Chapter 1 Dead And Woken Up

• Chapter 1 - Dead and woken up
• [Libianca’s pov]
• My brows furrowed when I felt the bright and slanting sun rays on my eyelids. Immediately irritated by the unpleasant sensation, opening my eyes I found myself in a strange room.
• Frowning and panicking because I was unable to recognize my surroundings. The room was too luxurious to be my shabby little place. Having no clue where I was at the moment, questions bombarded my head.
• I tried to sit up but exhaustion clouded me along with the soreness in-between my legs. Soon everything came crashing in my head, the memories from last night that turned my gloomy face into a bright smile.
• Last night I found my fated mate and he accepted me despite my lowly status as an Omega. I felt his love for me and willingly gave myself to him. It was like a dream I didn't want to wake up from. My eyes sparked in excitement as I rose from the bed ignoring the protest from my wobbly legs.
• Not wasting any time, immediately wore my clothes from the previous night. I could not wait to meet him so that we could talk about our official marking ceremony. "I wonder where he went," I mumbled curiously.
• My mood turned sour when I couldn't find him anywhere in the room. I could hear an incoherent chatter coming from outside the room. "Maybe he is outside."I pouted, disappointed my mate didn't wait for me to wake up.
• “I hope he doesn’t hate me,” I murmured to myself but immediately shook off that dreadful thought. “My mate is an angel, he would never do that. right?” Feeling giddy, I left the room almost hopping, feeling like a teenager who just got a love confession.
• I got out of the room and walked down the hallway to the sitting room. Then the incoherent chatter got clear, a familiar female voice, she was flirting with my mate.
• I experienced a surge of conflicting emotions, prompting me to dash down the hallway to the living room. There, I was greeted by a sight that initially seemed unbelievable but it was right in front of me.
• My best friend, Nyx was cradled in her mate's embrace and they were making out so passionately like nothing mattered in the world. His idle hand was sneaking underneath her blouse to cup her plump breasts.
• “What the hell is happening here, Maddox?” I screamed at the top of my lungs. Due to my loud voice, they were both brought out of their world. Nyx only sneered at me before continuing to kiss Maddox in front of me.
• "Honey, when are you going to take out the trash? It stinks in here." Nyx flirted at Maddox biting her lips seductively as her hands traced his chiselled chest. The traitor Maddox was enjoying her act, I could see his bulge under his trousers as proof of his arousal.
• I clenched my fist hearing her provoking words."Stay away from my mate, you witch." I barked at Nyx huffing, she was probably stunned by my unnatural tone. I saw the confusion in her eyes but she quickly recovered from the shock. Her eyes were filled with rage and disgust. She lifted her hand and slapped me across my face.
• "How dare you touch me, you dirty dog?!" She spat at me. I was stunned when I felt the stinging sensation on my cheek. "Maddox just look at how pathetic she is. She thinks a worthless trash like her can be your mate."Nyx sneered at me.
• I turned to look at Maddox hoping he would do something but I was just delusional. His eyes held the same disgust as Nyx's eyes when our eyes met. "I hope your hands don't hurt." He told Nyx with affection evident in his eyes then showered her with soft kisses. It was unbelievable he was the same man from last night who showed me love.
• "I am fine, my alpha. I am a beta so things like this don't hurt me, unlike some people." Nyx replied. Her hands caressed Maddox's charming face. I knew the one she was referring to was me, a weak Wolfless omega but why would she do this to me? She was my best friend.
• 'No. No!'I kept on repeating in my head. This can't be the Nyx I knew as my best friend. It was impossible.
• "Why are you doing this to me?" I cried, my teeth were gritting in anger. "Who do you think you are to question me, Libianca? Were you delusional that someone like you could be Maddox's mate?" She scoffed approaching me with steady steps.
• She quickly grabbed my face and stared intently at me. Her long nails were piercing through my skin. "Please, stop it." I whimpered but Nyx didn't listen. Her nails continued to pierce through my
• skin until it bled.
• "The best you can be is a sex slave and nothing more. " She declared then leaned close to my ears and whispered. "Libianca, if you know what is good for you and your mother, never appear in front of me. If you do, I will make sure your lives will be a living hell." Her voice threatened.
• Filled with fury, I pushed Nyx away and slapped her so hard she stumbled on the floor. Maddox rushed to her aid to help her off the floor. "Maddox, I hate you and I regret being your mate!" I screamed.
