Soraya's POV
Goosebumps climbed up my skin, as my body shook in fear, along with an embarrassing feeling— one I refused to name.
I lowered my head in shame, a whimper dancing at the back of my throat, as their stares stabbed me in place.
~ Mates. Angry. You make mates angry.
Jada whined in my head, pacing restlessly to be let out.
Stop.
I begged, but I knew it was useless.
All she wanted was to calm her mates. It was a stupid omega nature I despised, yet it weighed heavily on my mind.
Jada's whines turned into cries, leaving my body trembling.
"Omega." Lucen suddenly growled, his deep red eyes flashing. "I'll give you one last chance to redeem yourself or don't blame us if we are forced to remind you who your masters are."
The way he said it.
His voice was low, breathy. Rumbling through the walls, and slamming straight into my already distorted heart.
~ Mate.
Jada whined again, turning her belly upwards in the back of my head.
Instantly I felt it.
Like being tugged, the bond thrummed, causing my body to grow hot.
No.
I thought, feeling my bones weaken, and my core clench painfully.
Heat.
I was going into heat, and battling with my wolf and mate bond wasn't the best for me since I was losing.
I needed to get out of here. I don't want to be anywhere near them.
"I…" I took a small step back, my eyes flickering around the room, only to be cut off by a snarl from Draven.
"Take another step." He threatened, his canine glistening under the light. "I dare you."
I froze in place, my heart pounding like a drum ready to tear for wear.
"You—"
I choked, my words getting stuck in my throat.
Leave.
I wanted to shout at their faces. Scream even, but somehow I couldn't.
Feeling their hot stares prick me, I felt heat rise beneath my skin, an unnatural flush spreading to my face.
Still I tried my best in glaring at both of them.
I refuse to become at their mercy once more.
"Still defiant I see." Draven said, taking a slow steady stride towards me.
Lucen however didn't move an inch, his silence causing my heart to skip a beat.
Lucen's eyes thinned as they settled on me.
My body instantly went stiff, perspiration dripping down my back.
Did he find out?
I shook my head, trying to get that thought out.
Although I was going into heat, he couldn't have possibly known.
I wasn't giving off any scent. I made sure of it.
Strengthening my resolve, I looked into his eyes, ignoring Draven who wore an amused look on his face.
"Brother, did something happen?" He tilted his head, the red hue in his eyes deepening.
Very unlike him, Lucen's face twisted. At that moment, the indifferent looking triplet looked very much like his other brothers.
"Take a deep breath brother. You'll thank me later."
In that very moment, the colour on my face drained, my mind going blank.
Draven's nose twitched, and I knew it was over for me when his eyes suddenly changed.
"Did you think you could hide it from us, omega?" Lucen's voice sounded from the side, a hint of mockery jabbing at my pride. "How foolish."
Tears welled in my eyes at his words, but still my traitorous body refused to take note of the situation.
A fresh wave of heat crashed into me, slick sliding down my panties.
I blushed, lowering my head in shame knowing they could smell it.
"I should have known. A slutty omega like you can never change can you?" Draven teased the evil glint in his eyes passing he came close to me.
My heart thumped wildly in my chest, the tantalizing scent of my mate hitting me and making me and my wolf almost insane.
~Mate.
Jada purred, pushing forward to offer herself to him like a slut.
My skin burned in anger. The need to hit Jada so overwhelming.
Why did the moon goddess curse me with a wolf like this?
We can't change, neither can she defend me, yet she throws me in danger.
Didn't she see how these so-called mates treated us? Despite being disappointed time and time again, how can she still fall for them?
I cursed in my heart, tears blurring my sight, when I felt a huge hand cup my chin.
Tingles swept through me at the contact, my brain instantly turning to mush as the hand lifted my chin up.
My eyes locked on to the deepest shade of sapphire I had ever seen. Deep, red, haunting. Like blood spilled onto marbled tiles.
~Mate.
Jada purred again.
For once I didn't hate that. I felt lost staring into his eyes.
I never knew they were this beautiful.
However, the soul was not. I came to that painful realization once more as he opened his mouth.
Like he knew what I thought, Draven smirked, his voice falling. "Omega, did you really think you could seduce us with your pheromones?"
His grip on my chin tightened, and I winced at the pain, grabbing his arm.
Jada whined sadly in my head as the cold water was suddenly dumped.
Of course I expected it, so I didn't say anything. I only felt embarrassed.
"You can scheme however you want, but know that nothing will excuse you from the punishment we have in store for you." He said coldly, letting go of my chin forcefully.
Like he had touched something filthy, Draven wiped off his hand with a handkerchief, disgust written all over his face.
The sight breaks me, but I know not to let it bother me.
Lucen actively steps forward, the same glint in his eyes. "This is your last warning. Your pheromones won't affect us, but if you'll like to keep testing that, you can continue. It won't delay the inevitable."
I lowered my head in embarrassment, my toes curling in shame.
For the very first time in my life, I wished the earth would end my existence, but that would be impossible.
The moon goddess wouldn't be so kind to grant me that pleasure.
"Are you perhaps shy?" Lucen cocked a brow, amused. "It's not like it's your first rodeo. Just that this one is unsuccessful. After all, omegas only know how to ride an alpha cock best."
My head snapped towards him instantly.
How dare he?
For all the omegas out there, I felt shame and anger boil through me.
Did he have any idea what we suffered? The stereotypes and the insults we have to endure?
Did he know what it means or how hard it is to live and accept the fact that you can't be anything just because of the rank you came out with?
Fueled, I moved without thinking, and did the only thing I could do then. Shove him. Hard.
Perhaps, not expecting it, Lucen staggered, his body moving to the side, in shock
We all froze. Our eyes went wide— my hand outstretched— before horror slowly crept in.
What had I done?
I thought, fear clouding me as Lucen's shock slowly morphed into rage. "How dare you?!" He growled, lunging at me.
In panic, I moved, my body darting past him and towards the door on instinct.
"Get back here!" Lucen growled from behind me, my heart slamming in my chest as I ran.
Tears licked at my cheeks, sliding down. "I am sorry." I cried out, still heading towards the door.
In my haze, I forgot one crucial thing.
They were two, not one, and that truth settled when the door suddenly slammed shut before I could reach it.
"No!" I screamed, coming to a stop, when Draven appeared in front of me with a wicked smirk.
"Did you think you could run?"
Ba-dum.
My heart stuttered as I felt lucen's presence behind me, desperation clawing in as I realized once more I was trapped.
"Strip." Lucen's voice boomed, his heavy breathing sending my heart into a stop.
"I…" I choked, gripping my dress.
I couldn't do it. No matter how hard I forced myself to, I just couldn't.
So I stood, more tears flowing down my face as I silently pleaded with my eyes.
Draven's face darkened, a low growl tearing his throat. "Omega, we've had enough."
With that, they moved in sync. Brutal and cold.
Then the only thing I felt was my clothes being stripped from my body, followed by the harsh tearing sound of fabric ripping.
"Please— stop!" I begged, trying to cover myself with my hands, but it was useless.
Another rip, and I felt my panties snapping in half. "Stop!"
My cry was loud, as I tried hanging onto the thin fabric, but they didn't listen.
With another tug, I felt my panties fall to the ground, my pleas falling on deaf ears.
"Jada, do something." I pleaded to my wolf, but all I got was silence.
Pain numbing silence that made me realize Jada had once again sided with them.
"So you'll rather let them do this to me?" I screamed at her, hurt and feeling betrayed, but all I got was my wolf purring in contentment.
~Mate…
