I couldn’t believe it. Slade hadn’t died. The same man who had ruined I and my mother's life was still alive, and he was a part of all this.

I didn’t agree with Daemon on many things, but there was one quote I did: ‘Justice is not real.’ A man like Slade deserves to die in the worst way possible, yet he still lives.

“You seem a bit quiet. Still thinking about Slade?” Daemon asked as we headed to the meeting room.

“He deserved to die.”

“Yes, he does, but you don’t have to worry; he is useless without a body. The chances of things going as he planned is very low. The warlock Flynn might be powerful, but so is Logan.”

“Thank you all for joining us.” Daemon said to the Alphas gathered, some of them came along with their Beta. Daemon took a seat, and I had to sit beside him. I spotted Trent and immediately looked away; I couldn’t let Daemon have any suspicions. I knew very well how that had ended with Regnux.

“There is a matter of importance I want to discuss with you all.” Damon bega

    I rose to my feet. It didn’t make much of a difference. Vox had a very intimidating height. “Now you listen to me.” I said to Vox, “You are in my pack; I didn’t remember inviting you here. You captured my mate too. In his absence, I am the leader here, so you could go be the Lord over your little demons but not here.” “Shut up, Riley.” Damon warned. “You shut up. This is my pack, and I will sabotage every single plan you make.” Vox had a look of irritation on his face; suddenly I felt a burning sensation right in my chest, spreading through my whole body, and I fell down to my knees. “What... what are...” I couldn’t complete the word. I coughed out blood; the pain only got more unbearable. “I still need her alive. The pack needs their Luna for now; with her by my side, there would be fewer suspicions.” “Then put your woman on a leash.” The pain seized, and Vox was gone; he had just… disappeared. “He would have killed you.” Daemon said to me. “Isn’t that why you brou

    I couldn’t bring myself to sleep; Thane clouded my thoughts.“Still thinking about him?” Daemon asked. We both knew who he was referring to.“No.” I lied. “I can tell when you are lying.”“What difference does it make? It's not like you will let me go to him.”“And what if I can?”“Vox wouldn’t let you.” I stated."You know, I have never truly been a 'free' creature. Every time I feel as though I’ve achieved it, I realize I am still in servitude."“It had been from Jade to Bruce and then… Vox.” I said to him, and he nodded in agreement.“I want to ask you a question, and I need a genuine answer from you. When I was gone with Jade, you knew what was going to happen to me. Did you at any moment regret your decision? Did you ever think about me?”I was silent for a long while. “Daemon, I…”“Just answer the question.”“You want an answer, then it’s ‘No:. I never regretted my decision; I never thought about you—at least not in the way you think.”“Do you hate me, Riley?”“I sometimes beli

    Tears welled up in my eyes the moment I spotted Thane. For a moment I thought he was dead, but then I noticed the slight rise and fall of his chest. His facial hair was a bit more grown. I spotted the remains of food they must have kept for him, but knowing him, he would never eat anything from them; he would rather die, and that’s what was happening: Thane was dying. I fell to my knees beside him and managed to lift his body. He was cold, very cold. I immediately pulled off my jacket and wrapped it around him. “Thane!” I cried, but he didn’t seem to hear me. “Thane!” I cried louder, and finally he stared at me. “How… how…” “Don’t speak. I brought you food.” . Only when he was done eating did I speak up. “I’m sorry; I wish I could have done something.” “Are you alright?” He asked; I couldn’t believe him; I should be asking him that question. “I am going to get you out of here, Thane. I promise you.” “Riley, it’s better you stay put. You will get hurt if you make any rash dec

