Aveline

I woke up on the bed, unscathed. This has got to be a joke!

Something was messing with my head here and I needed to figure out what it was before it overwhelmed me.

I sat up but I was too weak to even think. The worst part is, I didn't know what time it was. The only source of light was the dim light bulb that shone in the cell and it appeared to be dimmer each time I woke.

Like someone was controlling the cell with a remote.

"I'm fine!" I whispered, touching my face, my left chin where I hit hard on the wall what seemed to be a few minutes ago, or hours. I didn't know anymore.

I looked around the cell with anxiety, the dark walls met my gaze, and the floor was still cold and damp but it wasn't as wet as the day I first came in.

_Talktometalktometalktome_ I wished more than anything that my wolf was with me but since I couldn't feel her, I decided to do what she would have advised if she were here.

V was a calm wolf, and that helped her defeat her enemies with ease. While I w

    DravenOne could say everything was going quite well except for Draven of course, he grew miserable by the day. Although he tried to push everyone away and act like he wasn't affected by what was happening around him, he buried himself in work and took over taking care of Betty.Taking her to every ice cream date on their date calendar and playing with her for however hours she wanted.Everyone noticed the changes but could not talk to him about it since it was better than locking himself away in his chambers or numbing his system with alcohol.Sabrina had been handling her position so well that there were barely any complaints concerning the company or its shareholders. She was fierce and was able to keep them in check since becoming CEO, plus she did extra work making sure nobody bad-mouthed Aveline behind her or in her very eyes.She would almost tear them apart and that helped reduce the many flying rumours about Aveline. However, there was a new problem. Julian, the cursed Lyca

    KadeKade and Beatrice left the dungeon after Kade gave her 48 hours to make a decision. "Do you think it will work? Do you think she will agree to it?" Beatrice asked Kade once they were out of the dungeon. "I'm positive. There's no way she can survive what her cell is made of. The last person who was put in there ran mad and is still hearing voices from the room to date. If she survives the mental torture, it's a miracle." Kade replied confidently. "Good. Everything has to go well so we can fully take charge. And I think you should give Julian what he wants." Beatrice added.Kade looked at her with a smug expression. "Hhm, is the almighty Beatrice worried about me? Is that what I think it is?" "Don't push your luck. I'm just saying. He looked pretty serious back then and considering his history, getting into a fight with him is the last thing we want for our plan to be a success so give it to him let peace reign." Beatrice explained with a stern voice."I still take that as you

    Aveline "Let go of me!" I protested as Kade pulled me out of the cell room with so much force.He ignored me and kept on pulling me out of the room. I felt bad and happy at the same time.Happy because I was finally out of that shit hole, that manipulative cell and bad because I couldn't fight back or stop him from treating me with so much roughness. I felt so weak without my wolf."Get your hands off me!" I screamed just as we got to the main door of the dungeon. I managed to push his hands away but it only lasted for a second as he grabbed onto me almost immediately and pulled me out of the dungeon."All I wanted you to do was offer me some little help by performing a little sacrifice." Kade's voice was raspy."After all I've done for you, don't you think this is a little way to appreciate me?" "Fuck. You. Kade!" I screamed in response."You just have to be stubborn huh? You just have to give me a hard time and make things hard for everyone." He wiped his nose with the back of hi

    AvelineThere was something on my jaw, no, it started from my cheeks to my jaw and it was itchy and uncomfortable. I tried to reach for it with my hands but I could not. Like I was restricted. I tried to shake it off by shaking my head sideways but it was a futile move so I resorted to the only option I had which was to pull my hand out of whatever it was that was holding it bound.And when I tried to pull out my hands three times, I finally threw my eyes open and then it dawned on me.I was in that shitty lab and whatever it was itchy on my face was tears. I was crying from my sleep."Fuck!" I exclaimed when I tried to straighten up but felt a sharp pain in my spinal cord. I woke up bent with my hands pulled back by the strong straps.Pain shot through my bones from my spinal cord and I felt just how sore my joints were.The leather strap was so strong I couldn't wiggle my hands out of it, it had some elasticity that held my hands tighter the more I tried to pull out of it.I stoppe

    DravenThe perception of Kade being the one who offered to sell his shares made Draven and Sabrina uncomfortable because it was like giving the devil a pass to not only dine with them but also have a say on what meal should be made and who should eat.Judging from the past experiences with Julian, the devil they were dealing with, they knew he would make sure they didn't even have access to the food."Any update?" Draven asked Sabrina who walked in with a pile of files in her hand.They had been working tirelessly to contact Kade or even find evidence that he proposed to sell his shares.They also tried to change the company's policy so that the shareholders would not be able to sell their shares unless the company approves but they were told it would take a lot of time and they didn't have time."Nothing yet." Sabrina shook her head, her expression was one of defeat. "Did you search everywhere for him? His office?" Draven asked to be sure but Sabrina maintained her look of defeat."

