CHAPTER 7Katrina’s POVThe torment and beating went on with Amanda’s mocking laughs and words and Shaun’s ruthless kicks and whips. At some point everything went blank as I lost consciousness.I wasn't sure if I was dreaming or dead but I suddenly saw a beacon of light approach me. Frowning and squinting my eyes, I sat up and watched it come closer.Luckily for me it didn't get too close thus I would have been blinded by it. It stopped and I observed it with interest, questions flying about in my head. ‘Be strong Katrina,’ a feminine voice echoed from the light, causing my frown to become deeper as I wondered what the hell was happening.‘Who are you?’ I questioned in a quiet tone, trying to peek behind the light as I wondered if the guard stationed at the door was sleeping or had left thus it seemed like I was the only one there with whatever the light was.‘Someone you’d come to thank,’ the voice said. ‘You have questions which would be answered in due time.’‘No, I want them answ
Katrina’s POVDays went by and my bruises just got a little bit better. No one cared about the state of my health as I was back doing errands and hard labor the next day.Being without a wolf made me totally different from others of my kind. At times it was bliss because there was no annoying voice in my head to tell me and issue me orders.Nonetheless at times when I felt too alone, I wished I heard the presence in my head to fill me in with some company. Also at times like these when I needed to heal fast, I wished she was with me because I was healing slowly like a human.Bending over, I finished wrapping the bandage around my knee for the second time in a few days. Having no one to help me out or care I learnt to do stuff for myself.Even Shaun who had the audacity to show up after what he did to sleep with me didn't even flinch at the bruises and bandaged knee and a swollen elbow on my body.I managed to kick him out of course and since then he hadn't visited. It had been a week
Katrina’s POVHer words stung but I let it slide and simply left to do her bid, picking up the bucket in my right hand which was gratefully in good condition.No matter how I tried to get rid of the hurt of his rejection or set my mind it wasn't my fault, someone or something ended up telling me otherwise and it always stung.Heaving a sigh I walked out of the pack house and began my trek across the pack lands. It was still morning and one could hear the voices of mother's and kids as they got them prepared for school and father's get ready for the day.The bloodmoon pack was not as developed as some others I had heard of, maybe it was because Shaun was a heartless and stupid Alpha. Sometimes I wonder what made me love him but the answer was always the damned matebond.I exchanged no greetings with anyone I came across and no one uttered a word to me either. I was the outcast of the pack who had caused the death of both parents at her birth.An hour went by and I approached a clearing
Days had flown by and I was back to being in hell. Amanda didn’t relent as she threw insults at me and tried to mock and hit me at any chance she got.As for Shaun, he happened to stay clear of me. He hadn't approached me personally since I chased him out of my room after he threw me in the dungeon. He even went through the trouble of avoiding eye contact.I was ecstatic about that fact as I needs a break from his madness. I just hope he doesn't return back to being stupid soon. I loved things the way they were.As for my health and recovery, it was going well and I was starting to heal. Vanessa had become a great help by volunteering to do the strenuous chores, therefore reducing the stress on me and giving my body time to recover.To my surprise Vanessa had proven to be totally different than what I had thought. She happened to be the friend I needed by standing by me as she was mentally stronger and more capabable in handling pressure unlike me who succumbed to it easily.When I as
Katrina’s POV“Hurry,” I said to Vannessa who was getting dressed while I stood beside her, already dressed.We were in my room. Vanessa was not given a place to stay when she was brought and the maids wouldn't want to get on Amanda’s bad side by accomading her in their quarters.I only found this out some days after we met. It was early in the morning and I was heading to run an early errand Amanda had indicated to me the previous day when I observed her sleeping beside my door.She didn't know it was my room by then. Feeling sympathetic and deciding to give her a chance, I let her sleep in with me after I warned her about its state.To my surprise she didn't act disgusted or flinched instead she was grateful and it was nice having company and someone to share the days events with.Vanessa loved to discuss and badmouth people a lot so sharing chats with her was always fun. Staying together made us bond more with each other and she got really comfortable with me.It was sometime in th
Katrina’s POVThe words flew past my ear as every other person in the room went still for a moment as the news settled in their system. Amanda inhaled a deep breath and nodded at the guard who exited after."You all heard the guard," she said in a loud tone. "Round up whatever it is you are doing and leave as soon as you can.""If you can't round up everything then pack up and leave," she issued out the command, clapping her hands rapidly for emphasis.The men whom I was about to work with began climbing down the ladder and packed up their equipments. I tried to help but they shook their heads no. They didn't appear familiar and I wondered where they were from and if they were humans, wolves or lycans.Another side effect of not having a wolf, I couldn't sense or figure out simple things like that. Except if I was told or if a situation came up that somehow revealed it to me."Katrina!" Amanda yelled my name all of a sudden and I jumped, wondering what the problem was this time."Yes
