Anger reeled in her body, and she began to advance backward slowly but the men advanced towards her, giving her a lustful look that made her blood boil. She doesn't know how to explain it but the thought of men disgusts her, at the moment she wishes to slay all those men that had killed some of the witches. She steps back slowly till her back hits the wall, the men kept advancing until the first one that spoke raised his hand to halt all movements. "If you come near me, I swear to the goddess I serve, you'll regret it." She swore venomously, her breath becoming heavy and unsteady.The men looked at each other and another peel of laughter escaped their mouths. The one in the front began to advance towards her, covering a few inches.Zoey didn't move, she stayed there, her back seemingly glued to the wall... She waited for him to come to her, eyes burning with fury. "You're such a spitfire, let's see how good you are." He muttered, his voice husky and filled with hatred. He grabbed
The jaded feelings that rushed through Zoey's being when she heard his voice was inexplicable. The pain that crushed every cell in her body when she laid eyes on the monster that destroyed her family is greater than the physical pain her body is feeling. Lucifer's claw stopped right on her breast swell when he heard his Alpha's order. Confusion spread across his face and he began to wonder why the Alpha would ask him to stop. He wants to kill her and the urge to give her a miserable death was high in him. "Drop her." Another sharp order came from him and Lucifer dropped him despite the look of confusion laden on his face. Zoey whined in pain as her body made rough contact with the hard floor, she cussed angrily when she noticed one of her breasts was barely covered. She was quick to repair her torn cloth while still cussing Lucifer. Zachary observed the scene before him and the anger he didn't wish to feel overcame him, when he saw her in pain, his body boiled to such an extent th
Zoey was dragged roughly by one of the warriors from the dungeon after their alpha declared that she can live. The stench of blood welcomed her immediately she was outside the dungeon. Along with the sunrise, dead bodies welcomed her. She suddenly felt nauseated due to the cruel way the witches were killed. Most of the dead bodies were either missing one part of their body or almost all their body parts were ripped away. The warrior dragging her fling her outside like she weighed nothing, she hit the floor with a thud, a painful cry erupted from her mouth and the warriors began to laugh at her. Tears fell from her eyes, the pain and guilt tearing through her heart was something she can not contain in so letting them out as tears was the best thing she could do. She's not crying because of the physical pains being inflicted on her, her cries were due to the horrible and scary sight right in front of her. More tears streamed down her eyes when reality hit her. She's responsible for
"Let her dress up and eat, we have a long way ahead of us. As for now, follow me, we need to bury the men we lost." Zach grumbled and began to move but Lucifer's question brought him to a stop. "What if she runs away?"A low chuckle escaped him and it amused everyone. "She won't go very far in those legs of hers, and besides she has no one where to go, she'd been ousted by her own people. They didn't take her along, that explains why she's still in the dungeon... Alone." He replied, emphasizing on his last words and quickly made his way out, his men were quick to follow him. Zoey stared at them and new tears began to form in her eyes, she knew she'd been abandoned but hearing it from him was something that's so painful that she couldn't comprehend or control the tightening painful sensation that formed in her chest. The pain was so powerful that it brought tears to her eyes, a huge lump formed in her throat and she began to shiver again, goosebumps covering her whole body. She dr
"Alpha?" A voice called his name to break the trance he was lost in. Zoey had gotten his whole attention that he got lost while looking into her eyes. His fingers itched to wand her wet hair and had he not heard his name, nothing would have stopped him. He looks at the dead body that gave her shock and discovered that it was one of the witches he'd killed, the particular one decaying on the floor was a surprise for him because he'd killed her immediately after she killed Lucien in their last attack, how she was still alive was something that baffled him but he doesn't care... He doesn't care if he has to kill her a thousand times. He shook the effect off immediately and turned towards the voice, "Yes?""We're ready to move." He announced.He looked towards Zoey whose expression was blank, "Let's go."He ordered, taking some steps away from her. "I need to get my bag." She muttered and hurried away before he could say anything. He wanted to stop her but he couldn't, he needs to get
The chains that shackled Zoey's hands and legs were beginning to hurt her as she struggled with them; her hands were pulled up by chains and her legs were held tightly apart by chains. She's left dangling in the air like some dead animal on display for sale, precisely a pig. She got into her current position immediately after they got into the pack, Zach's pack is huge and beautiful, most of the werewolves that saw her immediately after she entered the pack either sneered at her or stared at her curiously. The alpha had ordered that she gets tied to the chains at the front of the large pack house and his order was carried out immediately by Lucifer who made sure the chains are extra tight on her soft skin, causing some minor scratches and deep pain on her skin. The pack members don't look welcoming to her but they were in jubilant mode because the Alpha had gone to war against the witches and conquered them in a way no one had been able to do. It was indeed a victorious war becaus
