"Anyone that doesn't want to ally with us, kill them all. It doesn't matter who they are" I ordered some of the rogues who were chosen to attack the remaining packs.
Why do you think I ended up this way? Hot-tempered, brutal, independent and Fearless. Yes, I had to adjust to life to survive. The world doesn't like weak, it's an actual disaster. Weakness is a disease that devours your every flesh, and sips your every last breath until you become lifeless and useless. I could take in any feeling, humiliation and pain, but definitely not rejection. It is the most brutal form of wickedness and punishment. No one deserves to be rejected, nothing, not even an animal. I was rejected!
I had to kill to survive, it doesn't matter who. I turned out to be a merciless leader that steps on the cruel and crush them with my feet. I am going to destroy all of the packs with the rogues, and then Derrick is all mines.
Wondering who Derrick might be? He caused my greatest pain. He looked down on me even when he knew we were meant to be, because he couldn't suffer the humiliation of mating with an omega. He turned his back on me when I felt I had found hope again. He sent me away and into the wild. When the war is over with the other packs, I will go back to my root, and make it mine.
Just like people would say, you don't get to choose how you are born, but you get to choose how you wish to live, how you wish to be seen and your purpose. It wasn't my fault that I happened to be an omega wolf in our pack, so why would the pack blame me for being an Omega. When he sent me out to the rogue, I couldn't just accept it and be called weak.
I got to realize that living as a rogue gave me more freedom than when I had lived as an omega. I could do anything and not watch my back. I wanted to pay them back, the humiliation I experienced. I want vengeance and the only way I can get that is to conquer the packs that won't bow to me. I became that ruthless.
Why don't we talk about this from the very beginning where it all started? As an omega I had limited rights to almost everything. I have to apologize for what I didn't do, surrender in a fight I didn't participate, eat the smallest piece after hunts, run errands for the pack and as well face the mockery of the werewolves with a smile on my face. How could I possibly live like this?
One day, a day before the full moon, everyone was getting ready to experience their shape shifting. Getting their chains ready and as well disposing every silver objects that would be of harm to them when they change form, I got an intriguing idea. At some point, I got tired of being there. They were supposed to be my family but it was the other way round. I wanted to leave. I had a plan to runaway and escape through the boundary of the pack.
They say when we turn into wolves on full moon, we tend to take several actions and forget them thereafter. These actions we take are built in our subconscious as a human. It was a perfect time for me to escape without having to seek permission from the alpha. I just needed to leave the pack boundaries and be forgotten.
I got my chain and snuck out of the woods, heading to an old abandon house built with woods. The house had been known to be empty ever since I was little, it was kept as a play house for us then, but as we grew, we stopped going. The house was some feet close to the boundary, the plan was to chain myself in the house in a loose chain and run off the boundary when I am fully transformed. The chain isn't going to hold on for long since it's going to be loosed and my subconscious wouldn't disappoint me either. To me, it was just the perfect plan to get me out of my pack for good.
"Jasmine. Where are you going?" came the beta's daughter , Becky Mendes.
Becky Mendes was the beta's daughter. She was my one of the ruthless wolf that had always bullied me and beats me to pulp.
I immediately hid the chains behind me. I was on my way to the abandon house to prepare for the full moon, time was running fast and I wouldn't want anything to sabotage my plans. It was my only shot to getting out of there.
"I am...just doing what everyone else is doing" I stuttered. Telling even my shadow about my plans wasn't part of it.
"You do that a lot when you lie" Becky came closer, while her eyes lingered around my body as though she was suspecting me of something, and she was right.
"I do what? Don't be ridiculous." I scoffed trying hard to keep the acting real.
"You know you can tell me anything Jas." She said calmly glaring at me.
She was the closest friend I had, but something wasn't at all right. She knew when I was lying, I was still adamant and refused to give in to her kind acting, I didn't want to let her know because she was one of the high ranking werewolves in the pack.
"Tell me. I promise not to let anyone know" she insisted staring deep into my eyes.
That was always my weakness. I trust easily. Her words got on me, and I decided to fill her in.
"Alright" I responded and went close to her ears and whispered my plans to her.
"That's risky Jas" Becky shifted away.
"I am willingly to take it. I can't continue to live like this."
"Jasmine" Becky called out pitifully. I could see how scared she was.
