Verity's POV
Natalie failed to kill Liliana after running amok in her wolf form and received injuries to her body as well as excruciating pain in her stomach. Even though she was weak, the Moon Goddesses still saved her son; at least movement indicated the son's life in her belly. Now that we're in prison for trial because Natalie threw my and Liliana's mate's appointment party, my consciousness was taken over by Natalie, who had enormous killing intent towards Liliana and Jacob for their betrayal.
I stared at the damp floor beneath my feet, my hands tied up. My shoulders started to numb; my body went limp because I hadn't eaten. I saw from the high vent above that the sun had returned.
I don't know where this all went wrong. I try to remember, but my head is too dizzy, and my stomach hurts greatly from the cramps.
"Forgive me...son, I can't give you a decent life."
I closed my tired eyes to relieve this pain; I didn't know how long I had closed them until I was shocked when a shower of cold water poured over my head.
"She's already alpha awake." Said the voice of the guard holding the bucket to a tall man who walked closer to me; I looked up to see him. "Heh!" I chuckled in pain while shivering from the cold, aware that the air was biting my skin.
Seeing that the three guards with the traitor in front of me were carrying torches, indicating that it was night again, no wonder the air was so cold. Our eyes meet, and now I call him a traitor. I look into his eyes. There was a terrible stinging pain in my chest; those eyes were cold without reproach and affection like those I knew.
As if knowing the significant change, my son kicked so hard that it made me groan in pain without realizing it.
"Ouch!" I looked down and started talking to the baby in my stomach without caring that he was in front of me. "Calm down, son... it's okay; there's a mother here. You will be fine." I said, looking straight up to see his expression, which did not ripple.
What did I expect? It's all over. The love and attention all this time are just bullshit; I was deceived by the two people I trust the most in this world. And now it's just me and my baby; we trust each other.
"No need to worry, son... your father may not care anymore, but mommy still cares about you. So stay alive until we get out—" My words trailed off, and my face was thrown to the right when his hand slapped me; it was tough. My cheeks immediately felt hot; the hard slap made the corners of my lips taste fishy, and I was bleeding.
"Verity Morana, lowly mixed-blood female omega! You were sentenced to be expelled from the Moon pack to Minerva in downtown Middletown for attacking Luna Liliana Skyler from the Moon pack; this sentence will be lightened if you apologize in front of the entire herd, who are furious for what you have done!" said the man who I thought had become the axis of life and the home I returned to.
I didn't answer; I was still in the same position after being slapped. The hair covering the side of my face that was holding back tears, this awful feeling, really hurts. I don't want to look into my sapphire eyes, a jerk who dares to betray the sincerity of my love is also a bastard friend who even makes my life a joke.
I saw his legs move around his back to me, "So you won't apologize, then the punishment has been meted out!" he said in a firm tone without compassion; it brought a joking grin from my bloody lips, which disappeared right after my mate uttered the most sacred sentence that was terrible for all wolves who have a mate.
"I, Jacob Night! Reject you as my mate!" My body shivered violently; all the strength seemed to be sucked out. I glared at him, who didn't care about me and his son; it was damn that he continued the sentence more painful than anything in this world. End of your life!!!"
So, Jacob and Liliana colluded to torture me like this. This is how it ended, I started to laugh, but everyone who heard his threat fell silent in shock. My laugh caught his attention, and we stared into each other's eyes, but there were still no ripples on the sapphire of the serene ocean; I felt like tearing it apart!
But then I started crying, my stomach hurt so much, and I started to moan. I hope he dies; anyone, please kill the man in front of me!
My teeth chattered angrily, "How dare you... HOW DARE YOU, JACOB, NIGHT!!!" I screamed hysterically, getting up to lunge at my former mate but was held back by the chains. "I swear!! I will kill you all, and I hate you to my bones!!"
I knelt again and stared at the prison ceiling with sorrow; I would rather die than meet him!
"I chose to die rather than meet you; I truly vowed to kill you and Liliana!!!—Arghhh!!!" An intense pain came from his stomach, like a stomach torn open.
Painful, hot, and terrible pain until his whole body vibrated.
The pain made his eyes darken slowly, "No! Please don't... Please hold on for mother, son... Please...."
I don't want to pass out at a time like this; I don't want to wake up alone again!
Please, don't leave Mommy alone!
.....
"Come on; I want to see him one last time before he's sent to Middletown." The seducing voice of a woman woke me up from a long sleep; I didn't expect to wake up again. But why did Moongoddess give my life back? My reflexes hold my still big belly.
I'm grateful...
I sighed before moving my cramped leg and winced; it hurt so bad. My whole body aches and pains, and my eyes stare at the prison ceiling, it's still in the same place, and I haven't been transferred as a suspect in the murder of Luna, who looks so fine in front of me now.
"Oh, she's awake!" her voice sounded excited in contrast to my pitiful condition. I saw someone approaching and recognized her disgusting scent. "Hi!! I thought you were dead; thank goodness you're still alive. I don't want you to die easily, my friend…"
Spit!
And I got my second slap from Liliana Skyler, my former best friend.
"How dare dirty blood like you spit on me!!" her hand moved again and hit my head until my nose was bleeding. "You should just give up because this is the end of your life!" it turned out that he was the same as the other Moon packs, so it could be estimated that she approached me to do this with my mate.
I don't want to face this traitor; let her spit back at me. But there is one thing I would like to ask to reassure me and ensure that I can kill her without hesitation in the future.
"Why are you friends with me if you hate a disgusting, filthy mixed blood like me, Liliana!"
I heard her laugh, "Sure, to give you time to play house with your mate; he hates your dirty blood. But I asked him to accept you before selling yourself to the hungry old vampires in Eastern Osiris; everything that happened to you was my plan from the start. You should have realized that your mother is the woman who took my father from my mother's side!!" she stomped my foot as hard as he could, and I winced.
The answer was enough for me to get rid of all doubts in my heart, this was indeed planned, and I, who was desperate then, was easily tricked.
"Thank you, I can rest assured to kill you—argh!!" she kicked me in the stomach, and I panicked with the most terrible pain.
"No!! No, my child!" I was hysterical when I realized the warm flow in my vagina.
"In your dream, damn it! Take her, Jacob… this dirty woman spit in my face!"
My body was pulled out of the prison while looking at those two traitors, Liliana was clinging coquettishly to my ex-mate, and I started crying again because I left a trail of blood in every drag of the guards on the floor.
My son's blood, no! Please! Natalie, where are you, please? I need someone to help me!!!
