Sheer deadly silence echoed in the hall as everyone froze hearing her claim. Silvia clutched Aurora's hands as she tried to hide in her embrace. "Aurora he...he didn't g...give me food for days. He kept me tied to a chair for more than 24 hours. He won't let me use the bathroom," Silvia sobbed. "Look..." She whispered, pulling the collar of her shirt down and showing the bruise on her neck. "He choked me... I thought... I thought I'd die. It hurts..." She sobbed touching her wrists. "What do you mean he kept you tied to a chair?" Rasmus asked, his voice sounding gravelly. "A few days back Alonso had sent me to deliver his message to the Alpha king. I was drained of all my m...magic so we had no choice but to take cars. Just so I won't e...escape he sent so many of his men with me. Then we were attacked. They forced me to use my magic so we could escape. I tried to use it but I lost my consciousness. The next time I woke up..." She glanced at Hunter fearfully. "I... I found myself
The doctor rushed inside as everyone stepped back. Xander stood near the door as the doctor cleaned the blood and checked her nose. He said her bone was intact. As he continued to check on her, he requested Emma to stay in while the rest could wait outside. Everyone stepped out but panic started to build inside her as she refused to remove her shirt. "No, I'm fine." She said, shaking her head as Emma came to her side. "Wait," The doctor said as he stepped out and fifteen minutes later a female doctor was sent inside along with a nurse. Silvia let the lady doctor do whatever she wanted while Silvia lay there aimlessly staring at the ceiling. Emma's eyes widened seeing a bruise on her shoulder. "You can go outside, I'm fine," Silvia said softly as Emma's heart twisted in pain. She was so badly hurt yet the girl wasn't crying and just aimlessly looking at the wall. Emma came to her side gently holding her hand. They gave her anesthesia and she drifted into a hazy blur. The last t
"Arghhhhhh!" He growled throwing punches after punches at the punching bag. The gym was empty and his growls were booming in the huge gym while he thrashed the punching bag. The earlier events reeled in his head making him see all red. He felt like killing someone. "You seem hungry for blood," A deep voice echoed from behind him. He didn't have to turn around to know who it was. "Not for yours, so leave me the f*ck alone," Hunger growled, throwing another punch. Sweat droplets trickled down his forehead as his nose flared. He should've killed her then all of this wouldn't have happened. "This won't help Hunter," The person said calmly, coming to lean against the wall with his arms folded over his chest. Hunter paused holding the punching bag turning to glare at Luca whose silver-gray orbs peered at him with interest. "Then what would? Enlighten me," He grumbled, raking fingers through his wet hair. His shirt was drenched in sweat and now clung to his body. He pulled it off,
He made a ruckus in his room. There was lava bubbling inside him. He was losing his calm. He just wanted to protect his family and now this very family was mad at him all because of that girl. Why the f*ck she wasn't telling him the truth or the things she was hiding? Hunter had enough of this. He couldn't sleep the whole night and the next morning he was grumpy, with tired eyes, and a severe headache. He took a shower and went down for breakfast which was a big mistake. The atmosphere tensed as soon as they saw him. He quietly took his seat beside Angela. Everyone continued to eat, ignoring his presence. His mother didn't even look at him for once while Rasmus kept glaring at him. This was aggravating. He quietly ate his food rather quickly and excused himself from the table. He waited near the kitchen for his mother to show up. Emma came a few minutes later holding a tray in her hand. "Mom," Hunter said but she ignored his existence and walked past him. His heart felt uneasy
Hunter heard a commotion from downstairs as he stepped into the lounge only to find Draken there and the whole family present. He felt left out. Draken saw Hunter and he pulled to his feet. He tipped his head before walking out. Hunter glared at his retreating before stepping outside with him. "What?" Hunter said sharply as Draken regarded him with narrowed eyes. "You could've informed me that Silvia was with you. Do you realize you wasted three of my days while my pack was left behind unprotected?" Draken grated as Hunter tilted his head. "If you don't trust your warriors with your pack then they are useless," Hunter said plainly, causing Draken's jaw to tick. "Just a reminder. You offered yourself on a silver platter to be King's son-in-law. He might not like it if he finds you messing with a witch, better enlighten him that you're searching for Alonso before the King thinks of something stupid. He might have his men keeping eyes on you," Draken said coolly as Hunter gnashed hi
Hunter barged inside the old abandoned factory. He wasn't alone. Three of his men were with him. Hunter has come along with Aurora and Draken saying he won't let them go alone as security should be tight because of Alonso. To his surprise, none of them said anything, and also Aurora didn't ask for Silvia to come along with her. And to his shock, Aurora scolded him for going into Silvia's room and then thanked him for apologizing to Silvia which he never did and never would, this means Silvia lied to Aurora about Hunter apologizing to her. This also indicates Aurora thinks Hunter apologized to Silvia and she forgave him. But no matter what Hunter won't forget how Silvia turned his whole family against him.After dropping Aurora and Draken into their pack's territory, Hunter along with his men went to check out Alonso's men's hideout which Silvia told him about. As soon as Hunter barged in he was met with a couple of burly men that reek of night Walker pack. He motioned his men to a
The bruises on her skin have faded away and she looked a bit refreshed, not her ghost-like appearance where she resembles a corpse most of the time. Her silky black hair was long reaching her hips. They were as straight as an arrow moving softly with the humming breeze. She was walking back and forth with an emotionless face. Her pace was calm and composed as if she was deep in thought. She was wearing one of Aurora's sundresses. Her eyes fixated on the ground. He also noticed that her slippers lay near the bench as she walked on the grass barefoot. Hunter's mind went back to the scene where she provoked him deliberately and he shook his head. He didn't want to ponder on it more. There were more crucial matters to deal with. Hunter still stood there watching her. She was small and fragile but he won't say the same for her mind. From what Hunter could gather Silvia was sharp, witty, and extremely clever. She ain't no damsel in distress. The game she played on Hunter was competent.
"Can I help?" Silvia asked softly as Emma turned around to give her a surprised look. "No, dear. You're a guest. We don't make our guests work. You should rest," Emma said, making the dough as the rest of the cooks were busy with other chores. "Please, let me help you. I feel claustrophobic in my room," She said in a small voice and Emma's eyes softened. "Come here," She called the girl inside as Silvia made her way to Emma in the kitchen. Emma made a mental note to do the shopping for Silvia or ask Agatha to bring Silvia's stuff to the pack house as she would stay here for a while. "Can you cook?" Emma asked, earning a nod from Silvia. "Wanna cook something for yourself?" Emma questioned and Emma looked at her a bit surprised before nodding. "Can I cook steak for everyone?" She asked hesitantly and Emma smiled. "Of course," Emma asked the cook to provide all the ingredients to Silvia, and the girl began to cook. Silvia made steaks and Emma tasted them, she compliment
