I struggled and crawled to where Lucas stood, anger and hatred overwhelmed me, the pain pierced my inner soul.
I was already passing out, but I needed to know the reason why Lucas had to betray me and treat me in such a brutal way.
I do not have enough time left for me, but I still tried my best approaching Lucas. Unable to rise up, I picked a stone to throw at him, but she missed it.
Weak, unable to breath properly, pained, regrets… all these were the emotion bursting through my brains.
The crowd was staring at me, the only surviving blood shadow pack was gazing at her in pain.
They couldn’t do anything to save me, they don’t have the power to do so, if they did, they could have slaughtered Zoe and Lucas.
I was not pained because I was hurt or because of how I was treated, I was pained because of how I was betrayed.
"Lucas" I called out to him, stretching my hands towards him.
“Why did you have to do this to me? Why did you decide to betray me without a reason?" I coughs out blood and continued.
"Have I not loved you enough? Have I offended you in anyway that I needed to be cautioned? Why did you..” I opened my mouth gasping for air.
Then I saw Lucas approached and stepped on my shaky left hand.
"Awww!" I screamed in pain, panting hard trying to get some breathe.
"I knew you were never my chosen mate, you foolishly abandoned Karen for me, you were just a coward!" He yelled, and kicked me then stepped back a bit.
"I have never loved you, and will never do so… I just needed that Alpha position.. That was the reason why I played the game of love with you without having any feelings for you.." He then burst into a manic laughter.
"How was I so blind with love and not see this side of him?"
"You think you were the one I loved, cared for and valued, so dumb of you . Scarlett" he then took Zoe’s hand ,and they both came closer to me where I laid on the ground, struggling in pain.
"Now, that I have achieved my goal, I decided to let you go, I never wanted to execute you but someone else wanted it…" he confessed again making me curious, my tummy hurt so bad, my bone was very weak.. My whole body Is in pain and very hot. But I still struggled to keep my sight and hearing well open.
"Someone, who you cherish and trust," this made me raise my head, wondering who that would be.
It was not Zoe ,if it was her, it might be out of jealousy but I know she won't do it.
"Do not think too far, Scarlett, it was your Father that wants you dead. Who else where you thinking?" Zoe laughed out, and my brain began spinning..
"Wh… why?" I struggled to breathe out, the pain I was feeling in my heart was much worse than the one I was feeling in my body.
I looked at my father in agony and my stepmother in irritation. I was not shocked by what I was told, still I was not quick to believe the story.
My mother was a leader, an Alpha to the blood shadow pack while my father was a weak werewolf from the Silver Moon pack.
The pack was looked down on, and they had nothing to show off. He was not chosen as my mother’s mate but it was a true bond that mated them and then they gave birth to me.
He hates me because he thinks I dislike him the same way my mother’s clan do. I have tried times without numbers to make him know I love him but he doesn't believe me.
My mother committed suicide as she could not stand the mate bond between her and him.
He selected another mate two weeks after the departure of my mother, Charlotte which then made me understand he doesn't even want mum in the first place.
Father was a weak and coward werewolf, envious and brutal, Charlotte my step mother was his supporting system in his evil scheme, both strategize every step they took to avoid being suspicious.
He had helped me stopped Karen from settling any pressure in wanting me as his mate. I thought he had finally begun to love and understand me not knowing they were having another evil plan.
"Your Father wanted you dead and never wanted the Blood shadow pack to continue. So, he told me to order for the execution of the clan, ..." Lucas said again gaining back my attention my dream world.
"He was the mastermind planner of this game, Scarlett. I am super proud of your Father, he made me achieve my goals in an easy way, I never regretted my actions or felt like giving up , because I knew I was getting there, now see…" Lucas confessed without remorse, he does not care about my pain, I could see he wanted me dead already.
I was raging in wrath, I am pretty sure my eyes were fierce, I wanted to kill them all, I wanted them to pass through the same discomfort I am passing through right now.