• Envy filled my heart, wishing I was the one in Maddox's arms, the one he was treating so tenderly it made my heart squeeze. There was a stark contrast between the way he treated me and her, distracted by my personal feelings I didn't realize it when Nyx stood up
• "I hope you go to hell, Libianca!" Nyx suddenly screamed at me. She quickly grabbed a pocket knife that was hidden on Maddox to attack me with it. Everything happened so fast that I didn't see it coming.
• I was able to miraculously evade her despite our difference in strength. In a swift motion, I grabbed the pocket knife from her. We got into a struggle when Nyx could not take the knife from my hand and I accidentally stabbed her in self-defence.
• Nyx was stunned when the knife pierced her stomach. Her eyes looked down at the bleeding spot in horror. Her blood was dripping on the pristine white floor forming a small pool. Her eyes filled with dread as she collapsed on the floor.
• Maddox realised what had happened and rushed towards his chosen mate. ‘Someone should get a healer here immediately!' Maddox boomed via the pack mind link to every pack member close by.
• That was when I realised how dire the situation was. The blade I stabbed Nyx with was Maddox's pocket knife which was made of silver and was very poisonous to werewolves.
• I started walking backwards, stunned by my bloody hand, quickly ran to cover my face with my hands and burst into another round of tears while escaping to the elevator. Maddox then sent another command via the pack mind link to capture me. It officially made me a fugitive.
• I could not help but laugh at myself how I just lost my virginity to a jerk like Maddox. He was just like the rest who always mocked me for being a weak Omega, The elevator dinged open, and I immediately wiped my tears and ran out of the building. It was raining heavily outside as if the moon goddess was on my side. At least the rain would mask my scent. I don't know how long I ran but my legs continued moving due to the adrenaline rush.
• After running what seemed like forever I got to a silent alley where I sat down because of exhaustion allowing the rain to continue pouring on me. A loud howl echoed from a close distance. They were close, how did they find me so soon under the rain?
• My legs were cramped and couldn't move again that was when I finally gave up and fell. I tried crawling but it was useless. Soon I was surrounded by large wolves circling me. The last thing I remembered was Maddox's large silver wolf staring at me and everything turned black.
• I heard the crackling flames close to me and slowly opened my eyes only to discover I was chained to a pole with silver chains that were burning into my skin in front of a large burn fire.
• This was the pack square, where general meetings were held. They were all staring at me like a heinous criminal, judging like it always had been from the day it was discovered I was worthless.
• Maddox climbed up the podium.
• "We are all here to witness the punishment of a criminal amongst us." Maddox's voice boomed. He made his one-sided account of what I had done and like that, my sentence was given without hearing my side of the story. Luckily Nyx had survived but was comatose so I couldn't be killed but instead sentenced to 100 whips using a silver whip covered with wolfsbane.
• Who was he kidding I would die from that because of my poor healing abilities, and I broke into a sadistic laugh accepting my fate. A loud cry broke out, it was my mother who was also present. I guess she realized my impending death.
• "But before that, I have an announcement...." his voice boomed again silencing everyone except my crying mother. "I Maddox silver alpha of the silver moon pack rejects Libianca Dolce as my mate." He declared making the crowd burst into confusion and surprise.
• I guess none of them expected the alpha to kill his fated mate. "I won't accept your rejection." I managed to spit at him glaring furiously while gritting my teeth because of the pain that filled my body from the silver binds. I was not going to reject him, he must suffer the pain of my death due to our incomplete mate bond.
• Maddox saw my determination to make him suffer and accepted my choice. He was a strong alpha so he could endure the death of an omega mate. "So be it, start the punishment." He then declared.
• The executioner climbed the podium and started whipping me. Each strike tore through my flesh and my mother cried louder. I tried to stay awake because of my crying mother, I was all she had in this life but a simple wish was not enough to keep them open.
• I lost count of the whip, my body had grown numb to the pain caused by the wounds infected with silver and wolfsbane as all other senses dull. ' is this the feeling of death,' I asked myself.
• It felt like I had been thrown into a cold dark pit I could not climb out of as everything grew dark, those were my last moments. When my dreadful life as the Wolfless omega of the silver moon ended.
• At least that was what I thought but why I did suddenly open my eyes in a strange room and there was a strange boy with a strange accent holding my hands and crying? He was saying strange things like I was heartless for leaving him alone in this world and calling my sister.
• I wanted to ask him who he was but instead coughed out a mouthful of blood. The boy's eyes shot out excited when he heard me cough. "Zina you are still alive!!" He shrieked seeing my weakly open eyes. He rushed to hug me. "I
• knew my sister wouldn't leave me alone in this world. I knew you would not die so easily." He started shedding ears hugging me tightly.
