CHAPTER 08: The War Has Begin
"FASTER, DAMN IT!" Mason hissed at Lilian when she slowed down from walking. He's now preparing
his black horse before he grabbed her wrist and put a rope around it. He tightened the rope, securing
her both wrists won't move freely. Lilian looked at him with confusion as her heart hammered against
her chest in so much fear.
"W-What are you doing?" Lilian asked with her trembling tone when Mason suddenly rode the black
horse. The rope that's tightened on her wrists is attached on the horse's head, slightly pulling her hand
as it moves. She gulped as her gaze went to the wide field in front of them. The sunlight is hurting her
skin since she's still wearing her undergarments. She felt the heat on her cheek when she realized that
she's too exposed in front of the wolves.
There are some wolves walking around and busy with their own work. Some of them stared at her and
Mason but didn't say a word and just acted like nothing was happening, afraid that Mason will get angry
if ever they meddle on what he's doing.
"You disgusting Omega! How dare you mess up with the Luna?!" Mason shouted as he glanced at the
wolves on the field before pointing at Lilian. "Everyone, listen to me! This woman right here is a thief!
Our Luna Gianna was the one who caught her!"
A series of gasp escape from the mouth of the wolves who heard what Mason said. Their eyes are
widening as if they are too shocked by the news that he suddenly blurted out. Lilian wanted to defend
herself and tell them the truth like the way she told Luna that she was wrong in her accusation but no
words came out from her mouth, like she was too tired of explaining herself since she already knew
that they wouldn't believe her in the first place.
An Omega like her has no rights to say what she or he wants that easily. No one will even bother to
listen to her.
"What?! She's a thief!?"
"Oh, goodness! She should be punished!"
"How dare she?!"
The wolves started to murmur something that Lilian could barely understand. Her eyes are getting
blurry because of her own tears as her head is spinning so bad. Lilian was just looking down, staring at
her own feet while hearing the murmurs of the wolves, sobbing quietly and making sure that they
wouldn't see her tears streaming down her face.
"Don't worry, ya'll! This woman will be punished to not make the same mistake again. We will make
sure that she won't have another victim again," Mason said sharply before looking at the horse he's
riding and suddenly whip its back making it neigh and start to run.
Fear embraced Lilian's system when she realized that she would be pulled as the horse ran fast! Lilian
had no other choice but to also run but then the horse ran so fast that she couldn't keep up with its
pace anymore. Mason kept on whipping the horse back, making it run faster so she had no choice but
to also fasten her pace.
No one bothered to help her. The wolves are just watching her being pulled harshly by the horse that
Mason is riding. Lilian is getting tired as her throat went dry because of the hotness of the sunlight.
Until Lilian couldn't keep up anymore. She dropped on the ground while she's being pulled by the
horse, trying to escape from the rope around her wrists but it was so tight that she couldn't even
remove it. Her body was brushed harshly on the ground because of the sharp rocks and humps. It
hurts her to the core that she couldn't help but to scream in so much pain. Not to mention that the
healing of the wounds are also slow, making everything worse.
"S-Stop! Please, stop!" Lilian shouted as her body started to bleed because of the sharp rocks.
But Mason didn't stop. He keeps on making the horse run while Lilian is being pulled harshly. She
couldn't even turn into her wolf form since she couldn't concentrate and focus anymore. She was too
consumed by her own fear and the physical pain on her body. The ground was so rough that she was
stabbed by the sharp twigs of a tree, making her wince in pain.
"Ah!" Lilian shouted when she felt the twigs ripped on her skin. She's bleeding and the pain won't just
go away because her healing is so slow since she's an Omega.
Lilian's eyes are closing already as her head spin. Her throat is getting dry because of the heat and so
much shouting, pleading that Mason will hear her and stop what he's doing to her. But he didn't listen.
He never listens to her pleas and beggings. There's a smug smirk on his lips as he rode the horse,
whipping its back to make it run fast.
When Lilian thought that everything was finished already, a tall man suddenly came to Mason, making
the horse stop from pulling her harshly. The tall man was blurry in front of Lilian's eyes but she was
able to hear what he said to Mason.
"This is another order from Luna. She said that you should kill Omega, she's a threat to her relationship
with Alpha Karius," the tall man said, making Lilian's lips slightly hung open.
What did he say? There's another order from Luna and that was to kill her? She gasped.