Katrina’s POV“Umm that would be a lie,” Amanda said and broke out in a hysterical laugh which to me showed her nervousness. “Who would feed you such information?”“Are you indirectly calling me a liar?” The man who spoke earlier questioned. His tone icy as his statement held animosity. “I’m the Lycan King and I have people at every corner ready to give me whatever information I seek.”“When they don't?” He implored, making sure there was silence for some moments. “I tend to investigate matters myself. This is to say everything I speak of has been thoroughly checked and confirmed before I take action”“Pssss,” an object poked my back and I stared behind me to see the maid with a tray following me. “Why haven't you gone in?”“Ummm, I-”“Move,” she jabbed me with the tray. “You are not the only one who hates to be scolded and I’m in no mood for your shenanigans.”Having no choice I used my right elbow while tightly holding the tray of food and bent the door handle. I heard a click and p
Katrina’s POV“Then tell us,” Shaun declared after sharing a quick glance with his Elders and Amanda. “Is there someone you admire?”“I wouldn't use the word admire,” he corrected as I was almost at the door. “But yes, I have my eyes out on someone.”“Who might that be?” Luca one of the elders implored.“Her,” Davos announced as my hand reached the handle. For the third time since I came to serve, the room grew quiet and I felt eyes digging into my back. Feeling compelled to turn around, I did just as Amanda screamed, “Her?!”“What?” I blurted the question before I could think, the empty tray in my hand shaking.“Yes,” Davos affirmed as I fully faced him from a distance, his posture relaxed in a short sleeved brown and black designer shirt and black slacks. His chin held high, a small smile playing on his lips. “Why?” Shaun interrogated.“I have my reasons,” he replied, golden eyes I never knew existed raking my form, his gaze still intense and it came off as if he could see beneath
Katrina’s POV“Steven,” I grunted and continued to push against him.“Shut up Katrina,” he grumbled and grabbed my wrists in one of his hands, pinning it in between us. “I only want you to get a taste of what I can give you and what you are missing.”“And I said no Steven,” I hissed, shooting daggers from my irises as I peered up at him, moving my body left and right with force in a bid to shake off his hold. “When a lady says no it means a serious NO!”“You can't decline what you don't know Katrina,” he growled and shoved me forcefully such that I landed on the soft mattress. My body bounced on it for some moments the same time my heart began to pounce in my chest at the gravity of the situation I was faced with as I stared up at a smirking Steven and gulped.“I like this position better,” he pronounced and intertwined his fingers behind his back, watching me, his legs pressing mine and preventing me from getting back up.“Steven please,” I begged, “please Steven, can you stop this?
Katrina’s POVI gulped the moment we were back in my room and he shut the door, a sly smile on his lips and a crazy look in his eyes. I shouldn't have been scared but for some reason I was.“As you can see Steven, I am fine,” I murmured in response, eying him warily.“If you were then why didn't you come for training?” He interrogated, head tilted to the side and his body blocking the door.I shouldn't have thought so much about it nevertheless something about his presence ticked me off in those moments. Taking some seconds I observed him again and realized my notion was right to be wary of him.“Sorry I wasn't feeling up to it, that’s why,” I confessed, hoping that would satisfy whatever curiosity he had and make him leave afterward.“I knew something wasn't right about your absence,” he smiled, it was to appear kindly, however it may be because of his advances or behavior toward me that made me feel uncomfortable under his gaze and more so at his closeness.“Don’t worry Steven,” I e
Katrina’s POVAfter pleasing him in the way I wanted, he ended up putting me over his lap and made me ride him. At some point when I got tired, he held me up and pounded into me, causing my screams to fill the whole room.We were at it for hours and after that, he switched our positions, bending me on my hands and knees, as he fucked me from behind, my back arching as he filled my insides.He had gotten back into his busy schedule two days after and we were still not able to meet up at lunch hours, nevertheless he had decided we eat dinner together in his chambers.Also it is not what you think, it wasn't everytime we ended up having sex, most times it was just comfortable conversations and watching movies.Other times I’d just keep him company while he attended to his documents and had business calls, at times it was video calls while it was also normal calls.During those periods, I occupied myself with playing around on my phone and gazing at pictures of beautiful flowers and wonde
