get their own phone and is required to carry a weapon at all times. The packs here will leave us alone but that still leaves hunters, vampires and other rogues.

Our property is also left alone. None of the other packs dare to come on it. The Bloodmoon’s Beta sitting next to me is the first to do so. You are all safe here and will be for as long as I live. Know I’d like to make a toast,” I said as I raised my glass. They all did the same and I continued to speak. “To the new members of the McGuire family, you are all now my brother and sisters. CHEERS!” They all tapped on each other’s glasses. They were all so happy to be free; some even had tears of joy.

The little girl around Tommy’s age got up and ran to hug me I put her on my lap. “Thank you so much. Can you be my new mom? My old one died.” I felt so bad for her. I know what it’s like to lose a mother but she was so little.

“What’s your name?”

“Rose but my mommy use to call me Flower.” Rose had curly blond hair, light green eyes, freckles on her nose, and her two front teeth were gone making her look adorable. She was wearing one of my shirts that fit her like a dress.

“Rose I’ll be glad to be your know mom.”

“Really! Can I call you mommy too?”

“Only if I can call you flower.”

 “I’d like that a lot mommy.”

“But I don’t want her to be your daughter,” Tommy said from across the table.  Little Rose smile dropped. If I didn’t love him so much I would back hand him for that.

“And why not?”

“Because she’s too cute and I don’t want to be her brother.” He folds his arms in determination. Everyone in the table started laughing. I could see Rose blushing from here. Leave it to Tommy to try to make every girl his girlfriend. I don’t even know how many times he’s asked out Brook or Kim. At least Rose is his age.

“You don’t have to be her brother but I’m going to be her mother.”

He just gave me this cute little grin. He really needs to stop hanging around Hector. ”Does that mean I can share my room with Rose.” I would chook him but he’s too cute. Rose started to giggle. The poor thing is going to be harassed every day.

“Nope,” I said popping the p. “I already told her she can have her own room, plus you always sleep with me.”

 “Yeah but Rose is way cutter than you. Plus your too old for me mommy.” I just nodded my head in disapproval. Me old, whatever. Everyone started laughing even harder.

“Speaking of rooms, Anthony do you and your mate want to share so I don’t have to kick Hector out with his parents?” I could see the girl right next to him blush. She was imagining them both in a room, god that’s going to get annoying. I tried to block her out but her thoughts were just too loud. Anthony just got this huge grin. Poor girl didn’t know we could hear her. The house only had fifteen rooms. The first five members of the Blackthorn pack live with the Vasquez. Their house contains a total of eight rooms.  “What am I saying, of course you to will. So what’s your story?”

“My name is Crystal. I’m sixteen and Rose is my little sister. We grew up in a happy family until my mother died a month ago. My father said we reminded him to much of her, so he sold us. He’s probably getting drunk at a bar about know.” Her green eyes looked like they were fighting back tears. She had natural straight, blond hair and a heart shape face. She looked cute next to Anthony. She looked like the sweet quite girl. I think that will go with Anthony’s over protective self,
