Iris

I struggled to open my eyes, but my eyelids felt heavy and my vision was uncoordinated. When I finally managed to pry them open, the world around me was hazy.

Confused, I closed my eyes again, trying to clear the fog from my mind. I opened them a second time and my vision was clearer, but I realized that something was amiss.

I tried to sit up, but I felt a pain shooting through my back, making me gasp. I reached around and felt a thick layer of sterile dressing covering my skin.

Then memories from that horror came flooding back: the scorching acid pouring down my back, the pain that seemed never-ending.

Damn it, I couldn't believe that this wasn't just some nightmare in my head - it was all too real. My back would never be the same again, all because of some jealous psycho's twisted actions.

My heart broke miserably, and I swallowed hard. Whoever was behind this was heartless, and all for what? Adonis, who would never choose them anyway?

They had no shame. It sounded disgusting

    My mind fluttered away, anxious that D-Day had finally approached. Aunt Helena didn't make it, and I was sure that I would see her on the mainland.Half in anticipation and half in dread, I prayed that everything would work out smoothly. It wasn't as exciting as a competition would be, as the girls already knew the winner, but that was the least of my worries. All I wanted was for this to be over so I could live happily ever after with Adonis without anyone interrupting us.On D-Day, we were getting dressed, and the private helicopters were already outside to fly us. I felt a little sad to leave this beautiful place, so full of peace and far away from the madness and complexities of life."What's on your mind, my queen?" Natalia joked behind me and placed a hand on my shoulder. "I need to make sure that your makeup is perfect."My stomach churned, and I felt impelled by the gazes that I would get from people, knowing that there was no way in hell my father wouldn't find out. I didn't

    Adonis I stood frozen at the podium, unable to believe what I was hearing. The shocked looks on the audience's faces, as well as Iris's sobbing, confirmed that I was not dreaming. My mouth dropped open as Iris confessed. I tried to speak, but my words dried up, unable to comprehend the terrifying bombshell that Sophia had dropped on me without warning. My hands clenched into fists as I struggled to control the rage that was rising inside me. The betrayal stung like a thousand blades. This was supposed to be a memorable occasion, but lris duped me and turned it into a nightmare. Her audacity made my blood boil.It was so bad that I forgot to breathe until I felt pressure on my chest.How dare she! What kind of twisted person could Iris be, given that she was both a member of the Syndicate pack and the daughter of that despicable murderer? It was enough to make me see red.The girl I loved, to whom I had opened my heart and soul, was actually my enemy. The one who had made me feel al

    Alexander paced around, and fury almost choked him as he lashed out at his guard for being careless enough to let Victoria and her daughters out of their sight."You bloody bastards! How could you let her travel without my permission? I explicitly told you to keep an eye on her. Can't you at least do something right in your lives?"They bowed their heads shamefully. Although Alexander knew his wife was cunning and would find a way to do whatever she wanted, he still needed to assign blame to someone.When he returned from his trip to the northern region and discovered that someone was actively seeking ways to expose Iris and gathering information about her family, he warned Victoria not to entertain her."But darling, we need to find a way to get Iris out of there. He could kill her. The lady assured me that she would protect Iris, but first she needed to determine whether her suspicions were correct.”Alexander agreed but never expected Victoria to go to the Lycan pack and attend the

    IrisI sobbed quietly, and my tears echoed against the dank cell's cold walls. I've never felt more lost and alone in my life—not even when I was shipped to the sister sanctuary, when Ethan broke my heart and married someone else, or when my father repeatedly rejected me.This one really cut me. I couldn't think of anything else other than how Adonis' eyes drank me up, filled with pain for betraying him.I took him for granted. I took my freedom for granted and was a little foolish. My grief was overwhelming and painful, and I wept aloud while rocking back and forth.I curled up in a corner, attempting to find comfort on the hard, unforgiving floor, and my voice broke as I tried to sing to drown out my pain. Was there any hope for me?I whispered his name,m, and I longed for him to see the truth, to make him recognize that I wasn't his enemy. I, too, was a victim. I didn't choose to be born by my dad.“I'm sorry," I said softly, hoping that the air would carry it to Adonis. "I'm so so

    Iris When I looked down at the abyss of water in front of me, fear gripped me. The wind tugged on my hair, whipping it across my face and temporarily blinding me. I imagined them pushing me, and I gasped, panting in fear. My feet shuffled backward, pulling away from the edge, and my eyes searched the horizon for any sign of escape. There was none. My body shivered, hoping that the love I shared with Adonis would soften his heart and make him understand that I had no intention of harming him. Boots crunched on the gravel, and the guards realized another set of vans was approaching. My heart began to beat so fast that I lost control. The guards' radio crackled, and they spoke in low voices. I could feel Adonis' presence. Fear gripped my heart when I noticed a third convoy with the syndicate flag. Panic was brewing within me; there would undoubtedly be bloodshed. When Adonis stepped out of the car, I choked back a cry and felt like my breath had been cut off. There was a cold, black

