“Lu…Luis, please.” I stammered as the whip came in contact with my back for the fifth time as I scrambled away, trying to escape. My back felt like it was on fire as I felt the blood dripping down my torn shirt. “Where the fuck are you going, bitch!” I heard him growl as he took hold of my hair and pulled me back up. “Argh! Let me go, please!” I begged as the tears streamed down my cheeks while he turned me around. There was an empty look in his soulless black eyes while his jaw was clenched as he stared right into me. “You whore! Couldn't you do just one thing right?” He sneered as I shook my head and tried to get him to let me go, but his hold on my hair only increased as I felt a part of my hair ripped from my skull. “So…sorry, Luis. I was exhausted and…” “Shut up!” I flinched as he roughly pushed me to the floor. “That was my favorite black shirt, and you ruined it,” he growled as his chest rose and fell in anger while I stared at the ground. Click. We heard the front door open, and a few seconds later, the woman I hated the most walked inside the room. “Darling, am I interrupting something?” the plastic Barbie asked as she gave me a smirk. The anger that Luis had a few minutes ago vanished in an instant as he walked towards that bitch and pulled her into a kiss as I looked away. “I was teaching this bitch a lesson for ruining the shirt you gifted me,” he said when she wrapped her hands around his neck. “Don’t hit her, Luis. You know she has always hated me, and I think I should just leave if it is causing this much trouble in your relationship,” she said in a fake voice, but he immediately shook his head. “Forget about her. Let's go on that date.” Luis said, and she nodded her head. He turned around and marched towards me, and before I could think what he was about to do, I felt his hand come in contact with my cheek, making my head turn to the side. “I will deal with you later.” he sneered as he walked out of the house. Tears flowed down my cheeks when I heard the clicking of heels get closer to me till I was consumed by the scent of her overpowering perfume. “I told you I would make your life a living hell,” she whispered before she walked out of there. Luis was the most handsome and popular guy in our pack, and every girl had a crush on him, and so did I. Any girl would have killed to be in my place right now. And just like how he was the guy everyone wanted, Ava was the queen bee in our school, thus, Luis’s first girlfriend. But right after high school, she left him and went to college. Everyone thought that their relationship had ended, and so did I. And I was over the moon when I found out that I was his mate. Everything was okay between us in the beginning, right when she came back. I thought she would leave him alone now that he had a mate, but I was so wrong. They began to sleep together, and this caused a lot of arguments to break out. A few months later, she came to our house to tell him that she was pregnant. I had never seen Luis that happy before, and this literally broke me from within. She wanted him to accept her as his mate, but according to the law, a man can only have one mate. I know finding a second chance mate is extremely rare, and I didn't want to leave Luis. I loved him, and I was firm with my decision. But Ava wasn't one to back down. Three months ago, there was a dinner party at the pack house, and she purposefully fell down the staircase and had a miscarriage while she blamed me for that accident. No one believed me, not even Luis, and that was when the beating began. That night, he lost his baby while I lost the one chance I had at love. Now he beats me at every chance he gets, and I don't think I could take this anymore. I thought that he would change. That he might see that she was only toying with his feelings, and she might one day leave him if someone better comes along. I wiped away the stray tears and got up from the floor. No matter what happens, I need to make sure my plan goes through. My back felt numb as I walked out of the living room and into my bedroom. I walked into the closet, grabbed two suitcases, and began packing my things. Once I was done, I changed my clothes and took my bags outside. Luis would not come home for another two hours, and if I left now, he would not be able to catch me. I looked around at the house one last time when I finally walked out to my car to load my bags. “Sweetie.” I turned around when I saw my mother standing behind me. “Mom?” my voice trembled as I launched myself at her. “Please come with me,” I whispered when she pulled back and stared right into my eyes. “I need to stay back, honey. If I come, there is a chance you might get caught,” she said as she wiped away the stray tears. “I can't see you suffer anymore, Emilia. And I hope you find a better life outside this pack.” “I will miss you.” “I will miss you too. But stay safe, okay?” she asked me, and I nodded my head as she placed a kiss on my forehead. “You know I am doing this for your safety, right?” she asked me again, and I nodded my head. “I love you, mom.” “I love you too.”

