Continuous Torture.
“No, i…. I...i don't want to die.” i managed to say, still struggling to catch my breath.
“Good, because i only grant death to people who don't want to live anymore.” he said grabbing my neck.
“Alpha Marcus, she is here. Ella is here?”
I didn't recognize the voice but he immediately let go of his grip on my neck. Any minute longer and i think i would have died.
He walked towards the strange man standing at the door, the room was full of tension now. Who was Ella and what was she here for? They both stepped outside and he shouted from the doorway. “You better be in your best behavior when i come back or you are going to join your mother.”
Painful tears stung my eyes, every time he mentioned my mother i wished she had lived long enough to protect me.

I was woken up by a bucket of ice cold water being poured all over me. I now had on just a slip dress and it was soaking wet and clinging to my body.
“Who do you think you are sleeping until noon you little slut.” Alpha Marcus’s Beta, Dwayne said as he uncuffed my hands looking at me like i was some filth. “Clean this whole place up and make yourself presentable for the Alpha.”He said pushing me off the bed with so much force as soon as he was done handcuffing me.
I fell on the ground head down hurting my face, my whole body was in menacing pain and it was burning up. It was like my body had been stomped on by everyone, every part of me was in pain. I quickly got up, before i could receive another beating and started limping around the room collecting all the dirt on the floor.
“Is something wrong with your leg? I can break it for you so that you can limp properly.” The beta said in a loud commanding voice i almost fell from fear. He was standing at six feet tall, with a huge body, it was like he was built to torture.
I forced myself to walk properly as i walked towards his direction to collect the hand cuffs he had dropped on the floor. He spanked me hard i let out a loud scream, which i immediately regretted. He slapped me on my left cheek so hard that i fell on the floor. He followed it up by kicking me in my stomach several times i started coughing blood. He kicked me several times until i stopped screaming and just lay there clutching to my stomach. My wolf was still nowhere to be seen i was helpless.
“Stop it Dwayne, you are going to kill her.” a female voice said from the doorway making him stop.
“I thought you said you wanted her gone.” Dwayne asked the mystery woman who was now standing over me. She was a blonde with long hair that went down to her waist.
“I do want her gone, but definitely not dead.”She looked at me lying there and took her left heeled leg and stepped on my already broken leg and twisted it, i felt so much pain i got numb. “You better go back to wherever you came from yoi little whore. Alpha Marcus is mine, am his chosen mate and i need you to be gone.” she said removing her leg from my broken crushed leg. “If you do not find a way to get out of here am going to kill you with my own damn hands.”
“Why are you worried about her anyway? You are his true mate she is just a slave he plays with.”
“Until she is gone, Marcus is not going to let the ritual take place you know how the man loves his freedom. And you know our parents don't have much time before they will be killed.” she said to Dwayne, it seemed like they knew each other and were planning something, but i was too hurt to even concentrate on their conversation.
“I have been looking for you two everywhere.” I heard the Alpha’s voice. I could recognize it anywhere it had a distinctiveness darkness and roughness in it. “What happened in here?” he asked looking around the room, with me lying on the floor in my own blood.
“She was trying to be hard headed, seems she is yet to learn her lesson. She is feisty this one.” Dwayne answered laughing sarcastically.
“Can you imagine the little bitch spit on me.” the mysterious woman added hugging the Alpha.
“Dwayne take Ella out of here.” The alpha commanded Dwayne. He had no expression in his face he didn't seem angry at all. “I will take care of her.”
What did he mean take care of me? Was he going to kill me. I started shaking uncontrollably out of fear. He walked towards me and squatted next to me.
“You belong to me now, am not going to hurt you if you di what i say okay?” he asked tucking strands of my hair behind my ears.
I quickly nodded as he helped me get up, he took me to the bathroom and bathed me and bandaged up my broken leg before he took me back to his bed and violated me.
I did not oppoose i just let him do whatever he wanted and when he was done he kissed me and said good girl and left me. I cried myself to sleep.
