Chapter 66

Xavier's POV

I appreciated the timely intervention from Kraken. No better time than the present. I wanted him back but he could not have come back in a better way or at a better time.

"What took you so long man?" I did not know when the question escaped my mind. I meant it like, "thank you for saving me from this uncomfortable spot," but from the look of things, I guess it was interpreted differently, like maybe, "I've missed you."

I did miss Kraken, his friendly face was always a delight to see. It was like looking upon an impossible mix between the graceful aunt Rose and her elegant features and the giant and straightforward beta Hugh.

"It was a hard one man. Those rebel jackals are a handful. I'll tell you all about it later," he paused and made a teasing face that suggested that he thought he had overstayed your welcome. He had not.

I pulled the tall man by his arm, shaking him in a friendly manner. "I think I'll hear about that story now."

    Chapter 67Zara's POVYou know it's amazing how things seemed to switch up so easily with Alpha Damon. One minute I was leaning on him, holding back from letting the sounds out from behind my forcefully closed mouth. He hit me hard, again and again and by the time he was done, I was sure every part of my behind was red, like my cheeks, no, probably more than my blushing cheeks. He pushed me aside with my body exposed and my heart banged against the walls of my chest, hard. I wanted more. Pleasure replaced the pain that I should have felt. I let it out, but only slightly, a hopeless moan from the immense pleasure that engulfed my mind, my body. His next move was unknown to me, why he had pushed me aside, I did not know but I hoped it was momentarily. Every part of me was aroused. Blair was thrown into a frenzy with my efforts being the only thing keeping her from throwing herself at the dominant Alpha wolf sitting on the bed.I watched him from the floor, waiting for some sort of si

    Chapter 68Zara's POVRushing out of the room, the ringing sound in my ear persisted. A side of my cheek ached from the slap. Tears rolled down my eyes, shielding part of my vision but I was sure I saw Xavier standing somewhere around the kitchen, by the stairway.I hurried to the kitchen to get Alpha Damon's food, forcing myself to look away from Xavier. I did not want him to see him like I was and I did not want to keep Alpha Damon waiting any longer so as much as I would have loved to talk to him, the choice was not mine.I said nothing to the enraged Alpha as I left the food at his table. Alpha Damon's chambers was huge, the living area where he ate was faced away from the door that led out. While he ate, I used the opportunity to sneak out after wiping tears from my face with my bare hands. I knew sneaking out was risky, beyond risky, it could get me thrown in the dungeons but I did it anyways. I was a fool like that. I had only one mission in my head- to see Xavier, to talk to

    Chapter 69Xavier's POV"A drink?" Zara's expression softened with a smile. Her face lit but just barely and just enough to make me feel better. Seconds ago I was sure I had lost her to the cruel world of jealousy. Now that I think of it, why would she be jealous? Of Riana at that. I had no feelings at all for Riana and I was still not completely sure that Zara knew we were mated."Yes. You don't drink?" I watched as her eyebrows raised slyly in response to my question. So she did drink? Her silence was eating into me. "You've never drank?" I asked again, fairly certain that I was finally asking the right question. Zara looked no more than a teenager to me, a sheltered teenager. There was something about the innocent look in her eyes, the calm elegance to everything she did, even when she spoke that hinted at the kind of shielded childhood she had experienced.So it did not come as much of a shock when she responded with just the words that I was expecting to hear, "no, I have not

    Chapter 70Zara's POVI forced a look of determination as I stared into Xavier's vast blue eyes. I hoped he did not see through me, through my forced bravado.Alcohol? It was one of the things that I was banned from doing by my father and had never thought of trying it, even with the restriction. Restrictions foster curiosity and curiosity breeds want, a strange desire to do something just to know what it feels like.In my case, alcohol never bred any kind of curiosity within me. I was just fine not having any at all and I was sure I would not try it until Xavier asked.There was something about the way words twirled in his mouth and danced around his tongue, something about the way the light in his eyes flickered rapidly that made it impossible to say no to his requests. Even when his defeated words came, "I guess it does not have to be alcohol," a go ahead to refuse his offer, I went ahead to bring the thought back into the conversation. "I want alcohol," I said to him. Was I lyin

    Chapter 71Zara's POV"Who?" Alpha Damon got off of me as I asked."Alpha Alken would like to see you sir," the voice replied from behind the door. The scrunchy voice belonged to a guard, the man that stood by Alpha Damon's door.Alpha Damon reached for his clothes, his anger was evident in his movements. "What does that fat band want now?" He grumbled but left the room nonetheless.I should have been consumed by thoughts of what he had done to me, I could have been ashamed or excited and anticipatory but I was not. My mind was instead focused on one thing, one person- Xavier.I waited until I was sure that Alpha Damon was gone, far enough from the room before reaching for my clothes. I was set to leave after I was done in the bathroom. I suddenly felt unclean, maybe because Xavier's father had his hands all over me a moment ago.We agreed to meet where we first met, near the garden, under a tree in the compound. My heart raced as I walked towards the rendezvous spot. I was unsure tha