Even though she already accepted the fact that she's living without a purpose already, she couldn't
help but to feel sad about the reason for her death. This is absurd, Lilian thought. After what she heard,
she had already concluded that Luna Gianna knew about her secret relationship with Alpha Karius
before! What the tall man just said is enough evidence that she knew everything about them.
"Don't worry. Even though our Luna wouldn't say anything about that, I would still kill her," Mason said
coldly before glancing at Lilian who looked weak and helpless. He smirked at the sight of her breathing
heavily with bruises on her body. "After all, an Omega like her is too useless to be included in the pack.
I won't go easy on her," he added.
At that moment, Lilian smiled bitterly. She suddenly liked the idea of disappearing in this world to be
with her child instantly. After all, she's been missing him ever since the day that he was taken away
from her.
With that thought, she fell into a deep slumber.
* * *
LILIAN THOUGHT THAT she's already dead the moment she opened her eyes again. She imagined
being in a better place. She thought that she's now in another dimension and happy with her child. But
she was wrong.
The moment that she felt the pain on her body again, she gasped in the realization that she's still alive.
And confusion is now written on her face when she sees the wolves in the pack looking at her with
disgust and anger. They started to throw eggs and rocks at her, making her dodge it despite her body
pain and bruises.
"P-Please, stop!" Lilian crossed her arms on her head and avoided the rocks and eggs that were
thrown on her. She started to sob and cry at the pain, begging them to stop. Her head is spinning so
bad that even with the slightest movement, she's passing out.
She wanted to run but she's caged inside a jail. She had no other choice but to just dodge the throws.
"Kill her!"
"She's just an Omega! She should be killed!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Lilian couldn't help but to cry helplessly. She thought that after being pulled harshly, she would die and
her misery would end instantly. But she was wrong. Here's another pain that they're causing her. And
what really hurts the most is the fact that no one had the courage to defend her. She saw Penny,
Clarine, Jasmine and Dahlia in the crowd, crying for her. Lilian smiled bitterly at that sight. She couldn't
really blame them. Their rank as a wolf has no power to make everyone stop. For sure, they are also
scared for their own lives.
The wolves only stop from throwing rocks and eggs at her when a tall figure of a woman stepped up on
the platform in front. Lilian slowly held up her face and gasped when she saw the Luna of the pack, the
sole reason why she's in her situation right now.
Luna Gianna proudly looked at the whole pack with an intimidating expression. The pack bowed down
on her as a sign of respect. She's wearing a dress that emphasizes her curves. She looked innocent
but Lilian knew better. Behind her innocent face is a woman who has an anger issue and is willing to kill
someone easily. Lilian is the living proof of that. Lilian was accused of something that she didn't do.
That's why she's in her situation right now.
"L-Luna Gianna..." she whispered as her hand balled into fist, trembling so bad upon looking at her.
"I called you all here, my beloved pack, to witness how we punish this woman right here." Gianna
pointed Lilian inside the cage who's now breathing raggedly as she glared at her. "This is for everybody
to see that anyone who defies the order from the Luna... or from the Alpha will face a rightful
punishment. And for the information of everybody, this woman is a thief!"
Everyone gasped at what Gianna said and started murmuring something again.
Meanwhile, Lilian looked down when she realized that their Luna was getting out of hand. Alpha Karius
should stop her. She's deciding for the pack when in fact, the Alpha should be also involved in this
matter. What happened to him? Lilian couldn't help but to think about the man who hurt her.
"You know, it's very important inside the pack to follow all the rules. This is to maintain a harmonious
relationship with one another. And what this woman did is not a good example to everybody, especially
to the young pups out there. We can't just tolerate what she did. We don't want our pups to grow up
seeing this kind of wolf, right?"
"Right!"
"Our Luna is right!"
"Then, it would be better if we eliminate them early! What should we do to her?!" Gianna asked. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"Kill her! Kill! Kill!" Everyone cheered like it was so normal to just kill someone easily.
"Very well---"
It was so fast. Luna Gianna wasn't able to continue what she was saying when a wolf suddenly
attacked the wolves in front, making everyone gasp. From the looks of the wolf who suddenly attacked,
Lilian realized that it was an intruder.
Lilian thought that it would stop instantly but then it didn't. The wolves that suddenly attacked continued
until some wolves came and also started to attack the whole Moon Stone Pack.
Lilian's mouth hangs open when she witnesses everything. The war has begun... but who are these
wolves who suddenly came here to attack the Moon Stone Pack?
