VALERIE I tried to wriggle again but he held my body down with his large hand, his eyes glimmering with emotions that I recognized to be dark and evil. “Stop struggling, it's not gonna help you get away," Lucian whispered, running his fingers along my neck. “Let me go, I promise to obey the Luna Queen for the rest of my life!" I whimpered even though some parts of me wanted them to keep me with them that night. “Really?" Killian snickered as he ran his fingers along my thighs, rubbing them together as his fingers slowly moved up. He grazed the flesh between my thighs, which was hidden under my underwear; my body shuddered at the contact. A smirk tugged at the corner of his lips as he slipped his fingers into my underwear and slipped one of his fingers into my cunt, I winced and tilted my head to the side, feeling the tightening of my core. I pulled his hand out and waved his fingers across my face. “But it says the opposite," he muttered and I glanced at his finger.
ADRIANA Meg flinched as I screamed and shattered another cup on the tray. After what happened in the throne room, I haven't been myself. To think that my brothers supported that sex slave against my mother and me was thrilling. “I can't believe this, I can't believe that he's supporting her instead of me. She is… she is bewitching my brothers, I can feel it," I gasped out, groaning loudly. "I will destroy her, I won't let her keep controlling my brothers,” I muttered and groaned out again. “My lady, you should eat something," Megan muttered. I spun around and slapped her hard on the cheeks. She gasped and staggered back, blood dripping from her swollen lips. “Keep your mouth shut if you have nothing to say!" I snapped and she whimpered, muttering an inaudible apology. I scoffed loudly and picked up my phone then dialed Diana's number. My relief washed over me as she picked up on the second ring, her assiduous voice filtering into my ear. “You won't believe what happened,
KILLIAN The door burst open and I looked up from the file before me. Neil walked in with worry etched against his face. I raised my brows, waiting for the bad news he was always good at breaking. “We have a problem, Alpha," he muttered and I scoffed, not surprised. “What is it this time around, Neil?" I asked, glancing back at the paperwork on the desk. “Some of our girls are missing," his answer was almost like a whisper. I snapped my head up and he took a step back, waiting for my reaction. “Missing?" I scoffed, filled with anger and surprise. He nodded, his worried eyes fixed on me as he awaited my decision. “Does my brother know about this?" I asked and he shook his head. I sighed out and dropped the pen then leaned back into the chair, slamming my eyes shut. “Where was the last place they were spotted?" I asked. I could tell that Neil hesitated before answering the question as some seconds passed by before he answered. “At a party.” My eyes snapped open and I jolt
KILLIAN The drive was rough and fast, filled with anger and the thirst for something red, something like blood. When we got to the Hyena, darkness had taken over the sky, and the night crawlers were all out, littering the streets in see-through, inviting dresses and loose jeans. "Jerome has sent the scan code, Alpha," Neil said as he scanned the building. I hummed and turned on my phone. The scan code popped up on my screen immediately after the phone was turned on. "Let's go," I muttered, and we got out of the car. But as we walked towards the building, I paused and turned, facing Neil. "Stay back in the car and watch out for any suspicious activity," I said, and he threw his head back, rebellion dancing in his eyes. "But, my lord—" “Keep silent and obey my order," I snapped, and he flinched back, rebelling in silence. I spun around and continued walking towards the Hyena.When I got close to the men who guarded the entrance, I pulled out my phone and showed them the scan
ADRIANA A loud gasp escaped from my lips the moment my eyes snapped open. I tilted my head to the side and whimpered as pain shot through my body.After swallowing as much air as I could grasp, I began to observe the unfamiliar environment that I was in.Dismay slowly crept into my body, tightening my chest as I stared at the room that we were in, what surprised me the most was the discovery that I wasn't alone.There were other girls in the room as well, fifteen in number. I recognized about six of them from the VVIP room and the rest seemed to be from somewhere else.Where in the world am I? How did I get there?I slammed my eyes shut and tried to remember the events that took place before I fell unconscious.I remembered the crashing of bottles, screams,, and the shrill ringing of gunshots.I also remembered something hitting my head before I drowned in darkness.But what happened before that chaos began? FLASHBACK My brows raised in question when Diana muttered those
KILLIAN A slam at the door with my feet got it flying open. I and Neil walked into the house and took the small flights of stairs that led to his bedroom. I stepped back from the door and smashed my feet on it and it fell apart. “Fucking get the–" his words to someone on the phone stopped flowing. He spun around, eyes as wide as saucers as he glared from me to Neil. “Who the hell are you?" He stuttered, shifting back in wobbly legs. I sauntered fully into the room, observing the untidy room. Clothes and articles were scattered on the floor and bed. Two suitcases were thrown open behind him and piles of clothes were in them. It was obvious that he was running away. “Miles Sinclair, right?” I muttered and his eyes narrowed. “What the hell do you want?" He snapped hoarsely. “The illegitimate son of Dominic Sinclair, the Alpha of Westwood Pack," I muttered and he twitched up his lips in anger and confusion. “How did you know the circumstances surrounding my birth?" He snappe
