I had been shoved into my room to stay there and think about what I had done. They all had their own theories running around. My aunt thought I was trying to run away with someone, but then he betrayed me, so I came back home wearing his coat.My mother thought I stayed in the woods, partied, and came back home just after I worried them enough. As for my uncle, he hasn’t expressed his opinion so far. My mother told me he would come to my room to sit me down and have a serious conversation with me.While I stayed in my bed, I made up my mind to tell my uncle all about Daxon’s nasty plans. I was aware he wouldn’t believe me at first, but bringing light to this subject would at least wary him of Daxon’s actions. He will begin to keep an eye on Daxon, just out of curiosity."If only I had his text conversation, I could have easily exposed him," I sighed, grumpily shaking my head because Daxon had wiped everything clean from my phone when he left me in the woods."It is okay, you are going
"What do I get to save your lovely ass tonight?" he whispered as he kept me closer to his chest. My body cringed before I put my hands on his chest and pushed him away from me."You should be ashamed of yourself for even considering anything like that," I yelled, retracting when he raised his hand to scare me. He gestured as if he was going to hit me, but then he smirked when a new plan sparkled through his mind."You make a noise, and I will tell them you tried seducing me. And you know very well that people will take my word over yours." He pushed me again when I tried to get my hands on him to shove him away from me. I landed on the floor with my butt hurting while I watched him stand between my legs."So here is how we will play this game. You will be a good little girl and let me have some fun with someone I like. As I said, I am saving your ass but for myself. I am just disappointed in how you don’t see all your problems disappearing when I accept you as my mate. You are of lega
Daxon dragged me out of the bathroom once he confirmed everybody else had left the room. He'd sat me in bed while pacing from one corner of the room to the other."I don’t believe this. You are lying to hurt me." When he stopped and finally opened his mouth, I acknowledged how dumb he was.He was seriously thinking I was saying all that just to make him jealous?"Why do you think I hit you in the crotch? Why do you think I lost my control and didn’t care what would happen to me afterwards?" I raised my voice, as his ignorance was getting on my nerves."I will do my own investigation. No way I am going to listen to you," he shook his head after giving thoughts to whether to believe me or not."Go ahead! You can do all you want. But you will be surprised when you know the truth," I said confidently. I didn’t mind him keeping an eye on us. At least that will help keep Uncle Charles away from me."But why are you telling me this all of a suddenly? How are you suddenly realizing that I lov
Our mother stared at us for a minute before she tore off to escape Serena’s angry glare. It was saddening that she acted completely different than when in front of Serena.Is that why I never saw anyone’s true colors? They always acted completely different from how they would act in front of Arlene. I shook my head as I felt guilty for being so dumb."Are you okay?" My sister’s voice was shaky and filled with agony: "I should have never put you in my bo---dy," I heard her let out a cry as she ran her fingers through my hair."I k---now what uncl---e Charles ha---d been doing to you?" I forced my weak body up from her lap and stuttered. She paused before she crawled away from me. It hurt my soul that she had to look down and fear my reaction when it wasn’t even her fault, to begin with."I --," she said, covering her mouth with her hands as if she was afraid to even talk about it."It is okay. It is no—t your fault," I said as I felt a stinging pain in the back of my neck. "I wi---ll f
"No, that’s not the truth. I mean, he did tell me my mom wants me to get married, but then he said he would not let it happen because he is keeping me for himself." I spoke up without moving my body too much. I had to explain it to him so that he would take my side, but obviously, he wanted to believe I was trying to fool him.Even if I were able to get up on my feet and move around, I would not. I would rather pretend to be very injured and prevent assault than get myself into trouble with him."Shut up! I should have never even believed you. Now stick in bed and think about how you are going to make amends with me. And oh! I am keeping your phone for now. No more text conversations or late-night calls with that Alpha King." He grabbed my phone from the table and slid it into his pocket."Rest assured, I will not let them marry you off to anyone else," he threatened and then turned on his feet to exit the room. Just when I thought I was headed in the right direction, I bumped into a
"This is wild. Do they not know you already have a mate?" Aunt Marrisa has been crying and begging Uncle Charles to tell the counsellors off, but he wasn’t going to do that. My sister had left for her room in tears since her body was going to be sold to the monster disguised as our father."Because they know I can handle two mates and even give her a shelter and maintain her," Uncle Charles responded calmly. We had taken this matter to the living room after everybody lost their appetite."I don’t agree with this. You cannot marry an 18-year-old. This is absurd. I will have a word with the counselors myself." Daxon, who never knew the difference between right and wrong, yelled as he shook his head aggressively.He didn’t like the idea, didn’t he?"I’m not ready to marry you." After I was done observing everyone’s reaction, I took a stand for myself. Daxon smiled proudly at me while Uncle Charles only smirked. Daxon may be feeling foolish for not believing me when I told him Uncle Charl
"Don’t act like you never knew my true intentions for your daughter." It was then that Charles didn’t hold back either. I met another shock when I heard him confess that my mother, too, knew about his dirty actions.I still gave her the benefit of the doubt, thinking maybe she just feared he looked at her daughter differently."I ---- yet you did this to me. I let you touch her. I even let you enter her room after she turned 18. It is not my fault that she struggled and fought you off. You promised if I let you have fun with her, you will marry me." The way my mother was talking about her daughter as if she were some sort of toy that she gave to Charles, made me throw up in my mouth."That was when she turned 18. I believe the very next night. You should have drugged her, but you couldn’t control her. Besides, I realized I wanted her to be my mate. However, I am not denying leaving you. We can carry on behind the scenes---," that discussion was churning. I wanted to get in there and b
"Hey!" I heard Reynard yelling when he spotted me sitting on the edge of the bridge and crying in my hands. I got up the instant I saw him approaching me. He had parked his car a little farther away so that he could look for me.I rushed towards him and landed in his arms. He was wearing a long black overcoat that he took off and wrapped around my body while hugging me tightly.I didn’t raise my face from his chest, and neither did I utter a word to him. I was in a lot of pain, crying, and traumatized."Hey! hey!" As he stroked his hand up and down my back, I sank deeper into his strong and comforting arms. His scent and mild heartbeat were able to soothe my soul."I am here now. Nothing and nobody will harm you," he whispered, tightening his arms around my body.After I stayed in his arms for a few more minutes and calmed down, he walked me to his car. I was in the passenger seat as he drove the car. I was defeatedly just looking at the road while resting my head back and letting sil
