Ethan's POV

I swiftly arrived at the dungeon and when the guards saw my demeanor, they quickly stepped aside without asking questions.

The rogue was in a cell, he was naked and chained to the wall but he was asleep.

Who gave this bitch the right to sleep after what he did?

The scars of my earlier torture of him where still fresh but had been treated. His hand, the one I'd played with was bandaged and he was of course missing a few fingers, courtesy of me.

I kicked his face to wake him up and he startled awake.

He began shaking when he saw me in front of him. I remember this scene all too well, this is exactly how I felt each time Tanika came to torment me. The terror she made me feel, I feed on it now.

"Please….. please no more. I already told the truth, I told you who sent me so please spare me. Please." He was begging and he was……crying?

He really is scared of me. Had I been a normal person, I might have taken pity on him but I have no heart, neither does showing mercy appeal

I almost want to feel sorry for the rogue. Almost. He shouldn't have messed with Esme.

    Esme's POVI released a yawn as I snuggled further into my pillow, it was warm but strangely hard at the same time and it smelt really nice. It probably just needs a little padding.I moved my hand over to my pillow and felt something instead. Skin?I finally pushed aside the tiredness and got up and what I saw nearly made me scream out my lungs.My scream seemed to have alerted him as he instantly got up in a defensive position but he relaxed when he saw that it was just me."What the hell is wrong with you? Why are you screaming like that so early in the morning?" He questioned, his bed hair making it difficult for me to take him seriously.I tightened my hands around the blanket over my chest, quickly lowering my gaze to the bed as my face turned red in an instant. This is so embarrassing.Since the both of us are naked, we slept on the same bed and were obviously snuggling before I ruined the moment, does that mean that we…….But how is that possible? How did it even happen? I hav

    Esme's POVI just had my breakfast and I'm currently resting in my room. A knock came to my door and already knowing who it would be, I asked the person to come in.Rachel walked into the room and closed the door behind her."How are you feeling now, dear?" She asked as she approached me while I sat up."I already said that I'm fine, please stop asking, it's making me feel like a burden." I requested and she nodded, taking a seat beside me."I'm truly glad that you're OK, you had us all very worried. I haven't seen Ethan like that in a long time, it made me both happy and sad. I was happy that he cared for you and sad that you were in such a terrible condition." She revealed."I'm really sorry for making you worry but I'm pretty sure that the Alpha doesn't care for me. He can't even stand my presence and when he does stay in a room with me, the only thing we do is argue." I complained and she chuckled."That's exactly the reason why I believe that you're getting to him, slowly but sur

    Esme's POVI somehow managed to get Ethan to drop the war idea. He's not happy about it but I'm glad that he heeded my request.I also don't want him to kill Alpha Edgar since he's the only family that Kira has and I don't want to take that away from her.I'll never be able to forget her kindness to me over the years. If not for her, I would probably be dead a long time ago. I always wondered how I would repay her and now I'll return her kindness by sparing the life of her uncle.Ethan agreed to grant forgiveness to Alpha Edgar and the rest of my Pack this one time and promised that he would not spare Alpha Edgar the next time he tried a stunt like that and I agreed to that.I just hope he's satisfied and doesn't try to harm me again, for Kira's sake at least.A few days have already passed and I haven't seen Ethan. He's probably still mad at me for stopping him from going to war. I've recuperated fully so I can finally return back to trying to win his heart.I went to the Kitchen an

    Esme's POVEthan's lips stretched in a smile which quickly escalated to a full on laugh. It was beautiful, seeing him laugh like this. This is the first time I've seen him laugh freely and genuinely."The words that come out of your mouth can be so funny at times, you know that? I've told you before to get rid of that silly fantasy you have. I won't be able to love you and I don't need your love, it'll just be a burden. There is no happy ending for us, there never was and there never will be. You can keep holding on to that false belief for as long as you can but eventually, reality will come crashing down on you." He said and stood up to leave."Why do you do it?" I suddenly asked without thinking."Do what?" He asked back without looking at me."Why do you keep running away from me? You're always acting like I repulse you. Are you scared of me or something?" I inquired."Don't flatter yourself Esme, even an ant wouldn't be scared of you." He tried to brush me aside."Then why do y

