Mated To My Enemy's Enemy

Lilly stared blankly at the figures of Alberto and the lady he had just brought with him, and introduced to the pack members as his mate. At first she couldn't comprehend what was happening, until he announced that she was the woman he would be marrying. Clara was the lady's name and she's a daughter of an Alpha of a pack which was very far from their own.

Lily stood mindlessly, watching as the pack members gave them their blessings.

'What's happening?' Her mind was blank as she still couldn't figure out why Alberto would do such a thing to her; bringing in another woman to marry when he had her. She wondered why he would stab her in the back by introducing another woman after he had promised to make her his; his Luna.

Alberto had just succeeded his father, who was murdered three month ago. After becoming the Alpha of the pack, White moon, the pack members started pressuring him to choose a Luna, the one who would help him during his reign. When Alberto didn't say anything to her about marrying her, she thought he wasn't ready. And when it's time to marry, she thought he would be choosing her. However, what she was seeing was totally different from what she had hoped.

She watched him smile brightly and widely at her, meanwhile that smile was once hers. His hand clasped with the lady's as if he was scared of letting her go.

'Is she that special to him?' Her heart bled, and anger flooded in her; it's like her heart was ripped apart.

He's the man she'd given her life to: the only man she trusted blindly. The man who she believed would stand with her even when everybody was against and abused her, and also called her the daughter of traitors. She wondered what she'd done to deserve that cruel punishment. She wanted to cry but she couldn't afford to shed any tears among the pack members, since none of them knew of their relationship.

Alberto noticed her and excused himself, finally leaving his new found mate. He went to her, and whispered to her, 'come with me', and then went another direction.

'Of course, he must have a reason for doing this. There must be a reason.' She told herself, trying to hold onto something, at least for some hope.

She believed that the Alberto she know would never do anything to hurt her, he cherished and loved her. He'd promised to love her even when people hated her, he'd given her that assurance, and she really trusted him.

Then she followed him, curious to hear what his reason might be.

Alberto and her had been together for two years already, after he came back from wolf training which was meant for future alphas. During the years they had been together, she'd doted on him, believing that he was the only person she needed.

"What's happening, Alberto?" "Who's that woman?" She questioned immediately they got to a corner where it was safe enough for them to talk. She couldn't have any patience, it's like her heart was about to explode from anger.

"Calm down, Lilly," he replied in his usual voice, calm and sweet. Hearing his voice calmed her down a little.

That's the man she loved.

"It's not what you think," he continued.

"If it's not what I think, then tell me. Who is she?" She asked, almost in a whisper.

"She is..." He trailed off, making her heart beat faster. He linked his lower lip, something which was his habit whenever he was nervous. He was hesitant to tell her, but he knew that eventually she would know. "She's my Luna." He confessed, and her heart sank.

A single tear ran down her right cheek. Upon hearing his words, it's like her heart was shattered into pieces.

"What... What do you mean? She's your Luna?" "Then what about me?" She demanded, her voice was shaky. She's curious to know of his plan for her, or had he forgotten of their plans for the future.

"Both of us can still continue our relationship. You can be my mistress." He replied.

His words were like arrows, pierced furiously into her heart.

"Mistress?" Her heart bled as she repeated the word. "Is that all I am to you? I thought you said you love me, that you want me. So why?" Her voice was desperate, hoping to hear him say that everything was a joke.

He's silent, raised his head, and stared at above. Then in a swift moment he looked at her with a stern face, the one she couldn't remember of seeing.

"Because you are the daughter of traitors, and you are weak. You are not worthy of me." He answered blankly, and without knowing tears streamed down her face.

Hearing those words from him was very painful, more than she had heard people calling her.

'So I was wrong all this time, I thought he wasn't one of them. I thought he really loved me and would do anything for me, just like he'd promised.' She told herself.

"Is that what you thought of me? The daughter of traitors? A weak girl?" Her voice shook as she questioned him.

"Isn't that who you are? Aren't your parents the traitors who almost got every pack members killed before they met their worst end?" He said, gritting his teeth.

Her heart sank at every word he spoke. "What do you think all the members will say? That I decide to take an outcast as my Luna? That I choose the daughter of traitors as a mate? Never..." He growled, "I will never become a mockery to my own pack."

She stared down, fixing her eyes on the floor with tears falling non stop from her eyes.

'I didn't know I was such a fool. I was nothing but a mere omega, the lowest of the pack, dreamed of having a future with the future Alpha of our pack. I've realized how foolish I'd been.'

But the fact that he chose another woman over her and dare called her what she hated to hear, 'daughter of traitors', made her very sad. He betrayed her, he betrayed her love for him.

“Be my mistress, the..."

“No. I can't, " she cut him off, and anger flooded in him.

She couldn't be his mistress, didn't he care about her feelings?

"Since you can't be my mistress, just leave." She heard him say, and immediately raised her head to look at him. She then noticed the look on his face, she realized that the man who loved her had gone, remaining a devil.

"What did you say?" She asked.

"Leave the pack. I can't have you around her, who knows what you may do to her if you can't let go of your jealousy." He said and turned to leave but she quickly grabbed his hand.

"Please Alberto, you can't do this," she pleaded. "You know I have nowhere to go, please."

"So?" He glared at her, pulling his hand out her grasp. "I should have done so before, since nobody wants you in the pack. Leave or else I will order your execution.”

"Please don't do this. Have you forgotten our love? Your promise?"

"Love?" He chuckled. "I never loved you, you are nothing to me. I only used you to satisfy my wolf desire. You are nobody, and you can't find anyone who will cherish you. You will only be used." He said.

"Please..." She broke into sobs. She grabbed him again.

Alberto got angry then he used his wolf force to push her away. Her back hit the wall behind her and she slumped down onto the cold floor.

Who knew the man she trusted so much would be so cruel that he would dare to hurt her.

'He'd never loved her, but only used her.' She cried.

She felt hurt, she was nothing to him but a tissue paper, after using then discarded. However she wasn't going to let it go, he betrayed her and hurt her.

Since she'd no relatives in the pack, she'd become an outcast since the death of her parents.

Wincing from the bruise in her arm which she discovered when he pushed her away, she stood from the cold floor, and suddenly a girl bumped into her .

"Get lost you fool, traitors' daughter," the girl growled at her then ran away.

That was how she's treated since seven years ago, she's nobody to them.

Feeling so weak from the cry, she staggered out of the place and without even going to her place to pack her belongings. She went out of the pack community with a heavy heart.
