VALERIE My jaws fell open as I let her words sink in slowly. “You will help me escape?" I muttered again. A scowl slowly replaced the smirk on her face and she scoffed loudly in disgust. “Your sight irritates me. The best way to get rid of you is by letting you get away from my brothers; that way, I won't be able to cross paths with you every day," she snickered, narrowing her eyes at me. Though her words sent a sharp pain through my body, I was somewhat thankful that she hated me that badly. “That's a good thing," I said, smiling lightly. She tilted her head and returned the false smile before stepping away. “Get out," she muttered and I obeyed her instantly. “I'm going to take you to one of the boundaries of the wolf kingdom. You'll find your way from there,” she muttered and I broke into smiles, showering praises on her. Pride darted across her grey orbs and she smirked before leading the way into the car. My heart kept thumping loudly in excitement as we drove
VALERIE The man gasped out, blood splashed out of his mouth and he dropped to the ground, wriggling in pain. I sighed out in relief and looked across to the door. My heart dropped into my belly when I saw two huge figures standing by the door. One was with a gun and the other had a clenched fist. A cough from the man sprawled out on the ground made me snap my terrified gaze away from them. Only their scent was able to tell me who they were and what they were doing here.The one with the gun stepped in first followed by his brother. He looked up and pulled off the mask on his face. My breath hitched as I stared into Lucian's furious eyes.The other man pulled off his mask, too, and it turned out to be Killian.“Al… Alp… Alpha…" I stammered, searching for words that I could use to defend myself.“Hold your explanation!" Lucian growled and I shuddered in fear.Lucian took a few steps towards the groaning man and squatted beside him. He placed the gun on the man's neck and he stiffened o
VALERIE I was stuck in between Lucian and Killian in the car. If I could find a way to escape from these two, I would have happily done that. Both of them didn't say a word to me, nor did I try to start up a conversation. My body was broken and my mind was already in disarray as the dead bodies that littered in that house kept appearing in my head. I felt a sickening feeling in my belly and clenched onto the hem of my dress, snapping my eyes shut as I bit my lips. I wondered what would become of Chris, silently, I prayed for Chris's safety. I hoped that someone would help him and save him. “You shouldn't have shot him," I whispered and Lucian looked at me. "What did you say?" He asked and I sniffed back the tears that stung my eyes. “You shouldn't have shot that boy!" I groused and he scoffed, glaring at me. “You shouldn't have touched him then? I shot him because you touched him," Lucian said, tracing his fingers along my arm. I frowned and slapped off his hand, gl
VALERIE The first thing that hit me the next morning was the pain that throbbed between my thighs. I groaned in agony and clenched onto the sheet, which was covered in semen, sweat, and drops of my blood.As I stood up, my wobbly feet refused to keep me steady and my sour clit only worsened the condition.I dropped down to the bed again and groaned in pain. Tears fell freely from my eyes as the painful memories of last night came flooding into my head. I was raped, I was made to see hell before me.Not only was my freedom taken away from me, but my dignity and happiness were taken away as well. I was left with nothing but sorrow and constant pain.The door burst open, taking my mind away from the overwhelming thoughts that surrounded me. I forced a smile into my face when I saw Bianca trudge. She flashed a smile back at me, but both of us could tell that the smiles on our faces were fake and full of sadness.My eyes drifted to her exposed neck and guilt enveloped me when I saw a slas
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 My jaws fell open in shock as I glared at him.He smiled in return and looked at the Luna, who was stunned by his response.“I want to dance with her," he repeated, waving his hands towards me.From the corner of my eyes, I watched Lucian approach us. My heart constricted, and I curled my toes into the ground, hoping nothing catastrophic would happen.The Luna sent an intimidating glare at me and forced a smile onto her face.“Fine, you are permitted to dance with her," she said with an unnoticed eye roll.Lucian stopped walking and glared at Damion as he walked towards me and took the tray.“Let's keep this aside for a while, huh?" He beamed.Adriana gasped out when Damion forced the tray into her hand and took mine.With a thumping heart and with the eyes of the royal family and the entire guests on me, Damion led me to the middle of the ballroom.His russet eyes twinkled as he dropped my clammy hand on his shoulder. I shuddered slightly when he wrapped his hand around my w
