Chapter 95

Riana's POV

I held them back as much as I could but the tears had broken past my barriers. Like water breaking past a dam, it all came at once. It hurt.

My vision was blurred with all the salty liquid in it. The tears continually rolled down my cheeks but they did not stop forming in my eyes. How could they? I was betrayed by someone I loved.

The feeling of emptiness is a painful one. It was not just emptiness I felt. Xavier promised me. We are supposed to be together. We are meant to be together.

I found it hard to trace the path to my room while crying. I hate it here. I hate her. I hate Zara Smith.

I flung the door open to find my father sitting on my bed. He immediately rose at the sight of my teary face. He was just the person that I needed to see.

"What's wrong dear?" He asked but I fell into his arms before I could answer. What was wrong? How do I start? As hard as it was to say, I did it eventually. I told him everything, starting with the first time I saw Zara Smit

    Chapter 96Zara's POVI don't know what I was thinking when I left Alpha Damon's chambers. Maybe I was not thinking at all. My feet moved on their own and like a girl possessed I walked past the guards at the door without a word.They did not say anything. They made no attempt to stop me. Alpha Damon had not instructed them to lock me up yet. He must have been too angry, too hurt to speak as he rushed out of the room. Screw him. After all he had done.I contemplated knocking as I stood in the empty passageway, right in front of Xavier's room. I wonder now if I should have taken a proper look around the mansion one last time.Alpha Damon's words made me wonder. "The next time you will get to stand under the sun will be the day that I marry you. You belong tome, only me!" I don't think I would be allowed out even after the wedding.A prisoner to Alpha Damon for life. Maybe I preferred the dungeons to this. Okay, I don't.I took in a deep breathe at the door. Nothing.

    Chapter 97Zara's POVTime existed no more. Seconds, maybe hours, had gone by since I came to Xavier's room. I did not care. Everything was perfect.Xavier lay next to me, quiet and motionless for a while. His fingers had been stroking the side of my cheek very softly and slowly."I love you," he whispered in my ear. Our bodies were mingled under his sheets, just like I had imagined him with Riana.His words sent shivers down my spine. I felt as every syllable travelled from my ear to the rest of my body. Love? Too soon? I barely knew Xavier Elord. There was an undeniable connection between us but that was it. It did not change the fact that I met him a few weeks ago. I did not say it back. Awkwardness and silence lingered in the air, until, like a rotten smell, it dissipated.I looked at him to notice that he was not waiting for a reply, he was not even looking at me. He appeared to be sleeping. His face is peaceful and begging to be left alone."I have a plan to get us out of all t

Unconsciously, my heartbeat quickens and my body is reminded of fear. My father is rushing towards me with his hands raised, it strikes me. I can never escape that fear.Alpha Damon is back in the room. He does not look happy. I did not expect him to be. I am just happy that I made it back to the room before he got back.More movement. He is searching for something, rummaging endlessly through his belongings. I dare not to ask, I dare not disturb his search so I sat quiet, frozen. My mind drifted to earlier in the day, with Xavier.He whispered his plan to me, as though we were not alone and someone could sneak up behind us as he spoke. I liked the feel of his breath against my ear."That's it?" I asked, unsatisfied by what he had told me. "What next? We can't possibly..."He raised his finger to my lips and stopped me from talking. "I'll tell you whe

    Chapter 100Zara's POV"Where is it?" Loud footsteps came before the thunderous voice announced itself in the room and the tall, dark man appeared before me. A sense of danger immediately engulfed me. His deep blue eyes were marked with a hint of boiling red rage."Where have you hidden it?" He repeated himself, a rarity for the alpha of the Bloodmoon pack. His rage was apparent but something lay beneath it, masked and well hidden by the anger but I spotted it. It was one thing I knew too well, fear.Underneath the guise of anger was an intensifying fear. Alpha Damon was afraid. I was afraid. This foreign feeling would no doubt bring with it unpredictable actions. I had never seen Alpha Damon like this, I did not know what to expect, not like I did all the other times he burst in with rage but something was different about him this time, more dangerous."You better tell me where you have kept it," he said and started walking closer towards me.

I was too afraid to ask who it was so instead I crouched down on the floor and waited for the intruder to tire himself out and leave. I hoped he would leave.The knocking continued and after a minute or two I knew that he would not go away. Could it be that Alpha Damon was back to inflict more pain or he was going to finish me off properly this time?Each time the handle of the door moved, I felt my heart almost leave my chest. Like I was naked, I felt exposed. The only thing that separated me from the intruder was a door, a relatively small, wooden bathroom door."Open up Zara. It's me," the voice behind the door announced. I know that soothing low pitched voice. I'd recognise it anywhere. Its lustre was distinguishable even in the midst of confusion.

    Chapter 1 ZARA'S POV "Whoosh!!" The sudden sound of cold water rushing all over my body. My mouth involuntarily gaped open to regulate my hyperventilation as I opened my eyes to see my whole body and bed covered in water. In a bid to understand what just happened, I searched around for an explanation, only to see Miriam, my stepmother with an empty bucket dripping water, her hands on her waist and her eyes full of hateful mischief. "M... Mum-" "If it wasn't that you were wet right now and I don't want to stain my palm with the dirt on your skin, I would've given you a dirty slap. How many times have I warned you never to call me your mother anymore? Do I look like a dead witch to you?!", She threw harsh words at my face, but I was trying not to shiver as the early morning attacked my skin. "I... I'm sorry, Miss Miriam", I muttered as I avoided her face. "Were you born into this world to be some sleeping beauty? Do you want to sleep your life away? Don't you have chores that y

    Chapter 94Zara's POVA week has passed since Alpha Damon made love to me. That night with him was unlike any other experience. His gentleness incited a feeling within me. I liked it.The mansion has been calm since. I have not seen Xavier since nor have I seen Alpha Alken and his terrible daughter, Riana Park. There has been an unusual silence within the walls of the Blood Moon pack house.I like the silence but it also scares me. The moment before a storm is the quietest. Alpha Damon has been quiet. He is barely around but when he is, he seems different, kinder.The truth is, I have been happy. I almost like it here. In a very odd sense, I've felt, even if just a glimpse of it, what being loved could feel like. The oddity of everything is that the love I have received is from both father and son, mostly father in recent times.It was from the same man who locked me up in a dungeon and left me to die for two days, the one who hunted me down and dragged me back to my prison at a very