"I just need you to pretend you didn't see me. Please." I walked away. I could bet with my life that she wouldn't say a word. Becky was always known to keeping to her words. "Send me a letter sometimes" She smiled and turned away. As one of the major werewolves, she could control her form through the help of a ring forged to keep the high ranking werewolves in their human form during full moon.
I was excited she didn't talk me out of it or threatened to report or bully me. I continued and went on my way.
I had reached the abandon house quickly and started attaching my chains to the wooden parts of the walls that wouldn't hesitate to detach if I even try to drag. Everything was perfect and as planned. It was already getting to midnight, and I pulled my clothes and pushed it into my bag pack and tied it to the chains.
I looked at my work and gave a wide grin. I felt brave and fulfilled. I was desperate, I wished the time could go faster than it ever was. Soon, the weather became cold, and the trees were making wavy noises because of the heavy breeze, it was almost midnight.
"Finally" I sighed and went closer to the chains and picked it up.
I locked the chains around my feet first and then my arm. It was getting to midnight, the whole pack was quiet. I could hear the birds squawking from the woods. I was certain no one was around or any close to the boundary.
It was midnight already and the full moon was up. I could hear the cry of the wolves. I was already feeling my bones breaking until I fell. Just when my bones cracked and my claws were finding its way through my fingers, I could feel the pain piercing through my fingers, I could only let the pain roll down my face while I kept my mouth glued to each other. Then suddenly, a thwack, and the door was burst open, I slowly lifted my head up. My eyes were already turned yellow, and my visions were more enhanced that I could see more clearly in the night. It was Becky Mendes.
"Hold unto the chains and lock it tightly to the walls. She tied it loosed" She instructed.
"No!" I let out a loud cry.
"You can't cheat your purpose Jas." She uttered while glaring into my eyes.
The werewolves she came with held unto my chains and tightened it to the walls so I will not get to run off as planned. She betrayed me.
"I will not forgive you!"
She scoffed.
"When she comes back, bring her back to the pack" She walked away, leaving the wolves she brought, to watch over me.
My plans were ruined and there was no way I wasn't going to be punished. I should have listened to my instinct. At that moment, I felt numb, I could barely feel the pains of turning into a wolf any longer. My once closest friend pierced my heart with what was worst than a silver blade, betrayal.
"What was I thinking?!" I yelled, loosing all my strength to the transformation, and then slumed.
I had wished I never had to wake up the next day. But, what was this humiliation that the alpha and the pack will give to me, when they find out I tried to leave the boundary.
I woke up the next morning and my entire body was bruised and painful as though I had first a war in my sleep. I woke up in a dark room it was the parks prison it was a dark room designed to keep the prisoners, the ones who broke the laws of the pack.
At that moment I realized it wasn't a dream at all Becky sabotaged my plans and reported me to the alpha I was going to be punished for this what was I thinking when I told her the truth I didn't know the punishment I would be given but it wouldn't be nice at all.
It was a huge crime to try to leave the boundary without seeking the appropriate permission from the alpha. It was my first time going again our law, so I was certain they would take it easy with me not until I overheard the prison guards mentioning that since I was the lowest ranked werewolf in the pack, I might be given out as a slave as my punishment.
As a werewolf, being a slave was a terrible punishment and an humiliation to your identity. It was worst than the mockery I faced as an Omega. To me, being a slave would make even the youngest wolf in the woods spit on you and call you weak.
"The only way I can be promoted to get close to the alpha is if I caught more criminals and hunt more food than any other wolf in the pack" Becky said standing some feet away from the gate that locks me into the dark room.
"Take a few steps closer Becky" I groaned, grinning my teeth angrily.
"I am almost there. You are my scapegoat. You shouldn't be surprised" Becky strolled to and fro.
"You betrayed me all because of a stupid title?!" I was hurt.
"Betrayed? You can't run away from who you are meant to be Jasmine. Besides, I enjoy seeing you suffer. That's why I bully you."
"I will escape from this place again, and this time it will be successful. Then when I return, I will tear you apart with my claws, bits by bits. I will make sure I break every bones in your body and serve them to the wild cats of the dark forest. I promise you that." I threatened. I meant every single word that came out of my mouth, because there's no way else to inflict pain on your enemy, than to show them you can be as brutal.
"Let's see you try Jas." She laughed while she walked away from me.
"She thought I was her friend." I could hear her laugh heartily, mocking me.
I couldn't bare to be punished as a slave. I needed to try again. I needed to run off again and this time around, it had to work.
