"Please, can you stop with all of these?" Kyra wanted to snap at him but her voice came out as a plea. She knew that she was under his mercy and he could do anything he wanted with her and she won’t be able to stop him. She was his property after all.She watched as Alpha Anto blinked once then twice. It was almost as if a fog cleared from his eyes because he immediately dropped his hand from her cheek and rose to his feet.Kyra held onto her bedsheet as she looked up at him, trying hard not to show how distressed she was.He looked down at her, "You can’t stop me," he said simply.Kyra took a deep breath as she tried not to glare at him. "Look, I have no idea what type of game that you’re playing, but I don’t have interest in that. I don’t want you to touch me or say I’m beautiful. You have to respect that," she told him, her voice coming out harder than she expected.‘Shut it, Kyra. If you want to survive then keep quiet.’ Her wolf snapped at her and Kyra pushed her to the back of
The girl smiled lightly as she advanced into the room to drop the tray on a table. “I was assigned to you by Alpha Anton as your personal maid. I’m Cynthia.”Kyra stared at the girl, Cynthia, in shock. She itched her ear as she thought that maybe she wasn’t hearing properly. It couldn’t be possible that she who was bought would be assigned a personal maid. It was odd."So, I will be waiting on you from henceforth. You can ask anything of me and send me on any errands.” Cynthia said, as she stood straight facing Kyra with her hands clasped together in front of her.Kyra frowned. “Is it normal for someone like me to have a maid in your pack?”Cynthia looked around uneasily. “I can’t really say anything about this matter. All your questions can only be answered by the alpha.” She smiled again and changed the topic, “Your bath is ready.”Kyra staggered to her feet, ignoring everything as she made her way to the bathroom. She slid her robe down her body, and moved to the wooden bathtub tha
Anton’s eyes were glued to the mouth of his Beta, Abraham, who was talking about something. Anton was trying his hardest to concentrate because what Abraham was talking about was an important issue that needed to be taken care of, but his mind was somewhere or more specifically on the little pregnant woman he bought yesterday for a hundred thousand dollars and brought home with him."I think it would be best if we prepare the warriors ahead. With the way the Twilight Pack is going, they are spilling blood. We cannot afford to take it lightly with them, Alpha." Abraham was saying but his brows were twitching as he felt like Anton was looking at him but not listening or registering any of what he was saying.Abraham continued to talk anyways but when he asked a question and Anton was still looking at him without saying a word, Abraham paused and called his attention .“Alpha?” After a few seconds he snapped his fingers in front of Anton’s face and called him in a firm voice, “Alpha, you
Kyra pulled down the purple blankets she’s been clutching hard until it was under her wobbling chin, trying hard not to cry again. She had been crying since she got to her room that morning after fleeing from the corridor at the mockery of the servants, and she was finding it a bit difficult to think straight.If there was something Kyra did not want to hear about then it would be Tristan’s name. Hearing his name opened up wounds she was yet to heal from and made her remember so many things she didn't want to.Things like how she opened her heart to him because they were fated mates only to have it crushed into dust when he told her that he just wanted to use her to get to her father. She wished she’d had someone to talk to her, but her father did not care about her enough for her to go to him to talk about it.Kyra was right to not go to him because what did he do when he found out? He got angry and sold her off.She shouldn’t have stepped out of this room this morning too. She shoul
“Alpha Anton picked out these dresses for you to select from and wear one to lunch.” Cynthia repeated.Kyra could not find any response to give to Cynthia after hearing that these dresses were sent to her by Anton and that she was supposed to pick one and wear it to have lunch with him now and dinner later. Why would he send her different dresses? Did he pick them out by himself? Kyra did not want to even imagine it. Why was he interested in eating with her?She could not find any response from asking herself these questions. Her shoulders slumped down as she released a defeated sigh, “Just help me with any of them.” “You don’t want to pick the one you will wear by yourself?” Cynthia looked surprised.“No,” Kyra responded, “Anyone you pick will do. I’m sure you can pick out the best, right?” She pushed the work to Cynthia. No way was she going to be selecting her dress by herself. They looked beautiful and while she must have enjoyed such activity in the past; picking out her own cl
“What?” Kyra wanted to know the reason for his amusement. Anton said nothing, instead, he jerked his chin in the direction of the chair that was directly at his right-hand side. That chair was reserved for his Luna and no one else so why was he directing her to sit there and not in that chair opposite the one he was sitting at the other end that was far from him? “Sit down, Kyra. Even if I find your face adorable when you are angry, you don’t have to fight me every time.” Anton told her and when she continued to stand there looking at him without a word, he added. “Just sit and have lunch with me, okay?” This was the second time he was giving her something or asking her to use something that was supposed to belong to his Luna. While the maids had been insulting her early this morning, she had heard them talking about the room that was given to her. Kate had a shocked reaction too when Anton said for her to be given the biggest room. “Why are you giving me things that are supposed
