Chapter 238


    238–The Prophecy Comes True!


    It‘s been a few minutes since Billy left to collect Maynard. I saw a few others going after him to probably


    drug him before bringing him here. Otherwise, it wouldn‘t be easy for an Omega like Billy to control an


    Alpha.


    As everybody got up from their seats and started wailing, I reckoned they had brought Maynard here.


    My heart was pounding in my chest and creeps were running up and down my spine. The crying was


    terrifying to me.


    Soon, they dragged Maynard into the middle of the crowd. He was badly drugged and beaten up. I am


    assuming they beat him up after they were able to induce wolfbane in his body.


    “Maynard!” I cried for him, getting worried as he was bleeding heavily. He raised his face with difficulty,


    and after making eye contact with me, he lowered it again.


    “Ah!” Marcellus came out of one of the houses and eximed in relief, “I have craved this moment for


    years now. Right before our eyes is the man who raped and killed our beloved Olivia. He deserves


    every bit of punishment he can get.” Marcellus added as he pointed at Maynard.


    “Leave him alone,” I shouted, and this unsettled many. They shared nces and then looked my way


    to judge me.


    “Let him be? Even after what he did to our sister?” Poppy yelled, kicking Maynard in the face.


    “Fuck off,” I shouted at her, trying to get my hands free in anger. I would rather let Maynard speak from


    his side and then call him a culprit. Or maybe I was just not ready to admit I loved and epted


    someone as horrible as Maynard.


    The gang started cussing at me for taking Maynard‘s side. It was Marcellus who had to grunt in order to


    silence them.


    “It is fine. You all need to calm down. You don‘t need her sympathy or her side. She will have to do


    what we say anyway.” Marcellus smirked when his eyes fell on me. I got the hint.


    “Tie him up next to her tree,” he then ordered his men, and they bowed down to his wishes. They tied


    Maynard next to me and walked away to celebrate this moment.


    “Tonight is the night where we get justice,” Billy jumped on the wooden table and cheered the crowd,


    offering booze and dancing around. They were all excited about the execution of Maynard.


    They were ying music and danced with each other. Marcellus had once again left for his room to rest


    before he got the best sight of his life. Poppy was drinking heavily while sitting alone in the corner. I bet


    she knew once this was all over, she would lose Oswin forever. But she has already picked a side, so it


    is not like she can go back in time and stop them from hurting Oswin.


    “I hope they didn‘ty a finger on you,” Maynard whispered, his face buried and his eyes hiding from


    mine.


    “They haven‘t yet,” I replied. “They just hurt me with their words,” I said, as | remembered what they


    told me about him.


    “Eh!” I heard Maynard chuckling softly, “these assholes.” He spat the blood to the side and raised his


    face to rest his head back against the tree.


    “They told me why they brought you here,” I said, noticing his expressions and trying to learn as much


    as I could about him.


    “Hm! And they must have told you I am this scumbag, who raped and killed Olivia?” He bobbed his


    head while acknowledging he knew about the usations all along.


    “Why did you tell me she stole the weapons?” I inquired out of desperation.


    “Because she did,” Maynard said.


    “And the ims they are making?” I asked, getting curious about who was telling the truth.


    “Look me in the eye and tell me if you think I am capable of something that horrendous?” He turned his


    face to me and I instantly stole his eyes.


    “You cannot because I hurt you too.” He let out a littleugh while hiding the tears in his eyes.


    “Olivia was raped and killed,” he admitted out of the blue. My heart sank in my chest and I finally turned


    to make eye contact with him. There were tears streaming down his eyes as he stared at the sky after


    looking away from me.


    “How could you do something so disgusting to an innocent girl?” I was badly shaken when hearing his


    words.


    “She wasn‘t innocent,” he answered, and a wave of disgust ran through my body. It took me a minute to


    pull myself together and confirm that he really said that.


    “It doesn‘t matter what she was and what she wasn‘t. Youmitted a crime and then acted as if


    nothing happened? Is that why you were sent to the academy?” I was breathing profusely and crying


    for ever dating this man.


    “All this time, I thought you were just an asshole. I didn‘t know you were this messed up in your head,” I


    was increasingly getting frustrated with him and his mild scoffing was not helping me.


    “Think what you want to think. You are not getting another word out of me.” He stubbornly looked away


    from me and pretended to take a nap.


    I was furious!


    Betrayed!


    “I am trapped here because of you, Maynard.” I groaned, continuing to talk. “I am here because they


    think we are mates.”

    “What are they asking of you?” he asked, opening his eyes again and staring at me.


    “They want me to kill you,” I said again, and he only clicked his tongue.


    “Ah! That prophecy,” he nodded to himself, “So, are you?” he asked, making me frown at him.


    “Are you going to kill me?” he asked as he smiled and stared me in the eye. I don‘t know what was


    wrong with him, but this new him was just gross.


    Instead of answering him, I turned my face to the other side and swallowed the tears of anger and


    rage.


    “Tell me, are you going to kill me?” he proceeded to ask me, paying full attention to me


    this time.


    “I will,” I responded, determinedly.