My fate was to be decided in three days. My head was blank and I couldn't think of anyone to help me at that time, it was just Becky Mendes and I lost her to greed already.
Life wasn't meant to be at all favourable to me. It was bad I happened to be an Omega in the pack, now, I'll be a slave to the alpha.
"No!" The thought of it made me want to puke.
I was becoming weaker as time went on, I wasn't allowed to go and hunt nor was I given any food from a hunt. I was losing my strength. I needed that strength, to be able to escape again.
"Can't I at-least get water?" I yelled, deafening the prison room.
"You are not to eat nor drink until after you face the alpha for your punishment" the reply came quickly from one of the guards.
"But I heard it from you guys already" I joked.
"You had to fine something funny even at the verge of death. Silly girl." He responded, while they bursted into laughter.
I smirked.
Just then, it felt like an idea bulb had showed over my head. I had a plan, this time around it wasn't going to be an easy one.
Once in a while the guards would take the prisoners out to woods, since we were not provided with restrooms in the dark room.
"I just had to delay myself from going out with the rest of the prisoners. I am sure I can take out one guard" I thought out loud.
Tomorrow was going to be the day I face the alpha for my punishment, and I can't have that. I just had to escape, then lay low until it was clear, so I could hurriedly approach the boundary.
Just as I planned, a whistle was blown so we could get ready to be escorted out of our prison rooms. I didn't step out because I got my hair tangled at the edge of my bunk bed.
"Get the heck outside here silly girl" The prison guard yelled on top of his voice.
"Thank God it's you I am killing today" I thought.
"Are you snubbing?" He walked in furiously.
"My hair got stuck" I replied trying to get my claws out of my fingers.
"When I get there, I'll reap it off for ya."
I noticed the prisoners and the rest of the guards had already left, that was my chance.
He was quite hefty, but I was determined.
The hefty guard grabbed me from my right foot, while dragging me off the bunk, I hurriedly hit him with my left foot, while he fell to the ground. He hurriedly stood up and gave me a huge grin.
"Digging your own grave already silly girl?" He grinned.
"Let's see who falls in" I returned the grin. I bet it got him furious.
He immediately jumped towards me, while I dodged and pushed my claws into his heart.
"Oops..." I smiled while enjoying the hideous look on his face. His eyes had already gone half closed, while his blood continued pouring out of his mouth. I didn't even hesitate to pull his heart from his body while he dropped dead.
The prison guards will soon bring the prisoners back, I had to run off before the returned. I immediately shut the dark room, with his body inside and ran out of the prison heading deep into the woods where I hid in one of the huge log of tree where no one would suspect a thing.
"Just till the sun goes down, I'll be out of here." I assured myself.
Meanwhile, I knew in just few minutes the pack might come out to hunt me. I had to survive.
After some minutes, it wasn't news to me that I was being hunted. I had to keep moving because my scent from the prison would only help them find me. I didn't think of that.
I went out of the log running towards the boundary. Making it to the boundary might take me about two hours if I don't stop.
The hunters were getting closer, I could sense them already.
"I can't be caught no matter what. I would just be the end of me." I kept running. I was getting weaker and weaker, almost staggering. I haven't eaten for days.
The wolves got closer and closer, that they were already behind me.
"Just give up. Jas" I could hear Becky's voice from behind.
I ignored her and continued running, if I could even get to the boundary, I'll be free. If I stop, I would be killed.
While running I could already see the boundary, but couldn't make it. I felt a dagger pierce through my knee and I immediately fell to the ground, the pain couldn't let me get on my feet again, I crawled.
They hunters caught unto me and dragged me back to the prison. This time around, I was chained hands and foot.
"For trying to escape to the boundary again, and for murdering one if the prison guards. You will be executed tomorrow" Becky said as she walked out of the room.
"He deserved it" I replied.
"You should have just given up Jas" Becky responded.
She left. It was probably going to be the last time I see her before my execution.
Few days on, after trying several times, at-least thirteen times to escape, and it wasn't all successful. I finally accepted my fate.
It was already the day of my execution. I was told my head will be cut by evening, and my body will be thrown to the wild cats to feed on. It was evening already and I was tied to a tree in the woods, where the packs had gather around to witness my execution.
"She killed the prison guard? And tried to escape thirteen times? She?" Alpha Max was quite shocked, "Impressive!" He exclaimed.
