Chapter 3

******Myra's POV******

After I had informed them about my pregnancy and the one responsible for it, the Luna and Alpha brought me over to the Pack's court. Dorian was brought in too and he stood before me as requested by the elders.

I saw the anger and hatred he harbored for me in his dark eyes. My confidence faltered at some point when my gaze met his.

If given a chance, there was no doubt that he would surely strangle me there and then.

"Dorian, what do you have to say about her claims, did you have an affair with her?" One of the Elders asked after a comfortable silence had passed.

Dorian turned to look at me and glared at me.

"I'm innocent." He said without doubt and I held my breath.

Murmurs filled the entire hall as everyone watched in confusion.

"But did you ever find out that she was your fated mate?" The elder pressed, waiting patiently for a reply from him.

I clenched my fist as tears began to pool up in my eyes. I had no one to stand for me, no one to speak for me and support me in this time of trails.

But I had Phoenix as my help and support, I would definitely win this and get the justice I deserved. I just couldn’t raise my child alone.

"Myra, are you willing to go through a test?" The Luna's voice rang out from the audience and I turned to look at her.

Was I willing to go through a test?

"Say yes." Phoenix said and before I knew it, I gave a nod.

"Yes, I'll go through a test."

Murmur filled the entire court again as everyone discussed of this issue. Maybe they were surprised at my bravery.

But deep down, I had a bad feeling building up.

"Alright then, it is decided. Myra and Dorian will go through a test to find out if truly, Dorian is the father of her unborn child. Dorian will go first." The Elder declared and a woman walked forward to lead him out.

Dorian raised a hand to stop the woman who was supposed to serve as his guide.

"Before we leave, I have a word to say to you." His gaze was fixed on me as he said those words.

"If it is proven that the child you claim is mine, doesn't belong to me, you will be burnt to death!" Dorian gritted out before the entire court as his dark eyes glared daggers at me.

Fear filled me just hearing his words and the seriousness in his tone. Suddenly, I didn't want to go through the test anymore, but I also can't raise this child alone.

I dragged in a deep breath and nodded.

The result would surely be positive, Dorian is the only man I had been with in my entire life.

"Alright, let's go." He said and followed after the woman who led him out of the court.

After a while, they both returned and it was my turn to go.

I followed the woman as she led me towards the room which had a built in alter for the moon goddess.

"Take off your clothes and go on your knees," ahs ordered, a look of disdain in her eyes as she stared at me.

I did as requested, taking off my dress and going on my knees before the alter.

She came around to rub my still flat stomach as she did whatever she was doing.

After a while, she moved away from me and went forward to mix something in a bowl.

She kept mixing it for a while and after sometime, she turned to look at me, fury evident in her blue eyes.

Seeing the look in her eyes, the uneasiness I felt inside intensified and I trembled physically.

"You were indeed lying, The Alpha's son isn't the father of your child!"

At those words, I got up on my feet, eyes wide as I processed her words.

"How is that possible, I'm very sure of what I'm saying!" I said, my voice cracking as the overwhelming fear I felt wouldn't go away.

She shook her head, a mocking look on her face as she said, "It is clear as day on this result that you were lying! So stop lying!" She yelled and pulled me by my arm, not even caring that I was half naked in only my underwear and bra.

"Please listen to me! Please!" I was a crying mess as she pulled me out of the room and straight to the court.

My heart beat accelerated, fear consuming my entire body as I was dragged into the court and before everyone.

"Alpha, the results are out and Dorian isn't the father of her child." The woman declared as she forcefully threw me unto the hard floor.

The Alpha and Luna's gaze darkened as the stared at me.

They stood up to their feet, making their way towards me.

"How dare you lie about my son?!" The Luna yelled at me and I curled up on the floor.

That bad feeling that something terrible was about to happen, increased as I just realized that they had lied to me.

I knew that Dorian was the father of my child, but they seemed to have messed with the results and now, they would have me killed for lying.

"No…. I'm saying the truth…." My voice broke as my shoulders wouldn't stop shaking.

Everyone casted evil glances at me as I kept watching each and everyone of their faces, expecting help from any of them.

But it seemed I got my hopes up quite alot because, no one would be willing to stand up for an omega against the Alpha of the future Wildwood pack.

I saw Dorian walked forward with a smirk.

"Trying to pin another man's child on me was the worst mistake of your miserable life. I also gave you a warning that you would be punished if the results turned out negative. And see what happened." He said.

I watched Dorian's face, his face devoid of all emotions as he watched me with a disdainful look.

"It is decided, since Myra lied about her pregnancy and tried to pin the bastard child on our future Alpha, her punishment is death. Take her away and get her burnt tomorrow before the entire pack!"

The Elder declared and I felt my heart dropped to my stomach.

"No! Please, there must be a mix up somewhere! Dorian you can't do this to me! Dorian!"
