Chapter 108
THE ALPHA OF THE RED MOON PACK
FIRA’S POV
I held back myself when I left Carter in the hallway. I heard that Cass was calling me because the Alpha from the Red Moon Pack was in the kingdom now.
I ran as fast as I could to get the tray of food and fall in line, accompanying my fellow omegas. We were not talking. We were just bowing our heads when the Alpha ramped at the red carpet. I only saw his black shoes and a warrior suit. It was different from the king’s garment. The color was brown and I think it was hard to protect his body. There was also a sword hanging at his hips.
“Welcome to the king, Alpha Janus.”
My lips apart as I heard that name. I did not see his face, King Arealdo ordered us just to lowered our heads because we were just low borns.
Possibly he has the same name as Janus? Right?
Maybe.
“Show me the plan.” The Alpha did not acknowledge his greeting, he jumped into his motive.
Does he have the same voice as him?
I wanted to move up my head, but I had no strength to do that. I was scared that I might get punished if I looked at him.
“Sure, Alpha.” King Arealdo sounded like trembling.
Does the King fear him?
They talked about the plan of the Red Moon Pack and the Elemental Kingdom. I knew that the pack was one of the great warriors so King Arealdo was soft, gentle so as not to make any misunderstanding between them.
“I’ll stay here for a month. I’m just looking for someone.” I heard the Alpha’s voice. I peeped a bit. I only saw his broad shoulder.
“No problem, Alpha. You can stay as long as you want,” King Arelado said. He gave him a glass of wine. “Enjoy your stay.”
“Enjoyment is not in my vocabulary.” The Alpha was rude. “We’ll talk about what the benefits of my pack if we accept the alliance?”
“You’ll have a continuous supply of food and water. I heard that your pack is lacking those-”
“Are you saying that my pack is poor? Need your help?” His voice was full of power like an unbreakable warrior.
“No, no, Alpha. I’m just trying my best to offer something beneficial. Can you not grab that? Your people will not be hungry and they can have more time to rest.”
“Okay. I’ll grab it. What else?”
I could not see what was happening. I could just hear the conversation.
I think he is not Janus, my friend. His voice was husky with overflowing rudeness. My friend was a kind man and he would never disrespect women unlike what they were saying about this Alpha.
“Ahm…” I guessed that King Arealdo was thinking about what else he could give. “You can go here anytime you want and… ahm. If your pack is attacked by the opponent we can back you up.”
“That’s given. Alliance is like the bonding of two organizations. I’m not satisfied, what else?” The Alpha looked like bored with the topic.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
The silence filled the area, meaning that King Arealdo had nothing to offer.
“How about showing me your omegas?”
My heart was pounding with nervousness. I felt the hold of Cass in my hand. She heard a lot from this Alpha and those were not good. He loved to hear the women screaming while taking them on his bed. He was a savage man, killing and abusing women. He hated ladies a lot which we did not know the reason for.
“Oh, sure! That would be good. Omegas are just garbage to us. Would you want to look at the omegas on your back? They’re standing there.”
I gasped harsh air, trying to calm myself while holding the hand of Cass. The sweat was producing on my forehead. I was swallowing so hard as if it could relief the tension that I was dealing with.
I heard the creak of the chair moving backward. The Alpha stood up and walked towards us. I could only view his shoes walking in my direction.
“These are the omegas taking care of the kitchen. They’re not that attractive-”
“I want her.”
My heart skipped to beat when he pointed at someone. I slowly looked up. My body trembled as I saw that his finger was pointing on me.
But I was so surprised more when my eyes landed on his face. “Janus…”
He did not speak, he just walked away from us and spoke. “Where is my room? Bring her with me.”
Cass gripped my hand tightly. The guard was recklessly holding my arm, but Cass was not letting go. “No, please! You can get me! Not Fira!” I could see how scared she was. “King, please!”
Although I recognized that he is Janus, my friend and the alpha is one. I could not feel any security. That man was different.
How sure am I that he would not hurt me? How can Janus become an Alpha? Or was he really my friend? Maybe he has a twin brother or a brother, exactly looks like him?
“Please!” Cass knelt down at King Arealdo. “Fira can’t bear the pain! She’s innocent! She’s a virgin! She’ll be hurt so much! Get me, instead of her!” Cass was pleading so bad, crying with her heart out.
I was just sobbing while holding her hand back.
The part about the virgin was not true. I just did not talk about that matter to her. She didn’t know what happened to me and Pyro.
“Cass…” I removed my tears with my index finger. “I’ll be okay. Please don’t do this.”
“No, Fira! You know everything that I told you about him! He is-”
I covered her mouth. She would have punishment for saying bad description for the alpha. “It won’t kill me.”
“No! He can.” She whispered while the tears were flooding in her face. She looked at the side, left and right. “King Fire! King Fire!” She was calling him as if he would arrive at any moment.
“Shh! Stop it. He’s not here and he would never come for me.” Even if it ached me so much. I slowly removed her hands on me. “I’ll survive. I promised.”
I silently sobbed as the guard pulled me away from her. I watched her put her forehead on the floor and still pleaded with the king, but King Arealdo played deaf.
There’s nothing will be lost on me. I had dirt in my body when I gave myself to Pyro. I will just pretend that I love him.
Acted that I love him like how I love Pyro.
I am a loser because of my tears now, but I will never be a loser for pretending something that I am not just to save myself.
