"Beg me." His voice was like a jagged edge, slicing through the tension in the air.
“What?” I gasped, my heart racing in disbelief at his command.
“Beg me for forgiveness by looking into my eyes.” I hesitated, then lifted my gaze to meet his. His eyes were mesmerizing, shifting colors in a way that felt almost magical—deep amber swirling into a warm honey hue. It left me stunned, almost dizzy. Why was he doing this? If he wanted me dead, he could easily do it. I was just an omega—so fragile and weak in his presence.
"Don't look away," he murmured, his voice low and dangerous. "You know I can make you my puppet, but I don’t want to do that. I want to see your helplessness. Look into my eyes and start obeying me."
“What if I don’t?” I managed to say, finding a flicker of defiance within me. I was alone in this world; no one loved me. Nothing could be worse than the emptiness I felt. What did I have left to fight for?
His eyes narrowed, shifting to a furious crimson, streaked with yellow like a storm about to unleash its fury. He lunged forward, seizing my arm with a grip that sent shivers down my spine. I struggled against his hold, but his strength was like iron.
"You belong to me now. You are my property. Forget about your freedom; if you try to escape again, I will make your life a nightmare. Now, it’s time to show your obedience," he hissed, his voice tinged with madness, his grip tightening around my throat.
I could barely breathe as fear coursed through me. I was trapped, caught in his gaze and his power. He studied me, his expression emotionless, as if he were examining an object rather than a person. Then, with a sudden jerk, he released my throat and threw me over his shoulder.
“Someone, please, help me!” I screamed, kicking my legs in a desperate attempt to free myself. But he ignored my cries, striding into a room and tossing me onto the bed with a thud.
Panic surged within me, and I crawled backward, trying to escape the inevitable. My heart raced as he grabbed my wrist, tying it to the bed frame with his belt. I fought against the restraints, but they held tight.
“Stop! What are you doing?” I shouted, my throat dry with fear.
He walked to the closet, pulling out another belt, and I felt my heart drop.
“No, please! I’m sorry!” I cried, tears spilling down my cheeks as he approached me again. But my pleas fell on deaf ears. He bound my other wrist just as tightly, leaving me helpless.
“Tonight, you’ll stay awake and look at me. You will remember who I am and who you belong to. If you close your eyes for even a moment, whatever happens next, I won’t be responsible for it, got it?” His tone was chilling, and he touched my jaw lightly.
My heart sank. My father had warned me about monsters, but this was real. And Declan, he left me. One of my protectors was gone, and I felt utterly alone.
“Moon Goddess, end my life.” I whispered, closing my eyes as I prayed from the depths of my heart, hoping against hope that he might spare me.
“Oh, I see you’re begging for something,” he said, a smirk crossing his face. “I knew you were a virgin. And I’m looking forward to being your first.” His words slurred slightly, as if he were intoxicated, making my skin crawl.
Fear paralyzed me, but I opened my eyes wide, staring at him without saying a word. I knew I had to be brave, but the terror of his intentions made my body tremble.
"That's a good girl," he said, settling down on a sofa, his honey-like eyes locked onto me, scrutinizing my every move. I met his gaze with defiance, fury burning in my chest.
“You’ll regret this, Alpha. I swear it!” I spat, trying to be strong, even though I felt so vulnerable.
“Oh, I’m counting on it.” His smile only widened, a cruel twist of satisfaction on his lips.
When I opened my eyes, I found myself in the same bed, but this time it was filled with bright morning light instead of darkness. Panic shot through me, and I jumped up. I had no idea when I fell asleep or when he left. The memory of last night made my blood boil, but I felt powerless. His gaze was intense; he could control anyone with just one look. I glanced around, desperate to find him. Why was I still here?He wasn’t around. As I stood, I noticed I was wearing a navy blue sweater and a shirt. Something felt off, so I pulled off the blanket and saw I was in gray sweatpants. They were a little loose, but at least my legs were covered. Then the realization hit me.Had he dressed me? A chill ran down my spine. Just then, the door swung open, making me jump. A girl wheeled in a food trolley, and I was left speechless.“Did he really do this?” I thought. No way.“Good afternoon!” she chirped, and I snapped my head up. She wore a white shirt and black jeans, with fair skin and blonde ha
“She is wolf-less, worse even than omega. How dare she try to marry my son? She must pay for it.” Alpha King was yelled, walking furiously. Hearing these words, Declan stood frozen in the doorway, his heart pounding. His father's words hung heavy in the air, suffocating him. He quickly entered the room. Alpha Logan, his older brother and the Alpha King's right hand, turned to look at him with a hardened expression. The disappointment in his brother's eyes cut Declan deeper than any blade ever could.“I want her alive or dead. Kill that low girl.” The Alpha King's voice echoed through the room, commanding and cold. Hearing the order to kill her, Declan felt a surge of anger rises within him. His father's words were like a death sentence, a request that tore at his very soul."No!" Declan's voice rang in the room. “She is innocent. This was just my intention. You won’t touch her.” Alpha King's gaze turned to Declan, his eyes flashing with fury."You dare defy me, boy?" he growled, the p
