I turned my head and looked at the Alpha, trying to ask him why Kristen was dead. Did they come late? Or, did they just rescue me in time? However, the Alpha’s face was cold as ice. I even felt that he hated me to the core in that instant. He had never looked at me that way. He was always kind to me as far as I could remember. “Lindsay Blackwood, Gamma Jen’s daughter, brutally murdered my sister, Kristen. Is there anything else you want to say before the judgment is served?”

Prologue
The wind brushed past my skin like blades. Kristen, my best friend, and I were running frantically through the thorny briar. Kristen was exhausted. But we could not stop! I had to get her out of the forest. We must not die at the hands of the Rogues. Rogues’ howls and their footsteps were close behind, making my heartbeat pumping in my ears. I saw my mother waving at me from the forest's periphery. She was Gamma. She would put down the Rogues for sure. Kristen stumbled all of a sudden. “Help me! Help me!” My best friend, Kristen, grabbed the hem of my shirt, crying desperately for help. I fell to the ground. My legs were hot and in pain as the withered branches scraped against them. I tried hard to get up, but I couldn’t because she was holding me back. My mother was less than a mile away from me. We were so close to safety! The unpleasant smells on the Rogues were getting closer, but there was nothing I could do. Those unfamiliar, hideous faces were magnified abruptly in my

Chapter 1
Lindsay's Pov The dungeon was dark and damp with rats running around all over the ground. The walls were covered with moss, and the air smelled of rotten flesh. I had been locked up here for three days. I hadn't had a drop of water for the past three days. My body was weak. My wolf had fallen into a slumber. She had drained her energy to heal me. I held my legs and huddled up in the corner in my bloodstained white tracksuit. My brown hair withered like weeds, and my smooth, firm skin was full of ugly wounds. Most of those wounds were done by the guards in the dungeon. They tried to rape me more than once because I was beautiful, but they had underestimated me. In addition to my beauty, my fighting abilities should not be taken lightly. Although I was severely injured, I beated the hell out of them. I leaned against the wall and closed my eyes. I needed a rest so that I could save my energy fortheir next round of attacks. The wounds started to throb again. I bit my low

Lindsay's PovSmack!A loud slap landed on my face, knocking me to the ground right away.The slaps made me dizzy and sick.My cheeks were sore and hot, and I could not help coughing and retching.The Alpha looked at me coldly and did not take my explanation seriously at all.He grabbed me by the neck and pinned me against the wall.“How dare you touch Kristen?! I raised my sister like a princess, and you killed her for a spot in the varsity?”The man grimaced, and his voice was icely cold.He did not even listen to my explanation. He just wanted to vent his anger at me.The wound on my back hurt even more under his assault. The Alpha gradually tightened his grip. I was suffocating, and it felt like all my senses were being cut off.My face turned reddish purple with veins bulging on my forehead.I was certain that he would strangle me to death in no time.He suddenly released his grip right before I black out.I slid off the wall, collapsed to the ground, and coughed violently.It w

Lindsay's PovI smelled the intense scent of tequila along the way.I looked at this man sideways. I wasn’t sure if he was my mate.If he was my mate, why had he not responded to to my approach?“How long are you going to look at me like that?” he asked coldly.I quickly turned my head and closed my eyes.The man pulled over to the roadside. Now we were in the territory of the Silver Claw Pack.There was a cabin nearby.I had been saved, but it was not any good news worthed celebrating.“Follow me if you don’t want to die.” He got out of the vehicle and walked toward the cabin.I had no other choices than followed him.The door was opened with a beep. The man stepped into the house and turned on a light.I stood still holding tight in the doorway, looking round the room The man sneered as he stood in the middle of the living room, “What are you afraid of? I could’ve killed you just now if I wanted to harm you. Why would I have waited?”I still did not move.“Come, if you still want t

Lindsay's Pov“Why are you here?”I freaked our and covered my chest with my hands.When Bishop saw that, he sneered. “This is my house. You better figure out what situation you’re in right now.”He was right. I was just a Rogue now. The only reason I survived is he showed mercy and saved me.I was at this person’s mercy to have a place to stay right now.“So, why did you save me?”Bishop smirked. “Don’t you know?”He walked over to look down at me. He was so much taller and I felt the pressure.I could clearly smell the tequila scent he has again. It was undeniably intense.“What are you going to do?” I looked at him warily.Bishop smiled. He then suddenly pushed me down on the mattress, trapping me between it and him.He asked, “What do you think I’m going to do?” I could feel his hair brushing on my forehead. He was getting too close.He fixed his amber eyes right on my collar.His scent enveloped me tightly.I could feel the heat of his chest through the air.I was embarrassed an

