Clarissa POVI looked through the window and listened to make sure no one was coming. I quickly gathered a few of my belongings, threw them in the bag, and quickly made a run for them.The moon goddess knew why he gave me this opportunity to escape this hell hole, and I will use it effectively. I practically ran down the stairs, grateful for my strength and stamina, even though I was only five feet tall.The building was a four-story building that was painted gold and purple, for reasons best known to Alpha Clay.Once I got to the last stairs, I paused and waited to hear the movement of the guards. My stepfather stationed guards to make sure I didn't go anywhere since he just brought me out of the prison cell where he locked me after I fought with Miranda because she spit in my food. It was like riding a rollercoaster living with my family, from starvation to humiliation because I was much smarter than her daughter and more beautiful, like the pack members
I opened my eyes. I was in some sort of moving cage, and my legs were tied up because I could not move them. I managed to sit up and then looked around. I was in a silver cage, and we were being moved by someone. I recognized one of the men in the cage with me—the one who told me about Supreme Pack earlier. I coughed, bringing their attention to me. "Where are we going? Who took us?" He scoffed. "How long are you going to keep on the pretense, Clarissa Clay? You and your pack members are all liars." I was about to apologize for getting them caught, but then the other man said. "I told you, Robert, not to take the money and agree to show them where the girl is because they looked like they would not keep the end of the bargain." "This is all because of this stupid girl; I am now a prisoner. Her pack members are murderers; they can all burn in hell." I burst into laughter. "And you are not? A liar and murderer, you call me and my family, but you took money and agreed to sell me t
I was shocked to the marrow; everyone was looking at me. I wanted the ground to open up and swallow me. I could feel Stephan's brother smirking at that asshole. I imagined that I would be dragged outside and probably shot to death or even killed for throwing up on the almighty Alpha. The whole place was as silent as a graveyard.I wanted to cry out of fear of what would happen to me. I opened my mouth to plead for mercy when a blow landed on my face. I fell as blood oozed from my lips. I looked up at the person who landed the blow on me.It was no other person but my mother; she grabbed my hair and cursed at me. "You insolent, stupid, useless child, when will you ever learn to behave? I should take you out and have your tongue cut out for your insolence."she said as she grabbed my chin and squeezed with force.She kneeled to apologize out of fear, as did everybody, for they did not know what their faith would be with what I did.I heard her say, "I am sorry for the disgrace, A
I stood up from the ground and lay on the bed. I did not have any appetite to eat, and I certainly did not care to sit near the arrogant wuss.I won't ever forgive them; the final straw was them giving me away.After all, I did to get her to like me, she still treated me like a piece of sh*t.I rubbed my hands in my face, cleaning the snort and tears.I wanted to take a shower, but there was no way in hell I was going naked inside this room, mate or not.I lay on the bed. I was half asleep when water rained on me.I jerked up, shocked and confused by what was happening. My clothes were soaked to the brim.I looked up to see the culprit so that I could unleash hell on the person. I saw him glaring at me, the bucket in his hands. I was beyond mad.I wanted to slap his stupid handsome face, but knowing where I was and who he was, I would rather not."I ordered you to eat, but you defiled my order; how dare you!" he roared.Okay, who the hell does this asshole think he is to order me ar
I stood there shocked, forcing my brain to process what was happening.I turned to look at the face of my tormentor, the one who made me question whether I deserved to live.I was too mortified to speak.It is written on her face that she is enjoying this; she has a smirk on her face, and I want nothing more than to wipe the smirk off her face.In my mind, I tried processing what brought her here.I was curious to know what her mission here is.Did Clay send her? Are they trying to monitor my movement?I wanted answers to the questions on my mind.Let's find out what this witch wanted.I cleared my throat and asked the one question that was on my mind. "What are you doing here? Why are you here?""Did Dad send you? Was it mom?""You mean, my dad? It seems that you are confused about who your father is Clarissa. I don't blame you, poor Clarissa, born out of wedlock, without her daddy," she taunted in her baby-like voice, a voice that I loathed so much."For all you know, he might be a