    Draven"Turn off your headlights!" Draven half screamed to the warriors on the steering wheels of each vehicle and their lights went off.It was almost daybreak, the sun was still forcing its way out of the dark clouds and they were in the woods. There was no telling what could be there with them.They stayed there, frozen in the silence as they waited for whatever it was to reveal itself."It's a hare! A hare!" One of the warriors exclaimed, running to Draven's car."The lights made it look huge so we thought it was a Lycan." He explained.Though Draven did not show it, relief washed over him at the information. He could not afford to endanger the lives of his warriors again after what happened the first time."Let's continue. I'll stay in front this time around." Draven replied and they continued moving.They moved in silence for miles until the trees close to the Lycan clan came into view."Drive into the trees, hide behind the trees," Draven instructed his warriors and sent Sabrin

    KadeAfter his short meeting with Draven, he was destabilized and could not do anything, especially torture Aveline. Julian was making moves to take his position in Aveline's company despite his pleas to him to reconsider.He knew that Julian wanted the position but didn't expect him to make such quick moves towards getting a position there.With the urge to do anything, gone, Kade decided to go to his room to think out some ideas.Since Julian had refused to share, he needed something else to distract him from the shares.Kade barely lay on his bed when Beatrice barged into his room, her hands on her waist and her face contoured with a frown."What is this I am hearing about you having a meeting with my son?" She asked."Get over yourself Beatrice, he came here himself, with his clown friends to speak to me." His shoulder elevated with pride. "Why would Draven come here to speak to you?" She asked thoughtfully but caught herself when she thought of the one thing that could make him

    AvelineAfter what seemed like hours after Kade left, I could not feel my legs any longer. I had been tied so tightly to the chair that my body began to feel numb.My body was a mess with blood on my thighs and my left arm. And my head banging like my brain was going to pop out of my head the next second.I wanted to scream for help but I hadn't spoken un hours and I didn't trust my voice not to come out hoarse or croaked even.Plus, I trekked my way here, and I saw how far this building was from the other buildings in the clan. Shouting might be futile but I had to try anyway."He... Help.... please... anyone..." I doubted my voice reverberated through the walls and I grew even weaker.The dim light in the room didn't help with my sight either so I was half blind. My lips were chapped from lack of food or water for almost four days now.After my ordeal in the dungeon, I had no idea how long I was kept there. And now, I've been here almost three days without food or water but constant

    Sabrina"How dare you bring me to a motel? You think I'm one of those cheap sluts you play around with as you will?" Sabrina fumed, ignoring the look of total confusion her words brought to Julian's face. "Read my lips you scumbag, I do not want to do anything of that sort with you. Hell, I don't even want to be in the same space as you are and I'm barely coping..." Sabrina was raging on and on and it seemed like the more she spoke, the more angry she became so Julian tried to calm her down."Wait, wait, you think this is a motel?" He asked with a chuckle. He had no idea why he warmed up to the lady despite her fierceness. Maybe that was what intrigued him in the first place.Sabrina stopped raving and just stared daggers at him."You think I want to do something of that sort with you?" Julian asked again, a subtle smile of amusement on his face."Of course! Why else will you bring me here instead of taking me to the hotel we booked? This is not the name of the hotel.

    JULIAN The day Julian and Sabrina were meant to travel finally arrived, and they both made their way into the private jet that was waiting for them at the airport. Immediately after they stepped inside, Julian noticed the change in Sabrina's expression, and it was quite easy for him to tell what the cause for her sudden change in expression was. “Why are the chairs so close to each other?” She questioned, slowly moving to one of them, while he moved to the other. “I am not the one that built this jet, so I have no answer to the question that you just asked me,” Julian replied as he slumped down into one. “It was a rhetorical question; you didn't need to answer it,” she replied with a quite feisty tone. “If it were up to me, I wouldn't have minded the chairs being so far away from each other,” she muttered under her breath. Julian turned to stare at her with the same amused expression that always finds its way to his face whenever his eyes land on the embodiment of beauty sittin

    Aveline I started getting worried. Not because of Betty this time around, or Sabrina or even my company, _although those always got me worried daily_This time around, I was worried because of the She-wolf who had been helping me through my recovery. I had not seen her in a while now and it was not normal for someone who always came around every morning to check in on me and keep me company, she hadn't come in for three days. I had every right to be worried. Considering what I went through in the hands of Kade.'What if he locked her up in the cell because she did something offensive?' I thought to myself with a deep sigh. She was a slave after all, and slacks are not cut for slaves in the clan. 'What if they killed her?!' My heart beat accelerated at this thought and I placed a palm on my chest to calm myself. I had to think about the positives that could happen but there were barely any positives that could happen in this shit hole of a clan where the Lycans kill for the fun o

