Naomi's pov.
I paced my cell, waiting for news on my father. I couldn't believe that they had not gotten my father a doctor like I had asked. I wasn't even sure why I had believed that they would. They all hated my guts and it was simply because I was, according to them, a representation of what had happened to them twenty years ago.
Not only was I hurt by their words, I was distraught, growing up without a mother and a barely-there adoptive father was more brutal on me than I'd like to admit. Sometimes, I found myself wishing he'd never found me.
I heard footsteps walking into the dungeon and my heart began to beat in my chest. I needed to know that my father was okay. That was all that mattered to me right now…
Alpha Baron who'd disappeared awhile ago appeared in front of my cell with his eyes blazing with what looked like hate. I quickly scrambled up from the floor and ran towards him, holding the bar that separated us both.
"How is he?" I asked, my voice coming out panicked. I didn't like the look on his face and neither did Jen.
"He's dead," the Alpha's words were crisp and precise as they came out.
"No!" I shook my head, sure that I had heard wrong.
"Please tell me, it's not true," I choked out.
"Don't pretend like this wasn't your plan alone. You killed him," he spat, venom dripping from his tongue. He looked like he was trying not to rip my heart out with his bare claws.
I felt a lump begin to form in my throat, my heart beating in my chest rapidly.
I was paralyzed in the spot for a while, shaking my head, refusing to believe his words or acknowledge them
"He can't be," I whispered to myself.
"Don't play dumb with me, you disgusting whore, I know this was part of your plans. You probably killed your father, thinking I'd allow you into the pack house,"
"What? No!" Tears ran down my cheeks as he continued to taunt me.
"Admit it, you whore," he spat, venom in his eyes.
I shook my head, denying his accusations.
"Why would I kill my father? I loved him. He was the only one that ever truly cared about me!"
"Please z like Rogues need a reason to kill," he spat.
"But, I'm not a rogue," I said weakly.
Alpha Baron's eyes narrowed at him and he grabbed me by the neck through the bar and slammed me against the iron cepp door.
"You do not speak when I speak, do you understand!" His voice boomed, shaking me to the core.
I had never seen such hatred in someone's eyes before her and I had spent most of my life being hated and looked down on.
"Answer me!" His growled and I nodded, choking out a yes. Tears slipped down my eyes as he let go of me and I sank to the ground.
I needed to see my father, I needed to see him for myself. I couldn't bring myself to believe that he was gone.
"Prepare for your trial tomorrow. Your fate will be decided in the pack," he said and walked off before I could ask what that meant.
"I'm so sorry father," I whispered in my cell. This was all my fault.
I wasn't sure when I fell asleep but I knew I did so, crying.
I woke up to the sound of the rattling of chains. I sat up to find guards opening up my cell door.
"Out you go!" One of them said as he walked towards me. He grabbed my hands and handcuffed both together and led me out of the cell.
"Where are you taking me?" I asked as I looked between the two guards walking beside me.
"Shut up and keep moving," one of them yelled, pushing me to move faster.
I knew I wasn't about to be released judging by the handcuff and fear groped my chest. What were they going to do with me? I bit my lips.
Jen didn't like what was going on either. She seemed scared which was unusual for her.
We came out from the dungeon and instantly I was taken to the council meeting Courtroom.
It wasn't hard to figure out that I was about to be tried.
The place was jam-packed with pack members, waiting for my verdict.
As I was being walked into the courtroom, I locked eyes with Lily. She looked like she was trying to hold back tears.
"I'll be fine," I mouthed as I passed her, trying to look confident for her when I was the furthest thing from confident. I was screaming inside and praying for the moon goddess.
Within the courtroom, I was made to stand on the podium as the council members and elders settled down.
Alpha Baron was seated in front and he was glaring daggers at me.
I shifted in my position. Even after he'd rejected me, I still felt a strong connection to him and I hated it.
A council member stood and walked up to the podium across from me and began.
"We are gathered here today for the trial of a Miss Naomi Dupont who is charged for talking back at the Alpha and an attempt to attack him and being responsible for the death of her adoptive father. Elder Jones Dupont, due to negligence.
My eyes widened at the charges laid against me.
"That's not true.." I tried to explain myself but I was immediately silenced by the councilman.
I listened as he judged my case, adding things that I didn't even commit. I felt betrayed by my mate and I wanted to scream but couldn't. All I could do was watch as my fate was being decided by the council.
I was dreaming, I had to be. There was no other way to look at it.
"You are hereby banished from the Raven claw pack." The man said and my heart immediately fell to my stomach.