Alpha Terror, Chapter SixI was petrified by the raw power that pushed him down.I turned to see my mate snarling at Liam. His eyes were red, showing that his wolf had taken over. "How dare you go near my mate, Beta? Do you dare to hurt her? He grabbed him by the collar and threw him against the wall. Liam landed on the wall with another heavy thud. He punched him, breaking the wall with him on it.He punched him again and again until he bled. He held him by the throat, squeezing it as if to snuff life out of him."Please, let him go alpha!" Miranda screamed. He spurned around, roaring at her. Miranda averted her eyes, bending her neck in submission. I struggled to get up so that I could stop him from making the greatest mistake of his life, but my broken bones were not helping me. If he is not his brother, I won't even move a muscle. I was hurt and in pain too. "Stop please!" I pleaded with him."You will kill him."He paused for a moment, looking at me. With a look of h
I tried tiptoeing away, but his demanding voice stopped me."Pup, I know you are there, I can sense and smell you."Busted, I thought. I quickly pushed in the wicked witch.We stood in their presence."Why are you here?" the Gamma, William asked." You know that this area is restricted when we are having a meeting."I decided to play it smart.I refused to say anything."I am talking to you, Luna."I feign ignorance, "Oh I thought you were talking to my dear sister, I did not know you were addressing me."From his expression, I could tell that my answer made him angry.He was about to say something when Stephan cut him off."Pup, why are you both here?" he asked.We looked at each other, I could tell from the look in her eyes that she was distressedIt is time to put my acting skills to the test.I put on my face the expression of someone distressed," Alpha, I wanted to speak to my sister on something important."" I went to their quarter to look for her, I was told that after she re
My heart flew when I heard that.We quickly hid, masking our scent with a spell, being careful not to be seen by the guard."I thought you said that no one else apart from Alpha and your mate knew this area," I whispered."Yes, no one except them.""Who is that, then?""It must be that guards have been stationed there by the alpha because of the pure breeds."The guard walked around the place while shining the torch he was carrying.He extended his search to the dark areas, being very careful to know the source of the disturbance.We had to find a well-covered area to hide in order not to be discovered.We waited till he was satisfied with his search and left before we came out of the hiding spot."Don't you dare say anything to anyone; if you do, I will kill you in a slow, painful way.""You know what I am capable of; Daddy is not here to save you," I warned.She did not say a word; that would have made me suspicious of her, but it didn't because I was desperate to leave.I ran the ot
Stephan's POV Continuation I watched baffled and frightened by what happened. The explosion pushed them back; they disappeared. I looked around, and ten thousand men were standing; some were on the left-hand side, while others were on the right-hand side.The alpha, who stood at the front from the left-hand side, spoke first."Hi Stephan, it is good to see that you are still in one piece."I was so happy to see him.I could use all the help I can get."Crescent pack warriors at your service, Alpha Stephan.""You are welcome, too, alpha of the Crescent Pack.""What is happening, Stephan? What are these?" he asked me."I don't know how to explain, but they are half beast, half werewolf; all I know is that they are indestructible.""There must be something that can destroy them," he said to me."Yes, I have a plan.""What is the plan, Stephan? He persisted with his questions."I can only kill them if I cut their heads off of their bodies; the only way I can do that is if I can g
Stephan's POVI woke up because I heard someone scream. I did not know how long I had slept.I was disoriented for a while. I looked up at the sky; it was dark as if smoke had covered it.My body was wet and cold. I moved my hands to touch the floor, and I noticed that the leaves there were wet too. It must be because of the dew.I pulled myself up to a sitting position and looked around.I was inside the forest; the whole place was covered with grass and tall trees.It must be the reason why sunlight cannot penetrate it.I used my wolf vision to look around.I noticed a little ray of sunshine shining somewhere within the forest.I followed the light till I got to where it was shining. My hands got to work, and I used them to push the grass blocking my way out of it.I walked out, looked around, and could not recognize where I was.I was sure that when I came to this place, I was unconscious.I wonder who brought me to this place."Stephan, where are you? We are losing." I heard a voi
Stephan's POV "No, Stephan, don't do it; don't give in to him; he lied, my love; he lied to you, she continued screaming. I heard scuffles and the breaking of things. "Don't you dare hurt her," I threatened. My eyes blazed. "You need to find Carli Stephan; he can find me." "They had him brainwashed into thinking that we killed his parents; if you can find him and convince him, he will help you," she screamed. I heard gunshots, and the line went flat. I screamed out of pain as I tried to mind-link her. I was scared to death hearing that shot. I was restless that I was not there. "Little one, are you okay?" I screamed in my head. "Please say something so that I will know that you are okay," I pleaded. "I am in pain, my love, but I will be fine," she said to me. "You have five minutes to tell me the truth William, or else I will start dropping dead bodies here," I threatened him. "Do you worse, Stephan? You are going to regret not taking my offer," he boasted.