The night had been terrible for Zoey; it was the worst night of her life but she knew she had to get used to it because that's what her life is all about now. The exposed part of her body burnt with stings of insects that would not allow her a wink of sleep, her chain legs and hands hurt so bad that they begged to rest but she was helpless against the strong chains.She'd promised herself to take on the pain without any fuss but nothing is easy with her, no one can get used to such a torturous lifestyle... but she's not anyone, she's Zoey and she'll take it all in as long as she breathes. The sunrise brought some reduction and relief from some of the insects but their stings hurt and itched. She's glad she couldn't reach them to itch because, with the intensity of her skin itches, she could use her fingers and peel her skin. She began to hear noises coming in her direction, not wanting to encounter anyone or see the hatred and disgust in their eyes for her, she immediately shut her
"Unchain her!" Zach ordered and two warriors immediately came forward.Zoey still finds it hard to believe till she feels the chains getting unlocked. She was expecting Zach to use the whip on her when he took it away from that devil of a man but he didn't.She is relieved and at the same time scared of what he has in store for her... Is he planning to torture her more or has he finally decided to pardon her? It's all funny to her, she did nothing to incur his wrath but he's torturing her as if she's responsible for all the miseries in his life.He is the one who wronged her, betrayed her, and killed the people she considered family... She's supposed to be the one to punish him for all the wrong he'd meant out on her but right now, the reverse is the case, she's the one getting punished for a crime she didn't commit. Life's air to her. He should have his fun while he can become once she gets a chance, she'll make him die in the cruelest way possible. Cruel is an understatement to t
Chapter twenty-nine: Mistress Of Seduction. Zach's eyes were fixed on the woman lying on his bed, her scent crawling into his every cell, all the cells in his body acknowledged her, they were aware of her tempting body, aware of her every curve, her boobs swell and darn it! He quickly turns around, he's not supposed to be thinking about her in that way, he's not supposed to care about how sexy she was looking, how much he wants to have a feel of her body, how badly his fingers itches to touch every part of her body... He fucking wants her, he wishes to have her but he would never have her. Not because he's unable to but because he had decided not to. His mother was right about the mate pull, it is irresistible, it's something that's hard to defy but he shall defy it. He can never have Zoey despite wanting her so much. His wolf whined but he ignored him, he turned around to wake her up, and give her a sound warning never in her pathetic life should she step into his room but when h
Chapter twenty-eight: Tempting Zoey... "Mom, I told you, I'm well. Can I go to bed now, please?" Zach asked his mother who was keenly observing him. Zach's eyes trail to that of his mother's and a low sigh escaped his lips when their eyes locked. He was a t a loss for what to say or do. "Honey, I don't want you to think that I'm snooping into your life. Even if I'm doing that, it's for your best, you're my son and I have every right to be worried about you." She explained calmly and a smile graced Zach's face. He looked relieved now He doesn't know what or how to make his mother believe that he's well, those stupid pack members have ways of spreading rumors, it spreads faster than a communicable disease. He doesn't know what to do when it comes to their gossip, it was becoming annoying but there's nothing much he can do about it. That's a natural talent the goddess had bestowed upon them. It's actually doing more harm than good to him, now he has to listen to his mother's di
Chapter twenty-seven: Tempting Bed. Zoey's eyes were fixed on Zachary's room as she cleaned the floor, it was her turn to scour the whole house pack tonight and she must testify that it's one of her best yet worst jobs in the pack. It was best because she gets to clean the whole place during the night when there'll be few people stepping on the place she'd already cleaned and worse because she won't be sleeping early.After the incident this morning, gossip was following her everywhere she went. It astonished her that they thought she'd charmed their alpha. Like seriously? Had she charmed him, she wouldn't be a servant here. Had she used magic on him, she would have made him pay dearly for ever messing with her and her people.They had such a great misconception about her and she couldn't help but find it funny because whatever they were thinking was wrong, totally erroneous. She would never have been here right now had she not done something stupid as trusting a man! She'd have
