Banished

VALERIE~~

My eyes burned with tears as I pushed myself into my silent home. It was one of the numerous things my parents had left for me before their death.

The house was one I had grown to love and cherish. Even my friends, Analisse and Rendall admitted to how cool the building was but right now I'm alone and desolate in that very building which was once a lively place.

I was totally clueless on what to do next. I can't possibly keep living here, around my friends after knowing the bitter truth but it wouldn't be easy trying to leave since the building was my parent's.

I was still thinking about that when my phone beeped. It was a big announcement from the pack house. The Luna's coronation. My tears threatened to fall but I wasn't ready to give in to the torment.

'I'll be fine on my own' I reassured myself as I gulped down a bottle of wine.

My door suddenly barged open and a number of guards swam in, shocking me to the core.

"What the hell is going on?" I yelled but no one replied. Two of the guards suddenly grabbed me and pulled me out of the house.

I kept struggling with them until they got to their destination. The pack house.

Now I was kneeling right in front of Adam. The son of a bitch! Only good riddance was keeping me from hitting life out of his sinfully handsome face.

"My heart thugged at my chest heavily as I saw him face me with one smirk, totally void of remorse.

"What do you want from me, you cheat!" I muttered in distress as fear settled within my guts. A gathering or summon in front of the Alpha means trouble, so it made me weak to the knees to think I was kneeling down right in front of him like a criminal caught in action.

"Your number of offenses within just a day of finding out about my true Luna is threatening, Valerie, but I still wish I could overlook things for your sake.

"I get that you're so offended that I had chosen your friend over you as my Luna but you can't fit in as the Luna of this pack. You are an Omega who can't shift! You're too weak but Analisse is the perfect definition of a complete Luna" he explained vividly and my tears flew to the surface.

Does he have to remind me of that? When he had always told me how less he cared about me not being able to shift.

He had became my friend knowing that and he had promised to protect me no matter what, but now this?

"I understand you completely, Adam. Can you please let me go now? I'll be fine on my own" I whispered, dabbing gently against my tears.

"I'm not done with you yet, Valerie" he thundered, sending shivers down my spine. It was the first time he had raised his voice to yell at me.

"I thought of how I could be of help to you, Valerie. Then I thought of making you my mistress. Only then can you be save in this pack" Adam said silently.

"Being wolfless is a disadvantage to you, chica. Asides that, I can't deny the fact that you'd fit in as my mistress. If we have a deal, all you'll always need to do is warm my bed while I protect you" he added and the urge to puke suddenly took charge.

"You mean I should be your whore?" I asked in disbelief and he nodded shamelessly.

"Why don't you ask your favorite mate to be your whore? Why must it be me?" I asked as tears formed layers within my eyes.

"You don't need to deny he fact that you wanted me as much as I do, and that you still do. This is just going to work out for your good" he whispered, trailing a finger over my bare shoulder.

"And if I refuse?" I uttered without blinking and his gaze pierced into mine. His fingers digging into my skin painfully as he pulled me close.

"You'll have to leave this pack, forever!" He whispered and I bit my lips hard to keep me from trembling.

Leaving the pack would take a big toll on me but I would rather leave than live with someone who betrayed me without thinking of how horribly he had hurt me.

Who was he kidding?

A deal to become his whore? While the witch orders me around as the Luna?

I fidgeted for a minute or so before matching his gaze.

"I will never be your whore, Adam" I told him sternly and he raised his brows.

"Really?"

"Then I'd assume you're willing to leave?" He asked and I agreed without hesitation.

"I would have no problem leaving as long as I sold the building for a good price" I started thinking within myself until his voice interrupted me.

"I, Adam Farkas, the Alpha of Crescent Moon pack, announces your banishment from this pack. You, Valerie Steele shall leave without taking anything from the pack" he said immediately after confirming my decision.

"But... " I tried to protest but Analisse suddenly appears out of nowhere, grinning from ear to ear.

"Thanks for deciding to leave Val, you're a good friend after all" She said silently and I scoffed.

If only I could just grow fangs and dig out her lungs.

"I had always wanted that building of yours but you're finally letting it go so easily. Thanks for that" she added and lips trembled. My legs shook at her last statement.

"I... I" I tried talking but only a sob managed to leave my lips.

"You should leave now before the guards help you" Adam muttered sternly and I turned to leave immediately.

To hell with him and Analisse!

To hell with his reign as the Alpha!

To hell with everything concerning Adam Farkas and Analisse Clinton! They'll surely pay for everything I had gone through.
