Footsteps are quickly approaching. Each sound sent chills down her spine. Her back was stuck to the wall. Her sweaty palm rubbed against the wall. She swallowed hard and closed her eyes, her chest burning and her heart settling into her belly. Her heartbeat was pounding so fast that she could not control it anymore. “Find me before I find you, bitch!” His voice thundered in her ears, but she remained silent, careful not to make any sounds. She would not want to be found because she would be considered dead meat. "If I find you, you will curse the day you were born," he said, slowly approaching her. She decides to find Don, knowing full well that if he finds her first, he will not back down on his words. A deep breath. Her eyes opened gradually, but he had already found her. He stood in front of her, palms dipped into his pockets, his eyes golden-orange and dazzling like a flame of fire. She wanted to say something, maybe a sentence, to tell him that she had no intention of letting
She was doused with a bucket of water. She jolted off the floor, her eyes widening in surprise. A glimpse at her torso revealed that she was dripping—her entire outfit was soaked. "How long have I been unconscious?" she murmured under her breath, looking at the faces before her. "What do I owe you all?" she said, her voice mimicking. Two of the men approached, lifted her up, and then moved aside. She was attempting to figure out what was going on while also recalling what had happened back there with the fiend known as Alpha. Her palm brushed against her garments lightly. A gentle swallow. “Finally awake!?” A strange voice emerged from behind. Her neck swiveled when she noticed a young man in his forties carrying a digger and shovel. He moved closer to her, stretching his hands. "You shall dig a twenty-inch hole, as instructed by the Alpha Don." She eventually recalled when the Don had given that command, so she dared not say anything. "Now, come with me..." She followed him as inst
“His Majesty sends for his slave!” a masculine voice echoed in her ear. She could tell she had heard that voice somewhere; it was familiar. She let go of the digger and raised her body to face his Beta, who was staring at her with terrifying eyes. "You must follow me as per His Majesty's orders," he said, and Elena followed. With a backward glance, she met the slave master's eyes, whose lips formed a sinister smile. She trailed behind the Beta as they entered the palace and proceeded to the Don's doorway. He pressed the doorbell. "Your slave has arrived, Alpha Don," the Beta said before opening the door. Elena could tell from his stares that it was an order for her to enter. "Your Majesty, this is Elena, your slave... " She clutched her arms together under her lower abdomen.Her head was bent low, but her lids raised slightly, allowing her to see his legs. Twirling, he squeezed the gun's trigger, sending smoke shooting in her direction. The sound of death reverberated throughout t
While the Mistress was leaving the room, Lena fixed her back to the wall and watched her intently. For the first time in her life, she was shocked by what she had just witnessed. What did he think he accomplished by f*cking his mistress in front of her eyes? The slut does not feel self-conscious either. She scanned his body with her eyes. "Who will refuse his touch? He must be every woman's ideal, and since he is a Mafia member, nobody will ever defy him. I wonder if he thinks he's a god or whatever…” She gave a silent hiss and averted her gaze. Don Dante stood in front of the window, buttoning his shirt. After his wife passed away, he lost his entire life, and the day he lost his daughter, he went insane. He can only have as many women as he wants at this point, slamming them between their thighs more forcefully to uphold his promise to not have Luna by his side. He will be the most self-centered husband if he ever takes another woman into his home under the pretense of being his L
Lena walked sluggishly out of the palace, brooding about the assignment that had been assigned to her. To put her through a little more suffering, he demands that she conduct the errand personally even though everyone knows that the police and investigative bureaus should handle such a chore.A little distance from the palace, she remained motionless, her features sculpted as she examined the picture once more. She recognized that face, but there was one thing she was unable to do: remember where they had first met. Or was it just an imagination? "I had nothing to do with him—he is not even a young guy." She slipped the picture inside her dress and continued walking, without planning to check the assignment once more.She squinted as she walked past a roasted chicken that was being sold. “I have no dime with me for the first time in my life, or I would have grabbed one…” she licked her lips, savoring the aroma of the chicken. "I can just leave, and he will not be able to locate me aga
In the woods, Lena sat with her legs crossed. Her eyes were fixed on a spot as she continued panting. Moments passed, but she has not been herself. After running a great distance without stopping, she felt as though time would erupt and she would lose it all.With a gasp, she released her breath through her lips, repositioned, and then scanned her surroundings with her gaze. She mumbled, continuing looking around, "I can finally depart from here after having enough rest—"She closed her eyes tightly, attempting to preserve the face of the body she saw laying in her father's house while she relived everything that had happened there. "That picture!" She took it out and hurled it straight to the ground. “It's this face! It was him!” she clutched her palms to her chest. “What…what is he doing there?” She realized that the room was frigid and covered with blood.Right then, her heart began to sink into her stomach. “Wait! My father…..” she shook her head, not trying to even think about it
