I waited for his fist to meet my face but thankfully, it didn’t get to that point. He punched the wall beside me, hoping that would freak me out but he failed once again.No matter how afraid I am in my heart, I have learned to mask the fear with confidence and courage."Aramis!" Jocelina shouted out of shock, I bet she too thought he was going to hurt me. She was finally courageous enough to hold his arm and pull him away from me. The deep eye contact that he wasn’t ready to severe broke once she came between us."And you! Shut up before you regret opening your mouth," she warned me while pushing the giant werewolf back and away from me nonstop."Spare her for now. She has gone crazy after losing her freedom. Just go out and have a good time with Morgana," As she mentioned her daughter again, I understood that her main concern was regarding me ruining her daughter’s night out."I'm going back to my room and I don't want anyone bothering me," he freed his hand from her and stepped bac
We reached the Dark Autumn Pack after Jocelina prepared the gifts for the new Alpha Zion.I know they weren't visiting the pack to congratulate him out of happiness. Alpha King had made his intentions clear to me before about his animosity for the pack and I know it was just his subtle way of making his way inside our mansion.I had worn a black long dress and had a black pillbox hat with a net veil as demanded by Alpha King Aramis.Jocelina was wearing a blue gown and Morgana had a red dress on.Alpha King Aramis was in a Charcoal Grey suit. We rode in the Lamborghini together and it was the most awkward car ride I have ever been in.Now that I have arrived at the mansion again, the memories from before started to haunt me.They have set the garden as a venue for the coronation and after party.My family didn't come to greet me and neither did I approach any one of them.They saw me getting out of the car but remained on their spots and greeted the others with bouquets and gifts inst
Zion was surprised when he was stopped from hitting me and the person stopping him was none other than myself.I held his raised hand in the mid-way, protesting to get hit by him after he stole my everything.“You will not hit me again,” I mumbled but that’s when I felt another strong pair of hands getting a hold of me and pulling me away from Zion. Markus tripped me on the floor while aggressively standing straight in front of me.“We will not let a slave insult the alpha.” He warned me not to repeat this mistake. It was funny how my own blood was a poison in my body and in my life. Where everybody was silent, Veronica remembered she was hurt so she began to wail again.“Ahhh! It hurts,” she was squirming and crying with no tears.“Let’s take her to the room and call the salutary,” Hassel suggested and the others agreed with him. I remained on the floor, watching them walk past me and not even minding my existence like I was some dust in their way. After they have scattered away, I w
I didn’t protest either, he was running his hand up and down my stomach so gently that all I could feel was a soothing wave running through my veins.I heard his throat swallow a little gulp when his hand traveled up my stomach and stopped when it was right under my brea**.I was shivering a little, thinking hard about what he was planning to do. As soon as he decided to proceed, the whole mansion shook with the earthquake. And this time, it was pretty bad.He parted from me and stepped away, looking around and then stretching his neck angrily.We both knew what it was but he would never admit it was his fault that the wailing brides were angry now.“This won’t stop until they get what they are promised to get,” I voiced after the earthquake was over.“Go back to your room,” he ordered with a grunt, obviously he stole eyes from me now. I assume he was aware what he just did was beyond the boundaries he had created for us.“I will send a medicine to your room, it will help you heal qui
“I am warning you, Phoenix Hart! Don’t say those things again,” he warned me while standing just a foot away from my face.“So that you can do whatever fuc*ked up things you want to do?” I inquired, looking straight into his eyes.“Phoenix! Get the f**k out before I lose my control,” he closed his eyes and squirmed in anger, cocking his face to the side to avoid looking at me and getting angrier.“Not before you answer me. What are you planning to do with that naïve girl?” as I asked him again, he grabbed my arm and started dragging me towards the exit.“Let go of me,” I freed myself and snapped at him, “You told her that you are her mate?” I shouted, bringing my eyebrows together to express my anger towards him.“I did what?” he looked completely lost at this point, “Did you have one of those nightmares where you thought you are a warrior and the world is under your feet and then you woke up thinking it is all true and it really happened?” he showed the mentality of a child when argu
‘A monster's power is your weakness, he is not scary when you stop fearing him,'My father's words rang through my head and I got up on my feet. My eyes scanned the room quickly to find anything that could be used as a weapon.Finding nothing, I rushed out of the room and was struck with horror. Everybody was running around and screaming at the top of their lungs for help.I made my way to the end of the hallway and once I reached the staircase, I saw a prisoner trying to snatch a woman downstairs.I didn't think about my wolf not being with me and lunged at him.The moment my fist made a contact with his jaw, he trembled and fall down the staircase."Go and hide somewhere," I told her and the others while running downstairs where I could see more prisoners in red prison jumpsuits.I was surprised how they have managed to escape the prison but also shocked that they had run straight into the Alpha King's mansion.There were guards, that had been beaten up badly, and were lying down wi
After the wailing brides had left, I ordered the guards to take the dead bodies to the wailing river. I even find out that the Alpha King was being informed about the whole incident and he was returning. He even warned the guards from leaving the bodies at the wailing river but I made them do it anyway.I know they were afraid enough of the thought of the wailing brides returning with another mess and leaving the bodies for them to collect but now they were frightened of The Alpha king, who will get very angry when he will find out that they didn’t listen to him.I was in the living room with Morgana and Joce, waiting for the arrival of the Alpha King. The instant his car was parked, he rushed out and ran inside the living room.I had my face all messed up with a black eye and a busted lip. I couldn’t even heal and blamed it on the tiny amount of the wolfbane they inject into me every morning.He stopped right in front of us, probably acknowledging how much damage those prisoners have
I hated that he had seen me crying. I cleaned my tears with difficulty and marched outside to hear him out. I have seen him avoid getting inside the room many times, he would only march in when he was too angry.“Don’t tell me you have punished the guards,” I used my normal voice, pretending like I wasn’t even crying just a second ago.“Stop pretending,” he said in a calm voice, but I frowned like I had no idea what he meant?“I am sorry?” the tears were wanting to spring out with force, but I was keeping them hostage until I am alone again to cry in peace.I was mistreated so many times that I promised myself I will not beg before someone noticed me or feel for me. Tonight, he had a chance to make me believe he felt a little concern for me but he missed it. I am sure whatever he would say now will just be an act.“Your injuries are still fresh, why?” he mentioned my injuries and it burned my skin like a fire. I hated him talking about my pain now.“They will heal. Tell me about the g