    Chapter 72Xavier's POVHer face was stuck in a frown for a while. The alcohol was too strong."I'm such an idiot. I should have known to get something less strong."She turned her face to me, half frowning and half feigning a smile. Her expression was funny when she said, "don't be stupid. I wanted this."I laughed because it was obvious that she was a first timer from the look on her face. It reminded me, finally, of the first time I tried alcohol. I was taken back. It was at a friend's house, a friend from school, Brad. I watched him gulp down a glass of his parent's expensive scotch like a drunk, all in one shot while retaining his composure. He even smiled that smile of satisfaction that alcoholics gave when they finally get their hands on a drink after months, maybe years of trying to quit the addiction.I was fooled into believing that it was not terrible, even when the glass was raised to my nose, the thick smell did not discourage me. The taste of the alcohol caught me by s

    Chapter 73Riana's POVThe Blood Moon mansion was somewhere I could get used to, I had to get used to. The hallways were huge, it was like walking in a museum. My bedroom, the one I was shown to by one of the omegas in the house, was just as huge, befitting of a princess.I retired to the bedroom after Xavier dismissed me. I loved him, I really did. It was the love at first sight kind of feeling at first. I was just a young girl when I met him. Eager to know love and to be loved but with time I understood that the concept entailed much more than I wanted. This understanding brought with it clarity and a deepened love for Xavier."Nobody must disturb me," I said to the man standing outside my door. He was dressed in a black suit with a brooch that had the colours of the Blood moon pack. I felt safe with him guarding the door. He was a huge man, taller than most. He had an unshakeable expression on his face that looked like he took his job, of guarding me, seriously. He did not even

My room was huge so I was sure that nobody on the outside would hear the constant moaning coming from the inside.It was the guard. It was always the tall ones. He groaned and moaned even louder than me. He called out a name that I did not know every now and then, "Lucia," but then again, I knew nothing about him.The intense attraction to him slowly faded. I looked at his body, his bulging biceps, his broad chest and the little hair sprinkled over it, while he was in me. "Lucia, Lucia," he mumbled under his breath but I heard him. It must have been the name of his lover. I did not know and I couldn't care less, why men cheat is their business. I only cared about the fact that I was starting to feel nothing.He plunged deeper and deeper into me, possibly expecting to see more of a reaction from me. Some were like that. They were observant and wanted their partners to feel just as much as the

    Chapter 88Zara's POVIt is a cold summer night like any other, except tonight was not just any night.The full moon was in complete control. I had long since lost any sense of identity. As I roamed the forest, crumpling plants with my bare feet and splashing puddles of water collected by the rain, I was one with nature.Like a monk sworn to a vow of poverty, nothing belonged to me. It felt like I disappeared and was boundless as the wind cut through my thick fur while I ran. We all did. The forest was swarming with wolves. I heard the sounds of many feet against the forest floors, like a stampede.All of my senses were elevated. I saw farther than I ever have and for things that I could not see, I heard and if not I perceived. I would feel almighty if I had a sense of ego. Nothing was hidden from me. This is what it means to be a werewolf.I needed this. I needed to feel this way. As much as it was not my body- it felt like I had almost completely vanished without a trail, yet I felt

    Chapter 87Zara's POVThe mind is malleable, like red, hot metal, its fluidity allows it to take any shape the welder decides. Standing in the middle of the Alpha's chambers, his lips on mine while his hands drew me close, I felt something. I can not describe that emotion. My mind is too hazy and I feel calling what I felt, like, would be hasty. I was after all under the influence of the full moon, like every other full moon.I did not like Alpha Damon. I hated him, tried to. I disliked his audacity, the ego that made him feel untouchable, the pride that made him believe he could do anything and get away with it, like beating up my father and stepbrother and kissing me without consent. He can't. He shouldn't be able to get away with it."I... I... I've always wanted to..." he paused. I think his eyes looked teary, I think I saw a glint of a person trapped within the big, bad vessel. I know what it is like to have another person trapped inside of you. This was nothing like the relatio

    Chapter 86Zara's POVNumb. That was all I felt. It was how I felt at the dinner and it was how I was feeling now, in Alpha Damon's chambers, awaiting his wrath. I can't pinpoint when exactly I started to feel this way.In cases of extreme pain, a person may psychologically "shut down," and dissociate from the pain they feel. This creates, even in the continual presence of the pain, an absence of pain. Numbness.How easy or difficult it is to get to this state is mostly dependent on one's tolerance to pain and varies based on individuals' threshold.I did not feel any physical pain, only a maddening nudge at myself. Now that I think of it, I may know when it all started. I tried to deny it but I watched in great dismay and annoyance as Riana Park entered the room and stole attention and compliments from every corner, even Xavier's. "You look very beautiful," he said and instantaneously put me off. I was not angry but a feeling that I could easily refer to as hatred filled me up jus

