EMBERS OF REVENGE Chapter 1. Run, Hope, Run!
Hope's POVI ran through the bushes, not caring that I was barefooted. I was running for my life so every other thing didn't matter. This would have been so much easier if I had my wolf to help me. My body was aching, but I knew if I stopped even to breathe, that he might catch me again.It has been six years since I was last outside, since I was able to smell the fresh night air. I had been kidnapped and chained in a dungeon since I was 14 years old by this very person chasing after me. Now, I was 19 years old, two days away from my birthday.Because of how I had been kidnapped and chained in the dungeon, I never had the goddess' help in transformation. I needed the power of the full moon for my first transformation.I could hear his wolf pouncing toward me, I needed the goddess' help now more than ever. If anyone had told me six years ago that this man would be chasing me through the dark bushes, I would have laughed at them.But here I was. I was running from the man who had assass

Hope's PovShock and confusion were the two things I felt at the moment. If Orion had recognized me, why had he ordered that his guards to throw me into the dungeon? His voice was filled with so much venom and hatred. He had called me a traitor? What was happening?My chest beat with anguish and pain from being betrayed. But was it betrayal?“Orion, no. Tell them to stop!” I struggled weakly as the men dragged me down the steps. The sharp stones tore into my skin, adding to the pain my body was experiencing. My face stung from the spot where the guard had hit me for resisting."Traitor!" A guard spat on me as they flung me into the cell. It was dark and smelled like rotting meat down here. I wasn't the traitor, Lucian was!"Help!" I screamed with the little energy I had left as my mind pondered hard. What had happened over the years? I shouldn't be here! They didn't given me a chance to explain why I was here. Was it because I was in their territory? They didn't have problems with th
Last Updated : 2024-12-17EMBERS OF REVENGE CHAPTER 3: The chopping block
Hope's Pov "No! Please, no!" I screamed as I was thrown into another cell, different from the one I had been in. The guards laughed as I struggled weakly.I tried to run out but the guard’s hard fist connected with the side of my face sending me to the floor, whimpering in pain as my jaw stung. I felt fresh tears form around my eyes.I didn't want to die, not when Lucian was still alive. I didn't want him to win by taking everything from me. I wanted to make him suffer, but I wouldn't be able to do that if I was dead."Please," I called out weakly to no one as I lay on the cold moist floor. My eyes felt heavy from how much my body ached. Even my growling stomach couldn't compete with how tired I was.I let the darkness envelope me, hoping that it would all be a horrible dream and I was back in the car with my parents going for the Pack meeting.***"Wake up!" Someone banged the metal bars. It felt like I had just closed my eyes. They flashed a light on my face and I winced, but I was
Last Updated : 2024-12-17EMBERS OF REVENGE CHAPTER 4. Daughter of the traitor
Orion's PovI felt nothing but utter disgust when I saw Hope again. When the guards had dragged in a wounded girl, I was initially worried. It was a trait an Alpha was supposed to have, care and compassion for other wolves irrespective of their pack.But when I found out that that wounded girl was the daughter of the man that wanted my father dead? I felt consumed by hatred and disgust. She was bold and courageous, I would give her that. It would take guts to step your feet into a territory where you plotted a coup.My wolf, Adrian, tried to convince me otherwise. He provided excuses that she was just 12 years old and was probably unaware of the father's plot. But at 12 years, I was old enough to sit with my father at his meetings. I was old enough to make strategic plans on how to combat enemies.Hope knew, she was aware of her father's plot and she was using me as a pawn to get to my father. This angered me the more, the fact that she was using me. I genuinely cared for her, she was
