CHAPTER 3

I was still frozen in shock just looking at her and wondering what was going on. Why were they smiling at each other? Why... Why?

"Darren" I called weakly and his eyes snapped to mine. The cold fury directed at me caused my heart to break even further.

"How can you do this to me" I cried but they paid me no mind. He led her to the front of the crowd and the wolves cheered loudly behind me. I couldn't stand it.

I was going to fall apart if I continued to stay here. I couldn't watch this. I pushed blindly through the crowd, tears spilling from my eyes.

I heard footsteps running behind me but I pushed myself harder. Someone roughly grabbed my arms and forced me to stop. When I turned around, I saw Tiana.

"How could you?” I broke down again.

"You...."

"Enough" she cut me off sharply.

"I'm tired of your blabbering. I wanted Darren first"

"But he is mine. He was supposed to be mine"

"Not anymore. He belongs to me now. I told you I always get what I want"

Her words from yesterday replayed in my head and I staggered on my feet.

So... Everything she said yesterday. Her crush, the man she planned to take was Darren and the woman I didn't want to hurt was me?

"You are my friend"

She scoffed. "Your friend? You surely didn't believe I would be friends with a common omega. I was only having fun and getting close to my goal"

"Tiana let's go back" my eyes snapped to Darren who was standing a few feet away from us. He wouldn't meet my eyes and there was no emotion on his face.

"I have to get back to my mate now," she said in a sultry voice and turned around, her hair slapping my face.

I itched to grab her hair, yank her back and pummeling her face. But I couldn't. I couldn't do anything. She was stronger than I was and she'll only hurt me.

I would also receive severe punishment for hurting the beta's mate. I watched through teary eyes as they walked away my heart shattering into thousands of pieces.

I was cursed. First I was born as omega and now, the only chance at happiness that I had, has been snatched away from me by someone I thought was my friend. And Darren just remained silent. Why was he hurting me?

I fell to my knees, sobbing loudly. I'm sure the whole pack could hear my cries but no one would care. After all, I was a common omega.

I felt so numb after crying. I could hear the drums of jubilation. I couldn't go back there. I picked myself up from the ground and dragged myself across the paths to the omega residence.

It was silent in here. The others were probably serving at the pack. I should be there too but I couldn't. I just couldn't. Punishment for not being there would probably come tomorrow but I wasn't worried in the slightest. I just didn't care at the moment.

Whatever would happen tomorrow should happen. I crawled into my bed. The sun was high in the sky and streaks of sunlight rested on my face. I stared blankly at the parched wall.

'I get whatever I want' her voice replayed in my head.

Why was she friends with me in the first place? I could never understand that. Why did she lie and pretend? Why did she snatch the one thing that meant the world to me?

I rolled restlessly on the bed, trying to get into a comfortable position. I slept off shortly.

When I opened my eyes again, it was dark outside and my head was pounding. The drums sounded louder than ever and I could hear every beat from my bed. I heard footsteps outside the door and it was pushed open.

An elderly woman stood at the door with a stoic face. I recognized her instantly. She was one of the few elderly omegas. No one knew her name but we all called her Tata.

"You should be at the celebration" she didn't enter the room.

I didn't respond to her.

"Sitting here and sulking would not change anything" my eyes snapped up to meet hers.

"He already made his choice. You'll only get into trouble if you neglect your duties"

"Then I'll just face the consequences," I said in irritation.

"And you think it's worth it? You'll be whipped raw tomorrow"

"I don't care" I snapped at her and felt regret instantly.

"I'm sorry" I apologized sincerely.

"Don't be. You're angry. It's well within your rights" the floorboard creaked as she crossed the room and sat beside me on my small bed.

"I knew your mother" she started and I listened intently.

"A brave sweet woman. It's a pity she passed on so soon"

My heart clenched. A real pity. I missed her so much and I wish I had the chance to know her even more.

"I know for a fact she wouldn't want to see you like this. She wouldn't want this life for you"

I scoffed. "I don't have options. I was born as an omega. There's no other life for me outside this"

"You're wrong. You choose to believe that your options are limited"

"If there are options like you claim, why didn't you take any of them?"

"I was a coward"

"I'm not any better"

"No child. You have a bright future ahead of you and I know you can do more for yourself. There is a life beyond these borders. A life that could favor you"

My eyes widened. "Are you asking me to...."

"Run away? Exactly"

"That's suicide. No one has ever been able to leave this land. What if I get caught?"

