There was silence in the headmistress’s office and my lips were parted to speak but nothing came out except air. What just happened?! He really was going to take them to the Punishment Grounds?Nobody spoke a word and I looked up to find Dominic staring down at me with a cold face. I did not know what to say to him. I did have a feeling that he was planning something. Did not expect it to turn out this way though.He forwarded his hand towards me, “You may continue with your classes. I will come to take you in the afternoon,” he said and walked out of the office.The headmistress looked baffled and she stared at me once before walking out of the room to accompany the Alpha. Professor Luther did the same.I was now left alone with Jannet and Candice who had their jaws touching the floor.“Oh my God!” Candice shouted,“I can’t believe they are finally going to get punished, Av! ” Jannet squealed and Candice was still in shock mode from what she witnessed.I did not say anything.We walk
Two female wolves who were highly ranked in the Blood Moon Pack stepped forward with a bucket in their hands. They walked over to the two girls who were Natalie’s minions. One of them pulled out something from the bucket and it was mud. The mud was applied to both the girl’s faces and they screamed. My body stiffened at the sight. The wolves then went further and forced the girls to eat the mud. They cried as their mouths were shoved with mud and my body trembled. It was not because I felt bad for them. It was because those two did the same with me once. My face was smeared with mud by their hands and they had forced me to swallow mud. I cried and asked for help but nobody had come to my rescue. My friends were in their classes, unaware of what happened to me. This act was not in the video. Then how did Dominic know? Next, the guy whom I had seen in the ball dancing with Jannet came forward. He was the same man I had seen in my house the day Dominic came to take me. His hair was ti
||DOMINIC’S POV|| My jaw clenched and the pulse ticked in my jaw. A low growl slipped my throat as I stared back at him. The bastard had the audacity to threaten her! How could he know what she was? Did he somehow gather information? Staring straight at his eyes, I could tell he wasn’t lying. I did not push Avery about her past relationship because Asphalt sensed that it was a fragile part of her life that she did not like to expose. So I went ahead with my investigation and found out all the pain she went through. Out of all of them, Samuel Smith made me the most furious. There was a possibility he figured it out since he was with her before I came. But if he thought he was going to get away with threatening me, then he had mistaken. I could use the darkness to my advantage. My eyes turned red and Asphalt took over me. Samuel’s eyes widened and his jaw twitched when he felt his tongue twisting inside his mouth. If the only thing he could do was bark, then I would take away his s
The next morning, I woke up and found myself in Dominic’s bed. He was nowhere to be seen. My head felt a little heavy.Stepping out of the bed, I made my way to the washroom and took a warm shower to clear my head. The warm water helped to ease the nerves that were bothering me. Last night was difficult to digest.I wanted Samuel to be punished but the sight of his body completely disfigured was not on the list of ways I thought he would be punished. It was a shocker and it had taken a lot of strength in me to watch the whole thing unfold.I stepped out of the washroom and jumped on my feet when I saw a tall figure standing in front of me.“Good morning, kitten,” he had a light smile on his face, which, in no way, reflected any emotion on what he did last night.I stiffened and the air to breathe on felt thin. Was I angry at him? No. But was I scared?Maybe.“Good morning,” my voice came out hoarse and my throat went dry.His jaw twitched an inch before he stepped forward, and my feet
Jannet’s question brought back unpleasant memories of him. The tortures I had to go through—physical, mental, and even sexual. He had gone to the extent to rape me and I couldn’t have done a thing to save myself. All the nightmares he had given me when I was alone in my room, deciding on whether to jump down the roof of my house and end this misery for the final time.A shudder ran up my shoulders and I breathed in deeply.“He deserved it. All of it,” I said and wiped the tear that was threatening to fall down the brink of my eye.Jannet gave my hand a soft squeeze, then pulled me in for a hug. Her embrace was warm and assuring. I was finally free from all the pain and torture—thanks to one person. No amount of gratitude could level to what I felt at the moment.I had expressed my gratitude in words to him this morning, but was that enough? Definitely not.The rest of the classes passed in a blur. It was either the stares I received from the others in the class or the boring lectures t
I swallowed, “Then shouldn’t I be staying…a-away from you?” He stared at me in silence, his eyes reflecting as two deep pools with raging storms rising within, one that would engulf me without warning. “Did I ever harm you in any way?” he asked with a hard look and I bit my inner cheek. “No,” I mumbled, but the answer was pretty clear in my head. He never had. “But that doesn’t mean you wouldn’t, in the near future,” I licked my dry upper lip and slowly lifted my head to look at him. A sigh escaped his mouth, “Now, that is true enough,” his words caused my heart to hitch, an unpleasant feeling veiled upon it. He was not going to defend himself? “So, there are chances that you can?” I asked with a raised brow. He clicked his tongue, “I do not make empty promises, Avery.” My eyes widened and I straightened my back against the seat, disappointment etched to my emotions. That was not how anyone else in love would speak. “Then how am I supposed to be with you?” “Why wouldn’t you?” hi
I did a big mistake. That was staring at him. His eyes devoured me, a myriad of emotions playing in them. One of them included admiration and the intensity was enough to make my legs wobble. I licked my lower lip and focused on his wound, while his eyes stayed on me. There was silence for sometime before he spoke. “Never thought that I would get to see you play nurse on me.” he said and even though he was not smiling, his eyes reflected pure surprise at my action. I was surprised too. The moment I had gained consciousness, he was the only thing in my mind. I would have liked to call it basic humanity, but my concern for him felt more than that. I shook away the thoughts. Dominic said, “I have called Sky to bring a car here.” I nodded, “That’s good, given that your injuries need urgent attention.” “Worried about me?” he said playfully, but his eyes expressed so much more than that. I pressed my lips in a thin line, not wanting to answer to that. Neither could I deny nor did I wa
It was the same door. The corridor with the dark, wood-paneled walls stood in front of me, illuminated by the ceiling light, which shed a golden glow on the portraits hanging on the wall. This time, there was no fog and I took a step forward, inside.For an odd reason, my heart started to pace. There was something very eerie about this place. With each step forward, the corridor seemed to get longer and longer. Until it stopped in front of a giant black door. The door would have been veiled under the darkness, so dark it was, without the light hitting on its smooth surface.I went to the front of the door and before I could push it, my vision started to fade with black spots dancing in front of my eyes. The temperature around suddenly dropped and my body started to tremble.What was happening?!The air turned thin, and my body froze as if it was pressed under a lot of weight. Struggling to breathe, I gulped in a huge lump of air and my vision swirled back to the road in the middle of t