    Draven’s office was occupied by three people, with Draven seated behind his desk on his usual office chair, while the other two occupants, Brian, his beta, and Scar, Aveline’s right-hand man, sat on the two chairs opposite where Draven was seated. “Let's not even beat around the bush, and let me get straight to the point. I called both of you here to fill you in on my plan to attack the Lycans and set Aveline free from their grasp.” His gaze moved from Brian to Scar while he spoke, paying rapt attention to the expression plastered on their faces. Just like he had expected, the only person that reacted to this news was his beta, Brian. “You know this is not something that we are supposed to rush into,” Brian said and leaned forward, placing his arm on the table, like Draven wouldn't be able to hear him due to the little distance between them. He continued before Draven could interrupt him, “These people are far stronger than we are; they are well versed in battle individually. It w

    DravenThe day was a busy one for him, it was either that or he had been so buried in Aveline's absence that he snubbed work for weeks. And it was telling on him from the pole of files on his table and the trouping in and out of his secretary into his office with more complaints and questions. Must have lost track of time with the so much work he had to handle and he only realized that when he picked up a call from a client who wanted a detailed statement of his transaction with Draven's company. Draven ran out of his office when he saw the time. He had forgotten to pick Betty from school.He drove over to her school like a man whose wife was in the hospital.When he got there he was told that Betty already left and Kade picked her up.Kade was no stranger to the school. He always picked his niece from school before he decided to show his true colors and Betty always tagged along so the teachers didn't read any meaning into his meeting with the girls."You could have called me and i

    KadeAfter his conversion with Julian, Kade decided it was better to act on his _with the last card he had to pull; getting Aveline's daughter, Betty._He had not shown his face since he got to Julian's clan and had his friend handle his business while he was away but everything was not going as planned so he had to take desperate measures."Hey, sis!" Kade greeted over the phone as he got in his car."Am I talking to a ghost? You have been gone for so long that I began to think that my dear cousin is now a ghost!" The woman exclaimed from the other end of the call."I had to handle some serious business and it took more time than anticipated," Kade replied with a calm voice."You got me worried. And your niece had been asking after you all week!" She replied. "I'm sorry I got you worried. You know what? I'm coming into town today, can I stop by the house for a good lunch? You know I've missed your nice dishes." Kade asked and just like he expected, the woman had no issue with hostin

    AvelineI have not set my eyes on Kade since the last time he came to my room. It was hard finding out what happened between Kade and Julian because I was still healing and had been falling in and out of sleep.The she-wolf who has been helping me had suddenly been distant. She doesn't spend as much time with me anymore, claiming that I need my rest. So I had only the books she gave me for consolation. However, on this faithful morning, I woke up and I didn't feel sleepy after some seconds of being awake so I got down from the bed.My wounds were almost healed since I'd been resting well and taking my meds. I still felt weak but it wasn't as much as the first week and the pains had reduced to a faint feel.I staggered to the door and was surprised that it wasn't locked from the other side.Perhaps, this has anything to do with what the guards said about King Julian's order to let me be.Two guards were manning my door and they shifted their gaze to me when I walked out but they did n

    Sabrina The days moved by so fast and the closer the date of her meeting with Julian drew near, the more anxious she became.How could she be in a meeting with a man who provoked her every being? The fact that Aveline was being held hostage in his clan was not doing anything to reduce the anger she felt towards the man."Hello, Aunty." Betty's light voice cut through the angry woman's thoughts and she stared towards the door."Hey, sweetheart. How long have you been there?" Betty was glued to the side of the half-opened door, staring at her mother's friend with so much adoration. It would be no surprise if Betty said she was looking up to Sabrina as a role model. The woman was fierce and still so sweet. She had a large heart but never hesitated to call out anyone who was in the wrong."Not long. I just came by when I heard you were going out soon." Betty replied with a shrug.Sabrina smiled as she gestured to the girl with open arms."Come here, child." Betty ran into her embrace.

    JulianJulian found himself looking forward to seeing Sabrina again and it got him excited as he reminisced about the last time he got on her nerves. They were supposed to have a meeting concerning their collaboration."Kade is asking to see you, my king." One of the guards announced with a bow by the door just as Julian was about to leave the room."He's here for what?" Julian asked as nonchalant as he could be."He said he had been trying to speak to you since the evening of your return from your first meeting at Aveline's office. He's been going mad about it and threatening to break in if we do not let him in." The guard replied. Making Julian stifle a laugh."Typical of him. Let's hear what he wants to say." Julian stepped out, to meet Kade pacing like a hungry lion waiting for its food to be served."You want to see me?" He asked Kade who wore a frown."You didn't let me in your chambers? Why is that?" Kade asked, fuming.He was pissed enough that he was no longer regarded as t
