The Alpha Kings Hated Omega

Demi's pov

                       The whip cracked against my bare back, an excruciating pain cascaded through me.

I pressed my lips close forcing back the agonizing whimper from the burning sensation on my palms and knees.

The heat from the hot coals I was atop burned my skin as Nina repeatedly brought the whip down on me, bruising my back greater than it was already.

I couldn't cry out for help nor could I show any sign of pain as it would increase my punishment and you might wonder what punishment could be worse than this.

A punishment worse than this would be seeing my baby brother in this exact position as I am because I defied their orders.

And currently I could hear his cries as he screamed, rolling on the ground in attempts to get to me but he was being held back by the guards who were busy laughing at his misery.

Demi, I am sorry, He mindlinked me and I looked up to make eye contact with him. A tear slid from my eye down my cheek as I could see the regret in his eyes as brown as mine, I would never eat again.

It's not your fault Haris, I comforted him and just then the whip landed on my back again and I bit my lip muffling the scream that threatened to come out, you were just hungry, it's not your fault.

"Tell him to stop yelling!" Nina barked at me as she circled me and I knew she was giving me a look of appraisal marveling at the artwork of wounds she had inflicted as this was her favorite pastime , "That fat pig ate my pet's food and he has the nerve to cry!"

A tear slipped down my cheek again as the hotness of the coals met my skin producing a hissing sound as the embers kissed my skin.

It wasn't bread, meat or crackers.

My brother was so hungry that he ate food from a dog's bowl and I was being punished for it. I felt like a failure and the only thing I wanted was to die at the moment.

I could not protect him nor fend for him, I could only feed him with scraps of what was given to me after slaving in the kitchen. He was so weak that his wolf hadn't surfaced at his age and most grievous of all, I am sure my parents would be ashamed in their graves.

My heart broke at the intensity of the situation, dog food!

The whip landed again and Haris called out my name making me yell in anguish breaking the rule of not making a sound during punishment.

I looked up in fear at the realization of what I had just done.

My eyes met with Nina's and her lips turned up in a devilish smirk, I could see the gleam in her eyes as we both heard his footsteps which we always heard any moment I screamed.

I could smell him, his appealing scent no matter how much I tried to resist filled my senses and my wolf whimpered in need of him.

He's coming, Her tone was sad as she notified me, Maybe he would take pity on us this time.

She always had hope and it annoyed me but I couldn't blame her.

Who wouldn't want to be loved and cherished? Who wouldn't want to experience the love and warmth that came from the one designated for you by fate and who wouldn't want an attractive golden boy-loving partner for a mate?

The door to my designated tutored room opened and I whimpered immediately after he entered and his scent filled the room.

"Mate." I Turned looking up at him to hold his gaze but Nina's palm immediately met with my cheek, slapping me so hard that I fell against the coals on my wounded skin and I screamed out again as the pain was too much to bear as my skin burnt with sharp stings.

"Pathetic." Logan, the Alpha of our pack and my mate groaned like he was in pain from seeing me, "Why did you have to scream and disturb my meeting?!"

"You didn't have to come down my love. I was handling her just fine." I watched as Nina walked up to him and I returned to my former position on the coals before I was told that moving would attract more punishment.

I saw her place a hand on his chest leaning towards him and his hand went to her waist drawing her close to him.

He hugged her close, dropping his face to her neck sniffing in her perfect scent before moving back to her face and giving her a deep kiss.

I cringed as she let out an expression of pleasure from kissing my mate.

A dull ache gnawed through me, it was a pain greater than what I had felt before and the reason why I was feeling this pain was because he never let me reject him.

He rejected me but forbade me from accepting his rejection as that would bring his powers down so any time he got physical with Nina, I could feel the pain.

My heart tore each time I saw him with Nina.
