Chapter 47: Chapter 47

Selene

I was left in the garden in pain, and all I could do was stare at her. I feel my heart thumping heavily, and tears fall freely from my eyes. I couldn't believe that Freya was this cruel. I knew she was in pain, but she didn't care about me. I knew that she saw me as a rival, but that doesn't mean she should have left him. I had thought that Lucius would try to stay with me, but he didn't. I feel my heart ache from that. My eyes were puffy red due to the fact that I have been crying for some minutes now. I could feel my body shivering from the fact that I was left alone.

I felt like I had been abandoned by him, and I knew that was the truth. There was nothing else I could do other than sit down. I sat there for a while, and I suddenly started shivering again, and this time it was much worse than the first time. My lips were becoming pale, and all I did was curl myself up in a corner. All that happened earlier keeps replaying in my head. I felt my heart ache.

I sat there for what seemed like hours, and by that time the sun was up and the cold I was feeling earlier was gone. My eyes were still red, but I knew I had to do something. I have to leave this pack for good, and by the time I'm about to return, I will have my revenge. None of them would go scot-free. They will both pay for humiliating me. They made me seem like a fool; they didn't know what would happen; they would be shocked if I was to get my revenge, but first I need to go back home to clear my head.

I stood up from the floor, and I staggered up with full force. My eyes lit up as I stared around the place; the place looked refreshing. I couldn't help but admire the place. I didn't have the time to admire the place earlier, but now I do. A sad smile was plastered on my face as I stared around the place, and it soon vanished and morphed into that of anger. My eyes were filled with anger as the thought hit me. I couldn't believe that I was admiring what was done by Freya. I knew that this wasn't supposed to be it, but I can't help myself.

I feel like everything that Freya does isn't supposed to make me feel happy; I should feel angry whenever I see her or Lucius. I won't ever allow him to be with me, even if he loses in the duel. I knew that he was going to lose eventually since there are alpha's contesting in the duel and wanting to be her mate. I knew that he would be hurt in the end, but I doubt if he will ever listen to me. I knew for a fact that he isn't someone who listens easily, and that was what made me not persuade him. It will look like I'm so desperate, and I know that he can say whatever he wants, but there is no way I'm going to let that get to me.

I knew I would look cheap in his eyes, but I couldn't let anything happen to him. I knew that he wouldn't give up easily, even if he was to be beaten to death in the duel, which I don't want. No matter how angry I am, there is no way I would want to kill him, but I can still hurt him. There are many ways for me to hurt him without having to kill him, and that's what I'm going to do. I will make sure I make him go through the same pain I went through, and there is nothing anybody will do about it. I will make sure he regrets ever making me cry.

I knew that my words might sound cruel, but I was blinded by my anger. The hurt I was feeling had changed to hatred and anger, which seemed to be more fueled.

I walked toward the pack square, where the duel was taking place. I walked into the crowd, and I sat down quietly with anger. Anyone who sets his or her eyes on me will see how angry I am. I watched the Alpha's fight, and I couldn't help but smile in satisfaction, knowing that he would get hurt. I knew that there was no way he would be able to escape being hurt, and it made me feel more happy. I knew that whatever I feel right now can't be compared to what I will feel when I get my revenge personally. My eyes were filled with disgust. I couldn't help but feel the need to be here tomorrow. I knew that if I were here, it would be a lot more fun.

I stood up from the crowd, and by that time it was already evening, and the duel had come to an end. There are only a handful of alpha's left, and one would see that they aren't many. I knew that those that remain are nothing but strong alpha's; their glare was like it could take someone six feet under the ground.

I knew things might get out of hand, but I knew there was nothing I could do about it. I knew that even if I had the power to stop it now, there was no way I would accept that. I will make sure that they both stay apart. I stood up and walked out of the pack square, heading toward the pack's border to leave for my pack, when I felt the presence of someone behind me. I couldn't help but feel worried. I knew that the person might be Lucius, and I thought that he was here to apologize.

I kept on walking, showcasing my anger, but the person kept on trailing me, and I thought the person wasn't Lucius. I knew that I had no reason to be trailed by someone unless the person was Lucius.

"Don't think I will forgive too easily; you should know me better than anyone." I said that even though I have no intentions of forgiving him, my body was saying something different.

I could feel goosebumps on my body, but I didn't pay attention to them. My face turned red like a tomato, and I couldn't help but blush deeply, not knowing what to say or do. I turned back after seeing he was not replying with my face being tainted red, and my face dropped immediately after seeing who it was. The person who has been stalking me isn't Lucius, but someone else. My heart was filled with disappointment, and my eyes were filled with unshed tears as I stared at the person curiously.

"You seem to be waiting for Lucius," the man asked, and I stared at him confusedly, not knowing what to do or say. I felt my tongue being tied together.

"I came to inform you that Lucius's life is in danger; he will lose his life tomorrow. You should do your way by persuading him," I heard him say, and I sighed heavily, knowing he was right, but I couldn't help but wonder why he was saying all this.

I stared at the person, and I could see some familiarity in his eyes. I tried hard to remember his face, and then a gasp escaped my mouth. I bowed my head immediately out of fear. The person was one of the werewolf council, and I could feel shrills of fear run down my spine.

"Good evening," I muttered with fear etched on my face as I bowed my head. I knew that I could be dead any second from now because I didn't respect him as a superior. I knew that things might get complicated and that my alpha would be put in trouble. Alpha Raymond, who also happens to be my alpha, had told me that I shouldn't cause any problems that may reflect on him while I'm here, and I knew that this was one of them. I knew that if things got out of hand, then I might be getting killed, and not only that, but my alpha would be put in trouble.

"Don't worry, all you have to do is follow my order; you should go warn him about this, and it's left to him," he replied, and I rolled my eyes before I could stop myself.

"I can't do that; he has hurt me, and I don't want to have anything to do with him. I will be happy for his downfall," I said to him with my head bowed and my gaze hardened.

"Are you trying to defy my order?" he asked accusingly, and I sighed heavily.

"I won't dare try to defy your order; I will get that done now," I said, and I turned to leave, but he stopped me with his words.

"You should report back to me; I will be here waiting for me to leave," he said, now, order, and excusely, and I hurriedly walked away from him. When I was away from him, I breathed heavily.

I tried hard to concentrate on his scent, and I was glad to find him so easily. He happens to be with Freya at the garden where he left me in the afternoon.

"Lucius, we need to talk," I said to him immediately. I got to where he was totally ignoring Freya's existence.
