Chapter 102

last update Last Updated: 2024-12-23 14:22:07

Dahlia’s POV:

It felt like just like all those weeks ago, last time we met at our rendezvous and that same nudging feeling pulling me to him, yet I have no idea what. My brows furrow, and I notice Tatum’s eyes darken just before I remove my gaze to look right down at the steps in front of me.

Now that I have made an entrance, it would be embarrassing if I make a fool of myself stumbling down the stairs.

I have yet to reach the bottom stair when Tatum reaches his hand out to me. I look at it, glancing up at him to see his eyes had turned black in his anger, he was shaking, that I can tell, yet he was trying to mask it under his usual cheerful façade in front of Damien.

‘Take it, mate,’ he orders through the bond, and my instincts snap instantly as I grip his hand. I wince, and he shoots me a death glare at the sound I dared to make, apparently I am not allowed to make any sound so long as his father is right in front of him.

“Dahlia, it is so good to see you,” Damien smiles, and I sh

    O N E . Dahlia. “Is this what you want?” I hear him growl before a large hand came down my ass cheek, causing me to gasp. My eyes went wide. He spanked me. He literally just spanked me. A low chuckle sounded in front of me. I look up and mutter a curse under my breath. He smirked. “You naughty little virgin,” he said, coming forward to capture my nipples in his mouth. He began to suck. “You’re fucking wet…” The man behind me growled into my ear while playing with my pussy. I sigh the moment he slipped a finger inside my soaking wet cunt, while the other sucked and licked my nipples. “We will punish you for what you did, Dahlia.” Suddenly, the strokes went faster and deeper, and I let out a whimper. His words played in my head. What did I do? I have no idea. But what I do know is that I want to be punished by them. “Yes, please.” I nod, wiggling my ass up against his hardness. He huffs and leans back, perhaps to unbuckle his belt. A shiver of exciteme

    T W O . Dahlia. “Oh, leave her be. She must have been up all night using her phone.” I hear Mom sigh. Gee, thanks for the save Mom. And what does that have to do with my face being red? I swear, elders nowadays think cell phones are the culprit for everything. The question is, do I have a better excuse? Unfortunately, no. No, I don’t. “Yup, that’s it.” I nod and stretch my arms out with a yawn, to make it more believable. I closed my eyes, thankful I got to block out the two from my view. When I opened them, I didn’t expect what happened next. They all gave me weird looks. My brows furrowed, confused as to what they were looking at. My eyes moved to where Hades and Valerian stood, and their faces were the same. Their mouths slightly parted, and their gazes fell on… My jaw dropped and a gasp tore through me in an instant. “What the f—” “Dahlia!” Mom’s sharp voice cut me off before I could finish. I roll my eyes. I swear to the goddess, the woman could hear

    T H R E E . Dahlia. “You two, knock it off. She’s off-limits.” Atlas growls. My brows twitch at his words. I try to push down the anger building inside me. He’s my brother AND the future alpha. Mom told me not to get on his bad side, but what the hell? Deep inside, I felt disappointed. They were all I had fantasized about in high school. Why does Atlas have to ruin it all for me? And since when did he get to decide who I could and couldn’t date? I seal my lips shut anyway for the entire drive. In the end, I regretted not bringing my jacket. I wasn’t feeling it anymore. Atlas tried getting me into their little conversation but I just plastered on a fake smile and laughed if necessary. He had me sit on the passenger seat while the guys jumped on the back. Then I realized… Isn’t this their car? Why the hell is Atlas driving it and not one of them? Unless… No. My brother couldn’t be that petty to ask them if he could drive just so… Damn it. He did, didn’t he?

    F O U R . Dahlia. “Earth to Dahlia!” She practically shrieks in my ear, making me stumble and almost fall face-first to the ground. “What?” Before I knew it, Lola was walking beside me. “What has gotten into you? Why did you run off?” Lola stared at me, her eyes demanding answers. “And what were you talking about with those guys?” she asks with a raised brow. I mime zipping my lips and she narrows her eyes at me. She clearly wasn’t satisfied, so I was about to tell her when someone brushed hard against me. This time, I really felt like falling face-first. Thankfully, Lola snatched me up and pulled me back to my feet. “Watch it, Lisa.” Lola hissed. Uh-oh. This is so not good. “Oops, my bad. Didn’t see you there, virgin.” She snorts, her eyes mocking me as she places her hands on her hips. Her two minions posed behind her. One on each side. They giggled at the name Lisa called me. My cheeks heat. “Can you believe it? My mate’s sister is a frea