"I warned her" Becky Mendes with her charms again.
"Let's get this over with. I have a visitor to attend to." He ordered raising his hand for the execution process to take place.
The silver blade was being sharpened in front of me. I lost my pride and fearlessness, I wanted to beg, I was scared. I could feel my tears running quickly down my chin. Something immediately gave me a pause. I sensed something really strong approaching. It was a person. But, who was it? I couldn't identify him not until he came closer.
The sight of this attractive man, with his broad shoulders, his long hair brushed over the shoulders while he slowly walked towards me. I couldn't help but concentrate on his blue eyes. I was lust, froze in my place, the urge to run to his arms as my nipples hardened, was what I could think of at that moment.
"Hold on!" He said, while the prison guard stopped sharpening his blade.
He immediately turned to Alpha Max,
"Give her to me, to be my mate".
"Derrick?" Alpha Max called out, looking all surprised and beaten to it.
A mate is created for every Alpha in a pack. They are born to be our partners until another rises.
I was getting to the age that I needed to find my mate. I couldn't get to find one in my pack so I decided to notify the rest of the pack that I would be visiting them just to find my mate.
It was quite risky leaving my pack in search of a mate. I was sure going from one pack to another was the only way I could find my mate.
I took some of my wolves with me on my journey. Getting to the first pack, I got to meet with the alpha who offered to help. He called out all his female wolves in the woods, but none of them were destined to be my mate.
This search went on and on for several weeks, from one pack to another. I got worn out, tired and frustrated, but giving up wasn't part of the plan.
"We are heading to the last pack now alpha" one of my wolves broke the long silence.
"Maybe she isn't alive. I shouldn't have started a search like this in the first place. Let's head back."
Just when I paused on the path to the last pack, I was almost giving up when I sensed someone. I couldn't get it clearly so I headed slowly towards the fire I saw from the woods. There were voices chattering and the sound of the firewoods cracking making it hard for me to get the scent that was dragging me towards the woods.
"Did you get a scent?" One of the wolves asked while following behind.
"Something like that" I answered.
I came to a pause immediately I saw a pack gathered round. The scent became stronger and I could feel a bond to someone I didn't know nor see.
Since the bond was getting stronger, I could clearly approach where it was coming from. Finally, it felt like my search was a total success.
I blindly headed towards the scent until I reached the front of the crowd. They were about carrying out an execution. It was alpha Max's pack, my oldest friend.
All I knew at that moment was that I wanted that girl.
She was my girl.
She has to be the mate I have been searching for.
I took few steps closer to her, "Hold on!" I raised my hands and immediately they crowd kept silent.
She was everything I wanted.
Her yellow eyes lingered in lust, I believe she felt the bond as well. Her dark lips was already bruised due to the torture she had experienced, and her long blunt hair that fell down to her back drew me closer and closer until I hualted in front of her and slowly brush off the blood on her lips. I didn't want to know what she did wrong, or who she was. I just wanted her to be in my arms and heading back to my pack together, as my mate.
"Give her to me, to be my mate" I uttered immediately.
"She is a criminal!" A girl who stood beside Alpha Max raised her voice aggressively.
"Then sell her to me Max." I insisted as I couldn't get my eyes off her. And I realized it was all a mutual feeling when she kept her eyes on me and didn't even blink.
Max looked at me in a pitiful manner and realized what I meant, "release the girl to him" he ordered.
"What are you doing Max?" The girl asked glaring angrily at me.
"Becky. Isn't it a waste to kill her? She could be of help to my oldest friend here. This is the visitor I was waiting for." Alpha Max parted Derrick on the shoulder excitedly. It's been years.
She was untied immediately and handed to me. I stood staring into her yellow eyes. I had never seen someone this beautiful. I runned my fingers seductively through her long hair, while she kept staring at me.
I felt she wanted the same thing I wanted. She felt the same bond too. I found my pair. I just couldn't wait to have her by my side.
"My name is Derrick" I stretched my hands.
"Jasmine Brooke" She shakes his hands.
I took her already cold hands into mine and wasn't ready to let go. I wanted to be more than her mate. She smiled at me while gazing into my eyes, she saw me as her hero, I could tell.
I immediately took off my leather jacket and covered up her bruised shoulder. I could see the tears built up in her eyes, I rubbed her hands softly. I was going to be her hope.
"You don't want to know why I was going to be beheaded?" She asked looking way from me.
I smiled.
