Aurora POV

I knew I was playing a dangerous game; there was every chance Simon would see straight through my manipulation. I just hoped the fact my body was naturally responding to his touch and presence sold the story, no matter how dirty it made me feel!

We had been standing under the shower spray for a few minutes, and I had allowed his fingers to roam over my hips and up the planes of my back without a word. I was enjoying the shower and couldn't believe how something as simple as a shower felt so damn amazing! Leaning my head back, I took deep gulps of the water, letting it heal my tight throat and fill my empty belly.

"So, how long have you been working for Luke?" I asked, marvelling at how much better I felt already. Keeping my back to Simon, I arched a brow, feeling his hands pause in their pursuit of my curves.

"I don't work for him!" He snapped, gripping my hips and pulling me back into his muscular chest, drawing a groan from my lips.

"But he is your boss?" I asked

Teasing sexual assault for chapters and chapters on end is pretty disturbing.the topic comes across as a meaningless joke the way you handle it. The chapter orders are all over the place. Author revels in unfounded complexity that renders her book senseless

    Alec POV"Are you out of your damn mind?" I roared as Hugo threw the phone onto the table in frustration, my mind running a million miles an hour. I knew he was angry at how things had gone down with Maxwell being called in, but I knew what I was doing, and I shouldn't have to explain it! I am the fucking Alpha!"You always were rash! But fuck!" I screamed, running my hand through my hair. "It is usually just your head on the line! But Now!! Your impulsiveness might have just cost us our only chance at getting her home! Without fucking bloodshed!" I bellowed, grabbing the glass off the side and lunging it across the room. "What's wrong with bloodshed?" Hugo asked casually, something passing between him and Jason that made my blood boil. He was up to something, and I - his Alpha was being left out of the loop. "There is a time and a place for it!" Maxwell interjected, snapping my head around to look at him, not appreciating his input."Yeah, like now... or when your mate and mother o

    Aurora POVWaking up slowly to the distant sound of chatter, I opened my eyes, ignoring the thumping behind my eyes, to see I was back in the room I had occupied for the last god knows how long but no longer chained to the radiator. The plush feeling of warmth and comfort under my back told me I was on the bed, and the ache in my arms and legs alerted me to the fact I was restrained. Quietly attempting to pull my legs, I felt fear prickle the back of my neck; realising I was tied at each ankle, I knew I would find each arm stretched in place, too. 'Great!' I muttered inwardly sulkily."Really?" I heard Ava's voice rattle through my head, confused."Ava!" I gasped, feeling the overwhelming sense of hopelessness evaporate. "Shit, am I glad to hear your voice!" I groaned. "Aww love ya too, Aurora!" She chimed with a slight chuckle. I could sense she wasn't at full power, but anything was better than nothing right now. "Last thing I remember is... the car park... How long have I been

    Hugo POVNever in my life had I been rendered speechless; I always had something to say and felt every bastard within earshot needed to hear what that was, but standing in the doorway to a filthy room that stank of piss and rotten flesh, it was like I had never been taught a single word! My eyes locked on the tiny form of Aurora, naked apart from the bruises that dressed her skin most in different stages of healing; she looked like she hadn't eaten a meal this whole time. Clenching my fists at my side, hearing her ask if the males were dead, the hope in her frail voice broke me, and it took every part of me not to walk back down those stairs and remove the fuckers head and throw them at her feet as an apology.The fact she had been left to suffer this long because of my actions enraged me. Jason had tried to get me to see that none of this was my fault on the journey down here, but he hadn't seen the shit I had pulled recently. This, unquestionably, was a consequence of my actions.

    Alec POV"17:07 Two minutes later than when you last checked the damn thing!" Maxwell snorted from across the room. Covering my watch back up and straightening my suit, I continued to walk around the room. I had been pacing for hours. I understood and supported what Hugo had done, but it didn't make me any less nervous. The more I think about it, the more I realise how selfless the move was on his part. If this goes tits up, and there was every chance it would. He would be blamed, and he alone would face the consequences. "Will you just sit down!" Maxwell snapped, closing the book he was reading. Ignoring him again and continued to pace, Hugo's warning of Maxwell still lingered in the back of my mind, and I was itching to find out what the smug bastard was up to, but there was a time and place for that challenge, and it was now when my brother and beta was off hunting our girl. "I get it, I do!" Maxwell started to say, rolling my eyes as I looked out of the window. I let him drone o

    Aurora POVHearing the distant sound of people arguing, my eyes flew open; sitting bolt upright, I felt fear grip my chest, tightening my lungs in its deadly vice. "Luke?" I gasped nervously, looking around the dimly lit room. "Hey, hey! It's OK, Aurora." I heard Hugo whisper from beside me, letting out a shaky breath. My lungs relaxed, allowing my lungs to return to normal. "The shouting?" I whispered cautiously, my eyes locked on Hugo's dark blue orbs. "Just the TV!" He explained, his cautious eyes observing me, but their softness had me a little on edge. I sucked down the unease and followed his hand as it picked up a TV controller and pointed it to the other side of the room, muting the TV. Narrowing my eyes on the room, I looked around, confused at my new surroundings. It felt like just moments ago, I was in the back of a rental. Now I was dressed in oversized sweatpants and a fresh T-shirt. "Did you get me changed?" I asked, chewing the side of my lip, feeling a little unco

