NICOLAS…
I nod my head in her direction and say to Fredrick,
“That’s her, the one in the midnight black dress that looks like it has been soaking in the stars.”
I flick my eyes from Annalise over to Fredrick and don’t miss how his eyes go wide when he finds her in the crowd. He then says,
“Wow, Bro. She is something and I haven’t even approached her yet.”
I know how he feels and I know why, everyone is drawn towards a descendant daughter of the Moon Goddess. It is just how they are. However, there is something off about her tonight.
Fredrick removes his hand from my shoulders and then straightens, fixing up his suit before stepping out of where we were talking. I watch as he slowly made his way around the room until he made it round to where Alpha Randall and Annalise were standing.
I see Randall bow his head and Annalise does a little awkward curtsy as he still refuses to remove his hands from her. I watch as
ANNALISE…I am brought back to Randall and what he is doing as I hear material tear. I then feel his hands on the bare skin of my thigh as he slides it up until he reaches my panties. He grabs the piece that sits on my hip and pulls, ripping it from my body, making me whimper a little from the material digging into the skin on my other hip and inner thigh before it actually gives and rips.Even as I feel the burning of the slave mark on my shoulder, I fight and struggle against him, as I say,“NO! Get off, I will no longer let you do this to me…”Again, he just seems to chuckle as he manages to force his knees between my legs. He then leans forward, stopping just before his lips touch mine, and smirks,“You have no choice… MATE!” The sound of Hugo sends a shiver of fear through me but after tonight and the realisation that the pup was indeed Mr Nightmoon’s
RANDALL… I have always suspected that he had a crush on her, as he never found his mate. I then turn to Virion and say, “Virion, you stay here just in case Annalise managed to get away from them and come back here. Wallace, you're with me. She was heading in the direction of that creek just outside the Northwestern border.” Virion wasn’t happy, but he followed my orders as Wallace and I ran into the woods. We didn’t shift and about halfway to the spot on the creek, Wallace says, “You weren't ambushed, and she didn't run from others. She ran from you, didn't she?” I sigh. I have to tell him the truth, to let him know how important it is that we find her. I just hope he doesn't push his old position of protecting her, or the consequences for him may not be good.“She did. However, Wallace, we need to find her." "What's the urgency of having to find her? She is a wolf... Wait, Randall, what have you done?" "I... I... She’s been in the containment cell…” Wallace was one of the few
NICOLAS… I follow him to the car but I am not quick enough to stop him from throwing Annalise into it or stop him from getting in and then stopping the car from pulling away. I stand on the curb and watch as the rear lights disappear down the road. I thought about calling for my car and following until my phone goes off in my pocket. Against everything in me, I take one more look down the street before pulling my phone out of my pocket, flipping it open and placing it to my ear as I say, “Alpha Nightmoon.” “Alpha, I have it…” “Randolf?” “Yes, Alpha. I have what you need to get Annalise away from Alpha Remington.” “Really? Did he really document everything?” “Yes, but I also have one better.” “Randolf? What did you find?”
THIRD PERSON… Amity knows that she knows too much for Randall to allow her to leave, so she knows that this is the only way she would ever have a chance to be free with her mate. Virion rubs his palm hard on his chest as he still feels the sudden separation from Wallace pulsing there. He then looks at Amity and says, “I only stayed for Wallace, he was my mate but because Randall doesn’t like males with other males unless they are with him sharing a couple of females, we never sealed the mate bond between us but we never rejected each other either, being close to each other was enough however with him now gone... I have nothing here. May I go with you?”Amity looks at Randolf who nods his head, knowing how good of a warrior Virion is, he knows that Nicolas will accept him into the pack with no problems. Randolf then asks,“Of course. Did you need to get anything?”“No. I only have clo
ANNALISE… I watch as he stands, and a shiver goes through me at the roughness of him and his voice as he says, "Now that's better. Who are you? What happened to you? Why and what are you doing in our pack lands?" I don't answer him, still shocked that someone other than Randall hit me. I guess it is something I will have to now get used to, especially after they find Randall's mate and slave mark. Thankfully, the marks don't tell them who I'm mated to or belong to, it just tells them that I am a mated sex slave. Being mated even as a slave is meant to keep other males away unless given permission, however, some males don't care and just help themselves. If this Beta hitting me is anything to go by for this pack, then I may be in a lot of trouble. When I continue not to answer, he growls low and goes to take a step forward, but stops when the warrior behind him steps up next to him and whispers something into his ear. I watch his eyes go wide as he looks at me and listens to the w
ANNALISE… I collide with Owen, who is still on the ground, being dramatic, whimpering and holding his privates. I then slide across the floor until I hit the wall. I whimper at the impact as pain explodes through me. The Beta then says, "So it seems you may have been telling some truth, that you were not always a slave, but you are one now, whether you like it or not." Owen and Simon are now back on their feet and before they go to grab me they both kick me once instead, knocking the wind out of me, allowing them to then lean over me and grab an ankle each before then pulling me over the ground so that they stop with me in the centre of the cell once again. Even through the pain, I struggle against them as they pull me along the floor. As soon as they stop, I try to pull my ankles from their grip and sit up. Simon surprises me and lets go of my ankle, only to move around me enough to then slap me across the face, kno
ANNALISE… *BEEP* *BEEP* --- *BEEP* *BEEP*I groan as I hear that continuous annoying ‘BEEP’. I try to open my eyes and it feels like there is something heavy weighing them down. It is similar to the rest of my body, only I stop moving as soon as I try when a wave of pain spreads through me.So I fight the urge to move more and focus back on opening my eyes. It took a little, but I managed to open them just a little and look around. Now I know I am not in my pack as even if he beat me to the point where I needed medical treatment, it was always done in his or my room.As soon as I see the white walls, I know I am in a hospital. As the heaviness slowly disappears and the pain is a little more manageable, I slowly start to move. I lift my left arm and see that there is an IV drip attached, so I lower it once more. I then lift my right and notice that there is a light blue cast starting from the middle of my forearm to the
ANNALISE…I nod my head and then move slightly, ignoring the pain as I bring my knees up and I wrap what I can of my arms around them. When I don’t say any more, he then continues with his questions.“How long have you been a slave?”I don’t answer him,“When did the abuse start?”I still don’t answer him as it would be admitting that I had allowed him to do this to me, to treat me like he did. That, even though I knew it wasn’t right, I didn’t fight back. He was my Alpha, but more than that he was my mate, or so I had thought…I don’t hear any more of his questions as I lower my head to my knees and sob. My father would be so ashamed if he saw me now if he saw what I had become. He had started to raise a proud, confident and robust daughter and yet here I am and I couldn’t even stand up to my mate and stop what he would do to me.I was surprised when I look up next there was no one in the room with me, whatever was in that IV and the extra sleep that I had after I had passed out must
