A hand clasped her mouth and her eyes flew open ,it was dark and someone was hovering above her, pressing his hands to her lips.
Fay wanted to let out a scream but it was muffled by the powerful hand against her mouth.
Some people were in the room,the door was ajar and she could make out two huge figures standing by the door.
What was going on?
Her heart was pounding madly against her chest and she was panicking,she tried struggling with whoever it was that pulled her roughly out of the bed and dragged her to her feet.
Another powerful hand twisted her hand painfully behind her and tied a cord around her wrist,the other hand still clasped to her mouth.
Fay tried with all the strength she could gather to fight whoever it was but the person was just too powerful.
A sharp pain came at her neck as the needle of a syringe dug into her neck and she felt something slid into her blood.
Fay felt paralyzed to the bones,she fell back against the bed , looking up at the ceiling without being able to move a muscle.
Her thoughts were running round in confused circles,she was afraid,she didn't know what was going on or who the people in her room were.
She thought of her mother and her heart started pounding again,but she couldn't move,not even to wiggle her toes.
“Get her up”One of them said,his voice hoarse and dry,”We have to take her out immediately"
Fay's eyes widened,she tried making a sound but she couldn't. She knew she had been injected ,she knew she couldn't do anything.
Her eyes moved to the door and she saw a figure standing there looking at her,it was a woman but she couldn't make out who it was,it was so dark.
“Make sure you do a smooth job this time" She was saying but again,Fay couldn't make out who had the voice.
It seemed whatever that was injected into her was making her lose some basic things,she was afraid as she lay there helpless on her bed.
The lady turned away and Faywas lifted from the bed ,her body limp and unresponsive , they dragged her through the dark corridor she tried to struggle but her muscle felt like lead refusing to obey her commands.
They took turns in the corridor but they weren't going through the main entrance,instead they took another turn and were heading in another dark corridor to the back door.
They reached the entrance of the mansion,through the back door they had taken and one of the men whispered something to the security guards.
They seemed to talk for some minutes and one of the men handed something to the security guard,they turned to look at her .
Fay couldn't make out what they were saying but the guards nodded and step aside ,allowing them to pass
Fay was thrown into the trunk of the car, her body bouncing off the cold metal .She tried to cry out but her voice was hoarse and barely audible, the trunk lid closed and she was plunged into darkness.
The car drove for what felt like hours, Fay's mind racing with fear and confusion; she couldn't move, couldn't escape, she was completely at the mercy of her captors.
Her thoughts went back to her mother,the unfair treatments she had always gone through in the mansion and what would become of her without her in the mansion.
She thought of how her mother would feel when she woke up without seeing her in the morning,a tear slipped down her cheeks.
Finally the car stopped and the trunk lid opened ,Fay was pulled out ,her body dumped onto the forest floor.
She looked around trying to take in her surroundings but her vision was blurred.
Two figures stood before her ,their faces twisted into snares, they began to transform, their body’s contorting into wolves.
Fay's Heart raced as she realized they were going to attack her,she didn't know who they were and why they wanted to kill her but what she knew was that she had to survive,she had to stay alive for her mother.
But then, a third wolf appeared, its fur Gray and majestic,the two wolves snarled and attacked but the gray road fought them with its teeth snapping in the darkness.
The gray wolf caught back ,it's fur standing on end as it defended itself against the two attackers
Fay watched in horror, her mind foggy from the injection as the three wolves clashed in a frenzy of teeth and claws.
But the two wolves were no match for the gray wolf ,they stumbled back wounded and then ran away and disappeared into the darkness.
The gray wolf approached Fay,its eyes gleaming in the moonlight.she tried to scramble away but her body felt heavy and unresponsive the wolf looked over her, its hot breath washing over her face.
And then, in a flash of movement, the wolf transformed into a man . Fay's eyes widened in shock and she took in his rugged features,his piercing eyes and his muscular physique.
“Are you okay?" He asked softly, brushing his hand over her hair.
But then she didn't have time to react as her vision began to blur and she felt herself falling into darkness. She tried to speak but her voice was barely a whisper.
Her thoughts were running wide,she wondered who he was and why he was helping her as she stared up into his face,his eyes gleaming in the moonlight.
Her thoughts were soon interrupted,her vision began to fade,her head was throbbing in pain as the darkness started to claim her.
He slid his hand behind her and raised her up to his chest,her body limp in his arms.
