Eden tried to escape, but it was futile. The men had beaten her to a pulp, and she was too weak to fight back. She stumbled and fell, her body aching with pain. She tried to crawl away, but they caught her, dragging her back to the dark cell after they had been torturing her for hours.As they kicked and punched her, Eden felt like she was in a nightmare, unable to wake up. She could hear someone laughing in the shadows, and she felt like she knew who it was. Diana. It had to be her.Eden tried to gather what little strength she had left and fought back, but it was no use. One of the men hit her from behind, and she fell to the ground, vomiting blood. She felt like she was going to die, but she refused to give up.With all the energy she could muster, Eden managed to get on her feet and stumbled towards the corner where she heard the laughter. She was determined to confront Diana, to ask her why she had done this to her.As she reached the corner, she saw Diana standing there, a smirk
Eden's heart leaped with joy as she heard the news that Kylian was searching for her. Diana had been lying all along."Thank you," she whispered to the Alpha, a half-assed smile on his lips. "Will you allow me to leave now that Kylian is looking for me?"The Alpha paused, his gaze flickering over her. "Yes," he finally said. "I will let you go, but not without a price."Eden's heart sank. She had known that there would be a catch. "What is it?""I want to make a deal with you," the Alpha said, his eyes glinting. "If I let you go, I want you to make me a promise.""What kind of promise?""That you will make Kylian's pack your alibi. You were very close to him, were you not?"Eden felt a pang of guilt. "Yes," she said. "I will do it. It's only fair."The Alpha nodded, seeming satisfied. "Very well. But there is one condition. You must stay in our pack for a while longer, until the news of your survival has spread. We don't want anyone to know that you're alive just yet.""Why not?" Eden
She was trying to make herself as small and as silent as possible. She held her breath, hoping the men wouldn't find her. From her hiding spot, she could see their feet as they stepped into the room. One of the men was tall and muscular, with short-cropped hair and a square jaw. He wore a leather jacket and jeans, and Eden couldn't help but notice the way his muscles bulged under his clothes. The other man was shorter and thinner, with greasy hair and a nervous look about him. He wore a scruffy shirt and jeans that looked too big for him. As they walked deeper into the room, Eden could hear their conversation. "What's the status update?" the tall man asked, his voice deep and commanding, it was the Alpha. The other man shifted uncomfortably. "We're running a serious loss, Alpha. We're not sure how much longer we can keep this up." The tall man's lips twisted into a smile. "Not anymore. We have a secret weapon." Eden's heart pounded in her chest as she strained to hear their words
"Where is she!" One of the guards voice thundered.Panting she forced herself to her feet some of the glass had torn into her skin, she had no time to get rid of them.She limped through the pain biting her bottom lip as she hurried away from the pack, she brought out the map and tried to navigate her way to the woods.She stumbled through the dense forest, her breaths coming out in labored gasps. Her body ached with bruises and cuts, and every step felt like torture. She glanced behind her, catching a glimpse of the guards in the distance, their armor glinting in the dark light. They were getting closer, and she knew she couldn't outrun them for much longer.Panic surged through her, and she clutched at the map in her hand, her only hope back home. Using all her strength, she pushed forward, leaping over fallen trees and dodging around bushes. Her feet were sore and blistered, but she kept going, driven by the fear of capture, a zeal gnawing I'm her viens she was going to survive th
Maya paced back and forth in her chamber, anger boiling within her. How dare he come here, uninvited and unwelcome? And now he had the audacity to tell her to remain calm? She seethed, clenching her fists so tight that her nails dug into her palms. She was already facing alot she didn't want to add to it, from day one she knew it was a mistake to seek help from him but there was no other option. The rogue king stood before her with a smirk on his lips. He was tall, with broad shoulders and a muscular build. His dark hair fell in waves around his face, and his eyes glinted with a dangerous light. "What do you want?" Maya spat, barely containing her fury. The rogue king's smirk widened. "I have information that may interest you." Maya raised an eyebrow, her anger momentarily replaced by curiosity. "What kind of information?" The rogue king leaned in closer, his breath hot against her ear. "Kylian's pack has been competing with yours for territory. They've been encroaching on your l
Chapter 8Eden's heart pounded in her chest as the door to the room burst open, the sound reverberating in her ears. Her body tensed, and she found herself unable to move, paralyzed with fear. Diana's men hurried into the room, their footsteps echoing in the small space. Eden's breathing came in short gasps as she watched them search the room, her eyes wide with terror.She crouched in the corner, her body pressed against the wall, desperately trying to make herself as small as possible. Her mind raced, trying to come up with a plan, but her fear was overwhelming, paralyzing her both mentally and physically. She dared not make a sound, as if the slightest noise would give her away.The men were about to leave when Eden accidentally knocked down a small vase that had been sitting on a nearby table. The sound of shattering glass filled the room, and she winced, knowing she had been discovered. The men immediately turned their attention back to the corner where she was hiding.With wide
Diana strode into the meeting room of the Resin Moon pack, her strides purposeful and her eyes blazing with determination. She was dressed in her usual impeccable style, exuding an air of confidence and control. Behind her trailed two of her most trusted men, their expressions stern and their hands ready at their sides.The pack Alpha, Marcus, sat at the head of the table, flanked by his loyal Beta, Lucas. Marcus raised an eyebrow as Diana approached, her presence commanding attention. He didn't know much about her he felt it was an insult being approach by Kylian's play toy but still he embraced the opportunity.Any way worked as long as he got what he wanted."Welcome" He smiled and led her to a room, Diana smiled and took a seat he did the same noticing the bag in her guards hands."Well thank you for honouring my letter" Alpha Marcus planned to take the money and get rid of her.Diana wasted no time and got straight to the point. "Marcus," she said, her voice steady and assertive,
For days Diana stole from the pack's bank trying to make them go bankrupt and save them with the money she had been stealing.Kylian had gotten weak and sick and left the pack in her care, his thoughts of Eden and loss of his mate brought him to a standstill.Diana strode confidently through the dimly lit halls of the pack's territory, her heels clicking against the wooden floors. Her presence demanded respect, and her title as Luna was not just a mere formality. She had earned it through her cunning, ruthlessness, and insatiable hunger for power."Luna" a maid bowed and greeted her."How's Kylian's condition?" She asking faking concern."He's not getting better I highly recommend you call in the doct-"Good your opinions are not considered" Diana interrupted her, "Leave!" She yelled, the maid flinched then fled.She reached Kylian's room, who lay asleep on his bed. His face was pale, and he looked weak, ravaged by the mysterious illness that had befallen him. Diana approached him wit