“Can you be any more shameless?” I asked.Bishop leaned against the door, and the black fabric slipped out of my hand.He looked at me indifferently with his arms crossed.After a while, he suddenly closed the kitchen door and pinned me against the stove.He was so close to me, hot breath spreading on my cheek, making me jump a little bit.I struggled desperately, but couldn't shake him off in the slightest.“Stop messing around!” I said hurriedly.His lips were curved into a wicked smile, and his eyes were flickering with a bizarre glow.A fragrant sweet scent flowed in the air.He bent down, and his thin lips almost touched mine. He then said coldly, “This is what you call shameless.”I shuddered in fear.He snickered and let go of me. “But I don’t have a habit of forcing people. The decision is yours.”I clenched my fists as rage burned more and more vigorously in my heart.Tears welled up in my eyes as I bit my lower lip.“Alright.”My voice was so low that I could not even hear m

Chapter 6
Lindsay's PovI ignored Bishop and walked toward the coffee table.“Don’t make me say it twice,” he warned again, his voice echoing in my mind.I put Jude down and wanted to sprint upstairs after taking a few deep breaths.A man suddenly grabbed my arm and dragged me into a room.“Ahh!” Just as I was about to scream, I smelt a familiar scent.“Shut up. It’s me.”Bishop’s voice. It was him.I turned my head and glared at Bishop. “Are you nuts?”His face darkened as if a storm was coming. The look on his face scared me, but I pretended to be calm.“What do you want from me?” I asked.He handed me a document.“Sign it,” he said indifferently.It was that agreement again.I flew into a rage. “I’ve already promised you. There is no need to sign this ridiculous contract.”What on earth was this? Selling myself?He grunted coldly. “It’s better to have everything written down in papers lest you harbor unnecessary expectations.”Unnecessary expectations?I sneer. This man was very good-looking

Chapter 7
Lindsay's PovI marveled at this tiny black card in Bishop’s hand. I did not expect this bastard to give me so much money because of a somewhat agreement.But I would not accept that.I would never allow him to step on my dignity.“I don’t want it.” I shook my head.A trace of shock flashed in his eyes. He suddenly pinned me down, my back being slammed hard against the door.“Are you sure? There are half a million dollars in it.”I looked at him defiantly. “I’m not selling myself. If it weren’t for Kristen, I wouldn’t have signed this contract of yours.”After saying that, I pushed him away.Before I turned around and left, he said, “Remember to keep our secret from Carmen.”“I know.” I walked out of the room without looking back.After returning to my room, I finally felt relieved.I would have a better chance of winning with Bishop’s help.After all, he was the son of Silver Claw Pack’s Alpha.Judging from the way he generously handed out that black card, the Alpha probably cared a

Chapter 8
Lindsay's PovI slowly raised my head and stared at Bishop.“I don’t know... I got lost.” I looked at him with an innocent look.“Fuck!” he cursed lowly, then lifted his long leg and got off the motorcycle.I fell to the ground out of fear.The mockery and annoyance in Bishop’s eyes became more obvious.“Get up!” He suddenly held out his hand to me.I looked at him, shocked. To my surprise, he was trying to pull me up.“Hurry up,” Bishop said coldly.I put my hand in his palm hesitantly and rose to my feet clinging on him.Bishop yanked me over to the motorcycle and handed me the helmet. “Put it on.”“Huh?”Bishop frowned. He put the helmet on my head and fastened it.Then he took Jude away from my arms and placed him right into his jacket pocket.Jude struggled for a brief while, but he quickly froze up after Bishop shot a glare at him.He then started the motorcycle. “Get on.”I moved slowly and got on the motorcycle, fearing that I would anger him further.“Hold tight.”“Huh?”He t

Chapter 9
Lindsay's PovI did not go out that day.The wounds on my body had not fully healed yet, and some areas were festering because of the rain yesterday.I needed enough rest so that my wolf could heal me within a short amount of time.So... I spent all morning sleeping on the couch with Jude in my arms. I did not even eat lunch.My eyes snapped open when I heard the rapid buzzing of the doorbell. I opened the door and saw a woman in her forties or fifties.“Hi. You are—?”“I’m the housekeeper for the scheduled cleaning.”I nodded and stepped aside to let the housekeeper in.As I was sitting on the couch watching TV, suddenly, a scream came from upstairs.I rushed into the bedroom. The panicked housekeeper looked at me.Next to her feet was a broken photo frame.This was Bishop’s bedroom, so the framed photo—I guessed it was probably a photo of him and his mother when he was a child.The housekeeper was trembling with red-rimmed eyes.“What should I do? This is his most treasured item. I
