Hades Blackwood, like his name sounded, was as dark as night. He is the King of Blackwood pack, a pack sworn to uphold secrecy and a threat to neighboring packs. However, under his all brooding personality is a child crying for help. A young lad whose dreams had been shattered, replaced with nothing but pain. Unlike others, Hades embraced this pain. He turned it into armor, a shield to protect himself with. Alpha Hades Blackwood, the well known powerful lycan king had always been hunted by a fragment of his past, of the night his parents and more than half of his pack had been massacred. He lives for revenge. Clamors for it. He’s always wanted revenge or so he thought until an opportunity to exert his revenge reared its head. But what happens then when he finally meets the enemy he’s searched far and wide for only to be met with an angel? Will he give in to the fiery wild passion her body promises to render or would he be so deeply damaged that only revenge is what he seeks for? The moon goddess is a tricky being. Delve into this story surrounding Hades’ plight as he’s forced between tearing either Hailey’s or his world down as she happens to not just be his mate but his brother’s as well, … and his other brother’s.
View MoreHailey’s POVIt all happened so fast. One minute I was shitting my pants, scared as Savannah pressed the blade to my neck and the next minute, she was plunging it in. I have no idea if she had intended for it to go this deep but it had and now, I was choking on my own blood with my hands wrapped around my neck, in a silly excuse to stop the blood flow.I could hear screams, angered shouts and curious questions, and from the way I was soon attacked by the scent of two utterly sweet but strong male scents, I instantly knew that Trent and Chad had joined us. Someone’s arms were wrapped around my body but I had no idea who it was, however, I was sure that it was Trent or Chad, because I was certain that it wasn’t Hades. Hades was utterly pissed, so pissed that right now, even in this state, I could see how his hands were around Savannah’s neck as he hoisted her off the floor.More shouts. More screams… that was all I heard as the world around me began to shift. Everything became blurry, a
Hailey’s POVWhat woke me up was the sound of something scratching at my door. I sat up in fright as I felt my way around the bed, then to the bedside table until I was able to get what I was looking for, the lamp’s switch, and after successfully turning it on, I glanced around the room, squinting as the golden hue casted by the lamp brightened the once dark space.But the scratching sound didn’t stop.Now, it was safe to say that I was immensely scared. My body shook as I slowly got up from bed and tiptoed towards the door. Normally, I knew that I shouldn’t even be going there. Hell, I was in a house full with people I knew nothing about, and people I was sure didn’t like me one bit, and for all I knew, this could be a ploy, a way to get me out of bed, to open this door and only God knows what next was meant to happen.These thoughts made me halt my movements and with wide eyes, I continued to stare at the thick wooden door as the scratching continued, it even began to grow louder as
Hades’ POVIT was past midnight and I still couldn’t sleep. Now, as I stared out the window into the dark bushes that surrounded my pack house, I couldn’t help but think about my prisoner, my new slave, Hailey. It has been a routine for me since the past few days as she was all I could think of, all my brothers could think of, and while I sought for ways to help them stop obsessing over her, I realized to my own disappointment that I had also begun to obsess over her.And I hated it.My face was contorted into a frown and my arms folded over my chest as I looked out, as if expecting some miracle intervention, something, just anything that could help me out of this dilemma, but I found none. Another thing that bothered me immensely was the fact that she said she couldn’t remember a thing, she could remember nothing about her past, her parents… Hell, she said she couldn’t even remember her pack! And boy, I struggled with believing that.I was still so lost in thoughts that I didn’t rea
Hailey’s POV“You know she’s not meant to be touched,” Chad stated in a matter of fact tone as he stepped into the room, and all the while, his eyes never left my face.I dropped my head and fisted my sweaty hands into my dress and while he spoke, I tried not to pay any attention to him because my heart was beating so fast, and I was trying so hard to calm the raging organ. “Do we have to follow Hades' rules all the time?” Trent answered, sounding pissed. He opened his mouth as if to continue but before he could get the words out of his mouth, Chad beat him to it. Chad snapped;“It’s not about following rules. This is his slave… he bought her.”“And she’s my mate.”“She’s also my mate too but you don’t see me trying to jump her or do you?” Chad spat, which immediately made Trent seal his mouth shut.I couldn’t look up. I couldn’t look at any of them, especially after knowing what I would find. Trent would be looking sorry and would have regret painted all over his face and Chad, Chad
