Chapter 1

Rose's POV.

"Take your dirty hands off my mate, you filthy bitch!" I heard a she-wolf roar with such ferocity as though she was going to kill me.

Before I could even say anything, I felt a tight slap land on my face. Almost immediately, my vision blurred and I felt a little dizzy.

"You pathetic whore! How dare you seduce my mate?" The fat she-wolf shook her fists furiously and cursed at me.

"Excuse me? Are you blind? Your mate grabbed my hand first." I clutched my cheek and looked at her with a shocked expression on my face.

Hadn't this she-wolf seen her mate ate me up with his lustful eyes? Much to my chagrin and confusion, I ended up facing the wrath of this unreasonable she-wolf in the form of another slap to my face. I fell to the ground and my ears were buzzing as if there were thousands of ants screaming inside my head.

"You are just a mere slave in the pack. How dare you talk back to me like that? Don't you know who I am?" The she-wolf pushed me to the ground and began punching and kicking me.

Meanwhile, her mate sat on a chair not too far away and watched with amusement. "This is ridiculous! She's the one who came on to me. Why would I be interested in James’ daughter? Her father is our enemy! It seems as though the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Dawson's daughter is just as heinous as he was."

I stayed on the ground and clenched my fists to hold back the tears from falling from my eyes.

My father, James Dawson, was the most powerful Alpha on the continent. However, he had been killed.

I had seen how my father was killed. He died miserably, and there was blood all over the ground.

After my father died, his killers occupied my pack and established a new pack under the name, Blue Lagoon Pack. My sister Andrea and I survived, but we were captured and made to work as slaves.

I even attempted to make an escape with Andrea several times, but it didn't go as planned each time and we ended up getting punished even more cruelly.

They kept us separated ever since our last attempt failed, and I didn't even know where my little sister was. I was made to serve the werewolves in the Blue Lagoon Pack, where on most days on the job, I got either beaten up or verbally abused. The mere mention of my father's name seemed to have angered the other werewolves. They all surrounded me and started kicking me, as if it gave them some sort of perverted pleasure to make me suffer.

"Damn bitch! Go to hell!" One she-wolf picked up the kettle from the table and poured it on my head.

"I'm going to teach you a lesson! Let's see if you still try to seduce others again!"

The hot tea flew down my cheeks. It almost burned the skin off my face. "Who has been trying to seduce others?" A cold voice cut through all the noise in the room and everyone froze.

I turned my head around with great difficulty and saw a young man walking towards us. He was tall, handsome and he looked powerful. His eyes were so sharp that his gaze sent chills down my spine. There was something inexplicable in his aura that made me feel afraid of him.

I knew he was the Alpha of the Blue Lagoon Pack.

The moment my father was killed, the murderers had cheered and shouted his name- Jack Harris.

This was the first time I had seen him in person since he caught me and Andrea and made us slaves.Jack stood in front of me, towering above me like a tyrant, and sneered.

"What do we have here? Dawson’s daughter!” I could sense his resentment for my late father just by the way he uttered my name. Suddenly, he looked at me with a hint of cruelty in his eyes. My heart leaped to my throat because I thought Jack was more frightening than any other werewolf in this pack.

I didn't know what he wanted to do to me, but I was scared nonetheless.

As soon as Jack waved his hand, the guards behind him came and dragged me away.They brought me down to the dungeon and threw me in a cell.

However, the next moment, my eyes widened in surprise when I saw Andrea there as well.

She was curled up on a small wooden bed and her breathing was steady. It seemed as though she was asleep. Before I could get close to her, the guards tried to put a shackle on me, but I dodged them quickly.

"Kill me and get it over with. Just don't touch me!"

After all, I was once the Alpha's daughter. I couldn't be seen wearing shackles symbolizing that I was a lowly slave.

"You're a feisty one!" When the guards saw me resisting, they pressed my shoulders down and grabbed my legs. I was outnumbered and easily overpowered, but I gave them a fight nonetheless.

"Get out of my way." I heard Jack’s voice again.

He sounded irritated. He narrowed his eyes and came at me menacingly. His boots made a dull thudding noise with every step which made my hair stand on end.

He squatted down, grabbed my leg, and shackled my right foot. He was much stronger than the other werewolves. He didn't even give me any chance to resist. "Do we really have to play a game of cat and mouse? You will stay here forever and atone for your sins until I die."

Jack tightened his grip on my neck as he spoke. "I am going to take great pleasure in torturing you slowly." My eyes shot up in bewilderment and I felt like I couldn't breathe.

"Atone for my sins? If you're implying that my father's actions were sinful, then you'd better think twice. The prisoners my father caught were criminals who deserved a lot more than death. Their actions were sinful," I struggled to retort.

Suddenly, Jack let go of my throat, but he sneered at me, his eyes expressing deep resentment. "Let me show you what actions are deemed sinful!" His eyes had a cold glint as they harbored his deep-seated hatred for me. Then he turned to look at Andrea with a smirk.
