Mia.
How could I have killed him when I was standing with Leon? Yes, I was the one that had served him earlier but in no way did I tried to kill him.
The Alpha King has nothing on me, I can’t even recognize the poor man if I had seen him anywhere because I couldn’t stare into his face.
It was sort of an abomination to look into the eyes of the Alpha King as a low rank werewolf. Then what about me? A human with nothing to brag about? “You have to believe me.” I cried out as Leon ordered for me to be taken away.
He needs to see that I had been standing with him, throughout the time so I couldn’t have killed someone.
Leon paid no heed to me as he walked away, towards to the pack house. Getting in trouble with Rachel in the beginning was a bad idea that I had never thought of.
If nothing had happened between us that day, I wouldn’t have run into the higher rank boys bathroom and then, I wouldn’t have any idea of who Leon is to me.
I wouldn’t have been here for f**k sake. Without wasting any time, two guards grabbed me by the shoulders, dragging me away. I groaned out a sound, due to the pain that shots to my head when they had grabbed me by the neck.
I still feel weak for no reason. My head hurts from all that had just happened today and the scar on my neck from the mark that Leon had given me was slowly blending in with my skin.
No matter how hard I could try, I couldn’t just break out of the guards hold. They were so strong to hold me down until they threw into the dungeon. “She isn’t to be given food or water. Orders of Prince Leon.” I heard them say to something.
Swallowing hard, I pressed my back against the wall. If it wasn’t for my mother’s gut, I would have been living within my peers with nothing to be worried about.
“I didn’t anything.” I screamed, earning attention of the guard around but they quickly turned around and acted as if I wasn’t there to begin with.
No one in this pack hold regards to human, I could see it in their faces. Even Casey and Talia that are friends, a day would come that they would turn their backs on me and I am waiting for that day to come.
“Wait, they have no evidence that I had killed the Alpha King.” I mumbled against my lips, feeling some courage going through my body.
Unless they have it captured, there is no way that they could prove that I had murdered the Alpha King. I had only fed him and that was it. “You are a nobody in their society, they won’t believe you.” I reminded myself.
I am nothing but an outcast to them, a human that they wouldn’t hesitate to get rid of. Nothing that I could think of to save me, I don’t even have an alibi to prove that I did nothing.
Leon doesn’t look like someone that is ready to have this conversation. He hates me for no reason, and now, he has more reason to leave me behind bars.
With my back pressed against the wall, I put my face between my legs, comforting myself that it will be alright.
My throat patched with time, and I couldn’t ask for water because I have already heard what was said to the guards standing there. But there is no harm to try.
I crawled to the dungeon iron door, holding it with my two hands. “Hey.” I called out.
The guards turned then mumbled something among themselves before they turned back their attention to whatever they were doing. “Hey you.” I repeated, pointing at one of the guards.
He pointed at himself, to be sure that I was talking to him and not someone else. I nodded at him before saying. “I need some water please.” I requested politely.
“No, we are not allowed to feed you anything while you are in there.” The guard responded.
And here I was, thinking that he could be nice with the way he looks naive and cute in his own way. “Life isn’t fair.” I screamed throwing my hands in the air.
“Nothing has been faired to anyone. Besides, this is your punishment until it is proven that you didn’t kill the Alpha King.” The other guard, with a big soft face responded.
I do wonder how they want to prove that I was the one that had killed him, when I didn’t. I could swear on my mother’s life, the only person that I love more than anything that I did. They are mistaken. “And what if I didn’t kill him stter I have been starved.”
The guard that had just spoken shrugged his shoulders. “That isn’t a part of business and if you really know what is best for you, you will turn back and sit quietly in there.” He threatened.
Fear went through my entire body. Werewolves are unpredictable creatures, despite what their rank could be. The lower rank could be more wicked and dangerous than some of this higher ranks.
To avoid being humiliated or anything, I crawled into the dungeon. “At least, I have a soft mattress to sleep on.” I uttered, falling on the mattress with a thud.
What I had expected wasn’t what I had gotten. In the eyes, the mattress looked soft and easy going but when my back had fallen on it, the irons in it poked through my skin. There is no way that I could easily sleep on this, unless I have a dead wish to kill myself.
But at the end, I didn’t have much choice than to lay on it like that. It is better than what the floor is trying to offer to me.
If I’d endure the bullying from the students of the same age as me, then sleeping on a mattress with the pins poking through my skin shouldn’t be an issue.