    F I V E . Dahlia. I blink five times faster, staring at my bag. “Hey, what are you looking at?” Lola nudges my back. In this class, Lola always sits right behind me. Atlas sits on her right, and Hades and Valerian sit at the far back. Before I could stop myself, my gaze flits to the guys at the back. As if they could feel my gaze, their eyes snap in my direction. Valerian tosses me a smirk while Hades' lips tugged upward into a smile. Quickly, I turn my gaze to the front. This cannot be happening. "What's wrong with you?" Lola asked me after class. "Nothing." Bullshit. What I saw in that bag is anything but. Lola sighs. For once, I'd hoped she'd let it slide. "So, what do you say about this pool party after grad?" "Huh?" "The pool party. Come on, everyone is talking about it." "I'm not." Lola rolled her eyes, not amused. Lola here loves parties. I, on the other hand, loves spending my time with books and N*****x during the night. Sometimes I wonder how we manag

    S I X .Dahlia. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing in the mirror. I couldn’t believe it myself, but there was some truth in what Lola said.The swimsuit fit me like a glove. I always wear baggy jeans and shirts to cover my entire body. I have always been conscious of my body. Contrary to the usual simple Dahlia who don’t even care if a hair was out of place before going to school, this was new.It emphasizes my full breasts and slim waist going down to my thick thighs. I know I’m not really fat. Fat is a strong word. Thick is more like it.“You don’t look too bad yourself, Lola,” I smile to my friend who smirks at me before she does a quick spin.Her two-piece green swimsuit with beads scattered on all the right places definitely showed off her curves. Her eyes are emerald green, and they go perfectly well with the swimsuit she wore.“Thanks. Now let’s go and give that big brother of yours the shock of his life,” she says with an evil grin on her face.What she said made me jump bac

    S E V E N .Hades.‘Fuck. Just look at her, Val.’ I growl through the mind link I opened with my brother, Valerian, who is gawking at her as we speak.‘Even better than we imagined.’ He grumbled.‘But I think we might have gone too far with this one because I want to rip the fucking head of each unmated male here who couldn’t take their eyes off what’s ours.’‘Not yet, Val.’ I warn him, and he could barely keep control of his wolf. It’s clear he wants blood. But I couldn’t blame him.The moment she walked out here with that thing on, I saw red. The unmated males here are almost drooling at her feet. I even heard some of them whisper about making a move on her. But they would know better than bring hell where they stood.It seems we have to make sure they know little Dahlia here is off-limits. I will make sure of it.“What the fuck is that?” Atlas all but growled where he stood beside us. His grip on the beer growing tighter. Oh no, this isn’t good.“What is what man?” I ask him.“What

    E I G H T .Dahlia.I won’t forgive him. He is so ridiculous and out of reason! All I wanted was to have a fun night after graduation.It was when he mentioned Dad that I started falling apart.Seriously, I don’t know what his problem was. Or why he keeps pushing me around trying to control me. It all started when Dad died, and he started getting all overprotective over me.I don’t know what has gotten into his head, but what he said crossed the line.I slammed the door closed behind me. When I ran all the way here, I picked a random room upstairs where I hoped no one could find me. I knew Lola would come looking for me. She’s the best friend ever. That is precisely why she cannot see me break down like this. Not over my brother. It’s stupid, I know.I pressed my back against the wall, sliding down I hugged my knees and buried my head down. I cried and cried until I was sure I had no tears left to cry. When I was feeling better, I decided to head back. Lola must be worried sick about m

    Hades’ POV“You have some fucking nerve, don’t you!” He snarls menacingly as he stomps over to me. I throw my hands in the air, a sign of my submission towards him while I step back slowly.His eyes bleed black as he glares daggers at me.“Get the fuck out of my sight before I have you killed! After that, I’ll have your pack killed as well,”My jaw clenches. No alpha should let anyone threaten his pack before him and let him get away with it, but this situation falls different. My pack literally lives off of his supplies and provision. Our father, before handing the title over to me and Valerian, filed for the pack’s bankruptcy, only we managed to save it thanks to the Alpha King’s tremendous help. Until I can pay him back and get the pack running on its own funds and thriving businesses, I am forever indebted to him.“Please, hear me out. It’s about Dahlia,” He growls ferociously, looking like he was about ready to lunge at me when Cathy jumps out of nowhere. Her small bump is on di

    Hades’ POV:“Any news?” Lola asks, looking at me. Her brows were creased with worry. Atlas was right behind her, and I see him lift both his hands in an attempt to caress Lola’s arms, but stopped in mid-air before taking a step back. I can feel my wolf roll his eyes, now that we know he actually has a thing for Lola, and for god knows how long, it is starting to feel really uncomfortable with Valerian glaring daggers at him, and his mate. Yet he doesn’t say anything or do shit about it either because with all our dirty laundry piled out in the fucking open, no one has got the say on anything. I shake my head, trying to get it together before I fucking explode from the lava of anger deep inside me. On second thought, I may just have to shift and hunt her down myself. It’s been nearly three weeks and we got no fucking lead!I have been driving back and forth to the mansion, but each time I turn the car around and drive away. How the fuck am I supposed to face him when my pack’s safe

