His Rejected Slave 71
LORD DWAYNE"This is a ruthless world, and one must be ruthless to cope with it."Charlie Chaplin.He was my best and most trusted lieutenant. He could go through brick walls for me, not minding if he put his life on the line in the process. No one else knew half the things he knew about me, not even Declan or Deforest. Maybe I let him know more than he should have known.If I could put it better, I would say my darkness laid bare before him.So you can understand why it was the toughest decision I have ever taken as an alpha. This was even tougher than passing the judgment on my wife and having her face the execution as I watched. But I had to do what I had to do. He had broken the code, and no one was bigger than it…Okay, maybe I was!I may not have been so sure about what he had done, but his displays had sold him out. It felt he was up to something, something different from the path we had always walked on."Killing him on the night of the dark moon does not represent the best d

DECLAN"Here is my judgment," he said.The moment I heard him say that, I knew I could not hold it anymore.Duncan had done a good job holding me from fighting back while we watched him nearly torture Alioski to death."Come on, mate, you gotta hold it together. You do not want to crash the plan," he had said to me."The plan?," I asked, looking at him."Sorry I didn't tell you, I have a plan on how we can take down the alpha. I have no fucking idea if it's gonna work, but it doesn't require much risk, at least." He went ahead to tell me what his plan was. "I hope it works," he said at the end."How the fuck did you know the alpha is not my father?," I whispered into his ear, careful not to be heard."Not every secret dies as one. Besides, I overheard the…"Just as he continued speaking, the alpha got ready to pass his judgment. I knew I had to crash the plan."No!," I shouted from where I was, not letting him say the words, which, when spoken, were irreversible."What the fuck did yo

DEFOREST"Father, is it true!," I asked, upset. I had barged into his chamber while he banged one of the maids. How could he even care so much about sex after he had set the pack on fire."It is like a pack of candies delivered in one package. That's how I cool off, especially when I'm angry," he had once told me the day I asked him why sex mattered so much to him. It had become a must do for him on a daily basis."Get out!," I yelled at the maid."She goes nowhere. Whatever you have to say to me, say it here and now. Be quick about it, for I can't afford to keep my stick waiting much longer," he said."Father, I need to speak to you alone, please. This is very important to me, and I wouldn't want a third person listening, please.""Fine!," he reluctantly said. "Leave us," he said to the maid. "Don't forget to be at my service tonight," he shouted behind her. Turning to me, he said, "It better be worth it.""Father, what happened back there?," I asked, trying to keep my voice down, ev

"Just stop!," I said again."Don't tell me to fucking stop!," he roared back."Can't you see!? I did all that just because I wanted to see you," I said, pointing to the swordsmen who had no idea what was happening."I see nothing!," he responded, defiant. "I do not care what you had to do! I don't fucking care!. You're not different from your father, the ruthless alpha. He can never be less than what he is; you will be worse! More ruthless!""Brother!""No, don't you ever call me that again. I am not your brother, and will never be! Now, if you have come for my head, make it quick, because if I ever get away, I will not hesitate to come for yours, I swear on my father's blood.""What keeps us is bigger than what will break us," I said, reminding him what he had told me in the past. "Does it not count for something?.""No! I said that to a monster who carries the blood of the man who murdered my parents and took what was mine. I promise, if I get out, you will all pay for what you've d

JASONPain is something you carry, just like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It's in all you carry. That's what matters.Whoever said that certainly did have me in mind; he had envisaged my misery.Everything that could have gone wrong had put on a show before me. It had a been horrendous, I don't even know if that's the right word that best describes it, couple of days for me, more like the horror movies that had become bread and butter for me.I had made the tough decision to leave Atlanta following the murder of my entire family."Where are you leaving for?," Costa asked me, worried about my safety."I don't know," I responded. I really didn't know about my next destination, but I was determined to leave a city that had taken everything but me from me.And then, he said, "I may not say it the way I should, but I want you to know that you are a gift I am grateful for. We may have spent just a little time together, but it's like a hundred years already. You

"Jason, you are my buddy, and I would not wanna lose you to that idiot over some girl. Besides, there are so many Chicago babies out there. You can choose any one, and I promise to help you get her pants down with you," Trusty kept on trying to convince me that night."Mate, this has got nothing to do with going pants down with Kerr. Okay, I've got to tell you a story. It's about Kianna.""You already told me about her," he quickly cut in, cutting a frustrated figure."Yeah, but there was something I didn't tell you.""You were in love with her. I guess that's it, or is there more you haven't told me?," he sarcastically asked. He didn't look interested."Fine, you got me on that." I didn't think I had the strength to prove to him that I really cared about Kerr, since he was more concerned about Green's reaction. "I got to go, it's bed time already," I said to him as I stood up to leave for my room. I just wanted to get away from him."Jason," he quickly said, halting my exit. I stood

DECLANShe still had not said a word to me, and nothing broke me more than her silence. Even in our cells, I had made several attempts to speak with her, but she wouldn't respond to me.Finally, she broke her silence."I should never have left you alone at the underground. I'm sorry; I'm sorry I couldn't be there for you when that wolf came for you," I had earlier said to her."I'm sorry, too," she calmly said."What did you say?," I asked, not sure I had heard her."I thought you were one of them; I thought the blood of the man who had killed my parents and pack flowed through you. I had no idea we had so much in common.""I understand, Kianna," I said, relieved. "Just like you, I thought I belonged to him. I only found out the day Alioski sent for me. He killed my parents, too.""I want revenge!," she sharply said. "I wanna die fighting, knowing that I put an end to the life of Lord Dwayne and everyone who fought on his side that night! I don't fucking care whose blood is spilled!"

KERRCall it madness, but I call it…Well, I don't know!Sometimes, love makes us scared.Davies had called it quits with me less than one week after the incident."I can't take it anymore," he had said to me. "Go where your heart belongs," he added.I couldn't blame him; it was all my fault. I had put him at that spot. My heart belongs elsewhere, it belongs to the one who could make me laugh all day."Kerr, we should host an all girls party when you return. His is a glorious exit," Chloe said when I told her and Russo. I had called them on Facetime because I could no longer bear keeping everything to myself."I am proud of you, girl," Russo added. The girls were clearly excited. Well, that was until they heard the second part of the story."I think I'm in love with my father's secretary," I let it out."Girl!," Chloe exclaimed, taken aback. "How!? How is that even possible!?""That must be some joke," Russo added. "I know she's just trying to get a reaction from us.
