Maze’s life was forever changed when she was rescued from the brink of destruction–by the very proponent of that destruction— after her pack was invaded and her parents murdered in front of her. Now older, she begins to realize that her saviour's kindness came with a steep price. Groomed to love and worship only him,and deceived into believing that he was her fated mate,Maze is trapped in a toxic relationship. Stuck in between her gratitude for a man she owed her life and her yearning for a love that didn't hurt,she must confront the dark secrets of her past. Will she find the strength to break free, or will the weight of her gratitude silence her forever?

CHAPTER FIVEMAZIKEEN I walked into the house that evening and was immediately greeted by the smell of stir fry and the sight of Savannah,barefoot and wearing one of Graylin's shirt as she moved around the kitchen like she belonged there.“What are you doing?”She whipped around, her almost non-existent brows furrowed as she gave me a once over.“How did you get in?”I scoffed. “I live here…. you don't.”“Gray gave me a key,” she simply said with a shrug. “You probably have one too…” “What are you doing here?” I cut in sharply and she gave me a “duhh” look as she waved a hand behind her.“I'm cooking…obviously.”“Get out.”“Oh honey…”“I said get out!”Savannah startled a bit then took a small step back,her eyes darting down to my clenched fists.“I'm only here because Gray wants me here,” she began. “He told me you both were in an open relationship and I could come over whenever I liked.”“We aren't in an open relationship,” I unclenched my left fist and raise

CHAPTER FOUR.MAZIKEEN. “Miss Smith, welcome.”I gave a small nod to the portly receptionist as I came to a stop in front of her desk,I couldn't muster a smile just then…. perhaps not for the rest of the day too, after the night I had.Graylin had brought Savannah home for dinner,then made out with her for a long time in the living room before taking her home,and only returned to the house by two AM. But I should be happy that I'm the one he comes home to at the end of the day right? So why was I so irritated?“Hello,I'm here for Mr.Black?” I said and the lady nodded.“He's currently on a family vacation but he says you can start,” she paused to hand me a file and a key. “Your office is on the fifth floor,and here are his schedules for the next couple of weeks.”I forced down the mix of emotions swirling in my chest as I took the file, “thank you…”“Linda,” the lady offered.“Sorry I forgot....thank you,Linda.”“No problem at all,”she beamed. “Just let me know if you

CHAPTER THREE. MAZIKEEN. “You shouldn't frown like that,Maze…it really doesn't flatter you.”“That's just how my face is,” I whispered but Graylin undoubtedly heard me, because he shot me a look that sent a chill down my spine.I swallowed as I sat up straighter and attempted to relax my face as I watched him saunter fully into the room,a towel hanging dangerously low on his narrow waist.“Did you go to the place I asked you to?”I hesitated then shook my head even though he wasn't looking at me.“Use your words,Maze.”“I didn't go…” I said. “I was a bit thrown aback by what I saw…you with the red head.”“Savannah.” He murmured, “that's her name.”I didn't know what to say to that,so I silently watched his back flex with each movement of his hands as he flipped through the clothes in his closet.“I…is it quite necessary that you have another lover?” I asked and he scoffed as he picked out a clean shirt and a pair of pyjama bottoms from the closet.“What do you mea

CHAPTER TWO CHAPTER TWO PRESENT.MAZIKEEN. “You're fired.”My brows furrowed as I replayed the simple voice message over and over again until I felt the faint curl of anger deep in my belly.I smoothed a hand down the deep blue pencil skirt I had on as I turned to stare at my reflection in the floor length mirror.I adjusted the tied sash in front of my shirt, deliberately avoiding my eyes which I already knew would be glowing a bright green—a new change I'd for some reason refused to tell Graylin about ;plus the doctor's reassurance that nothing was wrong with my sight,had frightened me even more.This train of thought drew my gaze down to the heavy, square diamond on my finger. He'd gotten it even after I told him I wanted an amethyst.I let out a sigh before pulling up his number and dialing.“Mazekin” he said as soon as he picked up and I sighed again,arranging my words carefully.“I got your message….”“Good! Good,” he cut in sharply. “I don

CHAPTER ONE. PROLOGUE.Ten Years before. MAZIKEEN. The smell of blood and sweat hung heavily in the air,and I wanted to die.This thought was ironic because I loved life,or at least I used to until that day;I watched everything fall apart.It felt like I was bleeding from everywhere,every single part of me ached more than I could have ever imagined and I wanted it to stop.Death;that was the only thing that could make it all go away,I wanted that eerie peace I'd always heard about to wash over me and take the pain away…but whenever I reached for that dark void,a sharp whip on my back would snap me back to that dank,dimly lit room.I'd cried and begged so much,my voice had gone coarse.I swayed as another bolt of pain shot through me at the crack of the whip.The men erupted in echoes of laughter when I moaned in pain.“I think we've had enough fun….” One of them said but he was quickly interrupted by another.“Enough fun? C'mon Alaric…
