The Assassin's Alpha Mate

2. Lessons and punishments

*Rae's POV*

As I started walking through the big metal gates, I heard the school bell ring. "Oh fudge, now I have to sneak into class". I probably could have skipped school because I graduated when I was 12 but I have to do the packs homework and therefore have to know what they learnt.

I ran up the steps and saw Jen kissing yet another poor boys face off. I wouldn't even call it kissing, more like attacking. But anyway, what did I tell you, she's a slut.
I carried on walking down the hall, ignoring the making-out session going on against the lockers, and thought "If I'm already late why make an effort." My mind just didn't quite consider the punishment afterwards. My time table said:

1. Calculus
2. English
Break
3. Geography
4. Gym
Lunch
5. Language
6. Free period

Pretty good day if you ask me! Only issue, Matt my brother was in most of them.
I has just got to the classroom for Calculus about 15mins late and quietly opened the door. Luckily the teacher's back was facing the white board so I sneaked around him while everyone else in the class was either playing on their phones or giving me dirty looks.
Just as I was sitting down in my chair the teacher said
"Miss Moon, care telling me and the class why you find it amusing to come to class 15mins late?"
Oh sorry sir, I was just recovering from my last beating but of course I couldn't say that. Instead it was a "No sir, sorry sir." Damn teachers, they always catch you at the wrong time.
"Right then shall we carry on without anymore interruptions"
The lesson passed quite quickly, not counting the numerous balls of scrunched up paper thrown at me.
*Bring*

"Finally, the bell!" I thought and rushed out of the room to avoid any more issues. English, break and Geography flew by and I've only managed to get two beatings so far. But I was dreading gym as because of me being the omega the pack wouldn't let me train so I was horribly out of shape.
Just as I was heading to the girls changing room to grab my sports clothes I bumped into Matt.
"Watch where your going b*tch! Why don't you do us all a favour and just jump off a cliff maybe?! By the way, it's the soon-to-be-alpha's birthday tomorrow so go home and start making the best feast you have ever made in your life or we'll go play with the silver."
"Yes Matt" I replied through tears.
^I can't believe my brother really wants me dead Luna^
^its alright, why don't we go home and make this dinner and then I'll sing you a song^
^ok^ I sniffed and ran home all the way.

When I got home I grabbed the brush and mop and cleaned all of the rooms, top to bottom. Then I went downstairs and started baking for tomorrow night. I had just put the five tiered cake in the oven when I realised that I had to go out hunting for tonight. Oh dear, I'm so tired!
^Just let me take over Rae and I'll do the hunting while you sleep^
^ok, thank you Luna^
and with that I blacked out.

~2 hours later~

Why do my wrists hurt so much? I slowly peeled back my eyes and realised I was in the pack dungeon. My ankles and wrists were covered in thick silver chains attached to the floor and were already burning my skin. It was stone everywhere and the bars at the front of the cell were pure silver too making it impossible to escape. I was lying on the cold hard floor at an odd angle. Just as I heard someone coming down the steps to underground I quickly closed my eyes again, better to make them think you're asleep, maybe they will come back later.
"We know you're awake slave! Oh well, it'll just make your screams even nicer to hear."
Clearly I was wrong then.

I started to hear the screeching sound of sharpening knives. I bet they are silver as well! The footsteps gradually got closer until they were right in front of me. Out of nowhere a long gash was made in my arm. I screamed so loud it must have blown the roof off. Agony started rushing throughout my body and I felt myself getting weaker by the second.
Still dizzy from the silver, I heard a voice say "we are only just getting started".

Next I felt a burning pain in my lower leg, it felt like my whole body was on fire and I could do nothing to stop it. I shot my eyes open and looked down, my brother had stuck another knife in my leg. I started feeling very sleepy but then a new wave of pain came, shocking my body awake. He twisted the knife in a full circle creating a deep gash that wouldn't heel because of the silver. Matt started laughing at my pain and then walked away to get another weapon of torture.
"This is what happens when your late and then go out for a run little sister"

"Please no more! I won't do it ever ag-" I started when a sharp strike suddenly hit my back.
It felt like a million tiny fire ants over and over again. The pointy tip on the end of the whip left cuts all over my back. Blood trickled down my back slowly mixing with tears. Each hit made me cry and scream even louder than the last one. The blood was now gushing out and making a puddle on the floor. All Matt did was laugh even harder.
"This is how a murderer should be treated, I bet mum and dad are looking down in disgust at you right now. You can't even take a punishment like an adult".

"P-please stop...I'm b-begging you!" I said in between sobs and screams but all he did was lash even harder. I realised that I couldn't take it any more and started to black out for the second time that day.
Soon I was surrounded by darkness. Why did everyone hate me so much was my last thought?

Hiya again, this chapter wasn't as good as the first because I sort of ran out of ideas.
Any ways, bye ❤️