ADRIANA We sat in silence, engulfed in fear and the uncertainty of who would be the next to die.Every glance at the dark door brought terror and dread to our souls.I thought of transforming to my wolf form but a bullet wheezed into my body could take me to my grave. I wasn't ready to die yet, I needed my mate and I needed to be happy and free from my family.A grip on my wrist brought me back to reality, I tilted my head around to look at Diana whose face was as pale as that of a ghost.Her cracked lips trembled in fear and her eyes were red and sunken from shedding of tears.“Are we going to survive?" Her voice was ghostly, much lower than a whisper.“Are we?" She repeated, her eyes filled with hope and almost lifeless.“I don't know, Diana, I doubt if we'll survive this," I replied.I thought her voice was ghostly and almost dead but mine was worse. It lacked life and hope, it sounded like that of someone on the verge of death with no hope to fight the sting of death off.Pain
ADRIANA “I am not weak, bitches!" My words sliced through the oppressive air and caused their eyes to widen.“Really?" A blonde-haired girl muttered and stood up, trotting towards me with a smirk on her face.“Are you sure you're not weak? Should we test your word?" She muttered, grinning sinisterly.Despite the insane beating of my heart, I didn't think of backing down. That will make me a coward, and anyone with the surname ‘Nox’ is no coward.We were taught to fight for ourselves and our legacy. We were only taught to fight for vengeance and never back down from our decisions. My brothers have lived their lives fulfilling that, sacrificing their happiness to carry on that legacy whispered into our ears the day we became old enough to fight and squabble.They are the daughters of those men who caused those legacies to exist. If my brothers destroyed and humbled their fathers and families, then I will have to continue such a task by humbling them, even though it leads to breaking a
KILLIAN Tension shot through my body when she pushed me aside. I staggered but managed to keep my feet firm on the ground. The sound of a blade penetrating flesh rang in my head and I quickly spun around. But it was too late. Right before me was little Val and the rogue that I thought I killed. The blood that stained little Val's dress pointed out that the rogue had done something to her. I let out a growl and rushed towards the rogue, my eyes fixed on the bloodstained blade he had pulled out from little Val's body. He grinned widely in pride as little Val dropped to the ground. Fear darted across his eyes when they met the rage in my eyes and he took a step back. The anger bubbling in me was fierce enough to burn him to ashes and that was what I had planned to do. I grabbed him before he could turn around and sank my claws into his wrist. He growled in agony and his grip around the blade slackened. I wrapped my hands around his neck and twisted it back, snapping life out
VALERIE Killian jumped back, still clenching my shaking body. I shivered in fear at the sight of the blade but Killian remained unshaken by his sudden appearance. The man grinned, revealing a set of disgusting teeth. “Killian Nox, your days have come to an end," his hoarse voice filled the air, making my heart sink. Killian scoffed and ran his eyes over his body before pushing me behind him. “So… that is a threat?" Killian chuckled and stepped forward, making sure that I was right behind him. The man waved the silver blade, slicing it through the air before releasing a loud growl. "Don't move from there," Killian instructed and shook me off, marching towards the ugly rogue. I watched with my heart in my hand as the rogue swung his large blade, running towards Killian. Despite the hatred I had for him, I still couldn't help but wish that he would survive. The rogue, towering over the underbrush, charged through the forest with reckless abandon, his eyes suddenly becoming fi
VALERIE I slammed my eyes shut, my body shook as I muffled gibberish under my breath.“Please… don't…don't hurt me," those were the only words that I made out from all the gibberish that I had been muttering.A cold hand gripped my arm and I yelled in fear, still unable to open my eyes. My body was so paralyzed that I couldn't shrug off his hand.This was all Killian's fault. If he hadn't brought me here to abandon me, I wouldn't have been trapped in a monster's trap.“Please…let me go,” I whispered in a quivering voice and heard a low, dark chuckle.“Really?" The voice sounded familiar, yet dark and sinister.“Little fox?" That nickname forced me to open my eyes and look up.Relief washed across my body when I saw Killian's face instead of that of a monster.I sighed loudly and slowly got up, burying my head in embarrassment.“What was that?" He asked, and I raised my brows in question, even though I knew what he was talking about.“Huh?" I muttered, narrowing my eyes.He smirked an
