Stacie's POV
Four beautiful girls were standing in front of me, staring widely at me. Coherent speech seemed to have deserted them.
I couldn't help but ask; " What are you looking at?"
When I received no response, I wiped a hand over my chin. "Have I something on my face?"
"What?" One of them cleared her throat. "So sorry, you just look too beautiful to be a slave. We weren't expecting a pretty face like yours." She said, smiling.
Like you guys aren't so beautiful too. I said in my head.
Though I grinned, I still felt a little uncomfortable as to the exaggeration of my beauty. I know I'm beautiful but I just don't get the "too beautiful" part.
As if sensing my discomfort, she extended her hands. "I'm Nora"
I shook her hand, a fake smile plastered on my face. "I'm Stacie"
She continued, "You're welcome to our midst, This is Sandra, Shannon and Maggie, we are all roommates" The other girls greeted me one after the other, all with smiling faces.
"Well you'll be staying in a separate room from us" One of the other girls, Maggie informed me rather excitedly as she took my hands, leading me down the corridor.
"And why is that?" I asked her, feeling a little bit uncomfortable at her excitement about me staying in a separate room. What's she thinking??
"Let's say Alpha Antoine left his clear instructions about that. Your duty is to attend to him and his visitors."
"Here we are" She announced as we stopped in front of a door. She brought out a key and opened the door.
The room looked very beautiful painted pink and white, my favorite colour. It was not like a normal slave's room. It almost looked like my own chamber room. I looked around and liked what I saw.
"Now, let's get you dressed up" Maggie said, giving my body a run down look I couldn't fathom. She then added; "You'll be meeting him in an hour's time"
I went into the closet and changed into the dress that the picked for me. It was a blue short gown, having a opening at the burst line revealing my cleavages. The gown was close fitted and brought out my curves. I felt it was too revealing and wanted to change it, but was told it was handpicked by Antoine. I had to just wear it, as I didn't want to give him any trouble just after my arrival.
They styled my hair with a gel, and put a little touch of makeup on my face, giving me a whole different look.
The girls were all treating me like a princess, speaking a little formal and being polite to me and it got me bothered.
"Why am I getting this princess------ special treatment?" I asked them.
"Alpha Antoine made it clear that you weren't a regular slave".
That got me smiling. That was so thoughtful of him. Does that mean my mate cared a little about me?
I stood up, went to the standing mirror to give myself one final look before I go out to meet Antoine in his chambers. I smiled, looking pleased by my appearance. Antoine won't have the balls to reject me once again after seeing me looking so hot like this. I won't let him get away after what he did to me earlier. He has to finish what he started.
Nora, Sandra and Shannon left the room leaving me and Maggie alone. Now, what's she still waiting for? I gave her a questioning look.
"So sorry, I just wanted to wish you luck. I look forward to seeing you around, E-mily" Now, she had that creepy look on her face again.
I was about to say something when she quickly rushed out of the room. Weirdo! I thought.
"What exactly is her problem? What is she? A lesbian or what?" I thought as I stepped out of my room to carry out my mission.
Yes!!! I am on a mission.
It may seem impossible, but I'm not giving up. I need to seduce Antoine for two reasons. One is a personal one to make him pay for what he did to me earlier at the auction room, leaving me hanging with sexual frustration. I'll make sure to seduce him then leave him sexually frustrated too.
The other reason is to get a way to his heart, so he could help me avenge my parents death.
I entered into the living room in Antoine's chambers, squaring my shoulders, drawing a bracing breath and mentally rehearsing my opening lines to turn him on. He was right there, sitting on a sofa.
He looked at me, his face void of any emotion. I tried so hard to read his expression, but I guess no one has the ability to read the facial expressions of the almighty alpha Antoine. I don't even know if he was delighted about my presence here or if he was displeased. He just kept a neutral face.
"Sit down!" I heard him say, in a voice that shows that he wouldn't like to repeat himself, so I quickly sat down in the chair that was closest to him.
"Hi, goo--------" I began to say when he coldly cut me off.
"I never said you could talk. You don't talk until I tell you to do so!"
"That's rule number one!" His voice was so stiff and I'm sure I'd never heard such a cold voice before. This man lacked emotions. Like how could you be so cold to your mate on your first proper meeting?
Now, the chances of the success of my seduction have been reduced to 10 percent.
Did 10 percent sound like enough? I wondered. Maybe I should claim more percent by acting fast.
"Well, last I could remember, you didn't bring me here as your slave. You only wanted me to pay you back by working for you, that's different from the whole idea of slavery. So I don't think I need your permission to talk. And besides, I was only being polite by greeting you." I hadn't expected to sound so bold like that, I hope that puts him in his place and see that I'm no pushover.
He glared right at my soul. Releasing a dangerous aura and for a moment, I thought he was really going to hurt me, but he didn't.