“I can’t hear you repeating yourself. Go ahead.” Anton tried to encourage her, oblivious to the turmoil going on in her head at the endearment he was issuing to address her, while still wearing his teasing smile that has become wider.Kyra took her eyes down so that he wouldn’t see just how red her face had become. She licked her lips that were suddenly parched before opening her mouth to thank him again, “Thank you for grabbing me. I would have fallen and hurt myself and my baby if not for you.”“Hmm,” Anton hummed softly before saying what she least expected, “Since I saved your baby’s life, what are you going to give to me to show your appreciation?”“What?” Kyra’s head snapped up quickly and Anton, whose whole attention was focused on her, winced, scared that she could get a whiplash. She also looked surprised that Anton could not help but grumble. “I just asked a little question, you do not have to react this way.”“Why would you want something in return for saving my baby’s lif
Kyra did exactly as Anton had ordered her. She swallowed her protest about sitting beside him on the chair reserved for his Luna and bent her head to focus on the delicious delicacies that had been laid out in front of her.The first time the maids brought the food and spread it out before her, her stomach gave a loud rumbling noise, and she wished the ground would open and swallow her, but that did not happen. She was so embarrassed she did not know where to look. She thought that Anton would tease her or worse, make a snarky remark about it, but he said nothing and instead gestured at the maids to bring her food faster.The first taste of the food nearly brought tears to her eyes. It’s been more than twenty-four hours since she had her last meal, and this one tasted so heavenly. Her father made sure she did not have anything to eat after she was caught trying to escape until she was sold off like a cow. She also refused to touch the food that was given to her when she landed and al
“It does not matter if she’s the daughter of an alpha because your father is also an alpha or have you forgotten?”“My father was an alpha but never for one day was I trained. I’ve always been weak and according to my father, that was my punishment for killing off my mother.” Kyra’s voice broke at the end and she felt like slipping to the ground and bursting into loud sobs but she held herself back from doing so. She has told herself after the death of her child that she would never cry again. Instead, she will make all those who've made her shed tears cry.Tanya was shocked at Kyra’s confession and a look of pity appeared in her eyes.“You don't know what you've gotten me into, Tanya.” Kyra raved, her eyes bright with anger, “Lisa is a mad person. Can’t you see how she scratched her own face and hands in such an ugly way? For her mate to have been mated to me in the first place, danced with me in front of everybody and still declared that he was more worthy of having me than Anton i
Everyone gasped, Kyra included as she was shocked that Tristan would even make this kind of offer when he knew that alpha Anton was stronger than he was. What was he hoping to gain by this charade? And he was even putting her in the middle of it? What in the name of the gracious moon goddess would he even want to have a duel with Anton for her? He wanted to show that he was worthy of being her mate? The same man who got her pregnant and abandoned her as a form of revenge against her own father? What was wrong with him? He left her first and was even aware that she was sold off then him, together with his Luna, Lisa, made sure she lost her child so what was he going on about? Wait, he must still want revenge against her father. Yes, that must be it because there was no other logical reason as to why he was doing this. So he would give himself up to death just to satisfy his quest for revenge? Well, that makes the both of them but she was not letting Anton participate in this tras
Kyra was only able to breathe freely again when she was back in the ceremonial hall but then, she spotted some people that were huddled together and she could hear them speaking angrily.Curiosity kills the car, they say and Kyra was a curious cat. Even if she knew that going there was a wrong decision she still wanted to know what was going on and what they were talking about.“She hit and scratched me! I told you that accepting this invitation was a bad idea, Tristan but you refused. She’s still hung up on you!” Lisa screeched in anger. She had tears running down her cheeks that were filled with claw marks when Kyra got to the gathering and was able to squeeze her way into the middle.Kyra was shocked at the way she met Lisa. Her appearance was very different from the woman she left in the bathroom. Kyra could not understand what was going on as she did not hear what Kyra had just said but she felt immense satisfaction at how Lisa was looking. The marks on her face were not really
