Chapter 3 Getting Over Him

ALICIA'S POV

I didn't think I could cry anymore. I sat in the dungeon with chains on my hands like I was a slave as I stared into the darkness surrounding me. I had been such a fool.

I had lost everything Father had worked so hard for just because I was stupidly in love. Henry had betrayed me in the worst way possible. He rejected me, stripped me of all my rights, and gave the instruction for me to be exiled.

It was known all over the pack how dangerous the rogues were. They didn't hesitate to kill and eat any lone wolf they found roaming around. If a weak omega like me was exiled there, it would only be a matter of hours before they found me and used me for dinner.

The thought of it made me shudder and I regretted my entire life's decisions at this instant. This was the surprise he had for me? It was memorable indeed. But I would have rather died in my nightmare than want to experience this.

Suddenly, the dungeon gates opened and I squinted my eyes to adjust to the light that entered into the dark cave. Guards walked in with stoic expressions on their faces as they headed toward me and I let out a sigh of defeat.

It was over. I was done. This was my last day on earth. But that didn't mean I wouldn't fight for myself. I would fight for my freedom. I would fight to survive. And if I win, I will get my revenge.

They grabbed my hands and pulled me up but I didn't put up any kind of struggle. I was too weak to do that anyway. I had always heard of werewolves getting rejected but I had no idea it would be this painful.

Especially for a weak omega like me.

Dragging me out of the dungeon, I was met with Henry's smug face as he stood by the side and stared at me with mockery. He came close to me, but the moment he opened his mouth to say something, I spat on his face, making sure the spit was huge enough to stain his face for the rest of his life.

He moved to slap me but my next words had him freezing as he stared at me.

"That's the only thing you know how to do, isn't that right? You're nothing but weak as well. You wouldn't have made it here without me. So who's the weakling between you and me?" I spat in anger and he slowly wiped the spit off his face before rubbing it on my clothes with a disgusted look plastered on his face.

"It's not my fault you're weak and stupid, Alicia. I came to bid you farewell as a loving boyfriend but you just had to be so stupid as usual." He said as he looked at me with contempt before stepping back. "Take her away and make sure she dies in your presence before you return here. Let her know who's weak and who's strong." He ordered as he smirked in amusement and I wanted to curse at him, to scream and beg, but I kept it all in my chest.

I had to survive. I had to make him regret his decision to mess with me. I had to make him regret insulting my father. I would make them all pay.

I was still in chains when they dragged me out of the palace and everyone watched me as they took me away. How could they let this happen to me?

If only Father was here... I wanted to hug him tightly. Maybe dying wouldn't be such a bad option. I would meet with him again.

I had no idea how long we walked until we finally got to the place surrounded by fog. It was chillier than usual and I shuddered as the cold seeped into my bones.

We continued walking until the men behind me decided to have a break. My legs were already so numb from walking for so long so I gladly collapsed to the ground in relief.

Suddenly there was an eerie silence. One that sent chills running down my spine. I looked around when I realized that we weren't alone. That was when it dawned upon me that we were in the rogues' territory.

"We have to leave now." I heard one of the guards as I struggled to get up.

"The alpha asked us to be sure she was dead before we returned. We can't just leave-"

I froze when I heard what sounded like a sword slicing through someone's body. Then there was blood and I nearly let out a scream when the head of the guard rolled over to my feet.

"No, please don't-" The second guard tried to beg but the sword was stabbed into his heart while I stared in shock.

I had to run. I didn't want to die like that...

I turned around and ran, not knowing where I was going. Someone lunged at me from behind, and I turned to block the hit with my hands, and to my relief, it snapped the chains into two, freeing my hands.

I might be a weak omega but I could fight when my life was in danger. Father, then, used to train with me when he was alive and now was a good time to put all that practice to good use.

I sighted a fallen sword by the side and quickly dived to get it just in time to block the next attack against me. I fought with all my might, adrenaline coursing through my body like never before.

However, I was only an omega and they kept coming after me in hoards, leaving me no way to escape. When the rogue behind me aimed for my neck with his sword, I knew that I was fucked and this was my end.
