Just then her bedroom door opened. It was Clarissa, her supposed mom.
"Clara Darling, how are you doing?"
For Clarissa to call Clara darling is suspicious on its own.
Clara wasn't doing okay at all. She was literally terrified. But she tried all she humanely could to act normal so she wouldn't expose the fact that she knew of her plans letting them know she caught on could make everything get ugly quickly and fast. So she maintained her composure.
"Am fine mom, do you want anything from me?"
"Just want to send you on a small errand dear."
"Okay, mum. Where?
"Just go down by the grocery store to get me some groceries we want to make a delicious dinner tonight"
"Oh okay mum sure, whatever you say"
Hearing her say the grocery store dawned on her that she was truly being sold by her own family. She couldn't let on that she knew, so she had to play along. I I Hoping Gabe comes to her aid really soon.
"That's my girl, you better take care and come home soon"
"Sure mom, I just want to change my outfit a bit. What about the money mom?"
"Here you go dear"
"Thanks, mum see ya"
Clarissa's POV
Clara doesn't even know what's coming for her. There she is smiling, unaware of what is about to come. She has been a great help around the house for all these years and she will be 19 tomorrow so her birthday gift will be her being sold. Anyways she is really a nice girl. Too bad she isn't blood-related to me. It's either she gets sold or my family falls apart and I am not about to let my family be incomplete all because she has been a nice girl. What has to be done must be done.
I opened the door to her room, there she was nonchalant. Even smiling not knowing what's coming for her.
Now is not the time, to be sentimental she is just someone who has to go for us to keep living.
Just like I planned earlier with the merchant. I sent her to the grocery store two streets away. So she can be caught without anyone suspecting anything.
She even asked for money for the groceries... Ha-ha, nice.
I am tired of looking after a freeloader, so it's time to be free of such loads.
Like I expected she changed and came downstairs holding the grocery bag and headed out. That's the last time I will ever set my eyes on her. Good riddance Clara.
After Clara left Clarissa was very happy because her phone vibrated and there it was the other part of the payment. Meaning she has been caught. Now she can show off on her upcoming birthday, to her useless friends who thought she'll never rise. This made her dance around the house.
Clara went straight as if she was going to the store in case Clarissa wanted to see where she was going.
She tried going through another route so as not to be caught by these people. But to her greatest surprise, many people are trailing her. In no time she was caught.
She wanted to scream but her voice was totally lost.
~~~~~~~~
"Gabe, what do you mean she is in danger?" Liam asked Gabe who was standing like a statue
"She sent me this" Gabe showed Liam the text earlier received from Clara.
Liam roared that everyone in his pack trembled in terror.
Immediately his beta rushed in
"Eric there is war, our sworn enemy has eyes on my Luna let's go bring her home"
Eric became agitated and said to Gabe
"You stay here and keep the pack safe until we return"
"No I want to come along Liam she is my friend"
"And she is my Luna. Be rest assured I will get her home safe even if it means I kill every wolf that gets in my way." Lee said
His eyes have already turned red with fury,
Immediately Eric transformed into his wolf self and he and Liam ran off howling.
They left Gabe with the responsibility of taking care of the pack.
They first raced to her home and Liam inhaled her scent and he started trailing after them with Eric right beside him. Alpha Liam and his beta Eric are unstoppable when they are together.
After hours of following the trail and scent of Clara, they saw a van far ahead with a cage attached to it where they captured some other girls, guess the truck wasn't enough to place them in.
They chased the van and in no time caught up with it.
Eric attacked and killed the driver of the van first, and this made the van stopped moving and they crashed into a tree.
All the wolves jumped down ready to attack.
The omega came down in his human form only to see a huge black wolf with red eyes.
"To what do I owe the honor of meeting an Alpha and a Beta in these woods?" Luke, the omega responsible for making the sale of Clara possible said hoping those words stop the unnecessary bloodshed of his men.
"You have someone of mine in these vans of yours and it would be best if you returned her"
"Am sorry Alpha, but there was no wolf captured today, you got the wrong truck" Luke said
"I think I have the right truck and no she is not a wolf, but a human"
"Okay to stop unnecessary fights between us, you can check the truck," Luke said knowing that he couldn't fight them even if he wanted to.
So if it's just some random girl they are looking for they can take her so he can get home.
"Good for you to accept defeat," Eric said.
So Luke opened the truck, and they looked through and found Clara passed out.
"That's her" Liam roared with anger
This took Luke unawares, he was hoping it wasn't Clara because that's who his master personally wanted tonight.
"I am sorry Alpha, but my master already has her marked and will kill me if I don't deliver her to him tonight."
"Okay then, if you say so," Liam said.
"Really thank you Alpha"
Liam turned to go but rushed up to him and separated his head from his body. That Luke's lifeless body slumped to the ground without any hesitations.
The remaining wolves came howling at them, Eric and Liam wasted no time in annihilating them.
After that, they opened the cages and vans so that if they all woke up, from the drugs given them the wise ones would find a way to head back home. Before they send reinforcements.
After that Liam walked up to Clara who was sleeping soundly unaware of her surroundings due to the hard drugs in her system he picked her up and carried her in a bridal style, and headed home...
~~~~~~
"Beta, why isn't Omega here yet with my merchandise?"
"I have no idea master, I will send some reinforcements maybe they are being delayed by traffic"
"Well I want my merchandise right this instant"
"I will personally go to check on Luke myself master be rest assured"
After his beta left, the Alpha kept looking at Clara's portrait; he couldn't wait to run his hands through every part of her smooth skin.
The Beta sent by the warlord traced omega to where he was and what he saw made him really angry, they (He and Luke) weren't that close but back in town Luke was the closest thing he had to a friend seeing him live less on the floor was an awful sight.
This enraged him that all his men were massacred and this was no job of humans but the job of a very strong and angry wolf. Who could they be?
He had no choice but to go back home since there was not one piece of merchandise left, they must have escaped immediately when they woke up.
He left to break the news to him, knowing fully well his Alpha would get enraged if he found out. But keeping it to himself would only make things worse and he was right.
"What do you mean by my merchandise isn't there?"
"Not just yours Alpha not a single one of them were around am sure they've escaped"
"And what happened to my omega?"
"He has ripped apart master"
"Did you bring any part of him back with you? I need to find out who did this and make them pay"
"Yes master"
He brought his head of Luke back with him and the king Alpha as they call him placed his hands on Luke's head to deduct what happened.
As soon as he placed his hand on it. He had a small vision of what had happened, and there he was. Alpha Liam rips Luke's head off. And that was what happened.
"It's him, Alpha Liam, he knows better than to disturb my cargo it must have been someone important to him. Hahahaha" Alpha T laughed out loudly.
"Should we attack them now master?
"No, let them go, for now. We will act with caution, you don't just jump into the flames you attack your enemies when they least expect it, this is war they won't know what hit them"