Emilia Abel - POVIt was not easy to drive past the busy pack town when I constantly kept looking back to see if Luis was coming behind me. My heartbeat was still erratic while I kept wiping my sweaty palms on my jeans. As I reached the pack borders, I saw the two warriors approach my car. “Miss. Abel, are you leaving the pack?” one of them asked me when I nodded my head as I took the letter that my mom forged and gave it to him. “My friend just gave birth, and I am going to visit her,” I told him as he scanned the forged paper, which had our alpha’s signature on it. Ever since I became Luis’s mate, he had made sure that I did not even step out of the house, not alone in the pack. “Isn't Gamma Knight coming with you?” the warrior asked me with a suspicious look on his face. “You know how he is swarmed with work. He told me to go ahead and he would join me later.” I said without stammering, and the warrior nodded his head as he handed the paper back to me. “Okay, have a safe journe

Gamma Luis Knight - POV“Luis! What is wrong with you!” I heard Ava’s panicked voice while I shut my eyes as I tried to take in deep breaths. I felt her soft hand on either side of my cheeks, and as I opened my eyes, I saw her eyes were clouded with tears while her lips were moving, but I couldn't hear what she said. The pain gradually increased to the pain where I almost lost my breath as I felt like every fiber within me was burning. “What is going on?” I asked my wolf. “She broke the mate bond.” that was all he uttered as he retreated to the back of my mind as I screamed in agony and anger. “Luis, Luis, stay with me.” I heard Ava’s voice, but it felt like a distant call when I saw the black dots appear in the corner of my eyes, and soon everything became dark around me. Beep beep. I scrunched my eyebrows when I opened my eyes and stared up at the depressing grey ceiling. “You are awake.” I heard a soft voice next to me, and as I turned around, I saw Ava was seated next to me w

Emilia Abel - POVMy eyes were drooping closed, but I opened them wide as I drove at a little over a hundred miles per hour on the empty road. I have been driving for more than six hours without sleep, and I lost track of my location as well. The sun was beginning to come up from the horizon, suggesting a new day ahead. My eyes almost shut close again when I saw something abruptly jump in front of my car. I didn't have enough time to stop the vehicle as the animal collided with my vehicle, and fell to the floor a few meters away. My heart was beating so fast while my hands trembled from the collision. I quickly got out of the car and ran towards the wolf when it turned into a human. He was badly injured, and I saw there were a lot of cut wounds while he was bleeding from his head. He must easily tower over me when I saw that the entire left side of his chest, along with his arm, was heavily tattooed. With his clean-shaven face and his close-cut hairstyle, it only suggested that he

Emilia Abel - POVI might be a healer, but I have always never been that good with blood, and looking at this man’s wounds, I felt the bile rise up my throat. “We need to save him before he dies in here, Amy,” Silver yelled at me when I nodded my head. I walked out of the room, made my way back to the car, and grabbed my bags as I walked back upstairs. After making sure that the room door was locked, I placed my bags on the bed and looked for the first aid kit that my mom packed for me. I took out most of my clothes when I finally found what I was looking for and placed them on the bed. As I opened it, I saw that Mom had packed everything she would need for an operation, even though I told her that I would never need all these. I placed everything I would need on the bed, grabbed the blanket from the bed, walked towards the man, and placed it over his lower half. I wore a pair of surgical gloves took my equipment towards him, and sat next to him as I began stitching him up. Once I

Emilia Abel - POVI felt extremely warm but cozy at the same time as I felt the hold on me tighten. I tried to turn around, but I was locked in my position when I heard a light knocking on the door. With great difficulty, I opened my eyes, while I squinted a few times to clear my vision to see that the room was pitch dark.I must have slept the entire day. I tried to get up, but the man’s hold on me tightened, and I felt something poke my inner thigh. “Miss, are you inside?” I heard a man yell. I quickly detangled myself from his hold and got up from the floor. After taming my wild curls, I walked towards the room door and opened it to see the man from the reception standing there. “Yes?” “Just a routine check. There are a few men here looking for someone. So…” I didn't hear the rest of his words as a cold shiver ran down my spine. Did he find me? “Could you and your husband come with me?” he asked me when I was broken out from my trance. I stepped out of the room and closed the

Emilia Abel - POV“What is your name?” he asked me a few minutes later. “Emilia Abel. And you?” I asked him. “Mateo Benjamin,” he said, and I nodded my head as I looked out through the window. “So, which pack are you from?” Gamma Benjamin questioned when I felt my blood run cold. I didn't know what to say as I blankly stared out at the many trees we last by. “Somewhere in the east.” I vaguely answered. When I saw a frown appear on his face. He didn't ask anything more. Thirty minutes later, Gamma Benjamin turned into a narrow lane into the forest, which soon widened to reveal a huge iron gate with a few warriors standing guard. As we stopped in front of the gates, a warrior approached our car. “Gamma Benjamin, who is this woman?” the warrior questioned as he stared at me. “She is with me. We are going to meet the Alpha,” he replied, the warrior nodded his head, and the gates were soon opened for us to pass inside. I have only heard rumors about the Red Stone pack because no one h

