Chapter 4

Lyra POV

One thing that just keeps me shocked is, alpha Dante wolf, Kieran was still cool and much more gentle than his boos himself.

My wolf was a quite one who don't have issue with anyone and hardly do things if a wolf.

The cell I was kept in wasn't even favourable to me despite I was gotten to be a breeder at the new pack and for there king, Alpha Dante.

" Everyone," a man walked in with an iron armor making we all in the room to stand up with gripping fear and thought of what was about to happen.

" Lyra Jasper, daughter of Alpha Damian from the Cresent moon pack" the man on the armor screeched out as o walked out slowly with fear holding me so hard .

I felt a lump quickly formed up in my throat as I walked out.

My palms were so wet and my body feeling so weak.

" Follow me" he commanded holding my arms tight.

As I walked out of the cell with fear, I saw Kieran standing in the corner of the walls, his eyes fixed on me with a mixture of concern and gentleness wash over him which I just didn't give a concerned expression to that.

 I felt a surge of comfort knowing he was there and watching over me , but it was short-lived as the armored man tightened his grip on my arm hard. 

"Follow me you slave," he growled louder, leading me through the winding corridors of the Dark Shadow pack's headquarters which was so scary .

I stumbled upon, my legs trembling beneath me with waving fear.

 The armored man didn't hesitate, pulling me along with a rough jerk which hurt my arms really hard.

We finally arrived at a grand hall of the pack, the ceiling lost in darkness and fear.

 The room was filled with wolves of different kind, their eyes were fixed on me with a mixture of curiosity and hostility washing over them.

 At the far end of the dark shadows pack hall, I saw Crystal, her eyes blazing with jealousy and malice.

 She was flanked by two burly wolves, their faces twisted into snarls which give me huge fear .

"Ah, Lyra Jasper from the Cresent Moon pack," Crystal spat, her voice dripping with venom and malice toward me. 

"I see you're still alive and suffering in here." I stood tall, trying to hide my fear.l from her harsh character and words.

 "Crystal," I replied, my voice steady and calm.

The armored man pushed me forward not giving me a chance to talk, and I stumbled into the center of the hall .

 "Alpha Dante will see you now," he announced, his voice echoing off the walls quickly.

I saw alpha Dante, his eyes fixed on me with an unnerving intensity which I just couldn't read out. 

He was seated on a dark throne-like chair, his legs crossed with his dark attire, and a smirk playing on his lips.

"Lyra, my dear," he purred, his voice sending shivers down my spine immediately.

" He looks more like a devil" the voice said within me.

 "I see you're still as beautiful as ever." I swallowed hard, trying to find my voice that has been lost already.

 "Alpha Dante," I replied, my tone neutral and calm .

Dante's eyes narrowed to my words.

 "I hear you're still a virgin with no man hands on you and you also don't have a mate," he said, his voice dripping with excitement and joy.

 "How true is that?" I felt a blush rise to my cheeks, but I stood my ground not to reveal any of it.

 "That's none of your business, sir alpha," I replied, trying to keep my voice steady and calm .

Dante chuckled to my words, his eyes glinting with amusement while u gazed at him with pain and sorrow.

 "Oh, but it is my business since you are mine," he said, his voice dripping with menace while I gaze at him with no words anymore.

"You see, Lyra, you're here to breed for me mostly and not for the pack. And I need to know if you're still pure like a snow" I felt a surge of anger wash over me, but Kieran's gentle gaze kept me grounded with no Word's to defend myself. I knew I had to play along, for now until when u have my plans all sorted out .

"Yes, " I paused. "Alpha Dante," I replied, my voice barely above a whisper to him.

 "I'm still a virgin and haven't been mated." 

Dante's smile grew wider this time, his eyes gleaming with excitement and joy already.

 "That excellent," he purred out with excitement. 

"I'll make sure to take care of that soon enough that you wouldn't even regret a bit."

I felt a huge unlikely shiver run down my spine as Dante's gaze roamed over me like a thief, his eyes lingering on my body with was totally odd to me and my personality.

I knew I was in grave danger already, but I refused to give up this time. I would find a way out, no matter what it might take of me.

Dante leaned forward, his eyes locked on mine with me trying a way to look away from his blood filled eye.