Vanessa. Splash! A bucket of ice cold water came down my face unexpectedly bringing me back to reality and out of my slumber. “Rise and shine beautiful!” Ella's sharp voice said as i tried to open my eyes. I gasped at the discomfort and the cold water now all over my tiny piece of clothing,as the cold water trickled down my body. I tried catch my breath, but i didn't have enough time before the second bucket or water came into harsh contact with my face. “Are you awake now or should i bring a third bucket just to be sure?”Ella laughed sarcastically as i tried to cough out the water that was in my nose and mouth. I greedily tried to gasp for air but my lunfs were exhausted from the quock breaths i was trying to take which caused me to cough violently causing my body to shake and causing the ropes restraining me to cruelly bite more into my skin. After a few minutes i finally managed to calm down and slowly looked up at the woman who was torturing me because her boyfriend was spend
Vanessa. I woke up to the sound of chirping birds, a warm breeze, and a bright sun. I found myself sitting in a Pavillion, staring out onto a large grassy field, covered by a carpet. Butterflies and bees danced about, squirrels chattering amd birds flew from tree to tree. Where am i? I questioned myself in my mind, the last time i checked i was bleeding to death. Oh no! I was bleeding to death. Not possible, am i dead?! I can't be dead, i thought to myself before a voice startled me. “I thought you were stronger than that Nessa, so where is the fighter?” the question startled me as i tried to open my heavy eyelids and look around. That voice was too familiar or maybe i was really dead if i am hallucinating now. Then i saw her, my mother. She was sitted a few feet away from my bed sipping on her tea.. “Whaaa…” is all i could master to say. My mother died when i was ten, so how is it possible that she is here with me in my hospital room drinking tea. “I didn't raise you to b
Vanessa I felt a warm hand on my shoulder, and i heard a strange voice say, “Hey , stay with me , we are almost there, drive faster Monroe.” the strange voice yelled. “I am going as fast as i can, unless you want to be admitting more than one patient at the hospital.” i heard someone else say. “Mom..” i moaned in pain.“shhh,it's okay, you are going to be okay.” the deep voice soothed me, the warm hand softly petting my hair before i realized it, I slipped out of consciousness again. I opened my eyes to the soft humming of a beautiful familiar woman, my mother. She was pettingmy hair, the warm breeze of my calm place comforting me. I looked up to find her looking down at me with a huge grin on her face. “Such a beautiful Luna, my darling girl.”she said as her hand continued its routine stroking my hair. It was comforting knowing my mother was there with me. I closed my eyes and swallowed the bitter saliva before saying. “You mean such a battered slave.”“Don't even finish that
Vanessa. He quickly carried me and we snuck out of my hospital bed, my whole body was still sore and in. Pain. The alarm went off and the police immediately started looking for me. He slowly put me down in w corner sandwiching me to the wall like we were some hot couple hot for each other. I tried to struggle against him, but he didn't budge. His body was almost twice the size of mine i had no chance. He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me closer, i extended my claws ready to sink it into his body, when i heard the polices officers footsteps. After everything that happened to me the last time i wanted was any man no matter how hot he was to touch me. But i also didn't want to die that's when i realized what Nick was doing. I kept my lips shut, but tried to visibly relax into his embrace, while my insides were churning with mixed emotions. Some part of me was angry but the other part was crazy for this man. The police officers were getting closer by the second and i kne
Vanessa Alpha Marcus was ruthless and I had firsthand experience. He was not going to let my act slide past him, he'd scour the whole earth to exert his vengeance.'A girl slave had hospitalized the Alpha of Crescent pack', I already knew there was a bounty on my head. What I wondered was if it was either dead or alive, or both. Only if I had my wolf! ***Six years ago. It was the full moon, and it was my sixteenth birthday.I knew that if I had any hope of being a shifter, it was now or never.I was scared out of my mind. Most werewolves had their friends or family help them through their first shifting.I had no one to see me through it, so I did not know what to expect.Over time I had learned to ignore my instincts and think with my mind rationally, but I could not resist the urge to run. I was now deep in the forest, and I could feel my wolf coming out. A pain sparked in my head and it was more of a consciousness finding room in my brain.It felt like pleasure and pain simultaneousl
Marcus P.O.V "Are you alright?" Dwayne my Beta inquired. "Am perfectly fine, my healing ability is to be reckoned with."I replied jovially. Everything was going to plan, except for the few injuries." The Moonpack walked into the trap with both legs, just as you had suggested Alpha."Dwayne suggested." War is all about Strategy,and now we've got the green lights. Gather the council." I instructed. Dwayne was my right hand man and I trusted him, but not with my life.With the spoils of war, after a certain victory, I had an seven of the twelve Alpha's backup my claim as the Alpha King. They were now my generals and commanded my army. "Alpha Marcus, the council is ready." One of the guards alerted me. After I'd taken my seat, the rest followed suit and the meeting commenced. "As you all know, we were attacked and property was stolen,the investigations have been concluded and we're certain it's Alpha Ace's Beta who lead the attacks." Dwayne loudly read out the script. "A script has be
