“How did you even get hurt?” Willow questioned Damon as she helped him to clean the blood. “What good will knowing that do you?” He asked, raising his brows. “I know right?, I don’t even know why I asked” she smacked her lips and got up the moment she was done. “Thank you” Damon says as Willow turns towards the door to leave. It got her in the same spot for a moment as she was quite shocked at what he just said. “Are you My Alpha??” Willow’s scream called to the attention of the guards who rushed in immediately. “I take back my thank you” Damon retorted whilst shaking his head at how dramatic she just acted. She went out of his room to do other things and she wouldn’t stop thinking about why he would even say that to her. That is a first. Even before he became the Alpha King, he had always treated everyone with low regard and places himself high. Because he was the only son of the previous Alpha. Damon had a hard time sleeping as he wouldn’t stop thinking about the moment he had with Arya. It was all in his head and it is obvious that they wouldn’t leave anytime soon. So he chose to have it play in his head till the following morning. ** Arya went back to her room after that talk with Phoebe and she immediately went back to sleep only for her to wake up after the morning meeting for the 7 participants in which she didn’t partake in. “Eloise?” Arya called, hoping to see her sitting in one corner of the room but she couldn’t even see her shadow. This got her to get up after so much contemplations, she parked her hair neatly and washed her face even though she already had her bath but there were marks from her sleep all aligned in her face. She proceeded to leave the whole quarters only to notice that female guards were on standby and they all had their eyes on her. “Greeting my lady” they all bowed for her even though she could sense some hypocrisy from the way they eyed her. “I’m looking for my maid, Eloise, and..” “You are not allowed to go further than this area so please return to your room until you are asked out!” Arya scoffed, holding her waist. “Why will I allow you b…” She hurriedly composed herself whilst fisting her hands into a punch. Phoebe words Kept reoccurring in her head but she cannot stand being like this without seeing the only person that makes her want to stay in the pack. “Lazy woman!” Two female from the selection who walked past her blurted rudely and almost spat at her. “Are you talking to me?” Arya half yelled whilst running after them. She was only trying to confront them for what they said when the First Lady angrily pushed her. “How dare you??” Arya screamed in frustration and tried to do the same for her only for the last to fall to the ground with blood splattered all over the floor. “What did you do to her??” The Second Lady fall on her knees and began to sob heavily whilst shaking the lady. “I didn’t even…” Arya was gobsmacked, rubbing her face to be sure that she’s not just dreaming about this. It felt like a dream until she was surrounded by the other ladies and the guards. “How can you be so desperate to the point of killing your fellow being!!” They all attacked her whilst sending the guards to report what just happened. “I didn’t do anything to her, I didn’t even touch her!” Arya half yelled. “Do you think this is a situation to act boldly!” Julia screamed at her and slapped her to sum it. Arya wasn’t ready to take the slap and tried to slap her only for the female guards to hold her back. Few moments later, Willow rushed to the scene with the female inspector in charge of attending to them to check what happened. After sometime, Willow couldn’t detect the lady’s pulse and came to her final judgement. “She’s dead!” Willow announced. Every other lady were frightened and started lashing out at Arya for harming her. “You are a physician, you ought to know what killed her!” Arya rasped impatiently. “She was the one who pushed me, I was just about to do the same when she fell down, my hands didn’t touch her, ask her, she they were together!” She continued but everyone treated her words like an insane person and she was later dragged to the dungeon under Owen’s order as Damon was said to be too busy to attend to matters like this. “You can’t put me here without knowing what happened!, I didn’t!” “If you know what is good for you, then you’ll just shut up!, investigation is going on and you’ll be the suspect until the truth comes out!” Owen made it clear to her and gave orders to the dungeon guards that no one should be allowed to see her. “False words!, isn’t this what you all wish for??” She bursted into laughter as she was finally getting the whole thing they planned. But who will be so brutal to sacrifice someone’s life just to put the Blames on her. Sometime later “Good job, you did really well!” An unfamiliar voice said to the lady who was together with the deceased earlier. “I did exactly what you wanted and she was the right target as she wouldn’t stop talking about how she’d become the Luna and make me her right hand maid through her fathers help, she’s so full of herself, she deserves to die!” “You still have more to take down, this is just the beginning!” The voice said to her again and they quickly dismissed when they heard footsteps drawing closer. I’m not done with you all, no one will be left by the time I’m ready to take over ! The day went by faster, probably because Arya was left in the dark side of the dungeon with hungry looking men who wouldn’t stop staring at her. She ended up turning her back and hiding in the corner so they would stop. A part of her was slowly fretting for she didn’t know what was going to happen to her. Her body tightened when she heard the dungeon gate creaking opened by two guards. “Did you really kill so you could become the Luna?, do you think killing would help You?”she stared at them with disgust. No words coming from her as she could tell that they didn’t come to talk about this. “We need you to obey us or you might never leave here alive!” The moment they said that, she knew what would come next and slowly moved far away from them. “Her mouth!” The other guard signaled to his friend and they hurriedly out a piece of cloth to cover Aryas mouth and face. She could hardly talk and will not even be heard. “I wish they can bring juicy female like this to the dungeon everyday, look at her breasts!” He giggled and slapped her breasts out of excitement. They were so thrilled and ready to devour her. With their dirty and trashy look that she detest, she didn’t even know what or how they’re going to touch her as her eyes were blindfolded. Arya groaned in discomfort when he slowly zipped her gown from the back and tried to unclamped her bra. “Dontrt!!” They could only hear her struggling . Just as they proceeded to sucking her boobs, a lamp was switched to their direction and they immediately lowered their head. “You worthless guards!, how dare you touch the Alpha King’s woman????” Phoebe screamed and throws the bowl in her hand at one of them whilst ordering the maids to cover Arya’s body with the wrapper. “How dare you intrude here to save a criminal?” Owen yelled from nowhere as he ran over the minute he was informed of the situation. “Greetings Beta Owen,” “I do not think you know you are going against Alpha King by locking her up here without his permission!” “Who do you think you are to tell me how to make my decisions, you’re the head maid and nothing more!” “Yes but I’ll not watch you treat an innocent child unfairly because you think you can, if the Alpha king won’t know about this then I’ll not allow you to torture her!” “You did not only Put her in the dungeon, you even went as far as ordering the male guards to rape her, if it was successful, Alpha King will never forgive You for this!” It dawned on Owen why Phoebe was reacting this much. “They’ll surely be punished for their crime but I did not order them to do so!!” “She killed her fellow women and needs to be questioned before she commits the same crime!” “It’s just speculations, black Magic is banned in our Pack, does it makes any sense to you that a weakling like her will push a woman like her and she’ll pass out immediately??” Phoebe was obviously and indirectly wasting Owen’s Time just so the maid she sent to inform Alpha King about the situation will get there before anyone stops her. “I need to pass a message from Madam Phoebe to Alpha King, it is urgent, please announce my arrival!” She said whilst breathing heavily. “The Alpha King has ordered that no one should disturb him!” “It’s urgent!, one of the maiden in the Luna selection was killed!” Damon’s ear raised upon hearing that and he immediately jerked out of his seat. Flashing by the maid who came ti inform him. Damon arrived at the Maidens Quarters, meeting the other ladies gossiping and talking that no one would even think that someone actually died. “Greeting…” They were unable to complete their greetings before he dashed over to Aryas room to find out that she wasn’t there. A part of him was loosing it. “Where is Arya???”
