Destined To A Rejected One
Chapter 17

THE KILLER IS NOW A FUGITIVE

Twelve moons later

What is it, Guila? – Bloodstain’s soft, lifeless voice squeezes Guila’s heart once more.

Guila holds a toothbrush in her hands to clean her teeth, its material a chicken bone, at the end of the bone are stuck pig hairs.

It is for you to grind this powder and rub it on your teeth with the brush,” she explains, holding out the brush to the youngest girl.

The powder inside the small clay pot in Guila’s hand is made of chalk and salt.

Bloodstain takes the brush and does as Guila has instructed. During those five years, the girl has grown into a woman. Her long black hair has grown to below her buttocks, her nose is upturned, her eyes are beautiful and large, but lifeless blue. Her pink mouth, small and fleshy in the shape of a heart, adorned her thin, delicate face, but the melancholy was evident.

After the first punishment, Bloodstain was left speechless for three years, and this was the reason for further punishments, each worse than the next. His body now, in addition to the red birthmarks on his back, has several scars, the whips used by the genuine alpha were coated with silver, the skin stopped bleeding, but the scars remained, as if it were human skin.

Guila tried to do all she could to cheer the girl up even a little, she even risked asking the genuine lunam for a piece of meat, which according to Guila, it was by a miracle of the goddess that the genuine one granted her the permission to keep some when it was the omegas turn to eat, Guila fulfilled all her part, that day Bloodstain was punished, because the genuine one questioned her and she didn’t answer. When they were all released, she went to the girl’s den, but the girl wouldn’t even smell the food and continued to lie on the ground in her lupine form.

Now gargle with this water.

Guila hands Bloodstain a glass full of water, at the bottom of the glass were mint leaves. The young woman takes the glass and gargles, then spits into another empty glass.

The genuine alpha ordered her to use it.

Guila pulls out from inside a basket a dress, very different from what the young woman is used to wearing. This one is all dainty, white in colour, her bust was lace, the length reached down to her feet. Without any emotion, she takes off the worn and torn dress, no longer a defined colour of her body, being completely naked, without any shame. No matter how much time passes, Guila will never get used to Bloodstain’s malnourished physique. The cimex moon helps the younger girl get dressed. The dress fits her slender body perfectly.

Dearest… – Guila starts to speak but can’t replace words.

Since the first beating, Bloodstain no longer seems to belong to that world. She only lives silently inside herself. Conversations hardly exist anymore, Guila doesn’t even know if she still believes in the moon goddess. Without words, she just pulls the girl by the shoulders and hugs her, tightly, like a farewell. And then it happens, she feels Bloodstain’s warm tears on her shoulder.

Oh, my child – Guila cries too and caresses the young girl’s back tenderly.

Today is the big day, the competitions have been going on for a week now, and for exactly one week the bloodstain has been bleeding. This was another unusual fact, lycanthropic females only bleed when they are in their fertile season, and the only female that bleeds more than once is the velut luna. This fact added to the genuine alpha’s theories. For him, the Bloodstain’s body functions just like that of a cimex luna when it leaves the herd and lives on its own.

The b***d is to attract the attention of the male. Her male. But no one there was her mate, so why was she bleeding? Simple, the goddess is proving once again, that she and she alone makes the rules, too bad no one understands that this is one more sign that Bloodstain did have a mate, and that they were very close to meeting.

I… I don’t want to… Guila… I… It hurts… – For the first time in years, Guila witnesses the bloodstain open up again.

You…. You won’t…

How? I can’t do it… I feel broken, in little pieces…

Pay attention, I heard that in the neighbouring country is the hunter of our race, I know it’s a dangerous place, but only there you won’t be hunted by these monsters here, go to Russia, to the city of Murmansk, that’s where their base is, go to the village, dress up as a human. And live a happy life! – he whispers in Bloodstain’s ear.

But, Guila… How are we going to leave?

Pay attention, Brunno and I are going to give you a chance to get out of here.

I can’t go without you, Guila.

