Chapter Six

(Damien’s POV)

The penthouse was silent except for the distant hum of the city below. Floor-to-ceiling windows framed the night skyline, the twinkling lights stretching endlessly, but Serena wasn’t looking at them. She sat stiffly in the oversized leather chair, her arms wrapped around those sexy breasts I badly wanted to feel and stretch like a protective shield. Even in the dim lighting, I could see the way her fingers dug into her arms, her breathing shallow, her shoulders tense. She was scared, even my wolf could feel it—but too damn stubborn to admit it.

Her eyes darted around the room as her expression shifted between confusion and disbelief. I could practically hear the questions running through her head, and sure enough, her voice broke through the heavy silence, laced with something between anger and desperation.

“Why?” she whispered, her voice hoarse, as if she hadn’t spoken in hours. “Why are you doing this? And how the hell are you connected to my family

    Chapter Seven Serena’s POV* I clenched my fists hard, hating the fact that he was right. Because a mere looking at him, what he was was far worse that the rumours I've heard and what has circulated about him. But there's no world worse than being caged in my father's house, a home where my sisters made it a routine to ruin my life and where my stepmother makes a leach out of me. “And why the hell is that? Because you’re a big bad Alpha Mafia?” I shot back, my anger barely contained. “Or because you think your money can buy anyone, even me?” Damien exhaled slowly, his eyes darkening. “No, because as long as you’re alive, you’re a risk to me. No one can know that we share a connection , or blood. If they do, I lose everything and your life would be in danger…and of course everyone has a Price.” His voice was calm, but there was an underlying threat in it. I flinched. The weight of his words pressed down on me. I wasn’t just some random girl caught in his web—I was a danger to h

    Chapter Eight. Serena’s POV The Pack I had always seen on the news looking so grand, so powerful like a fortress of strength was nothing like the nightmare before me now. My rib cage was in pains at the mare sight of what was going on before me. The air was thick with gunpowder, choking my lungs as I inhaled the chaos. The sky which were littered with stars, was now a swirling mess of black smoke and red flames licking at the edges of the Pack houses. Screams echoed in the distance, blending with the relentless gunfire that rattled through the air. The scent of burning wood mixed with the sickly metallic tang of blood made me bite my tongue hard but I didn't feel pain. What on earth have I gotten myself into? But then…. A loud crack shattered the windshield. I let out a scream as the glass exploded into a million sharp pieces and pierced My skin, My arms flew up instinctively, but before I could react, a large, clawed hand shot through the broken window and yanked me out of

    Chapter Nine Damien’s POV Her scream startled me.I just wanted to smash his brain to pieces but I was a fool for thinking that she would take that lightly seeing how shaken she was.“You can breathe now Princess, I won't do it.” My jaw twitched as I saw the Numskull that caused this while scenario.I knew exactly where the attack had come from. Vincent Kane, The bastard was bold and very reckless,to think that I expected him to try something eventually, but this? Attacking my Pack? Dragging my mate into it before she even had a chance to set foot in my world properly? That was a whole new level of stupidity. Not that I gave a damn about her. Serena was only my redemption to the throne. A means to an end. The one thing keeping me from losing my claim over Syndicate Fangs. And yet… Something inside me twisted at the thought of her seeing this side of me or that wasted pig fucking her through his eyes. My wolf growled low in my head, pacing with irritation. “She’s our mat

    Chapter Ten Serena’s POV I woke up feeling... different. Not necessarily better, but at least I wasn’t shaking anymore. The room I was in was enormous—easily ten times the size of my actual room back in Lupine Pack. Everything about it screamed wealth. From the high ceiling with a crystal chandelier to the massive windows draped in velvet curtains, to the dark wooden floors and a bed so soft I could sink into it for days. I pushed myself up, rubbing my eyes as the memories of last night flooded back. The attack. The gunfire. Vincent Kane. And Damien. The beautiful monster who barely batted an eye at the chaos around us. The Psychopath who made me tremble at his touch shamelessly and begged, no man, none of my mates brought out such a desire in me.I shivered in self disgust and tried to look for guilt in me but my wolf snapped at me, letting me face the reality that this psychopath was our mate. I was here. In his world. And there was no way out. I glanced at the bedside

    CHAPTER ELEVEN Damien’s POV “What the fuck are you doing?” I couldn't hide my irritation as it simmered through my voice. I know I was a clusterfuck when it comes to my desires but she broke every resolve last night, fuck this silly bond but if there's one thing I knew about Serena was she was always moody and feisty with me, she never smile but always ready to stuck a dagger in my what if give the opportunity.She wasn't supposed to come to my Pack and witness a blood bath, that was totally unacceptable and uncalled for and may the Moons help them to be found, I'll show them massacre.And the moment I stepped into the living room, my jaw locked. Serena was laughing. Not just laughing but glowing. Her eyes were bright, her body language open as she sat across from my father, talking animatedly about something I didn’t care to understand. She looked so damn comfortable. It pissed me off. She had never once looked at me like that. Never smiled at me like I was something worth her at