    Sophia's heels clicked against the floor of the three-star restaurant on the outskirts of town. Victoria and her daughters sat at the window, waiting for her. Victoria and her daughter sat like royalty, their eyes cold, and their smiles oozed fakeness. If Sophia hadn't been trying to get rid of Iris, she would have sympathized with her because every member of her family despised her."Hello, darling," she said, offering Sophia a side hug. "How lovely to see you."Sophia forced a smile and sat across from them. She studied the menu, pretending to be uninterested. Her daughters sipped their wine with shark-like eyes, though one of them was clearly sympathetic towards Iris because she was the one who kept asking if Adonis would spare her life.The other wouldn't blink an eye if Iris died."I would like to thank you for everything, Victoria. Your assistance and timely response were impressive."Victoria smirked and leaned against her seat. "It was necessary. Iris is my husband's only leg

    Alexander's irritation grew when he heard the soft thud of luggage being placed in the hallway.His annoying wife had returned.He clenched his mouth tighter, frustrated that she never listened to him. While she was gone, his mind was filled with worst-case scenarios.What if she never returned? What if Adonis finally got his revenge, and she was caught in the crossfire?He could imagine her excuse: "Darling, I had to go and represent you."

    Iris“Why did I get so turned on in that cell when you flogged and degraded me?” I asked Adonis, curious about his answer. I rolled over to my back and he chuckled as he ran his fingers gently along my jawline, making goosebumps erupt under his touch. “Because you’re not as innocent as you think. You don't like vanilla sex.”“What's that?“It's when you have sex that involves more of a mutual give and take of pleasure. You don't like that.”“That's not true,” I countered. “I like sex with passion. But I like a little pain.”He looked at me with a broad grin and I flushed with embarrassment. “Don't make this difficult.”“Tell me what you like?” He said, his voice husky as he nuzzled my nose and peppered kisses around my chin.”"I have no idea,” I said truthfully. “You're the more experienced one.”“Power imbalance, that's what it is. You want me to dominate you. You delight in the sexual abandonment that comes with forfeiting control of your body and actions.”I bit my lip and my body

    IrisThe sorrow and pain in my heart was overwhelming; I couldn't stop sobbing. Adonis carried me over to his bedroom. Once there, he gently laid me down on the bed and sat down beside me.His hand brushed through my hair as he whispered soothing words in my ear and rubbed my shoulder. I continued to sob and felt utterly powerless to do anything but cryMy aunt used me as a pawn in a sickening game, and there was no getting rid of the feelings of betrayal and resentment. And then there was Natalia. Their betrayal ripped open wounds inside of me . The secrets and lies I had uncovered were like a heavy weight crushing my heart."Please, Iris, take your pills," Adonis begged me. But I shook my head, my eyes welling up with tears. "Take those damn pills away,” I yelled at him. “You don't understand what I went through. All the suffering and pain of being an Omega in an alpha household. I was constantly humiliated by my dad and stepmom who made my life a living hell!” My voice cracked a

    IrisMemories burst forth like fireworks in my mind, sharp and explosive. Each recollection came with a stabbing headache, like a dagger twisting in my brain. I winced and squeezed my eyes shut against the pain. But even the agony couldn't dim my joy. I was remembering things! Fragments of my past, long buried, were resurfacing. Faces, names, moments – all flooding back like a dam breaking.Adonis looked at me like he was seeing me for the first time. His mouth fell open in a gape. The way he grew still and serious made me chuckle. “You remember?” Was all he could say and I nodded. “I remember.”He went on his knees and grabbed my hand tightly, his breath hitching slightly. “Oh goddess…You really remember…” “It doesn't take a lot of effort on my part to remember how you locked me up and spanked my ass cheeks”He leaned back on his haunches and grinned widely, showing all his teeth. “Well, if it turns you on, I'm at your service all day. Just say the word.”I wanted to laugh, but

    AdonisI stood beside Natalia in the Lycan court to finalize our divorce.We had signed the papers a week ago, and today was the final step. Natalia's parents and Fred were present as well.The elderly judge looked over the papers and then gazed at us with a warm smile. "Adonis and Natalia, you have both agreed to this divorce, is that correct?""Yes, your honor," we replied in unison.His smile grew and he looked thoroughly amused. “ I must say, I've never seen a couple as amiable as you two. Happy divorce, I guess. Your marriage is hereby dissolved. May you both find happiness on your separate paths."“Congratulations to us,” Natalia said to me with a wink. Her parents and Fred applauded, and the judge was so dumbstruck which added more humor to the scene.I was about to walk away with Natalia when she grabbed my arm to stop me.“Oh yes, there's one thing I forgot to mention," she said. “Don’t give up on Iris.”My response was a pinky promise. I stepped out of the court and Fred drew

