“What the fuck!” He exclaimed, followed by a handful of saliva.
Mavana realized what she had done, but she refused to give in to his threatening look. Her legs trembled from standing too long with her bloody and peeled skin.
Civil Elder grabbed her hair hard. Her screams were inaudible to him, so he tightened his grip on her hair, nearly pulling it off her skull.
He slapped her across the face and left her hair, and she crashed to the floor with shaky teeth. Her peeled skin pressed to the floor, forcing her to grit her teeth. She swallowed her screams and struggled to stand.
“How dare you filthy garbage retaliate after I touched you? You are nothing more than a whore,” he yelled, kicking her with his leg. The back of her head hit the ground, causing her to scream.
Despite knowing how much trouble she was in, she would not tolerate any insults or bullying. ” I am not a whore; you are. I was brought to this pack as a rogue, as they thought, and I was supposed to be locked up with the rogues, but here I am, in the pack house in prison and being harassed.” She muttered, trying so hard to bear the pain and keep her tears from falling.
The Elders looked at her with surprise, “How dare she?” Civil Elder approached her in rage, pushing her with his leg and placing it on her chest.
“You are certainly not the typical rogues we see; I will make you suffer.” He threatens, pressing his leg against her chest. Her airway was becoming constricted, so she hit his leg at the same time to allow herself to breathe, but mocking grins escaped his lips.
She closed her eyes tightly and felt her claws emerge, sharp and long before the civil Elder could flee. She scratched his leg, tearing his skin in the process. When they realized what had happened, they screamed in horror and dashed to the civil elder, who was sobbing at the sight of his torn skin.
They were caught off guard. A rogue does not attack in human form; this has never happened since the origins of werewolves. Civil Elder’s leg was bleeding, but what surprised him was that his blood was turning black as it fell to the ground, which only happens when poison is present. They did not want to think in that manner. It exists only in their imagination.
Relation Elder immediately summoned the guards outside and directed them to take her. “She must be locked up alone and away from anyone’s sight,” he ordered as he picked up his phone to call his doctor.
“You are a bastard-all of you are.” Mavana spat, unsure where the confidence came from. It was not from her mind or brain, but she was pleased with it.
The relation Elder got to his feet in a fit of wrath, yanking Mavana by her hair and tightly gripping it, almost removing it from her skull. She felt all of her strength leave her as she let out painful screams. Her body and soul have lost a great deal of blood and strength as a result of the beating and torture. She was so exhausted that she was unable to cry out or respond in any way. She fell unconscious.
“Now, pull her away!” Relation Elder screamed at the standing guards. They hurried to obey and roughly dragged her out. They went through the main entrance, already forgetting that people should not see them.
While inspecting the pack house, Beta Frank noticed the three guards and exclaimed, “Hey, what are you guys doing? Who are you pulling?” He inquired. The guards moved swiftly to form a circle and hid Mavana in the middle.
“We were just discussing.” With a nervous smile, the first man answered, “They know the consequences of following the Elders’s order, especially now that they intend to remove the Alpha from the throne.”
“Guards, come down here.” Beta Frank called. He had already seen part of Mavana’s face before they circled. He had noticed strange movement since they said the rogue fainted. He wanted to see for himself, so he began the inspection.
Five to six guards rushed down from a corner, and the three others were terrified as they all went down on their knees, revealing the unconscious Rogue with her skin destroyed. Despite her rogue status, Beta Frank feared and pitied her.
“Take them down to Prison 4, they will confess in front of the entire pack in the next few hours.” He authorized three guards to apprehend them, while the other two carried Mavana down to her previous prison.
Unbeknownst to them, one of the Elders’ spies was eavesdropping. She fled to the elders and reported the situation, explaining that the Beta was extremely angry.
“We can not pass up a chance. We should show them your wounded legs and use them to lie against her.” Before speaking with the Civil Elder, the Relation Elder instructed the lady to leave.
” What are you saying? I can not let myself get to that point of weakness and petty behavior; it is just a wounded leg, not a wounded ego.” He blatantly refused, his face turning very pale. It would be a shame for him to come forward and say that a common rogue had scratched him. He knew about the Relation Elder plan and would not submit to it.
“So, what action do you want us to take? Those guys will say everything” Relation Elder sighed and rubbed his temples with frustration.
“That should be the least of our problems; there is always a solution to a problem.” Finance Elder smirked at whatever idea was running through his mind.
*****
The town crier had already announced the news and the time to everyone in the Pack, and they all obeyed and arrived. The peak pack was already full as they awaited the next event.
Beta Frank was the first to appear. He greeted the crowd with traditional and normal greetings before explaining the situation.
“The captured rogue was kidnapped by our guards,” he said, eliciting surprised and unbelievable gasps and whispers from the entire room.
“We have decided that they should come and explain why before we find an appropriate punishment for them.” The crowd agreed as they waited for the Guards.
The three guards were dragged out and pushed to their knees while facing the judging, disappointed, and murderous eyes of the crowd. The first one was about to speak when he began coughing. His cough became so severe that he began coughing blood.
Everyone was perplexed, while the other two were terrified. Some guards rushed to his side to suppress the cough, and multiple arrows flew at them, piercing them through. It wasn’t an attack, Beta Frank was very sure of that.