    "Please….. please stop this, I'm begging you. I don't want to lose it like this, please don't do this." I cried out and he suddenly paused.He stared at me straight in the eyes for a few minutes, as if searching for something before he finally sighed and got off of me.I sat up quickly and picked up the blanket, wrapping it around myself.I gazed at Ethan, his back was turned to me. "What the fuck was I just about to do?!" I heard him groan as he ran a hand through his hair.I don't even know what to make of any of this. Just now he seemed like he was a different person, almost like he was possessed but now he seems……repentant?"Is everything……" I tried to see if he was OK but he suddenly cut me off."Just get out please. Why won't you listen to me and stay away? Just now I almost did something we both would have regretted. Don't test me, just leave." He said and it almost sounded like he was pleading with me.Something seemed to have come over him before but he regained his self cont

    Esme's POVI can't stop staring at the clock, time seems to be the slowest it has ever been. I can't tell why but I'm so excited for my one hour with Ethan. I'm excited but scared at the same time, my stomach is swirling around like a vortex and I can't even figure out why. Probably because today is the first day, this feeling should ease down in the next few days.I wonder what we're going to talk about. But come to think of it, why am I just sitting around waiting for him when I could be doing stuff to take my mind off of it?He never gave a certain time, he just said he would come to me when he was less busy and that could be anytime, even in the middle of the night. Why am I acting like a teen excited for her first date? I should really go do something, probably help Rachel out with some chores. But will I really be able to concentrate on anything? What if Ethan comes to my room and doesn't see me and then decides not to bother looking for me?"Calm down Esme. Geez, you'll get a

    Esme's POVAlpha Theon and his entourage instantly approached us and I was surprised to see him give Ethan a hug."Ethan, it's been such a long time. You should visit more." He said."I would but you know that when duty calls, I barely have any spare time." Ethan replied."You've used that excuse way too many times but I understand that you're not a gregarious man. I deeply apologize for calling on you so suddenly, I hope you experienced no inconveniences during the trip." Alpha Theon inquired."It was certainly on short notice but there's really nothing I can't handle." Ethan said with a small smile while I just watched the exchange in awe.This is the most social I've ever seen him. Alpha Theon finally turned to me."And who is this lovely lady you have with you?" He asked politely."She's my ma…..my Luna." Ethan answered while I fought to hide my smile. He had just called me his Luna for the first time."Congratulations Ethan, I'm glad that you finally found your better half and s

I asked and she walked over to me and held me in a tight hug before breaking into tears."What's wrong? Did someone say something to you?" I asked and she sniffed before moving away from me and wiping her tears."I'm sorry for going berserk on you like that, I just couldn't help it." She apologized."It's not a problem, just please tell me what the problem is." I requested."This marriage that's about to happen is wrong. I'm being forced to marry Raiden." She disclosed."What? But why? I thought you would be getting married to your mate." I replied."I'm unfortunate enough to not be granted that privilege." She said dejectedly."Did he reject you?""No. He's dead. My mate is dead and he was killed by Raiden." Norn revealed and I gasped, trying to process everything I had just been told."The man you're about to marry killed your mate? You're going to have to explain this a bit more." I dema

There has to be some kind of way through it since there isn't a way around it. I'll take a look." He said and moved away and though I wanted to stop him, I resisted the urge."It's just as I thought." I suddenly heard him blurt out."Did you find something?" I asked as I made my way to the spot which he was crouched over."There's a rope ladder here. It's been set securely in place and seems to go all the way down." He mentioned it to me and I touched the ladder, confirming how sturdy it was. I didn't know if to consider this a good thing.A prepared ladder just sitting around waiting here for us might not be a good sign, I don't even know what we should expect."Who could have put it here?"

    Esme's POV Tanika. Alpha Waylen. Nightwalker Pack. These words kept swirling in my head. The things she had just said, none of them made any sense. I have no business with Tanika and the Night Walker Pack. Besides, Tanika is dead, Ethan said he killed her himself. Even if she survived by some miracle, what on earth would she be doing in the Forbidden Zone? She couldn't possibly be the one standing in front of me, this has to be a trick. I need to get this girl, whoever she is to leave me alone and I have to find Axel so we can get out of this hole as soon as possible. "That's not possible, you're lying." I blurted. "Arlene, why would you say that?" She asked and tried to touch my face but I dodged her advances. "Don't call me that and stay away from me. I need to get out of here, I have to find Axel." I said and limped away, trying to go as far away as I could from her but her next words paused me in my tracks. "Don't you want to know the truth? The truth of your existence? Don

