5 days passed...Emma was sitting on the bare floor and her head was placed between her legs. Her eyes were red as she had cried her eyes out. "Diego, please be safe." These were the words she had been chanting for days. Her prayers to the Moon Goddess never seized. A few seconds later, there was a knock on the door and a maid opened the door."Good day, ma'am." The maid greeted. Emma raised her head as soon as she heard the maid's voice. It was the same maid that she had given the letter to.However, there was a tacit understanding between them not to talk about the letter."Are you okay?" Emma asked, in concern. For a moment, she thought that the maid had gotten into trouble. She knew the maid had delivered the letter but she didn't get to ask about Diego."Yes, I'm alright, ma'am." The maid said, with her hands placed before her."The Alpha has summoned you." The maid added as she was not in Emma's room because of the letter. "Really?" Emma asked, her eyes widening slightly. S
It was dark and dingy and Emma had been lying on the cold and dirty floor of the dungeon for hours.Her clothes were torn and her face was swollen. The guards had thrown her to the floor violently on her face. Immediately she hit the floor, she passed out cold."Hmm..." She groaned with her eyes closed. It had been hours since she had passed out. As soon as her eyes started to open up, she felt pain shoot through her body. Immediately, her eyes snapped open and her head banged.For a moment, Emma didn't know where she was and it was dark in there.She heard a light squeak and a scrape on her arm and she jolted from the floor."Where am I?" She asked, in a low voice. She then tried to stand up but she felt dizzy and fell to the floor again. The squeaky sounds became louder and she realized there were rats in there."Hello...is anyone there?" She asked, in a shaky voice as she was starting to get scared.Her eyes tried to see through the darkness and she noticed there were iron bars
The rays of sunlight shone through the window and Diego who had been sleeping peacefully on the bed jolted up.His eyes were troubled and his breath was heavy. Slowly, his hand crept onto his chest as he felt a sharp pain in his heart."Hmmm..." He groaned, with his eyes shut. His body shook and he felt like countless needles were piercing his skin. "What's wrong?" He asked himself and stood up to his feet. His eyes looked out of the window and he had an inkling of what was going on. Slowly, he walked toward the window, however, the pain in his heart had not diminished in the slightest.There was nothing that caused him pain and he didn't want to believe the thought in his head. "Do you know what's wrong, Wolfie?" He asked his wolf. However, he only received a groan. It turned out that Diego's wolf could also feel pain. "My mate!" His wolf said, after some time. They both longed for their mate and Diego realized that he was feeling Emma's pain. His hands tightened around the wi
There was a loud sound of metals clashing and Emma was startled. The guard from earlier had a baton in hand and he used it to bang against the metal rays."Hmm..." Emma groaned as she tried to sit upright. She had been laying on the dungeon floor for days. She couldn't get a wink of sleep. Her eyes were red and swollen at this point and all she could think of was Diego.She didn't know if she was dead or not. Every night she had spent in the dungeon was filled with pain.Her body radiated with pain, however, she still had to endure."Stand up!" The guard ordered as he pulled the door open. Surprisingly, he had a small bowl in hand which contained food for Emma."It's time to eat. You got so lucky that the Alpha is concerned about you." He said and quickly placed the bowl beside Emma.At this point, Emma was resting on the wall with her eyes closed. She could hear and feel the guard's presence. She could also perceive the scent of food, however, she couldn't bring herself to eat.As
There was silence in the dungeon immediately after Audrey finished his words. His eyes showed anger which caused Emma to shiver.However, his words didn't seem to freak her. Her heart was still set on Diego, no matter how he had treated her."Your words cannot change anything now, Audrey." Emma said, looking up at him with a small smirk on her face."Why...?" He asked, in an almost pained voice. For a moment, he was tempted to take Emma right there in the dungeon. He was still attracted to her even though she looked unkempt."You are not my mate! You are not Diego! You're not the one I love and you will never be!" She affirmed, looking straight at him."Damn it!" Audrey cussed as he banged his fists on the wall again and again.His continuous violent contact with the wall caused his hand to split and blood started to drip out.Emma was a bit scared at the sight of his blood but she chose to keep her mouth shut. There were other thoughts going on in her head."I'll be right back! You s
The door to the dungeon was pulled open and a ray of light shone on Emma.She had been laying on the floor, in darkness, and in the next second her eyelids fluttered.There were light footsteps and Emma furrowed her brows as she opened her eyes slowly, trying to get used to the light."Hello, sleeping beauty..." Audrey's voice rang out in the air. His eyes shone with delight seeing Emma again. Slowly, he bent toward her and touched her chin."Get your hands off me!" Emma screamed, swatting his hand away immediately she felt his touch. "Don't touch me!" She said, as she sat upright and scurried away from Audrey.A look of pain and disappointment flashed across his face but before Emma could detect it, his expression turned back to normal."Why? You are literally mine now!" Audrey said, with a smirk.His eyes contained hidden emotions that Emma couldn't decipher.Slowly, Audrey looked around and a frown started to mar his face.There was a heavy scent of blood in the air. Blood from p
It had been days since Audrey had told Emma that Diego would die.She paced around the dungeon with bare legs, limping.The dungeon was wet and dirty but she didn't care. She was greatly concerned about Diego. There was slight movement from outside the dungeon and her head snapped to look outside.Her eyes widened in expectation, thinking Mia the maid was coming to see her.However, a few seconds later, a mouse ran through the iron bars toward Emma and she screamed, "Ahhhh."She jumped as the mice ran past her legs and she fell to the ground with a loud thud.She had been staying in the dungeon for weeks and she still had not gotten used to the number of mice that ran around.She was deathly scared of them!"What's going on in there?" The guard stationed outside yelled and Emma shook. "It's nothing..." She was quick to say as she didn't want the guard to come into the dungeon.She didn't want to get whipped mercilessly again."Better! You better sit still. I don't noise." The guard
As he walked out of the dungeon, the guards looked at the duo with surprise. They had never seen Audrey treat a person with so much care. Not even the Luna, Stephanie."What do you think is going on?" A guard asked, discreetly. However, he was heard by Audrey. On normal grounds, he would lash out at the guards if they said something out of line. But then, Audrey was in a good mood."My love has agreed to be mine!" Audrey said out loud and the guards were stumped. The proud expression on his face was glaring.On the other hand, Emma was ashamed. She was too weak to get away from Audrey and she could only bury her head in his chest in shame.Soon, Audrey was out of the dungeon and as he walked down the hallway, the maids and other guards in the Packhouse stared in astonishment.They were aware of what had been going on in the Pack ever since Emma was kidnapped.However, Audrey was in a good, so he didn't reprimand anyone.Soon, he was in his bedroom and proceeded to lay Emma on his bed
