Saving Sarah
Heartbroken Sarah makes an impulsive decision to become a nun all against her father's advice, but due to her adamance, she unfortunately finds herself trapped in a human-trafficking underworld disguising as a convent.
Having being noted for her inquisitiveness, feistiness and defiance by those in charge, she was selected as the ultimate price to be auctioned off to the highest bidder of buyers consisting of dangerous men and women in illegal businesses who often patronized the 'convent'.
Whilst secretly plotting an escape with her friends, Sarah runs smack into Stefano Franchetti, an infamous Mafia Lord who is feared and respected by all. Unable to decipher why exactly he's drawn to her, it became his mission to keep her from the other predators after outbidding his arch enemy and adversary, Guiliano, who is rather obsessed with her and was determined to get her at all cost to fulfill a long overdue fantasy, even if it meant annihilating Franchetti first.
But Guiliano didn't have to do much since Sarah who was determined to still escape to freedom from the supposed protection of Franchetti would rather make his life a living hell until he's forced to give her up.
But could he give her up after she had innocently managed to worm her way into his cold heart despite the fact that she was pushing him to the point where he'd rather put her over his knee to instill some manners on her?

Chapter: 11 - Impending doom“I see your roommates haven’t told you yet.” Gladys offered a sly smile, having read her thoughts. “But don’t worry, as time goes on, you’ll come to find out what this place really is. You will eventually get to see things for yourself.”“Well, I can assure you that I wouldn’t wait around too long to find out whatever it is, and as for Armo or whatever you call him, he can go to hell for all I care. I’m not going to sit back and fold my arms in despair like all the rest of you. The last thing I would do is result to being a sitting duck. My mind is made up and I’m gonna find a way out of this place at all cost.”Gladys seductively bit her lower lip with a flirty smile mixed with admiration on her face. “We haven’t had one with guts like you in here for a very long time, Sarah, and I like your determination but trust me, it will be short-lived.” As she turned and continued down the

Chapter: 10 - No escapeTwo weeks later, Sarah restlessly paced the room, deep in thought. Yin watched her with interest but said nothing. Anita was about to say something when the door opened. Gladys stepped into the room and smiled when she saw Sarah who stopped just at that moment to look at her."Just the person I'm looking for!" Gladys cheerfully said to Sarah quickly regarded all the sisters with a flitting glance but they all averted their gazes except Sarah who continued to stare at her, wondering what she wanted. "You have been summoned." Gladys finally told her.Sarah frowned. "Yeah, just exactly what I wanted too. I need to speak with the Abbess, anyway.""Is all well?" Gladys asked, her smile waning a bit in concern.Sarah glanced at the other sisters who were just too quiet to a fault and she wondered why they always acted otherwise around Gladys. When she noticed that they weren't going to say anything to help her situation, she gave up and blurted out to Gladys. "I need explanations!"Gladys r

Chapter: 9 - The warning"Silence!" They were suddenly interrupted by the harsh voice of mother Felicia, the Abbess, from above. She was actually referring to all the nuns.Dead silence immediately engulfed the hall as Mother Felicia with Gladys standing right behind her, appeared on one of the small balconies above overlooking the dining room. She placed her chubby hands on the concrete banister and stared down at the women with solemn eyes. "I am sorry to announce that we have just lost four of our sisters! Sister Ann, Sister Megan, Sister Louis and Sister Pat." She announced, her voice devoid of any feeling of sympathy nor grief.At the far end of the dining room, a single sob could be heard from one of the sisters who must have been close to one of the dead sisters, but Mother Felicia who paused to tame her with a scornful gaze, continued indifferently after the sister had comported herself. "They were caught trying to flee the Abbey last night..." She smiled sinisterly. "...and as the lor

Chapter: 8 - Something oddSarah left the room with the other nuns. She was already dressed in her own uniform. Much to her relief, the strange trio had finally stayed off her when she had slept off and had only woken her up when it was time to go down for dinner. The dining hall was large but quaint and the ceilings were so high.It reminded her of the dining hall Harry Porter and his fellow students had their own meals. The three sisters quietly led her to a spot on one of the long benches after collecting their trays of food which they sat down close to the edge of the long table, with two each sitting on opposite benches across from each other. It was like living the life of a prisoner in a crowded room, but Sarah didn't mind much.She was however stuck with Yin sitting beside her while Anita sat across from her. The cheeky Asian offered her a smile before they all began to eat. While eating, Sarah scanned the room curiously. There were almost three hundred nuns in the large hall all dressed in black. She

Chapter: 7 - Four nunsAfter the tiring tour, Sister Gladys led Sarah to one of the sleeping quarters where several of the nuns inhabited. After walking down the deserted hallway, they approached the door of a room. Sister Gladys knocked then entered the room without hesitating. Sarah followed, finding herself in a large room containing four bunk beds of which only three of the beds were obviously occupied by different women.The women who were quiet and immersed in reading, looked up from whatever catholic books they were reading to curiously stare at them. The women were clad in the same casual clothes, more like plain sleeping gowns they wore in their leisure time, but it was still uniformed. One of the women slipped off the top bunk and approached them with a smile."Sister Gladys?" She said with an inquiry look fixed on SarahSister Gladys half-turned to regard Sarah as she spoke to the woman. "This is Sarah, she's new. Mother has instructed me to inform you ladies to make her co

