Chapter 2

• Lola's POV
• I remembered stripping myself of all my clothings the night before and rushed to cover my body earning myself another slap on the cheek. I fell down, hitting my head on my stone bed. I felt sticky liquid trickling down my forehead and lowly hissed in pain.
• "You think because you're Gray's mate, you'd be treated differently? You're just a stupid nobody that will never be recognised. Freya is our Luna, you're just a wretched bitch that will die lonely", he said to me mockingly and kicked me repeatedly.
• I'm sure my body has fresh bruises, the ones that were there are still taking time to heal. I have to get Jas and I out of here, I'd die at this rate if I refuse to do something.
• "You have a lot to do today, we're crowning our new Alpha and Luna today and everything has to be fully prepared for that", he barked at me. I nodded my head meekly while looking at the floor.
• He held my chin roughly and made me look him in the eye, "You should be grateful I came to get you and not Grayson. You were trying to seduce whoever came to get you? Nobody will want you,your body is not even attractive. You'd be good to relieve stress though, pathetic little bitch", he spoke as he groped me.
• I felt disgusted and wanted to crawl out of my skin as he touched me. Tears poured down my face but I dare not talk back or refuse or I'd be in more trouble.
• "Be out in 5 minutes bitch, or there will be consequences", he barked at me and left me after slapping me one more time.
• The torture and pain never stop. We all used to be friends then they suddenly turned on me. I wish it will stop, I haven't done anything wrong.
• All these sufferings started 8 years ago when my parents, the then Alpha and Luna of the Moonlit pack died in a rogue incident and the blame was placed on me. I was just 10, I did not know what really happened, one moment I was chatting happily with Mom and Dad and they were gone before I could blink my eye.
• The pack blamed me and stripped me of my Alpha powers, they could not allow a traitor to rule them. Till now, I still don't know what I did wrong, I don't know what went wrong, I just had to bear the brunt of it all because the current Alpha who was my father's Beta said so.
• I was demoted to an omega, the lowest rank for any wolf, the biggest insult on any wolf of high ranking. I became the slave of the pack at a young age, all the people who were nice to me became my enemy and treated me like trash.
• "Jasmine, I'm so sorry for putting us through all of this, if only I wasn't so weak, if only I can stand up for us. I know you've always wanted your mate, I'm so sorry Jas", I cried through our mindlink.
• "None of this is your fault Lola, I'm sorry for not being able to protect you more. If only I could shift and take all your pain away", Jasmine whimpered in my head sadly.
• Nobody has ever seen Jasmine, I've only ever met her once myself and that was before Mom and Dad passed away. She's a pure white wolf with golden eyes. She's a very pretty wolf but Mom and Dad said I have to keep her hidden, they never told me why.
• I knew I was special, Mom always called me 'her special little wolf'. Others got their wolf at age 16, Alphas got theirs at age 14 but I've had Jas since I was 8 and besides, I've never seen anyone with a pure white wolf and golden eyes.
• Everyone thought I didn't have a wolf and looked down on me because of it. We've not been able to shift even if we wanted to because we don't have the energy for that.
• I knew I had to get up before the punishment gets worse, I always get up early, I must have been so drained from what happened yesterday. I got up, went to the basin at the corner of my room and washed my face and wore my dirty gown like that.
• I limped to the kitchen, doing my best to avoid pack members to avoid any additional punishment or insult that morning. As my luck would have it, I met the current Luna, Grayson's mom and Freya in the kitchen discussing clothes and fashion.
• Immediately I entered the pack kitchen, Luna Natalie sprung on me and barked out orders. Freya looked like she was enjoying my pain as Luna listed out what I'm supposed to do before her son's coronation tonight.
• I felt Grayson before I saw him and went still as I felt him move closer to me. I dare not look up at him if I do not want more problems for myself.
• He lifted my chin and looked into my eyes, he smirked evilly at me and I felt my ears ringing before I could even process what was going on. He slapped me. I did not even do anything wrong and he slapped me, I heard people around me laughing mockingly.
• "You dare to be in the same room as me and look me in the eye,slut? What have I told you about disrespect and the consequences that comes with it", he growled at me angrily and gripped my chin to the point that it started hurting.
• Tears streamed down my face and Jasmine whimpered lowly in my head, her mate was hurting her and she could not even communicate with his wolf side because she had to stay hidden for our safety. She receded to the back of my mind, leaving me to face this monster alone. I guess I'm on my own now.
• "I need to teach you a lesson that will permanently put you in your place, a lesson I should have taught you sooner. You'd be ready for me tonight, I'd take you however I want and you'll take it like the whore that you are. Make sure you clean up nicely after my coronation tonight, I'll deal with you and others can have their turn", he said and loud cheers went off in the room.
• I could not believe my ears. He was going to rape me, he was going to rape me, they're horrible people but no one ever dared to take my innocence . I've lost everything, I can't lose the only dignity I have left.
• I felt disgusted and wanted to puke out my insides, how can anyone be so vile and cruel? He said he wanted to rape me and everyone cheered him on? Freya was in the room when he said it and she had no problems with that?. Just great.
• They shortly left and I fell to the ground, I was still in shock of what I saw and heard. He was going to break me completely and then give me to his friends to humiliate, I won't wait for such to happen.
• I'll protect you, Jas. I'll protect us, I'll not let anybody taint you, I'd rather die running, were my thoughts as I finally found the strength to leave my position in the floor and made my way to the basement.
• Tonight. I have to leave tonight!
