VALERIE

The smile laced against my face vanished when I suspected that I was suspended in the air. My heart raced in anger when I noticed that my body was being dragged up and not down.

I wrestled with whatever strange force that was, but unfortunately, I didn't win. My body dropped from the railings and back to the rooftop.

I groaned loudly and hit my hand on the floor in rage, cursing whatever stopped me from dying.

“Are you okay, Miss?" A melodic voice whispered into my ear and forced me to raise my head

I glared at the handsome face that stared worriedly at me.

“Are you trying to kill yourself?" He asked in a calm voice.

“Are you so dumb that you didn't notice that?" I snapped at him.

His eyes widened and he was taken aback by my response. His lips parted and slammed shut and he shook his head, running his eyes over my body.

“Why don't you stop running away from your troubles and fight them instead, that will make you less weak,” a smirk tugged onto the corner of his li

    VALERIE “Be careful," Bianca muttered, her voice filled with concern as she watched me limp towards the bathroom. I got to the door and sighed, letting the tears drop out as much as they wanted. The memories came rushing in, playing with my mind. I parted my lips and broke into cries, dropping to the ground. Not only my pussy was hurt, my heart was hurt as well. I wished that I hadn't listened to Damion, I wished I had brushed his words aside and carried on with committing suicide Perhaps, if I had died, I wouldn't have gone through the hell I went through last night. It seemed like the torture for each night doubled over the other. “This is worse than death," I muttered in a quivering voice as I tried to suppress the pain that throbbed between my legs. Bianca rubbed her palm on my back, whimpering. “This is all my fault–" “No, it's not. I blame the moon goddess for giving me such a terrible fate," I muttered, my throat tightening. I glanced at the wounds they inflicted o

    VALERIE It felt like the world stopped rotating when our lips met. His lips tasted like coffee, and I couldn't help but want to get drowned in it. I clasped my hands around his neck, totally forgetting the reason why I did it. Damion moaned and grabbed my waist, slamming my body against his. My senses returned and I broke the kiss. We stared into the eyes of each other, breathing heavily and reminiscing on what just happened between us.“I… I…" I stuttered, too dumbstruck to say a word.Damion smiled and let go of my waist, helping me stand upright.“I loved it," he said with a grin on his face.I blushed and secretly looked across to the window. My heart skipped when I saw Killian still standing there, staring blankly at me.I wanted to tear my gaze away, but something that I couldn't understand pushed me to maintain awkward eye contact, neither blinking nor filled with fear.He moved away from the window and disappeared into the room, closing the shutter.“Did you do that…" Damion

I slipped out of Killian's grip and bowed low to the ground.She took a few steps towards us, anger laced against her face.“You…" she paused and swerved her head in another direction.“Isn't that Damion?” She gasped, alarm laced in her voice.The servants surrounding her rushed towards Damion who was unconscious."Take him to the Pack's doctor, hurry!” She growled, waving the servants away.She swerved around and glared at me, shaking her accusing fingers.“What have you done to him?" She growled, burning me alive with her blazing eyes.“It's him," I said, pointing at Killian.Her brows snapped up in disbelief, and she looked at Killian, who grunted and looked away, less concerned.“I tried to stop him but he wouldn't listen, he–”"Be quiet!” The Luna growled, raising her hand in the air.My heart shrank in despair and I bit my lips, looking at Killian with haughty eyes.Killian chuckled and furrowed his brows, narrowing his eyes at me.“Get ou

    VALERIE My jaws dropped and I stared at the Luna in disbelief.“Huh?" I whispered, wishing she would repeat what she said, but she didn't. Instead, she scowled at me and got up from the throne.As she sauntered towards the doors, she paused but didn't turn around.“You have until tomorrow morning," she said, confirming her previous words.I gasped out and clasped my hand against my mouth. I didn't dare plead with her as she left.“You heard what she said, right? You better leave immediately!" Adriana snarled with a triumphant smirk on her face.“Stop it, Adriana!" Arlene snapped and cast a sympathetic glance at me before dragging her sister off.The pain on my face slowly disappeared and my downcast face lit up. A large grin spread across my face and I chuckled loudly as happiness rippled through my body.The sound of a clap made me spin around. The smile grew wider at the sight of Damion.“You did it," he said, covering the distance between us.My heartbeat increased as I watched hi

    VALERIE It felt like my whole world crumbled the instant I saw them. “Are you leaving without our permission?" He asked, making chills break out in my body. He frowned deeply at my silence and gripped my chin, digging his fingers into my skin. “Didn't you promise never to step out of this Pack ever again, why are you putting your poor mother in danger?" My heart skipped as his words echoed in my head like a warning. “I… I…" I was too dumbstruck to say a word. He looked up, piercing Bianca with his eyes. Bianca shuddered and cringed back, her eyes filled with fear. “You helped her again, didn't you?" He growled, his eyes fixed on Bianca. Bianca shook her head, her lips trembled in mortification and she staggered back. Lucian let go of me and walked towards her with a clenched fist. I gasped out and gripped his hand, compelling him to stop. “No, she isn't at fault here. I was ordered to leave the Pack!" I screamed out. He craned his head backward and chuckled. “And who

