Present day.__________Ryker's PoV_____Mirror, Mirror on the wall, who's the wildest of them all. It is I, Ryker Wolfcup, the evil secret lurking around. Not really around, though.I am the wild one, the ruthless predator trapped within this confining cage. I have been brutally treated and fed with horrible vegetables when all I needed is meat and blood.It would have been less traumatizing if I had someone else with me, like a pretty wild female wolf, one I can plunge and press my body into if I'm having a bad day. Or at least a bed for myself where my body can lay and I can stop crouching but each time my cage was changed, I only get a few inches of bigger space which sucks!For years I have been locked away, my freedom stolen, my spirit weakened. Once a fearsome creature of the night, I have been reduced to a mere shell of my former self.The stink of my imprisonment lingers in the air, a foul, awful odor that clings to my matted fur. I have become the embodiment of darkness, a c
Ryker's Pov_______Maybe Emily's plan was an escape opportunity for me. Nevertheless, the plan looks nothing like a successful job. "They will be back from their honeymoon in a month. That is enough time for me to groom you into looking like Ryder. You are identical remember, it wouldn't take me much work" she explained."And the girl… what's her name again?""Charia""Yes, Charia. How would a wife not know her husband?""That is the purpose of the accident, a silver wolfsbane bullet piercing into Ryder's skin would render him useless for some time. Then we would exchange you both at the hospital, you would go home with Charia and Ryder would come home with me. If you act awkwardly toward Charia, she is going to think the accident affected your brain. A doctor has been arranged for the reports""Why don't you just kill Ryder for once? I can handle shooting the bullet through his skin myself " I laughed menacingly"The purpose is to have Ryder for me and not kill him. With the antidot
Ryder's Pov_____Marriage is an incredible journey, a union that holds immense beauty and meaning. The most thrilling part of our wedding was undoubtedly the exchange of vows. It symbolized the promise to be there for each other through thick and thin and to share our lives and experiences wholeheartedly.I was married to Charia Wolfenstein, the one lady after my heart. My wolfsbane dagger lady. My bane of existence. My special flavor.Our honeymoon was a whirlwind of joy and adventure. Having Charia by my side made every moment all the more enchanting. She was my unique flavor, a taste that resonated with my soul. Everything about her, from her actions to her presence, made me feel like a complete man.She was the best thing anyone could have and my honeymoon was a combination of adventures and bed-breaking moments. I couldn't ask for anything more.However, something was weighing on my mind. The vows we took included the promise of honesty, even in the face of adversity. Charia des
Emily's Pov______One month Later_____I do not consider myself selfish, nor am I evil. Ryder was the one who betrayed me. After all those years, it was ridiculous to think that he chose Charia over me. Ryder loved me, he cared for me, I was his favorite beta, his favorite mate, and no one else could satisfy him more than I, and a random girl would just change it?Backstory, my mate was a disaster. After months with him at his place, he sexually harassed me and gave me to his brothers for sex too. I couldn't bare such treatment. I thought about Ryder all day. Ryder could never treat me like that. I knew he found his make, but I also knew how much Ryder still wanted me.I saw posts about his new relationship with Charia and it angered every of my nerve cell. I wanted him for myself and I didn't know how else to come in.I tried seducing him one time after his marriage with Charia, but he pushed me away. I cannot have failed effort. Rumors are going on about me. I have a failed career
Charia's Pov__________My muscles tensed, coiled like a tightly wound spring, revealing the power that lay stagnant within it. My breath quickened, coming in shallow, rapid gasps as if struggling to find a sense of control amidst the chaotic mixture of fear and anger. My wolf was angered by every thought. I should have realized we were still not safe. And I knew the exact person who did this. How could we arrive and they want us dead instantly?I thought Ryder and I were coming back to a peaceful life, but the enemies had other plans for us. I barged into the Wolfenstein mansion. I had left the hospital where Ryder was admitted, they wouldn't let me go in to see how he was fairing. I was scared, afraid, and also angry. But I wouldn't let anyone go scot-free if they tried to hurt Ryder.He is my husband! He is my mate! He married me! Said his vows to me! Because of him, my wolf was out. He changed my life! He loves me, he listens to me. He is my only taste and I would not stand and w
Charia's Pov_______More tests were run by the doctors and I was given feedback on the toxins that were shot at Ryder. How could anyone be so evil to do that to him?The doctor called me into his office. Restlessly I walked in there, asking Delphi to stay behind. If there was any news I wanted to hear about Ryder, I would hear it alone. "How is he fairing?" I asked the doctor."Pretty bad. Not much physical harm, but mentally maybe.""What do you mean mentally? It was silver, right? It should be physical harm. Any shrinkage?""It was a bullet, with silver and wolfsbane. That is three Mrs. Wolfcup""So how does that affect him mentally?""Not more than what you can handle. I just needed to tell you in case he behaves strangely""Strange?""After he is discharged in a few days. He would show an unfriendly attitude. Adhere to his words and everything will go fine in time""I do not understand" Tears rolled down my eyes."What I mean is, just like a lady wolf when pregnant, showing both
Three Days later_________When Peter and Melissa arrived at the hospital, I ran to hug them both tightly. I stayed in their arm for some time before I released our hug with tears in my eyes."I'm so glad you guys are here," I said."We are sorry Mrs. Wolfcup. We were expected to arrive earlier before you both, but our flight was canceled. Please forgive us" Peter apologized, concern all over his face. I do not think he had ever left his boss alone for such an amount of time. Certainly, he was regretting his vacation by now."Don't speak like that. No one knew this. Ryder and protect himself also, we were all caught unaware""Where is he now?""Luckily" I sighed and smiled. "I was finally allowed to see him at the hospital yesterday, I hugged him and felt his warm, and he served fine to me, he was still unconscious though, but the doctor said he fully responded today and we can take him with us.""Hope it wasn't a fatal accident?" Melissa asked."Not really. But the doctor said he was
Ryker's Pov_________Oh, what sweet, raw, and fresh meat my brother has in store for me. Getting freedom from the cage wasn't only the better thing here now, but I lived with a fresh flower whose scent messed with my head. The taste of her blood caused my stomach to rumble. Her nipples caused my shaft to rise hardI could tell I was going to have the best time of my life here. Now that I'm in control of everything, I'll make orders and make all my wishes to be granted. Including having this piece of strawberry cake for myself, my brother's wife tasted so good.So Ryder had been enjoying all the wealth, power, intimacy, and finesse of being an Alpha, while he locked me in the cage without proper care, treated me like a slave, didn't give me at least deers to consume if he couldn't afford me the life of his pack members.Ryder punished me too much, all these years. But now I was free and I didn't care to pretend to be Ryder forever if it would command wealth, power, and a beautiful mat
