KATHERINE

"I, Alpha Xavier of the Greyhound Pack rejects you filthy omega as my fate." He grunted leaning into my face and squinting like he wasn't seeing my face properly so I had to push the hair out of my face to give him a clearer look.

Another pinch from Marina on my thumb and it hurt like a bitch. Hold on, it isn't the pinch that is hurting me this much. It's the pain of the rejection, why does the moon goddess have make everything strenuous for me?

"Let it be known to all werewolves present that the house of the Moonwillows and the Greyhound Pack at large will not accept an Omega, a weakling as a member of our pack not to talk of a weakling and from the whispers I hear, a weakling that is also a orphan." He sneered as I fell on my knees in pain, tears trickling from my eyes. Darn this kind of pain! It's too heavy than anything I've had to face in my entire life.

"Katherine, are you okay?" I heard Marina's voice and amidst the pains, I stared at her.

"Marina, get up. I can have people talking shit about me and I'll keep my head in the game but when it involves you, it would all be unbearable." I can't tell how I sounded but I was pretty sure it would be along the lines of been awfull and going through painful agony and a desperate voice that didn't want her to get slammed because of me.

"Infact, for the pleasure of this occasion; I'd like to sell her off." He announced and everyone clapped like it was supposed to be a thing of joy but my eyes widened in horror. I'm sure it's a thing of joy for them but the way.

"Sell me off?" I scoffed as I looked up at him from my kneeling position, the pain was easing as the moments flew by and it was getting unbearable.

"What gives you the right to talk back to an Alpha?" One Alpha from the lots that were present shut me down and I could only stare at him, words suitable for the situation escaping my mind.

"A little punishing should tame her mouth. Guards, give her 30 lashes of the whip." Alpha Xavier ordered but before I could open my mouth to protest, two pack soldiers had already gotten my side bounding my hands as they forced me to my knees and it began.

*Slash*

With each lash cutting into my body, life and death flashed before my eyes and I was unable to make any coherent sounds. Just muffles and whimpers as I saw my parents calling out to me on one hand and Marina pulling me to come with her in the other.

I shut my eyes and let the tears roll out with pursed lips till it was over and they unbound me but my body was too numb to move so I just remained in the same position.

"Isn't it a taboo that an Alpha as powerful as I am would be mated to this weak filthy omega of no class and apparently no family?" He asked snarling and the crowd answered in the affirmative.

It must feel nice for them to be able to talk without been hushed in deciding someone else's fate

"She is my fated mate and here by my property but I do not want her neither as a Luna or as a slave, I have a right to sell her off so whoever is interested in buying this piece of shit as a servant can state it now and she would be yours. She doesn't worth much only some few pieces of gold." He bellowed perusing the crowd for anyone that indicated interest while my heat thumped in my chest.

Getting rejected was one thing but getting sold was off limits.

"But you rejected me. You gave up the right of owning me, that means you're not eligible to selling me off right?" I queried in slow voice as the last thing I wanted him to find out right now was that I was crying and all my insides were broken because of him. He was an Alpha and I wouldn't lie but that little glimmer of hope that I'd be a Luna had crossed my mind when he called me his mate.

Not only are my hopes shattered, my dreams are crushed.

"You will shut up and do as you're asked, it's not like anyone has any use for you. No one would pick you anyways." The Alpha of my pack yelled out loud, anger visible on his face and in his tone so I bent my head in shame.

Doing what I always learnt to do, remaining irrelevant.

"I'll buy her." A gruesome voice that sounded like they belonged to the devil himself rang out and my heart skipped a few beats.

How hard would it have been for everyone to just hate me and not want me?

Everyone's eyes went to the direction of the voice and unfortunately for me, it was another Alpha that everyone referred to as the devil king, Alpha of the most powerful pack through out the clan, the Alpha king himself, Alpha King Derek.

"She'll cost you 150 gold pieces." Xavier splattered thrown into a slight shock that someone was willing to buy me but hold up, he said I'm worthless. Should 150 pieces of gold not to be too much a price for someone worthless.

Now that made me hope that the Alpha King would change his mind but as always, my hopes were crashed.

"I'll buy her." He said more vehemently this time, walking up to Alpha Xavier and dumped a little tiny bag of gold pieces on his hands. That should be twice as much pieces of gold.

Katherine, face the reality. I'm sold out.

To the devilish Alpha King Derek no less. If I don't pass out due to the pain that was running through my spine, then I would faint just for this revelation.
