Isabella's pov I walked back to my room and asked the guard to wait outside. I slammed the door closed and grunted in anger, I was so angry.I looked at my hand, it was still trembling. That bitch Avery, I couldn't believe she could make me feel fear. She must feel so proud of herself right?! She must feel freaking high right now.That bastard, she was looking down on me, wasn't she? She …… arrrgh!!!!!!I smashed a vase on the ground but it did nothing to soothe my anger so I went into a rampage around the room. I climbed on the bed and ripped it to shreds. I screamed each time I inserted the scissors into the foam.I ripped the curtains, tearing them to shreds. I flung various things across the room. I was angry, my chest was heaving and my eyes were red. I felt hot, my blood was boiling and it was making me feel horny.Argh!!!!! I screamed once more. I didn't want Devon to see me like this, I can't have sex with him like this!!! But I need to vent this anger within me, I need to co

Lucien POV I stood on the balcony with Esme by my side, I had various thoughts going through my head. I was frustrated about Avery's situation, I couldn't get to her, I couldn't get any news about her.“Any news?” I asked Esme again for what seemed like the hundredth time and she patients relied,“Patience, alpha Lucien.”I sighed and nodded my head and I went back to looking at the sky. I found that I could calm myself down by staring at the sky, otherwise, I would probably be throwing a tantrum by now.It was probably because I felt like I was staring at my father, I had always found his presence calming and even now, I felt like he was with me always.I waited patiently, I and Esme were waiting for news from our torture department. After I had hit a dead end with Devon, I decided to take a much more unorthodox style. I wanted to plant a spy in his pack but it was too late to do that now so instead, I had captured a spy just yesterday and brought him back. I didn't want him to kno

Lucien's POVI walked through the forest, my senses were heightened as I looked for signs of any trail that Avery might have left behind.I had begun to track her down since I left my pack. I had no idea where she was but that didn't mean I was lost. I knew Devon was going to send his people to find her as soon as possible.With a few troubles, I managed to track down Devon's men. I didn't bother taking them down, my pack was going to do that. My top priority is to catch up to Avery.I stayed around them for a few hours, listening to any information they had about her whereabouts and the rest was pretty easy.After I found out about her general direction, I headed towards it and in a few hours I had caught a whiff of her scent. It had been particularly easy because she was my mate.When I finally laid my eyes on her, I felt my chest tighten. She looked so frail and her figure was haggard, her simple gown was torn and I could see bruises on her. She must have been through a lot. I sigh

Isabella's povI stormed into my room in anger, my chest was rising and falling and I was very mad.“What do you think you were doing provoking Alpha Devon!!!!” I shouted at Roan.“I'm sorry my queen, I just couldn't bear to watch him insult you like that.” He replied and I could see the panic in his face but right now I didn't care, I was furious at him and he needed to be punished.“LEAVE!!” I screamed at him.He looked at me in shock, his eyes welling up in tears. His expression became dejected when he noticed that I meant my words and he slowly turned around and left the room.I screamed in frustration and I stormed across the room. I felt mad that I didn't have anything to break, to throw across the room. Alpha Devon had made sure to warn me not to destroy my room again.That fool, what was he thinking getting in alpha Devon's bad side? Now he was going to be suspicious! Alpha Devon mustn't find out about me and Roan.Lately, he had become even colder than usual, we barely had an

Avery's povThe old man ran in front while I lagged behind, I was confused. Why did Alpha Lucien help me? Or was I just delusional and in actuality, he didn't give a fuck and just wanted to fight with alpha Devon.Yeah, that must be it, there was no way in hell that Alpha Lucien did that to help me, after all, he was one of the sources of my misery.But no matter the reason, if I had the opportunity, I had to thank him. I didn't want to owe him anything and I wanted absolutely nothing to do with him.My mind wandered to the old man, my eyes narrowed as I stared at him from behind. What if Alpha Lucien hadn't arrived, what if Alpha Devon had caught us?Moreover, I was more suspicious that Alpha Devon even appeared. That route was supposed to be a secret route and the fact that Alpha Devon had appeared to have been waiting for us meant he knew where we were headed.I wanted to question the old man but there was no time right now. After a while of running, we finally came to what looked