Zoe grinned and squats before me, and held my hair so tight, lifting my face towards her, my neck was hurting so bad.
“Do you think everything Lucas said was a cooked up story to scare you or slander you to your grave? If you think so, you should have to rethink, my love,"
She wrung my hair like a towel dragging it in a way it will hurt me so much and then proceeded with what she was saying.
“Everything, Lucas said, he said not in the absence of your father, but in his presence was true, no pinch of lies detected."
"He also schemed making you love Lucas more , he planned the execution of your mother’s clan during this ceremony.” Zoe let go of my hair and spat on her face.
I bear those words that was uttered from them in pain, my hatred for the four manipulators and betrayals grew up with a high force of acceleration .
I wanted to kill Lucas instantly but I could not move an inch any longer. I breathed slowly, I strove for air, and tossed myself to face the sky, tears rolled down sideways .
One of the witches then accompanied Zoe with a stick and a hot iron towards me, they afflicted my wounds with the hot iron, causing me more pain till I could not scream any longer.
Zoe trounced me with the stick , which landed on my abdomen , blood oozing out of my mouth and nostrils.
I was restored with retribution and hatred, I seek revenge , for myself and her clan, I do not believe in karma.
I want to be the Karma myself..
Zoe hit my head with the stick, this forced out a scream of pain from my mouth, I shifted, as I tried to avoid further strike, another landed on my neck, I gave out a silent cry of discomfort .
The witch dropped the hot iron on my chest, staring at me as she sighed .
Then I black out m with revenge been imprinted on my mid .
"I will come back for revenge!"
"Oh, my head hurts,I feel like I have fallen from the sky." I mumbled trying to get up but all I felt was discomfort all over my body. Still I could not find any injury inflicted on me. The only thing I could remember was a young man on a white robe in my nightmare telling me that, this is my second chance. I could remember vividly about the nightmare, I can even tell the story of what happened in my nightmare over and over again, if I was asked .Though, my nightmare made me feel frightened, especially when I remembered the cold look Lucas gave me.I became more and more terrified, I needed to find Lucas and talk to him, this nightmare can not be.Still having a bang on my forehead, I ignored it, stood from the bed and moved out of the house, in search of Lucas. On my way out I met Zoe. This same face, she tortured me to death, she jabbed a stick on my head and on my neck, causing me several pains before I passed out. It was this same soul, that told me stories that broke me emot
I quickly sneaked into a corner of the room in panic as I saw Zoe and Lucas kissing passionately.I took a step back to avoid being seen by them, which made my head slammed the window, my eyes turned fierce as tears rushed out of my eyes.I knelt at the corner and rested my head against the wall. Then torturing scenes of my nightmare kept coming back, head ache more than before.I could not believed what I just saw , this was his sister he told me about or was Zoe someone else?I held my head, trying to compress the emotions with the torture banging in my head."Those nightmares were true, it all really happened… They are all betrayers.“She thinks you Love her, I felt for her though, no woman would stand such betrayal" Zoe said kissing Lucas on the neck as he moaned out in pleasure.“I would not think of betraying someone I valued and loved, I will not think twice about that" he laughed out. My heart began hurting, as he said those words.Hearing the conversation between them clear
Inside my house, were Zoe and Lucas sitting at the open window of a small room looking out west onto the garden. As Zoe rested her head on Lucas' shoulder.I still can't believe they think they are still going to fool me with their fake sibling relationships. They both thought I was in my room having a good afternoon rest, so I could gain enough strength for the matching ceremony…I had planned to dress and not call her. In the past, she was the one who assisted me with the dress and makeup."Pftt how stupid of them both." I thought in my mind as I rolled my eyes, still watching from up the stairs, with my bag beside me.Though I still felt hurt watching the both of kept holding one another and Lucas having that stupid big smile of his. Like they should have given a little bit of respect knowing that they were now in my house.I also looked out the open window, they were both staring at and fondling one another happily.The late afternoon was bright and peaceful. The flowers glowed O
