Chapter 4 Whispers Of Betrayal

  • Just as she was about to cross to the door to her room, she saw two people leave. She quickly gathered her clothes and hid behind the pillars, which were big enough to hide her tiny body. The two men talked as they walked by, but they couldn't see who was hiding in the pillars.
  • "Alpha Lucas won't be happy to hear that we didn't find the omega. When we went to look for her, she wasn't in the room."
  • One of the guys said that when he walked by the column, he couldn't smell another wolf in the hall.
  • "Lucas said that she might be dead, so we don't need to worry if we don't find her. But how dare she try to force herself on Lucas! The soon-to-be alpha, was she trying to have a pop for the alpha, to tie him down to her? Damn, I never knew she had these disgusting traits in her, and she always acts so meek and humble."
  • Bella was shocked by what she had heard about her and the alpha's son Lucas. The second male said this as he turned to the other side of the hall. How dare the soon-to-be alpha build his leadership on a bunch of lies! If these lies go out to the rest of the pack, her life would be even worse than it was before, and her sisters would make sure she didn't go scott free with the accusation laid on her by Lucas.
  • They were very close to the alpha's son, and one of them wants to be the Luna of the pack.
  • Bella left her hiding place and went to her room, where she locked the door and went to her bed. As she sat on her bed, tired and exhausted even though the day hadn't started yet, she heard rats making a squeaky sound. Turning her head, she saw a rat, and the rat's eyes looked back at her, and it didn't even try to run away. Bella shook her head and smiled as she looked at the rat. She wasn't sure if she was imagining it, but the rat seemed to be looking at her while bending its head down a little.
  • "Now we share a room, huh? And you're not afraid of me, you little rat? Well, you can share my room with me. You've been my only friend, and a very good one," Bella said, wiping away a tear. "You are the only one who has never judged me, never cared if I was an omega or a wolf-less, and I really appreciate you for being a real mouse."
  • Bella said this with a smile, but she was surprised when the mouse ran up to her and jumped over the holes in the ground. It then curled up next to her legs like a little cat. Had the mouse been smart. She got out of bed and walked toward the shower to take a bath. She already felt so bad about herself because of what had happened in the last few hours.
  • As she put her head in the water, the pressure in her head went down, and she was done bathing in five minutes. After putting on a new outfit, she stepped out of the shower and walked towards the mouse, which was still sitting at the foot of her bed. She bent down and gave it a small piece of bread, which she always kept in the room, and watched as the rat ate it. As she stood up, a sharp voice hit her, almost knocking her to the ground. She knew who was angry, and she knew her mother wasn't playing when she screamed with her lungs out. She opened the door and ran to the kitchen. Every step she took made her feel like she was running to her death. She knew what was waiting for her and hoped everything would go well.
  • The kitchen was full of servants who were busy doing their jobs.
  • Well the servants were better than her because they had wolves inside them and weren't the lowest beings in the pack.
  • "Bella, where have you been? You were meant to be in the kitchen, you poor child. Your mother was furious because you weren't in the kitchen when everyone else was. Don't stand there, move quickly, take these to the mill stand and grind them, breakfast has already been served, but your mother said you had to finish your morning chores before she would serve you breakfast,"
  • the old woman said.
  • Mrs. Dozza is the pack's chef, and she's the only one who treats her differently, better than her own mother.
  • "OK, Mrs. Dozza, I'll be right back in a minute,"
  • Bella told the cook as she took the sack from her hand. When she quickly turned around, she was shocked to see Lucas standing with the two men he had sent to maybe kill her.
  • She watched as he gave her a dangerous grin and his eye turned black for a second before going back to normal. She shivered and took a step back as he walked toward her.
  • Everyone in the room looked at the alpha's son and wondered why he was in the kitchen and walking toward the omega. The one at the bottom of the pack.
  • "You escaped, huh? I thought you were dead, and I already had your casket ready for a proper burial." His voice came, assaulting her senses. She closed her eyes and gripped the bag tightly. Lucas had come to hurt her and make her life unhappy, and no one could stop him because he was the alpha's son. The prideful son of the king. She got on her knees and watched as he stopped a few feet away. Lucas smiled. This disgusting little thing had turned down his offer, which was a slap in his face and an insult to his honor. He would make sure she regretted what she did.
  • Turning toward the people in the kitchen, he saw Bella's mother and two older sisters walk into the kitchen. He smiled more, thinking that this morning's scene would be interesting if he could just play the victim well.
  • He asked, "What do they call this girl, the wolf-less omega of the pack?" as if he didn't know her name and it was all his plan if he didn't.
  • "Bella Manchor"
  • A maid said with a smile, "Who doesn't like to see the Omega look so bad?"
  • "Yes, thanks, dear. The beta, Bella Manchor, had tried to force herself on me this morning."
  • When he said that, people in the room whispered,
  • "The alpha's son might be kidding, right?" "How dare the omega do something like that to the son of the alpha!"
