Hunter plopped down on the bench in the garden as the girl awkwardly stood beside him before she sat down as well, a little away from him. Hunter watched her knee bouncing as she fidgeted with her fingers. She was anxious. "What's your name?" He asked after the longest time. "Violet," Was her innocent reply. Good Lord, this girl looked so naive and soft. How would she survive with a monster like Hunter? "When will you turn 18?" Hunter asked, eyeing her keenly and her face visibly paled. "I...In two and half months," She stuttered looking scared and he realized what must be going on inside her head. "Cool," He muttered and Violet stiffened. The bouncing of her knee intensified. Swallowing down the lump in her throat she snuck a glance at him. He was handsome beyond words but his personality was rotten through and through. How would she survive with him? She breathed in deeply trying to calm her erratically beating heart down as she stared at his hand that was on the be
"No one doubts me. Yes. Yes." A fleeting pause. "Yes, I'll keep in contact," She said and after that, there was slight shuffling followed by silence. Hunter stepped back glaring at the door as vicious lava began to boil inside him and all he saw was red. He could kill her then and there. Dispose of her body and tell his family that Alonso had abducted her. It would be easy. He'll deal with his family. He should kill her now before it becomes a bigger problem. Now he knows that his instincts weren't wrong and she was working for Alonso all along pretending to be naive and all in front of his family. That deceitful little thing. He was gnashing his molars in rage. Hunter took yet another step back as he shoved his fingers through his hair. Breathing in deeply he quietly walked away from her room before he ended up doing something he would regret later. Once inside his room, he poured himself cognac, getting rid of his jacket he sat on the couch sipping his drink in the dark sile
Her ears were ringing as she tried to comprehend if she heard him right. She could feel his hard muscles flushed against her soft frame and it made her immensely uncomfortable. Panic started to build in as her struggles grew frantic and sweat trickled down her forehead. She didn't want to break down in front of him like this. "You've no manners or any shame. Let go of me," She demanded sharply, pushing at his chest but he didn't budge. He just observed her like a hawk. Silvia wasn't looking him in the eyes, she couldn't. Her heartbeat had shot to a reckless pace. She tried to stop the trembling but it wasn't in her control anymore. He leaned further close and her heart almost lurched to her mouth when she felt his hot breath on her skin. The voices inside her head went dead silent and all she could think of at that moment was to scream for help but to her surprise Hunter let her go but he didn't step back. Silvia grabbed the railing as she staggered a step back. Her legs were tre
Hunter barged inside only to find a pool of blood in which dead bodies lay and to his relief, none of them belonged to his pack. Sheer silence echoed amidst the massacre. Rasmus' scent was thick in the air but he wasn't there. Hunter further walked inside and then to the second floor from where he was hearing grunts and cries. Panic surged in. Though he knew Rasmus won't go down so easily no matter how strong the enemy was, still he was worried sick for his brother. Hunter kicked open the door of the huge hall and in front of him stood Rasmus and a couple of warriors from the Moon pack while two men were tied with silver chains and they were kneeling on the floor. "Rasmus," Hunter breathed as if life came back to his soul. "Hunter," Rasmus' brow raised in surprise before his eyes followed the girl standing behind Hunter. "What are you doing here? Why is she here? It's not safe for Silvia," Rasmus said, walking over to them. Hunter noticed blotches of blood on his face a
"What about today? Why lie to Rasmus and get your men killed and tortured like this?" "Small sacrifices are important for big achievements," She said. "And also, now Rasmus trusts me even more." Of course, Rasmus would surely think she was helping him in getting close to Alonso but it was a part of the plan all along. "This is the first time I felt that you're being truthful," Hunter rasped, eyes still closed. Posture relaxed as he took in deep breaths, holding her hand firmly. Silvia did not attempt to free her hand though it was sweaty. "This is the first time I'm telling the truth," She said. "What's Alonso's plan?" "I'm afraid I can't reveal that," She said. "What would you get out of this?" He asked. "Peace," Was her quick response. Hunter let out a deep throaty chuckle as his chest vibrated lightly. His eyes opened slowly as he blinked once before straightening on the chair. He was just like the calm before the storm. They were in the middle of nowhere. An abandoned war
"Alpha, shall we choose on our own," The girl asked looking at Hunter hopefully. Hunter glanced at her before tilting his head. Permitting them. Everyone took in a breath of relief as the trainees scattered around to choose their sparring partners. "Wait," He said, holding his hand behind his back as he regarded them sternly. "Y'all have been training for months. So you must be aware of each other's strengths. I want you guys to challenge the strong contenders," Hunter said as sparks glinted in their eyes. Hunter saw as three of the guys walked in the same direction toward the tall brown-haired guy. "It's up to you how many challenges you want to accept or reject." Hunter continued, watching three fit and strong trainees challenging the brown-haired guy who accepted the challenge. A circle was made and the sparring started between two girls. Hunter watched with the rest of the trainees as he kept explaining their mistakes and good points for the others to learn. The brown-haire
Hunter punched the guy who groaned in pain. Blood dripped from his lips as he wheezed. "We don't know anything. You can kill us. Beating us would get you nowhere," The bruised guy breathed. One of his eyes was fully swollen while the other was red with tears. There was no one in the slammers. Hunter had asked the guards on the watch to step outside and leave him alone with these f*ckers. Hunter has asked Rasmus to let him interrogate Alonso's men that he captured from the warehouse. "Silvia planned all this. Didn't she? She would get you guys killed because of her so-called plan and you both are ready to die?" Hunter asked calmly, tilting his head. They refused to answer. "Fine. Don't answer me. Just tell me that you guys are ready to die for her," Hunter said, pulling out his phone as he began to make a video of them. "We work for Alonso," He said. "Of course, so Silvia ordered you to sacrifice your life for Alonso's plan," Hunter said. "We don't know who Silvia is,"
Silvia tried to stay calm as she kept her eyes locked with Emma. "Because Alonso couldn't get me back he is framing me. How did he know that I am here? He plans to get me killed." Silvia said as tears kissed her cheeks. "I'm a seer. He knows he can't use me now so he didn't want me to help you guys either," She enunciated in a trembling voice as her chin quivered. "There has to be a mole in this pack who informed Alonso that I'm here because then how would these guys know my whereabouts?" She wiped her tears. "Please, I'm being framed here. He didn't want me to help you guys." She said but Emma stayed quiet. Silvia turned towards Rasmus as she walked over to him. "Rasmus, you were interrogating those guys before Hunter and I showed up. Did they tell you anything then? Did they say all this? Did they attack you as if they were waiting for you or you took them off guard with a sudden attack?" Silvia asked hopefully looking up at Rasmus. "They were taken off guard by our sudden att
