Chapter Forty Six
“What do you mean?” | cried out.
“Slade is not just his father; he is the Alpha King, Thane had just done the forbidden, all for you. He would have
to suffer the consequences.”
My breath cout fast. | shouldn't have stepped in. Why did | always make matters worse?
“Riley,” Freya called, and | looked at her with teary eyes. “Thank you,” she said, and for a moment her features
softened. “But sometimes doing the right thing is not always right. Being naive would only bring you to an end.”
“I couldn't just close my ears to that: what kind of person would that make me?”
“A person that survives and stays alive. Do you think a few others hadn't at spoint witnessed my
punishment?” She questioned me, and | had no answer to that. If she had people who really loved her, then why
did they do nothing? How could they allow this? But again, | had to remind myself that Thane never did step in.
“I'm sorry, I...” | sobbed silently. | had made a very big mistake, and | knew it. | didn’t miss the fact that Axel
hadn't stared atonce when he walked in.
| tried to move, but my whole body ached, remindingof the bruise Slade had left on my skin with the whip.
“Don’t worry, it would heal; give it a few days-or, considering you are an omega, a few weeks,” she says, and |
nod, not really caring about the scar. | stood with seffort, picking up the bed spread, and | wrapped it over
the Luna Queen.
“Freya, why haven't you left him? He treats you like crap; he had been the one at fault bk at the feast, and yet
he punished you for a thing so petty; why haven't you attempted running away? You are the Luna Queen; you
have sconnections; you could disappear.”
“Disappear,” she says, chuckling. “There's nowhere in this world where Slade would not find me. Sometimes, |
hope he could change; | hope he could wake up and beca whole different person, and I still hope.”
“He is never going to change; not till he kills you” | say, wondering why I still felt the need to help this
woman. Maybe it was the sympathy | felt for her.

“If | escape, | will live my life on a run, afraid of everything and nothing, always having to check my back. That's
not a life-at least not one | will ever want to live,” she says.
“You could...”
“No, Riley, enough!” she says, and | didn’t miss the fact that she calledby my name. “You have no idea the
responsibility before me; we are nothing alike, but soon you will grow to find out. You don’t choose your own fate,
nor can you escape it. You have a good heart, which my son Thane does not deserve. Don't fall in love with
Thane; this way you won't be left broken,

She calls to me.
| shook my head, backing away. | would never be able to close my eyes to any form of cruelty.
“Do you understand me?” She calls, her voice a bit higher.
“I will not be like you; | will not beclike any of you.”

guess you believe in the saying that a single drop can make a difference even in an ocean. They lied. You will
die; that’s the only difference you will make,” she said, her
eyes cold.
“I'm only trying to help you; why do you always have to be this cold uncaring person?”
“I don’t need your help, little Omega; | never have and never will. Better save your strength,” she said, her eyes
staring at the white wall.
“I'll remember that next time.”
Just then, Axel and Thane returned.
Axel pickedup, still avoiding my eyes as he carriedaway, but Thane remained with Freya.
“I'm sorry,” | said to Axel when we finally entered my room. But he gave no response, and that worriedmore
than anything Freya had said. “I didn’t mean to cause any of this; please believe me, | just couldn't stand her
being hurt, and | wish | could walk by and do nothing.”
Axel finally stared at me. “And how did she react to your little intrusion?” Axel questioned

Axel was silent; he didn’t want to answer that question.