“You are safe now …you would be okay," He was saying,”Let me take you home”
Fay's eyes fluttered open slowly,a rush of sunlight drove into her eyes and she shut them quickly with a grunt.She attempted to open her eyes again, slowly this time and squinted at the sunlight that was pouring from somewhere .Fay's eyes adjusted to where she was and she looked around.She was lying in a very soft bed,in a magnificent room…that was odd.Where was she?The question jammed into her head,she tried to get up but an ache ran through her body , settling on her head and she grimaced.She tried to recollect what had happened and what she was doing here but the more she tried,the more the pain jammed into her head.The door pushed open and some uniformed maids filed in,two of them wheeling a trolley filled with delicious food and drinks while others wheeled a cloth trolley.Fay watched them wheel them towards the bed and they turned to her,Fay tried to sit up irrespective of the pain and soreness she felt all over her body.“Where am I?" Fay asked silently“Good morning,ma'am
Fay stood in front of the large,ornatemirror,mesmerized by the reflection staringback at her. The harsh, rough edges of herpast had faded, replacedby the image of ayoung woman who looked almost like astranger.Her hair now ,brushed and shining, fell insoft waves around her shoulders and thetattered clothes that once clung to her skinin desperation had been replaced by asimple yet elegant dress that hugged hercurves in all the right places.For the first time in what felt likeforever,she didn't feel like the world wasclosing in on her. She stared at thedelicate sapphire necklace Dominic hadgifted her, its blue stone reflecting a lightthat almost seemed to glow.It was a small touch but it's made herfeel... Precious. Special, even. She inhaleddeeply, trying to ground herself but therewas still that lingering tension in her chest.The trauma she had endured was notsomething that could be wiped away with apretty dress or a new life in a mansion.The sound of footsteps
Dominic had been searching for hours.After the rigorous training session, he'dexpected to find Fay somewhere within thefacility, still working to master the basics.But when he'd checked the gym, theweight room, even the locker rooms, she was nowhere to be found.His Patience was wearing thin, not because he was angry but because he worried about her, about how she was feeling. She had so much potentials but the pressure of her new world ,the weight of it all had begun to crush her.It was when he was nearing the edge of the building ,walking along the perimeter near a small garden that he spotted her.She was alone, sitting on the edge of the company's outdoor pool,her legs dangling lazily in the water.Her back was turned to him and she looked small, almost fragile against the vastness of the steel walls that surrounded them. The contrast of her delicate form against the raw, industrial landscape made something inside Dominic twist with concern.He moved closer, his steps quiet
The halls of Steelworks were cold andsterile, lined with steel walls and polishedfloors that reflected the overhead lights likemirrors. Fay walked through the corridors,her steps slow and calculative as she tried to make sense of everything that had happened.The distant hum of the machinery reminded her of the tension that still clung tight to her.The people she had seen were all strong, confident and powerful,they only seemed to highlight her own doubts and constant insecurities.Fay couldn't shake off the feeling that she didn't belong here,that she would never fit in.As she turned to a corner, her thoughts wereinterrupted by a group of girls who werewalking in the opposite direction. Theywere laughing, their high heels clickingagainst the floor as they chatted amongstthemselves. Fay stepped aside , trying her best to make herself as invincible as possible.The girls were so engrossed in their discussion and didn't notice her at first but then one of them, a tall blonde
Fay stood by the large windows, her hands wrapped around the cool metal railing as she looked out over the vast grounds of Steelworks. The wind carried the earthy scent of the forest, and the sky was beginning to darken, the soft orange hue of sunset casting a glow across the horizon. She tried to clear her mind, but it was impossible. Her thoughts kept drifting back to the training, to the words the others had spoken, and to the way her own body had betrayed her. She had wanted so desperately to prove herself, to be strong like the others, but each time she failed, it felt like another piece of her was breaking.She was so lost in her thoughts that shedidn't notice Dominic approaching. Hispresence was always a quiet force, butthis time, she felt him before she saw him.He was talking in hushed tones to a groupof huge men-werewolves, like him. They were standing in a circle, their bodylanguage imposing, the air thick withauthority. She could barely make out thewords, but sh
The cold steel floor beneath her feet wasnothing compared to the coldness she feltinside. Fay stood in the center of thetraining room, trying to steady her breath.Around her, the pack moved with graceand purpose, shifting effortlessly betweenforms, demonstrating enhanced sensesand agility with such ease that Fay couldn'thelp but feel inadequate.Dominic stood nearby, watching her with athoughtful expression. "Focus, Fay. Feelyour connection to the ground, to the air.You need to center yourself before you cantap into your instincts."Fay nodded, but her mind was far fromcalm. Every time she attempted to focus, itfelt as if she was swimming against anoverwhelming current. While the others seemed born for this life, she could barely manage to control her senses. Her heightened hearing, her vision--everything seemed to overwhelm her. She couldn't seem to overwhelm her. She couldn't quite make sense of it. Why wasn't this coming naturally to her?"Alright, let's start simp