    VALERIE I didn't want to believe it. I wished it wasn't what was on my mind. “I will protect you, I will make sure no one stops you from leaving this Pack,” his assuring words sent shivers down his spine. I was afraid that he would get into trouble, I knew Lucian and Killian wouldn't let his action slide just like that. “Damion!" Lucian's growl made the windows in the hall burst open. I shuddered in fear, not for my life but for the safety of Damion. I quickly pushed him away, and an alarm spread across my face. “No, Damion, please let it be," I muttered and Damion only scoffed stubbornly and faced Lucian with a frown on his face. “Let go of her hand!" He snapped. I looked down at my hands and realized that Lucian was still holding my wrist while Damion held the other. “Don't cross your limits, Damion, don't you dare!" Killian snapped and Damion faced him boldly. “Do your worst!" He growled in return. Killian clenched his fist and sprinted towards Damion. “Stop it!" The

    VALERIE I should have been scared at his arrival, but somehow I wasn't. Instead, I was furious for barging into my room unannounced. “The Luna Queen instructed you to stay away from me!" I snapped. He chuckled, slipping his hands into his pants pocket. “The Luna Queen?" He scoffed, and Arlene frowned but tried not to show it. “Have you forgotten what position I hold in the Pack? I am the strongest and highest member of the Blood Moon Pack, I am the Lycan king of the entire wolf kingdom!" He snapped, pride dancing in his gray eyes. I narrowed my eyes in disgust and scoffed to his surprise. “Is that why you're using your power to abuse those beneath you? That isn't power…" I paused, slammed my eyes shut, and, with a thumping heart, spat out the remaining words. “That is foolishness!" Gasps escaped from Arlene and Bianca and my feet froze as I awaited his reaction. I heard a low chuckle and that compelled me to open my eyes. My brows snapped up in surprise when I saw amuseme

    VALERIE The surprise on my face slowly melted away, replaced by a smirk.Michelle huffed and rubbed her red cheeks which must be burning.“Hey, woman! Watch it!” She snapped, her eyes filled with rage.My mom scoffed and poked her forehead, earning a shocked gasp from her."What are you going to do about that, huh? You're going to hit me too, right?” Mom snapped, and she flinched back, muttering inaudible words under her breath.She glared at my mom fearfully, backing away as she began to approach her.“Stay away from me, you maniac. I am trying so hard to stop myself from hurting you!" She barked, waving her hand at my mom.I could tell from the fire burning in my mom's eyes that she was more than outraged. She looked like someone ready to kill at any moment.To be honest, I loved that version of my mother, and I loved the way she was putting Michelle in her place.She was taking revenge on my behalf without realizing it. Even though Bianca was the real culprit behind the bruises on

    VALERIE I felt heavily burdened with guilt rather than anger after discovering that it was done by Michelle and not the beta. “Yes, I did it. What are you going to do about that?" She asked, tilting her head to the side. I huffed, tears gathering in my eyes. I was scared of talking because I was sure that I would break into tears if I should say a single word. The sorrow didn't sink in because she humiliated me, it sank in after I realized that I had accused the beta wrongly and had ruined my friendship with Bianca myself. My throat was tearing up and I was afraid that the tears would drop out any moment. I turned around and walked out of the garden, not minding if she still needed my services. I blindly ran up to my room and slammed the door shut, slipping down to the floor as I buried my face in my palm, weeping bitterly. Perhaps, if I had waited a bit longer, I wouldn't have hurt the Beta and Bianca as well. “Oh my, what have you done, Valerie Garrett?" I mutte

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Infuriation

    VALERIE “She pitied me?" I whispered to myself as I leaped across the empty corridor. I was quite grateful that people weren't present in the corridor to feed their eyes on me. I could still hear the girls’ mocking laughter and excited whispers in my head as I staggered away. If someone had told me that Bianca would be among those who would turn their back on me, I would never have believed such lies. But with what was displayed some seconds ago, I realized that no one is to be trusted, not even yourself. She was no different from Margaret. No, she was worse than her. She had been a pretender all along, all she had done was pity me, putting on some deceitful smile on her face to warm up my lonely, deceived heart. “Valerie!” Monica's call behind me stopped my feet from shuffling forward. I stood like a zombie, my body bent forward in a sickly manner. “You… forgot the plate of grapes,” she muttered and moved over to stand before me, a sympathetic look on her face. I took the pl