    Daemon stood before me, furious. I crawled away from him. “Don’t touch me.” I warned, but the Daemon I knew was gone, and the monster—the demon—was all I could see. “I’m going to hurt you, Riley, and this time, you deserve it.”A kick to my abdomen sent me flying through the air, and I crashed into the wall with a cry. He walked to me, taking deliberate steps. I aimed for his ankle, trying to make him lose his balance, but he didn’t even flinch at my strike. He picked me up by the hair, his grip firm, no doubt I would lose a few strands. I head-butted him; dark blood poured down his nose, but he didn’t seem to notice that. He slammed me face-first into the jagged cave wall, and I crumpled to the ground.Blood dripped down my face. I curled into a ball as my vision blurred—maybe from the tears, or maybe from the blood.He picked me up once again, this time by the arm, and in a matter of seconds we were back in our room.“Take a bath, wash up. I have work to attend to.”With that he w

    “So the Lycan’s curse, it was never real?” I asked her, and she nodded, wiping the tears off her face. Despite everything, I couldn’t bring myself to feel even a tinge of sympathy for her; Thane had been like a brother to Axel, and yet…Maybe I was just being unreasonable; I mean, if I had been placed in her place and Thane or Ethan’s life was at stake, wouldn’t I do anything to get them back?“No, it wasn’t,” she answered.If this was the truth, then why didn’t Thane tell me any of these? It could be possible that he knew nothing about it yet, or maybe he kept it away from me because he didn’t want me getting involved. He wanted me safe, but he was wrong. I wasn't safe with Daemon; I had lost his trust and gained his hatred.“Why should I believe you?”Everyone seemed to be a traitor; I didn’t know who to believe and who not to, but one thing was clear: I had no choice, and so I was ready to stake it all.“So many times, I have wanted to tell you the truth…”“Like back in the garden?

    Daemon’s hands slipped down my hips; I felt like I had been placed under some kind of spell. My mind knew the right thing to do, but my body… my body was under his spell. Tears streamed down my eyes; this reminded me of time I'd spent under Bailey's control, when I knew what I wanted, but I had no control over my own body. His bite had never had this powerful influence on me, and I guess this was all thanks to Vox.I knew for a fact that right now, if he touched me, if he… did more than just ‘touching,’ I wouldn’t be able to fight him. What I felt now, it was natural, and I hated it. His hand slipped into my pants pocket, and before I could understand what he was doing, he pulled away. He held the piece of paper Pricilla had earlier passed to me in his hands.“I’ll always be one step ahead of you, Riley.”“Is not what you think.”“It’s not?” he asked, and I shook my head. “Then what is it?”“It's nothing.”“If it’s nothing, then you wouldn’t mind this.”In a flicker the paper caught

    I didn’t like the fact that Vox chose the garden for our meeting. This was Riley’s spot. “Vox. Welcome back.” I said to him, I didn’t need to place a fake smile on my lips. Demons weren’t like humans; they couldn’t be easily deceived with falsities. I didn’t like Vox being in this pack either; I couldn’t control him—actually, it was the other way around; he controlled me, and I hated being under another’s control. Of course it always feels exciting at the beginning, but then all of a sudden… it’s just not.“I can see you have not done as I asked. Perhaps you still need more time?”“I have been a bit occupied.” I answered.“With what, if I may ask? Could it have been your little trip?”“What trip?”“You visited the Lycan, didn’t you?” he asked, and I gave no response. “She made you do it.” He added, it wasn’t a question; he was simply stating facts.“It was a mistake that won’t repeat itself.”“I do not believe you. The queen seems to have you wrapped around her finger. You will have

    RILEYI waited until Daemon left before taking the crumpled paper out of the drawer.If he had given even a single glance at the piece of paper he had set on fire, he would have known it wasn’t the right one. It was pure luck that he had searched the wrong pocket. I too had believed it was all over. It wasn't until I had unconsciously dipped my hand into my pocket did I realized it was still there—the portion of the map Pricilla had given me was still there, and that meant there was still a chance. I could find Thane.I was well aware of what Daemon could do if he discovered I had escaped but if I did find Thane, then it would be worth it...Two days. That’s how long it took for me to get to the first location. I had only managed to spot a small scrawny building but other than that, there was nothing else on the wide expanse of land. I had been about to continue on with the journey when I noticed the dim light coming from one of the windows in the building. Someone was in there.I wa

