Hunter"Hunter, calm down," Mom said, "Breaking things like this is not going to solve the problem.""I don't have any idea where the hell she is, she is not in the pack, mom. Do you fucking understand what that means? Do you even understand the things that can happen to her?" I shouted, "There are enemies everywhere, they can seriously hurt her, and I might never be able to get her back.""We will get her back, son. Please calm down." Dad spoke."No, I can't calm down. I can't until I find her," I threw away the chair against the wall, till now the entire office was a mess; Everything was destructed to the point of no return but I could care less about that, all that was in my mind was my Aria.It was all my fault.I should have told her about everything. How much pain she must have gone through!The look on her face from last night was still haunting me. She looked so...broken; It was all because of me.I knew she was in danger, it was so obvious. She has gone through the toughest
AriaSince the past hour, I had not been able to move an inch from where Knight tied me. These ropes were so tight that every time I moved my hands my skin would end up getting sliced, the more I strained against it the more it'd hurt me.Tension, fear, anxiety— I felt all sorts of emotions attack me from every side.I had to do something to save my pack but here I was, under this brute's captive. And if I can't get out then he'd destroy my pack, he'd succeed in his mission. I needed to warn the members about Knight's plan.I struggled against the restraints, ignoring all the pain it was causing me. The gag muffled my groans and screams, almost suffocating me.And then suddenly the door opened and entered none other than the demon himself—Knight.Amusement shined in his atrocious grey eyes, "I see, you haven't given up yet."He stalked closer, there was a plate of food in his hand and he rested it on the side table."Although I'd love to have you tied and gagged this is not the way I'
Hunter"Where is Aria? Where have you taken her? You fucking bastard!""Ugh! Why are you shouting," He groaned, "What is wrong with you and your mate, huh? You both keep shouting like mad dogs.""Shut up, motherfucker. What do you think of yourself? Trust me, the moment I see you, I am going to kill you." I growled."Sorry my friend, I can't trust you on that." His vicious laughter sounded through the phone, "There are two reasons, first there are close to zero chances that you'll reach your mate, second within only fifteen minutes the rouges who are all around your pack are going finalize the attack and before you holler up with your overconfidence, let me tell you they are not at all the ordinary rouges you have ever come across. They are filled with hunger and vengeance, and the blood and flesh of your and Deadcrest packs' members are going to quench their thirst."I became hyperaware of the entire situation.The dismay for the pack's safety stirred awake within me along with the c
AriaWhen Knight hung up on his call with Hunter, at first I did not have any idea what was I going to do and what was going to be Hunter's decision when Knight intentionally put him in the middle of such a dilemma. Knight has no intentions to kill, he has told me by himself even though his intentions were far worse than killing me.Knight's agendas were so vicious and tricky. It was impossible to learn what was going to be his next move going to be.And that was why I did not want Hunter to reach here. Yes, I did not care or give a damn about what was going to be my state but I did not want my mate to get hurt or injured. Only because of that, I tried to send Hunter a signal to stop him from trying to reach where I was, taking Sierra's help to convey the message.I still had no idea if I had succeeded in doing that because Hunter's mark on me was still fresh and raw. But at the end of my attempts, I began badly regretting my decision.I did not know how that signal went, I did not ha
HunterKnight was smart enough to choose to build his mansion in the middle of the forest, but not enough to choose a forest that did not have only a slight distance of a few hundred miles like this one had.Once I entered the forest, using the mate bond to track where Aria exactly was. I became aware of the fact that Knight was not that confident about how he sounded on the phone because on every corner he kept rouges as the guards to prevent me from reaching his mansion.However, I did not let his arrangements succeed because I tore down every one of the routes into pieces just like I had told him. I knew my Aria was with him, captured by that son of a bitch and I needed to get her out at any cost. I wanted to rescue her as fast as possible before he could hurt her. I did not want to lose her.And I was like a ravenous animal who had no mercy left inside of him. I had forgotten everything, the only thing that was in my mind was that I needed to save my mate before that monster could
Aria"Hunter..." His name fell off my lips before I even knew it."I see...so your mate's here." He spoke, lowly, "Too bad he has invited his own death.""Or maybe, it's you who's going to die."He laughed, looking at me in disbelief, "You really think so? Guess, you can comfort yourself by saying that but for now, my beta and gamma are enough to take care of your mate since after defeating all the rouges I put to guard, it's impossible for him to defeat them." "You are really a victim of the disease that destroys people, and you know what it is? It's your fucking overconfidence." I spat."But as far as I can see it's you and your mate who are going through the demolition," He said raising one of his eyebrows, "Anyways, let's see what's your mate doing downstairs...has he died yet or not, perhaps—" A loud growl of Hunter buzzed throughout the mansion once again causing Knight to stop in the midway of his sentence."Or maybe, he just killed your dear companions." It was my turn to ra
Aria"Sorry, beloved," Knight whispered before he pulled the knife out and thrust it into my stomach once again, "Revenge is more important to me than possession, but don't worry..." he once again pulled out the sharp weapon and insert it into the same place with double force, "Once I kill your mate, I'll save you because I have plenty of things I haven't done with you yet." He finally withdrew the knife and let go of me; The imbalance left me stumbling a few steps backward.My hands moved to press onto the wound. The blood endlessly gushed out it, covering my hand and dripping down to the floor, the pain was unlike anything. Everything in front of my eyes went blank for a second and I found myself falling to the ground.But my body did not end up colliding against the floor— Before I could fall to the ground, Hunter caught me in his arms."Aria..." He began hesitating, his eyes wide in horror and hands vigorously shaking as he watched the blood gush out of the deep wound continuous
AriaI did not know where I was. All I could see was darkness and darkness; Nothing other than that.Only one question that rose in my mind was—Was I alive or dead?However, my questions went answered and unanswered at the same time when I felt someone's presence beside me. It could be just a hallucination or it could simply mean nothing.But then I felt someone's touch that sent bolts of electricity to my whole body. Because of the chaos of thoughts, at first, I could not recognize the feeling but then once I felt the scintillas spreading throughout my body, I figured out that these were the sparks of the mate bond.The weight on the eyelids that kept me unable to open my eyes slowly vanished, and I fought the weakness to open them. It took me a few seconds before I finally managed to open them.Glaring sun rays hit my eyes, forcing me to rapidly close them once again. A small groan left my mouth automatically and I shifted a bit to avoid the light, lifting my aching arm to cover my
Aria"As far as I knew, wedding nights were supposed to be super romantic," I fought my giggle when he aggressively opened my wedding dress letting it fall on the floor before he hastily moved on to unclipping my bra."So what does this seem to you? Unromantic?" He rose one of his eyebrows as he ripped open my panties and the sound broke through the not-so-existing silence in the room."No, but you are acting like a hungry animal," A chuckle finally left my mouth.Suddenly with one swift yank, Hunter pulled me towards him so that my naked chest come colliding against his one. Goosebumps raked my body and heat entrenched into my skin."You are right because I am starving," His growl alone made the wetness gather between my thighs.He picked me up by my thighs and hooked my legs around his hips, slipping my arms around his neck to keep myself steady."And now that my prey is right in front of me, I am not going to hold back anything," He put me down on the bed, hovering over me and he w