    VALERIE “What have I done?" Those were the words I muttered to myself as I stared at the spot where Bianca once stood. A part of me nudged me to go after her, but the guilt dwelling in me didn't let me take a step in her direction. I staggered back and sighed loudly before trudging back into the manor. With a heavy heart, I sauntered into the kitchen and stumbled into Monica. I wasn't afraid of her as I used to be. A large smile formed on her face and she left her minions to meet me by the door. “What are you doing here of all places?" She asked, folding her hand as she watched me. “I got into trouble,” I muttered and she turned up her lips in amusement. "Again?” She teased, and I nodded, worry etched against my face. “Can you get me a plate of grapes, please? I do not remember where the fruit section is,” I asked. She patted my shoulder, grinning widely. “Stay right here; I will be right back with your order," she muttered and disappeared into a corner of the kitchen. Wit

    VALERIE I quickly crept out of the corner and stood face-to-face with him. His head snapped back in shock and the anger which was visible on his face earlier disappeared.“Damion?" I whispered questioningly, getting more curious.He narrowed his eyes and walked away without saying a word to me.I stared at his receding figure and tilted my head, my eyes dimming in curiosity.“What are you doing over there?" Michelle's snap forced me back to reality.I turned swiftly and frowned, dragging my feet towards her. She smirked sinisterly as I approached her, mockery dancing in her eyes.“Where have you been, huh?" She snapped, glaring intimidatingly at me.I scoffed and rolled my eyes, looking away.“You don't own my life, do you?" I snapped.She frowned and stepped forward then gripped my chin, maliciously sinking her nails into my flesh.I winced as pain shot through my body.She leaned closer, piercing me with her sharp emerald eyes.“I am going to own you for three days, don't forget th

    VALERIE Lucian lifted his head and peered curiously into my eyes when I walked in. I guessed he was trying to scrape out the truth from my face even before I spilled it.“Where have you been?" Lucian asked and my brows shot. Just that question pointed out that Lucian must have seen us.From the corner of my eyes, I looked out the window and surveyed the field outside. I was pretty sure from the view that anyone in the office wouldn't be able to see the other part of the field where I and Damion were.“I've found it, Alpha," the beta's voice and the sound of his footsteps snapped me out of my survey.I swerved my head in the direction of the sound and our eyes locked. He gave me a blank stare before continuing his walk towards the Alpha.I frowned, finally understanding that it was the Beta that ratted me out.“You haven't answered my question, little fox,” Lucian muttered, eyeing me suspiciously.“I… I was attending to Miss Michelle,” I quickly blurted out without thinking twice.I b

    VALERIE I walked into the dimly lit room with Michelle trailing after me. “I am finally back to my room. I missed it so much," Michelle muttered and dropped into the bed, grinning widely. I narrowed my eyes and tried hard not to scoff at her behavior. “Prepare a bath for me. Do it quickly," she said and my heart twitched in anger. I felt like hitting her hard on her face or unleashing some venomous words at her. But then I realized that I shouldn't do that, I had to keep my temper in check for three days, just three days. I simply scowled at her and stomped into the bathroom to prepare her bath. By the time I was done and out, she was asleep. “You annoying witch!" I spat, glaring at her peaceful face hiding the evil buried in her heart. I turned and headed out of the room for some fresh air of freedom. It still amazed me that the Luna Queen was hellbent on pulling me down and showing me how much she hated me. I had to avoid infuriating her and that little witch

    VALERIE “The Luna Queen?" My ghostly voice made the servant raise his brows.He nodded his head wordlessly, and spun around, walking away.I staggered and leaned on the wall for support as thoughts of what the Luna Queen could want from me ran around my head.She isn't still angry about Adriana, is she? Or did she get to know that I disobeyed her and went into Adriana's room? Could it be because of that witch?I groaned out loudly and staggered up to my feet then closed the door behind me. With a heart filled with fear and reluctant feet, I shuffled to the throne room.As expected, everyone was there already, including the witch, Michelle.My feet froze when I spotted Lucian, Killian, and Damion in the throne room too.Lucian raised his brows in question when he saw me, Killian turned up his lips in what seemed like anger and Damion furrowed his brows, perhaps wondering what I was doing in the throne room.“What is she doing here?" Killian asked, his questioning eyes fixed on the Lun

    ADRIANA I quickly cranked my head back, and the person standing beside the door, watching us, made my heart sink. Killian lifted me from his lap, and I straightened my clothes, reaching for my bra, which lay in a corner as I avoided her eyes, which I could guess were filled with disgust. Michelle shut the door behind her and trudged in fully, heading straight to where Killian sat. I raised my brows, wondering what her dark mind was carving out again. She leaned closer to him till their faces were just a hair's breadth away and smiled.My heart clenched as I watched that evil smirk on her face, wondering what she was up to. I hoped that she wouldn't dare kiss Killian before me because I knew she was capable of doing that to trigger my anger. “You are injured, Killian; you should take a rest instead of trying to satisfy your nymphomaniac sex slave," she muttered, and a gasp slipped out of my parched lips as my heart broke at her words. She was surely here to get revenge, and she
