Ruined(Eternal Monarch)

Alex’s POV

“Alpha, we went to the location you directed us to, but we were unable to locate her.” I snarled.

“Are you expecting me to presume that you’re all incompetent?”

I slammed my hand against the table and cracked. “Is it even possible for me to put my faith in you idiots, to do anything as basic as a simple thing? I merely request that you search for your Luna, but you idiots will always return empty-handed. Was it truly a waste of my money to train you knuckleheads?”

It’s been fucking five years since I last saw my mute mate.

Is she aware that I have been looking for her? Is it possible that someone informed her that I wanted her back? Why is it so difficult to locate a helpless human being who lacks a backbone?

My beta came to me at my office.

“Juno, I don’t think she could have handled the death of her son well, Alpha. We’ve searched every town and city, but haven’t located her. That girl had a death wish. Don’t you believe she may have committed suicide?”

“No, I have my doubts. If that was the case, Desmond could have told me. There appears to be another person seeking her, but Desmond is too afraid to give his name. The question is, what is he looking for in her?”

In my head, Jackson’s roar rings. He’s been threatening me for the last five years because I haven’t found his mate.

Is it possible that the other person located her before I did? Who the fuck is this guy? Does the individual wish to die? I have a large number of warriors? Does this imply that they are ineffective? How come they can’t find that muted girl after all these years?

“Martin, you are capable of more. Bring your Luna to me.” He nodded and moved away as my sister entered.

Are you certain this woman is not assisting my mate in concealment?

“What exactly do you want?” I yelled.

“Nothing, I just wanted to see how pitiful your life is now that you are unable to have your own pup. Until you locate the one person for whom you have caused so much grief, which you and I both know will never return to you.”

“Get the fuck out!”

“Of course, alpha, before I forget, rumor has it that someone from the upper echelons is also looking for Juno. I’m simply praying that the individual encounters her before you do. You do not deserve a pup. You killed Darrian from within Juno’s womb, and you failed to preserve your own son. What am I trying to convey? Your one and only pup, the only pup you’ll ever have in this lifetime. With your two hands, you killed him.”

“Expel your bowels!” He snarled.

“Certainly, alpha.”

She walked away. My own sister was making fun of me. At the back of my mind, I could hear Jackson bellowing,

“Kill her!”

I’m sure he’s just waiting for me to lose it so he can take over and start murdering people because they can’t find his mate.

Juno’s POV

The sky is dark, yet the pale moonlight catches the snowflakes on the ground and makes them shimmer. The branches of the tree above formed jagged and twisted silhouettes. It was bitterly cold. I plod along with one of the many footpaths that are much easier to use and see. The trail leads far into the wilderness. I noticed someone starting a fire. It appeared to be an elderly man.

What on earth is an elderly man doing in the middle of the forest? No, Juno, don’t go up to him. What if he isn’t human at all? Is it possible that Alex sent him?

I was told I was a wanted person the last time I contacted my folks. Alex wanted me to return to be his Luna. Over my dead body, of course. That’s why I’ve avoided the obvious routes. I went to the forest. Nobody could have guessed that I’d be bold enough to brave the cold weather or the wilderness. It is lethal. But I’m not afraid of death; I want to die. I came to a halt and stared at the man. My skin is tinged with trepidation. Shivers appear all over my physique. The hair on the back of my neck was standing up. The man stripped down to his underwear and stood naked. There was a gap between us. He then removed his shirt and began caressing his groin.

I looked around to see if there were any other people. I was clearly in the wrong place. Every man I saw was naked and caressing their groin. I clench my fists. I was feeling sick to my stomach. I want to die, but being raped is not something I want to experience again. Never, ever will I allow these elderly men to rape me without a fight. I studied my surroundings again and realized that I could outrun them. But I had the uneasy sense that I might be raped again today, after 5 years. I giggle at myself as I shake my head. I fled from a man who had been raping me for three years and was still searching for me. I’m about to be raped by a gang of ancient men. My sad life made me giggle. I turned around and returned along the same road when two more males appeared.

I shifted my gaze to the left and ahead. I noticed a road. I began calculating. It will take at least 3-5 minutes for these males to transform if they are wolves. They’re too old for a quick shift. It would take them around 5 minutes to come to me due to the distance between us. It takes 5 minutes to shift and another 5 minutes to reach me. Is it possible for me to go on that road in 10 minutes? I figured they wouldn’t want to disclose their true nature to humans, so the road was my scapegoat. So I took a step back and began fleeing. As I sprinted towards the road, the snow crunched loudly beneath my feet. Almost like electricity in my ears. The crunching was so loud that all the other critters around could have heard me sprinting. If at all there was any except for these wolves.

Five years as a mute street girl, five years of unsuccessful suicide attempts. The moon goddess, for some reason, does not wish me to die. However, I would never submit to being raped. I simply desired to follow the trail to the next city, as I have always done. For the last five years, I’ve been relocating places in quest of a way to die. Each day that passes, I miss my son more and more. Naturally, what happened to my son has accelerated my aging process. When I returned my gaze, I noticed they had transformed into wolves. Death wishes will not be granted. I noticed a luxurious car traveling at a high rate of speed. I stepped onto the road and allowed him to run me over. It’s better than getting raped by a group of elderly men. Perhaps this is the vehicle that will take me face to face with my son. I observed the driver making an attempt to change lanes. I sprang onto the road and landed directly on top of the car. I sighed and noticed the man approaching me. When I turned around, the old men were gone. Perhaps this man wishes to beat the living daylights out of me, but it is acceptable to allow him to do so. Instantly, the thought occurred to me:

What if he was one of them? What if he is always attempting to rape me?

My eyes open and close with a flickering motion. I sprang to my feet and took off running. He could be interested in raping me as well, or worse, one of Alex’s men. I didn’t get very far before a man blocked me as the other person exited the car. I’m looking for my notebook so I can jot things down quickly.

No rape. Kill me!Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

I turned to show the other man what I had put down. The two of us had our gaze locked, and I overheard him say,

“Reina, Juno, My love. I’ve finally found you.”

Rex!

I yelled at the back of my head.
