Contracted to the wrong Alpha
Chapter 21
****
Lilia’s Pov
His words sank deep into my soul like a heavy stone that dropped with force, causing my stomach to rumble in pain as I stared at his perfect sexy face which was now like a demonic Prince to me.
He didn’t waver, he didn’t even think first before deciding. It was as if he was ready for this to happen so that I’d be taken away from him.
My throat felt so dry that it itched and the hot tears that flowed from my face made me feel so shitty and helpless. The moment Lex made that pronouncement, I was dragged into the midst of the crowd under the Blue bright moon.
What was supposed to be a happy celebration turned out to be a curse.
My curse.
Maybe Tessy wasn’t wrong after all, maybe I was truly cursed. And all of this seemed to happen the day I found out about my scarred relationship with Felix.
I wish I never knew about it, maybe things would have continued to be blissful and I wouldn’t have gotten expelled.
I would have been preparing to graduate this year and Move to Chicago to make Alliances and affiliates with my fashion Line.
But what good could it have done to me if not to damage my soul in the future?
I didn’t know where I was being taken until we went to an open arena that almost looked like a stadium.
Wait!
Panic courses through me as I remembered what Alveria had said about being in a spar with a warrior and if I’m not wrong this should be the training ground.
“We-can’t-fight-Lee.” My insides quaked terribly and she felt every panic coursing through me.
The people that were supposed to be celebrating the Blue Moon Ritual were now gathered around to witness my downfall and Alveria was now walking around and giving orders like the Queen she was, a cold Jezebel hiding in the form of being the Pack’s Priestess.
“We’ll continue the Blue Moon Ritual after the training. We’ve only done the sacred Intercession and Floating candles, what’s left to do is the Blue Moon Ball and accepting the Alpha’s Luna.”
She said and I felt a painful bite sting in my heart.
Fuck!!
This woman just didn’t want me to be Luna, that I know of.
I won’t just get beaten to Pulp but be sent to the dungeon while another woman graces the night.
“I’ll choose Gracie to spar with her, this is supposed to be a punishment and I’ll see it as training if she needs to survive what the dungeon holds for her. She’s the youngest warrior in the pack. There is no yielding in this one until the first person draws blood.
She made the statement and I was forced to look at my right only to see the most heartbreaking scene ever. My mother was clutching to my father to do something, she was sobbing so quietly but I could feel every heart-wrenching pain in her.
I wonder how things turned and changed so quickly but the first punch on my jaw sent my wolf growling.
Fighting means that we’ll have to shift, which is something that I won’t do. I’d rather die than expose my wolf to the world.
The curse Inflicted on her gave a rogue forbidden color with very dark eyes that disfigured her sight, her sense of smell was taken, and being exposed might get her killed. Either by nature or by this people stare at me once they discover who I am.
Gracie lunged at me again without making me recover from the punch, sending an uppercut to make me land ferociously on the grassy field, my backbone earned a crack, My mum wailed frustratingly and I was getting weaker for my opponent who smirked.
Her attacks were so great and forceful.
It’s been ages since I trained, I had no idea how Jax had taught me to defend myself. Being with the humans killed the little skill I had in fighting.
My Betrothed in Midnight Shade Pack had been a warrior too, a very flexible one who would tell me that his Luna shouldn’t be weak. He would train me in the early hours of the first sunrise and would train me in the evening with my wolf.
Jax was smart, intelligent, and had his standards and he wanted me to be that way too. I didn’t know if he liked me but I knew he wanted the best for me.
But until that fateful day I got raped and exposed, I saw how hurt and withdrawn he became.
Even when I was cursed and castigated, he didn’t do anything and watched me leave.
Stupid weak motherfuckers!!
They won’t find out what has happened as long as it has to do with the Laws.
Lee growled within but she’s been quiet, she won’t say a word which scares me.
Her muteness was scary and when she got angry, she snapped.
Gracie jumped high to duck me with her legs and I missed it, caughting a hold of her leg to tumble her face to the field and I used my elbow to give a straight punch to her back.
Hearing her yelp in pain encouraged me, she almost caught my neck with my wrists but I was quick to drive a punch to her nose to her instead and I saw it.
Blood.
I sighed in relief and shifted from her, I didn’t know how I did that but she fucking bled first and lost in my overwhelming feeling of triumph, I got careless. Absent-minded that I didn’t see when she uprooted a handful full of stubborn grass and sent the stony sands flying into my eyes in rage.
I screamed in terror and shrieked and before I knew it, she shifted before me and sank her claws deep into my abdomen, howling in anger and giving me a heavy hit with her paw.
I screamed in terror, I was in hot searing pains that disabled my system.
She didn’t stop, she was coming after me and I managed to shift from her sandy brown wood with silver eyes. I was so unaware of the crowd and everyone else aside from the fact that I might die if I don’t run from this place.
But my legs are broken from her attack, oh Lordy!
She snared her Sharp fangs and was ready to finish my entire existence with her with her great heavy dangerous body on mine when Lee got so angry.
I was too weak to stop her, I was”
My bone cracked and I gasped.
No Lee!!
I cried and I realized I couldn’t control my body, she was mad at everything and she’s definitely lost her mind.
Another part of my bone rearranged but Gracie was too close and in an unexpected flash, I shifted, sprouting my white fur and tail and Lee took over. She gave a loud angry Howl at Grace whose fangs were ready to sink on me and in a one heavy deck from Lee, Gracie went flying in the air, and landed with a Great thud. And just when Lee was about to go after her, Alveria yelled.
“That’s enough!”
But Lee wasn’t having any of it, Gracie would have stopped when I drew the first blood but she didn’t, she broke the Law and Lee said she was going to break it too until we heard a loud gasp from the crowd.
“She’s a cursed Rogue!”
“Oh my God! How did she end up here!”
Lee stopped, suddenly feeling terrible and the realization hit me so hard on me.
I just exposed my wolf to the world and she’s damn fierce and powerful!!