Ace P. O. VThe gamble. Nick, my Beta had successfully secured the package I had sent for. It was a risk, and if she lives up to the expectation then it will be worth it. Being an alpha breed was no joke and I had not yet met my fated mate, who would complete me. Whether she even existed was up to debated.I oftenly had some of the she-wolves come to my quarters, but they claimed the heat was too much. To more pressing issues, Alpha Marcus was on a quest to unite the westside and Eastside of the shifters ridges' and claim the title of Alpha King. He'd personally invited me to his pack quarters and promised me the title of Chief General if I took an oath to him as Alpha King.We already had the lycan King who ensured balance amongst the supernaturals and the humans. Alpha Marcus just wanted to dominate all the Alphas, and be the Alpha King.I was not going to let him do that.The packs of the eastside, except for one, merged to form the opposition and I was selected as the leader.I had
Nick's P. O. VAm I making a mistake or is she the true Luna that I saw once in the woods.As the beta to Alpha Ace, it was upon me to make him happy. Although he looked 'okay' the mate thing had really been a big upset to him.One of the witches had looked into his future and seen a true Luna as his mate,that she claimed he'd never find. For that, the witch lost her head but upto now the prophecy seemed true. This was his only shot of happiness and I'd not fail him. "I once saw you transform, but as I tried to approach you vanished."I answered Vanessa."What are you talking about, you don't even know me!" Vanessa snapped back."This locket, does it look familiar?" I asked. She stared for a while in disbelief before she replied."Yes,it was my mother's, she passed it to me on my tenth birthday.Where did you get it?" She asked. "I think it must have broken while you shifted, I found it on the ground after you had disappeared." I replied. "So you were really there, what makes you think a
The other lycans began to pay attention, calling out to her. She coated fur in ice, and slid frozen weapons in the direction of any lycan in human form who could wield one. The high body temperature of the lycans meant they quickly burned through their frosty axes and swords. Vanessa was working overtime. She began to feel drained and depleted. Her arms were heavy and her body began to feel cold within. Nick ’s wolf watched her intently. She couldn’t tell what he was thinking. He darted away and into the entrance of the complex, and just as Vanessa was beginning to think she had used up her powers completely, a wave of warmth and energy surged through her. She turned to see Laurie, her blonde brow furrowed in deep concentration. She gave Vanessa a small smile and nod. Lance’s wolf circled Laurie protectively. He did not look one bit happy about this arrangement. Nick returned to Vanessa’s side, ready for another round of ice. She called upon her powers and this time they returned. T
“Aria!” Vanessa yelled. Where had they gone? Where had he taken her? Magic flooded her veins. Without another thought, she hurled a wave of ice toward the disgusting bald man. It hit him with such force that his body flew up and straight through one of the glass walls that made up the complex’s entryway. He hit the stone steps outside with an audible crash and did not move again. As Vanessa turned her gaze she caught sight of Nick . His eyes met with hers and she opened her mouth to speak. Before she could warn him, the air around them crackled. An army of Collectors appeared. A large group surrounded the outer lobby while a small group appeared within the lobby itself. Fear struck Vanessa so strongly she could barely think. The lycans reacted in an instant. Some chose to shift into their wolves, while others remained in human form and used the weapons they had in hand. Leah dove at the Collector nearest to Vanessa, shifting into her lean black wolf in midair. The man screeched as s
Vanessa felt so helpless up here. She understood their reasoning, but still wanted to do more. For now she would have to wait, pray, and hope everyone was safe down below. T he lycans worked efficiently. They had been able to assemble their teams and lock down the complex within half an hour. It was a reminder to Nick of why they trained so hard and how important it was to do so. After securing the inside perimeter, they went outdoors. The scene that met the lycan teams looked like something out of a horror film. The second Nick exited the complex his senses were assaulted by the smell of blood and decaying flesh. The victims were scattered all around the property. The first girl he saw was a small, young brunette. She had long dark hair and large blue eyes that stared up at him accusingly. Her body was so badly mangled that he couldn’t have guessed the original color of clothes she was currently wearing. Deep crimson covered her broken form. The lifeless woman lay at an unnatural an