"You're already looking at the negative side without trying it"

I shook my head. "I'm only being reasonable"

She sighed deeply. "Listen, child. There's no good future for you here in this pack. Your beloved has been taken and your so-called friend will probably try to make your life a living hell. The features are ongoing and everyone is too busy to guard the border. You have a chance to leave. Go away and make a new life for yourself"

"Stop. Please. What you are saying is impossible. If it was that easy, no omega will be here"

"Frost..."

"Please. Just stop" I cried in frustration.

"Think about what I said. Your mother would have suggested the same if she was here".

I didn't look at her as she left the room and closed the door behind her. My stomach rumbled in hunger and I lay in bed again.

Tata's words replayed in my head continuously. As much as the idea was a risky and maybe a stupid one, I couldn't help but consider it.

I would finally be free from this life and the impending torture the new mating would bring to me.

But being out alone in the cold, exposed to the wild rogues and other dominant predators, it wasn't worth the risk. My stomach grumbled again and I climbed down from my bed.

I crossed the room and looked in the corridor. No one was back home yet. I needed to find something to eat but with the neglect of my duties today, there was no chance I would get cooked food.

But there was a tree, it had good fruits. The tree had so many memories for it was where i shared intimate time with Darren. The dried twigs broke under the weight of my foot as I made my way over to where I could get some food.

I pushed the long grasses separating me from the tree and paused at the sight in front of me.

Naked like the day they were born were Darren and Tiana. She had her legs wrapped around him and he held her close to himself.

And there, underneath our special spot, he sunk his fangs into her neck. A small cry left me and I turned away, running back towards the house.

I couldn't stand this. I wouldn't be able to watch them be together. I grabbed a small bag, stuffed my clothes into it, and slung it over my shoulder. With one last look at the room, I walked away.

It was time to find a new path for myself.

    My eyes slowly opened on their own. I was in an unfamiliar surrounding and my head was threatening to split into two from the pounding. I forced myself into a sitting position ignoring the throbbing in my head and I looked around. Silver bars surrounded me, locking me in a cell.I didn’t dare go close to the bars from the fear of pain. The smell of wet fur and decayed blood filled my senses and my stomach quivered. Memories from earlier filled my head. I had stumbled into the territory of the black heart pack before I was knocked out. The pack Sienna had warned me about.Shit Sienna. She asked me to get help for her. “Hey” I called out in a small voice but it was loud enough for any wolf within a three mile radius to hear me clearly.My call was responded to by snarls. Scary snarls that sounded close by and threatening.“We have to help Sienna” I called out again with a more steady voice. The snarls increased but I paid them no mind. Just as I opened my mouth to shout again, I heard

I wouldn't sleep in the same bed with another, it didn't feel right. She muttered something under her breath and snuggled deeper into the pillows, her red hair covering her face. I couldn't even remember what her name was. I put on my pants and left the room. only a few omega's loitered the hallways and the moment they saw me, they scampered away. I wasn't going to hurt them for simply existing but they didn't know that and it was better we kept it that way. The fear they had for me made them stay in line and in check. I walked down the hallway and to my bedroom. The scent of the maid who must have cleaned it irritated my senses. I didn't like anyone being in my room, so I avoided it at all costs but the room has to be cleaned, the slaves were instructed to air out the room so their scent would be out before I return. My gu

    My body went cold at his words. He was going to kill me now. I looked everywhere but at him. None of the men uttered a single word. I looked at the bushes and thought of sprinting away. They would probably still be in shock and not be able to catch me."Don't think about it" he snapped at me.A few minutes later, the beta who asked me to get away was now standing in front of me. Recognition filled his eyes the moment he took in the sight of the alpha."Why is there a rogue on my land," he asked again. His voice was much deadlier and it was directed at the beta. "She was lost""That doesn't change the fact that she's a fucking rogue""She is harmless " the beta defended."Harmless? did you just refer to a rogue as harmless? You know the current situation with rogues and you were going to let one walk away freely from our land?""Without investigating her? Or letting me know?"The beta didn't respond."I'm disappointed Xander" Alpha spat at him. He nodded to the guards. "Take her to th

