Elena"You look beautiful," my mom says. "Nervous?""A bit," I say.Ten days passed since Vladimir returned to me. And today is our joining ceremony. We will hold it outside so the entire pack can assist.My father and also Vlad will assist. Kalipso and Maite also said they would be here. Ever since I reunited him with Maite, we let our old differences away.The pack doesn't look at Vlad with trustful eyes, but they tolerated him. We also told the truth about me and my mom, but we kept a secret, for now, the vampire of Vladimir. He isn't bad, just addicted to sex. And I am becoming one too. Having a mate/groom almost always with a hard-on when we are alone makes me feel wanted, needed, loved, beautiful. And I love every second of the attention I get.Vladimir is the only one that knows the real me. For the rest of the world, I am still the cold Elena Țepeș, Alpha Supreme of all Europe."Let's go. I am sure Vladimir is nervous," my dad says.I take my dad's arm and go to my love. To my
Seven years laterVladimirLife has been peaceful for the last seven years. Being an Alpha is not my thing, but I help Elena with every that I can. The pack is bigger than before.After the death of Mihnea, we tried to make peace between the vampires and us, but it takes a lot of effort. Vlad helps as much as possible, but he still prefers to live alone, even if we invited him to live with us in the pack. A few vampires joined the pack. At first, it created a lot of tension between the pack members, but when a female vampire fell in love with a werewolf and started a family, things got better. Her name is Alice, and the werewolf is Sergei, from the former Silver Pack. They have a lovely young daughter, Alma.Even Ana and Mikael joined the pack. It took time, but Mikael finally convinced Ana to accept him, and they are expecting their first pup.We still have a lot of issues to resolve, but we are on the right track.Elena and I have three pups, Karmina and Alec, our twins, that are si
The slave I was in the kitchen cleaning the dishes when a cup slipped from my hand and fell on the floor with a loud noise, shattering. I look at it. My heart starts pounding so fast in my chest, and I am already trembling with fear. I know what is going to happen. The Alpha first hits me in the nose and then in the stomach, making me bend from the pain. Blood is dripping from my broken nose. "You worthless slave! You always break something. And every time you break something, it costs me money. How are you going to pay for what you broke now?" Alpha Max spits his anger at me while he keeps hitting me. I get on my knees and wait for him to stop. I put my arms around my head, trying to make myself as small as
I wake up sometime later, and I find myself on my mattress. How did I even get here? I feel naked beneath my dirty, thin blanket. The last thing I remember is being in the kitchen, Alpha Max beating me, and then nothing. And why does my body hurts so much? It usually hurt, but now I feel at least two bruised ribs. It hurts a lot while breathing. I hear the horses nickering. I don't have a room in the Pack House, and I am forced to sleep in the stable, in an empty corner. At least I have a roof over my head because I used to sleep outside next to the dog's kennels. "You are awake." I hear a voice that I knew so well. When I turn my head, I see Ana crying. I hate when she is crying
After taking the breakfast to the dining room, I go to clean the fireplaces from each room.I am already done with the room of the Betas when Cristina comes in. She looks at me with disgust."Still here? Finish what you have to do and leave already. You stink, and I don't want the room to stink like the stable.""I-I am s-so-sorry, I-I w-wi-will fi-finish im-immediately."I try to hurry because I know that Cristina doesn't like when I stay too long in the room. When I finish cleaning the fireplace, I get up and accidentally hit the bucket I use to collect the ashes. I gasp when I see the ashes getting all over the fireplace and the floor."What the fu
After the incident from the Betas' room, I made sure not to make any more mistakes. My body healed. I made sure to stay away from anyone while I cleaned and scrubbed. I didn't want another beating and to risk not being able to run away. To my surprise, Alpha Max left me alone these past five days. He has been busy organizing his birthday party. As a result, he didn't even look at me when I crossed paths with him in the Pack House. Tonight is the night of the Full Moon – the night I am going to escape. I am very nervous, but I try to appear calm. No one must suspect that I want to run away. If Alpha Max even suspects what I am planning to do and that Ana is helping me, not even the Goddess will help us escape his anger.
I have been on the run for two nights and a day. I was supposed to meet Bogdan yesterday, but it has been impossible to do so. I destroyed the letter in case I am recaptured. I don't want Alpha Max to find something that will incriminate Ana. He will for sure kill her. Not even Mikael will stop Alpha Max then. Alpha Max and his Enforcers are after me. I imagine how furious the Alpha must have been when he found out I had run away. Did he suspect Ana of helping me? I hope not. I am running through the forest close to the border between the Republic of Moldova and Romania. Once at the border, I am going to swim in the river Prut, the river that separates the two countries, and cross over to Romania. Once I get to the other side, I know I am
I calmly walk between the gathered pack members. They don't seem to notice me. I see them looking at Alpha Max, that is punishing a slave. How dares he break the laws and have slaves? This feels me with anger. I continue to get closer, and suddenly a smell of peaches fills my nose. I have met Max before, and I know it is not him. I also have been in this pack before, and no one smelled like this before. This meant one thing. The scent comes from the slave. My fucking mate! Just fucking great!When I am behind Alpha Max, I grab the whip, preventing him from hitting the slave again. My wolf howls with fury, sensing that our mate is hurt. I have to stop myself from breaking Max's neck. How dare he torture my mate?"Who the hell...?" he asks, but I kick him in the ass, and he falls to his knees.
