Lyra POV" Morning, Aria," I gave a quick stretch as soon as I woke up.My eye were fully blur,which made me to use my arms to clear it out.After a deep inhale and exhale.I turned over, to see Aria, but no one was in her sleeping spot.At first, I just felt relaxed and think otherwise, but as time passed by she was quite no way to be found.I wasn't just relaxed at all and it was eating me up.I walked up to one of the other captive's." Sorry, have you seen Aria," I asked with a smile." No," the man replied with a rude look.I asked the next, and then I asked so much people and my sadness was visible.My mood immediately changed, with sadness eating me up.When u thought I already had a Friend that I can take as a sister, then someone came up and took her away from me.I sat down there with thought, as the voice from outside caught me ." Lyra, come here," I just tried ignoring the words at first and turn away, but it quite wasn't working." You bastard, I am talking to you," i fe
Lyra POVI sat in the cold, damp corner of the cell, knees pulled to my chest, the walls around me closing in tighter by the hour. My body ached from the transformation, the painful reminder of my failure—rejected by my family and pack and left to rot in this godforsaken prison I was sold too. The air was thick with lot's of despair, and I had almost forgotten what it felt like to hope for anything beyond survival.The door creaked open, and a young guard stepped in. He was looking new, barely in his twenties, but there was something unsettling about the way he looked at me, his blue eyes flickering with something that made my skin crawl and inch for answers."You have a visitor, Lyra," he said, his voice too calm for someone standing before a prisoner.I tensed, my eyes narrowing with the Word's. "A visitor for myself?Who would come for me now?" I asked myself, still giving him a stinging look.The pack had disowned me already. My family had cast me aside. No one cared whether I
Lyra POVI paced the narrow space of my cell, the dream from last night still clinging to me like a shadow I couldn’t shake off. The cold, stone walls did nothing to calm my nerves, and my wolf was restless, prowling beneath my skin, sensing something was coming forth for me, but still can't explain what it was. The guard opened the door with a loud clank, pulling me from my thoughts. “You have visitors,” he said, the same disinterested tone as before in the dream.I didn’t have to ask who it was this time. There was only one person who would bother visiting me in this cell at this time.Alpha Damian, my father who was never met to be mine. He always found a way to remind me of my failures, of the expectations I couldn’t meet up with anything the pack needed. And if he was here, that meant she was with him as always.I straightened as Alpha Damian entered, his broad frame filling the room with an authoritative presence. His dark eyes, the same as mine, scanned the cell with disda
Lyra POV“Maybe I should ask for cooking lessons from the chef,” I muttered, but before I could finish my thought, the cell door swung open with a force that sent a cold gust through the room at almost same time.Alpha Dante stepped into the space, his presence suffocating the already tense air. His tall frame, cloaked in black, was unmistakable and was very visible. The man who had bought me no, claimed me towered before us, his silver eyes piercing through the dim light like twin blades. My wolf shuddered under his dominance, but I could feel her simmering beneath the surface, waiting for the moment to lash out."Enough," Dante growled, his voice cold and final, sending warnings at almost same period.My father, Alpha Damian stiffened, his mouth set in a hard line as he faced the imposing figure. My step mother looked like she’d just bitten into something sour, and Ryder as well, for once, Ryder wasn’t smirking.I swallowed hard, my heart pounding in my chest as Dante’s gaze swept
Lyra POVThe air around me was thick with tension building up, the kind that suffocates, that makes it hard to breathe through. It had been a day since that disturbing encounter with the man from my nightmare, but there was no time to dwell on that now. The mating ceremony was tomorrow, and I had no idea what Dante had planned towards us all. But whatever it was, it had everyone on edge—including Crystal, his second hand and best friend as claimed.The door slammed open, and there she was Crystal, with her perfect golden hair and icy blue eyes, storming in like she owned the entire place. Her gaze burned into me, filled with barely concealed hatred.“What the hell are you still doing here?” she spat, her voice cutting through the silence like a whip.I tensed, already exhausted from all the drama, but Crystal was relentless about it all. “I’m not in the mood for all of this, Crystal,” I muttered, trying to turn away from her and stay away from her usual trouble.“Oh, I’m sure you
Lyra POVI woke up to the sound of my stepmother's screeching voice, echoing through the halls of our pack's headquarters which made my heart to fly up high with fear . "Lyra you witch, get up! You have chores to do!" I groggily with sleepy eyes as I opened my eyes, rubbing the sleep from my gaze at my step mother. My small room was dimly lit, with only a sliver of sunlight peeking through the curtains that was opened up a little bit. I hated this room my step mother insist I stay in, hated the way it felt like a prison cell to me.I swung my legs over the side of the bed, my feet dangling in the air with Still sleepy filled eyes . My stepmother, hated it when I didn't move fast enough, so I forced myself to stand up , despite the exhaustion weighing me down since I just work up from a few minutes sleep. I had barely slept last night, haunted by the same nightmares that plagued me every time I closed my eyes to have a rest after the day job and stress and pass through.As I immed
