Nyx's pov"Get up!" His bark jolted me from my forced unconsciousness. I tried to raise my head but the throbbing pain wouldn't let me, my eyes were swollen shut and raw pain seared through out my body, I could still feel blood leaking from my wounds, my body felt Matty and sticky from the red liquid running on it, my blood, "I said get up!" He kicked me again.It wasn't Alpha Titan this time, it was one of the men that had abducted me I recognized the voice. I didn't budge as I couldn't summon the strength to even open my eyes which changed soon as hot boiling liquid was poured on me. I screamed in agony as the water met my wounds jumping up instantly in pain. My swollen eyes still clamped shut with tears escaping from the closed lids.He jerked me up, squeezing my arms and then he led me to a tub in the room which I hadn't realised was there. I was forced into the tub which already had water, I gritted from the effect it had on my wounds, the water turned red and dirty as I sank bac

Nyx's povI hissed in pain trying not to wail as the silver shackles burnt my flesh, searing through it creating fresh scars. New tears rolled down my cheeks as he brought the whip down again and again. I bit down on my lower lip closing my eyes as I tried not to cry out in anguish, that was what he wanted I couldn't give him the satisfaction."You broke my trust Nyx." He grimaced at me with a frown, "I fed you to a nice breakfast and treated you with less cruelty yet you ran away from me the moment I turned my back on you!" He threw the whip at me again and my body swung from the harsh impact, "If you had stayed put, I wouldn't have to treat you this way!"I didn't say anything to him. I just hung my head low in silence as blood seeped through my fresh wounds trailing down my body and falling in tiny droplets to the floor."You make me behave like a monster." He grunted before dropping the whip to the floor. He reached up freeing me from my shackles and I fell to the ground with a th

My mother growled as she and Willow stood guard pressing themselves against the door of Xerxes's chambers, "I don't think we can hold them off any longer." I looked at Nyx laying on the bed half awake, half asleep as Xerxes applied the healing potions on her. I fisted my hands taking in deep breaths as the urge to mate and mark her worsened, first, it was her heat scent driving me crazy and now the anger that came with the unmated wolves outside the door banging on it to claim my mate. She was clean now, traces of blood wiped away from her but her wounds were still fresh and she looked battered. She turned over, the shirt she wore which was mine ridding up her laps and I let out a primal growl, the urge to rip the shirt off her and mate with her till she bred grew worse. "Fuck!" I groaned as she opened her eyes and stared at me with those green orbs, her eyes call

Nyx's pov A sigh escaped my lips as I opened my eyes, my gaze met with the white ceilings. I felt warm and fuzzy all over, I felt different and sore too. I ached all over, not from my wounds but from Lycus taking me in unimaginable ways last night after the marking. It was like with each round his vigor increased.A throat clearing sound caught my attention and I looked sideways to see my mate beside me, his head was propped on one hand as he stared at me, his gaze unwaving. My cheeks tinted noticing that I was partly naked, the sheets were pulled down baring my chest and I immediately dragged them up earning a smirk from him.He didn't say a word, he moved his hand to my face, tucking my hair behind my ear, he caressed my face tracing the lines with his thumb, I love you, The words sounded in my head taking me aback and I blinked,"What?!" I questioned trying to know where the voice came from. I love you, It sounded again and the realisation hit me. We could mindli

Nyx's pov"You are not going in there alone!" His voice was stern with a hint of warning as he peered down at me, "Don't fight me on this Nyx.""I am going in alone Lycus." I stood my ground, equally matching his intimidating gaze, "He was my assailant not yours." I turned towards the door of the cell, "Stop treating me like I am some baby.""Hmm." Lycus turned me back to face him, he ran his thumb across my jawline, "You are a baby, my baby." He smiled as a small smile grazed my lips, "I will be here waiting for you, do not hesitate to mind link me if anything goes wrong." He dropped a small kiss on my lips before moving away from me and with a slight nod he signalled at the guard to open up the cell door. The huge metal door opened with a creak and gust of harsh wind blew from the opening as the door hit the other side of the wall with a clang. I tightened my fist as I walked in being slightly nervous and hoping that things wouldn't go wrong.The cell was dim, with a si