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
VALERIE "I am disappointed in you, Valerie!" He groused with a glare before turning to help his mother up from the seat. I gulped hard and slowly stood up, dropping my head. "Forgive me—" "Don't say a word!" I shifted back at the harsh tone of Lucian's voice. "Hey, don't yell at her!" The Luna Queen snapped, hitting him on the chest. Lucian sighed in disappointment and threw me a glare before leading his mother to the bed. The maidservant turned and stared at me coldly then moved closer to where I stood. "You should have stopped her, my lady," she muttered. My heart clenched and I gripped the edge of the table, getting overwhelmed with guilt. "I'm sorry. I never meant to let her drink so much," I whispered, avoiding her accusing eyes. She huffed in annoyance and trudged off to attend to the Luna Queen. I sighed in disappointment, muttering curses under my breath. If Lucian hadn't intervened, she would have told me how she killed Renee. I needed to fix the dot
VALERIE My throat knotted and my hand shook at her sudden words. "You want to talk about your life? I… I don't think…" She waved her hand and my lips slammed shut. "Don't worry about trust. We seem to share the same fate…" She paused and gulped down another glass of wine. I had the chance to stop her but the curiosity that bubbled in me and the selfishness that resided in my heart wouldn't let me take that step. I simply sat still, turning a blind eye as she consumed bottles of wine alone. "Alright then. I will listen to your life story," I said, smiling lightly. I could feel the eyes of the maidservant standing some inches away from me. I knew she felt disappointed that I let her mistress drink. She leaned into the chair, her fingers wrapped around her chin as she fixed her eyes steadily on the dark wardrobe. "I don't want to talk about my sister," she muttered, throwing her head to the side with an eye roll."Then… what do you want to talk about?" I asked.oyI felt like I
VALERIE "Your sister?" I gasped in surprise.She nodded her head in response and smiled sadly."She must mean a lot to you," I stuttered, cautious of the words that I blurt out."Yes, she does," she whispered and sighed, slamming her eyes shut.I watched her, silently hoping that she would open the wardrobe.She turned around and moved towards the table, my hopes dashing."I store my memories in there…" she spoke as she raised the glass of wine to her lips. She paused and dimmed her eyes, twirling the glass in her hand."Everyone of them." If not that I paid keen attention to her, I wouldn't have grabbed the words she whispered with sadness."Getting mated to the heir of the Nox family must come with lots of memories," I chuckled nervously."Yes, I had the most chaotic memory here in the Blood Moon Pack, especially with Renee around," she muttered and gulped down some of the wine in the glass.My throat knotted when she mentioned Renee.She dropped the glass on the table and waved m
VALERIE I followed Lucian to Killian's room, my heart thumping loudly in my chest in excitement. He didn't bother knocking before pushing the door open. Killian raised his head when we entered the room. He dropped the cup he was holding and leaned back into the bed, his eyes piercing into ours in a suspicious gaze. "Don't tell me you two have been fucking while I'm struggling with my life," he huffed, turning up his lips as he narrowed his eyes at us. "Why should I bother myself when I'm certain that you're going to live," Lucian muttered nonchalantly. I trotted towards Killian and took his hand, rubbing it gently. "I heard you got the antidote," he muttered. I raised my head and our eyes locked. I blushed lightly, my heart skipping beats as those blue eyes that I had always yearned to stare into consumed me. "Did you get hurt on the way?" He asked. I shook my head, too stunned to speak. His hand moved to my hair, and he brushed it back, a smile flickering across his enchan