"I just want to know if you would leave your past behind and go with me. I don't want to know what you did." I answered.
I believe she was too hurt to remind her of what she did. She didn't hurt me, so it wouldn't matter to me what she did wrong or who she was.
She was my peace.
Derrick has saved Jasmine from death. He was his hero indeed. Derrick truly loves Jasmine. She was his love.
"I would love you to be my mate" Derrick sings this to my ear.
"I would love to" I wryly respond, having no choice. He has come perfectly in time to save my dear life and been his mate would make me strong. Would no longer be regarded as the weak wolf. Derrick his an alpha and am going to be his mate. It gives me the upper hand to revenge.
"What, it can come to pass" Alpha max couldn't believe it. "Go away" Alpha max said to one of his own pack who brought the news to his ear. Alpha max has been beaten down this time.
"Not in my eyes, will i see Jasmine go scot free". Alpha max furiously said. He had to do something.
"Get out of here, leave the pack and never again return back" Alpha max ordered. He banished us from the pack not minding Derrick as his best friend. He has betrays their friendship just to regain the prowess of his name.
Max was also an alpha. "We had to leave" Derrick told me.
"We had to" Assuring him that we had no choice. We headed back to his own family of wolf.
On our journey back, getting tired we ask for help along the way."Please give us water" Derrick begged pitifully. "No, we wouldn't, she is a criminal" They made me knew what i did wrong. I gazed down, when i hear there displeasure. They will not listened to my inner innocence before they judged me. They forced me to kill, and i did.
"I don't care about your past, i care about your future because you are my mate" Derrick put hope into my wolfery body. "If we get home, you will find a place" He assured me.
"No we can't accept her into the pack" said alpha of the pack. "She is a criminal, she would betrays us too" He furiously respond.
Derrick couldn't believe his ears. He had been betrayed by his own pack for the sake of love. Derrick has done a hard work to get her mate. Should he reject me? He was confused. I was his mate.
"I did a very sterious work, just to have her as my mate" Derrick told Jared. "Now no one approves her stay with me, i don't really care about her past, past is past, she is my mate" He proceed to tell Jared.
"You have to desert from her, if you still want to regain your alpha" He adviced Derrick.
"I don't want to desert her, she is my mate, if i do? I don't know when i will meet another mate, i may not" Derrick lashes back at Jared.
"Come here, you had to, i was the one who killed Lucy my former love, so as to just regain my name as an alpha" Jared spring out his long hidden secret just to convince Derrick to desert Jasmine.
Derrick was surprised. "You are heartless, so you did such and never admit" Derrick said his voice shaky.
"I had to" Jared defended himself. "The ball is in your court". He roared at me on my way back home. The ball was in his court and he had to awake to it.
"I know what to do" I told his subconscious and he did.
"Get out from the pack, you have no home here" He said, betraying his love in the eyes of all. He was harsh. "I don't know you, and i don't want to" severing my heart mercilessly. He had done this in the open, where even the blind wolf can see. He denies her love.
I looked into his eyes, his eyes were coming opposite to his words. He had betrays his mate, her love. I almost collapsed thinking the world would just stop, so as to stop with it. I had been betrayed again this time not Becky but by my mate Derrick. I was stabbed in the heart and it weaked my body.
"Where should i go" i cried back.
"I don't want to know, just leave" Derrick hesitated.
And surely i leave, with my weak body i leave.
Walking aimlessly through the wild forest, i had no where to go, to where to run back as home.
"Help me, help me" i shouted, i really want to put life into a stop, but not this type of death, i wanted to die at once and not gradually, i couldn't bear it. The trap in the pit, couldn't make me withstand the pain, i couldn't have it in my weak wolfery body. "Help me, help me" i shouted the more and loud, but i really want to die but it be instant.
James came in time to rescue me. "You should be more careful, you at the verge of death" He said coming to my aid kindly.
"Thank you for sparing my life" I openly said to return the kindness, thinking he shouldn't have helped me.
"How do you get here in the first place,it's dangerous been here" He said busy caring after the injured parts.
"I don't know, anyway i just want to be died at once" I barely said.
"I can see you need help". He lifted me and carried me to his cot to cure my broken body. I couldn't resist his help, i needed it.
From there on, James has really been treating me as if i was his child. He lacked a mate regardless of a child. I eat the larger part of hunt without taking part in a hunt. I was James's child, a full grown wolf.