On reaching the ceremony, a happy whistle could be heard, as praises and joyful chants all over.How I wish they knew it would end in sadness if not for the second chance given to me.Lucas held me as we both greeted different werewolf clans present. They are all very proud of me and praise me. If only they knew I once made the same mistake my mum made but is just trying to rectify my mistake and avenge our deaths now.Lucas told me he wanted to go meet someone important, which I knew was Zoe, but I just brushed it off, smiling dangerously within me. It is just a matter of time. I should let them enjoy themselves in riches for now."Lady Scarlett, you are looking so beautiful today," One of the elders praised, smiling beautifully."I do look beautiful before you know.." I teased."Of course I know, Silly girl… I just wanted to praise you, and you spoiled or already.." She snorted, feigning a hurt face. I just love her.Lady Kiara, she was a close friend of mum before her death and ha
KAREN POV"Good morning Alpha, it's time for the meeting with the pack…""Get the f**k outta my room!" I growled not letting him complete his statement. "Hmmm nope, the meeting Is very important and we won't can't afford to miss.." I threw one of my cushions at him before he could complete his statement, what exactly doesn't he get by getting the hell outta my room?"Well if you won't attend the meeting, then I won't tell you the juicy news I got from a spy.." Before I could even control myself I flew up from bed. My whole body was in pain, though my wounds had healed, my cracked bones were refusing to heal because my wolf had gone into hiding for days now.Wondering where I get the crack bones from? It's from running to the territory of my pack fighting bunches of rogues without any help.I don't want to think about the pain I have been going through for the past few weeks now."What news is that… I promise if you don't tell me, I will make sure you don't have a tongue to talk till
"Karen, I miss you.." I felt her hug me from the back but I didn't move a bit. I have been trying to push her away from my life but she doesn't listen. She is my father's gamma daughter, so automatically she is my gamma."What did I tell you about calling me by my name?" I asked in annoyance as I loosened her hands. I knew she has had a crush since when she was five. I have tried letting her know I have a mate.She stopped bothering me for a few months now when she found out I met with my mate. But she decided to start disturbing me the moment she found out about my mate rejecting me."Common, I am a friend of yours, your gamma, and also your soon-to-be Luna since your chosen mate doesn't know your worth." She enunciated smiling proudly. How do I explain to her, even if my mate doesn't want me, I can't make her my mate? I can't accept it, I don't have a single feeling toward her."Soon to be Luna my ass… get this into your brain, he won't make you one," Nathan told her grinning seein
SCARLETT"Mate?" I still asked confused, just immediately the familiar smell hit my nose.. my wolf danced around in joy. I was told to stay away from love so why the hell? Why is it here?I was sad, angry, happy, and confused, I can't even explain my emotions.There he was in his giant white wolf, standing and staring at me, with those cool grey eyes. I need no one to tell me who owns this wolf.“Karen!” I howled in pain, kneeling before his wolf, confused, yet excited.How would this be? Karen was not on the list of men I considered to be chosen as my mate. I never liked him, or ever thought of him existing, though, he is a handsome man with a fine-built masculine structure.Before I was reborn, Karen had a crush on me, he stalked me whenever I walked past his orchard, anytime he came to stay in our pack for some sort of ceremony.I was not interested and never noticed his presence. Until then I heard of the nuptial ceremony my father had arranged with him.“What are you doing her
LUCASThat was an embarrassment I never expected from a tone, especially Scarlett. I never even thought of her running away.I thought she said she loved me, I thought she wanted to be with me, then why the rejection?I could hear and sense the way the members of her clan were gossiping about me, I made a great effort in putting them together and making them like me, and now this! Zoe was beside me stamping her feet on the ground, fuming anger from her nose. Scarlett really shocked us all.“Are you sure she is mentally stable?” Zoe beseeched, very furious, her whole face was red in anger…. She had thought she would be Luna tonight now Scarlett had turned the table. We are so confused.“Why would you ask that question?” I turned to her, trying to calm my anger so she won't take it the wrong way.“If she was mentally unstable, why would -wait…there are events where she was acting insane." I stared at her curiously wondering what she was talking about."The slap, the water, those weir
