A Broken mate

" Please, Iam begging you. Allow me to see him. I just need to talk to the alpha." I pleaded with the guards stationed at the entrance of the midnight park.At this time, no more tears escaped my eyes, probably because I had drained my tear glads over the days. " You should leave immediately from here. Your presence alone is an eyesore to the people here.You are a rogue and rogues are not allowed to step foot here." The guard replied in a harsh tone. This was the third day I was standing before them, pleading with them to allow me to see the alpha of their pack, Tobias Reeds. " I really don't have anything to do with the death of Ellie. It's a misunderstanding." I tried to explain myself, but all I received in return was disgusted looks on their faces.  They were disgusted by me. But what did I do? I was being falsely accused of killing, or rather indirectly killing Ellie. Ellie was the lover of Alpha Tobias, my mate and my best friend since highschool days. Yes, Alpha Tobias is my mate. It's been months since I realised that he was my fated one. He felt it too, the bond, but he ruthlessly rejected me despite feeling the bond between us. He said that he was in love with another woman.That the moon goddess made a mistake to make us mates. It's one thing to be rejected by your fated, but it's another to know that he loves someone else. Even the bond wasn't enough to bring him close to me. Few months later, Ellie was found dead deep in the woods. Without any evidence, I was crowned the culprit. I was termed a sinner of a crime I didn't commit. Yes, on that fateful night, we had planned to meet, me and Ellie. She had texted me, telling me that she wanted to see me. She said she had something to tell me about Alpha Toby, my mate. She also said that she had a way to help us become close because she already found her fated one and didn't want to stand between us. Like the fool I was, I made my way to the woods, to the exact point we agreed to meet. But when I arrived at our designated place, I didn't find Ellie waiting for me. She was lying on the ground, dead. She had deep claw marks on her chest, showing that whoever killed her was In a hurry. I crouched down to feel her breath when Tobyand other warriors arrived, branding me as the killer. I saw anger flash in his eyes. As he held Ellie's lifeless body in his arms, crying his heart out, I felt an excruciating pain that I thought I would die. All my attempts to explain myself were futile. He carried her away, like she was a treasure in his kingdom and left me without even sparing me a second glance. Ofcourse, minus the look of disgust he flashed at me. My heart was broken and I struggled to walk back home. When I arrived at the border of my pack, the silvermoon pack, the warriors stopped me from setting foot in their lands again. My father, Alpha Reeves chose to sacrifice me so as to make peace with the midnight pack. I was informed that only one thing could remain. It was either the silvermoon pack or me and it dawned on me what my father chose. He decided to choose the pack over me, his own flesh and blood. With nowhere to go, I could only make my way to the midnight pack, hoping that Toby would listen to my side of the story. It's been three days and he still refuses to see me. Three days of not eating, bathing or even catching some sleep. These were the three worst days of not life. From a princess, I was reduced to a rogue. I was now homeless. Without a pack to call my home, I had nowhere to go. I was also aware that no pack would be willing to take me in. Nobody would want to offend the mighty alpha Tobias Reeds. Not unless they were tired of existing... That meant the only way to survive was to beg Alpha Toby to listen to my side of the story. I was innocent and I would never plead guilty of a crime I didn't commit. " It doesn't matter how long you kneel and beg, the Alpha won't see you. He is still grieving the death of his lover. You might as well land yourself in more trouble" The guard said the words that hurt the most. Those words were more painful than all the three days torture combined. They tore down my heart to shreds. He was mourning the death of Ellie? What about me, his mate who was falsely accused? Who would mourn the pain I have endured the past few days? What did I do to ever deserve this kind of treatment? Was being mated to him really my doom? Why did the moon goddess give me a mate who would hate me? These thoughts passed through my head and I couldn't help but sob silently. The flash of lightning and sound of thunder indicated that I would be in for a long night. Over the past three days, I kneeled at the entrance of the pack, hoping that Alpha Toby would feel my sincerity and see me. But all was in vain. He clearly didn't give a damn whether I died or I'd lived . I bet he would be so happy if I ended up dead. To him, I was nothing but a jealous freak who killed his beloved. I was nothing but a cold blooded murderer The past three days, I have endured harsh weather. The chilling nights accompanied by the heavy rains hit my skin. The blaring sun burned my skin. But all these were nothing compared to the pain in my heart. " Let's just leave, he won't believe us either way." my wolf, scar advised.  I could feel her distress, her pain. "Leave? leave to where? We are basically homeless now. Nobody will take us in." I reminded her and I could feel her whimper. Where could we go? Not unless accepting that we were rogues and joining the other rogues. But life as a rogue was not something I ever imagined. " At Least we won't have to suffer like this." Scar said, reading my mind.
