The Spurned Heir

The Beta grabbed her hair tightly and peered into her eyes.

"You little demon, you've got no right to question her!", He growled and slammed her down to the ground, making her shrill in pain.

"Listen to my order", My father began and everyone turned to him.

"Since she disobeyed my order, she would be severly punished! Get chains to lock her in that room, keep the doors shut all day except when she is being given food which should be a little quantity and just once daily to keep her alive. Also, add a little quantity of wolfsbane to the chain to torture her and keep her weak!", Dad ordered and i couldn't help the joy that filled my heart.

I quickly ran to him and gave him nice tight hugs.

"Dad, you are the best!",I murmured.

"But you've saved me before! Why are you being this cruel again?", We had Layla say and i sneered at her.

"Your magic isn't working anymore. You are a demon and I can't wait for your clan to arrive, I'll slay them all with my sword", the Beta howled.

"Take her away, please. She disgusts me!",I huffed and the guards dragged her away.

"Dad and mom, I love you both!",I squeaked.

"So, Noah is yours alone", my mother spoke, and I blushed.

"Yes, mom...",I couldn't stop grinning. I was really lucky to find out about Layla meeting him at an earlier stage.

She would have taken him away from me if i had wasted time, and I needed that Layla is evil and she was using demon's magic on him, and that he should love only me.

"Now go pull off your uniform, then go to the dining room for your food", Mom smiled and i nodded with a happy creak.

Oliver eyed me and I poked my tongue at him.

We all settled to eat.

"Daddy, who cooked this?", Oliver was the first to ask.

I shoved a spoonful of the jollof rice into my mouth and frowned.

"Yes, dad who cooked this?", i also asked this as the food tasted bad, not as good as it always did.

"Because Layla is imprisoned, the omegas and slaves cooked everything", Dad replied, and i sighed. Oliver hissed,

"So the fools cannot cook!!",he snorted.

"Layla's food is far better", I murmured quietly, hating myself for saying that, but I was sure I was not lying.

"She would poison us someday when her evil demon gets control over her. Let's forget about that devil!", My mother said out loud making everyone go back to their meals.

"Yes, that girl is bad!!... I pray she takes her own life someday", I huffed, rolling my eyes as I took another spoonful of the food.

"Noah doesn't know what he nearly got himself into; that girl would eat his heart out one day if we hadn't locked her up!", Oliver scorned.

"Noah is mine alone!!", I smiles to myself.

"I'll help you get that asshole!", Oliver smirked, and i rolled my eyes at him.

"You are the asshole here, scumbag!",I yelled to his face.

Noah's POV,

"If you coincedentally find your mate, what will you do?", Dad asked.

"Reject her at once", i replied just as Dad taught me, but this time i forced my voice to be steady and strong so he wouldn't notice the tension.

I had found my mate and couldn't reject her as he had always taught me. It isn't as easy as he said.

Layla is my mate, I can feel it.

How will I then reject her when I will be hurt more?

"Okay son, just have this in mind: very soon we will be waging war on the Shadow Pack", he gruffed.

Just then, a great idea came into my mind, making my heart throb with joy.

"Dad, I have something to say, I think it will be helpful!".

"Go on son!", he coaxed, sipping from the cup of wine on the table.

"Hazel, the only daughter of Dolph, loves me. She is obsessed with me. I want to fake a relationship with her and gain Dolph's trust. It will make it easy for us. She would end up helping us wiping her pack", I suggested and he squinted his eyes. "You mean she likes you?", He asked and i nodded, praying he agreed to this. I have my secret plans to get closer to Layla.

"I'll think about it. It is a nice idea. We can lure her into making things easier since she would be blinded by the love she has for you", He smirked and i nodded with a smile.

I stood up and headed to my room. I feel so happy now and can't wait for daddy to accept this. If i can get close to Hazel and be her boyfriend, I would visit her packhouse and get the chance to see my love. I'll be able to see Layla and help her...

You have no idea of how lonely I am without her, or how bad i feel knowing she is in pain as a result of the tortures and rejection from her family members.

I slumped on my bed and buried my face into my pillow. Her face was all that got into my head. I really can't wait to meet her tomorrow. Her smile brightens my dark soul.

I sat up from my bed, picked up a piece of paper, and began to draw a sketch of her, remember how she looked when we talked in that garden.

Oh my gosh...so beautiful!

Scarlett's POV,

I took out the Pack's map I stole immediately. I got into the secret chamber and loosed the ribbon holding it.

I spread it out on the huge centered table nd examined the entire drawing, which depicted every part of the pack and their defense stand, every single trap set for invaders, and the positions of the warriors both hiding in trees and those on ground.

There were also warriors who served as spies and whistleblowers, sending information when an attack was imminent.

I captured the whole content in my mind, trying to study every part of it accurately. I'll be sending a replica to the clan.

I need to complete my mission quickly. I can't wait to get that feeling of victory over Evelyn once more, watching her cry as she watches everything burn down.

My demon clan had offered to help me get revenge. I have to do things quickly before Layla makes it harder. I am afraid she has some special abilities that may stop me.

A smug smile filled my face as I successfully captured the whole map content into my head. It had been so hard to get this map. For so many years, living as the Luna, I had not know where it was. It was the pack's most credential information, but this night, I successfully found it.

He thought I was asleep and brought it out to check. I was half asleep and caught a glimpse of where it was while he kept it back after the check up.

You can't tell how great I feel right now. Dolph is deeply asleep. I had to use magic to increase the intensity of the sleep. I don't want him to wake up and find me taking this out. It would break his trust, which I needed so badly. Wow, I couldn't be happier as I rolled up the map back. Very soon, The Shadow Pack will be history...