Instead, he laughed and asked calmly. "Little Miss Stacie, who exactly do you think you are?
"I'm your mate!" I replied to him, not willing to back down.
He laughed again in his deep sexy baritone voice, turning me on.
"So what should I do about the fact that you're the mate of the almighty alpha Antoine? Pin a medal on you or something?"
This man is trying to get me so angry and ruin my plans but he wouldn't succeed. He's in for a shocker today. With that, I got up from my chair, walked up to him and sat on his lap.
"Instead of a medal, why not let's go with handcuffs" I whispered seductively to his ears.
Antoine's POV One moment I was trying to piss Stacie, my mate off, but the next, she was sitting right on my lap, whispering softly to my ear. Did she say handcuffs? As in she's referring to me having sex with her using handcuffs? Already? Is she already that eager to sleep with me? I just can't get this mating and bonding thing. I've heard that females take it very seriously and try to do anything in order to bond with their mates. Some even go to the lengths of raping their mates, according to what I heard. Miss Stacie sure isn't planning to do that right? Sincerely, I must confess that I'm still shocked. I had no idea that this little Miss Stacie would ever actually go to the lengths of seducing me. She looks so innocent and besides, she just got to my pack today. She hasn't even spent time adjusting to the environment or anything, but she's already trying to seduce me, the almighty alpha of the dark moon pack. She's got balls, I must say. Especially for someone that made
Stacie's pov. My plan to seduce the almighty alpha seems to be working out, as Antoine seemed to be enjoying every bit of my touch as much as I was. His hand squeezed my nipples and I shuddered in pleasure, spikes of desire shooting through my stomach and lower. As much as I had planned so well earlier to seduce him and then leave him hanging in sexual frustration, I don't think I can bear to do that anymore. This feeling I am getting is way sweeter than what I had imagined. I just wanted to have him deep inside me. I'm also very curious to know how it really feels like to be taken by your mate. The bonding, the mating, the connection, that was everything. I proceeded to take off his shirt which was hindering me from touching his skin. I touched his skin, and it felt so smooth. I could feel the play of his muscles under my fingers, and the heat emanating from his hot body. Then suddenly, he shouted; "Get out!" His voice sounded so cold like ever before. At first, I thought I mis
Stacie’s POV I broke out in cold sweat, trembling uncontrollably. How come I didn't even notice anyone creeping up behind me? I didn't even see his shadows. Could Beta Daniel have sent someone here to kill me? "How would he even know you're here" Elda spoke in my head. "You just have to fight back and save yourself." Right! I had to fight against this 'my' attacker. I tried to wriggle out of my attacker's firm grip and succeeded in freeing one of my hands. I quickly balled my hand into a fist, swirling around with difficulty to face him. But instead of my punch landing in his face, it landed in the air, as he seemed to have perceived it coming and had dodged it. Then before I knew it, he grabbed my fist in his palms, giving it a rough squeeze. "Ouch! That was painful" Pain shot up my arm like fire and I cringed. I was being sapped of every ounce of energy left in me. "Is this how difficult fighting is?" I wondered. This isn't even real combat, and I'm sure my attacker was bein
Antoine's POV The footsteps were coming close. I could hear the heavy thud of the person's boots as they approached the door. "Maybe one of the soldiers, I thought. Then all of a sudden, the footsteps stopped. There was total silence. I tried to smell the scent of the person who was at the door, as I had a sharp sense of smell. But surprisingly, I couldn't get the person's scent, not even a faint smell. It was as if the person didn't have a scent at all. Now, that's strange. Is it an alien or a human? I wondered. Stacie on the other hand felt the presence of the person behind the door. My scent was too familiar, stealing her breath away. It was someone she knew. Someone, she wasn't prepared to see right now. It was definitely----- wait did she just smell the scent? "Girl! Seems we're leveling up!" Ariel shouted excitedly in her head. Bang! Bang! Bang! The person knocked on the door with a kind of force that could only belong to one person. Then it dawned on me, The person at
Stacie's POV Oh my goodness! Daniel said he was going to lock the door, and then see if I'll be able to open it. The next thing that came running through my mind after he finished saying that was that 'What if he closes the door and I'm not able to open it? what would he do then? Would he think I'm a criminal or something? Or would he just kill me? Fear gripped me at the thought of that. Looking at Damien's face, he doesn't look like someone that would need to take permission from Antoine before killing someone he suspects to be a criminal. And by then, not even the formidable alpha would be able to save me. The funniest part is I can't even remember how exactly I got the door to open the other time. I know it was about the energy that is emitted from my body, but the problem is how did I manage to release the energy, or better still, what did I do to release it? I racked my brain but still couldn't come up with anything. Damien dragged the chains up, from the floor in order t
