Elara’s POV

“Get on your knees.”

was still standing there, her gaze steady as she fixed her eyes on me, daring me to

make the first move.

I didn’t have the luxury of time. And I certainly didn’t have the strength to fight back. A flicker of hesitation crossed my mind before I heard the sharp command from Lance.

“Guards,” he said, his voice cold but oddly calm, “Lady Miela needs assistance.”

At his words, the guards moved forward, their boots scraping against the stone floor as they closed in. I could almost hear the excitement in their steps. They were eager to see someone brought low, eager for a spectacle.

“Wait!” Miela’s voice rang out, trembling slightly, but still holding an edge.

I stood frozen, my feet unwilling to take a step forward. Being forced into position like this–by these lowly guards, no less–felt worse than any fall to my knees. It made me feel even smaller than I already did.

“Just get it over with,” I muttered under my breath, feeling the weight of the room press down on me.

I shuffled forward with a sigh, my heart a tangled mess.

“Elara…” My voice faltered as I spoke her name, a bitter taste rising in my throat.

“Get into the right position,” Thorne’s voice was like ice. It cut through my words like a knife.

I shuddered. Every time I faced Thorne, it was as if the past came crashing back. He had been my Alpha once. And now? Now I was the one

who had betrayed him.

With great effort, I forced my body down onto my knees in front of Elara.

“J–Elara…” I gritted the words out.

“I am… sorry,” I whispered, but the words felt weak. Insincere. It wasn’t enough, and I knew it..

“Louder,” Elara’s voice was steady, yet piercing. “I can’t hear you.”

tglared at her, my hands curling into fists at my sides. Resentment bubbled up from deep inside me. But I knew there was no way out.

“Elara,” I repeated, this time with more force, “I am sorry!” My voice wavered, betraying the anger swirling within me.

But Elara didn’t let it end there. No, she wanted more. “Sorry for what?”

My teeth ground together. “I… I am sorry for what I did to you… behind Alpha Thorne’s back… And I beg you, please forgive me…”

She chuckled softly, a laugh that sent chills down my spine. “You’re sorry for what? For betraying me? For thinking you could ever walk all over me and get away with it?”

I felt a flush of heat crawl up my neck. “I

“You don’t even have your King’s support, do you?” Elara’s voice grew colder. “How does that make you feel? You’re on your knees without

anyone to back you up. Does that make you feel like a fool?”

I snapped my gaze upward, my eyes flashing with fury. “I’m not going to answer that!” I bit

“Answer her,” Thorne’s voice was a low growl. He wasn’t asking.

Lance cleared his throat from the side, his presence a silent reminder that he was still there, watching. He didn’t intervene. Just stood by, like

an observer to my humiliation.

I swallowed hard, my head heavy with the weight of the moment. It felt as if the ground itself wanted to swallow me whole. I couldn’t escape.

“Yes,” I spat out. “I feel like an idiot.” The words were

“Yes, an idiot.” Elara’s voice was sharp, her words slicing through the tension like a blade. “Don’t forget that. And don’t come near me again, understand?”

I didn’t say anything. Instead, I shot her a look that was full of silent hate, a promise of revenge. She might think she had won now, but one day–one day, would make her pay for this.

Elara didn’t seem to mind. She had made her decision long ago. She wasn’t going to let me off the hook. She would find her revenge in her

own way.

But now? Now, I had to think about surviving. About getting out.

“I’m going to have you checked by a doctor,” Thorne said, his voice softer now, though there was an edge to it.

He bent to reach for me, but I jerked back, avoiding his touch like it

“I’m fine,” I muttered, my voice barely above a whisper. “I can walk.”

Thorne’s face darkened at my rejection, his jaw clenching. “You’re injured.”

“My legs are fine. I can walk just fine,” I snapped.

I attempted to rise, but my body was slow to respond.

And just then, Lance’s voice rang out again, the sound smooth and condescending. “Alpha Thorne, I think we’re far from finished here. We still haven’t discussed her punishment.”

Thorne’s eyes narrowed, his body stiffening. “We’ve already discussed it,” he growled. “My stance is clear.”

Lance tilted his head, as though pretending to consider the matter. “Sure, sure, But cutting off Elara’s hands was… excessive. However, I can’t just let her off lightly. Especially now that she’s one of us. Those soldiers she killed? They’re our soldiers too now.”

His eyes locked onto Thorne’s, his smirk growing. “If you don’t do something about it, I might start to question if you’re really one of us.”

Chapter 149

Elara’s heart sank. She knew what Lance was doing. He was setting the stage for a confrontation, trying to manipulate Thorne into doing his bidding.

“Well, I’ve been thinking,” Lance continued, his voice dripping with mock sincerity, “Maybe a minor punishment would do. Gamma Elara how about you take up some maid duties to make up for your… mistake?”

Elara’s eyebrow shot up at the suggestion. He wanted her humiliated. Degraded to a servant. But she wasn’t exactly unfamiliar with that role.

And honestly, the thought of it didn’t bother her that much. It would give her a chance to move around. To find a way out.

“Yes,” Elara said without hesitation, her voice steady despite the emotions running underneath.

But then, Thome spoke. And his words felt like a slap to the face.