    Chapter 99Dahlia’s POV:‘This is good, right? The Alpha King is coming,’ My wolf says to me, making my brows pinch.‘Maybe he can help us?’ she whispers. I shake my head at her, looking into my reflection in the mirror. I have just finished my make-up, and now I am ready to put on the dress.‘You heard him, Diana, we’re not getting out of here.’ I tell her, feeling her whimper at the loss of hope in my words. I wasn’t going to give her false hope or some play-pretend fantasy that we could even step out of this room without him watching us. We know what he is capable of, he has shown us, and with him repairing the bond, I doubt there was escaping him now.‘We’ve already gotten Ayesha and Felicia killed. They’re dead because of us. I don’t want us making it any worse.’ I say as I move to the edge of the bed, my legs cramping for a second and I wince. My body freezes as pain shoots up from my leg. I grit my teeth, not wanting to make a sound knowing Tatum might barge through those do

    Dahlia’s POV:“What are you waiting for?”I step back, staring at him as he leans against the wall by the door.He waits, raising a brow at me before glancing down at his watch.“Clock is ticking, Dahlia. You have ten minutes,” he snaps at me.I quickly jump to my feet and hop under the shower, not wondering anymore about his kinks and why he loves watching me use the bathroom. He has seen every inch of my body by force, what more does he want? Turning the hot shower on, I go to pull the curtains but Tatum’s growl stop me.“Leave it on,” he snaps, my hand freezes in the air before I retreat back under the hot shower. Trying to ignore his presence, I grab the soap and lather my body with it. I shower as quickly as I could seeing as I only got ten minutes, and this is the first shower he allowed me in days. Lifting my head, I revel in the feeling of the water dripping down my face and silently pray he lets me shower again. I stink, that much I figured after seeing the color the water t

    Dahlia’s POV:Tears prick the back of my eyes, and when I start blinking, I gasp as Tatum growls and snatches my throat, shoving me back against the giant bed he has imprisoned me in. Pain instantly rushes to the back of my head from the impact, and I winced.“I knew it,” he spits at me, while I stare back wide-eyed.“Tatum—” I choke.“You still like him, huh?” he snarls, and slowly I could feel him tightening his grasp, almost as if he was planning on squeezing the life out of me.Yet I wanted to scoff at the remark. Like is more of a weak word. Love, I love Hades, more than anything. Him and Valerian before he chose another path. And all that’s left was Hades. Despite his tricks and playfulness, I knew he would always fight for me.I choke, and close my eyes. Slowly, I could feel my breath leaving me little by little, feel his anger rushing out of him and rolling over me in waves when two knocks comes to the door.Then he grows and shoves me back again. I hear a thud and a crack onc

    Dahlia’s POV:One week later.Hours passed, yet I wasn’t sure what time it is, though I could see it’s already late into the evening. It is dark outside, and pouring with rain. I am sitting upright, naked on the bed Tatum and I used to share, until now. This bed means nothing to me any more than a fucking prison bed, as he had me cuffed to one posts. My arms are outstretched, and I bet my hands are already turning purple from how tightly he had it cuffed. Tatum has never let me out of his sight after we attempted the escape, not once had he let me out of the room to speak to the women, which worried me since I heard nothing, not a sign that would tell me they were outside my door or anything. Although I settled it was a good thing, since it means he hasn’t hurt them. It was the only thing that kept my sanity intact inside the confines of these four ugly walls, which seemed to be caving in around me each passing day.The only time he has let me out of these painful handcuffs was when

    Dahlia’s POVEverything stills, and we all turn to Thalia who shakily stood up from kneeling.“Please, punish me instead,”I look at Tatum horrified, who tilted his head as he raised an eyebrow at her.“Oh? Playing the good mother now are we?” he chuckles, before turning to Ayesha and dragging his hard nail further along her neck. Ayesha now lets out a scream which makes Scar let out a roar before plunging forward, but was stopped by all the women surrounding her. Her eyes flickered to her wolf’s, and I know it is not her in control now but her wolf, her need to protect her mate dominating her own.Tatum glares at Scar, shaking his head, and I growl, slowly taking a step toward him.“You never learn, do you Scar?” he chuckles, while Scar all but growls, bloodlust raging through her eyes before she was ripped back by the women forcing her down.Ayesha whimpers for her, and lets out a gasp when Tatum pulls her a little closer back against him. I growl.“And Thalia, allow me to think abo

    Dahlia’s POV:Just when I thought he would never let me go, he releases me making me drop to the ground with a loud thud. My hands immediately go to my neck, tracing his fingerprints I am sure are now embedded into my skin with how tight he had me in his grip. And for the first time, I suck in air so deep than I ever needed to in my life, as I chased my breath.I hear Diana growl in my head, outraged our mate would hurt us, but he was mate to us no more. I felt the bond sever, meaning I would no longer have a connection whatsoever with him anymore. Tatum cemented my decision when he brought his knee up and kicked me, throwing me back a couple meters away while I was still catching my breath. Clearly, the man doesn’t play fair.I try to get up, but Tatum’s foot suddenly smashes into the back of my head as he stomps on my head like people normally do with the butt of their cigarettes. Diana snarls and all but spits curses at him.“Fucking b*tch, think you could reject me and get away
