The Light's Savior Is A Shadow

Chapter 2

Luciana continued to walk. Moving passed pack members who scoffed at her. Throwing insults or dirty looks. She was lower than them. She knew it. They knew it. They made sure she was well aware that no matter where she went. If she were to seek out another pack. It wouldn't change. For no one would treat an omega with kindness. As they were born to be workhorses. To serve till the day they died.

That was the life of an omega. In this pack at least, because of them. She believed it was the life of omegas in all packs. There was no escape. No way of a better life.  Luciana entered one room. Home to other pack members. She began to clean. Sweeping, dusting, disinfecting. Scrubbing every surface, nook, and cranny. For if she missed a spot. The punishment would be a beating or her weekly meal removed.  Room after room. She cleaned away. As her skin cracked and blistered from the hard work and chemicals that were not entirely safe for skin. Buying gloves for the omega to use to clean was not something one should do. They did not deserve such things.

As she was told of corse. Hours later as the sun neared the horizon. She was finished cleaning the pack house. Thankfully she didn't have to cook lunch or dinner. That was always left to the individual wolves so they could have alone time or meals with their mates and or families. Her hair was once again tangled. Her body bruised and covered in rash from the onslaught of kicks and jabs, and being covered in cleaning chemicals.

But the days work was done. She could go home. Luciana carefully made her way towards the door. Finally she was out. But she kept her eyes and ears open. There were those who loved to follow her, and beat her for their amusement when no one was watching. Even though it wasn't like anyone would stop them.

Halfway across the clearing nearing the woods where she would shift. A voice called out. " OMEGA!! My mate's necklace is missing. You were the last one in our room. Get your pathetic ass over here!!" Snarled a voice. The beta.  Luciana flinched and halted her footsteps. She knew there was nothing she could do. She knew she didn't do anything. But she would be blamed anyhow.  She turned and headed towards the hulking male. Who was twice the size of her. Bulging with muscle and radiating power. A small crowd began to form. Frowns and snarls echoed. But she could feel their gazes. Filled with excitement. They all knew she wasn't stupid enough to steal anything. That the male was lying.

But they all wanted some entertainment. Today's was to see the omega put in its place for the thousandth time. " Where is the necklace. " the male hissed.
Luciana gulped heavily. As she tried to form words. Her mind screamed at her to run. To escape. She felt the bloodlust of everyone around her. But she wouldn't dare move. It would be worse if she ran. It took a sheer force of will, or terror to remain still. The female was quivering and shaking. Fear wafting off of her in waves. " I-I don't know Sir. I must've dropped it." She replied. She knew she had never touched it. But to deny the crime they already condemned her for was to ask for much worse than they already planned. " You dropped it? Of corse you did. You can't even steal shit right you little brat. Worthless bitch. But just in case. Before I serve your punishment. Search her." The beta spoke the command.

Before she could think she was grabbed harshly. Nails digging into her arms and hair. Slicing skin and drawing blood. She didn't cry out. She refused to give the sick bastards the satisfaction. The two wolves that had her slammed her to the ground. Causing her to gasp in pain as the breath was knocked out of her. Their hands lewdly searched her. Squeezing roughly in her more personal areas. She grit her teeth and choked back the disgust that threatened to erupt from her throat. They found nothing. So they backed off for now. " Nothin eh. So you were telling the truth. Still. You must face punishment for your crimes little thief. One would think the omega would grow the intelligence to learn from past mistakes. But then again. It doesn't even have enough brain power to outweigh a dog" the beta growled as he approached. A wicked grin growing upon his face.

Luciana began to shake harder in fear. She wanted to beg and plead for him to leave her be.  But she wouldn't. She knew that would only make him happier. She didn't want that at all. She flinched as she saw the first kick coming. Barely holding back a shout of pain as it made hash contact with he ribs. Another kick came, and another, and another. Each more powerful and abusing. Slamming into her stomach and chest. She sucked in painful breaths as she felt her ribs crack under the kicks. They ceased after what seemed like eternity. But she knew they were far from done.

The beta continued. He took a hand to the back of her neck and closed it. Placing so much pressure that she feared her neck would snap. His claws extended, and dug deep into her skin. Just missing her jugular. The brute then took his free hand, and raked his claws down her back and sides. In a slow and agonizing fashion. Slicing skin and spilling blood. Luciana could no longer hold back her tears or pain. She screamed out in agony. As others laughed and cheered on their beta.

Hot tears of pain rolled down her face. As the beta continued his punishment. Brutally clawing her. Before letting her go. But only for a moment before he sent punch after punch to her already battered body. Slamming his fist wherever he could. Her head, neck, back, chest, stomach, legs, arms, you name it. Luciana curled into a fetal position, but it wasn't enough. Sickening crunches and crack sounded as he continued to beat her. Finally he was done. Just as black spots began to dance across her vision and as her world swayed.

" that should do it. Now get your ass back to your shack bitch. If you're not there by night fall. I will beat you far worse. Get out of my sight." The beta snarled at her. Luciana nodded and whimpered. She shakily stood up. Ignoring the disappointed boos as the beating finished. Ignoring the insults and comments. She began her long, and painful struggle home. As blood ran freely from her mangled back. Opening old scars and causing the new ones, as bruises started to cover her pale skin. Turning it green, blue and black. She limped heavily. Each movement sending waves of agony through her. But she dared not stop. She had to make it home. Else she would face far worse.

Night was drawing in when she reached her home. Soaked in her own sweat and blood. She staggered inside. Before collapsing on the floor. Unable to make it to her bed. The darkness of unconsciousness finally took hold. As blood pooled around her. She begged not to wake. She begged and prayed to the moon goddess to let her die. So she could escape her life. But her werewolf healing began to kick in. As it usually did much to her despair. She would not meet death tonight. As she lay there on the cold wooden floor. Her body rushing to heal as much as it could before she would face the next day. She begged for some sort of escape. Not expecting the moon goddess to even think about hearing her prayers. For she too probably despised her.

( Wooo two chapters in a day. Probably not finna happen again. Most likely two a week at most. But thanks for reading so far:)