Emilia Abel - POVAs I walked out of Alpha Sanders's office, I saw Gamma Benjamin was still standing outside as he walked in. I walked towards the wall and leaned against it as I closed my eyes while Alpha Sanders's words kept playing in my mind. “I will not allow you to stay here as a permanent resident, but I will give you three months until you find another pack to move. That is the best I can offer, Miss. Abel.” “Miss. Abel.” I was broken out of my thoughts when I saw Gamma Benjamin standing in front of me with a set of keys. “Shall we go to your new room?” he asked me, and I nodded my head. We walked out of the hallway and walked up the stairs when he took a sharp right, and I saw the elevators. He pressed the button, and soon, the doors opened as we walked inside. “This is your access key. If you lose this, you will not be able to get out of this elevator. Do you understand, Miss. Abel?” Gamma Benjamin questioned as he showed me a silver key. I nodded my head when I saw him b

“I…I will come downstairs after taking a shower.” I told Gamma Benjamin, and even though he looked like he wanted to drag me out of there this very instant, he nodded his head and walked away as I closed my door and locked it behind me. I leaned against the door and slid down to the floor as the tears began to flow down my cheeks. Alpha Sanders must have already heard the news, and I don't think he would let me stay in here anymore. I looked out through the window at the open sky. “Please help me stay in here, moon goddess. I don't think I can go back to that monster again.” I mumbled. Knock knock. “Miss. Abel!” I heard someone knock on my door again when I quickly wiped away my tears and got up from the floor. “Give me five minutes I will come,” I called out when I quickly walked towards my closet, took out an off-shoulder sundress, and ran into the bathroom. After all my morning routines were done, I put on my clothes, walked out of the bathroom, put on my sandals, and opened m

Emilia Abel - POVI know I should not be mad right now. I don't even deserve to cry because we only have a contract mating bond, but I don't why, I felt like someone was repeatedly stabbing me in my heart. “Because he is our mate.” Silver stated as I furiously wiped away the tears and marched out of the pack house. “Miss. Abel?” I was walking towards Andres’s house when I heard Daisy’s voice, which made my steps flatter when she soon joined me. “So, it's true?” she asked me when I nodded my head as I came to a stop. The sun had already set on the horizon while the entire place was engulfed by the darkness that the night sky brings along. A sarcastic smile appeared on my face while my hand unconsciously cupped my belly. I don't know where I belong anymore. Luis made sure that I would never dream of going back to my old pack, and Andres made sure that I never thought about having a mate again. But among all this grief, I think the moon goddess has blessed me with the one happiness th

Beta Andres Rodriguez - POVAs we walked into the ultrasound room, a nurse helped Elizabeth climb onto the bed when Doctor Quinn walked in a few minutes later. He walked towards her and he was about to close the curtain when I held it. “You can start without closing the curtains, doctor Quinn,” I told him. Elizabeth is a star manipulator and I don't want her doing anything that would ruin this for me. The nurse helped Elizabeth lift her shirt and even though I was praying that she was faking this pregnancy, I was shocked to see that she was indeed pregnant. The nurse applied some sort of gel on her belly, when the doctor started the machine and began moving the wad around her belly while my eyes were glued to the monitor. I already have enough problems right now and I don't want this either. “There is your baby, Miss. Ross.” doctor Quinn finally said after a while as he pointed to the monitor. A loving smile appeared on her face while I stood frozen in my place. “Do you want to hea

Emilia Abel - POVIt's been a few days since Luis had come to the Red Stone pack, and even though Andres had sent him out, I was still on edge. Doctor Quinn’s words kept echoing in my head as I fidget with my pen. “Miss. Abel?” I looked up to see Daisy standing near my open door with two mugs of coffee. “Why do you still look tensed?” she asked me when I waved her off. She walked to my desk and placed one of the coffee mugs in front of me as I took a sip. “It's just the nerves and the stress, Daisy. Anyway, did you talk to the florist?” I asked her as I looked down at the file I was reading. The wedding of my first client is tomorrow morning, and I still have a lot to finish.“Yes, he said he is at the venue right now. But he would like to have your opinion as well, Miss. Abel.” she told me when I nodded my head. “Do I have any more appointments for the day?” I asked her when she shook her head. “We can go and check out the venue if you are ready,” she told me, and I nodded my hea