    “It doesn’t have to be this way, you know.” He says. “We don’t have to be this distant.”“I don't get what you're trying to say.”“It could be just the two of us, no fighting, no whores, just us — as mates.”I was silent. He was offering me a life as his mate and his Luna, when we didn’t have to hate each other. Cas would have wanted this; this would have been to her a dream come true, but I didn’t know if this was what I wanted.Maybe I was afraid. Alexander was a charmer, no doubt committing to a man like him could never end well. What if this all turned out to be another game to him? What if breaking my heart was his master plan?Yet, a small part of me lusted after something… different, something new, but then there was the other part—the other part that told me love was never meant for me.“No. It can’t. What happened tonight doesn’t change a thing. I only agreed to this to prove my point, but… You are better off with your whores; things are better off left how they had been.”“Y

    He took off his clothes, all the while, his eyes remained on me. He grasped my hair, motioning for me to rise, his grip almost painful.“I can walk.” I said, not liking his grip on my hair.“I know that, but I like this better,” He threw me onto the bed. “Now bend, with your ass in the air.”I turned red.It was a challenge, one he believed I would back out from. This time, I won’t. Slowly I moved to position. His hands trailed down my back, and then round to grasp onto my breast firmly, and I stilled.“Afraid?”“Fuck you.”“You would like that, wouldn’t you?” He held onto my hair, tight. “Go a bit lower, my little slut.”Tears stung my eyes, but I blinked them away. I wouldn’t cry; he wouldn’t break me.I gasped for breath when he thrust into me, hard. His punishment.“Tight.” He whispered. “Just how small is he?” He wondered aloud; his next thrust was even harder, and he pounded on, going deeper, and then he paused.I could smell the blood. “Now you know.” I whispered, “I’ve never b

    I shoved Aric away, quickly putting some distance between us.Alexander’s gaze met mine, and I thought I saw a look of betrayal on his face before his emotionless mask returned.“Leave.” I said to Aric.“No,” he replied, his eyes also fixed on the Alpha King, his fists clenched.“Get out!” I growled at him, and He gave me a long look before walking away, glancing once more at Alexander on his way out.“Is not what you think…” I began.“So you weren’t about to fuck your beta in our room?” he asked, his voice calm, a different type of calm. The dangerous type.“No, I wasn’t going to do that.”“Lies.” He says, “All lies. I thought you were better than that, Kaida. I did remember making a deal with you; you cannot fuck another man while you are in this pack; that was my rule, and in exchange your ‘conditions’ would be met.”“Aric and I are just friends.”“Friends don’t fuck each other, Kaida. Now tell me, do you prefer older men?”Things had finally started falling into place; my life her

    I had always wanted this; I dreamt about it so many times that it felt surreal now. I dreamt about killing them over and over again.“It must be hard having just one eye left to see with.” He pleaded some more. “You know, you did leave some scars too. I would spend the rest of my life with them, so it’s only fair that I, Kaida Dawn, be the last person you will ever see.”I slashed at his eyes, and his scream grew louder. Soon his cries turned into whimpers.“Just kill me, he pleaded. Please, just kill me.”“Not yet.” I whispered.“I… am—no better than a—” he paused to take in a shaky breath. “I am no better than a dead man… Just kill me and end the torment.”“End the torment? Where is the fun in that?” I asked, and he broke down in tears. “Oh baby, don’t cry, little kitten; no one is going to hurt you. I mean, you didn’t really think you would go scot-free after what you’ve done, did you?”“Please…”“Okay, no more begging; how about we take your tongue next?”“No… no… please!”Begging

