She didn't know when, where
and how she did wrong. For what she is being punished. She didn't remember at all. She didn't remember about going against his father. She didn't remember about not helping any needy or poor. She didn't remember if she ever caused anyone any single tear. Then for what she is being punished.
"will ever breakfast be served? "She heard his alpha yelling from dinning room"c...coming"she said timidly. As she himself grabbed the dish and went out of a big massive kitchen. Maids following her behind. They all knew who she is? They all pitied her but who could do anything. Inhaling harply her mate's scent, she placed the plate in front of him who didn't ever spare her glance.
"aren't you eating Aeri?" Book—su the left hand of Alpha asked. And Aeri, which was her name, smiled kindly. Looking at her mate who was eating silently not giving any shit to if his mate was eating or not.
Cause he knew her omega would not disobey him. If she could she would have done it a long time ago..... When heartless alpha asked her to never get pregnant but......... ...Oh how she begged his alpha to not to do anything. How he begged her alpha to spare that innocent soul. But no....people don't call her heartless for nothing.

"Aeri?" She got back to reality by Book—su once again. "no....no... I am not feeling hungry..... You should continue" Aeri refused politely. Nodding, he continued his own breakfast.
As Aeri just stood there with her head bowed and hands crossed in front of her. It was her place. Yes, everyone knew what her place was. She was at the place of their Luna. She was their second leader. But no, they were not permitted to even call her Luna. She would stand behind all the times with servants.
"No one has the right to call him Luna..... He is not..... I will find one soon for you" words of her alpha mate echoed through her mind as her eyes brimmed with tears. But she looked down. "Kim Daehyun..... Your friend wants to visit you and is asking for your time and permission, " Book—su, who was his right hand, asked. As alpha just nodded his head"tell him to come after tomorrow" alpha replied as he cleaned his hands with a napkin.
"Who made food? "he asked practically no specific maid. "I..... I did alpha"an old lady said bowing before she could answer. "Hmm, it was delicious,"Alpha praised her. As she chanted thanks to him. Alpha just wanted to let one specific omega to feel hurt and pain. Oh only if he could see in her eyes. He would mourn as to how much pain omega holds in those eyes.
Aeri makes all the meals of the day daily. And always would hear her alpha's scolding as to how tasteless food is it. And today when Aeri spent practically three hours making breakfast. That old maid didn't want it to go all in vein. So she just said it. And alpha who praised her on purpose. As he would never do it if she had spoken at the place of that old maid. Aeri just looked as how her mate discussed all the things with his special men along drinking juice in breakfast.
"Aeri", her alpha's cold and harsh voice once again snatched him back in reality. "y....yes alpha" She bowed. " What are your chores for today?" Alpha asked. It was not like he didn't know..... Yes he knew what chores his mate would be doing,yet he was here to ask Aeri just to humiliate him. "I... I have to....take care of horses....... Then..... Help others to....color the.... C... Clothes" Aeri mumbled as alpha smirked. As an evil plan was being cooked in his mind.

Aeri was dusting the vase placed in the royal throne room. It was evening and she didn't even eat any single piece of bread. Because it was the order from his alpha. And she couldn't disobey him. She didn't know how and when that vase broke. Cause when she left the room, after dusting and cleaning it was alright. Not to mention the "witness "who said that he saw Aeri breaking the vase.
And when the matter came to the head manager of servants ,she already had hatred toward Aeru as he had Alpha as her mate. She took her hatred on poor and naive Aeri.. And punished him with 30 lashes, to set an example for other servants to never make the same mistake again.... She gathered all the servants of the palace to see their LUNA getting punished. And the alpha who was watching this all by standing on the balcony of his room. "You planned this didn't you?" Book—su interrupted him and the Alpha just smirked.
Still looking down on the ground seeing his mate getting lashed. "So what if I did?" He rather asked him. "You let your man break that vase.... Didn't you?" Book—su knew all the wicked games his alpha leader was playing. "Yes," Alpha answered. "Doesn't it hurt, Seeing your mate in pain.... Doesn't it hurt?" Book—su asked.
As to what the alpha answered "no.... I want all of them to suffer. Just because his father wanted the throne, just because his father wanted the label which my fager deserved, because he wanted to get rid off me..... But hurt everyone who was related to me" Alpha said feeling rage in his veins at the mention of his past. "not everyone was your alpha mate....... " Book—su clearly noticed the stiffness in Alpha's body. "Just don't regret your deeds later
Kim yeh—Joon"
