Unexpected

~ Harmony's POV ~ How could that piece of s**t become my fiancé? Who in their right mind would choose someone like him? I did hear from my dear father that he had planned to hold an official engagement, but I never knew that I was engaged to someone like him. I usually don't feel a thing. Even when the professor died right in front of my eyes, I felt nothing. Sometimes, I feel like I am nothing more than an empty person. It's like I don't have a soul inside me. Only Trinity made me realize that someone like me could also enjoy my life. Bella took her leave after dropping me near the packhouse. When I walked inside, I found that the pack members were gathered in the main hall and father was standing in the middle with Helena and Ares. Now, what sort of new blame are they going to put on me? “Alpha Xavier called me today. How dare you insult your chosen mate in front of his pack members? I was aware that you were stupid like your mother, but I didn't know that you also failed to remember your status in front of Seth Morven.” Alpha Cain screamed at me and I silently listened to his accusations. Did that guy make a complaint about me in front of his father? What is he… a three-year-old child whining to his father that the world is treating him unfairly? “Oh, is that it? Next time I meet him, I will definitely treat him like a king. If you are done, then can I go and rest in my spacious bedroom? I am kind of tired right now, father.” I yawned while I covered my mouth. My words didn't go well with my father. He was glaring at me with eyes filled with anger, and his mistress was trying to hide her smile. No matter how much I try, I can't humble myself in front of these people. My father walked towards me. I could tell that he was doing his best to make me feel breathless by releasing his aura. There is no other way. I'll have to act if I want to find out the truth. I looked at the floor while my body started to tremble when my father stood in front of me. “It seems like locking you in your room is definitely not enough for you. Should I break your bones to the point where you won't be able to walk properly? Bring that. I will have to discipline her.” Cain turned to look at Ares and simply nodded. He rushed to bring something, and when he returned, I could see a silver spiked whip. So, is this his new way to torment me? Ares immediately gave him the whip, and before I could stop him, he started to whip me in front of all the pack members. I covered my face. My flesh was ripping and blood continued to ooze out of my fresh wounds, but even then that man didn't stop. He continued to whip me as hard as he could, but when he didn't hear me screaming in pain, he started to kick me. “This is all your fault, you b***h! How many times have I told you to never raise your head and voice in front of others? Why do you never take my words seriously? I am superior to you. That Xavier dared to talk to me in that tone because of your fault.” My father grabbed my hair and when he saw me covered in blood and wounds, I could tell that he was satisfied. Is he trying to imagine someone else in my place? He is definitely a sick-minded and twisted person. You were definitely not living a peaceful life at this place, so why did you lie to me, Trinity? I was trying to bear the pain but when Alpha Cain looked straight into my eyes, he gasped in shock. Did he find something? “What should we do, darling? The preparations are still not over. Ares was looking forward to the party, but because of Trinity’s laziness, he wouldn't be able to enjoy his own party. Well, he is just an illegitimate child, so I didn't expect a grand party for him.” Helena sounded sad. I could even see tears in her eyes. This woman is definitely great when it comes to acting. I was lying on the floor in such a condition, but I still wanted to applaud you for putting up such a great performance. “That party needs to be postponed. Alpha Xavier has invited us all to his packhouse. Tomorrow is the birthday of his Beta daughter, Bella. The children will go to some royal club to celebrate the girls' birthday. Make sure to cover her marks with the concealer, Martha. I need you to beg Seth for his forgiveness. Do you get it?” My father pulled back my hair while he looked straight into my eyes. He was crouching down on the floor and when he didn't hear my reply, he pushed my face on the cold ground. “One more complaint against you, and I will really bury you alive with that dead mother of yours. Wear some decent clothes tomorrow. Throw her inside her room. Looking at her good for nothing face just boils my blood in rage.” My father growled in his alpha's tone and the pack members immediately held me by my arms, and they started to drag me towards my room. The pack members didn't look happy. I could see that they were blaming me inside their heads. “Why don't you just die, huh? Because of you, we all have to face the wrath of Alpha Cain. Can't you think about us for once? Everything was messed up the day you were born in this pack. If only our Luna decided not to give birth to you, then we would not be facing such a day.” The guy clicked his tongue in annoyance and the girl agreed to whatever he was saying about me. Why would I do something so stupid? They are the ones who have a problem with me, so why should I give up on myself? It was not my decision to be born, but my mother's, and I am going to respect that. They both threw me inside the closet like room. They could at least put me in bed. I was still lying on the cold floor while I tightly closed my eyes. This is all happening because of those four. I am never going to forgive them. I suddenly heard a knock, and before I could tell anything to that person, he immediately barged inside my room. What exactly is the meaning of such an action? I tried to turn, but my whole body was in pain. The bleeding didn't stop as my dear father flogged me with a silver-spiked whip. The wounds might take a little longer to heal on their own. “Why are you behaving so strangely these days, Trinity? You never refused to help me out, but when I asked you to do my homework, you rejected me without thinking about the consequences that you would have to face. You were such a great slave, so why did you suddenly change? If you know what's best for you, then you should lower your head in front of the people who hold a higher position than you.” I heard a familiar voice and when that person stood in front of me, I sighed in frustration. Why exactly is my dear half-brother here? He is definitely not here to just warn me, right? “I really want to bend my knees after hearing such motivating words, but as you can see that I am in no position to even welcome you into my room, I believe that you should just f**k off and leave me alone, Ares. Oh, one more thing. Always check your windows before going to sleep. Who knows what might happen to the next alpha at night? Take this as my concern for you. I mean, I am your big sister.” I smiled at him, and that was enough to piss him off. If they think that this is enough to make me shiver in fear, then they are highly mistaken. I have faced worse than these people. They don't know what I am aware of about death and how it looks. “You better hold on to Seth. Who knows… he might end up choosing Leah as his mate. Didn't you like that guy, so what happened? Why are you no longer running behind him? Don't embarrass our pack at tomorrow's party, and try to act like you don't know me. I can't let everyone know that someone pathetic like you is my half-sister. I really don't want to have anything to do with you.” After saying those words to me, he left my room without even turning back. He could at least help me out. Well, I don't expect much from someone like him. Why do they all think that I will beg that bastard to look at me? He could flirt and make out with any she-wolf, so why do I have to play the role of a faithful mate? I don't care how Trinity behaved in my past, but I am definitely not lowering myself in front of someone like him. My phone suddenly started to vibrate, and when I looked at the screen of my phone my eyes widened. I tightly clenched my phone when I looked at my screen. Who the heck shared this post? In the post, I was standing close to the famous four, and the students were also discussing the murder of that perverted professor in the group chat. They were blaming me for seducing not only that professor, but also the quads. They were abusing me with different names, and some of them even claimed that I slept with the professor, and that's the reason I got the full scholarship. Their comments were becoming nastier. Suddenly, the whole group chat became completely silent, and I read the message that Damon sent, "The one who accused her of sleeping with the professor, or seducing me, and my brothers... that person will have to face me at the training ground. Open your mouth again only if you have the guts to challenge me." Now, this was definitely unexpected. Why is this guy trying to defend me?
