WITTED LEAVES.
DAPHNE'S POV" I would love to announce to you all that I would be making this beautiful lady here my twentieth concubine,"Alpha Ares spoke to everyone with his head held up high, looking above their heads, the sky, the trees and then into my eyes.Words could not express how awkward I felt at that particular moment. I sincerely thought someone might have heard us and had reported to the alpha.He held my hand tightly, interlacing his fingers with mine. His hands were not as cold as Amelia's, they were warm and comforting unlike his whole aura.The crowd in front of us cheered, their hands clapping uncontrollably. They all wore obvious smiles on their faces, some showed their brown teeth.I swallowed my saliva and tried my best not to throw up. I could still feel Lita's glare on me.The sudden urge to glare back at her disturbed me but I refused to let her control my emotions.After a short while, I was taken into his pack house and then his room and I was alone with him.His gaze touched every part of my body. I felt it; all of it. He stood close to the door while I am sat on the bed acting like I don't know what is in his mind.I should give in but giving in would require me to forfeit all my mother's training. I wasn't ready to do that.At that very moment I didn't know what to do or say. I had a lot of screams packed in my throat that were too scared to escape.He walked towards me slowly. I opened my mouth to talk regardless of how futile it would be to him." Wait!" I mumbled.He stopped and bit his lips in a self satisfied smirk."Where did all that fierceness go to, are you scared?" He asked while a burst of laughter left his mouth like a snort.I stood up, my fists clenched by my side. His words spike a forgotten anger in me.Inwardly, I was seething and patiently waiting for him to make the first move. He drew closer quickly.I backed away, lifting my head up to look at him. He took his left hand and placed it on my face. His gaze, still buried deep on me- in me." You are so beautiful, Daphne. Your whole being, your whole existence gives more reasons to live," he whispered.I turned my face from him in a huff."What?" He asked, his hand still resting on my chin." Isn't that what you also said to your nineteen other concubines?" I pulled away from him and sat on the bed. A very large bed that was place in the center of the room.He placed his hand on his waist and stared at me like my words caught him off guard. For the first through out that day I smiled because I enjoyed how disoriented he looked.I had a shimmer of hope that he might not atleast take advantage of me. He might not use my body and he wasn't a pervert after all. It seemed like it was some kind of test and maybe, just maybe I had passed the test." I might have said this to alot of women but I have never taken anyone into my personal chambers. It means you are special, very special," Ares blew out of the water.My trust issues didn't allow his subtle words to sink in. He still sounded like a horny Alpha.He came to me again, we were close enough to breathe each other's breath. He smelled like leaves and grasses. There was nothing satisfying about the way he smelled.As he leaned, he planted a kiss on my forehead, then on my cheeks and then on my neck and then his lips was everywhere on my body.Each touch lingered before leaving. His rubs my shoulders, and dipped his hand underneath the sleeve and he pushed it down to fall.He looked at me and kissed my lips. Before I could react, he kissed me again.I gave up, I have lost this game." I am sorry mother," I said to myself.It felt like the entire room was going swallow me as he gently pulled down my gown.I shut my eyes close, prepared for the worst to happen and the worst did happen.He pushed me against the bed and climbed ontop of me. He was without any other desire but to lay with me.He uses his knees to shift my legs aside and far from each other. They were widely spread. He looses my wrapped hands and spreads them on the bed, holding them tightly.Pushing forward, I struggle to get out of this captivity but my strength was nothing compared to his.Truly He was a predator and I was his prey. Normally I would shout but I didn't. I knew too well not to anger an alpha that was ten times more stronger than me and I also knew that his walls were too thick for anyone to hear me.He left one hand and i tried to push him. Swiftly he placed the my hand on the other, while he unbuttoned his trousers.Thrusting inside me with every strength he had I bit my lip to stifle a scream. I was not even certain that I could breathe again. It seemed like time came to a sudden halt and everything stopped with it. My heart, my thoughts, the closing room, my breathing, everything stopped!.He was inside me again, this time he was gentle and slow. My body was about to explode, it could not longer handle it.I could no longer handle it. I let out a soft moan, rolling my eyes up. Somehow my hands were free and placed on his back as I pushed him deeper inside me. He pulled away.He buried his head within the folds of the bed cover as he drove back into me.Abruptly, the door swung open.LIES.I stared at the chandelier as its stones collided with each other. To my greatest surprise Ares didn’t turn to look at who interrupted our love making. He continued to thrust into me with every ounce of strength he had. “My Alpha, you are making the biggest mistake of your life,” Lita yelled, her voice sounded so cracked so it took me a couple of minutes to realize that she was the one yelling.Ares stops and turns to look at her, he remained quiet while his attention was still fixed on her. Turning back to me, his entire being was consumed with rage. He rolled away from me, covering his body with bed cover while I used the other half to cover mine.I was so confused. What was happening? What was Lita talking about?Anger thrummed through her veins. She struggled to breathe while she rested on the door, holding her stomach.She yelled again “You are making the biggest mistake of your life, she is not one of us!”Ares snapped “How dare you come into my chambers forcefully? Are
LITA’S POVThe maid cut the last strap of bandage used to wrap my head as I sat facing a window. Everything that had just happened kept replaying in my mind. Right from the moment I pierced daphne’s neck to the moment Ares pushed me to the wall.“ what so special about this daphne? Why would he do that to me?” I clenched my fists so hard as I mumbled these words to myself.My eyes, fixed at the full moon that illuminated the entire room. I was left alone for hours until I felt another presence in the room. It didn’t smell like Ares’s presence so I didn’t even bother to move an inch.“What were you thinking?” Keil mocked.I ignored his question, fixing all my attention to the moon. A sudden wave of regrets washed over me as tears gradually welled in my eyes. it hurt so much that I wasn’t able to hide it. I began to sob- silent sobs.He stood at the door, still waiting for me to say something.“Lita, what were you thinking?.” His low voice increased.“Do you seriously believe that I wo
DAPHNE’S POVI heard the sound of rain hit the ground, it was not too hard but there was something, odd about it. I woke up suddenly and though my eyes were open I can’t remember how what lead me to this bed the previous night. The rays of the sun steeped in into the room, casting long shadows on the walls. I lay by my side, facing the entrance of the bathroom.My eyes very heavy and without doubt I knew I had slept for a really long time. I couldn’t feel my feet for some time until life finally came to it; I didn’t hesitate to move my toes as I could now feel down. I remember my hands that have been interlocked together for a long time, beneath my cheek.I was too lazy to move so I remained in that position without having second thoughts. The bed was too comfortable to leave it and face the real world.A cold wind then touches me with each gusting a thousand icy needles against my skin. It was a winter- cold wind, not to harsh but cold enough to freeze one to death.It was so quiet.
