I was awoken by loud noises. It's so early in the morning why so much noise?

My cage flung open and three soldiers match in with other soldiers outside.

What is going on here ? I'm totally flabbergasted by this scenery.

"Where are you taking her too?"scarlett asked as they grab me abruptly.

"Let go off me!"

"What's your business ?!",one of the soldiers outside use his whip on her , irritated because I started to make struggle.

Her scream echoed in the room.

"Scarlett!-" ,I turn back to look at her worried,she stopped screaming but she whined in pain. My gaze turn back to them,I was livid.

"Why did you have to hurt her like that?!I deserve to know where your taking me to it's part of my rights".

I continue to make a struggle as they try to carry me out of my cage.

"Look at her acting like a princess "
one says and the others laugh.

For a minute I forgot I was a rogue here and ofcourse things work differently here, they probably don't know what werewolf rights are.

"Take her to the segregation room."I recognize the voice who gave the order ,I look up and it was him.

"Yes alpha",they all chorus with a salute.

"No no,no please not segregation room, take my life instead please forgive her " Scarlett cries out.

"Take back those words", I shout at her infuriated.

How could she say that? why would she put her life on the pedestal for me?

"Please Rainha"she cries out ,everyone stood there shocked ,I too couldn't believe it,what's going on?

"I put two and two together and I know your someone so dear to the alpha ,if you die during segregation, he'll be very angry and never forgive himself,this nation would suffer greatly." She mindlinks.

"I would come out from there alive",I reassure her.

Claudia didn't call me nine lives princess for nothing.i knew she had tried to terminate me so many times and those so many times she failed.

Scarlett continues to cry and plead.

"Take her away I don't have time for this.",the alpha commands,his face showed irritation.

They grab me away from my cage.

"Stay alive scarlett we'll meet outside",I tell her.

I look up at him for the last time as I'm dragged away from the prison. I felt somewhat betrayed ,I didn't expect him to care but you couldn't even give your worst enemy segregation that was slow painful torture.

I wasn't even just anybody I am his mate ,how could he do this to me when he would be hurt too?

Most females died during segregation, hopefully I don't add to the statistics.

It was a common punishment at home  not until I begged dad to abolish the punishment. It was such a cruel punishment , now here I am going through it.

I was carried to the segregation room, pack members stared as I was going. I look tattered this has to be one of the most embarrassing walk of shame I've ever had to do.

I was pushed into the segregation room and locked up .

It was so cold.

The agonizing pain started, I felt different kind pains all at once ,this had to be what hell feels like .

During segregation you were separated from other wolves, there was no wolf for you help keep your wolf energy active.

The scent of silver nitrate  filled the room ,the scent that wolves hated the most. It  weakened our energy.

Segregation was one punishment that went beyond the body but hurt the wolf as much. That is why it is one of the worst punishment to give any werewolf.

My wolf whimpered out in pain.

"I'm sorry girl,things don't always go as we expect but we have to survive regardless"

I really needed to survive this one ,not only for myself but also for scarlett.
She was ready to put down her life for me and for her pack.

Her patriotism is on another level. How could she be so devoted to a pack that failed her already. Some people are too good to be true,this world doesn't deserve them.

"Hold on scarlett,I'm holding on for you too"

I hope I can do this for you.

                                🌑

The look she gave me kept playing over and over in my mind. That look of betrayal.

She might never forgive me for this but that's okay.sometimes decisions have to made whether we like it or not.

The knock on the door interrupts my thoughts,

"Come in"

"Brother-",charlotte enters the room.

"What's wrong?"she asks immediately. She always noticed when my mood was off. Others might turn a blind eye but never her.

"Don't worry sweets im fine",I fake a smile ,sorry but this time I can't share this burden with you. You would hate me if you knew. I knew she was hopeless romantic and would be so angry that I did such a thing to the mate the goddess gave me.

"You know better than to hide things from me right?"

"It's really nothing charlotte"

"I hope it's nothing like you say although your evidently perturbed. you called for me?- "

"Prepare a room on our floor ,we might be having a guest"

" A guest huh,I hope it's not one of your obnoxious guests. I'm not having it this time. Wait our floor??,you don't have guests on the topmost floor",she gave me a questioning look.

"Just do as I say okay, would you?"

"Okayyy don't give me an attitude."

"Sorry my bad"

" cheer up please. Whatever is bothering you will be fine sooner or later"

"Thank you".

"Welcome,I won't be having lunch with you. I'll be going to see my coach and his family, he broke a leg"

"Send my condolences, I would see him another time"

"Sure I will,with your permission i will be leaving,I'll be off  to organize the arrangement of the room now"

"Strength to your hands,See you soon".

"See you soon ",she replies blowing a kiss at me,Oh charlotte,I hope your right about this one .I hope everything would be fine.

Sometimes I could not help but envy Charlotte,so optimistic. Being happy all the time,I wish I could be able to happy without being so worried all the time.

I wish I too could be able to be  a normal wolf for once ,the role of being an  alpha has started to take a toll on me but again this is why I was born,  to rule the people,to guide the people.

I cast my mind back on my mate.
I didn't even know her name. I knew nothing about her, so there is really nothing to loose if she dies, right ?

I have other things to worry about. The two recent attacks have been a threat  to the safety of this pack.

The people are scared. Is another war likely to happen? Another war during my reign?
