2024-10-29 19:42:56Something soft touched my forehead. I flinched immediately, scared. Agony shot up in my whole body, and I whimpered, almost sobbing.
“Hey. Hey, it is me.” the voice was just as soft as the touch had been. And it felt familiar.
I tried to open my eyes. Since they were swollen shut, I could barely see anything. I blinked a few times, trying to clear my vision. When I could finally see, I saw the figure of a man bent on his knees in front of me.
“A- Adrian?” I asked, barely about to whisper through chapped lips. I had not eaten or drank anything since I had been brought to the dungeons. I think it had been more than three days because the guards came every day to investigate the truth out of me.

“Go over there, and bring some of it.” Lucinda commented and pointed at the burning hot pot of the porridge that had been set at the dining table.Nodding my head, I stood up and started to walk toward the kitchen to grab a small bowl. “Where do you think you are going?” Lucinda’s snap made me halt, and then turn around, “where are you running off to?”“Bowl.” I said. Wasn’t it obvious?She scoffed. Her fingers pulled the gum out of her mouth and put it on the freshly cleaned table that I had just spent ten minutes cleaning up.“Use your hands.” she said, shooting me a vicious stare. “What?”She rolled her eyes, got up from her seat, and walked over to me. Snatching my wrist, she took a spoonful of porridge from the pot. My eyes shot to the burning hot pot. The smoke was still coming from the food.“No, please do-” I tried to snatch my hand back but she poured the hot porridge all over my hand.“Ah…” I cried out in pain.My skin burnt immediately, turning bright red. Tears welled up

I was still as a rock. I had a faint idea of what he was about to say but I did not want him to confirm my fear.“You were running away from this pack?!” he barked angrily, “I went to your house and the sight that greeted me was of a very clean house that had all things packed already. You were fleeing from here? Without even saying one damn thing to me?”I flinched at his loud voice but then turned my head away and muttered, “It has nothing to do with you.”“The hell it doesn’t!” he shouted, his hand slamming on the wall beside my head, “you are my mate! I have every fucking right to know what goes on with you!”“No, I am not your m

Adrian kept staring at her in silence. Indifferent. It fueled her anger more. Grabbing a vase from the side table, she smashed it on the ground. And then continued to pick whatever came in her hands, screaming madly. “You! You ruined it! Why is it that every time I am in front of you, you don’t see ME?!” she flipped around to face Adrian again, her breaths heavy, eyes red, and unfocused. Her pupils were so enlarged that she looked like a mad woman. “I love you so much! I did so many things for you! Why don’t you see that? What the hell is wrong with me?!” “Get out.” Adrian said in a calm voice. She grabbed more things, throwing them on the ground. The whole floor was now filled with glass, and plastic, and all the other broken objects. “Guards!” a man rushed inside the room. “Take her out of my room.” The guard grabbed Lucinda’s flying arms. She still kept screeching wildly, completely out of control. I had never seen her like this ever before. I guess the shock of Adrian bei

I opened my mouth to scream my lungs but but then stopped at the very first squeak when I saw it was Adrian. With my eyes wide, and heart still thumping wildly in shock, I ran to the bedroom door to lock it from inside. “Surprise!” he grinned, standing up on his feet. “Shock!” I said breathlessly, “please give a small knock on the window when you come in next time. I don’t want to have heart problems in my twenties.” “Oh, so your heart beats fast when you see me?” he smirked, getting closer. “In fear. Trust me.” I said, looking out the window to make sure no one was watching. “And what are you doing here? If mom saw you, she is going to skin me alive. And I am not even saying that rhetorically. I mean literally. She WILL skin me alive.” He made a face and plopped down on the bed, making my anxiety rise. One, he was not supposed to be anywhere in my house. The thought of mom knocking at the door any second and smelling his scent was giving me a panic attack. And two, who would ev

“Just put everything down, and go back, please. I will settle in.” Leila said to the workers who had already arranged everything in the new house that alpha had gifted to live next to the pack house. I wished I did not have to face her again because it gave me a really painful feeling in my chest whenever I saw her smile. I don’t know why, but I detested being anywhere near her, especially because Lucinda was literally glued to her everywhere she went. And also because people had still not stopped talking about the same damn thing that happened with Kaya’s murder, but I was not that much affected anymore. I had to be courageous now. “Oh, hey, August!” Leila chirped sweetly, “are you here to clean the house?”Like you did not ASK for me to be sent specifically. What a random question.“Yes.” I bowed in front of her.And like my nightmare coming alive, Lucinda walked out of the house in her usual high and might self with displeased expressions on her face, “These omegas are just getti