Elena’s P.O.V.“That is strange,” I murmured, sitting before the mirror, my gaze locked on my reflection with a mix of surprise and confusion. In my black hair, some thick braids were turning golden. This looked pretty, but strange.My hair was black, and now it was turning golden in one night. Is this magic?“Ahhhh, Beta’s daughter, you are never so lucky to possess any power. You are weak and even wolf-less. Everybody hates you, especially the Moon Goddess, and do you think that she will give you a hidden power? Oh no. She just gave me a good appearance that proved to be useless.” I sighed in helplessness. But a tall figure’s reflection waved in front of my eyes.“Declan.” He claimed that I was his mate, but I knew he couldn’t accept this bond. He was Alpha King’s son. He can’t do that. But he was kind in a place filled with mean and selfish people. He listens to me, cares for me, and has a kind heart.“Elena, it's 8 o'clock. Where have you been?” A commanding voice took me out of m
Lying in the cold dungeon, my body throbbed with pain from the beating I endured. I tried to get up, but the pain in my body made me paralyzed. My mind raced with fear and anger. How could they treat me like this just because I hadn't shifted yet? It wasn't my fault that I didn't have a wolf.If I weren’t so weak, I would not be there. This thought made me cry. Everyone knew that I was weak and wolf-less.Why did I have to bear all this? Why was I born, Moon Goddess? There was no need for me. I was born years ago, got humiliation every day, and now I will die like that.I always longed for someone to love me, but it never happened. Nobody talked to me nicely except Declan."Declan..." His thought gave me hope. Where could he be? Did he know what was happening to me? Would he come to save me? He promised he would protect me, but why isn't he here now?I looked at my bruised and swollen body, the evidence of their cruelty. As I tried to sit up, I heard the sound of the door opening, and
“Stop.” A heavy and commanding voice cut through the silence. My heart raced as I turned to see who it was. A big man entered with four men beside him. Our pack’s guard struggled to get out of his grip but couldn’t. Standing in front of us, he cut the throat of the guard and then tossed the lifeless body at Alpha Steven’s feet.Alpha Steven got up from his seat. His face turned pale, and sweat appeared on his forehead. I never saw him like that.“We thought you would be troubled. That's why I have come.” I heard his heavy, arrogant voice.“Alpha Logan.” Everyone bowed in reverence to him. In shock, I looked at him again. He was sitting majestically on the couch.Dark blond hair, almond-shaped eyes whose ice blue color was giving me a chill, strong cheekbones, short stubble, and full lips, with a slightly flat upper lip. Three buttons on his shirt were unbuttoned, revealing perfectly toned chest muscles. I never saw him, but Declan always talked about his perfect brother, ‘Alpha Logan’
When my eyes opened, I felt a sense of unease. Confusion clouded my mind as I tried to piece together the events leading up to this moment."Where am I?” Curiosity overcame me, and I couldn’t help but wonder: What was this place?Instead of the somber darkness and a cage I had expected, I found myself in a warm and inviting room. The soft glow emanating from the lights created an atmosphere of comfort and solace.The room appeared to be well-furnished, with cozy armchairs and a crackling fireplace that radiated gentle warmth."Where am I?” A wave of fear washed over me. To my surprise, I found myself in a blue silk gown.“He took me here; why?” I whispered in shock. Frantically, I looked around the room, hoping to find some answers.Suddenly, a chilling sound pierced through the silence, causing a shiver to run down my spine. The next moment, the door opened, and a figure standing beside the door caught my attention. She was a maid, maybe."W., where is Declan?” I asked nervously.“Al
With a jerk, he pushed me aside, and I stumbled. Suddenly, my mind becomes blank. What did he say? Why don’t I remember it now? He said something, but what was it? Why did it disappear from my mind in a moment?“You will be presented in the pack’s council at lunar night. The rule must be followed, and you will be punished for what you made my brother do.” He sneered and got up from his seat. I looked at him in shock.“What did I do? I didn’t even meet Declan for a month.” I took a step back and said it with trembling lips. Pack’s council name sent a shiver down my spine.“Don’t try to fool me. You have to bear the consequences. I never forgive; you will pay for the crime you committed.” He said it with disdain and moved forward. The breath stuck in my throat."Don't, please, don’t do it. I will do what you say. Please tell me where Declan is. Is he fine?” I asked, and suddenly he came closer to me.“What will you give me in return, little girl?" He demanded.“I can work here as your m
The night breeze slips through the cracks in this cramped little cupboard, and my thin top is no protection against the cold. I hugged myself and clutched the worn sheet in my hands with shaking hands. Tears lingered in the corners of my eyes.I looked around to find that I was not alone. Many young girls were there, all tired, broken, and unconscious.I tried to move my hands some more, but couldn’t. There are giant chains around my hands; they must know that they will be strong enough to break free from the rope. This, on the other hand, didn't seem like a regular chain. It looked like the kind that held giant beasts captive. My heart rate accelerates, and my movements become more desperate."HELP!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. "SOMEBODY HELP ME!"Damn Alexander! I will have my revenge.It had been a day since they dragged me to this dark, cold dungeon. I still couldn’t piece together the reason why, but I knew—today was the day of my sentencing. The murmur of the guards outsi