Chapter: 6 - Something amissThere were just so many obvious reasons for her to turn back now while she still could but when she thought about Helen and Fred, she pursed her lips firmly, trying to do away with any discouraging thought that kept popping up in her mind.She just wasn’t sure if she could cope with this new lifestyle. What if she regretted it? What if she chickened out halfway and wanted to leave, would they let her? She pondered. Most of her life, she had mostly donned pants, shorts, short and snug gowns, cropped tops, high heels and other expensive accessories but it seemed she won’t be getting any of that luxury here for none of the nuns seem to have any jewelry on, not even wristwatches or earrings. She would have to look bland for the rest if her life.This wasn’t what she had really signed up for and she was very skeptical about giving it a try. Being a nun came with surrendering her life totally to God and giving up the pleasures of the world. S

Chapter: 22 - Amphisbaena"What's the Amphisbaena?" Theresa who had risen from her chair and had watched the couple in concerned silence, finally asked, unable to contain her curiosity any longer. "I've never heard of it before.""According to history, the Amphisbaena was spawned from the blood of the Gorgon, Medusa. It's a serpent which has two venomous heads at the head and the rear, and one can hardly tell the main head from the rear head."Herrick met Darius outside the house and announced. "The two-headed serpents are approaching the village; we have to stop them now."Darius stared at the horizon then instructed: "Herrick, get Moon's Call as quickly as you can; we can't do this without him!" He turned to the other men gathered around him. "The others, with me!" He shifted into a wolf and Astrophel and the other men did the same then they all darted out of the village.Herrick shifted into a wolf and darted the other way in search of Lycidas while Elaine and Theresa came out

Chapter: 21 - Theresa and LycidasOnce they were alone, Theresa had a chance to scrutinize her supposed mate. His features were strong and his somewhat chiselled face was handsome. His eyes were beautiful and distinct and he had a fierce aura despite his quiet demeanour. She couldn't let her eyes wander to the rest of his body because she sure didn't know how to look at a man apart from his face anyway. Besides, she had almost no experience with the opposite sex, especially during courtship.Glancing down at her lap where she was nervously wringing her fingers, she tried to do away with the uncomfortable silence that hung in the air. "I'm Theresa..." She began feebly in an attempt to start a conversation.He turned to look at her, tapping lightly on the table top with his nails. "I know," He said impassively.She hesitated and asked: "And you are Lycidas?"He answered with a grunt.This was all awkward for her and she felt very nervous. "I heard you are a lone wolf; an omega to be

Chapter: 20 - Berry"I've never seen anything like it before," Medea whispered mesmerized by thebeauty of the galaxy moving slowly in its transparent head.Berry's eyes finally settled on Theresa's worried face and he began jabbing one of its three fingers at her, gibbering as if accusing her in a language only she could understand. All heads diverted to Theresa who bit her lower lip nervously and cringed, turning a bit red in the face."Does it know you?" Karen was the first to ask.Theresa nodded and stared at Berry who was still hauling accusations at her. "It is mine."Claire snorted again. "Can this get any better? The weird princess gets weirder by the minute."Astrophel shot her a glare and she frowned at him."What is it saying?" Herrick curiously asked."It is mad at me," Theresa answered."Why?" Stella asked."It is obviously because I abandoned it in my room. I even forgot I brought him along," Theresa said ruefully.

Chapter: 19 - Elaine's instinctsEveryone watched Lycidas as he leaned down, picked up the chair and set it right while the boy muttered an inaudible “thank you” and nervously sat down, but warily pulled his chair away from Lycidas to keep some safe space between them. Claire shot him a glare causing him to cringe and sheepishly lower his gaze. He very well knew that Claire would cuff him severely when no one was around. She was that mean.Elaine smiled to ease the obvious tension that had hung long enough in the room. She stood up, and with the assistance of Karen, began to dish the food out but as she was about to dish out some to Lycidas, Claire surprised everyone by standing up with a winsome smile which was obviously meant to please or charm Lycidas. "Mother, I shall serve his." She offered as politely as she could.Elaine exchanged knowing looks with her husband, having telepathically communicated her concerns to him. When Darius nodded his reluctant approval, she passed the plate and ladle to her daughter who

Chapter: 18 - Elaine's concernMedea walked in moments later and happily acknowledged everyone present in the room which was not unusual of her. Medea was nineteen winters just like Claire and she was spirited and very friendly. Although she was very easy-going and fun to be with, she had the trait of wanderlust by going off on her own into the woods to discover places and new creatures. She was the daughter of a sentry, and her mother had died several years ago, leaving her to cater for herself while her father was stationed at the west gate and barely had enough time with her.Elaine had chosen to care for Medea as her ward and that had made her part of the family too, however, she was not oblivious to the conflict between Medea and Claire for reasons she didn't know yet but she suspected the fault must be from Claire because she had always known her daughter to be domineering and narcissistic.Not to mention that Claire had wanted a coterie of docile maidens who exalted, did her bidding without a

Chapter: 17 - BreakfastElaine turned as she heard footsteps and visibly sighed in relief when she noticed it was the men. "Where have you two been? You are almost late for breakfast. You two kept everyone waiting," She was complaining when she suddenly went quiet when Lycidas appeared in the dining room behind them, rendering her speechless. "Oh, okay...now I get what you have been up to." She sheepishly said, softly clearing her throat. The men knew that she was pleased that they had been able to convince the lone lycan to come for breakfast, thus every sin was forgiven.Lycidas turned to her and acknowledged her with a subtle nod and she did the same. She turned to Herrick's pregnant mate, Karen, and said, "Karen, it seems we'll be needing an extra plate, and on your way back, please call in the others," She then whispered the last sentence so that the men didn't hear her. "...and also get Theresa in here."Karen nodded and exited the room. Elaine turned and was surprised to see Lycidas staring at her in
