Chapter 11 Rizine glanced at the big bed in the middle of the bedroom. The room was coated in dark-brown paint giving her a dreadful feeling. Tears streamed down her cheeks as she stared at the women before her and she bit the inside of her cheeks to refrain from bawling her eyes out. "Why are you crying?" one of the women asked as they took off her clothes. She stood naked before them and they ushered her into the big bathtub filled with scented petals and rose body wash. "I wonder," the second woman added, "She should be grateful that she has been spared instead she is crying." "She's ungrateful. What do you expect from a murderer," the third woman said scornfully. Rizine felt her heart wrench in pain as she stared at them. Her voice was hoarse from screaming, "I'm not a murderer!" Yet, no one had been inclined to believe her. She couldn't blame the twins, they had after all rescued her from Aster and wanted to take care of her but looks like she was a cursed wolf. The wom
Whip! Rizine howled in pain as the whip landed on her bare butt cheeks. "Please, have mercy!" she cried. "You lost count again. Now I'm going to start afresh," Kilian said. Milan chuckled darkly as he sat down on the bed staring at Rizine, heaving and wailing in pain. You shouldn't be feeling smug, you're hurting mate. Milan rolled his eyes at his wolf. Mate hurt us first by killing our father. No, she didn't, his wolf retorted. I'm not having this conversation with you. You should be grateful that I spared her life! With those words, Milan turned off his wolf and then focused on enjoying the show. He would make sure that Rizine is in so much pain and suffering then she would confess who sent her to kill his father. Rizine stared at Kilian with teary eyes hoping he would at least let her be. "Please, I beg of you. Have mercy on me," she wailed. Kilian was having none of that as he stared at her beautiful brown orbs. He had been developing a soft spot for her but she had t
Rizine stared at the massive figure before her, her lips parted slightly from shock as she finally swallowed and seemed to recover herself. "I should have known you were behind this!" she snapped. Then she turned and fled from him to at least warn the twins who their opponent was but a strong grip around her waist stopped her movement. "You're not going to escape me that easily again," Aster sneered. Rizine shuddered as he sniffed her neck and suddenly his eyes flashed from black to their normal colors. "How dare they claim you?!" he roared angrily. Rizine whimpered when he tightened his hold around her waist, she knew her hips would bruise later. "You're hurting me, Aster," she cried. "Shut up!" he yelled at her and smacked her hard across her cheeks. Rizine fell to the floor, stars clouding her eyesight momentarily. "No, please!" she cried, raising her hands to cover her face in case he decided to hurt her more. "You are a fucking slut! Why did you seduce them for them to
Chapter 14 Rizine groaned as she opened her eyes. She felt a splitting headache hit her and she sighed trying to massage her temples but she was shocked when she realized she couldn't move her hands. Her eyes got adjusted to the darkness and she saw she was chained to the wall. She panicked and screamed out. She last remembered being knocked out on her way to inform the twins about Aster's plans. Who could have kidnapped her? She wondered. She tried to wriggle out of the chains but it had sliver coated on it and it kept burning her wrist. Just then the door was slammed open and light flooded into the dungeon where she was kept. Rizine gasped when she saw who stood before her. "Did you honestly think a small knife could kill me?" Aster asked. He walked towards her in a menacing manner and she cowered in the corner. "Please, I didn't mean to stab you I just wanted to get away," Rizine pleaded. Aster chuckled. "I'm certain you didn't because you're a weak wolf and you can't do any
Rizine stared at Aster with so much disgust and hatred evident in her eyes — not forgetting to mention that the said eyes did not only mirrored through disdain for the cruel male in front of her, but they were also sore and hollow from so much crying. Aster took advantage of her, again. Her hate for him always seemed to multiply anytime she remembered all that transpired between yesterday and today, his violence, the rape and the kidnap. What the hell is wrong with this man? Why is his head so messed up? Rizine sniffled, "Why did you take me?" "Do I hear anger in your voice, my love?" Aster asked, a sly smile playing on his lips. Rizine wanted nothing more than to swipe that stupid smile off his face and make him unable to move his lips, permanently. And that's because all those lips did were to inflict pains, all they did were to spew lies, all they did were to cause Rizine hurt. Aster stepped forward and lowered himself down to Rizine's height. She was still tied up, her
"We're going on a journey." Aster suddenly announced and Rizine looked up at him — she wished she was able to make a face to mirror her anger, the confusion she felt from hearing that statement and her overall hatred for Aster. But she was too weak. She hadn't eaten ever since she was kidnapped by Rizine, not to mention the physical and emotional abuse from him. She was too tired to move even the slightest of muscles. But that would mean she won't be able to put up a protest when Aster wanted to carry out his devious plan of going on whatever journey he had planned out. She didn't want to go. "P—please, no." Rizine begged feebly, vigor drained from her tone and her eyes were even more hollow than they were before, sleep deprived, hunger stricken and saddened. "Sadly,you don't have a say in this Rizine." Aster refuted her pleas, an evil smirk on his face. He enjoyed seeing how powerless Rizine looked, and also enjoyed being able to make decisions concerning them without her
"All of you, go now! Search for the slave, Rizine! And do not come back here until you find her." Milan dished the command to his formidable warriors. "Yes sir!" They all chorused and then they shifted into their warrior–wolf form, forming a troupe and then they ran out of the fields and into the forest to search for Rizine. Killian and Milan would've loved to go on the rescue mission with them, but they were extremely tired from searching for Rizine for the past few days and they needed rest. Yet, she still needed to be found. Even though she killed their father. The twins were still upset with her for killing their father and not only that, but setting them up too. Rizine was pure evil for that, and they were desperately fighting against the natural urge to leave her alone to die whenever she was. To atone for her sins. Regardless of the apparent disdain they haboured for her, they still knew that they had to save her by all means. She was their mate — both of th
Milan and Kilan left the fields and went back into the palace to further discuss on the top Alphas they would solicit help from during these tough times. Only both of them were present in the meeting room — they decided to keep it between themselves for now that they were too weak as a kingdom that they had to find help from others, announcing it to the rest of the council may instill some level of panic and they would start to get scared. So for now, the twins decided to keep it a secret and had the private meeting behind closed doors. They settled down on their chairs, a sheet of paper and a pen in front of them. It was time to start brainstorming. "So what Alpha are we starting with first, do you have any in mind?" Milan asked his brother and Killian thought about it deeply. He didn't want to make any mistakes with this and didn't want to settle for any Kingdom that might either refuse or take advantage of their state and instead of offering help, they use the opportunity to s