Clayton's POV The moment I saw Clarissa on the floor and the look she had on her face, I knew instantly that she had heard everything. It is funny that she is trying to play it off. I needed to play along to make her relaxed, and I could watch her. I noticed that she was shaking out of shock. Since she wants to play, let's play. When she mentioned her mother's death, I knew that she was trying to divert my attention. I decided to fake it; she was so convinced by my acting. I pretended that I had gone into my room while I stood at the door and watched her. I heard Carli questioning her. Even though Carli kept interrogating her, she still hesitated to answer him. I saw her leave, and I knew instantly where she was going. I went inside for a few minutes so that I could get ready. I sent my men out immediately to follow her. When I came outside, I saw that Carli had a troubled look on his face. "Where is Clarissa?" I asked him. He frowned at me and answered
Stephan's POVI had to go see my friend Alpha Tyler; he had promised me earlier that if I needed his help, all I had to do was tell him when I needed it.I know that if we were to attack Alpha William's secret hideout, we would need all the help we could get.He told me that he was able to get me a few men, but I wasn't bothered because I knew that the few men he gave me would be enough to defeat our enemies.I was busy with him; that was why Clarissa was not able to pass through at first.She pushed through our bond; I felt her, and when I opened the bond, she was already out.I could sense her distress, and that scared me.I quickly concluded my meeting with Alpha Tyler and rushed out.Then I heard her distress call."Stephan, help me."I wish I knew where my gamma is, I would have sent him.I knew that I might not get to her on time that was why I pleaded with her to stay back till I got to that place.I felt that it would be safer and easier to pick her up from there since it w
Clarissa's POV "Clarissa, What are you doing here?" Alpha William asked."Why did you come in here?" he continued."Why are you on the floor? he questioned me.I tried to speak, but my mouth refused to bring out a sound.Fear crept into my mind.I already know how this is going to play out if I am not able to come up with a tangible story to cover up why I was in there.I grabbed his hand. I wanted to steady myself. I stood up, calculating in my mind what to say to him so that he wouldn't be suspicious of me."What are you doing here, child?""You have not answered my question yet.""I am sorry, grandfather; I came in here looking for you.""Why are you on the floor? Did you just call me grandfather?" He asked, looking surprised.I pretended like I did not hear the second question; I did not want to repeat what I said earlier so that I wouldn't gag."I thought I saw something; I am sorry, alpha." "I felt a chill on my body; I froze, and from there I fell." "What did you s
Clarissa's POVIt has been two days since Ray found the laboratory.We made plans on how to attack the laboratory.I will go to Moonlight Pack and distract my grandfather so that we can access the laboratory.I was not comfortable going there blind.I wish we could talk to Carli to know if we are to expect any surprises from them.I will try to talk to him in secret.Before we started this journey, Stephan made sure that everyone swore to keep it a secret.I know why he did that; he knew that Liam would tell Miranda, and she would in turn warn her family. "This is a top-secret mission; no one is to know about it," he warned."We will infiltrate the moonlight pack, overshadow it, and bring it down.""Swear that you won't say anything to your mate" Stephan asked him.He agreed to do that.We arrived at night, this time without Gamma William.Stephan needed him at the front line when the whole thing began; that was what he said to me.The whole place was filled with his men when we ar
Stephan's POV Clarissa's idea sounded so easy and simple, but I knew that things could go wrong with our plans. I will contact one of my friends, known as X-ray, but I call him Ray from another pack to help me track it. He is a guy I helped a long time ago; he was known for buying weapons and technology and selling them to the highest bidder. He is also a skilled hacker. He pissed the wrong people off because of that. They hired assassins to take him out. He was lucky that I was investigating who was responsible for the disappearance of some of my pack members. I was pissed at the number of assassins that were fighting one helpless man. Out of boredom, I decided to rescue him. I will kill him myself if I find out that he committed a heinous crime. After I rescued him, I found out the reason why he had been almost killed since that day. He gave me a promise that whenever I needed his help, he would be more than willing to help me. "Hello Stephan, my man, it has been so
Clarissa's POVI woke up late today. I was feeling good with the clear sky and the birds chirping.The sound of men moving to and from one spot to another and the fresh air added to the serenity I felt this morning."Good morning, my love; you are finally awake," he crooned, kissing my cheek."Why did you not wake me up, babe?"'You were sleeping so peacefully, I did not want to disturb you. How are you feeling?""I am good, my love," I answered, kissing his lips."I made something for you since you complained that you were having headaches yesterday," he said to me."You are not coming down with something, right?""You are alright this morning, right?" he asked me."Yes, I am. I feel refreshed. Yesterday, what I went through contributed to what happened to me.""Alright, come sit and eat, he said in a gentle voice."What did you make for me?""I am sorry I did not make your favorite cake; I thought I should make you chicken soup to energize you this morning.""Should I take it back?
