Chapter 2.

Mira’s POV

His words rang continuously in my ears. My vision remained blurry for the rest of the night. The transportation was so difficult. I totally sprung awake when we arrived at the Stone Creek pack.

Surprisingly, Arianna was alive, and she wasn't bound like the rest of us. My heart pounded hard when I saw her whispering words to Alpha Harrison. He was smiling, slicing an apple with a knife and eating as Arianna spoke to him.

My stomach growled with disgust and I felt like I'd vomit.

“You all are welcome to the Stone Creek pack.” Someone else said, standing before the omegas that had been brought. I knew everyone that was tied, but I barely spoke with them.

I was always secluded in the pack because I was too good to be spoken with, and too horrible to be anywhere else.

What could Arianna be doing with him? Did she sell the pack out? Did she start this bout of madness? Is she the one that has caused me so much trouble?

Or maybe he just wants to make her his Luna? I thought to myself. Arianna had always been the prettier one. She had a slimmer body, but with curves that'd make any man look twice at her and drool. She would wink at men, and they'd be falling at her feet.

I always imagined what it must be like to have such beauty.

“You will do the dishes in the morning, clean the room you're assigned to and…” the same person kept on instructing us on what to do.

The air felt fresh although they seemed to be cold blooded killers, and for a while, it felt like I'd have a good life in this place.

“Now rise, you will be led to the place where you would…” he was saying when the Alpha cut him off.

“Bring that one here.” He growled, pointing at me.

I immediately got weak in my knees, unable to properly process my thoughts. Did he just ask that I should be brought to him?

I had no strength, and fear overtook me.

“Which one, Alpha?” He asked, looking at every single one of us.

“That one with long hair and a battered face.” Alpha Harrison said.

We all had battered faces due to the intense struggle and tortures that we usually go through, but out of everyone one of us, he had no trouble singling me out.

He pulled me by my hair, and dragged me over to Alpha Harrison who wasn't looking.

“Jupiter, you have to be more careful about the way you handle ladies.” He hissed, pushing Jupiter off me.

In my books, that had to be the most anyone ever cared about me.

“Is she the one?” He asked Arianna, and I bent my head low, whimpering. Fear gripped my heart at the question. Arianna had never been up to any good.

“Yes, she is.” Arianna hissed, and I could hear the disgust that came from her voice.

“Take her to the torture room, I'll like to have a moment with her.” Alpha Harrison said.

The word torture made my head ring loudly. I could barely hear anything after that. Why did it have to be when I was so close to escaping and living my life out in peace?

Jupiter picked me up and was about to drag me out. I decided to speak up this time and beg for my life.

“Please.” I begged, forcing myself off Jupiter's grip. “I swear I didn't do whatever she said I did.”

“I'm very obedient, and I can do whatever chore you want me to do.” My voice broke, and tears rolled down my eyes. I can't go through whatever level of pain it is that he has planned in his head.

Alpha Harrison chuckled. I looked up at Arianna’s face, and she eyed me maliciously. I wondered why she had chosen to hate me so much when I had done nothing wrong in particular.

Alpha Harrison bent over, finishing off the apple. He passed over the knife to his right hand, and his grip on the knife strengthened.

“Why do you think I've commanded that you should be taken to the torture room?” He asked, running his hand through my hair.

“Because she must have lied against me.” I said, wiping my tears off.

I started shaking and whimpering when he started caressing my face with the blunt side of the knife. He moved his hand so slowly that it became very creepy.

“What lie do you think she told?” He said, now slicing the blunt side against my skin. I swallowed down in fear as my chest heaved and my body shook.

“That I… I… spilled… spilled… acid in her bath… to… to… hurt her?” I muttered and he chuckled.

“You did that?” He cackled, turning to look at Arianna. “She did that?”

“Yes, she did.” Arianna said bluntly.

“No, I didn't!” I snapped since my life was on the line.

“You might have fooled your parents, but you can't fool me.” Alpha Harrison laughed. “I've listened to your heartbeats, and she didn't spill acid in your bath, and if anything, you spilled it in hers, and then accused her.”

“Okay, you caught me.” Arianna said, rolling her eyes and folding her arms.

“I love that kind of evil.” He cackled again.

“What then did she say?” I whimpered as tears welled up in my eyes.

“That you are the one thing I detest the most in the world and would give my whole life to destroy.” He growled.

“An omega?” I asked, and he cackled, shaking his head.

“Worse… a rogue!” He snapped, and my legs shook.

“I've barely been a rogue for a day.” I cried. “I can work in your pack, please…”

“Whether a day, or a year, or ten years, you are still a rogue!” He snapped, turning the knife to its sharp side.

“Please…” I begged as tears rolled down my eyes.

Alpha Harrison stood up without cutting me, and then he sighed.

“The full moon is in two days.” He chuckled. “You will be mated with by the strong ones in the pack, and when you get pregnant,”

He paused, letting my thoughts wander around as I imagined the horrific words that'd proceed from his mouth next.

“I will kill you and whatever little evil bastard is inside you.” He said, and my stomach gurgled. My heart dropped to my stomach, and my vision darkened.

“Take her to the torture room!” Alpha Harrison commanded.

Arianna spitefully walked towards me as Jupiter yanked me up.

“One way or another, I will be the end of you.” She whispered in my ears.
