View MoreSamantha's POV:The woman and her kid We met at the restaurant ,made me think about kids. And thinking about kids made me think about names. I always adored the name Nick. For a boy of course, for a girl maybe Kayla. The dream was to have two kids, or no kids at all.I never wanted to go through the pain of birth. People die from giving birth. Not until recently, the idea of actually parenting a kid, sounded sweet. Genelia told me that birth is only temporary, it ends. I remember our conversation exactly."What do you mean you don't want kids?" She looks at me with a glint of astonishment in her eyes."It's not like that! I mean, sure kids would be great, but, having to birth a kid won't be." I explain to her. Genelia still looks like she's about to shake me until I want to birth a child. "Your parents did." Genelia argues. "And I love them for it, but I'm still open for adoption." Genelia shakes her head and me and continues to paint her nails . Genelia and I don't talk about it fo
Samantha's POV:I open my eyes. They're instantly blinded by the silk curtain being wide open, welcoming in the morning sun. This is my favorite part of the morning, when you first wake up. Who knows what adventure the day holds?"Keep your head up! Do you think that you'll know where to punch if you're not looking?" Alpha Hughes yells. Just like the day before, we're training. And he isn't going easy on me, either. My tank top kept falling off of my shoulder so, I am constantly fixing it. "Either take the shirt off or don't fix it." He states. The other men around me heard him and every one of them that don't have mates, stare. I decided it'd be best for me to keep it on.Ten minutes later and we stop. Someone comes up to Alpha Hughes and pulls him away from me. I start to feel awkward as I'm standing here."I heard Alpha Hughes killed three guys just for talking to her.""Yeah! One of them actually tried to rape her.""Should we go talk to her?""Nah, it's best if we stay away.""S
We finally arrive at around six o'clock. Alpha Hughes has hidden weapons all over him incase the witches try something. We walk over to a small cabin. A teenage lady sits on her porch. "Jack Hughes? Surprise, Surprise!" I assume she's Elizabeth. "Hello, Clara, is Elizabeth here?" Alpha Hughes questions. "She's in the backyard playing. I'll show you to her." Clara answers and guides us.Elizabeth's a lot younger than I assumed. "What do you want Jack?" Elizabeth stands tall. "This is my mate, Samantha." All eyes are on me. Kind of like breakfast this morning. Elizabeth examines me. She notices the bruises. "How's the bruise on your side?" She asks. I furrow my eyebrows. "I can see through your shirt and by the look on Jack's face you didn't tell him." Elizabeth smirks. Alpha Hughes grabs my arms and pulls me into his chest."You lied to me?" Alpha Hughes sneers. I contemplate talking and in the end the best thing for me to do is nod, which I do. "Don't talk at all." He instructs.His w
Emily makes sure that the driver doesn't tell Alpha Hughes about the visit. Goddess knows he'll be in as much trouble as me. The pack house is in view in about twenty minutes of driving. When we get out of the town car Emily reminds me not to tell Alpha Hughes. Then I remember my question for her. "Do you know anyone named Michael?"Ouch.Someone pushes me against a wall. I can tell by the scent it's Alpha Hughes. "Samantha, what do you know about Michael?" His deep voice presses against my neck. "U-Um, I don't know anything. He j-just told me to t-tell you he-he says hello." I choke out. Alpha Hughes stares me in the eyes. "What did you tell him?" I don't answer. "WHAT DID YOU TELL HIM?" He yells. "I didn't tell him anything, he read my thoughts.""What the hell were you thinking?"For a long time I try to string the right words together. But miserably fail and end up with a mess of words. "I-I, uh, um, well, u-uh-" Alpha Hughes stops my stuttering. "Go to my room. Now!" And I due as