VALERIE I gasped in disbelief and staggered back, my eyes as wide as saucers. “You… you believe me?" I said in almost a whisper and he smiled, nodding his head. Tears gathered in my eyes as I stared at him. Who would have believed that he would help me to prove my innocence? I dropped my head on his chest, crying silently. " Hey,” he cooed, digging his hand into my hair as he rubbed my scalp. “You don't have to worry, hmm," he muttered and traced the back of my neck with his finger. “Let's leave this place," he muttered and I pulled away from him. But as I turned around to leave, my heart sank when I saw Damion, standing some distance away from us. Sadness and anger rocked his orbs as he watched us. “Damion," I whispered, filled with guilt. He gulped hard, cast a glance at Killian then turned around and walked off. My belly knotted, and I felt my head spin in circles as his figure disappeared slowly into the dark forest. “Damion!" I shouted and began to run after him but
VALERIE I shrieked in fear when the gates fell open. Killian rushed in, sweat dripping down his broad chest. My brows shot up as I wondered what he wanted again. “Little fox, come with me!" He snapped and before I could protest, he grabbed my arm and pulled me out of the room. As he dragged me along the dark corridor, my heart, which had almost left my body, slowly returned. However, it didn't stop skipping beats as thoughts of what he wanted to do with me haunted my mind. I hoped he wasn't planning to use me to satisfy his sexual urge. I swore within myself to kill him if he dared try to pull me to his bed. “Where are you taking me?" I asked when we stepped out of the corridor and climbed the old creaking stairs out of the underground. He didn't reply, instead, he pulled me roughly and briskly through the passageways, ignoring all greetings thrown at him. He dragged me to the garage and shoved me into a car then slid in beside me and ignited it before driving out of the m
KILLIAN “Will she be fine?" I asked the Pack's doctor and she nodded her head, taking a step back.I stared blankly at Adriana's face which was slowly getting some life into it."If Lady Michelle was okay, Miss Adriana would have been awake by now," she muttered, and my fist clenched in indignation.“Well… she is still alive," I muttered and ran my hands through Adriana's hair before getting up from the couch I sat on.“Take care of her. I will be back," I instructed, and she bowed slightly as I walked out of the room.The thought of Valerie pushing Michelle off the hill still amazed me. It was hard to believe as Valerie would never do such a thing. If it was the other way around, then it would have been believable.I pushed the door open and walked in without announcement.Michelle, who was seated on the bed, flinched, almost throwing the cup she held to the ground.“You scared me!" She snapped and narrowed her eyes, drinking from the cup again.“You seem to recover your voice quick
VALERIEMy grip around her hair slackened when my eyes fell on Lucian. Michelle cried out, and flung my hand off her hair before rolling over, grasping her leg and belly as she faked bitter tears.Lucian's fist clenched in fury as he watched her pretend to be hurt by me.“Michelle!" He snapped and walked fully into the room, rushing towards her.He dropped to a knee beside her and turned her over, muttering words that I couldn't hear to her.My heart twisted in pain at the betrayal that was happening before me. I was astonished that he could care for a woman that way, yet he never seemed to care if I was dead or alive.He cupped her into his arms and dropped her carefully on the bed, sitting beside her and he took her hand into his.“Oh, Lucian, why does she hate me that much?” She muttered and faked a sob.I turned up my lips in anger and scoffed.Lucian craned his neck backward and glared at me.I narrowed my eyes at him and began to stride to the door, filled with anger.“Stop righ
VALERIE “Are you sure you want to do this?” Bianca asked as we tiptoed across the corridor that led to the room where Michelle was.“I have to. This is the only way to clear my name," I muttered, unwavering from my decision to get the truth out of her and get her punished.“But—" I stopped sneaking towards the room and looked at Bianca's face which had worry etched against it."You don't have to do it. I will get this done by myself to avoid implicating others in my mess,” I said.Guilt washed across her pale face and she quickly shook her head in disagreement."No, I will come along with you,” she muttered and my lips stretched into a smile.“I am not upset with you. I just don't want you to get hurt,” I said, and rubbed her shoulders, smiling warmly at her."Are you sure that you want to do this?” She asked again and I nodded firmly.She sighed and rubbed my cheeks before stepping back."I wish you all the best,” she whispered, and I nodded before spinning around and heading toward
VALERIE The cheerful chatter in the kitchen made me stretch my lips into a smile. Two days have passed since that passionate kiss with Damion on the rooftop. It seemed that the kiss was the real reason for my quick healing. Michelle hadn't woken up or she wasn't satisfied with her pretense and the Lycan kings' endless care for her “How are you feeling now?" Monica asked as she ran her curious eyes over my body. “Better than before," I grinned and she giggled. I and Damion had decided when to kick off with our plans of running away. However, I still felt worried about the risky decision that we had made. But life is all about risk, isn't it? So, I was ready to take the risk for the one that I love. “You are making a mistake, Val," Jade's weak voice sneaked into my mind, and I scoffed, narrowing my eyes. “No, I'm not!" I snapped at her and she slid back into her shell. Ever since I decided to leave the Lycan Kings, Jade had refused to talk to me. Though I didn't care about be
