Chapter 11: Chapter 11

Elena.

It’s been months now, I and Scotty were becoming fond of each other, he cared for me so dearly and treated me with so much kindness.

We haven’t been able to talk about his girlfriend, how he’s able to see her and how this whole situation has been affecting their relationship.

But I was really concerned, sometimes I hear him shout on the phone, other times he’s talking in whispers, rushing someone on the other end.

It felt like their relationship was having a real hard time surfing the very circumstance which was placed before us.

Scott had brought up the idea that we go visit my parents for a while and stay theirs, reliving a very simple lifestyle in a little house filled with nothing but love.

I wasn’t angry with my parents anymore, I let it slide and yes I sis miss them deeply. I wondered if they missed having me around or if anything reminded them of me.

We both agreed to do it but had a really hard time picking out dates. There was always a lot of activities, functions and ceremonies going on in the Alphas mansion. We were obliged to attend .

No one would dare be absent , unless he or she was ready for the terror that came with Alpha Damien’s wrath.

*********

I was terrified , as Scott pulled me away from the scene, he didn’t say a word, to me, he flung me on the bed, I was in tears. But he was calm and silent.

He didn’t utter a word, he looked at me numbly. I expected him to have that look of disgust. But I couldn’t see it in his eyes. It was more of shame and disappointment.

I wanted to disappear. I watched him pace through the room, it was making me sick in my belly. I needed him to say something.

Scott threw my panties at me, his eyes red as blood. “ why , Elena?

Did you have to embarrass me so much? I haven’t even laid with you and yet you went ahead to lay with my brother, haven’t you git any shame?

I really though you were in my side, Elena.”

I shook my head, crying bitterly. I didn’t do it Scott, I’m telling you I didn’t do it.

He exclaimed; you didn’t do it, how is your pant and bra out of your body? Did he cast a spell on you? Answer me, Elena!!

Why won’t you let go off Elijah? He never wanted you then, he clearly passed you on to me without a second thought.

You think he automatically wants you now? Think Elena , think !

You are better than this and even smarter than him. He walked towards my bed, as he approached me , I sunk further into my bed.

He yelled, How could you let this happen . You are not a golden price to be won in the pun game. Grow up Elena ! His voice was steady, he commanded some sort of respect . I dreaded him at this very instant.

That’s the kind of man you want in your life? That’s the kind of man

I cried harder and even louder this time, my throat was sore and I couldn’t speak, my eyes hurt so much.

I don’t know what happened Scott. I’m speaking the truth. One minute we were talking in his chamber and then he offered me a glass of juice, I slept off and I still don’t know how.

I woke up to you standing in the room with my pabt in your hands, I was set up .

Scott didn’t even flinch a muscle , he could hardly believe me whenever it had something to do with Scott, I hadn’t even been able to talk to him about what he saw months ago.

With all the happenings now, I don’t expect him to believe me or trust anything I say.

He glanced over at me for half a second.

He yelled out..That son of a bitch , he dare to lay his filthy hands on you ? Did he touch you ?

I don’t know Scott, I don’t know. I answered , my voice shaking and my breath uneasy.

Even though he didn’t believe me, I could sense that he was hurting too, he hated to see me cry and despised me for bringing shame to him.

He took one last look at me before storming out of the room and he didn’t even look back . I watched him mumble some words to himself on his way out.

I thought of what Alpha Damien would think of me now. He once called me a girl with morals and better than all the other wolves in the pack.

He envisioned me becoming a Luna and the leader of the she-wolves. I could care less about what Luna Sandra would have to say or should I say “ Sherlock” .

I was sure Luna Sandra and Elijah had plotted this. They hated seeing Scott and I happy. But this time I wasn’t going to let either of them get away with it.

They must pay dearly for their actions . I wasn’t going to have anyone ruin my name or destroy my personality. I wasn’t going to let that happen .

How much I hated Elijah. I couldn’t quantify how much I despised him. He stood there lying to my face that I forced myself on him . Did he hate his brother that much that he would do anything to bring shame to his brother ?

But why drag me into a feud between brothers. Why did he choose to tarnish me just to get at his brother. We were doing okay at the training ground.

I looked at Devon , but he bowed his head in disappointment. I wondered if Devon was in on it too. How could Elijah act so cruelly towards me?

I resented him. I couldn’t understand why he would lie to me about Love , only to treat me like a cheap piece of trash .

