Dahlia's POV:

Tatum left me in the room, only to come back with a frightened-looking Paula in his arms.

I furrow my brows and move toward her, but Tatum, the behemoth of a man as he was, blocked me before I can get to her.

“Why is she here?” I ask instead.

He cocks his head to the side.

“Paula is new here,” He says, turning around before motioning for the girl to enter.

“New?” I squeeze my brows.

Paula reluctantly steps further in, her eyes darting to me for a second before looking back down.

“In the next full moon, she’s turning sixteen,” Tatum’s eyes lit up as he turned to me. Something about the way his teeth flashed and mischievous smile made me uneasy.

“As her master, it is my responsibility to teach her what she needs to know,” he adds, and I look at him.

Master? I question in my head. A smile tugs on his lips before he turns, extending a large hand out to the poor, frightened girl.

“Come, pet,”

Why he calls her pet is far beyond me.

Shuddering, Paula reaches for his hand. I

    Valerian’s POV:After my confrontation with Lola, I drove over to Cathy and explained everything that happened between us since the party. I know the baby was mine, and I wasn’t going to let her believe some other man fathered it. I wasn’t going to do that to my pup. I expected to receive a slap in the face, but was surprised when Cathy not only forgave me for tricking her, but accepted me with open arms. She confessed that she felt like I was a different person, and that she was falling in love. Still, after speaking with Lola, I knew the bond would only get stronger, so I told Cathy to cool things down until I figure out what to do with my mate and my wolf. A part of me wanted to keep them both, but my wolf wouldn’t have it. He only wants Lola, and I have to admit, after experiencing the strong bond flowing through us, I began to want her too.Sitting in the couch of our living room, I sit across Atlas and his father, the former Alpha Maxon. Beside me is Hades’ whining ass ever sinc

    Chapter 86Dahlia’s POV:I woke up from the searing pain that washed over my body, jolting me awake. I clutched my heart, wanting to rip it apart only to make the pain stop. I lurched forward, unable to stop myself from scratching and clawing at my chest, no one was there to stop me. Even as I tried to stop myself, I couldn’t. Not with the bond and his betrayal compelling me to do so.The last time I felt this pain it was when I found out he was fucking someone. “Aahh!” A scream tore out of my chest. The pain was getting worse. Tears streamed down my face the longer I went clawing at my chest.If I don’t stop, I would no doubt bleed to death. My wolf growls loud in my head. I could feel her anger, then she whimpers giving me a taste of her pain, and a long, devastating howl follows. She was livid her mate would do this to us. Didn’t he promise he won’t do it again?Looks like his promises were empty, because why else would my wolf and I go through this sudden pain?‘Stop, Diana,’ I

    Chapter 87Dahlia’s POV:All afternoon we’ve been devising a plan. Once the pain stopped, I knew Tatum was finished. Two hours after he fucked another she-wolf, he casually entered our bedroom as if he did absolutely nothing wrong, kissed me on the cheek and said he was going out and won’t be back for the next couple of hours. It was nearly seven in the evening now, and I figured this was one of those nights when he would come home awfully late into the night. I was a little relieved it wasn’t Ayesha this time, since she still hasn’t fully healed. Like me she’s having trouble healing, and I wonder why all the women in this house seems to be healing not more than an average human. Some of the maids were eager to join us in our plans, and I let them in. The older woman, however, which I learned was named Thalia, and also Ayesha’s mother, chimes in every now and then to check on our progress.For now, I look over to the large wooden table sitting in the middle of one of the entertainm

    Hades’ POV:Before I could blink, Atlas charged right at me as we both shift into our raving, savage, and blood thirsty wolves. My wolf leaps at the sight of a challenge, alpha to alpha, and it’s making him rather more difficult to control. ‘You fucker!’ he growls, hearing him open up the mind-link as his wolf pounced on me. When I got the chance, I quickly ducked my head and sprinted towards the door, not wanting to make a mess of this house I had fully furnished. Atlas catches me with his teeth the moment I took one step outside, and I groan feeling the stinging pain now flowing through my torso as his wolf clamped its huge canines into my ribs, flinging me across the front porch before I land on my ass on the concrete ground.From the distance, I could hear faintly Lisa’s insufferable giggling while we fought savagely out front of the house.One thing is for sure, I am going to fucking rip her head off because of this.‘I fucking trusted you to lay your dirty hands off my sister

    Dahlia’s POV:Peering up at the moon, I suddenly thought of Hades. Valerian, too, and how they are doing without me. I felt a twinge of pain, knowing they must be happily tending to their fated mates this very moment. The mate bond is both magical and mysterious, yet mine with Tatum just feels… plastic, unnatural, forced. I have tried to give it a shot, but all this while I have been mated to a damn monster. He doesn’t love me the way a mate is supposed to love his soulmate. Mates don’t do that to their fated, their other half. They don’t run around sticking their dicks into just anyone because they want to, knowing it would severely affect their mates and the bond. Either Tatum don’t really care or he doesn’t know about the aftereffects of his infidelity.I sigh, tilting my head back up to stare at the night sky. It is a full moon tonight, and my mind wanders. In nights like this, Hades and Val would sneak into my room, wrap me in their strong arms, and whisper sweet nothings into m

I’m strong enough to house the pain for both of us,’ Diana tries to comfort me, but I felt more guilty than assured.‘Still, it isn’t right, Diana. A mate is supposed to be loyal to his own, that is why we have a bond,’‘Which is broken now, Dahlia, unless…’ I wait for her to continue, but she remains in silence, and I felt curious.‘Unless what?’I hear her sigh in my head before she says, ‘Unless he commits to us and only us, it will help repair the bond,’ Diana whispers, and somehow I could hear hope through her voice.Hope that our mate would eventually come around and love us the way we are supposed to. ‘I doubt that, you saw what he did to Ayesha, how he treats the women he hired in this house. Do you really want to stay with a man like that?’ For a moment, I heard nothing from Diana but silence. I sigh, shaking

    Dahlia’s POV:The clock ticks midnight, exactly midnight, a perfect time to advance the plan we have worked hard for all afternoon the last time. But in order for this plan to work, I have to make the first step, which Thalia entrusted to me being that I am the only one who could get close to him.At this very moment, I am lying on his chest, my hand pressed against his rock-hard abs which my wolf can’t seem to stop salivating over. Diana purrs and chucks at me the memories of the last couple of hours he had spent on us. Until now I still couldn’t believe he can also be a gentleman in bed, that he could actually control his strength to avoid hurting me, yet it was a mixture of pain and pleasure, somehow he decided to keep the pain lowkey this time, leaning more on the pleasure part. I look up at his sleeping face, admiring his features and wondering how the hell this beautiful man with an angelic face carries a demon inside of him, a monster no one can tame, not even me, his mate.

    Dahlia’s POV:“This way!” Scar points us to the direction of a tunnel, which I didn’t know was hidden under one area in the house that will lead us to the borders. We can’t use any transportation. Tatum already had that taken care of to ensure the women can’t escape, nor can the women shift into their wolves because they were bound by him. But Thalia was certain once they make it past the border, they’ll be able to shift and break free from Tatum’s wicked spell. That was right, he was too cruel to bound these women’s wolves, locking them away from their human counterpart. It is that which make us werewolves, that which we hold onto our identity and that makes us who we are. With their wolves gone, they will always live feeling something missing, like a hole shot straight into their hearts. I can’t even imagine how to live like that, without my wolf. Diana whimpers at the thought, she hates to be locked away just as much as I don’t want her to, which only strengthens her and my resolve

    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

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.

    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