"You know, Lyra, I've been waiting for a long time for a wolf like you to come to pack," he said, his voice low and husky with venom 

 "A wolf with your kind of strength, your beauty, and your purity and love."

I felt a wave of revulsion wash over me, but I kept my face neutral and calm not to make him hurt me.

 "I'm honored for that compliment, Alpha Dante," I replied, trying to keep my voice still steady and calm.

Dante chuckled again, his eyes glinting with amusement.

 "I think you'll find that I'm a very... attentive alpha and leader," he said, his voice dripping with menace with brought a smirk into his face.

"And I always get what I want anytime I want it"

I felt a surge of fear with his words to me, but Kieran's gentle gaze kept me grounded and firm.

I knew I had to play along with him, for now. 

But I also knew that I would never give in to Dante's demands not now or for ever. I would find a way out, no matter what it might take of me .

As Dante's words hung high in the air, I felt a chill run down my spine at almost same time. 

"I'm glad to hear that from you, Alpha Dante," I replied, with my voice calm and steady with less of guilt.

Dante leaned back in his throne like chair, a sly smile spreading across his face slowly

 "I think we'll get along just fine and happily, Lyra," he said, his eyes glinting with amusement and excitement already.

I nodded to him, trying to hide my fear again despite it was already getting visible slowly. 

But as I glanced around the whole room, I saw Kieran's eyes fixed on me again, his expression a mixture of concern and warning towards his master.

Suddenly, the once quite Crystal spoke up, her voice dripping with venom and malice.

 "Alpha Dante, I don't think this is a good idea for you to take her as your personal pup," she said, her eyes fixed on me with malice . But I just xoildny explain why she's acting like that towards me.

Dante's smile faltered with her words, and he turned to face her.

 "What are you talking about, Crystal?" growled, his voice low and menacing while she just cleared up her throat .

Crystal took a step forward to alpha, Dante, with her eyes flashing with lot of anger and malice.

 "I'm talking about Lyra the breeder, Dante," she spat still looking at me with me just looking down with clearly no words.

"She's not worthy of being our pack's breeder nor your breeder. She's so weak and pathetic to be one."

I felt a surge of anger rise up within, but Kieran's gentle gaze kept me grounded with less reaction. 

I knew I had to keep myself cool, or risk facing Dante's wrath of power.

"I think that's enough of your words, Crystal," Dante said, his voice dripping with anger also.

 "Lyra is our pack's breeder now, and she'll do as I say and do what ever I demand of her" he spat with visible anger.

Crystal's face twisted with same anger, but she knew better than to cross Dante line since he is the leader and king. 

She turned and stormed out of the room immediately, leaving me feeling shaken and scared with what her next action might be.

Dante turned to face me at one with his eyes fixed on me with an unnerving intensity.

 "I think it's time we got to know each other better, Lyra," he said, his voice dripping with menace while I raised up hear feeling disgusted with his statement.

I felt a surge of fear, but Kieran's gentle gaze kept me grounded. I knew I had to play along, for now until something can come along the line.

But as Dante took a step closer to me leaving his sitting position, I just knew I was in grave danger. 

And I wondered if I would ever escape the clutches of the Dark Shadow pack ever again.

Just as Dante was about to reach out and touch my body, a loud growl echoed through the room.

 "Alpha Dante, I don't think that's a good idea for you," a deep voice said causing a distraction.

I turned to see Kieran standing in the doorway, his eyes fixed on Dante with a fierce determination and look to his 

Dante's smile faltered immediately, and he took a step back with a kind of unexplainable look.

"And why not, Kieran?" he growled, his voice low and menacing immediately.

Kieran took a step forward to his master, his eyes never leaving Dante's face at once.

 "Because Lyra is under my own protection," he said, his voice firm and steady this time . I just looked at the both with clearly no words from me.

I felt a surge of hope within, but Dante's face twisted with anger and malice.

 "You dare to challenge me, Kieran?" 

Kieran stood his ground with his Word's, his eyes fixed on Dante with a fierce determination while I just looked at them both with confusion.

 "I'm not challenging you, Dante," he said, his voice cool.

 "I'm just protective cause I know there future."