The wolf in her continued to whine in order to unite with her mate. Even while her body was heated and moans of anguish escaped her esophagus, exhilaration rose up inside her. Her genital regions filled up, and her labia struggled to keep up with the dampness and clear fluid that gushed out of her pussy.Her eyes closed as she slid to the floor, grabbing her garments and slipping them down her body. Thanks to the moon goddess she was already marked, or her heat would attract lots of unmated males of the Pack to rest on her.Her breathing accelerated. She tried not to touch herself, knowing that the man who had marked her was still sitting in front of her, watching her as she struggled to get over her heat.She had never considered going into heat anytime soon, not even in the next full moon, but now she understood why her wolf had opposed her leaving the Pack before the full moon.Struggling to get over it, she couldn't. Squeezing her fist did not matter since her hands moved down her
As Alpha Nathan arrived, he saw Lena on the floor and reached over to lift her. Even though he was not her mate, he had been following her scent to locate her and calm her because he knew she would be in heat tonight.Don Dante made a protective position over Lena and shook him off as he bent to cradle her."Attempting to eclipse the Don, what does that mean?" his icy tone echoed back to the trio. He smirked and looked at Lena, who had sat up. “What is the Alpha of Celestial Pack doing in my privacy with my mate? Why would you invade my territory?”Lena's pulse was racing because she did not want to think about what would transpire in front of her eyes between the two Alpha Kings. She is certain that Alpha Nathan has not let up his rage because she has known him since they were young and they were friends before they started to feel something for one another.Speaking of which, the Alpha Don is a demon himself who would tear Nathan to pieces if he were to come across his way. Consider
CHAPTER 38 As Lena left, Alfred released a deep breath. He looked around to see the armed men almost close to him. He shook his head, “I'm not their priority. They can still leave me to live and go after her…” he looked at the direction Lena took. “We have to meet again, Lena. We didn't grow together, but I felt that bond. We have to live and spend time together…even if we won't have parents anymore.”His lips pulled apart slightly. He glanced around and found a heavy stone, which he grabbed.“They can't find me either. They won't find us. We don't have to lose each other after meeting again. My mother is also waiting for me.” he blinked, letting his tears roll down his cheeks.With all his might, he threw the stone to a distance, and it rolled over, going down deeper.He chuckled as the men felt that was the direction they took and headed towards the area. He slowly got to his feet and took the other way, heading to a destination he didn't know.When he felt he had walked enough and
CHAPTER 37 Alfred tapped Lena. He pulled her backwards, and they went back into the inner room. “This won't work! It's risky!!” he released a hot breath. “Look, let's just distract them. They are too huge to be fought. We will end up dead as they wish if we make any mistake…”Lena rolled her eyes. She felt so baffled that her body seemed to be on fire. Even though she wishes to die instead of Alfred, a part of her wants her to live for her son. She believes that someday, she will meet with her son and will even be welcomed back by the Don again.She sighed deeply and looked at Alfred. “So, how do you think we will distract them?”“Let's wait till they fall deep asleep. They can't cheat nature. They will certainly doze off at a time.” he suggested, and she nodded. “Do you think we will be able to get their boss’ medicine?”Lena shook her head. She had already thought about it several times and found no solution to that. “I believe he takes the treatment at the hospital, so whatever me
CHAPTER 36 Tyrion picked up the cigarette, looked at it, and dropped it on the floor. “It's a pity I won't have it again.” he shook his head pitifully. “I have to live, not for a few years, but for how long I wish.” he rubbed his finger on his lips. “Make sure they don't have a way to escape from there…..” The young man standing before him bowed to him. “It's already well protected—”He picked up the envelope on the floor and pulled out the letter in it. For the fifth time, he read it and burst into laughter that wasn't ordinary. “I found it the last day I stepped foot in her father's home. That day, I wept even as the man that I was and vowed to find her brother for her no matter what….but she disorganized everything and even found him herself….” he dropped the envelope on the floor and stood up.He had known that Lena had a lost brother but hid it because he planned to surprise her with her family, only to get stabbed by her master's mate that he also cared for.“If I had known th