WARNING ❗❗❗TORTURE AHEAD NEXT DAYThe morning was bright and more peaceful than other days, but the glooming environment could be felt all over the pack.Rhoda, already lost her life before she was brought out of the well, and for some reasons I felt sorry for her, though I didn't like her but never wished for her to have that ending. It was said that the death of her parent came to her as a shock, and couldn't bear and decided to commit suicide.Karen came out of the hall, with a bundle of sticks and an igniter. While I approached him."I want to burn her, but her body is still soaked in water," Karen said already knowing my question.I didn't want to push the issue knowing Rhoda's death also hurt him, he lost three important people in his life in a role and I could understand his gloominess.“She needs to be dried up before burning her into ashes, that I understand,” I said as I opened the cover slightly.Rhoda’s body was already swollen and having a pungent odor . “But What ab
SCARLETT"Hey Scarlett! Open your eyes.." I felt someone shaking me seriously pleading for me to open my eyes."Stop smiling and open your eyes damn it!" I heard the familiar voice called again.I fluttered my eyes open and loomed around to see I was on the ground and in the arms of a familiar warmth I can never forget."Karen?" I called to be sure I wasn't already with thank goodness."Thank goodness you are fine, didn't I want to be careful and not let any harm come to you or the park member?" I kept fluttering my eyes still in the state of shock not knowing what to say."You are alive?" I asked and pulled him in for a tight embrace, I didn't know how to thank the moon goddess for sending him back to me, I was so delighted being in his warm hold again."Thanks a lot for being alive! I promise not to misuse this opportunity again," I cried out as he pulled me more tightly.Then I pushed him away, "Then you shouldn't have made me believe you were dead." I hit his chest recalling how h
SCARLET"Nancy, stay with me please," I cried as I held her almost cold body." I can't lose another important soul."Nancy, please.. Please…" I continued shaking her, "We need to take her to the pack, before she give.." Nathan stopped talking when he recalled what we were currently go through.Nancy face was paled and I could see how Nathan struggled to stand well, I lost Karen and doesn't even know how to break the news and here is Nancy also dying.Nancy suddenly gripped me pulling me to her so she could talk, "Yo… you.. your blood can save me." She struggles to breathe and of which I was quick to catch on."I picked up her dagger and sliced my palm, dropping my blood into her wound, she groaned painfully, making tears almost dropping out of my eyes.It was just like Karen had groaned painfully, and I couldn't even do anything… "Go save them, I am entrusting them on you." Continuously wiping my tears as my blood kept dripping into her wound. I sliced m uhh palm again, but Nathan st
Nathan pov"Aww.,," I groaned as I felt something hit my head, fluttering my eyes open. I was met with Nancy before me, glaring at me badly."That's hurt." I grumbled, but she just rolled her eyes. "This is no time for you to take a nap." She retorted and sat on the ground innocently like she didn't just hurt me."Hey, that's not fair, I was negotiating, " I murmured and looked ahead to see some warriors coming out of the way.If we had known on time that we already have a traitor, Alpha wouldn't have gone to save Scarlett that way. The moment we got to the pack, we were shocked to see, my pack already turned to that filled with slaves. It was too late to turn backa and save Scarlett pack members, we had no choice but to surrender so we didn't lose more lives. I still hope my one would still be able to hold on, I lost my brother already. I don't know how I would feel if I also lost her."Still can't believe the King had been behind all this." Nancy whispered with a crack voice. I th
