Colton walks away and leaves me with my emotions to get into the other limousine. I plaster on a smile and step into the limousine I notice the wine and without hesitation I pour myself a glass and down it in one mouthful then quickly pour myself another. I notice the girls all staring at me until I pass the bottle along we manage to polish off two bottles before the short ride to the ball entrance on the other side of the pack. We really out done ourselves the pack hall looks phenomenal to one side laid out on a crisp white table cloth with a golden table runner is a buffet. The hall it’s self have all large and small sized balls hanging from the roof to the opposite side of the buffet is a sparkly gold back drop with photo props the glass wear is golden rimmed the round tables also have crisp white table cloths with gold sprayed logs with green foliage for the centre pieces the chair covers are gold the place looks amazing. The hall is filling fast with wolves on the hunt for their m
Delilah, Marisha, Alvin and I make our way back inside the first place we head to is the open bar I take the whole bottle of wine and don’t worry about the glass as I swig straight from the bottle the recent events playing over and over in my head I try to forget Colton rejecting his fated mate but can’t escape it I’ve now polished off the whole bottle and decide I should probably find Colton so we can have a talk. I leave the others to face colton on my own I don’t want to ruin their night anymore than what I have. I find Colton kicking rocks pulling at his hair out the front of the hall he senses my presence before I say a word and turns to look at me but the man staring back at me is broken and I feel responsible for that. “Why Colton why did you reject Sophia ! you knew how strongly I felt about you rejecting your mate” “And you knew how strongly I felt about you princess. Not once did you put a stop to us I fell for you and I fell hard you wanted us as much as I did so what’s ch
Chase and I climb down the ladder to the fort below us. We lay down to play twenty one questions chase pulls me closer Im snuggled into the side i him. Chase takes a big inhale of my scent as I ask my first question I waste no time getting into the hard questions. “How do you know Annie and Leon” “Stay away from Annie as much as possible somethings off about her”I search his eyes for a hint of a lie but chase appears to be telling the truth.“Well how do you know her” “ I stumbled across them two years ago in the woods living in a broken down cottage they were hungry and dirty now I couldn’t careless about Annie I could sense the dark aura around her from the start but Leon needed to be pried from her clutches so I offered them a job that way I could keep an eye on Annie and roster them so Leon had as little time possible with her”“How do you own a cafe at your age” “Uh-uh-uh it’s my turn now you don’t get two questions in a row” He looks at me with a grin I can see the love he
One of alpha Charles guards walks into my cell he unzips the back of my dress I’m facing Chase I can see him struggling with another male putting his hands on me but I give him a look of confidence a silent understanding between us both knowing we can’t let in that we are mates or things could get a whole lot worse if we can be used against the other for alpha Charles gain. Alpha Charles pulls a lever on the outside of my cell which lowers the silver chains im placed in the silver chains while they are uncomfortable I’m not too effected by the silver as part of my training I built a resilience up to silver but I do not let that on. As soon as I’m hoisted up the man stands behind me with the whip while alpha Charles tells me I am to count out the lashings. I focus my gaze on alpha Charles with a smirk on my face. The whip it’s my back it can feel as the skin splits apart on impact it burns my back feeling as though it on fire I make sure to keep my head held high I will not give alph
I wake in the morning to the sound of bars clanging two guards are taking Marina out of my cell back to her cell next to mine. They also have a silver meal cart coming through the cells pushing trays through the gap in the cells solely for that purpose. To my surprise it’s a decent breakfast of bacon eggs and toast it all seems warm and fresh. I give the tray of food a big sniff this seems to good to be true but amazingly it’s just food no poison or anything else one might expect. “Eat up child you will need your strength” “I can’t say I was expecting a decent meal”“Ohh everyone down here gets fed well half of them down here are used as blood bags and require nutrients or they may die while unwittingly giving blood” “Thanks Marina I have lost my appetite. What a sick sad man” “Bat shit crazy more like it” comes a man’s voice across the cells.Chase let’s out a thunderous growl to which the man laughs.“Chase you should know better if alpha Charles gets wind of your possessive beh
The minds cogs were turning a million questions running through my mind. Marina is a vampire and alpha Charles is a wolf that would make Chase the first hybrid in centuries it would also explain why his eyes would glow the unusual red it was the vampire in him not a demon possession as people had wrongly thought. It would also explain the speed of chase he was fast even by werewolf standards. “So chase is the first hybrid in centuries is that another reason you are kept in the cells” “Partly no one knows who alpha Charles or chases mother is most presume she was an omega who died during childbirth outside of the pack of course” Chase scoffs at his mothers words I can feel through the bond how agitated and uncomfortable he is right now.“We don’t have to have this conversation Chase I’m sorry I just want to try to understand you understand what you have been through”“If you want to know what I’ve been through princess just ask. It would not be much better than the rumours that trav
Alpha Charles guards sniggered at his command I knew this was not going to be any good. I also know I must keep my abilities a secret if I’m going to be tortured I must keep my emotions in check. One of the guards walked in and cuffed me to the hoist I was hung by the cuffs so my feet were unable to touch the floor by then the other guard pushed the trolley in with clamps, pliers, knives, hatchets, cigar cutters, hammers you name it it was on the damn trolley. I would be lying to myself if I said I wasn’t scared because at this moment I felt the most vulnerable I had in my life. I could not stomach looking at Chase one look at him I’m sure I would lose the strength I had mustered up. Alpha Charles starts in lightly with a full force punch to my stomach while looking at chase.“Do you still want to define my orders boy”Chase remains silent I keep my head held high I will not give him the satisfaction of seeing me break alpha Charles then round house kicks me to the same spot on my sto
My legs are like jelly being hoisted in the air by my arms so long it’s hard to stand back on my legs. Marina rushes to my aid as she power walks over to the shower turning it on and adjusting the temperature before making her way over to me. Marina lifts me up and wraps one of my arms around her shoulder and carry’s me over to the shower the weirdo asks he can watch me shower which earns him a warning growl from chase. “ keep talking to her like that and I will rip your tongue out and force you to eat it the first chance I get” “Whoa aren’t you just a ray of fucking sunshine” The newbie pulls a cigarette from behind his ear and asks if anyone has a lighter. I block out anything said after that focusing on Marina who is now removing my clothes to give my wounds a wash now that I’m out of the silver cuffs I’m healing a lot faster the pain is still very much present but a lot more tolerable so to speak. She grabs some clothes and a towel dries me off and changes me and carry’s me ove