    My thought didn't go still even after Xander was gone. How could it? Those sparks were the best thing I've felt since the beginning of my existence. I just couldn't stop thinking about it for a second. The main door of the dungeon opened and I heard footsteps,a single pair this time. It was the other guard who was with the alpha earlier. His eyes were full of hate as he opened my cell. I moved in fear. Why was he here? It was obvious he hated me. Did they send him to kill me? He yanked me roughly from my position on the floor and pushed me outside. I caught myself before I could fall face-first on the ground. "Where are we going?" I asked in fear. He didn't respond to my question and only pushed me harder. My hip slammed into another cello bar and I groaned in pain. He didn't even acknowledge that or pause in his inhumane treatment. If anything, it gave him joy that I got hurt. He kept pushing me until we were outside the dungeon. There was no one in the hallway that I could ask fo

    The next morning came faster than I wanted it to. There was a loud clang from outside. Probably in the hallway but it sounded like it was next to my ear. The other girls hurried out to take their baths. I followed them and when I returned, I saw a dress on my bed. I quickly put it on and followed the girls out of the downstairs quarters. The kitchen was already bustling even though there was no sign of light outside. "Where's the new girl?" I heard Agnia's voice even before I saw her. She was dressed in a long blue shirt with leather pants and her hair was packed in a tight neat bun. I looked around and noticed it was the same as the other girls. She eyed me with disapproval. "Come with me" she instructed and I followed after that. We entered a small room with two chairs and a mirror on the wall. "This is your first day so you'll be excused. From tomorrow, you must come in here like other girls and do your hair properly before dawn" she commanded and packed my hair tightly. I wi

    I took Lucia’s advice and life became a whole lot better for me. A month passed quickly and I was still stuck with the same list Agnia had given me when I first started. The east wing, I dreaded going there every day but I had no choice. Turns out there were a lot of rooms that had been uncleaned for years and somehow, it was expected of me to clean them. In the last four weeks, Lucia had been changed twice. We didn’t talk much. Just a few words between us whenever we crossed paths. “Fuck” I groaned as my toe hit the edge of the bed. I cursed under my breath. I didn’t deserve this suffering at all. I dragged the bag of laundry out into the hallway and took the clean sheets inside to change the bedding and curtains. It was the last thing I had to do for the day and I could go for lunch and finally have some rest. I saw Lucia pack up and leave just as I heard voices. It was common for me to hear people talking here while I worked but it was very unusual for them to come to the rooms.

    A new week has just begun and I was awaiting a new list. Hopefully, I won't be sent back to the east wing. The other girls lounged in the room as only a few had gone out for the day's work. After sitting for a long while, just waiting around, I got dressed and exited the room. The kitchen was not as busy as it usually was. I scanned the area for Agnia but I couldn't spot her. “Hello, have you seen Agnia?” I tapped a girl and asked. “Lady Agnia?” “Right, lady Agnia” “Down the hall, she's giving out the lists for duties” “Thank you” she didn't respond and went back to her duties. I went down the hall and I saw Agnia with a group of girls surrounding her. I got in line as she handed out the list until it got to my turn. “I don't remember summoning you for duties today” “You've never summoned me, I always show up on Mondays to get my list in the kitchen” “Didn’t you wonder why there are only a few people doing duties today? I'm sure you saw other girls relaxing” “Yes but…” “But

    Xander and WillWill’s PovI didn’t know how to feel about Xander but I was mostly upset with him. Yes, he had fucked up big time. But so had I. I asked for forgiveness and Frost had forgiven me. Rome had forgiven him too. He visited and asked him to return to the pack house as the beta but he refused. He would rather live like an outcast than become beta again. I didn’t like that he would want to wallow in self-pity, regretting his actions all the days of his life.‘Why are you with him?’ my wolf questioned. I liked him. I wanted something more with him. He said he wanted the same with me. But I didn’t know if I could be with him if he chose to never forgive himself for how he betrayed Alpha Rome.I continued on my way to Sileas's new residence.

I often wished it'll come sinner but I can't be faster than fates. Strong arms wrapped around me and touched my rounded belly. I leaned into the touch of my mate. His warm hand touching our child through my belly caused warmth to spread through me.Rome was more eager to see the baby than I was. If he had his way, then our baby would have been here months ago. He never failed to show how much he loved and adored our child. Always kissing and touching my swollen belly."I told you to stay in bed" he whispered in my ear before biting my lobes as a punishment for defying his orders."I can't stay in bed all day""It's good for you. You should have enough rest until our pup is here""It gets so boring. If only you spent it with me"He turned me around so we were facing each other and he kissed me deeply.

