Silver: I tried to keep my disinterest from showing. If Rogu wished to think I was a part werewolf, then fine, although at this point, knowing what they wanted to do to us humans, I never wished to be mistaken for a part of them. “My Lord, she's not a hybrid. She's human,” Terah corrected, speaking up for the first time since we were locked up in this room together. “It's her magical bracelet that makes her smell a little like us. She managed to trick everyone with it.” Rogu smiled once again and shook his head, apparently finding everything that was going on amusing. I didn't care if they thought I was a hybrid or not. I was more bothered by the fact that Rogu had seen and spoken with Victor, my best friend. The wristwatch I had gotten him was undeniable proof of that fact. He was even worse than I thought. If he was telling the truth, then that meant he had purposely put Victor in harm’s way, by convincing him he could find me using the map he had given him. What if Victor mana
Silver: He had a point, as much as I hated to admit it. However, I couldn’t find myself believing him over the Alpha I knew and loved. I just wished he hadn’t lied to me. I still remembered how Damon had returned to the library, smiling, after having just rejected me a few hours before. I wondered what had happened within those moments to change his mind, but now I knew. He had been found out I was a hybrid. The case of me being a hybrid was something I didn’t understand nor did I think I could ever come to terms with. I didn’t really think I was one, yet there were so many things I had assumed I knew about myself that turned out to be false. Being a hybrid meant I was a part werewolf, but it didn’t feel like it. I had always had a keen sense of smell, but it wasn't as exaggerated it as sensitive as that of a werewolf. I was just sensitive in that respect. It didn’t mean anything. I couldn’t shift, and apart from my hair which was a bit unusual because of its color, every other th
Silver:The walk back to the palace was quite shorter than our walk to Rogu’s new harem had been. Terah trudged silently by my side and I was thankful for the long way ahead. It offered me more time to think about what to say to the King and to recollect my thoughts while we went. By the time we passed by the streets, it was completely dark except for the slight rays of lamp-stands that covered the streets and came on at night. I was a little disappointed that I didn’t get to see the girls at least for a while, but it wasn’t like I had a say in the matter. I had nothing to say to them anyway. The only person I wanted to see was Mila, but if I did eventually meet her, I wasn’t sure I would be able to hold myself from exposing all the secrets I was supposed to keep.If she had been a part of my meeting with Rogu, she would have looked on at me with disappointment. She would probably call me a traitor for bringing up the idea of accusing Gerald falsely to the King, just to save myself.
Silver:Everything about the harem had changed by now but one thing remained the same- the uncomfortable feeling it brought me. I took a deep breath before following him into the building where all my woes had started.“Remember,” Terah warned me before we entered the dreary building. “Beta Rogu does not know you are here. I only brought you here because that was our arrangement with Lord Damon. If you do anything stupid like telling anyone what we discussed, you’ll regret it for the rest of your life, got it?”I looked up at him with a bored expression on my face, although my heart was pounding and I was terrified to be here. He didn’t need to know any of that. I didn’t need him to warn me. I understood everything that was at stake entirely. I was already in a very tight position as it was and I didn’t need to get myself in even more trouble. I had already made up my mind regarding what I would tell Mila if I saw her. The guard was the first person we met and fortunately, he was sl
Silver: Her words brought back memories I had struggled to hide away forever, memories I never wanted to remember for as long as I lived. I still remembered the first night I had spent with Godon, how happy I had been that he wouldn’t be able to touch me and how that happiness had turned sour when I discovered he had brought his orderly, Drex to tear me apart on his behalf. I still remembered the maniacal smile he had on his face as he watched his orderly shift and get ready to split me in half with his beast cock and how would have gotten away with it if not for the timely execution of on of the councilmen. I felt sick to my stomach. She was wearing the same smile as he had back then. She knew. That was why she had talked about tearing me apart. What was with these people and their excitement at watching people get hurt? Why did watching other people being in unspeakable pain turn them on so much? I tried to act like the implication did not affect me, but she had seen the flash
Silver: I woke up the next morning, struggling and gasping for breath. Mila tried to calm me down after I was fully awake but I couldn’t shake off the uneasy feeling I still had. “What happened?” Mila asked when I could finally control my breath. “I don’t know. I had a nightmare I think,” I said, the details of the dream flooding my memory at once. I had seen that wolf again, the magnificent silver one I had been told was mine. She had tried to speak to me but once again I was so scared I ran away. I was terrified of werewolves in their wolf form, how could I possibly connect with a wolf that was apparently now a part of me. “What was it about?” She asked and I wondered if I was ready to divulge the story, especially in front of the other girl. “I saw a wolf. A wolf I think is mine,” I said and there was silence. “Aren’t you a little too old to not know who your wolf is?” The girl asked derisively. “I heard hybrids get their wolves quite later in life. The body has to choose i
Silver: Now we were outside, I finally had the chance to put my plan into action. Since Mila didn’t know much of what had been happening on the inside, I knew I needed to find someone else and convince them to speak with me so that I would have something to tell the King when Terah would eventually return to take me back to him. Being outside was not as fun for the girls as I had hoped. Mila could move around although to a limit, but the other girl could only sit at a place and watch what was going on. She looked like she would deliver soon and after being confined in a room in a bed for the entirety of her pregnancy, being outside now was very difficult for her. Bringing them out here was another proof of my selfishness. I didn’t fight for them to be released because I felt so bad for them. I had done that just so I could meet up with other girls for information. However, I had no other choice and I was done hating myself for my choices. I had been able to kill two birds with one
Silver:“Already?” I asked. I couldn’t leave yet. I had just gotten such a small bit of information and I just had to know more. “We have to go,” the physician said again, this time more harshly than before. “Now.”“But I haven’t found out what the King sent me here to find out,” I protested. “If I leave now, then my whole reason for coming here would be useless.”He grunted in frustration, coming closer as if he wanted to grab me by my hand. He stopped at the last second, realizing it would be inappropriate. The matron was watching us both, and by us, I mean me. She was probably wondering why I would reject the offer to return to safety with the King, and because I had said I wasn’t done finding out what he sent me here to do, she was probably doubting if I was really on their side or not. It was when I saw the physician’s wild stare that I realized something was wrong. He was frowning at me very deeply and his chest was heaving as if he was trying to hold back his anger. Coming c
