I couldn't believe what I had just done. No. What I allowed him to do. I couldn't believe the fact that I wanted more, but I wouldn't let him know that.

"Could you untie me now?"

"No"

"What?"

"No"

"I heard that. Why ‘no’?"

"I think I like you naked and tied to the bed. It's a turn-on," he said, and my eyes attempted to travel down there again, but I caught myself.

Alpha Thane was so many things, but the control he could have over a person was one of his most intimidating skill.

He kissed my collarbone, and his fangs grazed my neck. Was he planning to mark me?. I panicked, struggling against the hold.

"You are a very strange being, Riley Kaidon. A moment ago, I could swear you enjoyed it all, but now you seem afraid and desperate to be free. Why?"

"You won't mark me." I said, it wasn’t a question.

This was another part of the deal I hadn't talked about, another part that wasn't included in the contract, and I doubt that had been due to the fact that he 'forgot'.

    I lay on the bed, unable to sleep. How could I sleep when Thane was beside me? I couldn't make myself so vulnerable. Even if I knew if he did try to do anything crazy, I didn't have the power to stop him.I turned over to stare at him. No, he didn't look peaceful in sleep; he looked just as dangerous as he would if awake. He seemed tense, and I knew a little movement would be all that was needed to wake him, but...Was he really sleeping?I stretched, reaching out for him. I waved my hand over his eyes, just to make sure he was actually sleeping. He didn't blink, but I couldn't help the nerves I felt. I quickly withdrew my hands."You should be sleeping," a voice said, and it startled the hell out of me. I had been about to roll off the bed. It was Thane—of course he hadn't been asleep."What was that for?""I'm not the one behaving all creepy," he responded, a smirk forming on his lips. "You should go to sleep.""I can't""Why?""Isn't it obvious? I can't sleep with you beside me.""

    I swallowed. No underwear had been picked out by him, and a part of me knew it was no mistake; he wanted me bare beneath this dress. I let the robe fall to the floor; his intense gaze remained on me, but he made no move. I quickly put on the gown. It was pretty—pretty wasn't the word; sexy was the right word, and it was the most revealing thing I had ever worn my whole life. I might as well walk around naked. The silk dress was strapless, revealing a whole lot of cleavages, and it had a deep slit by the side, exposing my thighs. "I can't wear this." "It is beautiful." "Isn't it too revealing? What kind of impression would I make on your parents, wearing this?" "One they would never forget. You are a true beauty, I would love to show you off to the world." "I am not a trophy, and I am also 'not' wearing this Thane." His eyes settled on me, but before he could speak, there was a distraction. "Where is my daughter? Take me to her this instant!" A voice I recognized called out; h

    I wished I could take back the words I had said; it had only been a slip. I had been so angry at her; couldn't she see the sacrifice I was making? Couldn't she see that this was our only chance at being free?It would only be six months, and then it would be all over, but she didn't know that."I'm sorry," she says. "You are right; I don't know what I was thinking. I think I should leave now and go settle in my new space," she says, turning away and heading for the door."Mom, no, I didn't mean it. I'm sorry""No. No you're not, but when he breaks you, don't come running to me; I might not be able to help you.".With that, she walks away, and I couldn't help the shock I felt. My mother was loving and kind; when did she become so cold?The answer to that question had everything to do with the nightshade pack, with Thane, and whatever secret my mother held to herself.Yet I had this strange feeling like I was losing the only person who truly cared for me. The emptiness in her eyes when

    "This was once called the Alpha's chamber, but Thane never did like the place," Axel informed me, but I couldn't make up a response, not when the nerves were eating me up. I was meeting his 'parents', the Alpha King and Queen. I walked in, but Axel didn't follow. The first person I noticed was Thane; he leaned against the wall looking very imposing. They seemed to have been in the middle of a conversation, which quickly ended the moment I arrived. Thane's eyes assessed me, and I could see the disapproval in his eyes—those eyes that seemed to darken the moment he realized I wasn't in the blue dress he picked out. I hadn't imagined it; his eyes did change colour according to his mood. I gave a low bow, my eyes down. I had seen Ryker's mother do this before. "Rise," the deep, cold voice called out, and I finally dared to stare into the eyes of Alpha Slade Blackwood of the New Blood Pack. Now I knew where Thane got those eyes from, though his father's were a different shade. Alpha Sla

    I felt Freya’s grip on my arm the moment we were out of sight.“Come with me,” she says, her voice was raspy and barely audible, almost like she spent so much of her days in silence; she had forgotten how to speak right. I let her lead me into an empty room, and she locked the door.My heart pounded. Should I be afraid of her? There was something about her that was indeed different.“Why are we here?” I questioned“I want to talk to you,” she said, her voice a little bolder now. “There are a few things you need to know about being the Alpha’s mate." She said, and I nodded, ready to do anything to be in her good books. Her mate didn’t seem to like me, maybe things could change if I gave her the right impression.She lifted her veil and let it fall over her hair. I held in a gasp. Her face was scarred; that was why she was in a veil, why she had left no skin exposed; she was hiding the scars. I should have suspected this when I saw her standing behind Alpha Slade, her head down, but of c

