Fatal Rules: The Alpha's Game Chapter 25: Inside the Mirror
“Come back here,” Alpha Calix said seriously. There was no mockery nor playfulness in his tone.I went closer to the mirror and put my hand on it to see if I could get through it but I only touched its surface like a glass. I tried to break it with two fists but I couldn’t.I thought I was dreaming? If someone could tell he was dreaming in his dream, then that could be lucid dreaming. And weren’t lucid dreams supposed to be easy since you could take control of whatever’s happening around you? Besides, wolf shifters’ minds were stronger than humans. It was rare for us to have such nightmares where we are trapped and powerless like this.Could it be that I never got back to the manor and got trapped inside the mirror in the maze? After all, the last thing I remembered, I went close to the mirror and felt like I was being pulled by a strong force before everything went black.“Get out of that fucking mirror, Loraine,” Calix ordered once again as if he couldn’t see me trying to get out. B
Fatal Rules: The Alpha's Game Chapter 26: Punishment
“You should stop Alpha Calix!” I looked at the woman, panicking. I couldn’t just let anyone suffer in my place when it was my carelessness that got me here. It was my fault and no one else should die for it.“I have no say in whatever is happening outside the mirror, nor could I refuse a soul if it’s thrown in here. The mirror has its own will, and that is to take every soul that goes through it.”“Then at least let me talk to him,” I pleaded desperately, watching Lucius stand aside while Bentley walked over the mirror pushing the poor maid. I bet they just got her from the mansion without letting her know that she would be killed for no reason.“Apparently, that is not possible.”“But Calix talked to me earlier from outside.”“Yes, he did. But the mirror only let him see you for a moment because he used some spell on it. But this relic is more than a thousand years old. It can manage its power so well that even a powerful alpha could not get through its barrier,” she explained. Her l
Fatal Rules: The Alpha's Game Chapter 27: Black Umbrella
The rumbling of the sky made me jolt from a shallow sleep. A flicker of lightning flashed across the garden before drops started to fall. I looked up, my face getting wet by the light rain that gradually turned heavy.Hugging my knees, I put my chin above it. It was unbelievably cold that I could feel myself shivering. My clothes got soaked but I couldn’t stop thinking how a person just died because of me. I knew Alpha Calix's evil nature was to blame but I admit I was at fault too. If I didn’t let my curiosity over something obviously dangerous take over me, I couldn’t have been sucked by the mirror.I remembered something like this happened back when I was young. I had this friend, Sasha, whom I really liked. I was ten and studying at the town’s school for wolf shifters. Dad had always reminded me to never go near the town’s borders, but one time, Sasha asked me if I could come with her at the riverbank near the border to look for her mom’s necklace she dropped when she went there w
Fatal Rules: The Alpha's Game Chapter 28: Under the Rain
“Get up,” Alpha Calix ordered.Why did he suddenly appear? I stared at him longer, thinking that maybe I was just under illusion that he came for me. Did the mirror’s power still affect me? Or maybe it was because I was getting dizzy. Wolf shifters had better immunity in all aspects compared to humans, but some of us couldn’t last in cold surroundings for long, especially someone as weak as me. Winter was nearing and it was evident in how cold I felt with my entire body soaked.“What? You want to die here?” his annoyed tone let me know that he was real. Illusion would be a little nicer, just like what I saw inside the mirror.I put my hand flat on the ground to push myself up. I slowly stood. My lips were shivering. Every nerve of my body was. After all, I had been staying outside for hours and an hour under the heavy rain.Thankfully, I managed to walk till we got inside. The shiny marble floor got wet and dirty. A maid gave Calix a towel without minding me. All of the servants must
Fatal Rules: The Alpha's Game Chapter 29: His Family
The sun had risen but the sky remained gloomy as the remnants of the heavy rain last night were still evident. Heading downstairs, I heard voices which didn’t belong to the maids. It didn’t take me long to know where the unusual noise came from. It was from Alpha Calix's Aunt Roselle and Sophie.“You, put that vase over there,” Roselle instructed the maid while the others were too busy obeying her whims to even notice me. Sophie was sitting on the long sofa, scrolling on her phone.As I stopped at the second to the last stair, the older woman drifted her gaze to me. Her lips tugged up a bit but her narrowing eyes didn’t leave her annoyance unnoticed.“You woke up late, dear Loraine. Sophie and I didn’t wait for you for breakfast. I hope you don’t mind,” her tone was quite friendly and I must say she had good acting skills. Maybe she joined the theater too? Or maybe did some acting lessons. No doubt she would make a good actress.“Of course, I don’t, Mrs. Voss,” I said, assuming that h
Fatal Rules: The Alpha's Game Chapter 30: Stranger in the room
I spent the rest of the day in my room, reading a book I picked up somewhere in the library. I didn’t join the two for lunch and had my meal sent over. Because obviously, they wouldn’t enjoy my company, nor would I.I slept during the afternoon. Yesterday was a tough day and I didn’t have a good sleep because I dreamt of the maid who was thrown in the Cursed Mirror. I could still remember the sound of her screams vividly. It haunted me.When I woke up after the same nightmare, it was five in the afternoon. I went for a warm bath to soothe my nerves and forget about it. After staying in the tub for almost an hour, I heard the door of the bathroom click and got alarmed.“Who are you?” I panicked. I couldn’t see the person on the other side because of the frosted glass dividing the bathroom.“Oh shit! I’m sorry, I think I got lost,” it was a man’s voice I wasn’t familiar with. Then there was a loud thud from the shutting of the door.I slipped on the full bathrobe and went to see who it
Fatal Rules: The Alpha's Game Chapter 31: We'll go hunting
“It was accidental-““So he did?” Alpha's eyes darkened.“I was on the tub. He didn’t see me. He immediately left when he knew someone was inside,” I reasoned out. It wasn’t something big deal but with his line of questions, I couldn’t help but get intimidated.“Why didn’t you even lock your door?”“I usually don’t lock my doors because the maids would always knock even when it’s open. Besides, I didn’t think any of the guests would wander around this part of the mansion.”“Get dressed,” he ordered before leaving the room.When I went downstairs, my jaw dropped upon seeing what a mess the main hall was. The maids were panicking in removing the decorations and putting back the things in their original places. Some guests had already arrived but Calix didn’t mind any of them. Roselle and Sophie were speechless on the side, couldn’t stand in front of Calix with the foul mood he was in.“I know you want to throw a party for me, dear Aunt Roselle, and I am truly touched by your thoughtfuln
Fatal Rules: The Alpha's Game Chapter 32: Prisoner in Asylum
The car stopped in front of an old dilapidated building in the middle of nowhere which looked like an abandoned asylum. It was rather creepy, especially with the tall trees and thick fog surrounding the place.“What are we going to do here?” I asked Alpha Calix when we were both out of the car.“I told you. We’ll go hunting.”My gaze went down to the pistol on his right hand. I swallowed hard. I had a bad feeling about this.“But why are we…” I stopped when someone from inside came out. A man in a black suit, must be in his late mid or late thirties.“Good evening, Alpha Calix. He is on the third floor, room 006.”Calix just nodded and started to walk. I had no choice but to follow him.On contrary to what I assumed, the building wasn’t abandoned and was clean inside. Pretty decent, even. There was no elevator so we had to walk our way up. There were a few people around who seemed to be Calix's employees because they bowed when they saw him, which made me think this might be Calix's s