VALERIE I almost choked when he whispered those words to me. "What… what?" I gasped, feeling the rush of blood in my face.""Don't you want to be sure you haven't lost your voice yet?" He teased, causing a smile to break out on my face. "Then I should see a doctor for my voice," I replied. Despite the desire I had for him, I still couldn't stop my stubbornness from showing up again.His hand moved to my hair, and he patted it gently before combing it down with his fingers."We don't need a doctor here, little Val, not when I'm right here," he whispered, teasing me with his hot breath against my neck. I shivered and giggled slightly.His hand traced up to my breast and he squeezed my hardened nipples, earning a gasp from me.He leaned forward and kissed my neck, placing love bites on my neck.I groaned out in pleasure, biting my lips as my eyes slammed shut in pleasure.My pussy was dripping wet, begging for an insertion of his fingers.He moved away and pushed his wavy hair back,
VALERIE Lucian parted his lips, ready to pass out his judgment on me. "Why should she be treated that way after what she went through to find the antidote?" Lucian questioned me, snapping a glare at Michelle. "Do you even have a conscience?" He snapped at Michelle and her jaws dropped. "How sure are you that she went to the Isle of the Blessed? It's possible that she stayed at a place and returned with a drug prepared by a witch!" She groused, still trying to turn Lucian against me. "Why don't you focus on helping him recover instead of laying blame!" Lucian growled at her and she jumped, embarrassment smeared against her face. "But…" Lucian grabbed me and raised my shirt, pointing at the wound on my belly. "Is that enough to prove that she went there? Will she hurt herself so bad to lie?" He snapped. He sighed and dug his hand into his hair, groaning in anger as he glared at her in annoyance. "She did her part by going to the cursed Isle and getting the antidote, why don't
VALERIE My heart stopped beating the moment his lips pressed against mine. A warm feeling washed over my body and my legs stopped shaking. He pulled away and blinked repeatedly before grasping my hand. His eyes held emotions that I couldn't interpret even though the meaning was clear to me and everyone surrounding us.His lips trembled, and his chest rose and fell, causing a knot to form in my throat."Go on," he whispered tenderly to me, brushing my hair back with his hand before letting go of my hand. He glanced over at Michelle and nodded towards her. "Come on, take her in and prepare the antidote for Killian," he said in a completely different tone. Happiness rippled through me, and I tried hard not to burst into laughter or mockery before everyone. Michelle, who was almost numb from shock nodded slowly and began to climb the stairs with heavy steps. A smile tugged at the corner of my lips as I trailed after Michelle. We didn't say a word to one another as we walked acros
VALERIE "My lady!" Beta Neil exclaimed and rushed towards the car I was in as we drove in. He pulled the door open and stood aside for me with his head bowed. I felt an unexplainable happiness and satisfaction rock my body the moment the car drove into the manor of the Blood Moon Pack. I stepped out of the car, my face radiating with a smile over my accomplishment. The Beta smiled when he saw me, excited that I came back alive with the antidote as well. "Alpha Killian is still alive, right?" I asked the moment I faced him. "Yes. We all have been waiting for your arrival," he replied and bowed again. I smiled and turned to face Theo and Liam. "Thank you for protecting me," I muttered. "No, my lady, we should be thanking you for saving our lives," Liam responded. I chuckled and rubbed their broad shoulders, earning shocked gasps from them before walking away with the beta. Everywhere looked quite different even though I had lived there for months. Perhaps, it was the effect
VALERIE I narrowed my eyes at her question and scoffed. I was certain that she wasn't happy that I was back. "Shouldn't I be asking you that instead?" I asked, glaring at her. "You didn't seem to get punished for your sassy behavior over there," she muttered."Why? Are you disappointed to find out that none of the traumas I faced there broke me down?" I blurted out, making sure that the mockery was evident in my voice.She scoffed and sat up, flipping her long lustrous hair to the side as she admired her manicure. My lips turned up as I watched her, slowly burning out my patience. "Why am I not in the Blood Moon Pack?" I snapped. "Hush!" She snapped, placing her hand over my heavily glossed lips. "You are in a sacred place. Do not make too much noise," she whispered. I twitched up my lips in disgust but unwillingly obeyed her. I looked around the room and realized that it was a living room. "How is a living room your sacred place?" I asked sassily. She darted her eyes in my