    I followed after him, a sense of dread settling in the pit of my stomach. He led me back into our room and shut the door. I inhaled. “Things went rough with your mother, right?” He asked, this question I did not expect. “She doesn’t like you very much.” “That’s understandable,” he says. “You know, you did well today—with my father, I mean.” “I did?” “Yes. Though I didn’t miss the fact that you had again disobeyed me, You took off the clothes—was it because of your mother?” “Yes... No. I couldn’t walk around looking like a whore.” He walked closer, and it took everything in me to stand still. His fingers traced the fabric of the brown gown I had chosen—without asking for permission, of course. “You liked being well covered?” He asked “Yes” “Just like my mother, Freya?” I think my heart skipped a bit right there. I remembered the scars all over her body, they had been the reason she left no skin uncovered. "How could you allow that to happen to her?"

    "There had been a reason I wanted you in that dress, Riley; let's say I wanted my father 'infuriated'." "That wouldn't be a good thing since I was hoping to leave a good impression" "You don't understand; my father has this strange way of thinking, one I don't share with him; he believes fear is another means of power." "And you don't think so?" I asked, knowing full well that Alpha Thane was feared amongst all regions. Though he had other enviable and equally intimidating achievements capable of giving him same influence, many still ‘feared’ him. "Is different when you enforce such methods on family too. That's what he made my mother understand, he wanted her to fear him, tremble in his presence and now she had lost her own voice, he keeps her wrapped up like some mummy, I don't like that, so letting you wear something so provocative was challenging him in some way" "I thought... I.. I'm sorry" "Yet, Riley, I am glad you fought me for what you wanted." "I thought that wa

    "What books did you pick?" Axel asked as we headed back to my room."Just some history books," I lied."You are into those?""There wasn't much to select from," I lied again."True," he agreed. I was glad we moved on from that topic quickly. "A maid would be here soon with some healthy food. When had been the last time you ate?""A few days ago.""Days?""I am used to it." I paused, deciding if I should tell him. "I was born an omega; I am used to staying days without food.""Omegas are to be fed too, just like every other.""Not in the Windborne Pack""It would be different here," Axel promised..A few minutes later, there was a soft knock on the door. It was 'the' maid, and she came in with a tray in her hands.She gave a deep bow, placing the tray on the table before quickly exiting the room."Whatever is in there smells really nice.""It's meat balls and mashed potatoes," he said."That seems a bit much, don't you think?""You've not eaten in days; you need as much as you can tak

    Trian led me away from the old creepy woman. “I did tell you that fortune tellers are liars.”“But she seemed to know a lot about me.”"From your skin tone, anyone could tell you aren’t an Aureonna by birth. The majority of the population here comes from all over the world, bound by the 'Purifying Ritual.' She’s a good guesser, but there’s nothing special about that, and you don’t have to worry about anything she says. She is a hungry woman, looking for her daily bread."“She would be rich with all those gold coins—where did you get them?”“I was an orphan, but not a poor one. I found my way around things and also built myself some good fortune.”“Then why are you here?”“Money is not the answer to everything. I am here because I want to be, not because I need the money.”“Where are we going?” I asked, realizing they were fewer people the further we went."Wait and see," he said with a smile that made my stomach flutter. We stopped before a lake.“I never knew there was a Lake in this

    I looked around, taking in the crowd—more people than I had ever seen. A smile spread across my lips, the incident with the soldiers at the exit already long forgotten.Trian took my hands again; his were huge and rough—just as I imagined a warrior's hands to be. He led me into the thick of Aureonna’s city; people stared—especially women, but the stares weren’t directed at me, but at Trian."What is that?" I asked, pointing to a group of people gathered nearby. They seemed to be laughing at something."It's a play, a drama.""I want to see it."“Of course.”We weaved through the crowd of excited people, until we reached the front row.A woman with a silver wig sat on a make-shift throne; her skin seemed to have been painted white. The other woman by her side had a blonde wig on. It took me a moment to realize this was a drama about me—the woman in the silver wig was meant to be me, while the one in the blonde wig was portraying Empress Julia."Soon, you will lead us to victory.

    About five minutes passed, and there was still no sign of her.“Empress!” I called out. “Empress…”Just then, she broke through the surface. Her face looked different—youthful. She had entered the pool looking to be in her forties, but when she emerged, she appeared to be in her late twenties.“Empress, you look…”“Beautiful, magnificent… I know.”“How?”“The water, many believe the god of light once bathed in these waters; it’s called the Lake of Youth—It was once bigger than this, but, well, this is all that remains of it.”She put on her clothes..“It was like time had reversed, and she was given her youth again.” I said to Trian when we were back in my room.“It seems to me that you would like to take a dip in the Lake of Youth one day.”“Of course, not… the Empress would never let me.”“You fear the Empress like she is a god.”“She is a powerful woman.”“I agree, not many men alive could build a community as big as this one. But have you ever thought about how exciting it would