Last Updated : 2024-12-17EMBERS OF REVENGE CHAPTER 5. My true mate
Hope's POVI stood stiffly, my feet bound to the floor like anchors had been wrapped around my ankles as my brain struggled to keep up with what was happening. Everything was fast-paced and it greatly boggled my mind.One minute I was hunched over the chopping block about to see what was after life, now I was standing between two guards who shared my confusion, as to what was happening.“What should we do now?” One guard asked, I turned toward the other guard, eager for some sort of command that will warp me into reality, but he shrugged disappointedly.My eyes danced toward the throne once more and locked with Orion's eyes. His eyes burned with the inferno of disdain and hate. I could feel it, even from such a distance, how much I repulsed him.His heated gaze sent a ripple of shivers down my spine. I averted my gaze toward the floor, unable to hold his gaze. How was this possible? How was he my mate?I would have believed the possibility of it years ago when we were younger if someo
Last Updated : 2024-12-17EMBERS OF REVENGE Chapter 6: Wolfsbane mixed with acid
Hope's POVI felt like my entire world stopped and my heart was violently ripped out of my chest. A burning sensation rippled through my skin as I stared at the mark, glistening on Kaia's neck, mocking me. My eyes hurt as the tears pooled to the side before casually strolling down my cheek.I wanted nothing more than to rip Kaia from his arms and pummel her till she stopped moving. I wanted to be in his arms, I wanted him to wrap his arms around me and hold me close.I didn't understand this strange feeling of jealousy because a few hours ago, I wouldn't have bothered if he wanted to be with someone else, but now, it felt like I couldn't live without him.I hadn't seen him in over six years, but it felt like he was all I could live for now. So seeing him reject me in the most cruel way possible made my body quiver in sadness.“Get out,” the cold voice of Orion pierced my heart. My head buzzed terribly and my vision became to blur as I found it almost impossible to stand upright.I fel

Hope's POVMy body ached badly by the time I woke up: my ribs hurt, probably from when I had fallen, and my back hurt as well. What was worse was the headache that threatened to split my head in unequal halves. I struggled to stand from the bed…A bed? I was on a bed? I darted around quickly as I took in my surrounding. The walls were painted, but the edges of the paint peeled off revealing the plastered walls underneath. There were ugly wet stains on the “what-was-once” white ceiling above.“Where am I?” I asked myself as I readjusted myself on the bed, trying not to move too quickly in fear that my head would fall off. My stomach rumbled, my core tightening as hunger ravaged my entire frame, I felt like I hadn't eaten in days.I gently stood up, placing my feet on the floor and the sharp edge dug into my soles. I winced in pain as my eyes adjusted to the proper condition of the room, if I could call it a room. It looked like it hadn't been lived in for years and had been carelessly

Hope's POV“Babe, I think she's ignoring you,” she whined again. I heard the chair scrape along the floor and his footsteps. My heart raced in my chest but I sat still, waiting.I felt his thick fingers wrap along my braids and yank it backward, slamming my head into the metal crown of the chair. I winced in pain as he tugged on my hair, afraid that my scalp would come out.“Did you hear what I fucking said!?” He shouted into my ear and my hands rushed to grab his hand that was yanking my hair violently. I gritted my teeth, determined not to give an answer, but my head burned from the places my hair roots were.I heard another scrape of the chair and I knew Kaia had gotten up, she walked around the table and my eyes followed her quick movements. She walked close to me and then…smack.The hall echoed with the sound of her hand connecting with my face: my cheek burned, but my eyes burned more with the reserved tears I didn't want to give them the comfort of seeing me shed.She tucked he

EMBERS OF REVENGE Chapter 28 Jealousy?