    Aurora POV Guilt and shame washed over me at the unexpected feelings I had coursing through my body; I had just spent weeks locked up and treated like dirt by males whose only purpose for me was to humiliate and torture me. Now I had been freed from their sleazy hold, and here I was with another male, Aroused and flirting my way through our time together! Seriously, what was wrong with me? This man had spent his whole life treating me like crap! Yet all I could think of was how good it would feel to have those hands working on a different part of my body. It didn't help that the look in his eyes told me that he was OK with whatever situation I was toying with if that was what I wanted, and fuck it was! But I couldn't! I wouldn't! "Why not?" Ava asked sheepishly, taking me by surprise. "Who knows what things will be like when we land.. given the chaos we left behind! Alec might not be as understanding as Hugo! After all, there is a reason he wasn't at Hugo's side to rescue us!" S

    Alec POVSitting on the edge of the custom-made bed I had spent a small fortune on, I looked around at the room; it was beautiful, fit for royalty. The bed alone was exquisite, built into the wall, made of dark blue crushed velvet, with soft purple sheets; the walls surrounding it had carvings sprayed in gold that told the story of our pack and its heritage. The room's high ceilings and rich blues and purples gave it an exotic vibe I loved. "She will love it!" Wrath informed me."I hope so!" I admitted, looking around. "Do you think it's too much?" I asked nervously."A little, but it's not like Aurora is a simple girl!" He offered in a bid to reassure me. I had never made such a grand gesture before, but I wanted Aurora to be comfortable here. Hugo and I started this project weeks ago, after we had cleared out her room at Reds and brought all her things over here. It had proved to be a challenge, given her flatmate was among those convinced Hugo and I were responsible for Aurora's d

    Aurora POV "Will you lower your damn voice!" I heard Hugo grunt, a smile pulling to my lips, feeling his hands tighten around me protectively. "I didn't say anything!" I moaned, opening my eyes to see him looking down at me with that smile that made my body flush, but something darker lingered in his eyes. "Now, look at what you have done! You have woken her up! " He moaned, his eyes shooting across the room; following his line of sight, I sucked in a breath seeing a pair of baby blues locked on me, filled with pity and anger. "Awesome! Just how every girl wants a male to look at her!" I sighed to Ava, who was deadly silent in the depths of my mind. "Aurora, as much as I love the feeling of your nails digging into my skin, I kinda love this shirt!" Hugo teased, nodding to where I had been, clenching his shoulder unconsciously. "Sorry!" I whispered, nodding to him, "Can you put me down, please!" I asked, my eyes drifting back to Alec, who looked like he had seen a ghost. With

I soothed myself repeatedly, feeling his hands move up my calves and pull her knees up. I kept my eyes fixed on the ceiling and attempted to will myself out of my body. I was brought back to cold reality when I felt hot breath on my inner thigh followed by his hot tongue, licking. I hadn't realised that I had yelped until he told me to calm down. "C..c..can we just get this o..over with. Please," I stammered, my throat dry. Maxwell lifted his head up and looked at me over my body, his eyes alive with a fire I didn't feel comfortable with. "You don't want me to enter you dry, do you?" With that, he reached down between my parted thighs and cupped my mound. "Or are you already wet?" My mouth desperate for saliva, I simply shook my head in answer. "Then I need to make you a little wet, so I don't hurt either of us. I could spit on the e

Maxwell smirked, his lips thin and tight as he stared at me with an evilness that made me shiver unintentionally. Looking over at Violet, my stomach dropped, seeing the sick smile plastered on her lips. "You're enjoying this!" I growled, and her lips pulled into an even wider smile. "Seeing the bitch that caused absolute chaos get her comeuppance? Absolutely!" She snarled nastily. Looking back at Maxwell, I shook my head of the tears I felt falling from my eyes, hoping to play on his emotions. "I want a blowjob and a fuck!" He declared unashamedly. There it was- His terms! I knew he would have wanted something like this, but hearing him say it made everything feel much more serious and real! As if sitting on a bed surrounded by my own vomit and self-hatred as one of the men I loved hung from chains on the TV with his back ri

    Aurora POVStretching out across the softest of beds, my body ached almost as severely as my head throbbed. Opening my eyes slowly, I allowed them to adjust to the bright lights of the sterile room. I was alone, and judging by the goose pimples that had broken out along my stomach, I was naked. "Ava?" I called out to my wolf, feeling alone inside my own head."Ava?" I asked again as I lay back on the plush mattress. I sighed as I realised whatever was making me groggy, was also affecting my wolf.Closing my eyes as I rubbed at my temples and tried to recall where I was or how I had gotten here, but I came up blank, except for the image of my reflection and chains. Something that seemed oddly familiar yet foreign to me. "A baby changes everything!" I heard a female voice snap from somewhere close by. Moving my legs slowly, not wanting to make any noise, I pushed off the bed. Regretting it the second my legs touched the floor, they felt hollow and utterly useless. Gripping the nearby