    Chapter 85Xavier's POVAlpha Damon was silent until he was not. It looked like he would just sit back and enjoy the show that was about to unfold before his eyes. Riana Park's raised hand was just seconds away from the innocent Zara's face.She did not move. Zara watched the commotion go on with an unusual calmness. She was composed even in the seconds leading to the slap that was set to hit her. Her composure said something about her- how experienced she was to situations like these, a drama veteran."That is enough out of you!" My father's voice soon became the loudest in the room. It filled the space around my ears. It must have penetrated even the walls outside the dining hall. This was a drama indeed and I was thankful that the protagonist of the show remained unharmed. My father's hand stopped, just in time, Riana's hand when it was in the air. Another second and it would have hit its mark. I don't know what I would have done. I did not want to imagine it. It may have been the

    Chapter 84Xavier's POVI almost held my jaw up with my hands when Zara appeared in the room. She was the second person to arrive so it was just both of us in the room. "You look ravishing," I remembered to say amidst the jumble of unholy thoughts in my mind. My mind drifted many times, thinking of the most impossible and tempting things. There was more to why I was attracted to Zara, more than just her looks but at this moment I really believed that her looks were enough to capture my attention.Her black dress was gorgeous with splits at the side that revealed her thighs. I hoped I did not stare too much. I did not want to come off as a pervert to her. "You don't look so bad yourself," she said and completely mesmerised me. Her soft voice was very soothing. It reached the depths of my soul, calling out to the hopeless lover that I am. "Thank you," I said, standing up and reaching for a seat beside me. She walked all the way around the table and took a seat opposite me. She didn't

    Chapter 83Zara's POVIt took a while before I flipped another page. The memories were all setting in, cementing in my mind again. It felt like my life was a book and I was reading through the chapters.Why was I doing this to myself? Why did I want to relive my pain? "Those who disregard the past are bound to repeat their mistakes." I knew that it was not for some grand reason like that. So why was I doing it? Another page.August 18I just looked at the date, before I could even glance through the page, a figure appeared in the corner of the room. It was a young woman dressed in the signature Bloodmoon uniform. She had, apparently, been standing for a while. I only noticed her when her footsteps became too audible to go unnoticed."The Alpha would like to see you," she started. I stared at her features, mesmerised by how much her chest bulged out in her uniform, how they looked like they would pop off if she moved around a little more. "Both of them," she added. Both of them? Her

    Chapter 82Zara's POVIt all came back to me. I fought to hold back the tears but I lost. My eyes were dripping until I could see no more. I closed the big bundle of pages in my hands. I needed a moment to recover, to take it all in.I stared at my wrists for the longest time, the parts where the scars were. It had been so long, so much time had passed. For some reason, an unusual memory popped into my head, it was the first time Alpha Damon looked at me."What is this? Who did this to you?" I recalled the rage in his voice as he posed those questions to me. He was holding up my hand and asking about the injuries I had given myself.I was not completely honest to him that day too. I told him that it had been my father and stepmother when really it was me. I tried to kill myself that day, nobody else. Like in the case of a gun for hire, the convict is the person that pulls the trigger. I flung the heavy book again to reveal more of my shrouded past. August 17Everything is back to no

    Chapter 81Alpha Damon's POV"You're always welcome whenever," I found myself saying. It seemed to be the only thing I had been doing recently- shaking hands, forcing smiles and welcoming people. Diplomacy is part of being an Alpha but it doesn't mean that you have to like it. I hated it. I hated every time Alpha Alken, the fat, old pig walked up to me with one of his warm smiles. I hated how gentle he appeared to be, a shame to an Alpha. I watched since Xavier was a child how Alpha Alken would spoil his daughter Riana, how he seemed to give her anything and everything she wanted. Such an attitude was unbecoming of an Alpha. A true Alpha is strong and his will should not be influenced by anybody at all.The truth is, I find myself asking if getting Xavier and Riana engaged was the right decision. I do not regret it. I refuse to. Everything I do is to strengthen the pack, to protect it and make it so the tragedy of the Bloodmoon pack never repeats itself. "You must show me to your t

Unless... my scent? As Alpha Damon barked questions at Xavier at his door earlier, I poured shampoo and the other unknown concoctions sprawled on the bathroom sink over myself.I coated my arms, legs and every other part of my body that was exposed in my pink little gown. There was no way Alpha Damon could have known or so I thought.I stood for a while, trying to avoid his piercing gaze and then I recalled how much he hated my silence, how badly he sought a response to his questions and even mere comments he made, like a child eager for attention from everybody around him."I... I don't know what you mean." I tried to come up with something better but my brain was frozen. I should be used to interrogations like these but I was not. "You don't? I could have sworn that you were in my son's room earli