Hailey’s POVI stood rooted to the spot, contemplating whether I should leave or stay back like Trent had asked me to. Hades’ anger made me hesitant and truth be told, he was the only triplet I was immensely afraid of.When wouldn’t move or wouldn’t turn back to them, Savannah scoffed. I didn’t need to see her face to know that she was rolling her eyes. With her excessively fake high-pitched voice, she exclaimed; “Hades baby, please let’s go. I have no idea why your brother has taken a likeness to the slave.”The room fell deathly silent after that. It was as if her comment was the one thing that had finally broken the Camel’s back. I turned around then, just in time to see Hades pull his arm aggressively out of her hold. He stepped back, away from her, and without sparing her even the smallest glance, he drawled; “You should leave. I need to talk to my brother and the slave.”“But Hades..?”“Leave!” He bellowed and I could swear that I felt the walls shake from the intensity of his v
Hailey’s POVThe next few days flew past, literally. Fortunately, the triplets were nowhere to be seen and even though their absence made me feel a bit peaceful, I still couldn’t help but wonder what they were up to. Most of all, I was worried as to what they may have in store for me the next time we met and trust me, none of the things I could imagine were good. Today, for the first time in a long time, I went downstairs, because I was bored, to the hallway and again, I was hit with the initial shock I felt when I saw that portrait for the first time. The portrait of a younger version of me.Something like bile rose up in my throat while I stared at it and a shudder ran up my spine at the thought. What if the child was me and Hades wasn’t lying? If so, then why was a portrait of me hung here with the most gruesome scene painted as its background?I was so lost in these thoughts that I did not notice the sound of footsteps approaching me. However, when I realized, it was too late and
Hailey’s POV“I didn’t invite you because there’s no party.” Hades answered, fixating his firm gaze on his brother, Chad, who grunted as soon as the words left his lips. “Moreover, my woman here isn’t very comfortable around the both of you… yet.”“You forget that the ‘woman’ is also ours too.” Chad spat and I couldn’t help but roll my eyes at him.At this point, I wanted to throw my hands into the air, wave it in their faces and remind them that I was a person not an object, and that I was right in front of them just in case they had forgotten but I decided against it. I couldn’t because I was nothing but a slave to them, a slave looking for means to escape this hell and if I must, then I had to ensure that I did nothing to spark their interest or attention.While Hades and Chad argued about claiming ownership of me, my eyes trailed to the quiet one at the back, Trent. Trent’s burly arms were folded across his chest and he had a lazy expression on his face as he watched his brothers
Hailey’s POV He didn’t say a word and neither did I as the pretty blonde staff served the food on the table, and then bowed to him before muttering; “Alpha, your food is served now, you may eat.” Hades dismissed the girl then but that is after he threw another pointed look at me. It was obvious that he knew I had lied about the food just to get the girl here but he said nothing until she had walked out of the room. Then he turned to the door too, but just as I thought that he was about to leave, he fastened the door’s lock, threw the key into his pocket then dipped his hands into the same pocket as he leaned against the door to glare at me. “What did you try to do earlier?” He drawled in that low seductive voice of his that always managed to get me wet. “And why were you trying to attack me?” As the questions left his lips, all I could do was shake my head because I knew that no amount of explanation could make excuses for what I had intended to do. I had called the girl up h
Hailey’s POV “What is your name?” The guy, Chad asked me while the other stood behind him with the ghost of a smile dancing across his lips. I looked up at them but said nothing. Deep down, I contemplated not answering them at all but one look at Hades had me opening my mouth immediately. I rushed out; “Hailey, my name is Hailey.” “Beautiful name, Hailey,” Chad continued and this time, both Hades and the other man scoffed in disbelief. “Brother, you never told us about a woman,” the other who had been quiet the entire time said, and while he did, his eyes never left my body even for once. “So who is she? And why does she smell like a rogue?” The way they regarded me was so disrespectful; it was almost as if they had decided that I was not in the room with them even though I was, and it made me so uncomfortable that I stepped further away from them. If it was possible, I would’ve ran back into the bathroom but I couldn’t. Knowing how unfortunate I was, they would catch me even
~Hades’ POV~I woke up with a start, to the sound of gunshots all around us. In a panic, I rolled out of my bunk bed, shook my two brothers awake, and waited impatiently for Chad who rubbed his eyes sleepily.“What is it, brother?” This time it was Trent who asked. I threw him a look of confusion but before I could reply, another gunshot rang through the night. This one was louder than the last and sounded so close to us. As if on cue, a loud painful cry was heard shortly afterwards. It tore through the silence, piercing my soul. Good enough, Chad stopped rubbing his eyes as he was now wide awake. His dark green orbs were as round as saucers as he stared at me and in a fierce whisper, he asked; “What was that? A gunshot? What do we do?!”I was scared. I had no answers to his questions and worst of all, I was just as clueless as he was. One of the things that bothered me the most was the fact that amidst all the chaos happening, our parents were nowhere to be found.I snapped; “let’...