I’m old now, my dear, I couldn’t bear to run away. My body is tired already. And I don’t want to die regretting anything.

But…

Enough of this, it’s time for you to be happy, and may the goddess be with you forever and ever,” Guila whispers softly to Bloodstain, who squeezes her even tighter in his arms.

All the other wolves are in front of the castle, today it will be decided who will be the progenitor of the heir to the true alpha. The finalists are: Rolfe from the Rising pack and Apolonis from the Merak pack.

At first, Apolonis would not participate, it was his son Apollo who would contest, however, two years ago, he had his heir murdered by the traitor of his kind. Occisor Van Helsing.

Rolfe was confident, this is the chance he wanted so badly to restore honour to his pack, he wouldn’t throw it away for anything. But the goddess is in charge.

Come – the third beta of the genuine alpha catches the attention of the embracing females.

Get ready – Guila just moved her lips blowing in Bloodstain’s ear.

Walking with her head down, Guila hides a silver dagger she stole from the genuine alpha’s torture room. As he passes the beta, in a swift movement that catches him by surprise, he plunges the dagger fully into the beta’s neck, who stares at him wide-eyed.

Run, now! – he directs, shouting.

Bloodstain’s eyes fill with tears that soon fall like waterfalls. His whole body trembles. The beta grabs Guila by the shoulders and walks with her until she collides with the back of the wall, Guila digs her fingers into the beta’s eyes, who howls in pain.

Now! – she orders once more in desperation.

Bloodstain with her heart broken in half obeys the order, runs out of her lair and up the stairs, when she reaches the ground floor, the slave area, Brunno is waiting for her with a small bag in his hands.

Come, this way.

Bloodstain followed him, there was a secret passage leading to the back of the castles. It was already night, the moon, once again full, witnessed it all.

Transform and run as fast as you can.

Thank you very, very much,” she said, crying.

Bloodstain hugs Brunno tightly, he knows this will be the last time he sees him. So will his beloved Guila. “Why does fate have to be so cruel to me?” – Bloodstain wonders in thought. The pain of loss breaks his chest even more.

Be happy, miss,” wishes Brunno with moist eyes.

Though the young woman has had no training, both he and his companion know she will survive – after all, she has dominant b***d in her veins, not submissive. The goddess will be at his side, he was sure.

Bloodstain transformed, his she-wolf was no longer a pup. The great white she-wolf with red axes on her back was nearly ten feet tall. Her dark blue eyes were like a starless night.

The omega slips the strap of the small pouch containing some gold coins around the neck of the Bloodstain she-wolf.

Brunno stands still watching as the Bloodstain moves further and further away in her lupine form. “At last this child will be happy, thank you my goddess” – he thanked her thoughtfully. He knew the fate that awaited him and his mate. But they were both happy, all the suffering would finally come to an end. Brunno looked up at the sky, the smile was on his face. A few minutes after losing sight of the young woman, the pain of loss anticipates him, Guila is no more.

“Soon I will replace her, my love” – he thinks and sees how all the wolves that were in the castle surround him and growl at him.

Where has she gone? Filthy omega! – asks the genuine alpha with hatred.

I’m not going to say… AAah

Brunno falls face first onto the snowy ground, the genuine begins to exude his dominance over the omega who was being crushed from within.

I hope you never replace her, you are shits! May the goddess destroy you all! – he speaks firmly even though b***d is coming out of his mouth.

Kill him – orders the true alpha and all the lycanthropes transform and go towards Brunno.

Brunno was torn apart, his limbs ripped off and his head trampled beyond recognition. Guila was also already dead, the third beta ripped out her heart and crushed it. But, their spirits were at peace, they returned to the great moon goddess.

A fierce storm began out of nowhere, erasing Bloodstain’s footprints in the snow.

Go straight for her! – shouts the genuine one, transforming himself as well.

But it’s too late, Bloodstain is almost at the border of the Russian country.

“Please, goddess, guide my steps” – asked the goddess in her thoughts as soon as she saw the sign with the name of Murmansk.