I waited for a few more minutes but still didn’t feel any sort of pain or pleasure like have thought, I then opened my eyes hoping because I went numb was the reason whyOnly to see Karen behind me, and Henry bitting deep into his hands, “ What the fuck dude!’ Henry yelled and released Karen.Karen choked him on his neck and was punching him continuously, his eyes were no longer the way it always seems. You need no soothsayer to tell he was more than furious.Henry warriors rushed toward them trying to pull but Karen was way too stronger than them. When Karen was exhausted He stopped throwing him far away and rushed to where I squatted.“Scarlett, get a grip of yourself.” I felt him shaking me, who was still in shock of being marked by the bastard.Here Karen comes again to save me, even though it caused him a lot of pain, he is always the one giving without me even returning his help for once. Still he doesn’t care but always made me his priority. I felt too guilty to even look up t
“What?” I asked to be sure of what he just said, was he not the one who rejected me? Now what?You heard me right, you will be mine soon,” he said and moved closer to me.“Stay away from you bastard!” Just on cue, I felt a silver blade beside my neck the moment I abused him. I looked toward my right side to see It was his Beta, I didn’t notice he was also in his room.“Seethe your sword! She is your future Queen” he roared, of which the Beta did instantly. That was the reason why he had felt familiar the moment I saw him, in my pack we had had our encounter in the past.And he apologized for being too late to me in my pack then because he wanted to have me back.“News flash! Karen is my one and true mate, there is no way I will be your queen so stop dreaming,” I retorted and stood from the bed.“The likes of the so-called mate you want, his pack members, and yours are in my hands…” he pushed me back with a finger and traced his hands till it got under my shin and raised my head up.“
SCARLETTI find myself walking into the familiar woods I always played when I was still a kid, "how did I get here?" I asked no one in particular.I kept walking and walking until I was deep in the wood, I wanted to stop but it was like a force was the one controlling me.I only stopped walking when I found my favorite play spot."You can't catch me!" I heard an angelic little girl's voice, I looked behind me to see a small version of me running around with a grown boy. I couldn't help but wonder who the boy was.Hi, I could tell it wasn't Lucas, but why the hell didn't I recall this exact scene? My head was only filled with me playing with Zoe, Lucas and Nancy."Ahhh!" The little me giggled and from on the ground as the boy tickled me."I told you to run fast," the boy said and continued tickling me.“Sto… stop it.. Hen.. Henry,” my little me managed to breathe out but Henry didn’t stop.“It’s a punishment dear I won’t stop,” I cracked up my brain trying to recall if I ever recall a
ROLS 99“Make sure to take good care of them,” I told Nancy and Nathan. I was on my way to the palace to take Scarlett and it was very dangerous leaving just her members there.I also needed to get Addison buried and some ceremony for him, Nathan was devastated hearing the news of his twin brother’s death, he hasn’t been in a good mood since he heard it.I haven’t been able to have a good conversation with Rhoda because of the issues. She kept acting like she didn’t care but I could see the hurt in her eyes when she was told about the baby’s father’s death.“Make sure to keep an eye on Zoe, she mustn’t escape from your grasp,” I warned dangerously as they both nodded again.“I trust you both on this,” with that, I and my gamma started our journey to the palace.My wolf hasn’t been in a good mood after losing a friend and also his mate being unconscious.I climbed onto my horse which was among the horses brought by my men to help transport some of the weak members and left.A few hours
KAREN“Lucas!” I growled as I and my warriors stormed into his pack, some members rushed out all looking weak and tired, I could see fear in their eyes as they knew who I was and dared not do anything daring at me.“Look who is here,” I heard the lady who has been following what Lucas does and is now an enemy of mine even though I could see clearly that she isn't treated well by lucas.“Grab her,” I ordered and immediately Zoe was pulled by one of my warriors and a dagger was placed on her throat.“Let me go you bastard haven’t you all done enough.?” She asked with fear evident in her voice.“Take me to your mate and I will let you go,” I ordered.“There will be no need for that,” Lucas came out also doing the same thing I saws doing to hisi wa to Rhoda.Rhoda face was filled with bruises and the robe she was putting on was torn showing her pultruding tommy. One could tell that her baby was going to come at any time. In anger I pulled Zoe toward me and broke her right arm. The sound