Naomi's povEverything moved in slow motion as the guards carried me out of the courtroom.I had been banished?It was like I was in some kind of trans.I didn' want to believe it.I heard Lily call out my name in the crowd and I glanced at her, unable to hide my tears anymore."Help me!" I yelled and she barreled through the crowd yelling "Rogue must go!" trying to get to me."Let her go!" Lily yellled as she neared but she was instantly blocked by the guards. I tried to stretch my hands to hold her but we just couldn't reach each other."Naomi!" She yelled, trying to reach me still but no matter how much she tried, she just couldn't get to me.I cried out loud begging for them to let me go or at least let me see my father but they didn't listen.Lily's voice became a distant memory as they pushed me into the back of the car and drove me to the border of the car."Get out you murderer!" One of the guards dragged me out and pushed me till I was outside the border of the pack."Please
Naomi’s povI couldn’t hold in the laughter after hearing what the young man standing in front of me said to me, I looked at him and laughed out loud.While laughing I stared at him and realized he was not smiling which means he might be serious when he said that to me. My smile slowly faded as my face got serious.“Do you mean what you just said to me?” I asked him with a serious look on my face. He stared at me and heaved a sigh.“I mean what I said, we’ve searched everywhere for you, but all these years you’ve been nowhere to be found, luckily the moon goddess brought you my way.” I blinked my eyes several times and pinched my cheeks to confirm it wasn’t a nightmare.“Ouch!” I screamed out when I felt the pain of pinching myself on the cheek. There’s no way I’ve been going through so much when I’m supposed to be living as royalty. “How…sure are you, I'm the one you’ve been Looking for?”I asked for clarity and stared at his face to test the sincerity in his reply. “The birthmark on
Naomi povI couldn’t stop pacing around the room after the Omega came to tell me about dinner.I couldn’t tell where to start from and what I would say to them while eating with them for dinner.“This is not good.” I muttered to myself feeling ashamed, I don’t know why I was feeling too ashamed but I really shouldn’t be feeling this way.I stood up from the bed after summoning the courage to step out of the room. I walked to the mirror and stared at myself, then I closed my eyes and took a deep breath before stepping out of the room.While walking down the stairs everyone's attention moved to me as I was walking downstairs, it felt like I was sinking inside the ground as I sighted all of them staring at me.“Hi.” I said awkwardly as I sat down to eat.“That’s mine.” A light voice from behind said to me the moment I sat on the chair.“Cassie, don’t be rude.” The Alpha said to her. From the way he sounded I could immediately tell that he was a loving father to my supposed siblings becau
Alpha Baron povIt’s been days now since I banished my supposed mate out of the pack and I can’t stop thinking about her, which is why I feel banishing her was really the best thing for me to do.“Boss, are you listening to me?” My Beta called back my attention the moment he asked me the question. I snapped out of my thoughts and turned to look at him.“What were you saying?” I asked him so that he can explain everything he already said earlier. From the way he was staring at me I could already tell that he was curious to know where my head was when he was talking to me.“Boss I don’t think it’s okay for me to repeat everything I said, it’s better you take a break and clear your head.” I placed my hand on my forehead and sighed after hearing what my Beta said to me.I felt it was a punishment from the moon goddess for rejecting her in the first place.“Can I talk to you as a friend and not your Alpha?” I asked my Beta because I was in desperate need to talk to someone and explain what
Naomi povAfter taking a tour around the pack house with the help of my sisters, I realized that everyone in the pack house had special power which makes the Dragonmoon pack stand out.“Are you settling well?” Cassie asked. I looked around and sighed. When I first got here I thought I would go crazy because I couldn’t understand anyone or anything, but after spending a little time, I guess I’ll be able to settle sooner than I expected.“With the help of you two I guess I am.” I said to them with a smile on my face. After spending little time with them, I realized that Cassie was a good girl very different from what I imagined her to be, which is why I’m very curious to know why she reacted that way to the dining.“Good to hear.” Annabelle said with her soft voice. Annabelle is the opposite of Cassie, she is very calm and soft spoken, even when she’s angry she knows how to control it like she did that day on the dining table.While we were smiling I couldn’t stop stressing my head tryin
Naomi pov“You must be finding it hard to settle.” Alpha Jethro said to me with a smile on my face. I didn’t feel comfortable replying to him like a family member so I was conflicted on how to go about replying to him.“I am not, everyone has been really nice to me.” I replied to him and smiled brightly. Alpha Jethro seemed like a very smart person and he’s someone that can tell if I’m lying to him. He smiled and nodded his head. “Let’s go out for a walk.” He said to me and we both walked out of the room. It felt surreal that I was walking with my biological father which is something I never imagined to happen. All my life I have been taking care of my sick father so we never got to do things father and daughter do. While we were walking Alpha Jethro private security walked behind us. “That spot over there was your mothers favorite.” He said time with a smile on his face, I noticed Alpha Jethro must have been madly in love with my mother but I wonder why I didn’t get the chance to
Naomi povAfter having a nice conversation with my father I headed back to the room and tiredly sat on the bed. With everything he said to me, the one that seemed unbelievable is that I possess a special power that no one in the Dragonmoon pack possesses.“That has to be a joke.” I smirked. I couldn’t bother myself with such information because I know that I don’t possess such power so I don’t think my father knows what he’s talking about. I laid on the bed when I heard a knock in the door. “Argggg.” I grinned as I heard the knock on the door. I haven’t had a good rest since I got here. “What is it this time.” I muttered as I walked to the door. “Ma’am you have a guest.” I was shocked to hear what the maid said to me. “A guest?” I asked with my eyes open wider than normal. How would anyone come to see me, when I just got here and I don’t know anyone. I closed the door and walked to my closet so that I can pick a dress to wear. It’s my first time having a guest in my life. I lived
Naomi povAlbert led the way and I followed him behind as he took me to the room where my tutors were waiting. I just know that I’m not going to have it easy with Albert being my personal adviser, he’s too serious for me. “There you go.” He opened the door telling me to go in first. I didn’t hesitate before going inside the room. When I walked in I sighted young ladies already sitting inside the room. They looked like they were waiting for their turn on the runway. How can they be my tutors? “Is this a joke?” I asked Albert in a whisper. “Naomi, these are your tutors, they will be training you in how to live like a princess. They are experts so you have nothing to worry about. I have always hated studying since I was younger and now I have to study everything about the Dragonmoon pack, and the officials with the post they are holding. “This is going to be tough.” I whispered to Albert so the ladies would not hear. Albert acted like he didn’t hear what I said to him. “I’ll take