Hope's POVI stared at his image in the mirror, my brain feeling like a blank canvas and my body was an empty husk. I turned toward the door, glancing at every corner of the room: there was no one else in the room with us. I swallowed hard and turned off the tap.“The men's bathroom is the other way,” I spoke softly without looking up. I didn't trust myself to hold eye contact with him, especially when that proud smirk was on his face.“I'm not lost, Hope,” he said. I didn't like how confident he sounded, it unnerved me for some reason. The way he said my name like he had known me forever.I quickly dried my hands and pushed myself away from the sink. I hit his body and I froze, he had moved closer to me…too close for comfort. He bent and I felt the tip of his nose grazing my skin, my entire body went rigid, like I had swallowed bags of concrete.“You smell good,” his hot breath fanned my entire neck. What was this? What was I doing? Orion was waiting for me and I was carrying his chi
EMBERS OF REVENGE Chapter 27: Alpha Lucian
Hope's POV“Emberfang?” I stammered, my voice barely above a whisper. A chill ran down my spine, seizing my entire body in an icy grip. No. This had to be a joke. Was Lucian toying with me? My breath came in short, shaky bursts as I slowly unwrapped my arms from Orion, dread clawing at my chest. My lips trembled, fear settling deep in my bones at the thought of returning to that hellhole—the place that had broken me piece by piece, the dungeon where I had wasted away for years. I would rather die than go back.“Yes…” the man drawled, his voice dripping with something unreadable.“Is your mate alright?” the so-called Alpha asked, his eyes flickering toward me. Before I could react, Orion’s hand shot out, gripping mine in a bruising hold. I winced, startled by the sudden pressure, my pulse hammering against my skin. My gaze darted between Orion and Draven, my chest rising and falling in quick, panicked bursts. I didn’t want to be here.“She’s not my mate,” Orion muttered in disgust.T
EMBERS OF REVENGE Chapter 26 Alpha Draven of Emberfang
Orion’s POV“Babe, are you sure you can’t join me?” My voice was barely above a whisper as my fingers traced gentle circles on Kaia’s stomach. Her body tensed, her breath hitching before she let out a small, pained groan.She curled into herself, drawing her knees toward her chest as if the movement would somehow shield her from the pain wracking her body. My heart clenched at the sight. I hated seeing her like this. Hated how powerless it made me feel. No matter how strong I was, no matter how many battles I’d won, I couldn’t fight this for her.“I’m sorry, my love,” she murmured, her voice raspy. She dragged a trembling hand to her mouth, barely stifling a violent cough. “I know I promised to be there, but I just… I can’t.”I exhaled through my nose, swallowing the frustration that threatened to rise. It wasn’t her fault. It never was.“Hey, it’s okay.” I reached for the glass of water on the side table and brought it to her lips. “Here, drink.”She took slow, measured sips before w
EMBERS OF REVENGE Chapter 25: A chance
Hope’s POV“What the fuck do you mean she’s pregnant? How is that possible?”Kaia’s scream cut through the room the moment the door slammed shut. The sound rattled in my skull, but I could barely process it. My body swayed, unsteady, as I stepped forward. My eyes burned, blurred with tears—unless that was the blade the Priestess had turned to water, slicing through me in ways I couldn’t comprehend.Each step forward sent a sharp chill through my skin, a reminder of how drained I was. Physically. Mentally. A cruel laugh bubbled up in my throat, bitter and jagged. I was supposed to be dead by now. I had been ready—ready for that quiet, eternal escape. But instead, I was here. Alive. And now… I was pregnant?A sickness churned in my stomach, and suddenly, the nausea I’d been feeling made sense. The strange sensitivity, the exhaustion. But how? Why?“The Alpha did sleep with her, didn’t he?” The Priestess's voice was calm, but her eyes flickered between Orion and me, searching for somethi
EMBERS OF REVENGE Chapter 24 Two weeks
