CHAPTER 3

last update Last Updated: 2024-10-10 11:42:05

I heard a loud whistle and I looked around from where the sound come.

I knew it meant danger, I had heard that sound in school many times.

My eyes darted round in fear.

"Hey ogre!!" I heard a loud voice from behind the abandoned house in beside me.

Spencer McHaton.

"Medium rare!!!" Another gruff voice called out as my heart beat loudly in fear.

"Leave me alone!" I cried out in fear as I hurried away from the lonely road I always took home.

As my feet took me hurriedly away, I was not looking at my front until I bumped into a wall, hitting my chest and I fell to the floor, scraping my hands in the process.

"Where are you running to Princess?"

When I opened my eyes, shaking away the thundering headache that was suddenly in my head, I came face to face with the wall had stumbled into.

Harper, Spencer's fraternal crazy twin.

"I don't want any problem please, leave me alone please. I just want to go home" I cried as I saw my bleeding arms.

"Are you calling me a troublemaker?" Harper asked as he looked at me with a grin too wide for his face.

"No, Harper please. I didn't do anything" I cried as I cleaned my tears.

"She's calling you by your name now? When did she grow such balls?" Tatiana asked as she came up behind me, and soon all the others came in and towered over me on the floor.

"No, please. I'm hurting, just let me go home "I cried.

"Why? We heard what you did to Lucy, you lying ugly conniving bitch."

"Who knew an annoying piece of shit like you can be two faced? You had the mind to betray her?" Jojo said and stomped on my foot.

I cried and held my leg.

"Stop please!" I sobbed.

"Why? We're just here to return the favour. Maybe give you a taste of what you gave out"

"I swear I didn't do anything to her" my chest heaved with cries.

"Are you calling us liars? You're calling sweet Lucy a liar?" Imani snickered at me and I shook my head vigorously.

"No that's not what I said" I tried to clean my eyes.

"Oh, so you're the liar? Are you agreeing to the fact that you are a cheap, ugly looking, betraying snake?" Jerry asked chewing his gum and smiling.

They were enjoying my suffering

"No..."

"Yes?" Harper replied for me before I could finish taking "Then you need to be taught a lesson"

Oh moon goddess please, I need help. I thought in alarm.

Harper grabbed my leg and tried to pull me towards the abandoned house.

"No, no, no, please!" I struggled and tried to fight back but Spencer grabbed my other leg.

They all high fived each other laughing as I cried in misery. 

“Leave her alone!" A very loud voice from behind us stopped them.

They stopped moving and turned to face the owner of the voice.

Caine's mouth was billowing smoke and his other hand stuck in his pocket.

"Caine man, what's up? Where have you been all these days" Jerry went up to Caine and tried to shake hands with him but Caine pushed him away to the side.

"Let her go" he repeated to Spencer, without blinking or smiling, only the smoke coming out of his mouth as he spoke seemed real.

They all looked at each other in surprise and Harper and Spencer let go of my leg harshly.

I scrambled to my feet and stood up to dust my clothes.

"What is this Caine? I thought you said you were not going to interfere in our fun time, what's this sudden change?" Spencer said, visibly annoyed as he walked towards Caine.

“Go home you all, i don’t have time for this today” Caine said and it sounded like a low warning.

"Come on man, what's this?" Spencer said and stretched his hand for a hand shake as soon as he got to where Caine stood smoking.

"Since when did you decide to become a pussy to that ugly..." Spencer did not finish talking before Caine's fist connected with his jaw sending him to the floor.

We all gasped, including me as I stared at the sight in front of me.

"Go home. Make me repeat myself again and see what happens" Caine threw away his cigarette butt and crushed it with his leg.

“Let's go" Tatiana helped Spencer up but he pushed her away and stalked off angrily and the rest of the group followed him.

It was now remaining i and Caine.

“That includes you. You blue eyed little human”

Those were the first words Caine Creek had ever said to me.

"Thank you" I said to him and winced as the cold air stung my open wounds.

"When are you going to stop saying thank you and actually fight for yourself?" He asked me and I saw his jaw move angrily.

"I... I Uh.." I stuttered

"You should not be here" Caine said and my heart dropped into my stomach.

"What?"

"You're not a wolf, you are not even human? What the fuck are you? And then the moon goddess decides to make you my..."

His what?

"She decides to put you in my pack, I'm so ashamed that you belong to us. My father made a mistake accepting the Union between your parents" Caine said and my heart broke finally.

"Don't say that" my tears started to flow again, my voice was barely a whisper now.

"And now look at you, small, red hair, blue eyes, weak, we're not even sure you can change. And worse of all you're..."

"Ugly?" I finished off for him.

"I never called you ugly" Caine exhaled and stuck his hands in his pocket.

I only scoffed and wiped my tears.

“You’re no different from them” I said finally before turning and walking away.

That day my feelings for him died.

I hated Caine Creek.

    "I'll give you a moment to clear out your locker alone. The classes are going on now, so you have enough time to get what you want and leave without any drama" The school principal, Miss Johnson, said to me after my mother told her on the phone that I was leaving school.By now I'm guessing half of the parents in the pack would've heard about the drama between my parents.I told her to plead with Miss Johnson to make my move as stealthy as possible, because I knew how much mockery I was going to get if the other students knew I was leaving."I heard about what was going on between you and the other students," she said behind me as we walked to my locker. "You lost so much weight," she added after I didn't say anything.She knew about it.The whole school knew about my bullying but no one did anything about it, they rather enjoyed it."I'm sorry I couldn't do anything about it, and I'm sorry about your parents" she said."I heard your father found his mate.

