Chapter eight

With tears still in my eyes, I started thanking them for all the things they did for me. Even if it’s the last time they might see each other, she wanted them to know that she is really grateful for everything they did for her.

“From the deepest part of my heart, I really want to thank both of you for everything you have done for me since I came to this pack. I will never forget the both of you. May the moon goddess continue to bless both of you!”. I managed to say while still crying.

“Okay! You have to stop all this! You are sounding like someone who has been sentenced to death by hanging.” Lisa said as she tried her best not to cry.

I might actually be sentenced to death by hanging. I thought silently in my mind.

“I trust our alphas to have good judgment. All you have to do is explain to them what really happened, okay?”. Rose said, and I nodded my head, trying to control my tears.

“Group hug!”. Lisa shouted, and we all hugged ourselves and stayed that way until John came and it was time to go.

The guards who were assigned to me on that first day were the ones driving us to the Alpha’s palace. Rose begged them for the long route so that I could see the greater part of the city since the alpha’s palace was located at the end of the city.

I really enjoyed looking at the streets as we passed by. Everything is so beautiful, and they have amazing buildings.

After an hour and forty-five minutes, we arrived at a tall royal gate with the inscription “Alpha’s Palace.”. Written on the top. The guards on duty checked us before allowing us to drive into the compound.

It is at this very moment that I understand why they called it a palace and not a house or a mansion. The building was very mighty in size, and it was made of gold. Wow, how rich is this pack? I thought. This place is bigger than an entire pack.

"Beautiful, isn’t it? Although this is my third time coming here, I can’t get enough of its beauty.”

Beautiful is an understatement, honestly. It is beyond beautiful. I can’t believe all this belongs to only two people. Soon we reached the entrance to the main house, and they packed the car. We were ushered into the palace to the visitor lounge.

If I thought the compound was magnificent, then I can’t even describe the interior of the palace. Everything here looks very expensive and luxurious, even the flowers. The paintings on the wall were out in the world. Money’s good, I thought to myself.

“Welcome, please feel free; the Alphas are in a meeting and will attend to you later on.”. The woman announced this as she served us refreshments. I think she works here because she is wearing some sort of uniform.

To be honest, I couldn’t even touch any of the refreshments. I am already very nervous. If I eat now, I might throw up, and that will be very bad for me. I just sit straight, hardly breathing, because very soon I will know my fate, and it might not be in my favour.

“Babe! Calm down; you are hardly breathing!”. Rose said as she gave me a comforting tap on my back.

After sitting for about thirty minutes, the Beta came and announced to us that the Alphas were free and would see me now. My heart started beating wildly. That's it. I am about to get my death sentence.

“We can’t go with you, but we wish you good luck. Make sure you explain to them that you are a victim.”. Lisa said that and gave me a comforting smile.

I stood up and walked with the beta in silence. The only sound that is being heard is my heart pounding loudly as if it’s going to fall.

We soon arrived at the passage that leads to the alpha’s office. He told me to wait and went into the office for a few minutes before he came out. I told him to enter.

Well, this is it.

Good luck to us, Aliyah.

I entered the alpha’s office, and the first thing that caught my attention was a sweet scent that smelled muscular and like the fresh air of the forest.

“Mate!” Aliyah shouted in my head, rejoicing that we had found our mate. I looked up and saw the two Alphas standing and looking at me with dark eyes.

O my! I can’t believe it. Both of the Alphas are my mates. Now I don’t know if I should be glad or scared.

One of them snapped out of our staring contest.

“What! Is this a joke? How can we be mated to a rogue? Among all things, a rogue?”. He said this while looking at me with distress.

As soon as he said that, my heart broke into pieces. I can feel Aliyah crying over what he said.

I'm not waiting for any of them to talk again because I can’t handle it if they reject me right now. I turned and ran.

I ran out of the office. I ran past the beta, who was standing outside. I ran down the stairs and passed Lisa and Rose, who were shouting at me to stop. I ran with all my strength, trying my best to leave the palace before I broke down there. Before I could reach the gates, one of the guards caught me.

I broke down there and started weeping. I could feel Aliyah crying too. Honestly, I am very tired. I am tired of living. I just want to die! I just want to die and make them so I can be at peace.

I was maltreated by my parents, bullied in school, shifted four years after I was supposed to, shifted into a stupid omega, banished by my pack, became a rogue, was attacked, and now that I finally found a mate, they distress me and are probably going to reject me. Honestly, I am tired and sick of everything. I can’t remember who I ever offended to deserve all these hardships.

“Sophia! Sophia!”.

I looked up and saw the Alpha, Lisa, and Rose running towards me.

I tried to get up, but as soon as I stood, my legs felt weak, and then I fainted.

And the last thing I heard was “am sorry” being whispered into my ears.