My fingers tightened in a fist but I held back. Dropping my face to the ground, I mumbled, “Sorry.”“Don’t hit other people, Ara!” Leila scolded.Ara stepped back. “Oh, I also asked Ara to bring one of our most precious artifacts from our pack.” Leila smiled and took a seat, followed by Lucinda.She peeked over Lucinda’s shoulder to look at me, “August, will you bring it out of that box, please?”She pointed at the small box at the table. I pressed my lips tightly, and nodded my head. As much annoyed and angry I was, I had much important matters at hands now. Walking over, I grabbed the heavy box and brought it to their table. I bent down on the ground on my knees to open it. Opening the top of the box, I pulled out the piece that was quite heavy. It was something made of glass. Something very precious clearly. Just as I was just pulling it out, something clicked in my mind.Although this house was new, Alpha had already given it to Leila the day she had come here. Her servants were

What is this? The paper had been stuffed inside the cover to hide it. Why would Kaya or anyone push it into the mattress? Was I overthinking this or Lorenzo really had something to do with Kaya’s murder?I kept staring at the paper, wishing somehow some magical words would appear on it to give me a hint. But it remained as it was. I stuffed it in my pocket, and then quietly tiptoed out of the room. I was carefully closing the door behind me when a soft whisper slipped across my ear, “Snooping around?”I jumped in shock, and flipped around immediately. My eyes wide.Lorenzo stood in front of me with a smirk on his face, staring at me from top to bottom. Shit!“Wh- what? No. I was,” I gulped to hide my nervousness and quickly think of something, “I was looking for the washroom. Miss Leila said it is here, but I could not find it since thre are so many rooms in this corridor.”“Liars get set on fire, omega.” Lorenzo’s voice remained cold and emotionless even though there was a smirk on

I shifted immediately. Down on my knees in my human form, my arms covering my chest, I stared at the now dead guard with wide eyes.“What… did you just do?” I whispered, and lifted my eyes to look at Lorenzo, “you just killed a man?”He appeared indifferent, and casual like he had just chugged down a bottle of beer instead of committing murder. He jumped over the dead body of the man to get close to me, and then looked down at me with a smile. “Of course. Anything for you.”“For me?! FOR ME?!” I repeated the words. Why was he not making any damn sense?”“Well, yeah!” he shook his head like it was SO OBVIOUS, “something is wrong with your wolf, isn’t it? You shined in the dark. Pretty sexy, by the way,” he smirked, “but whatever it is, I don’t want to know. He was calling his pals over to get you in trouble, I stopped him from doing that. So didn’t I just help you?”My heart thumped with slight relief. He did not know about a the shining wolf tale. My secret was still safe.“I never a

The setting sun painted the sky in hues of pink and gold, casting a warm, ethereal glow over the sprawling pack lands. As the day transitioned into twilight, a sense of magic filled the air, mirroring the enchantment that swirled within my heart. The pack hall stood before me, adorned with delicate drapes and fragrant blossoms, like a sanctuary of love and unity.I stood at the threshold of this momentous occasion, my pulse quickening with each passing second. The gown I wore clung to me like a second skin, its intricate lace and shimmering details embodying the essence of elegance. My eyes, brimming with excitement and nervous anticipation, reflected the soft candlelight that illuminated the hall.Beside me, my mother, a portrait of strength and love, offered me a tender smile. Her eyes shimmered with unshed tears, mirroring the depth of emotions that surged w

"Mom," I stammered, the fear threatening to consume me. "You... his scent is on me... You slept with Adrian?" Her fury trembled through her every word."You... how dare you?!" she exclaimed, storming towards me. Gripping my arm tightly, she shook me with an intensity fueled by rage. "Are you out of your goddamn mind?! What have you done, you brainless girl?"This was the first time I witnessed my mother's controlled demeanor crumble, her words echoing throughout the pack house, leaving a trail of anger in their wake. It felt as though her body had been possessed by a stranger, her rage seeping out unrestrained. Her eyes blazed with fury."August, I explicitly told you that if you went near that boy again, our relationship would be severed. But not only did you break that promise, you came back home reeking of his sc

“Adrian, it’s a misunderstanding.” I tried to clarify but his hand on my neck tightened even more, almost restricting my breaths.“I heard whatever was necessary for me to hear. I had to hear it from the other pack members that you went on a fucking date with some chimp, August!”“He wasn’t a chimp, to be fair. He was pretty good looking guy.”“Are you sure that this is that what you want to say to me right now?!” he growled icily.Shit.“I- I’m sorry, okay? It wasn’t-”He snatched me closer at once, his breaths tingling my lips, “Listen to me August, you are mine and whatever whoever has said to you doesn’t matter the fuck to me. If you are so intent on ignoring that, then I am not letting you out of my fucking sight from now on. And then I will see how you go on other dates.”“Adrian,” I whispered, my heart pounding in my chest. “Let me explain.”His arms on my waist tightened and his hand that was on my hip slid down deeper, lower, to the spot between my legs to grasp it with his f

