" Where is that damn bitch! " I suddenly opened my eyes and get out of my bed when I heard someone near the hut. I know he is looking for me since everyone in this pack would call me names, such as bitch, monster, the devil, and many more.
I got out and slowly approached him when he saw me he rushed to me and slapped me so hard that I fell on the ground and I could feel my jaw tears a little. He might have forgotten that I am still a girl. Oh, he would never consider such things since like everyone else they hate my very being.
" You filthy whore! what do you think you're doing? You make the alpha angry by making the future Luna of this pack cook again! " Anyone around us started to gather, they looked at me with disgust. That human bitch, claims that she prepared those that I have prepared again. He met her after the day I was captured he believes that something he felt towards her is a mate bond. Without knowing, that human just wears a necklace with a seduction spell, she bought it outside the pack territory I think. That girl just moved into this town without knowing this town is full of wolves.
" But I'm— " But again I was cut off by a hit from him. I was trying to say that I'm the one who's always preparing the meal. And that good-for-nothing human took all the credit, saying she's the one who cooks it all. The only thing she did was wake up early and go to the kitchen and act as if she was cooking.
" Do you have the audacity to talk back now? " He said and pushed me harshly. I'm already so weak that I fall when he shoves me to the ground. I feel a warm liquid gushing out of my side and pain follows when I see the hand sickle accidentally stab my side when I fall.
" H-help..." I helplessly gasped for help. Even with the slightest pity, the guy who pushed me looked at me with more contempt and disgust. Instead of helping me the woman from the crowd started a fire saying " She's dying anyway at least we should give her a proper burial. " Fear, I felt this emotion for the first time in my life I never felt this way before because even when we're in the water I have my brother my friends, and attack. And now I have no one, my little moonlight was taken away from me. And my brother can't help me this time that I'm not dead yet but they wanted to bury me already.
Fire is one of the greatest weaknesses of the witches. I'm not afraid of it since I am a High Priestess but now that I'm weak, and fire consumes me I will instantly turn to ashes and die without a chance of reincarnation. We witches strongly believe in reincarnation, why would we not? Magic does exist.
" Please don't, " I pleaded even though they would never give me some mercy, even if they heard me begging multiple times. They are the true monsters. The fire starts to get bigger and I could see them laughing at the site of the witch ready to get burned I just closed my eyes and accepted this horrible faith.

" Finally! " I shouted happily when I found the last elder of the Everest Pack who would testify for my sister and an elder of a fallen pack who my sister helped when she is still the Alpha of the Everest Pack. The Moon Goddess's Absolute Order won't take me in the members of the Everest Pack as a legitimate witness that will prove my sister's innocence since they believe that we are just biased. An elderly of the Ophiuchus Coven finds me to seek how to release their High Priestess which is my sister.
I would make them regret if they did something stupid to my sister. We attended the hearing I requested for my sister's trial and to prove that her Coven is innocent and has nothing to do with the war. My Luna is also very supportive of this fight and has always been by my side, they were pretty close before so it makes sense. While we were in the middle of the hearing I felt something unpleasant. It's like something wrapped around my chest makes it hard to breathe and the air passed by makes me wonder because it is a closed room. I tense up, it feels like someone is hugging me when the air brushes on my skin. I burst out of the room, why would I feel something like this?
The only thing that was on my mind was my sister, I didn't wait for the result of the trial and I ignored my mate's call, the only thing that was on my mind was to go to her and see if she was okay. She did everything for me since I was young she became my supporter, my wall, and a parent who filled up both roles of a mother and a father at the same time. I don't want to lose her again.
My conversation with the elder witch of her coven flashed in my mind. " She is really great that's why I want to testify. " the elder said with a weak smile. " She is, " I agreed and looked down at the floor, an Alpha shouldn't be very emotional and should be strong like my sister. But when it comes to her it makes me shiver even when the slightest idea of losing her comes to mind.
" Your sister gave up so much to save the coven I want to repay that, a life for a life," she said and that's when I knew I would be having a niece I am so happy to hear the story the elder told me about her but my excitement as an uncle perished. The dream of pampering my niece broke into a thousand pieces.
" But then that night happened, she performed a great spell to save everyone. " She said and I continued to listen. " That spell requires a lot of sacrifices that may cause the caster's life but then your sister is no longer alone when she cast that spell, we beg her not to but your sister's love for her people is tremendous, and that's when the High Priestess's unborn child has been sacrificed instead. " She said while trying to fight the sadness. But it is more painful for me to hear such a story, my sister is great and she doesn't deserve such things.
" Who are you? Don't cross the back borders of the Midnightdire Pack, we are warning you! " a patrol of the Midnightdire Pack snapped at me of course he's being reluctant because based on the pheromones they could tell that I am not a rogue but an Alpha. "Let me through I have business with your Alpha!" A growl making them in full defensive mode ready to shift if anything will be out of control. One of the pack patrols stopped being defensive. " The Alpha ordered to let him pass," he said and without waiting I passed by.
I got to the back house and was welcomed by an amazing smell, my sister's cooking. " I guess you're captive with my mates cooking too, he said and I looked at him, I'm missing my sister so much when I smelled her cooking that I didn't notice Silas the Alpha of the Midnightdire Pack come near me.
" Mate? " I asked, is he mated with my sister? I was about to jump in excitement, questions clouded my head, and was thinking hard about how to tease her when a human came out of the kitchen wearing an apron with my sister's faint scent on it. I just know cause I live with my sister before! Even though she's not a wolf she has this smell that lets me know it's her.
" Come have breakfast with us. " I smirked when she asked me to have breakfast with us after she got closer to us and clung to Silas like a leech. " Well, taking credit of my sister's efforts makes you even prouder? " I think I hit a spot, she turned pale and can't even look at me. " Watch your words Alpha Deighton! " He growled at me. " But I'm just stating a fact Alpha Henris! " I growled back at him, " I could smell a faint scent of my sister on the apron that your so-called led mate is wearing right now. " I continued and after that he stopped arguing with me he might realize something.