Chapter twenty-six: Relief And... Fear. The whole atmosphere became extremely apprehensive after everyone saw the alpha slap a warrior in the pack in front of the pack members all because of a servant, just because of a mere servant who wasn't even a wolf, the alpha had angrily slapped one of his best warriors because he'd misbehaved with her. The servants in the pack are like prostitutes and many wolves take them for pleasure without their authorization. There has never been a case where a servant would reject the advances of any privileged werewolf to lay with her, such servants that got such advances become happy because there are always advantages that come along with having intimacy with high-ranking wolves, any servant considers herself lucky if any high ranking wolves look their ways. But here is Zoey, she's not even a werewolf, she's a core enemy of the pack, her family had killed many in the pack and the Alpha favored her by making her a servant and she's still putting her
Chapter twenty-four: Enraged. The slap echoed in the room, her breath uneven, anger ripping every part of her body apart. How dare he!? She might be a servant here but that doesn't make her a prostitute like the rest of the servants. "You bitch! How dare you!?" The man that got slapped cussed and made to grab her but she dodged and went to the other side of the room.She immediately changed her mind about dodging him because he can speed up and strangle her to death with the way he was staring at her now. She was about to rush out of the room when she felt something hit her leg and she fell to the floor, a scream escaping from her mouth. Zach's head turned towards the direction he heard a scream, he wasn't the only one that heard it, everyone in the cafeteria heard it as well but only he knew that the voice belonged to Zoey. He stood up from his table, his beta stood up too wondering what was up with Zach. As much as he wanted to ignore the voice and pretend that nothing was hap
Chapter twenty-four: Indirect Protection.The pack's cafeteria was huge and beautiful. Zach might be an asshole but he takes care of his people and his people love, fear, and respect him. Zoey took in a deep breath as she made her way into the cafeteria, she was in charge of cleaning the whole darn cafeteria today and she knew the pack members in the cafeteria would make her day miserable by creating unnecessary mess in the cafeteria. Immediately she steps into the cafeteria, hateful glances are shot towards her, if looks could kill, the ones they've been given her would kill her within seconds. She made her way to the cleaning room to grab the cleaning equipment and set to work. It has been two weeks ever since she started working as a servant in the pack and those two weeks were hell on earth for her, even her fellow servants despised her, she'd made a few friends but they only talk to her secretly for fear of incurring the wrath of pack members and fellow servants. Zoey tried t
Chapter twenty-three: Her Fate. Zoey was halted in the middle of the ball, all eyes were on her, most depicted hatred while some showed a hint of admiration and then hatred when they realized who she was. She looked up despite trying hard not to and their eyes locked, she eyed him warily. This was a frightening man; she trusted him at her own peril. Best to keep silent and wait for his justice. She immediately looked down, trying hard to control her heartbeat, they are werewolves, she shouldn't allow them to smell her fear of the unknown and uncertainty in her destiny. She must wait patiently and see what blow destiny had to offer her this time around. She was aware, all the while, that Zach and everyone watched her. His face was dark with hidden thoughts, a brooding intensity that made her uneasy. What was it about him that always makes her uneasy? Shook his thoughts out of her head. Brace yourself Zoey and stop being a chicken. She cautioned herself and she felt herself relaxe
Chapter twenty-two: What's Her Fate? Zoey ignored most of the pack members staring at her in disgust, she was used to their looks of mockery and hatred ever since she came into the pack, the pack healers refused to heal her a few days ago when she was brought for treatment. People used to give him disdainful looks but they never do it much in the open because there was one person within their midst that loved her and that was Anastasia, she'd always been there for her to shower her with love and care but here in this pack, not a single soul liked or pitied her. They looked like they wanted to kill her at any slightest opportunity they have but they could not because their alpha hasn't decided her fate. Most hauled abuses and curses at her, they wish her the most painful death and destruction... She ignored most of the curses because they do not and can not have any effects on her, she did nothing to them nor does she wish them harm. When she doesn't have any ill wishes against the
"That's not the only reason I'm keeping her here." He announced and everyone turned to give him their full attention. "She needs to stay here because I need her." He added and that only heightened the confusion of everyone present. Why would the Alpha need a petite witch like Zoey? A deep murmur began between the elders and Zach looked at them with a satisfied grin on his face, he loves it when he causes some confusion among them. Create a riddle their wise brain can't solve, he's the only one who could clear their misunderstanding. Just him. Lucifer looked at the alpha, he cocked his eyebrow when he saw the smirk on his face, he was enjoying the confusion he'd caused. Now he understands why his father called him a demon incarnate. "Enough!" A loud order came from him and everyone in the hall went silent, heads turned to look at him. "Why do you all keep arguing amongst each other? I'm the one you all need to ask but you all are asking each other." He s