The restaurant exuded a cozy charm, its small space adorned with greenery and dark wood tables. The atmosphere was intimate, with only a few couples scattered throughout the room. My attention was drawn to a lone figure seated near a grand window that overlooked a picturesque hill, his gaze fixed on the world outside.With a warm smile, I approached him, extending my hand for a friendly introduction. "Hey, I'm August," I greeted, hoping to establish a connection.He returned my smile and shook my hand. "Ah, hey, I'm Tony."Tony was undeniably cute, although he possessed a different kind of charm compared to Adrian. Adrian had that smoldering, irresistible handsomeness, while Tony had an endearing innocence reflected in his face, complete with bangs cascading over his forehea

I stood there, watching as my mom's face twisted in agony. It was as if she was holding onto some kind of terrible secret that she couldn't bear to reveal. I wanted to know what had happened between her and Alpha Bruno, but I didn't want to push her too hard. Whatever it was, it had clearly left a deep scar on her soul.“Mom, what just happened?” Mom, who was frozen till now, suddenly lifted her hand to her chest. It was shaking.I rushed over to her, supporting her body as she began to stumble. I helped her to the bed, making her sit down."Mom, please tell me," I said softly. "I won't judge you. I just want to understand."She shook her head slowly, her eyes distant and unfocused. "It's a long story, August. A painful one."And then lifted her head to meet my eyes, “It’s- nothing. I had told you Adrian and you are not meant to be together! I warned you so many times, August.”“Mom, you are scaring me.” “It’s not about you. It was never about you. But that man- he… he is… August, I

“I am.” I muttered. “I want more.” he smiled and slipped his hand on the small of my back. His hand was warm, and I couldn't help but shiver at his touch. His faced leaned in and his lips brushed against mine. He pulled back slightly and whispered, “Your scent is driving me fucking crazy.” “We… we should-” Before I could finish my sentence, he kissed me again. This time, he was much more aggressive. He deepened the kiss, his hands were on my waist, and he was pulling me closer to him. With my body trembling, I clung to him. As much as the thought of someone seeing us making out made me nervous, ignoring his touch was much harder. His mouth slid down from my lips, down to my ear, licking the sensitive spot that I didn’t know existed. My body stiffened as I felt the tickle on my ear. The electrifying sensation ran through my entire body at once, igniting fire in every pore. “Adrian…” I whispered. My hand slid from the side of his face to his neck, my fingers trailing along the

I became still with shock. The stunned look was perhaps clear on my face as Alpha Bruno’s eyes narrowed when he spoke the next words,“You both knew from the very start that all of this was just for the show. There was obviously never going to be a marriage between you two. It is best for you to end it right now. I don’t want my son to be connected with an omega in any way from now on.” his eyes slid to Adrian, muttering, “understood?”Adrian’s face was emotionless. Cold and indifferent.“Dad, I am not doing that.” Adrian responded. “Leila is already out of the picture so all our troubles are over. I want to keep August.” he glanced my way briefly and met alpha’s gaze again.Alpha’s gaze turned stern, “Don’t test my fucking patience, Adrian. What are you thinking? An Omega by your side? Have you lost your mind?!”“I agreed to do whatever you wanted. But I not thi-”“We will, Alpha.” I interjected before things could get any worse, “we will announce the cancellation of our engagement a

I pushed him out of the room as my face turned red in shame. Locking the door from inside, I took several deep breaths to calm myself and then changed the clothes. The dress was light and cloudy on my skin. I had never had something like this. Something NEW even. Exhaling with deep comfort, I stepped out of the changing room to go meet Adrian.Adrian’s appreciative stare slid over me, making me blush even harder. When I was next to him, he grabbed my hand and took me along to shop around for more things. The time passed pretty quickly as we brought shoes and jewelerry and even the smallest things like shampoo and lotions. By the time it ended, I was literally exhausted out of my mind. We then ate food in a nice restaurant and had an ice cream. We then headed back to the car with some bags in our hands, ready to return.After coming back home Adrian leaded over to whisper, “I can’t wait to take this dress off you.”“We are in public!” I hissed, hiding my face in his arm. I had made a

I woke up from gentle knocking on the door. It first the constant ‘Thak, thak, thak’ irritated the hell out of my sleep deprived brain. But then I opened my eyes, realised I was in the pack house, laying in Adrian’s spare room entirely naked with a heavy arm around me, and shot up immediately.Shit!THAK. THAK. THAK.The knocking grew louder. Fucking hell.I did not have the time to dress up so I just threw on the bathrobe laying on the floor, and got out of the bed. I was about to unlock the door when I remembered something, flipped around and ran back to the bed.Adrian was spread out in the bed, fast asleep. I grabbed the sh