    ALIYA’S POVTrian rarely speaks.I wish he did; he stood there, day and night, but never uttered a word. He seemed to be lost in his own thoughts. The last time we spoke, he said he was from the North, which explained his pale skin; the Aureonnas had darker shades.“What is life in the North like?” I asked him.“Cold.” Was his only response. It was clear he didn’t want to speak to me.I picked up a book and began reading. I hadn’t even heard him move, but he was right before me.“You move very quietly.”“Do I?”“Yes.”“Every soldier should possess that skill, don’t you think?”“You are right.” I said, not comfortable with a man being this close. He sat beside me on the bed, and it took everything in me to sit still.“The North is more than just a cold place. As I told you before, there are humans, a lot of them, but there are also… werewolves. In the North, the werewolves still live in medieval times, doing things the old-fashioned way—just like the Aureonnas, your people, still do. T

    It was a dream. That much I could tell.I watched a younger version of myself lying on the bed, sickly thin. Her skin was pale as snow, and her breaths came in labored gasps. Beside her was my father, Alpha Trent, in his prime. He was handsome as I always knew he was, but he had a pained look on his face as he watched me; I was dying, and I could see that.“Nothing can be done for her—we’ve done all we could, but the sickness… we don’t understand it; we’ve never seen a thing like it.” a female healer said to him.“She can’t die.” My father says, “She’s all I have, and she cannot die. There has to be a way.”The healer walked closer to him. “There might be another option—the healer's lilies. But I would never recommend it; if it doesn’t work… she would die.”“Do it,” my father says without even a single hesitation.“Alpha, are you sure?”“Yes. She would die anyway; do it.”“The flowers are up the Everveil mountains—my grandmother told me about them. I know how to pluck them and keep th

    Alexander was in a fresh pair of pants, though I didn’t think he minded being naked.“You should join me for a drink, Kaida.” he offered.I did need a drink. I walked to him, trying to hide the discomfort I felt between my legs. I had asked for it, and I was given just that. It was fun; it was exciting, but now, all I could feel was pain. I had no regrets, though; I would do it all over again if time was taken back.Alexander helped me to the stool beside him.I accepted the glass filled with a light brown liquid. I didn’t mind asking what it was; I drank it all. He stared at me. “I’m a very bad influence on you.” He said.“You are.” I agreed, adjusting on the seat.“You are sore and in pain.”“I’m not.”“You don’t have to lie; I can see that. Perhaps I went too hard.”“I asked for it.”“You weren’t ready. I shouldn’t have listened to you.”“I was. I was ready.” I said and his eyes fixed on me. “I… I wanted to give you everything ‘they’ would give, so you won’t have a reason to want t

    Alexander wasn’t in his office; neither was he in the meeting room.I walked into Phil’s—one of the council members and the eldest among them all."Luna," he called, bowing.“Phil. I wonder if you have an idea where the Alpha is now.”“He is in the bar, Luna— I don’t advise you go to him now.“Why?” I asked.“He is a bit… occupied.”“Point me in the direction to the bar and I’ll be on my way.”.If he was having sex with a whore, I would feel it.I stopped before the 'bar.' The only thing blocking my view of the room was a curtain made of beads. I took a deep breath and walked in.The place reeked of alcohol as expected. I spotted Alexander; he had a bottle in his hand, and sitting beside him was Austin, another council member.Three naked women danced on poles; the one in the middle had her eyes trained on Alexander. The strange feeling I had felt earlier in the Gray Moon Pack resurfaced. Jealousy. I didn’t like the fact that Alexander watched them, though he made no move towards her

    In a few days, the wolfsbane was completely out of my system, I could finally walk without any support. So I decided to pay Aric a visit. I knocked on the door to his apartment, and as if he had been waiting right there, he opened it immediately and pulled me into a hug.“I wanted to visit you and see how you were doing, but Alexander is a bit more possessive of you now.”“It’s alright; I’m fine now.”Finally, he pulled away and shut the door behind him. “You would have died—I should have gone with you.”“But I didn’t. All thanks to Alexander.”“I might not like the Alpha very much, but I will always be grateful to him for this.”"He saved my life, and that’s why I’m here. I want to know what happened to the Gray Moon Pack and how I was able to make it here alive."I don’t know all the details, but I heard that every pack member at the Wedding Feast was burned alive—none survived. What’s strange is that the fire didn’t spread. It never went past the hall; it just... quenched."“And wh

    I rolled over on the bed—wait. Bed?My eyes snapped open.“Alexander?” I called, but there was no one in the room. Just then, the door creaked open, and a familiar scent filled the air. His scent. “Alexander!” I called again, and finally, he appeared before me.“I went to get you some food.” He said a smile—not a smirk, a smile on his face. I stared down at his hands; he held a tray of food. He was in a black t-shirt and jeans—I had never seen him in casual clothes before, and… damn, was he hot. “Are you… are you okay?” he asked.“Yes, I am.”I pulled off the covers and rose to my feet. A sudden dizziness overcame me, and I lost my balance. Before I could fall, Alexander caught me. The tray still remained in his other hand.“You should rest some more and eat too.” He said, leading me back to the bed. I accepted the tray of food. “I am glad you are awake; the past two days were not very exciting. I spent the last forty-eight hours worrying myself to near death."I had been asleep for t