CHAPTER 35 Elena was tossed into a little hut-like room. She groaned when her arm hit the floor, wincing silently in pain. Sending her hot saliva down her throat, she opened her eyes to see Beta Tyrion squatting before her—sending shivers down her spine.She gasped and shifted backwards, pointing her fingers at him. “Aren't you supposed to be dead? What are you doing here? Who was executed, if not you?” her voice was shaky. She was sure if Tyrion was impersonated, then he must have done all that just to deal with her like he promised.He grinned, tapping his index fingertip on the floor. “Ridiculous? “ he shook his head. “She seems astounded….” she stood up and gripped his jacket. “You fucking think I will have to die because of you? Why should I when I've been on my master's side before he met you….and then I will be the one to pass on because of you huh?”She bit her bottom lip. “Stop claiming to be the victim when you are the culprit—” she exhaled deeply. “If you didn't offend you
CHAPTER 34 “My feet are so damn bruised now…” Lena lifted her leg, seated on the floor, while checking her foot. She had pulled off her footwear when she found it difficult to run faster, but now, she was regretting it. “I will wait until it's healed before I continue…” she mumbled and positioned her bag to use it as a pillow, and then she laid down.Looking into the sky, she exhaled deeply, reminiscing on Alfred and how she had left without saying goodbye. However, she believed it was better, so they won't want to stop her or come after her. But then, one thing still baffles her—why he passed out when she touched her.She had never experienced such a thing before, and her wolf was saying nothing about it.“My baby—” she sniffled. “He must be crying now. I can hear his cries…” she blinked and turned over to lie on her side.She was already in the streets, but couldn't tell where exactly she was. It looked so calm, and people were barely walking around, or maybe she was still at the t
CHAPTER 33 Ten minutes later, a splash of water awoke Alfred. His eyes sprang open when he noticed he was lying on the floor. Gently, he sat up to meet his mother, who kept staring at him. She was stunned to see him lying on the floor after waiting for him to show up in the kitchen.Alfred wiped his face. “Mum!!” he swallowed softly, winking. “Where is Elena?”The elderly woman glanced around. “Shouldn't I be asking you?”He gazed at his mother's face. Something was odd about him. There's a feeling that had never ignited in him since he knew himself as a living being. “Are you okay? There are lots of customers to serve. How did you end up here?” she stood up, grasping her apron. “I was waiting for you but didn't see you, so I decided to serve them all before searching for you….”He made a long face. “Really? Are they more important to you than my whereabouts?” he forced himself to stand, dusting his clothes. “You didn't see me and wanted to serve your customers first. What if I was
CHAPTER 32 “Get the two bowls and serve them….” Alfred referred to Lena, who was stretching her hips. She had worked all day, serving people in the tavern owned by the family that had saved her. It's just a night, and she already felt at home.Each time she sets her eyes on the young man who had the same looks and birthmark as her, she feels there is another family left, but one thing still baffles her…..who was that guy exactly? Several times, she had inquired….but he insisted that they never met for once and he was part of the family that brought him in. His father was dead….he was just left with a mother and no siblings. To think of it, why doesn't he have the same looks as his mother? All those had haunted her throughout the night. She woke up several times at midnight and took a good look at the guy.Something was also weird about him. His mother was a human, and he was a werewolf—but a powerless wolf. He doesn't have a scent either. It seemed his wolf was suppressed and wasn'
CHAPTER 31 The sun was setting, and Lena was yet to leave the woods. She had walked throughout the night until she passed the border but had yet to enter the lively area of the next pack. She felt exhausted and sat under a tree, leaning on it to get some rest.She stared at the broad branches of the tree and scoffed. “I didn't even give my son a name. His father will now do that.” she was weak down to her feet, and she had nothing with her that would generate some energy for her.“I can get a wild fruit here—” she sat up and continued her journey, slowly searching for fruits that she would ingest to hold her for some time. Once she enters the lively part of the next pack, she would purchase food with the money she has.After a long walk, she was still unable to get a fruit within the space.Wiping her perspiration, she sat on the floor again. “I need just a little strength to enter the next pack—just a little one,” she murmured and landed with her back on the floor, placing her head
CHAPTER 30 One of the royal guards rushed to Alpha Dante the moment he alighted from his car. He shut the door and dipped the car key into his pocket. “Why are you panting?” his brows arched, gazing at the guard still.“Your Majesty, the maids seem to be fighting. The palace has been in a roar for about an hour now.” the guard narrated and lifted his head. “When I inquired what was going on, I was told that Mistress Evelyn had sneaked into the baby’s room and poisoned the meal….but unfortunately, she was caught by the new servant, Susan who had beaten her to a pulp.”Unexpectedly, Alpha burst into laughter. Now, he can tell why Lena wanted Susan inside the palace as one of her servants.He walked past the guard and entered the palace building, his palms dipped into his pockets. “Evelyn has always been cautious, but this time, she was reckless because her cup was full and was overflowing. I've had enough of them here…” he pondered as he walked straight into the hallway that connected
