Chaeyoung purses her lips together, a glaze look in her amber colored eyes.
"Alright" she takes in a slow, steadying breath. "My turn…"
"Like you I was born into my old pack. My father had willingly left his pack to become
an Omega and had met my mother during the full moon transformation. He joined her pack to claim her as his mate and they had me soon after. When I was four my twin sisters were born and our little family was complete.
"In all honesty my childhood was rather normal. I played with the other children was taught to control the wolf inside of me and helped to care for my younger sisters. Everything was pretty normal except for my pack's Alpha."
Mina frown. "What was wrong with your Alpha?"
"He was a tyrant man" Chaeyoung scowls deeply at the memory of her old Alpha. "His name was Hwang Bo-Kyung and he preached pacifism and peace yet did not hesitate to punish those that defied him in the most painful way. He was the epitome of a hypocrite each full moon giving speeches on the beauty of peace and his disgust with all things violent. I once saw him give this very speech then immediately execute one of my pack members for 'reckless behavior towards another.'"
"When I became of age I was appointed the position as one of the two leaders of an enforcer group, a policeman of sorts. considered to be one level below Beta, a Gamma or a Delta of sorts. When I was first appointed this position I felt honored as I was being deemed one of the strongest of our pack but soon after I discovered my new job was entailed with horrible acts.
"Bo-Kyung made me punish many of my fellow pack members for reasons I couldn't even fathom. I've bloodied my knuckles too many times to count and all because he was a cruel piece of shit but even though I didn't agree with everything he did, I couldn't do anything I had no interest in leaving my family behind so I kept my mouth shut and did as I was told.
"That changed though when my mother became his target for punishment..."
Mina's eyes widen as she watch the despair pass over Chaeyoung's expression.
The omega closes her eyes, sucking in a sharp breath, mentally preparing herself for the next part of her story.
"My mother was an amazing woman, the center of our family. She was patient, kind, and the most beautiful female in our pack. She had never done a thing wrong in her life, especially against the pack. But while Bo-Kyung was punishing a small child for roughhousing with the other kids she stood up to him. She told him everything that we all thought, that he was a terrible, ruthless man that did not deserve the position of Alpha.
"Of course he didn't take well to that. He hit my mother too many times till she was bloodied on the ground I couldn't take it anymore. I challenged him for the title of Alpha demanding he leave my mother alone. He accepted my challenge and when the full moon came we fought.
"I... was beaten badly I didn't even stand a chance against him but he didn't kill me. Instead he had other pack members hold me down while he used his claws to slash me up."
Mina held her breath as Chaeyoung stands, rolling up her shirt to reveal the web of scars she had witnessed the night before.
From the front she could see that they were more intense, thicker and longer as if the hand that gave them to Chaeyoung was slow and methodical.
