Avenge Me, My Lycan King
Chapter 5
Sasha
The faes gasped and shot a death glare. One of them said, "But she looks like a commoner. Is she even a Lycan?"
"No," Gaia replied with a smirk. "She's an omega werewolf, and I can sense that her baby is the same species. So she is clearly deceitful and only wants to be like me."
"No way!" the first fae laughed, but her eyes narrowed as she continued, "This omega werewolf wants to be the Lycan queen? How absurd! We must put an end to her delusions at once!"
"She can't even fight and has no divine powers like Princess Gaia. How could she possibly think she has a chance?"
"If you are a Lycan queen, show us your strength and power, not just empty words!"
"Her crime is deception and treachery. She must be disciplined accordingly."
"She is subject to punishment by death. We must get rid of this impostor before she causes any more trouble in other territories."
Gaia nodded with their suggestions as she stared at me, folding her arms across her chest. "Prepare the execution immediately," she commanded. "Drag her out of this palace. I don't want her remains to be anywhere near my future kingdom!"
"No!" I screamed, forcing my feet to touch the ground. But they only made me stumble forward, my hands reaching out in desperation. The faes grabbed me roughly, dragging me down the grand staircase and out of the palace, ignoring my pleas for mercy.
Before I knew it, we were by the quiet river.
"We can just actually snap our fingers, and viola! You'll be gone," one of the faes sneered, a cruel smile on their face. "No one will even remember you were ever here."
But we want you to suffer a little longer," another fae sneered, pushing me towards the edge of the water.
"Now Go!" Gaia yelled. "Get your ass back to Sepher and never return here again!"
I turned around and noticed one fae whispering to Gaia. Though I could hear the words, saying, "Aren't we going to torture her more? Why banish her just like that?"
"What? No?" Gaia laughed. "This whore will not get away easily."
"Then what are your plans, Your Highness?"
Instead of answering, Gaia stepped towards me. Her eyes were wide as she raised her hand, and my body instantly elevated and hovered above the river below. "You will suffer a fate worse than death, sweetie," she said, and in one click of her fingers, I fell into the water below."
"Help!" I screamed as I struggled to stay afloat, but the icy water pulled me under. The faes' laughter echoed in my ears as I fought against the current, desperate for air.
Then one minute, I was above the water only to be pushed downward once again, the darkness closing in around me. My mind raced with thoughts of escape as I fought against the suffocating pressure of the river's grip.
It was then that some eyes emerged beneath me, blazing in the dark. My dread increased as I realized I wasn't alone under the water, and I really prayed they'd bring me up again.
"Help, please! At least save my baby!" I cried in my thoughts. My arms flailed wildly as I struggled to break free from the unseen force pulling me down. The eyes continued to watch, unblinking, as I felt myself losing strength.
It I felt some warm water gushing out of my womb.
"No. No, not here!" I wanted to control giving birth in the water, but the next thing I knew, the baby was already detached from my body, and was suspended between my legs. I tried my best to grab him, but the yellowed eyed monster swam upward, and in one swift motion, he was eating my baby whole.
"No!" I coughed, feeling my lungs filled with water.