Katrina’s POV“I want you,” he breathed in my face, his gaze dropping to my lips as lust entered his eyes, a hint of his grey tinted hair falling over his face from the angle he tilted it to peer at me.My lids clamped short as I inhaled sharply, his statement washing over me, going to rest at the spot between my legs, giving me tingles there. My eyes flashed open to see him more closer to me, as if that was possible.I sucked in my bottom lip as my vision raked from his face, down to his bare shoulders which were so wide I felt the need to sit on them while he held me up in his muscular arms and ravaged my pussy with his mouth.My dirty thoughts scared me and it seemed as if I was becoming a totally different version of what I knew myself to be. Being with him tended to bring out the naughty side of me I never knew existed and I was slowly becoming accepting of that realization.“Hmmm?” He hummed in a questioning manner, his hand wrapping around my neck and applying a bit of pressur
Katrina’s POV“Why sorry?” I implored in confusion, eying him and at the same time feeling my heartbeat accelerate at his closeness.“Because I haven't been giving you attention these few days,” he said out loud and butterflies stirred in my stomach, my heart swelling as I heed his sincerity.“You mean that?” I raised a question, disbelief clouding my voice and system as it was hard to believe he cared for me to the point where he felt sorry about not being there for me and missing out on the quiet times we shared together.“Do I need to repeat myself before you believe me?” He interrogated, tone deeper and eyes narrowing at me, a bit of frustration in his eyes while at the same time his lips twitched.“Not necessarily,” I revealed, biting my bottom lip as I felt suddenly shy under his gaze.“Good,” he declared and reached out a hand to cup my chin. My face involuntarily leaned in to his touch and I hummed before I could realize what was happening. “Cute.”“Sorry I did that,” I snappe
Katrina’s POVSteven’s jabs were getting annoying and I could only take so much. It was too difficult to get through the rest of the training and I wouldn't even call it training hence most of the time was him throwing seductive or what he thought was seductive but annoying statements.At some point I had to make up an excuse and walk away from the grounds. Thankfully the session was already over and people had already started to walk away from the grounds so I took up the opportunity to do same.Evening had set in and after I had gotten to my room, I quickly washed up, while I grumbled nothingness in frustration at Steven’s words while I scrubbed my skin. I easily changed into fresh clothes and did my hair in a bun atop my head.Maddy brought in lunch not long after that and it was an amazing meal of pasta and soda with meatballs. After that I exited my room and made my way out of the castle, no sight of Arianna or Valencia.An hour had gone by of me sitting idly in the garden behind
Katrina’s POVI struggled against him for a brief moment and his lips curled further in a sly look before he let go of me. I hopped once more before I regained my balance, a scowl on my face as I took two steps back to where I previously stood.“Why’d you do that?” I mouthed the question, narrowing my eyes at him, getting irritated and a bit annoyed as he continued to keep that cocky outlook.“Just testing your resolve that's all,” he answered in the same manner I asked, no one else hearing or noticing anything amiss as they were all involved in their respective actions.“Can we focus on the training?” I asked, my voice audible and not just my lips moving to keep the conversation quiet.“It's hard to focus when you are right in front of me,” he said enticingly or thought he did, but to me it came off as irritating. “You look constipated.”“The word I think to be used should be uncomfortable,” I elaborated, tilting my head to the side and curling my tongue in my mouth to prevent me fro
Katrina’s POVIt was safe to say I had survived a month at the Alpha King’s castle and well protected kingdom. Everything was going smoothly if I must say and I could feel I gradually regaining the confidence I had lost or never even had.My relationship with the ladies was fostering beautifully and I couldn't have asked for better women to call friends. Despite the fact that after my whole confession session they had become overprectective, I didn't mind.I wouldn't lie it irked me at some point especially when they always searched for me every time for fear that I would feel sad or lonely like the way I had said I was back at Shaun’s pack.Regardless I loved the attention and protection I was getting. It made me feel special and cared for in the best way I could ever think of. They always made sure I was okay and happy and that alone was amazing.Davos and I fell more into each other’s company. I know I’ve been saying this, but each time I think about it gives me butterflies and mak
Katrina’s POVHe granted me one last inquisitive glance before shifting his attention from me to the tasks he had to attend to. He had a fully assembled desk top computer and keyboard and his gaze shifted to the screen.I kept quiet throughout the time he clicked away, his left hand picking up documents and sorting out their contents with what he had on the screen.He murmured unintelligible words in between while most times he traced a sentence with his finger, reading it out and for some reason, I found myself laughing.The silence which has initially been awkward and filled with sexual tension became somewhat calm and easy going. As for the sexual tension part, it still hung heavy but it appeared like we had made quiet decisions between ourselves to leave it be.An hour or two must have ticked by in silence, simply enjoying each other’s company. I found myself to be really comfortable just sitting there, his body the only entertainment my eyes needed as it didn’t fail to enjoy the