    Trigger Warning: The following chapters contain themes of trauma. Read with caution!I followed Alexander down the dungeons.The rogue had been chained up in one of the dungeon rooms.“They will come after you—the rogues; they will become your biggest enemy.” He threatens Alexander, but I could see the fear in his eyes; he knew his death was near.“Then let them come.” Alexander responded.“Is the bitch even worth it? The amount of lives that would be lost?”“Careful, she decides your life now and you wouldn’t want to make things any worse.” He paused, “If there can be anything considered as ‘worse’ in your case.”“You can’t do this… Please, I beg you, I can make you a deal.”“I hate rogues—they are barbaric, untrustworthy, and cunning creatures. I think I’ll pass on that one.”Alexander left me alone with the rogue.“Do you remember me now?” I asked him.“I don’t know who the fuck you are.” He lied through his teeth.“Pity. I’ll help you remember.”The room had been furnished with an

    The moment we were alone in our room, I placed my dagger at his throat.“I warned you. I told you if you tried playing games with what I told you, I was going to kill you.”I pushed the dagger against his throat, nicking him, and a thin line of blood rolled down his neck and disappeared beneath his clothing.“Then kill me, Kaida.”“Don’t tempt me.” I warned.“You cannot kill me, not even if you want to. You have me in this position because I choose to let it be.”In a flash, he had somehow managed to flip me around so I had my back against his chest, his hand wrapped around mine, and now the dagger was at my own throat. He was stronger than me; I hated times when I got reminded of that.He held me closer; I could feel him against my ass, strong and hard.“If I wanted you in this position—in other, more… interesting positions, I wouldn’t have a problem making it happen. You don’t threaten me; you might be my mate, but I am still your king.” He whispered in my ear before letting me go.

    KAIDA’S POVThe days went by in a blur, and I found myself preferring staying indoors.The knock on the door was expected; it should be Aric. I hadn’t seen or spoken to him in days. I walked to the door and pulled it open.I couldn’t hide the disappointment written on my face when I saw a Nightshade soldier standing by the door.“Can I help you?” I asked when he didn’t speak up.He had tried to cover up his little flaw, but I caught him staring. I wasn’t fully clothed, and of course he was unsettled by the scars—at least the portion he could see.“Luna.” He bows. The Alpha requests your presence in the meeting room.”“Wait.” I told him before I returned to my room, got dressed in my usual black pants and long-sleeved shirt, I followed him.“Is he alone?” I asked.“No… he has company.” The soldier replied.The moment I entered the meeting room, I caught a strangely familiar scent. No, this was not from Alexander.I looked around the room; some of the advisors were seated, and also Alph

    “I will be willing to answer every one of your questions.” He replied eagerly.“Good. I hear that your pack is also in alliance with the… rogues.”He looked up at me, clearly about to deny but thought better of it.“Yes. Alpha. But you know how much rogues hate packs and their laws. They would not let themselves be involved in any other pack matters.”“I didn’t ask because I need their alliance. Some years back, you told me a story of a boy who was found burnt to death—this boy was from your pack.”“Yes, he was. His father was a Captain. He did well in his service before he retired. That had been around the time his son was killed. The fire might not have been the cause of his death—that’s what the healers said.”“What was his name?”“I can’t remember—I think it was… Eli… Eliott.”“Eliott.” I repeated. It does make sense that the boy hadn’t told them his full name.“What interest does the Alpha have with this lowly deceased boy?”“His death interests me. Do you know this man?” I said,

    ALEXANDER’S POVMy stubborn little mate slept on the couch, I watched her. One would think being the daughter of an Alpha meant she was to be protected. She should have been protected.I also thought her story was a bit similar to one I had heard before.As dawn broke, I rose from my bed. Her eyes snapped open; she was very sensitive to sounds and also a light sleeper.“I’ll be back early today.” I informed her.“Whatever.” She muttered before rolling over; I had a fine view of her ass, which was considerably bigger than many girls I had been with or… noticed. I remembered exactly how she had looked naked. Scars marked her body: one across her chest, another extending to her hip, two on her back, and one tracing up her collarbone. I was furious seeing those scars; I didn’t think they were repulsive to look at, but I hated the fact that someone had put her through pain. I looked away, heading to the bathroom.My type—what exactly was my type?Once I had thought she wasn’t that, I thoug
