CHAPTER TWO
Reyna’s POV
I stood by the door, his phone in my hands and I became lost in thoughts of the vile things I could do to him.
"You cannot allow him go free" My wolf, Hailey's voice was strong and dominant in my head. Her goriness and fierceness could not be ignored.
I thought Franklin was real, I thought he was different but I was just being naive. My eyes became red, the weight of my decision bearing heavily down on me.
“Why would he even go for me? A weak frail wolf who can barely defend herself” I thought as I broke down in tears for a second, wipee my tears before making my next gory decision
I turned around to leave but in that swift moment, Hailey took over and I lost all sense of mortality. Since Franklin wanted to play dirty, well, well game on.
I barged into the room and found out it was not a casual meeting of friends but the alpha of our pack and the important people in the pack were all present there.
I scuffed at them and it was the perfect time to say what was on my mind and get back at Franklin for being a unnecessary vile.
"Everyone!" I said Loudly to make sure all attention was on me, even though my sudden appearance had tilted them up already.
"I am Franklin's mate" I said and their jaws dropped, more like they were not expecting me to say it out loud but little did they know, I was not yet done.
"I, Reyna Stevens, reject you Franklin Hargreaves my fated mate and I cut all ties to you, now and forever" I said dominantly
The look of surprise, hate and anger plastered on each person's face and it gave some kind of weird satisfaction, I walked pass them all slowly thereafter
Even though I knew what I had done was hurtful and reckless to Franklin, it was nothing compared to how he made me feel and in my head, my actions were justifiable or at least Hailey feels that way.
I turned around, filled with a tingling sensation of accomplishments, I made my way home. I had shut my head to any voice of reasoning and just allowed Hailey to take the lead.
I got home and ran upstairs, shutting the door behind me. I wanted to be alone, I wanted everything to just be over but it was far from it. Despite the rejection and shame I know Franklin feels now, it still doesn't give me the joy or peace I so desperately need now.
I was heartbroken and it made me sad.
Some minutes later, I heard a loud knock on the door. I jolted from my bed, where I had drenched myself in tears and went to get the door. Who could it be? That wanted to bring the roof of the house down?
I opened up only to find Franklin's parents by the door.
"How dare you?" Franklin's mum landed a dirty slap on my face before I could even comprehend what was going on or even utter a word.
"You weak,frail, dirty good for nothing wolf. You have the guts to reject my son? A worthless piece of s**t like you" she added again and I opened my mouth to make her understand I was not a toy or plaything for her son but before I could speak up, she had landed another slap on my face. I was sure her hand left a scar on my face.
Franklin's dad quickly held my hands and dragged me out, pulling out a whip. He gave me five lashes in less than twenty seconds. I felt the pain but it was nothing compared to what their son had done to me and I don't regret my actions.
"Take this creep away, she needs to be taught a valuable lesson. One she will not forget in a hurry" two huge men came from behind them and each of them held my hands about to drag me away but what broke my heart even more was when I saw my parents watching helplessly as I was beaten and berated.
Not even a word, or a plea to save me from the Beta's, they just turned blind eyes and deaf eyes to my plight and I shook my head in disgust. “Why was I unfortunate to have such delinquent and irresponsible parents?” I thought and looked at them in shame
They are the reason my life turned out this way and yet they don't see this as the right time to step up and salvage the situation. They stepped aside and allowed the Beta's to carry out their evil desires on me.
My broken heart was shattered by my parents' negligence.
I was dragged and carried away, not that I couldn't fight back but I knew better than to stand against the Beta of our pack. Hailey was ready to take over and storm out of the hold of the men that held me but the way things were going, anything could be expected from Franklin's parents and I couldn't risk losing Hailey.
If I lose her, I automatically lose myself. They would not hesitate to use wolfsbane on Hailey.
They took me to a dungeon, old and deserted. It reeked of dead rats and cockroaches crawling all over the place. I was not moved, I had been in worse situations. They tied my hands and legs to a post in the middle of the dungeon.
"Is this all you have got?” I asked with devilish like smile on my face “you hit like a woman” I added.
"You would apologise this instant or this is nothing compared to what you would feel" Franklin's mum said and I asked her if Franklin deserved my apology after taking me for a fool? Nothing would make me change my mind, I did exactly what was necessary of me."Guys, beat her up" Franklin's dad ordered like an army commander and they hit every part of my body, causing pain and untold suffering to me but I refused to take back my words.
I stood on my ground and told them I would do it over and over again to Franklin because he deserved it.
My words fueled their anger and they hit me even more until I could take it more.
The metallic taste of blood had filled my mouth and my eyes had swollen that I could barely see.
I tried to hold on but my strength failed me but I was never going to apologise. The dungeon suddenly became dark and it lights out.
The dim light that flashed in the dungeon pierced my eyes and I opened it up, each part of my body was in severe pain. My hands felt weak and my legs froze in pain.
But I felt a warm, soft touch. Different from the sizzling pain in my body.
I managed to open my eyes and see what had become of me only to see a man standing before me.
