You Rejected Me Alpha, Remember?

   Myra's point of view
 
 
 
   I expected Lucas to show up since the words I left for Neil to get to him, yet it's been over an hour and I haven't seen anybody that looks like him knocked on my door.
 
 
   Why was I even expecting him? I don't want to see him, he is dangerous and a menace to my safety. However, deep inside me, a weak part of me wishes he's not the liar, that everyone else is instead. This is no other than a ploy to sabotage whatever we have going on.
 
 
   My door knocked, and my interest rocketed as I jumped out of the bed to check out who it was. Upon opening my door I was met with the concerned face of Linda.
 
 
   I was disappointed, but masked the expression and opened my door wider for her presence. I don't know when last we saw each other, but her face sure looks so scarce.
 
 
   We were together throughout yesterday, I spared her after the training I didn't return for today. What I went through in the little space of then till now has my brain box jumbled.
 
 
   "Your Highness, I'm so glad you're alright. I heard you got hospitalized, but when I got to the infirmary you weren't there, and there I learnt you've been discharged. I'm sorry I'm just checking up on you now, I hope you're truly fine. Here I brought you a cake personally baked by me, it's my favorite recipe." She stretched the mini cakebox for me to collect as she walked inside.
 
 
   "Thanks," I said while I took the box and closed my door.
 
 
   "So what happened? You looked fine before I left you yesterday, what went wrong and how did you end up in the hospital for the night?" She quizzed as she walked over to sit down on my bed.
 
 
   "It's crazy, and it was Lisa," I answered and took my seat beside her, leaving a small space between us to place the box of cake she brought with her.
 
 
   I opened the box and the rich scent of red velvet filled the air. I've baked a lot of cakes back in my home pack, but have never ate one genuinely. All I do is taste, and crave some portions.
 
 
   And now, now I'm privileged to sit down and have this. It's a thing I'm proud of.
 
 
   "Lisa?"
 
 
   "Yeah." I nodded. Fortunately, there was a table knife inside the box and beside the cake, so cutting myself and her a piece wasn't a problem. I offered her the piece I cut for her, and she took it with a smile before she landed a bite.
 
 
   I also took a bite from my own piece and moaned out loud at how good this tasted, "Wow," I gasped in between ingestions. "You sure you made this? This is good as fuck," I added, taking yet another bite.
 
 
   "Baking is one of my favorite thing I do, I bake all the desserts you see out there for dinner. It's my hobby. But that's not the topic here, what do you mean Lisa had a thing to do with you getting hospitalized?"
 
 
   I didn't know if I should tell her everything. I mean she's been nice and there for me ever since I stepped my foot inside this palace, she's like that friend I never got a had, and our relationship was more than maid-to-boss relationship.
 
 
   Wait I remember the warning she gave me last time, she'd warned me not to test my mate so to avoid ending up like 'Others'. She never told me who those others were, and what became of their fate.
 
 
   "There's a lot to say and share Linda, but I don't know if I can trust you?" I told her my mind. She's scared of the Alpha King, so gossiping over him might outed me in away I don't want to be outed.
 
 
   "What do you mean by that?" Her brows nudged to confusion.
 
 
   "Remember this night you came to get me for my mate?" I gave her space to catch up, and continued when it seemed like she has. "That night you spared me a warning, said in all I do I should refrain from testing my mate, that the outcome is not always good. You said you don't want me to end up like the others. I really want to trust you Linda, but before I can do that, you need to tell me about those others. Who are they? And why should I be scared of ending up like them?"
 
 
   She sighed as her face went solemn, she also dropped the remaining of the cake I cut for her back into the box to further express her cheerlessness.
 
 
   "I need to tell you something. The Alpha King's name is not Lucas, his name is Lucius," she said.
 
 
   Logan too said the same thing, he'd told me then to ask my mate who Lucius was since I trust him so much. But the main question is why does my mate has a false identity?
 
 
   "I was born in this palace, and I grew up here. The things I'll tell you today are not to be discussed or it could means our possible demise. And I'm doing this not because I want you to trust me, but because I like you and I think you deserve a fair chance." There was an eeriness to her words, an odd feeling that gets me like I'm on a cliff with one step away from going over.
 
 
   "Lucas is Maddy's twin brother, Lucius's younger brother. The Alpha King killed him and assumed his identity so he could become the king. He's not who you think he is, he indeed murdered his whole family to get to where he was right now. He's a cruel monster you shouldn't affiliate yourself with in any given circumstance."
 
 
   I'm doomed!
 
 
   This is more than an affiliation between me and Lucas. He's my goddamn mate, we're involved with each other.
 
 
   "What do you think he wants with me?" I'm scared and I couldn't mask my fears, my eyes were becoming teary even.
 
 
   All I have is an assumption, that he wishes to use me as a sacrifice for whatever he plans to achieve during the Blue Moon.
 
 
   "I can't say for sure, but whatever it is, I can assure you that it's bad news. You're an omega, you guys are bad news." She sighed, and took my palms into hers. "You might be a bad news, but that still doesn't mean you don't deserve to live. Your past is always written on your face, even though most times you try to hide it. It's always evident, and so obvious. One glance at you, and I can tell how bad it has been for you. Plus it wouldn't take a genius to figure out that it was related to you being an omega, and you don't deserve that, heck nobody does. You guys deserve a chance at a healthy life, you guys are not weapons."
 
 
   Tears stumbled down my cheeks and I couldn't stop it. I didn't mean to get emotional, I didn't. But I could not help it.
 
 
   I deserve a fair chance at life, I deserve to be happy, I deserve to be at peace. What I don't deserve is my parent taken away from me at a young age, what I don't deserve is me being a target at a young age, or becoming a slave at a young age, going through stages worse than grief at a young age. I don't deserve that. I deserve to be at peace like everyone else, I deserve happiness.
 
 
   What would I give to be happy? To be at peace? Everyday I would cry then to the moon goddess to change the course of my life, it changes and I thought it was for the best, the better, not knowing it's for the absolute worse.
 
 
   I pick my life back at Crystal Moon over what it is that is to happen to me here.
 
 
   "Here." She pushed the cake box aside so she could shift super close and pulled me in for a hug, just what I needed. A genuine hug filled with warmth.
 
 
   I cried heavily into her arms, and she patted my back to comfort me. I cried because this is going to be my last cry.
 
 
   No more tears, Myra. No more tears.