    IrisNatalia burst into my room, bouncing from foot to foot. Her eyes sparkled with excitement. "Okay, girl, let's get you ready for your big night!"Her energy was infectious and I felt a lightness in her chest.She began pulling out dress after dress from a bag and lay them on the bed. They all looked expensive."I think these are a bit too much for a garden date, don't you?" I ventured, eyeing the designer gowns. Natali ignored me, too busy sorting through the dresses and matching shoes and jewelry to each one."Ooh, this silver clutch would go perfectly with this dress!” she exclaimed, holding up a tiny bag that seemed to be made of pure moonbeams. "You're really getting into this, aren't you?" “Mm-hmm.”She continued to coordinate outfits with an intensity that rivaled a military operation, completely absorbed in her mission to make me look "absolutely stunning""Natalia, are you always this invested in your friends' dates?" "Maybe a little.But I just want to see you happy, Iri

    AdonisMy smiling was unrestrained and I felt all tension leaving my body and the temporary breathlessness after I pulled away from Iris' lips. It was like my life had snapped back to normal, and all the pain I felt this past month disappeared.Happiness was indeed a powerful emotion. One that was difficult to find when you've spent your whole life being miserable. My eyes were fixated on hers and they were shining brightly. She smiled back at me, and my heart skipped a beat. Her smile lit up her whole face and it made my heart fucking soar."I think I need to learn how to kiss properly. You seem like a pro,” said Iris, grinning.With great difficulty I tore my gaze from hers and grinned, unable to speak properly. "You're doing just fine. I don't mind sloppy kisses, I love you regardless. I love you much more than you can ever imagine.”Her face blushed pink and the grin slipped from my face."Did I say something uncomfortable? I'm sorry, I-”"No! No. Don't apologize.”"Then why did

    IrisA knock on my bedroom door broke my concentration. I was playing chess with Justin, and he was explaining the rules of the game to me, teaching me about the different pieces like the king, queen, knight, and their various moves.One of the maids came to inform me that my meditation instructor was waiting for me. I got off the bed, and Justin followed me downstairs.I was expecting a middle-aged man, just like the other doctors treating me, but I was pleasantly surprised to see a young woman, about my age, with long raven hair that reached her waist and an amazing cologne.“I'm Yolanda. It's a pleasure to meet you, Iris,” she smiled warmly as we did our introductions. I noticed she was subtly staring at Justin, and Justin, on the other hand, looked highly uncomfortable, as if he was both shy and in awe of her presence.His reaction amused me at first, and I made a mental note to joke about it later while I tried to focus on the task at hand.Yolanda gestured for me to sit down on

    Iris I sat in a dark room, crossing and uncrossing my legs and surrounded by the silence of anticipation.Fred, Justin, Natalia, and a few unfamiliar faces were all waiting for Adonis to emerge from his bedroom. He was unaware of the surprise that awaited him.I fought to keep my eyes open and was fighting with the weight of my medication, but my body was succumbing to exhaustion. My head nodded forward, and I jerked myself awake.We heard the sound of Adonis' bedroom door opening. Fred whispered that we get ready. Adonis walked into the room, looking different from his usual polished looks.Fred flipped on the light, and we all screamed, "Surprise!" in unison. The room erupted into chaos as everyone began singing "Happy Birthday" to Adonis.He was wearing a fluffy night robe, his hair was tousled, and his sleepy eyes widened in shock.“What's going on?” he asked with a chuckle, and his gaze darted around the room. When they landed on me, they lingered for a moment. He looked surpris

    IrisJustin and I strolled around the exterior of Adonis's mansion. The place was nothing short of beautiful, and I felt a wonder at being here.Forgetting to blink, I moved carefully to admire the fountain, the stone sculptures in various shapes and sizes, the manicured lawns, and every detail of it all.The structure was a far cry from Justin's small home. The grounds seemed to stretch on forever. I couldn't resist the urge to explore further. It was hard to fathom that one person could own so much wealth, and I wondered what kind of person the alpha was.Justin's voice broke into my thoughts. "He's ridiculously rich. I mean, it's almost illegal. How can one person have so much wealth?""Wow," I said softly so as not to break the spell. "And why would someone like that care about me? Does that mean I was rich before...?"My voice trailed off, and Justin looked at me. "I think you were. And I think staying with people from your past could help you remember."I stopped walking and lea