Emilia Abel - POVTears rolled down my cheeks as I got up from the bed and held his hand. “Thank you so much, Doctor Quinn,” I told him when he nodded his head. “But once Gamma Knight leaves this pack, I want you to tell Beta Rodriguez about this. Do you understand?” he asked me, and I nodded my head. Knock knock. “Come in.” Doctor Quinn called while he pulled the curtain that covered me from view when I saw the nurse walk inside with Beta Rodriguez and Luis. I was lying back down on the bed when Doctor Quinn walked outside. “Please take a seat in here. You can take a look at this screen while I do the ultrasound. And if she is pregnant, you would be able to see that, all right?” he asked when they both nodded their heads as the nurse walked to stand beside me. I didn't know how he was going to show them that I was not pregnant when I saw the nurse spread a cold gel on my belly while Doctor Quinn took his wad and began moving it around my belly. Throughout the process, my heart wa

Emilia Abel - POV“You are correct, Beta Rodriguez. But you know the rules, if she is found pregnant with my child, then you are supposed to give up your bond with her.” Luis mocked when I felt like someone knocked the air out of my lungs. I felt my hold on Andres's arm tightened when he didn't say anything. Alpha Sanders walked towards us while his eyes were locked with mine. “Are you suggesting she might be pregnant, Gamma Knight?” Alpha Sanders asked Luis when a smile appeared on his face as he turned around to face Alpha Sanders. “I am not suggesting, Alpha Sanders. I am certain that she should be pregnant with my child. After all, it's been a month since we had sex.” Luis said as he turned around to face me. “Am I right, Emilia?” “If she was pregnant with your child, she should have shown signs of pregnancy, Gamma Knight.” Andres finally spoke.“And you are telling me she did not show any signs?” Luis questioned when Andres nodded his head. “If she did, I would have sent her

Emilia Abel - POV“Miss. Abel?” I was broken out from my train of thought when I saw Daisy standing in front of my desk with a stack of files in her hand. “I have been calling your name for quite some time. Are you all right?” she asked me when a forced smile appeared on my face as I nodded my head. “I am just distracted. What is it, Daisy?” I asked her as she placed the files in front of me and stepped back. “These files need your signature. And I also wanted to know if I should schedule your appointment with Doctor Quinn today,” she asked me when a frown formed on my face. “He called the office earlier, and he asked if you would be coming to meet him.” she clarified when I nodded my head. I don't know how am I going to meet him now. I am pregnant with Luis’s child, and he will be coming here today, if this information gets out, I know that Andres would not even stop Luis from taking me back home with him. “That would not be needed. If the condition gets worse I will go and visit

Emilia Abel - POVI had my timer set for five minutes just to be on the safe side, and to be honest, this was the longest five minutes of my entire life as I paced back and forth in my bedroom. A million emotions were coursing through my veins right now but the prominent among them was fear. Fear of what the future would have for me and the uncertainty of my life. Ting ting. I nearly jumped out of my skin as my alarm went off when I quickly walked to the bed and turned it off. I took in a few deep breaths before I made it inside the bathroom. The pregnancy sticks were facing downwards as I gently turned them around with my eyes closed. You can do this, Emilia. Just have a positive thought. I whispered to myself as I opened my eyes and looked at the result. I felt like someone sucked the air from my lungs while I felt a numbing pain course through my veins. Tears pooled in the corner of my eyes as the pregnancy stick fell to the floor with a thud. This can't be true.I mumbled to

Emilia Abel - POV“How can I help you, ma'am?” the nurse sitting at the reception asked me. “I have an appointment with the pack doctor,” I told her.“Your name, ma'am?” “Emilia Abel,” I told her when she typed something on her computer as she finally looked up at me. “Doctor Quinn would be seeing you in room number ten, Miss. Abel.” the nurse told me, so I thanked her and began walking in further. The hospital was barely busy during this hour except for a few women who had come for their daily check-ups. Three hallways were branching out, and I took the one to my right and continued walking when I saw a few women were sitting on waiting chairs in front of a closed door. As I got closer, I realized that it was Doctor Quinn’s room. I stood by the door when it opened a few minutes later as a nurse stepped outside. She called a woman inside and then closed the door and walked towards me. “You must be Miss. Abel?” she asked me as she looked down at her tablet. “Yes, um, is it possib

Emilia Abel - POVI was so distracted with what happened in the kitchen earlier that I didn't even see where I was going as I bumped into something hard while my legs got tangled, and just as I was about to hit the floor, I felt a pair of strong arms hold me and pull me back up. “What is running through that pretty head of yours.” my eyes moved up when I saw Jasper with a smirk on his face. I quickly stepped away as a nervous smile formed on my face. “I am sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going,” I told him as he grabbed my handbag from the floor and gave it to me. “I can see that. You look distracted.” “Well, this is the first time I am working, so everything is a little overwhelming,” I told him when the smile on his face faded away. Jasper knew exactly how I lived with Luis and he had also witnessed how Luis punished me a few times too. It was when Jasper tried to save me from a beating that made Luis furious and made him falsely accuse Jasper and throw him out of the pack.