Orion's POV When I woke up, everything felt foggy to me. My head was spinning and there was a steady throb at the back of my skull. Every time I moved, it felt like my brain was being scrambled and juggled around by some circus freak.I groaned as I moved to stretch, that's when my hand hit a body. I froze when I did and immediately concluded that it was a figment of my imagination. There was no way there was any other person in this bed.I remembered clearly that Kaia had left, she had stormed out of the room in anger, or had I imagined it? I turned slowly toward the ruffled sheets and I saw her face, Hope's face. I shrieked and gasped, my breath clogging in my throat.No, this can't be happening. She isn't really real, no, no. I closed my eyes, my heart pounding faster than my thoughts, maybe if I just closed and opened, I wouldn't see her again.I would see only the ruffled sheets from me sleeping peacefully last night caused by a reckless sleep and nothing else. My eyes slowly pa
EMBERS OF REVENGE Chapter 22: The guillotine’s blade
Hope’s POVSMACK!I felt the slap jolt me from my sleep. My face burned intensely and the force caused my head to ache a bit. I sat upright, clutching the spot that stung so badly. Everything was blurry for a few seconds as I looked around for what had caused it.“How dare you!?” the shrill voice of Kaia pierced my eardrums when my eyes slowly focused on the room. I was on a bed, a strangely soft bed and the sheets were wrapped around my chest. But these sheets weren’t the torn ones I had used to cover myself when I was fleeing for my life, these were white and smelled neat.My scalp ached when I felt a violent tug and then I crashed to the floor scraping my elbow on the carpet. I groaned in pain, the tiredness from the previous events slowly overpowering my body. I didn’t understand nor remember where I was and I wasn’t even given time to remember before I felt another hard slap to the other side of my face.“You think you can drug my man and sleep with him, you bitch!?”Kaia wrapped
EMBERS OF REVENGE chapte 21: Please, fuck me.
Hope's POV The kiss was electrifying, it felt like my entire brain had turned off and the signals were radiating through my entire body. My eyes remained open like they were taped to my skull, from shock or fear. I didn't know.His lips felt soft, too soft for the kind of man he was. I don't know what I was expecting because I had never thought about the texture of his lips, but whatever it was, I didn't think it felt like clouds or pillows.He pushed his lips deeper on my lips and my eyes fluttered and finally closed. A warm feeling scurried across my belly as I felt his finger trickle along the edges of my body.I felt his warm tongue rub along the bottom of my lips, asking for permission and my body responded like it was auto. I opened my mouth and his thick tongue invaded my orifice. I couldn't stop the moan that escaped from my mouth.His fingers caressed my waist till they cupped my lower back. He pulled me to himself and my hands jutted out due to the sudden movement and lande
EMBERS OF REVENGE Chapter 21
Hope's POVI stifled my breath as the door fell to rubbles, and the wood crunched under the heavy feet of whoever was at the door. I closed my eyes tightly and pressed my body against the wall, trying to flatten it, almost merging with the wall.I felt if I sucked in my stomach, my chest would contract and I would be smaller for some reason. The only thing I couldn't stop was the pounding in my heart, I was afraid that the loud thumps would give off where I was hiding.The room became oddly quiet, I couldn't even hear a shivering of any other breath apart from mine. I risked it, I decided to slowly part my eyes to see if I were truly alone. My eyes landed on bright eyes staring back at me.I shrieked and shoved myself further into the tight space. I was done for, there was no way he wouldn't talk. My tear duct must have felt overworked by now because of how much I had tried. I felt that familiar prickle as the tears started to form.“You owe me, Hope.”I immediately recognized that vo
EMBERS OF REVENGE Chapter 20: Make love to me
Orion's POV“Sir, I don't think she's here, but I don't know how far she must have run…”Their voices faded into the background as I glided past them into the room. I felt like I was being carried by the wind, as light as a feather but a heart heavier than tons of bricks. I didn't even know how to feel…what to feel.Grief? Yes, I felt an enormous amount of grief, I had just lost my father to the cruel hands of death. No, it was Hope. She killed my father because she wanted to finish the evil plans she and her dad had hatched all those years ago.How had I been so blind? So stupid to think for a second that there was no way she could do it? I thought that she was some spineless coward, some apple that fell far from the tree and rolled downhill. I knew she had that traitor's blood running in her veins but I never believed that she would do it.I misjudged her…never again. She wouldn't ever have the chance if we caught her.Now, anger? Yes, I was fucking angry! Angry that he was ripped f