    The days got better but Rome's work didn't reduce in the slightest. I offered to help but he refused each time. I tried several times to bring up Xander's case but he dismissed it each time. It worried me to see the bags under his eyes."Are you listening to me at all?" I asked him with folded arms. "Yes. And I'm assuring you it's Omar. I can take care of it""You're barely getting any sleep""There's a lot to be done. I can't just leave it""I'm not asking you to leave it.

It doesn't matter to me" I stomped off and he let me go.Since he wasn't going to be a hardhead and do all the work himself, I wasn't going to stop him or ask him not to work. He could work himself to death if he wants to.'You don't mean that' my wolf scowled. Of course, I don't. I would never wish him death but he was so frustrated, why won't he try to get he

I caught movement in the doorway and I saw Agnia waiting to be called."Agnia" Rome called her from the doorway and she strode inside.I looked at Sienna to take in her reaction to the news. So many emotions crossed her face at the same time. Hurt, regret, disbelief and finally settled on anger."You're my mother?" She questioned."Yes my child" Agnia reached for her but she moved away quickly."You aren't dead? Or sick or anything. You're healthy and alive""Yes," Agnia cried."You left me" sienna's tone was accusing."All my life.....you never came to find me""I wanted to. Believe me, I really wanted to but I couldn't.

It was the toughest but in the end, I was here with my mate, and a pup growing inside of me.I caressed my stomach gently, there was no bump yet but in the next couple of months, the child will arrive. I couldn't wait to hold my pup in my arms.Rough palms covered my palm on my stomach. I looked behind me and I was key with the intense eyes of my mate."My love" his voice was husky and it sent a drag wave of weakness between my legs.I loved hearing that from his mouth. He grinned and kissed me deeply, turning me over until we were facing each other."You look beautiful this morning" he complimented but I rolled my eyes. I'm certain I looked like a mess.He ran his plan lazily over my stomach."I can't wait

    He grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the hall towards his office. We kept kissing, his free hand trying at every opportunity to touch any part of me. He opened his office door and dragged me in gently, slamming the door shut behind us. He pressed against me and I could feel his cock pressed up on my lower belly. I was writhing in anticipation. He kissed my neck, sucking on the skin. His hand stretched over my back in an attempt to pull down the zipper of my dress.He stopped and turned me around, easily pulling the zipper down all the way. He ran his fingers along the length of my back and a shiver traveled up my spine.I was so eager, pulling my hands out from my dress and it fell to the floor. I couldn't wait any more seconds. I turned around, facing him now. I went in for another kiss.He stopped kissing me for a moment and pulled back to look at my breasts. I heard his heavy breath before he plunged again into kissing and sucking at my skin. He continued downwards until his mou

    I was nervous as hell. No matter how many times I cleaned my palms, they still managed to be sweaty. I'd mentally prepared myself for today but now it was time, it didn't seem like I could do it. Today was the merger of the three packs. I was going to also be introduced publicly as the best blood wolf. Everyone wanted to meet me. So I have heard. I've not met with the other Alphas yet. Each time Rome want me to go with him, I came up with an excuse that I didn't want to leave the house. We didn't have to argue about that. Rome had been extra loving, doting on me and making sure I had whatever I wanted it. He was taking good care of me. I spent my days eating and reading and puking. Hormones. There was movement outside the door and voices. I tended. It wasn't Rome. He said he would come and get me when it was time. Or did he send another? He would get an earful from me if he did. There was a soft rap on the doors. "Come in" I called out and the door opened slowly. Jon was standing

    Rome left early. I had no idea what he wanted to take care of but it gave me a good opportunity to leave the room like I wanted. Ajax was guarding my door. "Luna" he bowed. "I'll like to see Xander" He scratched behind his ear. "I don't think that's a good idea. The Alpha...." "I'll handle him but I need to see Xander" His reluctance was clear and I couldn't blame him. "Now Ajax. You can either accompany me there or point me in the right direction" He hesitated but then he nodded. "Let's go" I walked behind him, pleased to be outside. Girls and guards bowed as I walked past. It wasn't a new thing but it felt different. Rome informed me that wounds had spread about how I defeated the rogues and everyone wanted to meet me. Including my new pack. I was nervous about it but he assured me, I had nothing to worry about and we could see them whenever I was ready. We arrived at a door. "He is inside Luna" I knocked twice on the door and I heard his voice before I pushed it open. "