Stacie's POV Damien swung his fist at me, targeting my jaw. "Rule number one, always be alert and ready for an attack" Unprepared, I recoiled from his punch to my jaw with a wince. How could he be so swift and fast that I hadn't even noticed his movement? I thought, momentarily copying his style as I made a move to retaliate. I lurched a step forward and then threw a punch at Damien's face. The blow felt too dull. And I knew it immediately after I had launched it. "Too slow" Damien noted as he ducked under my punch. He grabbed my arm and twisted it. "Rule number two, never underestimate or look down on your opponent. They could strike when you least expect it" I struggled, squeezed, and wriggled free from his grip. I punched again. He ducked. I kicked. He blocked my kick with one hand and threw a fist at me with the other hand. I bent backward, making Damien's fist slap into my shoulders. Wincing in pain, I staggered backward and fell to the ground with a loud thud. "That
Stacie's POV I felt a very sharp pain in my chest and I cringed. The pain exploded in my head with blinding whiteness. It made me dizzy. It made me reel. It was like needles that had been dipped in alcohol had been jabbed through my chest like my heart had been replaced with ice and electricity wired straight into my spine. I felt a spasm of sharp pain in my lower body. Every part of my body started aching. I couldn't take it anymore. I fell to the ground, gritted my teeth, and then bit into my lips to stop myself from losing consciousness. I tasted blood on my lips. It was painful, though nothing compared to the ache all over my body. It was as if the bones in my leg seemed to snap and shift from their position. The worst part was that I couldn't do anything. I couldn't even move. I just sat down on the floor, enduring all the pain. "What was happening to me" I wondered, trying to communicate with my wolf to know whether she had any idea of what was going on in my body system.
Antoine's POV I was in my room reading a magazine, when someone burst in without even knocking. It was my beta, Damien. He had this worried expression on his face so I prepared myself for bad news. "There's a problem!" He finally said. "What!?" I shouted. My wolf jumped in me when he heard Damien say my mate was the problem. I quickly shifted to my wolf form, running down the woods. Then, I saw the wolf, looking as white as snow, and I knew it was her, my mate. He fur was looking short over her body and longer at the neck. It was really smooth and shiny. I growled, probably with lust. Then suddenly, she came charging at me with all full speed. I noticed her movement was wild. She looked pained as if she was fighting hard to keep her wolf under control. She stood in front of me, and uttered something. "I'm" she tried to say with great difficulty. "I'm". Then she collapsed. "Was she dead?" I couldn't help but wonder in fear as I quickly shifted to my human form. I reached he
ANTOINE'S POV"Sophia and Ethan are dead? Are you sure of that?". I asked Nolan. He nodded his head. "yes. From now on, we don't have to worry about them. They won't be bothering you anymore. Now we just have to focus on you and Stacie. You know that she's pregnant right now and she can't be agitated for any reason at all" Nolan told me. I nodded my head. "Yes. But now is not the time to relax. We need to completely get rid of Daniel before I can be rest assured that it's completely over. Beta Daniel will definitely not let it go since I have killed his son. He will want to get revenge on me but I have to beat him at his game and make sure that he's dead before I can enjoy myself with Stacie " I said to Nolan. "Do you know who you are going to make the Alpha if Daniel is dead? It's not like we can leave the pack unattended right? We need to place someone there so that the pack won't be thrown into chaos " Nolan told me. I nodded my head because I know that he is right. We need to
DANIEL'S POVI paced up and down in the throne room. Ethan has been gone for a few days and I haven't heard anything from him yet. I was really worried about him. I know that he won't be able to defeat Alpha Antoine. All that I wanted was for my son to come back here in one piece. That is the only thing that I need from him. One of the guards walked inside and bowed in front of me. I waved my hands. I don't need him to bow to me. All that I need is for them to find my son and bring him back to me. That is the only thing that I want right now. "What is going on? Did you find out anything about Ethan?. Do you know where he could be right now?" I immediately started to question him. "We have no news from Ethan just yet but someone told us that the Alpha had already completed his mating ceremony a few days ago. Stacie is now the Luna of the pack" the guard told me. My heart sank to my chest when I heard this. The plan was for Ethan to kill them at the ceremony. The fact that the cere
ETHAN'S POVDo you think that you'll get away with it again?" He asked me. "What are you going to do to me?"."What do you think? Of course, I'll kill you!" I was so scared that I wanted to throw up. I don't want to die. I don't want to die just yet. I want to live. At that moment, I saw my life flash past my eyes. I had a good life before I met Stacie. Even if I did not like what my father did to me, at least I was safe. There was no threat to my life. But ever since I met Stacie, it's as if things went downhill for me. All that I want is to stay alive right now. I regret a lot of things. I should not have kidnapped her. I should not have taken her against her will and brought her to my pack. I should not have come back here just because I found out that she lied to me and I want to kill her. I should not have done all of those things. I suddenly glared at Stacie. It was as if I lost all of the love that I felt for her immediately. The only thing that I could feel for her was
