2. Betrayed By Loved Ones

SUSANNA…..

"Why, Jenny?" A sob rose in my throat as I asked her but she just smirked viciously.

"Jenny, why did you do this to me?" My voice was thick with tears.

"I have treated you as my sister for all my life. And in return, you betrayed me like this. Why? What did I do to trigger you to do such a heinous crime?" I yelled at her while my heart was wrenching with unbearable pain. There was a saying, 'From the physical pain, the emotional pain is ten times more painful.' And today I understood its meaning.

"You know, Su. I hate you. I just don't hate you, I despise your whole existence." Jenny yelled at the top of her lungs and I stared at her in disbelief. I couldn't think of the reason the person I have known as a sister figure for my whole life turned out to be the one who hated me the most.

"Darling, you can come out now. Now it's your time to show up." I felt a sting of curiosity and confusion when I heard her words. That means there was someone else helping her. But who?

My eyes went wide in astonishment and my heart stopped beating when I spotted an unexpected person walking in. I got the biggest shock of my life. My mind, heart, and body just froze. I wasn't in any condition to do anything nor I wasn't in any condition to think straight.

"Charles!!!" Only my lips moved but no sound came out of my mouth. My eyes were prickling with tears. This was something big that came to light now.

What I saw shocked me to the core. Because I saw Charles standing beside Jenny while wrapping his arm around Jenny's waist. Jenny tiptoed and kissed him on his lips. My wolf howled in agony as she felt her mate betray her. She was so weak that she just mourned weakly in the back of my mind. I could not believe what I was seeing. I wished it was a dream. But alas, everything was real and clear as crystal that my mate and best friend has been cheating on me.

I felt a big lump in my throat which made it hard for me to speak while I swallowed it. Because I wanted to know why they were doing this to me.

"Why, Why Charles?" My voice cracked as I was holding a sob back in my throat.

"Let me tell you something important today, Su. Charles was my mate. But we decided to separate to achieve our goal." This new information shook me from the inside. And I stared at them in disbelief.

I stared at Charles holding my tears back which were threatening to fall down. "I always consider myself lucky to have you in my life. You showered me with unconditional love. Then why did you betray me like this?" I yelled at him at the top of my lungs. I was looking into his eyes which were cold. It was the same eyes that used to sparkle with love and now staring back at me with no emotion but blazing with hatred.

He walked forward and stood in front of me. My eyes were burning with tears and my body was on fire as the silver started doing its work.

"For power." Saying that he stabbed me in the heart with a dagger making me gasp in agony. That dagger went inside my body like magic.

"What do you think? I love you. Huhh!" He laughed with sarcasm.

"Never."

"I never loved you. I only wanted your power and the Alpha position." His next words completely shattered me and fell to my knees.

"I was perfect for the Alpha position but your Asshole dad snatched the opportunity from me and announced you the next Alpha. Seeing no other way I choose you as my pawn. I showered you with fake love to gain your trust. So that one day I could use it against you. I could get your power and the position. I really feel pity for you, Susanna. You even go against your father for me."

He smirked at me. There was not a tint of remorse present on his face as he confessed his grave sins to me.

Rage rushed through me but I was too weak to take any action as I felt my soul slipping away.

Still, I scoffed at him. "I feel disgusted thinking I chose you as my mate. You aren't worth it."

Charles laughed at my words. "Who needs your love, baby? Though we were living as mates I never considered you as my mate ever. My mate was always Jenny who was fated for me. The baby you were expecting was a mistake. That's why I asked help from the rogue Alpha to finish you along with your child." His words fell like thunder on me.

"How can you be so cruel, Charles? It was your baby too. How can you kill an unborn baby? Didn't your conscience stop you once before doing such a heinous sin? You are a heartless beast." I yelled at him while crying but he stood there unaffected.

"If it wasn't Leo that day to rescue you from there, you would have been in heaven by now." I was shaken by the new discovery.

"Wasn't it you, who brought me back from the Rogue clan?" I wanted to reconfirm.

"Huhh! Do I look like a fool to you that I will bring you back when I was the one who sent you there?" So it was confirmed that it was Leo who saved me but why did he do that? Leo and I were never on good terms then why did he save me?

"You have fallen to such an extent just to get my powers? I believed you and you played with my feelings? I gave you my heart and you crush it under your feet? I give my soul to you and you planned to kill me? You even killed your own child. You have become so obsessed with getting power that now you have forgotten the meaning between right and wrong. I'm glad that Dad didn't choose you. Because he's not blind like me. I was so blinded by your fake love that I could not see your true face behind your fake one."

Tears were flowing from my eyes like a river. I frowned when I spotted some Witches there. They made witchcraft there and sat there to do something. I was confused and surprised at the same time. But when I felt my power coming out of my body it wasn't hard to understand what was going on there. Charles was taking my power.

I felt agonizing pain all over my body and I realized my time has come to leave this world. I stared at my murderers for the last time who were smiling at me triumphantly.

They looked ugly as their souls. I hate myself for loving such a heartless beast like Charles. I could not believe how I could trust such a scheming woman as a sister. How foolish I was to trust them and love them with all my heart for all my life? Only if I had seen their true faces earlier.

'I want them to feel the same pain I'm feeling.'

"Let's go, honey. Our mission is accomplished. We should make a move now." Clinging into Charles Jenny remarked in a honey tone and Charles nodded.

Then Jenny stared at me. "Goodbye, Bestie, we shall never meet again. I wish you rot in hell. " Venom was dripping through her words as she spoke.

"If I had a chance to change my life, then I would have corrected all my mistakes. I wouldn't have let them harm me again. I will make them pay for every dirty thing they have done to me." I watched them retreating back. My eyes were closing.

"Oh, Goddess, what did I do to deserve such an agonizing death? If this is the result of goodness, then people will leave this path of goodness. What sin did I commit because of which you are giving me such punishment? I admit I had committed a grave sin by rejecting your gift, my fated mate. But I was too naive to understand at that time what was right and what was wrong." I cried in guilt.

"Oh, Goddess, I apologize for neglecting your gift. Please forgive me. Now I have realized my mistake. I'm your child Goddess. Don't you feel pity for me? I have got the punishment for my actions. Please forgive me and give me another chance. One last chance. Please, Goddess." I cried asking for forgiveness in front of the Goddess.

I felt my body freezing making me paralyzed. I saw black dots dancing in front of my vision.

And suddenly I saw darkness engulf me in its embrace.
