Maria walked around her room in a state of confusion, she was angry that the alpha decline her request. Also she was finding it difficult to believe the alpha erratic behavior, she try to corner why the alpha has chosen her instead of Daphne , since the alpha still loved Daphne so much, but she is unable to give an alternate answer to the question which roam around her mind without a good reasonable answer .
Maria walked backward with her leg shaking and her whole body filled with a bundle of nerves. She was so damn confused and hurt that she forgot the happiness she felt after being chosen by the alpha .
Angrily she kick her foot sternly on the edge of the bed , her foot hit so hard on the iron erect against the bed , she scream violently arousing the anger in her. she regret hitting her dam leg on the bed angrily, she take a sit and also she pulled out her shoes to see the redness in her foot . she yelled cursing the bed ,
She blamed Daphne for this while trying her best to control her anger.
Maria winced in pain as she wore her black fitted heels, which expose her tiny , well rounded foot . the heel matches well with her Candice gown which fitted her perfectly, exposing a small portion of her smooth skin and her breast standing erected in the front , she wanted to seduce Her Mr alpha with her dressing but she ended up having a hit argument with him concerning her sudden interested on Daphne , which happen to be fake and a threat to her due to her elder brother who had suddenly show kin interest on Daphne . She loathe Daphne so much, The even her present causes her to puke . Her sight irritate her so much and having her brother who once despise her , care about her now birder her so much . She detest the actual fact that , she ended up losing to Daphne all the time and that is the main reason she doesn’t want her near Alpha Ben anymore, now that the alpha Hate her appearance;she would use the opportunity to create more distance between them while she make space for herself in alpha Ben heart.
Whatever the reason is, she don’t care to know but so long alpha Ben had chosen her as his mate and the Luna of the shadow moon pack, she would not hesitate to back out of the game now, even when the alpha had no feeling for her , she was bet on having him and getting the shadow moon pack, who happen to be the strongest pack in the neighborhood, becoming the Luna to the most respected pack , would make people what to fear and respect her, that is a chance that she is not ready to lose .
Doing anything in her power to stay within power to her , was a way of justifying how strong she was and how capable she was to deal with the other wolf .
She would not want to have anyone around, who would want to jeopardize her possible chance. Now that Daphne show up and suddenly she was taking her place , she will went out of her way to get want she wanted , even if it means killing Daphne she would do so without no hesitation, Maria sigh taking a sit after a very long time of being in her thought, she decided to let everything go.
At the alpha Meeting room, where the elders are all gather ; sitting together with a horrible face , each having a confused mind , mixed with anger and doubt but none was ready to let it all out, since they are all scared of what the alpha might do to them . each of the elder take a turn in staring deeply at each other , each giving a sign to the other for them to speak up but none was giving in , Austin stood firmly closed to the Alpha but with a stern face , he was doing his job diligently as the alpha Beta, his heart was still filled with anger and pain, ever since their last argument, they had never talked to each other or chat like they used to, the distance between them had grow wider ;that even the alpha was left to wonder if truly Austin was his best friend, they are gradually growing apart since none is ready to accept each other term. Alpha Ben stares at his Beta , who stood far from him, with his sword held by his right hand and his other hand which her crossed at his back, Another look at his best friend alpha Ben sighs , His heavy sighs draw Austin attention to him. Both maintain a steady eye contact for sometime, before he spoke up .
“Greetings elders of the council, it is a great pleasure to have you all here once again.”he spoke , with the audacity. The meeting was declared open , giving room to the elders to err their opinion.
“Your maid, seems to be having all the freedom in this pack, especially to the extent of raising her hands on the future Luna, yet her punishment wasn’t severe.”One of the elders spoke up with anger, backing the other elders who deliberately added their own opinion angrily .
Alpha Ben watches them as they all demand that he punish Daphne severely. They all think he was being lenient with her , despite all she had done , yet he still chooses to keep her by locking her up without no food and that, they consider to be no punishment.
Just when he wanted to make a sudden decision, a message popped into his phone. He looked at his elders fairly, before taking his eyes back to his phone . He made small growls . Suddenly he ordered one of his warriors to the cell room, after sometimes Daphne was brought before the elders .
“I believe you all see the culprit now, you can all decide what to do with her.”He commanded , his eyes which were situated on Daphne . Daphne looked at her with anger , her eyes filled with hatred and pain and yet she refused to show her weakness.
Austin’s soft spot felt bad for her, he wanted to reprimand the elders but he quickly held his emotions , before they took the better part of him.
“She should be severely flocked , and also since she had nothing to do rather than laying her hands on the future Luna, she should be made to serve out boys and also work as the club attendant.”a member of the elder , in the council added , he stares at all the other members who solemnly agree to it immediately.
“As pronounced, so shall it be . Take her away and make sure she is well dealt with ”The alpha commanded , Daphne was dragged out to the center of the pack, where she was greviously tied to a pole.
The hard cane , pierce through her skin as the warrior weep her aggressively, she winced in pain as she fought back her tears , her whole body responded to the pain and yet she stand firmly without blinking her eyes , Alpha Ben watches her from behind with pains , he wished there would be something he could do to stop this but none was under his power,
Another message pops into his phone.
“Well done , keep being a good alpha.”He read silently, he turned to loon around to catch a glimpse of whoever this is, but there was no sign of anybody around him.
How this anonymous knows so much about him , is what he could not understand.
Filled with pain and anger , he walked out of the scene taking the road that led to his inner chamber .
The wolf warriors continued to weep Daphne’s aggressively, until she became so damn weak and she was taken back to the cell room . She was handled aggressively by them .
The only woman in the cell room rushed to her , immediately she was thrown into the cell room . She smiled at the old woman , who ended up admiring her bravery . Despite be weep heavily and with the blood gushing from her body, she still wears a dam good smile on her face . She watches the beautiful blood stain , girl smile and suddenly she hugged her so deep. Austin rushed to the Cell , he walked in to see her dirty and unclean Daphne is with the blood in her skin, he felt the pain in his heart a Dm his hatred for Alpha Ben multiply, what his reason of being this unfair towards her was , he refuse to listen to it, he touches Daphne with a worried look on his face.
“Hey man, stop this look already I’m fine.”Daphne assured with a broad smile on her face. Maria was dam angry ; watching from afar and seeing Daphne still smile despite the punishment, made her more angry and out of control.
“She seems more stronger than you, you cause her pain and yet she still smile happily, that is her power over you.”The voice spoke from behind, she was startled by the cold voiced and she turn to see Josiah behind her, she felt scared but she swallows hard enough to show she was not scared of him .
“What the hell are you doing here?”she asked with anger, but Josiah’s face was replaced with a smile .
“Honey , don’t get over work up, despite what you do, she still beat you to it , I’m proud of her .”he whispers into her ears, she boils in anger .