The night was cold, and the air felt thick with an unsettling tension as Lady Rosie stood at the back entrance of the mansion.The sharp wind tugged at her cloak,swirling it around her like an omen. The pale crescent moon barely illuminated the courtyard, casting long, sinister shadows that seemed to stretch and shift with every gust of wind. She stared into the darkness,her thoughts spiraling as she tried to process the failure of her mission. The rogue wolves had been sent to eliminate Fay, but instead, they had returned empty-handed, with nothing but a pitiful tale of failure.Lady Rosie's jaw tightened as she thought about it. She had underestimated Fay's strength. But there was more to this. Someone powerful had intervened on Fay's behalf. She didn't know who or what this new threat was, but it was clear this force had protected Fay. And that realization made her blood boil. Nobody, not even a wolf, stood in her way.Her thoughts were interrupted by the heavy sound of approachi
Lady Rosie walked through the grand hall of the mansion, her heels clicking sharply against the marble floors. The mansion felt unnaturally quiet, the silence pressing in on her as she made her way to her daughter's room. Her mind was still focused on the failure of the rogue wolves. They had failed her. But there was something deeper brewing beneath the surface, a power that she couldn't yet understand. The mystery of Fay and the strange wolf that had rescued her gnawed at her thoughts.As she reached her daughter's door, she hesitated for a brief moment, running a hand over the rich fabric of her cloak. She could feel the weight of her decisions on her shoulders.Gwen would soon be married to Alpha Roderick. It should have been a moment of joy, but Lady Rosie couldn't shake the feeling that something was about to shift,something big was coming.She pushed the door open softly, revealing herdaughter's room. Gwen clear green eyes sparkled ,she was standing by the window, her hands ne
Dominic sat beside Fay on the bed, his eyes full of concern as he gently wrapped a thick, warm, blanket around her shivering body. Her skin was ice cold to the touch, and her breathing still came in ragged gasps. The transformation had taken a toll on her, but he knew she would be alright. The room was quiet, save for the faint crackling of the fire in the hearth, which cast soft, dancing shadows across the stone walls.The Elders had shown them to a small, secluded room in the ancient building where they could rest. Dominic had already prepared a calming herbal brew for her, the scent of mint and lavender filling the air. He helped her drink it slowly, watching as she winced slightly at the bitter taste, but she sipped it down, her fingers trembling against the cup."That should help you relax," Dominic murmured softly, brushing a strand of her damp hair from her forehead. "You did well, Fay. That was... an incredible moment."Fay nodded, but her gaze was distant, as if she were sti
The air inside the car was thick with anticipation as Dominic drove toward the unknown. Fay sat beside him, her hands tightly clenched in her lap, her mind swirling with a mix of fear, confusion, and excitement. The journey had been long, but they were finally close. The Elders had asked to meet her--no, they needed to meet her. It was time for her to understand who she truly was, what she was destined to become.It was time.As the car came to a slow stop, Fay looked out the window, her breath catching in her throat. The building before them was massive, ancient and intimidating. Towering stone walls stretched up to the sky, covered in ivy and worn by time. At the entrance stood two giant wolf statues, their eyes fierce and unblinking, as if guarding the threshold to a realm beyond her comprehension. The statues were worn, but their majesty still commanded respect.Dominic's voice cut through her thoughts as he turned off the engine. "We're here."Fay nodded silently, her heart raci
The night was thick with an eerie silence that settled like a heavy blanket over the mansion. Outside, Fay could hear even the faintest sounds, she listened as the wind whispered through the trees, and inside perhaps from the very far distance, all was still.Was this all that comes with her powers, with her wolf awakening?She decided to focus on just one sound and then almost successfully the only sound she brought herself to hear now was the steady, rhythmic breathing of Dominic as he slept, his chest rising and falling in the peaceful rhythm of slumber. Fay lay awake beside him, staring up at the dark ceiling and at the sane time, trying to control the bubbling inside her veins. For wolves sake, she could even hear her blood surging in her human-wolf veins.Her mind was far from peaceful, troubled by thethoughts of the future and the power she was still learning to control. The faint hum of her own energy buzzed in the background, but it was the images of the Council, the threat