    Damien's Pov And just when I was about to say something more, a loud knock echoed from the door which made me turn sharply. My anger increased at the interruption but I swung the door open to reveal Zayn, "Damien,"We’ve got a problem." He said with urgency and I shook my head turning to Serena who was now standing across the room, her arms crossed over her chest. I could see the confusion on her face. "Not now," I snapped, his voice sharp. "This is personal." Zayn’s expression didn’t change. "It’s about Vincent. He’s made his move. You need to handle it. Now." Fuck! I was hoping for more time, but the truth was, there was no more room for hesitation. The ritual had to be completed for peace to reign and Vincent wasn’t going to make it easy. I turned back to Serena,"Stay here," I commanded. "Don’t fucking move." "Where?" I turned to ask my beta who opened the door for me as I walked out. "Warehouse district, near the docks. He sent some of his dogs to ‘deliver a message’, they'r

Do you fucking know what you've done, who the fuck owns that package and the millions it cost?” Fear gripped my soul as he said those words, he was mad. His nose flared on his pretty face and as he stepped closer, blood drained on my face as his hands gripped me tightly till he pushed me to the wall.“I didn't want y

    Serena's PovDamien was dangerous. That much, I knew. But what I wasn’t prepared for was how my body reacted to him. It was really infuriating. The way his dominance wrapped around me like an iron chain and the way my skin burned when he touched me was too real, I felt starved and the worst thing was he was doing this to let me know that I'm helpless.“Get on the bed.” His voice was dark and consuming. Nothing else mattered in the world anymore aside from his intense stare and teasing on my skin. I swallowed hard and obeyed quietly, being male was normal for the wolves but I don't think that's the case with me right now, I was sweating and shaking under his intense stare.“Whatever you do, touching me or yourself is out of the box.”“What? What do you mean?” I asked him in confusion as I watched him take off the belt if his trousers and raw fear mixed with excitement enveloped my skin.“What I mean is that, those tiny hands stays in place while you watch what I do you”“Dam.. Damien?

    SERENAThe moment Zayn’s voice filled the room, I felt the air drain from my lungs.“He’s awake... and he’s asking for Serena.”I didn’t breathe and my body froze so completely that even the heartbeat in my chest seemed unsure if it should keep going. My voice came out as nothing but a whisper.“Alpha Magnus… wants to see me?”Why? Why me?My hands started shaking, with deep fear crawling through my skin like something old and buried had just been disturbed. My wolf whimpered inside me, unsure whether to be alert or terrified. What if he wanted to see me just to order my death in person? What if he woke up and his first words were, “Kill her”?Damien turned sharply to Zayn. “He’s asking for her? Are you sure?”Zayn nodded. “He looked me straight in the eye and said her name by repeating it twice.”Damien’s jaw clenched, hard enough that I saw a vein in his neck bulge. His gaze snapped to me, and I didn’t like the storm I saw in them. “You’re not going.”I blinked, swallowing the panic

    Damien's Pov I didn’t say a word as I carried Serena in my arms as her weight barely registered against the thudding war in my chest. I didn’t care about the stares, the whispers, or the accusations they threw at every corner about her. I didn’t even look back at the guards who’d just asked if they should execute my mate. Execute her. For what? Serving a plate she didn’t prepare?I was tired of everything. There's a lot to do but I'm Bone deep in this because this concerns my mate, a mate I contracted and got so deep into that rejecting her was a cursed word I never Intended to use.The last time I felt this helpless, I was eight years old, standing outside a bakery during the Full moon season and waiting for a woman who promised she'd return. She was my mother, my birth mother who had left me near a bin once when I was a baby as my dad had told me, she came back like a ghost when I was eight, and then left again. I’d run after her that day, barefoot on gravel, crying out in a voice

    SERENA’S POV My knees scraped the floor as I was dragged in like a criminal. The cold tiles bruised against my skin, but that pain was nothing compared to the ache drilling into my chest. My heart pounded wildly, wondering what on earth made Damien's Father collapse. Damien sat in the room without saying a word or looking at me and it made the room deathly quiet as everyone's eyes were on me. He sat at the end of the long dinner table, his face carved from stone as there was no expression and no flicker of emotion. He stared straight ahead like I wasn’t there looking bloodied, and accused but still trying to hold whatever remained of my dignity together. “I didn’t poison him,” I murmured, just loud enough for him to hear but my voice cracked. “I only served the food… Damien, you know that.” “Don't mention the Alpha's name!” One of the guards twisted my arm and I writhed in pain. “Sorry, Alpha.” But Damien didn't say anything. Zayn’s gaze flicked between the two of us as the