The next morning I realize that Alpha Hughes is still in bed. I take this opportunity to study his facial features more thoroughly. Like his simple beardwhich he never shaves . His eyebrows are scrunched even in his sleep, it’s as if he’s dreaming of killing someone . His skin is flawless. In all honesty, he’s handsome. But how can someone so perfect, be a murderer?I decide that even if I do absolutely nothing today, I should still put on some clothes. I don’t feel like showering this morning, so I’ll do it tonight. As I made my way to my closet I stop at the sound of Alpha Hughes’s voice.“What are you doing? "He questions. I turn to face him.“I just thought I sh-should get d-dressed, Alpha.”I inform. “Okay, but don’t look slutty again. We’re having breakfast with my Beta. ”I nod and go to my closet.Normally, Emily will be picking out my clothes, but due to the current situation she isn’t. I, of course, have no idea what to wear. Emily always mutters something when she chooses my
Samantha's POV:The day goes by slowly, without a single checkup from Emily. I can't believe she didn't come to see me. It's not like she follows Alpha Hughes' rules anyway. Then around six pm, Alpha Hughes comes by again with Emily. I can feel the smile lift on my face. "I'm introducing you to the pack today. Emily if you pull anything. I swear you're gone." He has a tight hold on her wrists. I can see a bruise start to form.We're in my closet and she's going through all the possible outfits. "You don't want to look trashy, but you also don't want to look like you're trying too hard." She whispers to herself. Then she gasps. Whatever it is I'm wearing tonight, Emily finds it.The outfit is actually so me. I mean, my own mother doesn't even know what I like. And I've known Emily for about three days and she's like my best friend. Best friend. Genelia! Oh my gosh, I can't believe that I haven't thought about her that much. But now that I am, I miss her so much. I wonder how she's doin
The dungeons are cold, and I can feel the silence down through my bones. A drop of water keeps falling from a nearby pipe. It seems to be the only water source down here. "What's a pretty girl like you doing down here?" I hear a voice. The voice sounded like a snake, mysterious and cold. "W-Who are you?" I get up. "Oh no, darling, that won't matter, won't matter at all." A female voice says this time. "St-Stay away from me!" Then hands grab at my ankles and pull me down.Whispering surrounds me and I feel as if I'm going crazy."Who's there?" I try to crawl, but hands keep me down. "Sh, child! They'll hear you!" Snake shushes. Who's he? What's going on? "L-Leave me alone!" I grab at where the voices come from. I end up touching a beard. A small scream falls flat from my mouth. "I thought we told you to hush child." A cold harsh hand hits my face.More whispering and I actually feel crazy. "S-Stop talking!" I join in on the whispering involuntarily. I can see their eyes, wide and tired
Alpha Hughes paces around his room for a while, I don't attempt to say anything. "You think I'm a monster?" His eyes were wild. I don't say anything, silence offers enough answers. "Perfect, perfect, fucking perfect!" He yells. Alpha Hughes heads over to the nearest wall and punches it. The punch is loud and hard, so loud I nearly jump. I scream instead. Alpha Hughes looks at me one last time, his eyes black. Then he bursts out of the room.After his outburst, I change. I also take it upon myself to do a little exploring. Alpha Hughes obviously isn't in the pack house because everything seems calm. I walk up to a door and I hear something. "Ah, Philip!" Oh my gosh, did I just hear...?"Faster! Faster!" I need to get out of here. I rush around until I no long know where I am."Nice legs." I hear a deep voice say. My body tenses and I feel vulnerable. "I've never seen you around here before." The boy whispers in my ear. "Do you n-need something?" I try to sound confident and miserably f
Samantha's POV:Why am I thinking about this so much? Sure, Alpha Hughes is my mate, but there's no love. Right? No! No of course not! He's a killer, a murderer. He has no mercy. After I clear up my mind, I head to my closet where all of my new clothes were perfectly displayed. What should I wear?I have all these new clothes. There are too many choices for me to choose just one. But somehow I did. When I picked out the outfit, the first thing I thought about was how proud Emily would be of me. But before I could get into the outfit, I have to take a shower.Even though I had one this morning, I've done a surprising amount of sweating today. This Florida weather isn't being nice to me. The dress I am wearing makes me feel so confident. Who knew that clothes could have such an affect on my attitude? But they do."Knock knock!" I hear the infamous Emily say before opening the door. A small gasp escapes my lips as she barges in."Chill, Samantha. I knew you weren't naked! Everyone's wait