The room remained eerily still as the last echoes of Fay's explosive display faded into the air. The trainers, who had been silent witnesses to the unexpected eruption of power, began to stir, their murmurs low but filled with awe. "Good grief, she's becoming powerful" Someone whispered "More than Dominic? I don't think so." Someone whispered back."How in the name of the moon goddess did she do that?" Another asked."Is she really what they're all saying she is?"One by one, they filed out of the room, speaking in hushed tones to one another, clearly shaken by what they had just witnessed. The training hall, usually filled with the sounds of combat and training, now seemed haunted by the aftermath of the power that had surged from Fay.Fay stood in the center of the room, still reeling from the overwhelming wave of strength that had taken hold of her. Her breath came in quick, shallow gasps as she tried to steady herself. She could still feel the pulse of her wolfs energy thrummin
The sounds of the training room echoed through the mansion, a constant rhythm of grunts, footsteps, and the clash of limbs as the fighters trained relentlessly. Sweat dripped from their brows, muscles straining under the weight of their efforts. The trainers, sitting at the sidelines, observed with sharp eyes, making sure every move was executed perfectly, every strike counted.In the middle of it all stood Fay, her body poisedand alert, facing her opponent - Dominic. She had been training with him for weeks now, growing more powerful each day.Today, however, was different. Today, Dominic had decided to push her further, to challenge her in ways he hadn't before. He nodded to her challenger, telling him to take a break as he walked to Fay who was looking surprised as well as the other trainers.Fay gave him a questioning look and he only smiled, he could see the uncertainty in her eyes as he stepped forward , she stood doubting if it was possible to combat Dominic.She felt the ten
The quiet of the mansion settled over Dominic like a blanket, his mind wandering to the changes that had come into his life. His chest was bare, the smooth skin of his muscles stretching as he stood before the mirror. In the reflection, his inky ancient tattoos seemed darker, deeper, as if they too were growing with the awakening that had started within him. His mind was full of thoughts...thoughts about Fay, about her power, about the future that seemed so uncertain but still so full of promise. He was aware of the changes happening within her, but every time he looked at her, it felt as though the transformation was unfolding at a faster pace than even he had expected.Dominic's gaze was unfocused as he stared at himself, contemplating the mysteries that lay ahead, but the sound of the bathroom door creaking open pulled him from his thoughts. He glanced over, his heart skipping a beat when he saw Fay emerge from the bathroom, the dim light casting soft shadows across her silhouet
The grand hall of the council chambers was bathed in the soft glow of chandeliers overhead, the long wooden table stretched out in front of Alpha Roderick and Gwen, casting shadows across the polished floor. The members of the council had long arrived, they sat in silence as they continued to wait patiently for Alpha Roderick, the expression on their faces were mixed with distain and patienceThey had long been expecting the Alpha's arrival and here it was...the power dynamics of their world would shift in a way none of them expected.Roderick walked into the room first, his chestproud and head held high. He had always commanded respect, always walked with the confidence of someone who was in control. But today, he was no longer alone. Gwen, his Luna, the one who holds the final say , followed closely behind, her every step a proof to the authority she now wielded. As they entered the room together, the council members turned to look at themselves andbshifted uncomfortably in their
Alpha Roderick stood before the large, ornate mirror in his quarters, adjusting the collar of his black suit. The reflection staring back at him was one he had seen countless times, but today, it felt different. There was something in the air-an unspoken shift, a quiet storm that made the hair on the back of his neck stand at attention.His broad shoulders were square with the mirror as he fastened his cufflinks, each one a reminder of the power he had built and the weight of the legacy he carried as Alpha of the pack. He wasn't just an Alpha; he was the leader of a force that demanded respect. Yet, as he prepared for the upcoming meeting with the council, something felt of. He couldn't quite place it, but the nagging feeling in his gut gnawed at him.The door to his room creaked open softly, and a figure stepped inside. Roderick didn't need to turn around to know who it was. Gwen, his Luna, the woman who had become his anchor, his strength, and, lately, his guide in more ways than on
Fay walked down the long hallway, her footsteps echoing softly against the polished marble floor. The walls, lined with portraits of ancestors and old arts, seemed to stretch on forever. But it wasn't the ornate décor that caught her attention today it was the eyes of the people she passed.Before, they had always looked at her with curiosity or indifference, but now it was different. They greeted her with smiles, some even waved, their faces lighting up when they saw her. She could hear whispers of her name, carried to her on the breeze of their Conversations.It was as if she had become someone entirely new, someone who had earned their respect-or perhaps their admiration. But the change unsettled her a little. She wasn't sure if she wasready for all this attention, for this new version of herself.As she walked, she tried to steady her nerves, focusing on the way the hallway curved just ahead. At the end of the corridor. Dominic's office door stood slightly ajar, a faint light spi