    Esme's POVA wonderful aroma tickled my senses, causing me to turn sideways but my eyes forced open when a sharp pain from my leg hit me.I groaned and tossed the blanket wrapped around me to the side before rising a bit, carefully sitting up. I feel really groggy and my body isn't even cooperating. I scratched at my eyes and yawned, stretching a bit. The delicious smell came again and I looked around to see Axel, he was sitting by the fire and seemed to be cooking something."You're finally awake, good morning." He greeted me with a smile while I replied accordingly."Good morning.""How do you feel?" He asked and I paused for a bit, trying to find the best way to describe how I felt."Honestly, I don't feel good at all. My leg still hurts, though not as bad as yesterday, it's painful but bearable. I feel tired, my throat's a bit dry and the nausea's back again. I feel bloated and my boobs hurt, they're swollen." I surmised."That's a good sign." He sighed."What?""You're only exper

    Esme's POV"What?!" I blurted weakly."If I'm ever going to have a chance to finish the mission, I can't lose a leg. Please there has to be some other way." I pleaded, my eyes watering.The thought of my leg being cut off, coupled with the pain, wasn't something I wanted to imagine."There's only one other way I can think of but it's not guaranteed. If it doesn't work, the poison will still be able to get to your heart and kill you." He suggested"Just try it at least, please." I begged and he took a deep breath. He brought out a pair of pants and tore it into long strips before tying one very tightly at the start of the swelling and he did the same at the end, towards my foot."What are you going to do?" I couldn't help but ask. "I'm going to try to see if I can get the poison to flow out with your blood, that's why I tied up your leg, so it wouldn't be able to spread. I'll cut open the swelling and we can let the blood flow out. I'll cauterize the wound right after but it's going to

    Esme's POVMy scream rented the air as soon as my eyes darted to the ground. Leafy vines had wrapped around my legs and were moving up my body fast.The vines moved smoothly on their own, surrounding my body and holding me tightly in place. What kind of plant is this? And how can it move so fluidly on its own? It seems to be intelligent as well, going for my legs first.Axel rushed over and his eyes widened when he saw my current dilemma."Esme!" He called out worriedly before pausing. He took a few steps back, creating a good distance between us.If he gets too close, the vines might ensnare him as well and we'll both be in trouble."Please stop struggling, these are carnivorous vines. If you move too much, it might try to harm you." He warned and I paused, my heart beating wildly in my chest.A leafy and thorn filled vine creeped over to me and wrapped around my body, shredding my clothes. Wait a minute, it seems like it's trying to gain access to my skin. After having escaped deat

    Esme's POV "Wow. It's so phantasmagoric. Looking through this boundary, the Forbidden Zone seems so beautiful but it's the deadliest place in existence." Axel commented. "I agree with you completely, it's so beautiful but we have to be careful. You remember what Irma said, looks are often deceiving." I reminded him. I moved behind him and opened the backpack, placing the traveler's stone in it. "Let's go." I beckoned and we both walked through the boundary and into the Forbidden Zone. The place was massive, spanning for miles but also really beautiful with huge trees, clear skies and nice vegetation. The air felt cool and relaxing, the songs of beautiful birds filled the air and butterflies littered the place, flying around the low grasses. This place feels like it was created right out of a dream, it looks like paradise. "The view is awesome and I've never seen trees like these before, the flowers are pretty." I blurted. "Trees like these are rather rare, they grow naturally i

I wouldn't be a seer if I didn't know this, would I?" She asked softly.Damn it. I had royally underestimated this woman and I had completely forgotten the fact that she was clairvoyant.But if she knew I was coming, is it possible that this is a trap? Is that perhaps why Rachel had not reacted when Axel and I passed by? Does she already know as well? I wouldn't be surprised now if several guards burst through that door any minute.This is all just so hard to deal with."Cast your fears away, dear. Rachel doesn't know a thing." She said as if reading my mind."Why should I believe a single word you say? You're Rachel's friend after all. You could be trying to trick me." I countered."Yes, but I wouldn't gain anything from that, would I? By the time I arrived, I already knew the plans that Rachel had for you. I knew she was going to

I alerted and he paused to take a good look at me. I could see a smile stretching the edge of his lips."Is my disguise convincing enough or am I missing something?" I asked in a fret."No, you aren't missing anything. Your disguise is pretty convincing. I'm rather surprised how good you look even in men's clothes." He said and I didn't have time to decide if he was either flirting or just teasing."Alright, let's go." I urged and we both headed for the door. But I quickly made a stop at my bedside table to grab the fruit knife just in case I might really need it.He went out first and when he told me the coast was clear, I followed.He locked the door from the outside but left the key in