    Damien’s Point of ViewThe clatter of forks against porcelain plates was the only sound echoing through the long, marbled dining hall. It reminded me that even in a room full of powerful men, I was still fucking powerless.I didn’t touch my food because I couldn’t. I was cranky in thoughts of what to do when Serena stood behind me a few minutes ago, her head bowed like a criminal and serving meals to wolves who didn’t deserve to breathe the same air she did.My fists clenched beneath the table and they all saw it. The humiliation I was facing, I can't believe my own father was turning her into a personal servant, my supposed “mate” turned into a fucking server in front of the very investors who once feared my name.And what did I do?Nothing.I sat there like a coward vecause I had to.Because the Pack laws were designed to keep even Alphas like me under leash when it came to family politics.I could smell the smugness from my stepsisters as they elegantly chewed and sipped their wine

    Serena's Pov Cont…..,“Serve the food and stand aside, Do not leave. You will remain here and wait for further orders.”I froze as I was caught off-guard by the raw command in his voice. The guests and Pack elders in expensive suits pretending to be friends glanced at each other and they were amused, others were too bored to care aside from their meal. I could feel their gazes on me like knives dragging down my spine.“Father,” Damien’s voice came sharp, warning. “She’s not a maid but my mate!”“And I’m still your Alpha and your father. Sit down and keep your voice down. You already shamed this family enough by bringing a stripper into our pack,” Alpha Magnus spat, pointing a thick finger at me like I was some stain he couldn’t bleach out of his legacy.I didn’t flinch or even blink. I simply bowed my head and rolled the tray forward, One by one and placed the covered dishes in front of the Alpha, Damien, and the rest of the table. Not once did I lift my head again. I didn’t trust mys

    SERENA'S POVIvy’s outburst stunned me more than I could admit. It wasn’t the first time she scolded me or talked down at me like I was some stray dog let loose into their purebred kingdom, but this time… it was different. There was venom in her voice, Like she wanted to watch me squirm and bleed all because I carried half of the Mafia Alpha’s power, all because Damien and I were mated, because I was a stripper-turned-mate, an Omega with too much fire in her blood.To them, I was a stain.A filthy human who dared to touch something sacred. Damien.My legs refused to move when I saw him again—Damien. Standing like a dark god among suits and power, his jaw clenched like he’d just walked out of a war. My wolf nearly tore through my skin the second our eyes locked. Her howl roared inside me, echoing in the cage of my ribs and my fingers twitched, aching to touch him. My lips trembled, craving his taste. I missed him so much it felt like I was suffocating.I didn’t even know you could m

    Damien's Pov The click of my boots echoed sharply against the marble as I walked into the dining hall, flanked by investors in black tailored suits. My jaw was locked, and my fists were clenched inside my pockets. My wolf was restless beneath my skin, pacing, watching and waiting for something I didn't even know as I approached the mansion.I had just sealed the billion-dollar deal. It was a fucking miracle considering how tense the boardroom had been all day. But my voice, my power and my reputation as a married man had gotten us there. Every damn word I spoke carried the weight of blood, sweat, and war. The kind of war that makes lesser Alphas bow.And now, after all that, I was bringing them here—my home. The Pack House in the Syndicate Fang’s fortress. I had promised them a grand meal before the estate tour. Food, wine and a little sprinkle of celebration.But what I walked into wasn't a celebration. It was a chaos of my entire mind.The moment my foot crossed the threshold of th

    Serena’s Pov The dungeon smelled like old blood and a crushed pride. I could still hear their laughter echoing behind me even as I pressed my back against the cold wall, trying to hide the sting of their words. “Look at her,” one of the girls sneered, her voice soaked in cruel amusement. “The audacity of thinking she could seduce the Mafia King.” Another chimed in, “Just because you’re mated to him doesn’t make you special, sweetheart. Damien is a beast and beasts don’t fall in love—they devour. This should be one of your lessons for daring, only a strong woman like him should marry him” Their cackles bounced off the stone walls, slicing through the little strength I had left and I didn’t fight back. Not this time, I feel defeated and cursed as usual. Maybe my stepmother and sisters were right about being cursed, that nothing good comes my way. I swallowed the lump forming in my throat and kept my voice steady even if my insides trembled as their voices continue to haunt my head

    Damien's POV I stood there, hopeless.Not the kind of hopelessness that meant confusion or anxiety. No. This was a deep-rooted, gut-splitting kind of hopelessness that came from watching something you’ve fought like hell to protect get torn apart in the blink of an eye.Serena.This wasn’t supposed to happen. I thought I had done everything—everything—to make sure her past wouldn’t come back to haunt her. I had buried it so deep, paid off everyone, bought the damn club, wiped clean every trace that could tie her to that old life. But I guess fate wasn’t done playing games with us.At this moment, I hated myself. I regretted planning this wedding tonight. I should’ve waited. Should’ve let her heal first. She was still recovering from being abducted, tied like some damn goat to a chair. She hadn’t even processed that trauma fully. And now this? Public disgrace? From the same people she called family?I turned sharply to Zayn, my voice low but heavy with anger. “Shut it down. Whatever i