Lyra POVI felt like I'd been punched right in the gut, my breath knocked out of me with the revelation have been presented with this time." Sold? To the Dark Shadow pack? " I Just couldn't believe it at all even though I know my father and step mother hated me more than I hate myself.My father's words echoed in my mind like an alarm, taunting me like a nightmare, reminding me of my worthlessness and uselessness.I tried to speak up for myself, to beg him to reconsider his idea, but my voice caught in my throat as I made an attempt. I knew better than to defy him here, knew better than to show weakness to the whole family . So I stood there gazing, silent, as he continued to explain the arrangement he had for me."The Dark Shadow pack is willing to pay a handsome sum for you, beautiful Lyra. You'll be a valuable addition to their pack once you are in there, a new breeding wolf to strengthen their bloodlines and not make the lineage die." He smiled."Breeding wolf? " My heart sank
Lyra POVIt totally felt much like I was living in a nightmare already, a never-ending cycle of despair and hopelessness .The arrangements had been made already, and I was to be sold to the Dark Shadow pack,the most dangerous pack that I have heard about. I couldn't believe it at all. I just couldn't believe that my father would stoop so low as to sell me like a piece of property even despite happening to be his first daughter and his Omega wolf daughter.As I was led away in chains around me, I caught a glimpse of my stepmother's smug expression which made me more sad than ever.She had won finally. She had finally gotten rid of me as she had always wished for.The journey to the Dark Shadow pack was long and arduous though but I was forced to walk for hours without stop with, my wrists and ankles raw from the restraints. I was given little food and water like how I normally get from my previous house, and I began to feel weak and dizzy due to the long and not ending distance.But

Damian POV" We all have no choice but to go to the Dark Shadow pack," my Word's were like hitting chaos towards my wife and my son." Damian, that the choice you made for yourself and not for me," my wife said in a voice filled with disagreement." I'm the Alpha..." She cut off my words." You are just the alpha of the pack and not the Alpha of this house," she stood up giving me a gaze that wasn't friendly." Hey, you!" I turned to my son who gave less talk to me and his mother." I think you rejected, Lyra, so why are you interested in her now?" He asked." Why must you always say that word?" I asked."Which word?" my son, Ryder asked, his eyes sparkling with defiance toward me."Rejected," I growled, feeling a pang of guilt wash over me.Ryder shrugged. "It's the truth, Alpha. You rejected Lyra, and now you want to drag us to the Dark Shadow pack because of her."My wife, stepped forward, her voice firm and calm. "Damian, explain to me and our son why we need to go to the Dark S
Lyra POVIt already few days to the mating ceremony in the pack, and I would be more than pleased to be taken in there, as a guest.I would be love to experience others joy, even though I don't have my own joy to myself.My days in this pack have always been hell for me to enjoy in.I've never had peace for day's." Lyra, so how do you think this mating ceremony would come up?" Aria asked with her eyes locked on mine.I gave a short grin." I've never been to one before, so I don't know yet; but I just pray it happens peacefully and everyone getting there mate's " I gave a sigh as soon as u ended my words.She just gave a nod, in support of my words." You'd atleast know much about mating ceremony, Since you've attended one," I looked into aria eyes." It was a disaster and I don't want to say it, " she faked her smile to me.Aria's fake smile faltered at almost same time, and she looked away, her eyes clouding over. "Let's just say.... it, wasn't what I expected to happen," she said
Lyra POV" What happened?" Aria asked as soon as I got into the cell room." Nothing much," " How can you say that?" She asked.I looked into her eye, giving a nasty look to her.She also gave me a look that shows what I can't just read out." Why that look?" She asked." Aria, please let me be," I said pushing her aside and going to pick up a bench to sit on.As soon as I sat down, the thoughts of the previous event still was familiar in my head and was quite hard for me to forget about that.I sat on the bench, trying to shake off the lingering thoughts of Alpha Dante's touch over me on the previous night.But Aria wouldn't let up with her questions, that made things worse."Lyra, what happened last night?" she pressed, her voice laced with concern and pity.I sighed, running my hands through my hair with confusion on how I could begin to explain myself."Alpha Dante... he kissed me last night," I admitted, my voice barely above a whisper to her ears.Aria's eyes widened with shock
Lyra POV{ Dark Shadow pack }He walked into the cell when almost everyone was fast asleep and wondering about, how there life would be.Myself and Aria slept close to each other after the long discussion we both had, ealier.I felt the feeling of someone passing me by, with cold feet. I opened up my eyes at once gazing at the man at my front." Who are you?" I asked.His voice was so thick and bold, that woke few people around.Aria, stood up same time I stood up from the bare floor with fear of what the man was doing right at my front." What do you want from me?" I pushed him trying to defend myself.He took few steps backward, and looked at me." Who are you?" Aria asked.The stranger's eyes locked onto mine, while I gazed at him with anxiety, his gaze piercing through the dimly lit cell. His features were chiseled, sharp jawline and piercing blue eyes that seemed to see right through me, and that just made me so scared like never before."I'm Guard Thompson," he said, his voice