Ethan's POVI need to show her what it means to mess with me! "I am not the one who's going to die Stacie. You are the one who's going to die! What do you think I came here for? Do you think that I will still be so blindly in love with you that I won't be able to tell you that you're a horrible person who deserves to die?" I asked her.She laughed in my face. "You want to kill me? Ethan, you really think that you can kill me?" She asked me in a mocking manner. Where did she get all of this confidence from? What the heck is going on with her? I decided not to waste words with her. I am done talking to her. I took out the dagger I hid in my body and rushed to stab her with it. I was just inches away from her body when I felt as if there was an invincible power pushing me away from her. No matter how hard I tried, I could not move...I was stuck there. "What....what is going on?" I caught sight of the smug smile that Stacie had on her face. "I told you. You can't touch me!" She sai
ETHAN'S POV"What do you mean by that? Aren't you happy to see me?" I asked her with a smile on my face. "I said what are you doing here and how did you even get in here without anyone seeing you?" Stacie asked me..she was looking at me as if I am her worst enemy in the whole wide world. She wasn't like this before I took her away from me. At least then she was still nice to me. When did it all change? When did I become someone that she can't even stand? "The same way I took you away from here without anyone finding out. Back then, they didn't care about you so I took you away easily. Now, they still don't care about you and I am going to do whatever it is that I want with you! Why are you like this Stacie? If only you had come with me... if only you had stayed put then this won't have been happening right now! You know that I love you and that I am willing to do anything and everything for you! So why did you betray me?! Why did you throw away all of my feelings?! I was willing to
ETHAN'S POVI haven't heard of the Alpha going against the elders of the pack like this before. Do you think it's okay for me to come with you?" The bartender gave me a weary look. I know that he doesn't trust me completely. After all, he doesn't know me and he doesn't know who I am so it's understandable that he doesn't trust me at all. But I am going to convince him to take me into the palace with him. "Come on. I really haven't seen something like this in my life before. An Alpha going against all of his elders just to make the she-wolf that he likes his Luna? It must be fascinating!" I said to him. The bartender nodded his head. "Yes. You are right. It's fascinating. That is why all of us are going to see it. " He told me. "So please let me tag along with you. Don't worry. I'll be sure not to get you in trouble. As soon as I take a look at her face, I'll leave the palace. Do this for me okay?" I asked him He still seemed a bit hesitant. I suddenly had an idea. I took out some
ETHAN'S POV I was sitting in a bar. I had spent the entire day, walking through the pack and trying to figure out a way to enter the palace without getting caught by the Alpha. The security measures in the palace have increased since the last time that I was here. But I already expected this. After all, I did kidnap Stacie and take her away under everyone's noses. It's clear that the Alpha is going to want to protect her even more. I'd be suspicious if the palace wasn't guarded. I would think that they are setting up a trap for me. But as it is, there's no way they can know that I am here. I did a good job disguising myself when I came here after all. I was still lost in the thoughts of how I am going to torture Alpha Antoine and Stacie when the bartender walked over to me. "Hello, Sir. I am really sorry but you'll have to leave. We are closing up now " he said to me. I turned to glare at him it's not even twelve yet so why the heck are there closing up so soon? "What
SOPHIA'S POV The next morning, I immediately got dressed and left the palace. Alpha Daniel did not even ask me where I was going when I left. I think that he was all too happy to see me go. As he said, I am one of the reasons why his son decided to put his life in danger and go back to Alpha Antoine's pack just to get revenge. I know that I had indeed manipulated him into doing back because I want him to take revenge on Stacie for me but he won't have done it if he didn't want revenge too. He wanted to get back at her for the so-called humiliation that she gave to him so even if I didn't say anything, he still would have done something. Anyway, it no longer has anything to do with me. If he can really kill Stacie, that will be best for me because it will mean that although I didn't get the Alpha, she can't get him either. But if he doesn't manage to kill her then, he'd be the one to die and I seriously don't care at all. It's none of my business. All that I care about i
CIARA'S POV I was really worried when Sophia ended the call and told me that she was going to think about it. I thought that she had figured out that I had sold her off to the Alpha and that she was not going to show up. Sophia has always been very smart anyway so it won't be extremely hard for her to figure it out. In fact, the only thing I am counting on now is the friendship that we have with each other. If she really sees me as a friend then she won't suspect me so easily right? I was still worried about this when my phone rang again. I picked it up and saw that it was Sophia. I answered it immediately. "Fine. Ciara. Let's leave. where do you want to meet me? You are right. I need to get out of this place. And you need to get out too or else the Alpha is going to come for you sooner or later" Sophia said. I was so happy that she bought my explanation. Everything is going as planned soon, I'd be far away from this pack. As for Sophia....well, I guess that she'd be de
