Dahlia.

“Brother.” I teased, mocking him before his face.

He reached out to grab my wrist, but I snatched it away before he could.

I quickly walked over to my brother, avoiding Hades’ sneaky little touch. I throw him one last glare as a warning. He needs to chill.

My brother is standing right here, and I can’t believe he made a move when we’re standing nearby Atlas. Not that I wanted him to when he’s not around.

“And since when do you bake? I’ve never even seen you hold a whisk before.” I nudge him, and he laughed.

I thought all Alphas ever do is train pack members, lead meetings, plan strategies, and work on alliances and all that shit.

“What, I’m not allowed to do what I want in my free time?” He raised a brow.

I giggled.

“I mean, why baking?”

I know Lola is obsessed with sweets but seeing my brother starting to bake them is even crazier.

“For the kids.” He shrugged. Now it’s my turn to raise a brow at him.

Oh well, might as well try it.

    Dahlia.“Is that really you?” his eyes lit up. Lola’s lips curved up into a smile.“Hello, Atlas.” “You look…great.” Atlas complimented, making me raise an eyebrow. I didn’t miss the way his eyes lingered over her sexy body. But if I were a man who knew her since childhood, I’d probably do the same. Lola’s hell of a different person since we went to college.Back in high school, Lola never really showed her curves, always wearing those baggy sweatpants and extra large hoodie to school, her beauty wasn’t much appreciated. College changed us. It seemed as if going to college was our final step to becoming a grown-woman we needed to be. And Lola here is a perfect example of that.She smirked, tilting her head up despite Atlas’ dominating aura. Atlas passed her a smirk on her own as they exchanged looks only they knew the meaning of.Am I overthinking? Or is something really weird going on between those two.“Babe, who’s at the door?” Lisa walked up from behind Atlas. She took one look

    Chapter 30DahliaOh I am. I will kill them if they walk around talking about that shit out loud under the scorching sun.“Earth to Dahlia!” I snapped out of my thoughts. My eyes darted to Lola who watched me under inescapable scrutiny.“There really is no escaping this, huh?” I sighed.“Nope.” Lola shook her head, popping the ‘p’.Taking a deep breath, I grab Lola’s arm, prompting her to plop down on the bed beside me.“It’s them.” Lola blinked at me and tilted her head.Pursing my lip, I meet Lola’s curious gaze head on, preparing myself for what I am about to say.- - - “You did what?!” she screeched.“Ssshhh!!” I immediately wrap my hand around her mouth before she gets my brother’s attention. Hopefully, Lisa is trying her absolute best to keep Atlas’ eyes and ears on her.She makes muffled sounds as she tries to talk through the nonexistent gaps I left between her lips and my palm.“Be quiet! Do you really want Lisa to kick us out of here in no time?” I hushed her and she

    Chapter 31Dahlia. Lola didn’t speak for the next two hours. We sat eating our lunch quietly at a decent new café nearby. As soon as I caught up to her, she smiled at me, dragging me to the first café she set her eyes to.We finished eating. After paying the bill, we walked out the café without saying a word. Walking side by side, I glanced at her. The tears were wiped off her face and a fake smile was plastered on her face. I cleared my throat.“Lola?”“Hm?” She hummed without looking at me. “Is there something you want to tell me?”“No.” she immediately answered, shaking her head.I paused for a moment, weighing my options. In the end, I chose to say something about it.Taking a deep breath, I halted in my steps, making her stop on her tracks as well.“Do you—”“Hi.” I was cut off by the sound of a deep, masculine voice way close to me.I freeze, slowly turning around to see his face. That blonde, wavy hair he wore down to his shoulders and that dashing smile that makes panties d

    Dahlia.I can’t believe it. “It’s beautiful…” I sighed, taking in the scenery. The water flows smoothly in the lake, a quiet waterfall just above it. My eyes go to a small field of dandelions and lilies, surrounding half of the lake. Butterflies flew gracefully over the flowers, as they land on the petals their wings sparkle beneath the sunlight. I have never seen such beauty in a place before. One that invites you to explore and just release negative energy you’ve been carrying. I have been away in the city. Nothing I have seen is quite like this. Humans do a good job creating similar scenes, but nothing beats a true piece of mother nature.“It is.” I turn my head, and our eyes met almost in an instant. I feel my face blush, tucking some hair behind my ear as I realized he’s been watching me gawk at this beautiful place.“You know what this reminds me of?’ He suddenly asks.I lifted my gaze, meeting his halfway. The way he looked at me made my heart melt and my wolf is literally