LITA’S POVSitting on the floor, a series of rapid knocks pounded on the door, sending a jolt of anger through my veins. There was no need for me to try and recall if I invited anyone because I had been alone in my small home ever since I was banish from the pack house. I have not seen daylight or proper food. I have been depressed, refusing to leave my house that was situated far away from the pack’s mansion.The knocking was persistent, after taking deep breaths I stood up and I opened the door only to see Kiel standing in front of me, wearing a big smile on his face. It irritated me. As I was about to close the door back and return back to my initial activity, he held the door and spoke in a low tone.“Wait, Lita. We could actually help each other” he said. I squinted my eyes, trying to understand what the mad man was trying to say. He made me feel worthless the last time we spoke only to come to my wretched home, acting like a clown. How worthless have I truly become?My heart s
INSIDE THE ENEMIES MINDLITA'S POVKiel suddenly began to tell me a story "Years ago, the Siracusa pack was under siege. Our rivals also know as the Elisiva pack, attacked us continually without fear or mercy"I coughed, clearing my throat then i continued from where he stopped. Our anxious eyes, piercing each other." It was believed that our forefather, Siracusa, the eldest of the Siracusa brothers, was the strongest among them.He was a fierce and proud warrior, and his enemies feared him greatly. But even Siracusa was not immune to the Elisiva's wrath." I spoke "One day, Siracusa became so ill that everyone thought it was a strange sickness. Some thought it was a curse while other thought it was a plague that had swept through the land, killing many in its wake. Siracusa's enemies rejoiced, believing that their hated rival was finally defeated. Regardless, Siracusa was not one to give up easily. He fought the illness with all his might, and to everyone's amazement, he survived
DAPHNE'S POV"We are gathered here today because of something I never imagined would happen to me" Alpha Ares's echoed into the cold air.I turned to look at Amelia for her to tell me what was going on but all she did was remain reticent to my curiosity.He said " Something so dare to me is missing. I don't know where it is at the moment but I just want to believe that it wasn't stolen; therefore I urge you members of this great Siracusa pack to search and find it before dawn."I was still confused regarding what he had just announced. Looking at everyone's face there were no traces of confusion and all of them seem to understand his vague statement.The silence amongst us was the loud noise in the room."Ares, I'm sorry. Am I missing something?" I asked in a low tone. He doesn't say a word to me instead he stand up and leaves the sitting room immediately.This made the hair on my skin to stand because I was so frightened."Follow me" whispered Amelia who stood by my side.While the
KEIL'S POVWe all sat outside in silence, waiting for Ares to speak to us. He stood before us glaring, as anger mixed with fear stirred within him." I made an announcement earlier- I am now fully aware that the reason behind the situation I am in right now isn't as a result of my carelessness rather my necklace was stolen from me," he said, shifting his eyes from one face to another.As he made his statement about the necklace, most of the pack members began to murmur. Their voices were as loud as that of a swarm of bees." we are doomed!" bellowed an omega. "Who is this Traitor?" another asked.Their faces brooded while they spoke angrily. I could understand their fear.They all spoke with loud and angry voices but I didn't say a word to any of them instead I spoke to Ares, who stood close to me." Have you checked your chamber? perhaps it might have fallen off while you were asleep or having a bath" I suggested with evil intentions."I have checked everywhere Keil, the least you s
DAPHNE’S POV“Uhh, yes, don’t stop,” I heard different moans coming from the barn of the pack. I wanted to walk away but I couldn’t. The voice of the lady sounded so much like Luna Cecilia’s voice.I needed to make sure I was wrong, or else I would always carry this thought in my head. I walked closer to the door of the barn, then I slightly opened it.Lo and behold, I saw Luna Cecilia having sex with Alpha Darius, the junior brother to her mated husband, the alpha king.I couldn’t believe my eyes, the Luna queen was cheating on the alpha King with his brother.I was supposed to mind my business and walk away but the morals I learned from my late mother didn’t let me.Without giving it a second thought, I rushed into the room and interrupted whatever was going on in there.“I will exposé the two of you to the alpha king,” I announced, not realizing that I was making a very big mistake. They immediately put on their clothes.“How dare you?” She quizzed in a fit of rage and immediately
