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
Lennox was grinning. Wide. His eyes twinkled with charm as he gazed at the love of his life donning a white gown and standing in front, hands in hands, eyes locked, smiles reflecting. Violet was the most beautiful thing that ever happened to him. And he needs to f*cking thank Silvia for shoving Violet into his life. She must've had one of her visions so she knew Violet belonged to Lennox. "You may kiss the bride." Lennox snaked his arm around her waist and tugged her to him. Their bodies flushed, his fingers grabbing the nape of her neck as he meshed his lips with hers. He kissed her like it was their last f*cking kiss. Passionate, strong, and claiming. She inclined backward as he hovered over her, holding her captive in his strong arms. He kissed her passionately, sucking in her bottom lip before chasing her lips again. As soon as his tongue plunged into her mouth to caress hers, he was in heaven. She tasted divine, like sweet wine and his eternity combined. They broke th
"Eyes on me." He rumbled that thrummed through her core. She tried to pull back but he grabbed her thighs, spread them wide, and dived down. His tongue darted out and he swiped her wetness. She gasped. Her body reacted strongly to the foreign sensation. "Lennox." She breathed, attempting to push him away but he grabbed her wrists and tugged her closer so that his face was buried in her folds. Her eyes slammed shut feeling his lips, his hot ragged breaths, wet tongue, and skilful mouth. Her body quivered. Her thighs clenching, caving him in. He grabbed her wrists with one hand and with the other he spread her legs wider. His tattooed hand stood out on her creamy white skin. His canines caressed her sensitive skin and she let out a whimper of fear mixed with raw desire that had cocooned her body in its clutches. Her wolf was going wild, fighting to come forward and peek at him to her heart's content. His lips trailed down her inner thigh and a groan of frustration escaped h
"You wanna die, boy?" Lennox asked. His deep voice startled Violet as her skin laced with goosebumps. She didn't dare turn to look at him. The expressions on Kevin's face told her enough. "I... What do you mean, king?" Kevin tried to play it cool. "Don't play dumb. You're flirting with my fiance as if you've plenty of lives to spare. Wanna waste a life or two?" Lennox growled lowly and Kevin stiffened. Angela leaned back in her chair and smirked, crossing her ankles on the table as she stared at Kevin like a winning gangsta. "He's Hunter's best friend. No doubt they do crazy things when they're jealous." Angela said blowing on her nails as if she was drying the non-existent nail polish on her nails. "It was just healthy talking." Kevin tried to cool the raging Lennox down but as soon as the words left his lips, Lennox was on him grabbing his collar as he yanked him to his feet. "Healthy talking. Dare to call her beautiful again and I'm gonna smack your teeth out. So help me God
"Are you planning on staying here?" Violet asked. "Yeah, until I'm a skilled trainer. After that, I'll coax Dad to let me go study in the States. I want to live among humans like a normal person. I'm tired of staying back at the packhouse." She said, Violet sipped her tea. Listening to her attentively. Angela had a few scratches and bruises on her from yesterday's training. She's been training for three days now and was slowly learning Kevin's patterns. She even dodged a few of his punches and kicks but he still did a number on poor Angela. "That's why I'm learning how to fight. So that I could protect myself and Hunter didn't have to send Kevin to the States with me."Violet nodded. Angela was fourteen but she had a strong will and a defiant personality. Violet couldn't help but compare her fourteen-year-old personality with Angela's. She used to be so timid and scared, would always do what she was told and never break any rule while Angela was the opposite. She was fearless, an
Lennox had never loathed himself like this before. Heck, he never regretted any of his actions. He was always satisfied with his choices and decisions. But what had he done to the most important person in his life? He f*cking ruined it. It almost felt like no matter what he'd do he won't ever be able to earn her forgiveness but he was persistent. He stayed close to her. Barely leaving her sight. If she'd sit in the library reading he'd join her and she would avoid him but he didn't care. If she was taking a walk in the garden, he'd stroll behind her. If she'd play games with her sisters he'd bug her until Emily would let him join them. He'd even prepare herbal tea for her. Sometimes she would glare at him and ignore his existence but other times she'd peek glances at him when he wasn't looking. He knew she still loved him. But she wasn't letting herself forgive him. The walls around her heart were too solid and he was the reason behind it but he knew she'll forgive him one
"You never betrayed me, Violet. I found out the truth. I... I didn't trust you, I'm f*cking sorry. You loved me all along and I f*cked up, I've hurt you, please, I'm sorry.""Doesn't matter."Lennox felt pressure behind his eyes as he dropped to his knees in front of her. She didn't even move or blink. Her eyes were fixed on him but her expressions remained the same. Blank. Indifferent. He hated it. It f*cking guts him. "Tell me what to do. I'll do it. I'll beg you for forgiveness but don't give me this cold shoulder please." His deep voice sounded pleading. Violet swallowed thickly. Her resolve was on the verge of breaking upon witnessing him like this. Without uttering a word she tried to walk past him but he circled her wrist, stopping her. "Violet-""I'm tired," She whispered in a small voice, and just like that his hold loosened and he let her go. She left his room and he sat there on the floor for some time before he pulled to his feet and tossed his weight on the bed.
Violet didn't wait a single second as she quickly wore his shirt and pulled to her feet. It reached her thighs and was so big on her, also it smelled just like him. Her wolf was so happy as she was still wagging her tail in delight while Violet on the other hand was mad and sick. She didn't wait for him to turn around and began walking back to the mansion. She left her clothes, her comfy slippers back at the tree and now she had to walk barefoot on this stony path. Violet barely took a step when in a flash she was scooped up in his strong arms making her gasp. Instinctively her arms wrapped around his neck. "Let me down," She demanded, wriggling but he didn't entertain her with an answer and kept walking. "Put me down," She gritted, now pushing at his chest. He was half naked, she noticed. His pectoral muscles flexed and she jerked her hand away as if they'd burn. She faintly glanced at the ink in his skin before diverting her gaze. She tried to push his hand off her waist but he
Violet tried to free herself but his grip was strong. His fingers pressed into her scalp messing her hair. She tried to break free, but it was of no use. He was behaving like a crazed beast. Her body trembled, sparks buzzed around her and her world surged forward wanting more. Lennox swiped his tongue on her lips and they parted. She tasted like his custom-made downfall. His destruction. He shoved his tongue against hers, caressing, slurping, tugging, biting until she moaned. Her moan was like a sweet f*cking melody to his ears. She moaned like she wanted him, like she waited for this moment like no one could earn this reaction out of her. "Lennox..." She breathed, wrenching her lips away but Lennox chased her lips and claimed them again. She was his oxygen and he was f*cking dying. She grabbed a fist full of his silver strands tugging at them harshly but he didn't feel any pain. Just carnal desire. Wild possessiveness. He was losing it and the little vixen responded. Not he
F*cking assh*le! She was never the one to curse but she was calling him every bad name in her head. She hated him so much. How could he? The look he gave her, it was obvious he was doing it deliberately. He wanted to get a reaction out of her. How easy it was for him to get under her skin. She hated herself for letting him affect her like that. Violet didn't show much reaction there but now as she was away from all eyes, she couldn't stop the anger that was rolling off her. She quietly stepped into the mansion as the staff gave her looks. Violet aimlessly walked down the hall not knowing where she was going exactly. She took the stairs and came to a pause at the terrace, and was greeted by the warm sunlight. She took a seat and relaxed back on the seat with her eyes closed as she faced the sun. She inhaled deeply to calm her wolf down who was going frantic and almost feral inside her. These were the same feelings she had when Dana confessed her liking towards Lennox but now see
