“Remember me?” He leaned closer, his voice a low, rough whisper. His smile was cold, almost mocking, as he watched me struggle to find my voice. My mouth opened, but no words came out—I was too stunned, too scared. Why hadn’t he killed me yet? I was at the council meeting but now….
I yanked the blanket over myself, retreating back against the wall, my body trembling. He chuckled softly, the sound dark and unsettling.
“Don't worry, Omega. I don't eat sweet things so quickly. I like to savor them... slowly.” His eyes gleamed with something dangerous. My breath caught in my chest—did he just smile? No, he can’t. He is a devil.
“M-My clothes?” I stammered, my voice barely a whisper, fear tightening my throat.
“Gone. Threw them away. I don’t like dirty things.” His voice was deep, and rough, sending shivers through me. I couldn’t understand—why did he bring me here? What did he want from me?
I forced myself to ask, though my voice shook. “Where am I?” His eyes never left me, sharp and intense.
“You’re in my world now. Right where I want you.” He took a step closer, and I pulled the blanket tighter around myself, feeling utterly exposed.
“You didn’t kill me?” I asked, my voice barely holding steady. He tilted his head, a shadow crossing his face.
“No, but I could change my mind. I could cut you into little pieces right now.” His tone was chilling, a threat that made my blood run cold. I looked at the door, maybe I should try to run, even for once.
“Run.” The word snapped from his lips, and I froze, heart hammering. Did he read my mind?
“Run, little Omega.” He moved closer, his voice almost playful but laced with danger. “Why aren’t you running? Aren’t you afraid of death?” He gripped my chin, forcing me to meet his intense gaze.
“Did... did you ra*e me?” I managed to ask, pulling away from his touch, my eyes brimming with tears. He laughed, the sound dark and sinister.
“That’s not my game, sweetheart. But if you want me to…” He left the sentence hanging, his smirk making my stomach twist with fear. Relief flickered for a moment, but his words kept me on edge.
“Please, just give me my clothes,” I begged, desperation leaking into my voice. He chuckled again, leaning in closer until I could feel his breath on my skin.
“You’re so eager for your clothes, but you’re still here, talking to me. Interesting.” His fingers brushed against my cheek, sending a shiver through me.
“Please,” I whispered, not daring to pull away this time. “I am innocent, believe me. Let me go, I can do anything if you….” He put a finger to my lips to cut my sentence, his expression darkening.
“You don’t get it, do you? You think I’d bargain with a weak little thing like you?” He stepped closer, his presence overwhelming. “Run. It’s your last chance.”
The command snapped me out of my shock, and I pushed him away, clutching the blanket tightly as I ran for the door.
“Run, Omega, run!” His mocking voice followed me, but I focused on escaping, my legs carrying me as fast as they could.
I reached the door, flinging it open—only to find a bathroom. Panic surged through me, but I spun around, rushing back out, hoping to find a way out. He was playing with me—like a cat with a trapped mouse.
My heart pounded as I reached a hallway, my bare feet slapping against the cold floor. I spotted a golden elevator at the end and ran towards it, praying for an escape. But when I reached it, I saw it needed a fingerprint to open.
“Please, please…” I whispered to myself, hammering the button in desperation. But then, I felt a touch—his hand closing over mine, firm and unyielding.
“Time’s up, little omega.” His voice was right behind me, close enough that I could feel the warmth of his breath. My heart dropped, legs trembling as I felt his body press against mine.
“You told me to run!” I pleaded, my voice breaking, barely able to breathe.
“And you stopped.” He turned me to face him, his grip bruising my arm. “Do you think an Alpha would just let you go?” His eyes glowed with a dangerous light, and I felt my blood turn cold.
“I-I didn’t do anything wrong!” I cried, tears streaming down my cheeks. “I didn’t ask for any of this!”
His expression twisted into a sneer.
“An omega like you shouldn’t even dream of an Alpha’s mercy. Now, you’re going to pay the price.” He squeezed my arm tighter, his tone filled with a dark promise. “I brought you here with a vow—to end your life, nice and slow. You want death, right? Let’s do it.”
Pain shot through me as his grip dug into my shoulder. I let out a cry, but he didn’t flinch, his eyes locked onto me with an unnerving focus.
Suddenly, his fingers bit into my skin, and I gasped in pain. Was he really going to kill me? His cold smile sent shivers down my spine.
“You should have run faster, little omega.”
"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
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