    Alec POVWe continued the next few hours in silence until we reached large gates that made ours look like child's play. I watched Jason's eyes gloss over as he communicated with his pack, and the doors opened. "Very fancy!" James scoffed as we followed the winding trail up to a large gothic-inspired castle that wrapped around acres of land. He wasn't wrong, this place was fancy! Which made no sense; why would Maxwell go after my pack when he had something so grand at home? Parking outside the entrance, I took a deep breath and hoped we would leave here with the answers we all needed. "Mother!" Jason beamed as a middle-aged woman stepped from the doors, her arms wide as they enveloped him. Her tanned skin and dark hair flowed freely in the light wind as her gigantic son swallowed her tiny frame in a bear hug. A smile split my face, seeing him scoop her up and spin her around, hugging her tightly, not caring that we all stood around watching. "Mother, meet Alpha Azure.." I offer a cu

    Alec POV"How can it have been ten days, and we are still no closer to finding my brother and wife!" I roared, slamming my fist into a nearby wall, the plasterboard shattering under the force, causing rubble to slide down the wall and coat my hands. "Ex-wife!" James corrected me. The fucker was truly starting to get on my nerves, but I ignored him, reminding myself that he was my oldest friend and instead looked at the destruction I had caused with a sigh. It wasn't the first hole I had made in the walls of my office over the last few days, and I doubt it would be the last. Frustration ate at me with each passing day, knowing that Aurora and Hugo were slipping further and further from me. Luke had given us a name: Maxwell! It didn't take much to get information from the pair once Jason heard his father's name slip from our prisoner's mouth. I had thought James was brutal when it came to torture, but it seemed I had underestimated Jason entirely. We now knew Maxwell headed the traf

    Hugo POV--Ten days later--"How much wolfsbane did you give him?" I heard Violet's panicked voice bounce around the bare walls of my prison cell. I fought the urge to smile. I had purposely remained still all day and worked to slow my breathing right down. Even when the bastard took that whip to my back again to wake me, I refused to make a sound; I just let my body rock back and forth from the impact. It wasn't easy, when all I wanted to do was rip their inners out through their nostrils. But there was more at stake than revenge! I daren't risk a glance at the blacked glass panel, knowing whatever I saw through that window may push me over the edge and ruin my plan. Over the last ten days I had watched them pull enough fingernails and toenails off Aurora to destroy that particular method of torture for me. The joy he took in stripping her naked to humiliate her and aggravate me in any other circumstances would have led to me removing his dead, dull eyes; lucky for him, the chains k

    Alec POV "You look like shit!" I snorted, looking into the filthy cell that held the objects of my anger at this point in time."They don't smell much better!" James gagged mockingly, making me chuckle."Let's change that!" I smirked. Opening their cell, I walked in with James close by, both of us stepping over the shit and discarded clothes. Usually, I avoided such filth. My suits cost more than most people earn in a year, and until Aurora arrived, my appearance was the only thing that gave me joy. "Do you remember that time your father kept those guys down here so long he forgot about them?" James asked, unlocking the chains behind the pair, the heavy metal clinking as it hit the floor, the sound making our human guest in front of James jump. Like the pussy he was!"The whole packhouse stunk of rotten eggs, but we couldn't work out why until we came down here to do something and found them in a cell." He laughed, gripping the human male by his hair; he pulled him from the cell wit

    Alec POVStaring at the pyres as the flames consumed our dead and carried them off, I felt my jaw ache from how tightly I had it clenched. My mind was swirling with the events of the last few hours. It felt surreal that I was currently saying goodbye to a handful of my pack members after a demonic attack on my pack. I had heard of these kinds of things happening occasionally throughout history, but never would I have thought that we would be on the receiving end of it. "Here, man." A deeply set voice offered from beside me, placing a cell phone in my hand. "It's all set up, the same number as before, just in case your brother reaches out." James remarked, handing me an opened bottle of beer with a nod."I don't want this!" "I never said you did, but fuck knows you need it. You are giving off mega approach me and die vibes!" He scoffed, crossing his arms over his chest as he watched the flames rise dramatically, crackling through the air. "You approached!" I shrugged, ignoring his c

    Hugo POVI had never been squeamish when it came to blood, but I guess when you spend a large part of your life shifting into a werewolf or torturing those who displease you, it made no sense to be scared of the stuff. I couldn't exactly be the Beta if I passed out every time I got a damn paper cut. But something about the way I was watching blood slide down Aurora's porcelain throat as she paled had me feeling weak-kneed and sick to my stomach. Her words would haunt me for as long as I lived, and I hoped that wouldn't be long because the idea of a world without her in it again was too unfathomable to bear. Plus, having to tell Alec I had let her get killed broke my heart just as much as watching her face slowly pale. Those rosy cheeks turned purple as her eyes closed; I could only imagine the way her heart pumped viciously, trying to get blood around her body for this fucker to drain it. Her arms seemed to relax into the chains, and her body slumped forward; he was killing her; that
