Omega's Rebirth

Neveah gritted her teeth against the searing pain that felt as though her scalp was being ripped off.

Tears sprang to her eyes against her will and trailed down her cheeks but she refused to let out even a single sound.

Neveah knew her sounds of pain would only spur her father on to hurt her even more, her father was rarely violent with her but when he was...he was the most brutal.

Neveah understood now what that sneer on Alpha Queen Vilma's face was about, the moment she had been summoned, her father already knew she had turned down Lucas Varleston's proposal.

Neveah did not even wonder how he had figured it out when she had ensured there was no one within close proximity to see, perhaps Lucas Varleston or his father had revealed it, unaware of the repercussions it would bring Neveah.

Or perhaps her father had other methods of finding out whatever information he wanted to.

The fact remained, Neveah had already done what she had, her father was furious and she would have to bear the consequences of defying him.

Neveah was flung across the room, her back slamming forcefully against the wall as pain exploded across her, yet Neveah still didn't make a sound.

"I have tried to indulge you Veah, still you choose to be... defiant, stubborn, foolhardy, yet I cannot bear to hurt you...you look so much like her, so much that it unsettles me." Alpha King Lothaire said in a dark tone as he glared down at Neveah.

Neveah lifted her gaze up to him, holding her father's gaze unflinchingly, Neveah knew clearly that the 'her' he spoke of was Neveah's birth mother.

The one person he knew Neveah wanted to know the most about, but he would never speak of Neveah's mother to her.

Leaving Neveah with no knowledge of who her mother was, no identity, no name... nothing and he delighted in just how clueless Neveah was.

Alpha King Lothaire stalked up to her and leaned down, brushing Neveah's hair away from her face before he grabbed her chin in a crushing grip.

"I cannot hurt you...but there is someone who can. I hear you have offended Alessio..." Alpha King Lothaire said in a casual tone.

Neveah's heart sank at the mention of Prince Alessio, she had not set eyes on him since that night and she had consciously avoided bumping into him.

Prince Alessio had not even arrived but Neveah already sensed his presence from a distance and she fiercely resisted the terror that crawled up within her as the door knob was turned and he came in.

"You called, father?" Prince Alessio asked, before his gaze trailed down to Neveah curled up on the floor.

"Your sister has grown too stubborn, take her away and remind her why she is not to defy her father's orders." Alpha King Lothaire said as he rose to his feet and headed back to the desk.

Neveah did not need to glance up to know there would be a depraved smirk rested on Prince Alessio's lips, he had always found pleasure in Neveah's misfortune.

For reasons Neveah could not understand, Prince Alessio hated her nearly as much as his mother did.

Perhaps his reason was the same as his mother's, Prince Alessio idolized his father and revered him like a mini god,

Neveah's existence was a constant reminder that his god was not so perfect and Prince Alessio hated it, hated Neveah for being a stain on his father's honor and a thorn in his mother's side.

"As father wishes." Prince Alessio replied as he strode over to Neveah.

"What did I say Omega? Menvi El Lumet Kur." Prince Alessio murmured to her.

Grabbing a handful of Neveah's hair, he pulled, dragging her across the ground out of Alpha King Lothaire's office.

Neveah whimpered as the whip struck across her back again, ripping through her skin and drawing blood.

The excruciating pain and blood loss nearly had her passing out but Neveah shook her head against the black spots dancing across her vision.

Neveah was hooked up to metal chains in the dungeons as Prince Alessio stood before her, holding in his hand a whip.

The moment Prince Alessio had taken hold of her hair, Neveah had already known where he would take her... down to the depths of the dungeons where no one would hear her screams.

Neveah would think it was in consideration of the guests present in the Eclipse Palace but she knew it was not so, this was not the first time Prince Alessio had dragged her down to the dungeons like some criminal.

For the past hour, he had whipped her repeatedly and Neveah had not uttered a single sound beyond the occasional whimpers.

Neveah was grateful her wolf was understanding enough to withhold her healing abilities, letting the wounds bleed out convincingly to Prince Alessio's eyes.

That way, in his eyes, Neveah looked to be nothing but a weak and distasteful human.

An entire hour had passed by and it was only now that Prince Alessio relented in his whipping, when he had practically ripped open every ounce of flesh across her back and chest.

"Do you understand now? Or shall we continue our lesson?" Prince Alessio sneered disdainfully as he watched Neveah.

Neveah ignored his words, she would never admit to a wrong... she did nothing wrong, they were the ones who were wrong, all of them.

"Do you regret it? Protecting him and risking father's wrath?" Prince Alessio asked again.

"You told father, didn't you?" Neveah asked in realization, her thoughts confirmed by Prince Alessio's silence.

"Regret? There is nothing to regret." Neveah said with a pained chuckle.

"You never learn, do you Omega? Was Lucas Varleston that good in bed?! You are willing to bear this pain for him?!" Prince Alessio snarled furiously.

As always, in the bid to force Neveah to loose her calm, he ended up loosing his own calm instead.

Neveah smirked as she stared straight at Alessio whilst saying her next words.

"At least he got me to scream... and he didn't even have a whip." Neveah replied, smirking in satisfaction as Prince Alessio's furious growl shook the dungeons.
