The innocent reject
Chapter 24

Breaking point

I refused to fall down on his feet

Another slash could be felt from the other side

Making a cross on my back

"..n.....o.....00000...

...just

....Lea..ve..........her...."

I heard Aaron say in his pain filled crooked voice

I looked at him and his eyes held desperation

Desperation for holding me and keeping me safe

I passed him a genuine smile

I don't why I smile when every inch of my body is breaking and aching

Maybe it's because I have gone insane

Or

Because I wanted to assure him that this pain was nothing

I stood my ground

The red eyed man grabbed my jaw in his hand and forced me to look at him breaking my eye contact with Aaron

"I gave you a chance but I guess you want to die along with him....but don't worry i'll make it a quick one "

His hand moved towards my neck and he started throttling it.

"K..ill ... me ......now.....but.....if you decide ...to.....let...me live I promise .....you all will not be ......able to see tomorrows daylight..."

I managed to say with angry eyes staring at his red one.

His red orbs were now burning with anger

He wanted me to plead, to beg him to let me live but what he got from me was a challenge and he didn't like backing down from them.

I could feel my feet lifting from the ground

My hands were holding his grip and I was trying to pull it but my human strength was no match to his.

Slowly and slowly these few seconds felt like hours

My vision got hazy and my lungs were were losing their purpose

My grip on his hand loosened

My arms fell on my side and

My legs stopped struggling

Faint sounds could be heard but I couldn't identify them, my mind was not functioning due to the lack of oxygen.

Just when I thought death will engulf me, his hand left my neck and I fell back on the ground.

Oxygen entered but it was followed by continuous coughs

Black substance covered my hands and everyone looked confused on seeing it

But no one paid much heed to it after the next words which he spoke

"This is no fun!! Why don't we make things interesting?

Guards go and grab those silver chains!!"

The guards bought the silver chains and they tied Aaron and Dan 's hands and legs making it impossible for them to move or shift Groans of pain could be heard from them

If only I could take away their pain and see their smiling faces again.

Next the Red eyed ordered a wolfsbane laden whip and made his way towards them

Jane stood there watching

I wanted to rip her head of for doing all this

She was the main culprit

Everything happened because of her

Feeling my stare on her

Her eyes met mine

Aaron gave everything to her and this is what she did

He made her his queen and she took away his kingdom

He gave her his trust and she kicked it like dust

He gave her friendship and she repaid it by betrayal.

"Jane you made me realise that what people say is right

Never trust anyone other than yourself

How stupid,foolish,naive was I to trust you"

I held myself up and confronted her

I just needed my answers from her

I just wanted to know what wrong Aaron did in these 20 years that she was ready to see a knife go through his heart without feeling any emotion.

I just wanted to know, if her heart was really made of gold or it was just copper coated with goldwater.

"Why Jane !!what couldn't he give you??"

Emotionless face,cold eyes stared at me

She came near me and replied

"How could he be mine Aleka??He always belonged to you !!I loved my mate and right now I am standing by his side supporting him whereas he ..he was a fool to reject you!! He didn't even treated his mate well and you expect me to believe that he would have treated me better!!!

No Aleka no he is not a human he is a bloody bas*** who treated his mate like shi*, he only cares for one thing and that is his power and kingdom!!

I don't regret doing this because I know he deserves this!! He deserves to die the most painful death and I am happy that my mate is doing justice by killing him!!"

I can't believe her!!

I smiled no I laughed loudly

Call it hysteria

But I just can't believe this

"Yes Jane you are right he deserves to die but you know why??

Because he trusted you when he should have banished you along with your mate

Because he thought you were his best friend when you were his worst enemy

Because he gave away his own happiness for someone who only wanted to inflict pain on him

Yes!!! He deserves it because you were not worth it!!!

He deserves it because he never saw this coldness and darkness in these eye which were always shining like stars before!!

"Aleka are you even listening to yourself!! You are defending him!!

Him who rejected you, banished you and left you to die !!

"Yes Jane I am defending him because I saw that goodness in him which you couldn't

And I don't think you will ever see it because you can't see something in 20 seconds which you never saw in 20 years!!"

"Aleka I have known you well and I know you are pure at heart and that's why I wanted to save you, that's why I made you promise to never come back !!"

"You expect me to be true to my promise and keep it for lifetime when you broke yours within a few hours??

Jane you may have known old Aleka but this new Aleka is not that good,

I am sorry but I can't stand betrayal

It was your decision to betray but it's vindication will be mine

And in my verdict you will get what you gave and that is.

Pain"

With this I grabbed the hidden knife from my pocket and placed it in her stomach.

Her eyes held mine for a few seconds but then her body went limp and fell on the ground

"Jaaaaane...!! Jane...!!"

The Red eyed wolf came running towards her and held her in his arms

"Baby...please.....no noooo don't close your eyes....!!.....

His hands were coated in her blood and all his cocky attitude and arrogance was brought down to pleading and sadness

And you know how I felt on seeing this?

Yes

Content

He didn't listened to me when I told him to either kill me then or prepare there coffins afterwards

I proved true to my word

But again who could think that a mere human like me would be their wotst nightmare

No one in their sane mind