Lisa had a smirk on her face as she stared at Kyra’s outfit from head to toe. Kyra felt anger and hate fill her but she controlled her emotions and decided to ignore the other woman. After she was done, she tried to walk away, but Lisa got hold of her hand, dragging her back until she hit the wall. Anger sparked within Kyra and she wanted to immediately attack Lisa but she knew that it won’t end well. She could almost envision Anton shaking his head at her.Kyra winced when Lisa's fingers dug deep into the flash of her wrist but quickly schooled her expression when she saw the smirk on Lisa's face. She was not going to allow the other woman to see her in pain.“You really have a lot of nerves, you slut,” Lisa sneered with hatred written all over her face as she finally released Kyra’s hand from her hold.Kyra wasn't moved by the insult, it wasn't the first time that she was getting such insults but she was not letting this one go, she just scoffed at her statement. “Are you seriously
Since Faith refused to say whatever it was that she wanted to but promised to show Kyra instead, she decided to let the matter drop. The two women both sat in silence for a while as Kyra tried to gather herself together and get her wolf calmed down and then they returned back to the ceremony because it was still ongoing and because Kyra did not want Lisa and Tristan to think that they had succeeded in chasing her away.Kyra did not care how things were playing out, she would still make sure to get my revenge back for everything they’ve done to her. She would also take something very valuable from them the same way they took her baby who was the only family she had left in the world. She would destroy them just the same as they've destroyed her life. Kyra vowed to bring Tristan down and make him beg for mercy but none would be shown to him just the same way he did not show her any mercy. Kyra just hoped that her wolf would cooperate with her this time and not try to come up and cause
“No, calm down,” Kyra tried to suppress her wolf, but it was impossible. She could feel her fangs elongating and her claws coming out, so she turned to flee down the hall. “Kyra! What’s wrong?” She could hear Tristan's voice right behind her and knew that he was following her. “No, no,” Kyra was chanting in her head, but her wolf was refusing to cooperate. She should never have accepted to dance with Tristan in the first place when she knew that all she wanted to do was sink her claws in his chest and bring out his heart then feed it to dogs. Kyra wanted him dead! She should never have listened to Anton and danced with him. Now, her wolf was going to come out and get in a fight with him. She was not only going to scatter the ceremony that was going on, she might end up dead because Tristan was an alpha and by right, he was stronger than she was. Though she knew that Anton would not let Tristan kill her, she did not want to ruin their plan. Kyra kept shoving people out of her w
What in the name of the moon goddess was going on? Everything seemed to be happening in the opposite direction of all her plans and Kyra was having big issues with keeping up.First, she almost lost control of her wolf and ruined the party, but Tanya’s entrance brought an end to that. Secondly, Tanya wore the same gown as her, and it caused people to start whispering bad things about her. Not that they were not already going so but it just seemed to increase their hate for her.“How have you been? Are you fine?”Thirdly, she was not seated with Anton or Tanya. She was alone and had to do most of her things herself, and she just had to be seated on the same table as her own father and directly beside him too.She had been too distracted by Tanya, who was explaining why they had the same gown on and listening to her apology to pay attention to the people sitting around the table she was assigned to. Why was her seat on the same table as her father? Who sabotaged her like this?“Kyra? Yo
“Ohh, and here comes the beautiful woman whom everyone is rooting for to become alpha Anton’s Luna,”“She’s so beautiful. Oh goodness,”“Kyra refused to attend the other ceremonies. Does she think she’s above them?”“I think she’s trying to act mysterious,”“Why are the two women coming in at the same time?”“I’m sure that Kyra knew Tanya would be coming in at this particular time and is trying to overshadow her,”“Wait, look, they are even wearing the same dress.”“What’s going on here?”Kyra’s mine immediately deviated from her wolf who was trying hard to come out, even her wolf calmed down as Kyra turned around to look behind her. Truly, like people were saying, Tanya has just stepped in, and she was wearing the exact dress that Kyra was wearing.Kyra’s mouth dropped open in shock. Tanya’s hair was also styled the same with hers, and they had on the same jewelry. What was going on? This was not part of the plan.Tanya picked out a bright red dress that complimented her dark red hai
Kyra hit her fist on her chest. She felt like she was choking up but then she realized that she’s been holding her breath. She opened her mouth and breathed in through it and her nose at the same time and felt her lungs clearing up.The long awaited day was finally here and Kyra could not help the feeling of nervousness that was threatening to overwhelm her. She was sweating even when the weather was cool and her chest was tight with anxiety. She hoped that everything would go smoothly and as they had planned.“Miss Kyra, you need to stand upright so that I can arrange your gown properly,” Cynthia said behind Kyra and she realized that she was hunched over. She didn't even know when it happened “Okay,” Kyra said as she stood upright and she stared at Cynthia who was concentrating on her work through the full-length mirror in front of her. She might not have liked Cynthia at first glance but she did now. This young girl has helped her in more ways than one and she was usually the fir