“Don’t worry about Aria.” He spoke in a gentle tone. “We have plenty of time before we need to think about kids. Let’s just enjoy tonight and worry about all of that later.” His breath was coming out in frosty puffs now. “I can’t do it,” Vanessa said. “Can’t do what?” She finally turned from the window to look at him. “I can’t have kids with you. I can’t do it. I won’t do it.” Nick looked stunned. “Why are you saying this?” Tears streamed down Vanessa’s cheeks. “Do you think I want to have little monsters? To bring them into this world?” “Monsters?” echoed Nick , his jaw tensing. “Yes, monsters! What do you think would happen if we have kids?” Nick was quiet. His eyes burned into hers. “I didn’t realize having lycan children would be so unappealing to you.” Vanessa stared at him, his words catching her off guard. “I guess lycans are good enough to save you, train you, and fuck you. God forbid you have a lycan ‘monster’ child of your own.” There was so much venom in his tone
He gave her a mischievous smirk. “You’ll see.” Vanessa let out a small sound of protest. “First, you need to take a shower and get ready for dinner.” “Dinner?” she asked. He nodded. “Dinner, at Alpha Marcus ’s place.” Vanessa couldn’t hide her surprise. “In the penthouse? But why?” Instead of answering, Nick bent down to capture Vanessa’s lips in a deep kiss. She felt dizzy as he pulled away. “No more questions. I’ll pick you up at seven thirty,” he said as he dropped her off at her door. He bent to give Vanessa one last kiss. “You’re not coming in?” She frowned. “I’ve got to meet with Aria. She’s been bombarding me with party planning all day.” Vanessa laughed. “She can be very persistent.” “Yes she can be.” Nick rubbed his temples. “I’ll be back at seven thirty.” “See you then.” She watched him head down the hallway, his tall frame moving with long purposeful strides. Damn he looked good from behind, from the front, in a suit, in his sweats, in nothing at all. Nick stopped
Vanessa shook her head. “The Collectors are looking for me. We can’t leave the complex. We can’t go outside Matlena’s wards.” “We’re not leaving the complex. Lucky for us there is a gorgeous unused banquet hall right here in the building!” “What? Why is there a banquet hall at Ulric?” Nick was the one who answered this time. “There are often times when Alpha Marcus is forced to entertain other large partners, businesses, and even other Alphas visiting the territory.” He grimaced. “Not to mention a surprise visit from the Infernal Council.” Aria clapped her hands together excitedly. “Exactly. All we need to do is give it a few decorations and voila!” Vanessa could tell by the way Aria said ‘a few’ decorations that it would be anything but a small amount of decor. Aria had a flair for the dramatic, and Vanessa could only imagine what kind of over-the-top antics were in store. Nick put up a hand to stop Aria from saying more. “We can’t just let a bunch of florists and caterers into
“Hello again, Ice Queen.” Lucas gave her a warm smile. He was awfully dreamy with his blond hair and Aussie accent. It was a stark contrast to Nick ’s jet-black locks, which Vanessa preferred. “I hope you’re ready for today’s lesson.” He gestured toward the vast collection of swords, knives, crossbows, and other weaponry. “Honestly this is not my area of expertise.” Vanessa laughed. “I don’t think I’ve ever used anything in this room. You really think I’ll have access to all these types of weapons in the middle of a real fight?” He cocked a blond eyebrow in Vanessa’s direction. “You don’t need access to them. All you need is to know a little bit about their make-up, and how to use them.” Lucas continued, “Vanessa, I think we can channel your powers. If you could learn to give shape to your ice, like you do with the shards, you could be capable of making any type of weapon at will.” Vanessa felt a rush of nervous energy. “You want me to make weapons out of ice? What if I can’t do it
As do you.” Nick felt the air around him shift from anger to sadness. “Your mate is out there. I’m sure of it. You will have what I have, but it will not be with Vanessa.” A dry chuckle escaped Alpha Marcus ’s lips. “It makes sense why my wolf never took to her. The damn thing has been unbearable recently.” “Give it time. She’s out there.” “We will see.” The air of the office lightened significantly. “Are we good?” Alpha Marcus nodded. “We’re good.” T he following morning came too soon. Nick had planted a quick kiss on her sleepy lips before slipping out early to meet Alpha Marcus . Vanessa was so content with Nick that she found it easy to forget all about the Collectors and the turmoil they caused. About an hour after Nick left, she got up to use the bathroom and found a small wrapped package on the sink. She opened it and gasped at what she found inside. A note read, ‘For my silver-haired goddess. It belonged to my grandmother. I can’t imagine a better use for it than brushin
Nick …” she whimpered. “Please.” He brought his mouth up to capture her lips in a feverish kiss. Nick released his hold on her wrists, quickly unbuttoning his pants as he discarded them with ease. Staring deep into Vanessa’s green-grey eyes, he planted his hands firmly on the backs of her thighs and lifted her off the floor. Vanessa wrapped her legs around his waist, as he pressed her back harder up against the wall. She rocked back and forth, the friction between them feeling delicious and tortuous at the same time. Nick reached a hand between her thighs and guided his tip to her entrance. Without waiting for him, Vanessa pressed her hips up and forward, burying his hard length inside her. Nick growled and gripped her hips more tightly. Slowly, he began to move in and out. The rhythm continually increased as Vanessa gripped his shoulders and begged for more. The sensation of fullness when Nick was inside was absolutely mind blowing. She buried her hands in his shaggy, jet-black hai