    Chapter 33Dahlia.He’s my mate! I should have remained faithful to him. I betrayed him without him knowing, and now I felt guilty for my actions.At this moment I have decided, I really need to stop messing around with the guys, especially Hades. My wolf seemed to agree with me because she huffed.I looked over to my side to see my mate staring at me. If I had human cheeks, I’d probably be blushing by now. My heart beat involuntarily as if it was made to beat for him, and only him. Something buried inside me seemed to make me feel drawn to him. I could easily tell it was the mate bond, because why would I feel something so strong to someone I just met?I mentally shake my head.‘Uhm, we better head back’ I tell him through the mind link.Tatum didn’t object. Instead, he immediately got on all fours and went over to the spot where he left his clothes. I rolled on my side, pushing myself off the grass. As I made my way towards the back of the tree where I knew for certain I left my cl

    Chapter 34Dahlia.“Dahlia.” All hair on my body stood on end at that moment, recognizing that voice. It’s almost like my body automatically responded at the sound of a deep, guttural breathing, and I could practically hear the air heave up and down his chest. The mixture of both, once made my toes curls and my back arch before I had the most intense, mind-blowing orgasm. No one has ever made me feel that way. No one but them.In the darkness, I could barely make out Tatum’s jaw clench before he was forced to move in his spot. His back is now turned to me, and I peek over his shoulders.“Dahlia.” Valerian growled this time, his low, raspy voice echoed in the cave. A feeling of relief suddenly settled in my stomach. I don’t know why but I was glad they showed up.My head tilts to the side, watching Tatum’s expression darken, or so I thought. At least that’s what I think I saw. My mind must be playing tricks on my because the next moment I blinked, a playful expression was now plaste

    Chapter 35Dahlia.Atlas looked me up and down with worry in his eyes as soon as we arrived and entered through the door. Hades and Valerian’s glares never left me even as I walked in, but I did a good job ignoring them with Tatum by my side. Atlas approached us. “What happened to you?” I froze as I met my brother’s eyes. “I-I… uhm…”“It was my fault, Alpha. We were having so much fun playing that we lost sight of her clothes.” Tatum explained for me, making me look at him.Atlas cocked an eyebrow. “Is that right, Dahlia?”I nodded. Technically, I think I could say that was actually what happened. Whoever took them was probably a rogue or something. Suddenly, a thought occurred to me.Wait just a minute. Tatum and I weren’t the only ones near the lake. My eyes slowly move to where Hades and Valerian stood as they glared at me, anger in their eyes.My mind raced as I couldn’t help but put 2 and 2 together.They were there, too. How long have they been standing there, watching us?

    Chapter 36Dahlia.I yelped and scooted backwards in my bed, my eyes darting immediately to my bedroom door which is now pushed wide, wide open.Two sexy, inhumanely attractive men stepped in. Their presence seeming to create a dark, yet extremely hotter atmosphere in the air. The pacing of my heart accelerates a thousand times faster, and I can’t seem to breathe. The lights were off, and I was hoping, actually hoping I could hide from their prying eyes. So, I ducked my head, hoping to shrink into the size of a cat. I knew it was an impossible feat, but still I wanted to give it a shot. A deep chuckle resounded through the walls and the cold, night air, making shivers crawl down my spine as I stayed hidden. Inevitably, I could sense their gazes pinned exactly right where I was. Right. Night-vision, I groaned inwardly. I have been living amidst the humans for so longs I have forgotten the basic facts about being a werewolf.The darkness is no threat to us, and I am surprised I am cli

    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

    Dahlia’s POV:“Think you can run away from me,” he growls, and the women all took a step back yet when they touch the border, their bodies freeze yet again. Tatum laughs.I turn my gaze to him when he snatches the amulet so easily off his neck and threw it to the ground. We all watched as he stomped over it, twice, thrice, and retreats to reveal he had now broken the amulet in tiny little pieces.He growls at the last stomp, and huffs, running a rugged hand through his hair before shooting me a pointed look.“Fucking bitch, you dare run away from me,” he snaps, and my wolf winces when he curses us the way he did.I choose to ignore him and instead quickly glance at the women shaking from head to toe.“Come on, you can still make it,” I tell them, but not one of them moves even an inch from their spot. I am the only one standing past the border, which means I can shift anytime and run, only without the women I came all the way here to save. “Dahlia, you don’t understand,” Felicia whim
