SEBASTIAN'S POV. I stared at the rogue, watching his beaten and broken body heave with ragged breaths. His eyes were swollen and bloodshot, and his skin was a mess of wounds and burns. I had tortured him for hours, and yet, he still refused to tell me what I wanted to know. I was on the verge of killing him when he finally spoke."Your father killed Hailee's father," he gasped out, the words barely audible.My heart stopped. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. My father, the one person I had always looked up to, had killed someone. And not just anyone, but the father of the woman I loved. I felt a surge of anger and betrayal, and I knew that nothing would ever be the same again."What are you talking about?" I demanded, grabbing him by the collar of his shirt. "Tell me everything.""He killed him and took the crown," the rogue rasped out. "Hailee's the rightful Alpha, and she's coming for you. She wants what's hers."I felt my blood boil at his words. Hailee was a rogue, a liar, a
I was chained up in a dark, damp room filled with wolfsbane. It was burning my skin and making me feel weak. I tried to move but the chains were too tight, and I couldn't break free. I had been there for hours, maybe even days, I couldn't tell.Suddenly, I heard footsteps coming towards me, and I knew what was about to happen. Three men entered the room, and I could see the evil in their eyes. They were huge, and I could feel their stares on me as they made lewd remarks about my body. I was scared, but I refused to show it.They approached me, and one of them grabbed my arm roughly. I could feel his hot breath on my neck as he whispered disgusting things into my ear. I wanted to scream, to fight back, but I knew it would only make things worse.The other two men joined in, touching me in places that made my skin crawl. I could feel my anger boiling inside of me, and I knew I had to do something. I summoned all my strength and broke the chains that were holding me down.As the first ma
I was beyond relieved when I stumbled upon Hailee in the woods. She was weak and barely conscious, but I was determined to get her the help she needed. Without hesitation, I scooped her up in my arms and ran to the packhouse as fast as I could.When I arrived, I yelled for a doctor, and luckily one was nearby. He was an older man with gray hair and a kind face. He wore a white coat and carried a medical bag with him.I led him to Hailee and watched as he examined her. His hands were gentle as he felt for her pulse and checked her breathing. He then proceeded to administer a serum to counteract the effects of the wolfsbane.As the serum took effect, Hailee's breathing became more regular and her color returned to her face. She began to stir and open her eyes. I felt a sense of relief wash over me as I watched her come back to life.The doctor then proceeded to give her a thorough examination, checking her pulse, temperature, and other vital signs. He asked her a series of questions to
HAILEE'S POV.I lay in bed, staring at the ceiling, trying to calm my racing heart. Sebastian had come into the room and I couldn't help but scream. I knew he was the one who had me chained up and left to die, and now he was here, watching me. But as I screamed, he just smiled, and that smile made me more scared than anything else.He left the room, and I could hear his footsteps echoing down the hallway. I took a deep breath and tried to collect myself. I knew I couldn't let him see that I was scared of him. It was just a pretense, after all. The doctor had helped me play this game.I heard a knock at the door and the doctor entered the room. "Are you alright, Hailee?" he asked, concern etched on his face."I'm fine," I lied. "I just didn't expect him to be here so soon."The doctor nodded. "I understand. But you have to keep up the pretense. If he thinks you're scared of him, he'll have more power over you.""I know," I said, "but it's hard. He's so... intense."The doctor gave me a
HAILEE'S POV.I stood there in his office, frozen as Sebastian stood up from his desk and began to walk towards me. His face contorted into an evil scowl that made me take a step back, but I had nowhere to run.As he approached me, I could see the battle going on in his eyes. They kept changing colours constantly, and I knew that he was struggling to keep his wolf under control. I could feel the fear creeping up on me, but I refused to let it take over me.Suddenly, he snapped. His eyes turned an icy blue, and he locked out his wolf. He pinned me to the wall, his hands wrapped around my throat, choking the life out of me. I gasped for air, trying to pry his hands away, but he was too strong.I could feel the blood rushing to my head as my vision began to blur. My thoughts raced as I wondered if this was going to be the end. Was I going to die here, in his office, at the hands of a man who I had thought cared for me?I struggled to speak, my voice barely above a whisper as I begged for
I took a deep breath and tried to compose myself. I couldn't believe what had just happened. Sebastian had attacked me, and I had defended myself.As I walked through the halls, I couldn't help but feel a sense of paranoia. I didn't know who to trust or who was on my side. It felt like everyone was against me, and I was all alone. But I knew I had to stay strong and keep moving forward.As I burst into my room, my heart was pounding in my chest, and my mind was racing with fear and confusion. I was hoping that I would find some solace in the privacy of my own room, but as I opened the door, I saw Clara sitting there with a look of fury on her face. She looked like she was ready to kill me.The tension in the room was palpable as she just glared at me, her eyes burning with anger. I could feel the intensity of her gaze on me, and it made me feel like I was suffocating. I knew that she was furious with me for what had happened with Sebastian, and I didn't know how to make it right.Befo
It was Sebastian, ordering his guards to get the dogs ready to chase me. I couldn't believe it. How did he know what had happened between Clara and me? Did someone tell him?I stayed there for a while, hoping that the place would clear. My heart was racing and I could feel the sweat dripping down my forehead. I was scared and confused, and I didn't know what to do next.As I hid there, my mind raced with questions. Who could have told Sebastian about Clara and me? Did they know about the fight in my room? I felt like I was being watched and my paranoia began to take over. Was someone watching me right now?I knew I had to move, to get out of there before the dogs were released. I took a deep breath and tried to steady myself. With a final glance through the gap in the wall, I took off, running as fast as I could, praying that I wouldn't get caught.I crouched behind the bushes, my heart pounding in my chest like a drum. Fear had seized my entire being as I realized the gravity of my s
The guards continued to walk towards me, clearly cut out to deal with me even if it meant killing me. I knew that I couldn't take them all on at once, so I focused her attention on the guard closest to me. I delivered a swift kick to his gut, causing him to double over in pain. Before he could recover, I followed up with a powerful uppercut that sent him crashing to the ground.The other guards circled me warily, their eyes locked on my every move. I took a deep breath and prepared to fight back with everything had. I knew that this was my only chance to escape, and I wasn't about to let it slip away.As the guards closed in, I launched into a flurry of punches and kicks, each blow striking with deadly accuracy. I felt a surge of satisfaction with each hit, knowing that I was finally taking control of my own fate.Despite their numbers, the guards were no match for me. I moved with an almost supernatural grace, my movements precise and deadly. I struck them down one by one, my fists