For some reason, I was glad I didn’t give into it at any point in time. Aside from trying to hurt his brother, I guess that was one of the reasons why he hated me so much.

Alpha Damien.

Silence!!!!!!!!

I’m sure you all know why we are gathered here today . It’s no news that we have rules in this colony .

We have lived by the rules and laws binding our Colony for hundreds of years.

These rules are an exception to no one. I am Aloha Damien Brook. I live by the truth and I can’t go back on my word.

Everyone in this colony, young or old, big or small, Lunas, zetas, betas and gammas, you all know the rules as you were made to memorize it at a very tender age.

Anyone who was caught mating with another who isn’t fated to her, what was the punishment due to that offense?

The crowd echoed “ her head shall be chopped off and the head left for the dark wolves to devour”

Bring out the culprit!

Everywhere went dead silent , I knew I commanded a lot of respect. My people loved me . They didn’t wanat this. I have forgiven a lot of people during my rule .

This was supposed to be a family affair. Sandra let this all spill

Out . She took the happenings in the mansion to the press.

Now my hands are tied. I couldn’t save my son from this shame and disgrace . He was weeping and this broke my heart .

It felt like I didn’t want this to happen , but that was just a part of me. The other part of me was eager to see her head go off .

Sandra had given me the idea , that to make this a lesson to everyone in this colony and at the same time him our Scott.

She asked that I give Scott the mandate to kill Elena. She proposed that it would be less hurtful for him than watching someone else do it .

Here , in this instant . I wasn’t sure that was such a good idea .

I wanted it all to stop but an Alpha never takes his word back.

I watched the guardsmen drag Elena . Her hands and legs were bound in shackles. She fell to the ground only many times that I could count. This law was stated but we’ve never actually stayed true to it up until this moment.

How the mighty had fallen. I heard Sandra say it.

I couldn’t believe her cruelty towards Elena . Maybe Sandra just cared for the land , she wanted to uphold the peace and unity. She didn’t want rules to be thrown out the window .

She wanted them to continue to dread me . She had a point in all of this . But I’ve never had to be cruel to get respect . I imagined what Scott’s mother would do or say to me .

How differently would she have handled the situation? I couldn’t take her side on this because she will surely be on her son’s side and there was no room to be biased .

Let loose the Uxoricide , they dressed Scott up. Covered his face with armor like he was getting ready for battle .

Elena’s parents ran to me ,they bowed before me in tears crying and kissing my feet , I was so heartless to pay deaf ears to them .

But Sandra ordered that they be taken away . I stood there watching the guardsmen set Elena’s head properly on the finely carved wood .

She didn’t look scared. As usual she stood tall. I admired her courage . I was getting weak with the whole display and I couldn’t wait for it to be over.

Elena Scott Damien!!

You are allowed to plead your case one last time . I said

Elena stuck with her story, she couldn’t remember what happened that day and she didn’t force Elijah into anything.

Elijah Damien Brooks . What do you have to say?

I am innocent of her accusations, you saw her naked in my room and I was fully dressed , didn’t you, he asked one of the guardsmen.

I turned to the murmuring crowd , what do all of you say about this ?

They echoed ; release the uxoricide. I washed my hands off the situation. I stepped back into my chamber.

There were tears in my eyes. I heard Sandra say; begin … I was deeply bitter .

I watched Scott from the window as he walked out with the silver cutlass in his hand and a gun with a bullet cast with silver . I watched him ready to kill his very own .

I couldn’t watch , so I looked away , buried my face in my bed .

Just then , I heard noises and everywhere seemed to have gone into disorientation and turbulence .

I lifted up my face and saw Scott walking into the scene, his hands were tied and his mouth shut .

I noticed someone else dressed in the same armor as Scott dragging Elena away . The guards tried their best to stop him but he seemed to have some sort of mystical powers.

Everyone scrambled to save their lives . The Gammas really didn’t fight. I think they knew something about this . Probably they were just happy that Elena wasn’t dying today.

I felt a bit of relief. I know she was being kidnapped but she didn’t die today and not by my word .

Sandra badged into our chamber . She was so furious , she was screaming at the top Of her voice. She would have been so please to see Scott kill Elena today .

I was beginning to look at Sandra differently, her cruelty was frightening and despicable. I didn’t trust her anymore.