    JASMINEThe silence that followed was deafening, almost scaring me out of my position. Caine stood before me, eyes seeing around like he’d just found a lost treasure. “I’m searching for Lucy. Any idea where she might be?” I asked, exchanging glances with the rest of the group. “Errands,” Caine replied. His voice sounded thicker and deeper than the last time we spoke. “Ohh…when she returns please tell her I stopped by,” I said to him and turned to leave. “Jasmine,” he called. I halted in my tracks and turned to him. He seemed to be contemplating approaching me. At first I thought he was seeking approval from the rest of the gang. Hell no. He was freaking Caine Creek. He didn’t need anyone’s approval. He gestured for them to leave, which they did. “You…just show up from nowhere after how many years?” He asked, covering the gap between us. There was no need to be scared this time. I was better than the last time we stood this close. The closer he got, the harder my heart raced. I

    JASMINEThe tension between us was undeniable and I cursed myself for even acknowledging it. Caine leaned against the door frame, shirtless with his hands folded across his chest. His eyes scanned me all over again, like he was trying to figure me out all over again. “I’ll wait outside then,” I said to him and turned around to leave. “Maybe you haven’t heard but the pack is not as safe as when you left. We get surprise attacks at any time of the day. People go missing, dead bodies sprawl out of the ground almost every morning yet, no one has answers to these happenings,”“I’ll advise you to come in and wait,” he finally made his point. I won’t lie, the mention of getting attacked at any time of the day sent my heart racing. With a deep, regrettable sigh, I took another turn and made my way into the house. He locked the door and joined me shortly after putting on a shirt. The room was surprisingly clean for a guy like Caine. He wasn’t this arranged six years ago. I perched at the ed

Caine led the way, getting to Spencer before the rest of us. “What happened?” He asked, helping him in. I checked outside the door to confirm there was no one else out there. It was clear. “The diner,” Spencer choked on his blood. “He needs to be attended to. Clear the table,” I assisted Caine to carry him. The rest stood, looking at me to confirm if I was actually dishing out orders to them. “You heard her!” Caine barked as we hurried across the room carrying Spencer. Imani and Jojo cleared the table, giving me the opportunity to get down to a work I had learnt on my own and practiced with Bryan. “Take his clothes off,” I told Jojo before rushing to get a bowl of water. After my mother moved in with her new family, her whole attention focused on them, I found ways to defend myself. I learnt how to stand up for myself, defend myself and treat my wounds. I

I’ve barely been back here and they won’t let me breathe properly. As my vision cleared, so did my hearing. It wasn’t just chattering. They were moans. Loud and clear. The girl…sounded so much like Imani. But I recalled the tone of the voice that knocked me into unconsciousness. It was masculine. “Right there Jerry,” the Imani moaned, loud kisses following after. Why did she sound like he was torturing her. To mage it worst, they were in plain sight, having sex infront of me. Couldn’t they hold themselves until they got somewhere closed?And what wasn’t I understanding? Imani is supposed to be with Jojo. Or did something change in their cycle of relationships?She went down on her knees, taking in his cock which just slipped out of her vagina. I swallowed, feeling every nerve in my body twisting against the sigh

    CAINES POVI stood before the grand mirror in my chamber, my reflection staring back at me, hollow-eyed and unrecognizable. The blue ceremonial robes draped over my shoulders felt heavy, suffocating, as if they carried the weight of every choice I hadn’t made for myself. The deep blue fabric was adorned with intricate silver embroidery, the symbol of my family stitched proudly into the chest. A reminder of the duty I could never escape. The servant attached the last piece of gold ring to my finger and took a few steps away from the mirror. “All set,” he bowed. Today, as per tradition of the house of Creeks, my marriage was to be held in the old traditional ways. Given the kind of line we descended from, our marriage process usually involved various types of rites. First, we would go to the river to get bathed under the moonlight. Also, there was the one of getting the head of an antler from the woods.A third was also mentioned to me, which involved the Sheet's reveal. It was con

    CAINES POVDistant murmurings filled my ears as I stirred awake. My eyes fluttered as they received the rays from the white light hanging above my head. For the first few seconds, I was blinded by the light. After what felt like minutes of waiting, the light got dim, giving me a chance to take a view of my environment.“He’s waking up,” a voice said. It sounded muffled like he was speaking to me or someone else with water in his mouth. I tried to turn my head towards the direction of the sound, but a sharp pain shot through my head.“Ouch!” I winced, reaching to hold my head. The pain seared through, touching every nerve as it sent cold signals down the rest of my body. “Easy son,” my father's voice said. His footsteps rang in my ear like they were stepping on glass placed beside my ear, and I was forced to close both ears with my palms until I felt his hand on my neck. “You’re fine. You’re with family,” he said. Slowly, I let go of my ears and turned to him. He was still standing

Her body had gone cold, and he was massaging it with a warm towel. I sat across the sitting room, watching him while Adrian got himself engaged in a discussion with some adults outside, sitting around a fire and passing bottles of drinks. “Is it always this quiet?” I asked, taking the first step to speak since I realized he was bent on saying nothing until Liz woke up. “Not always,” he replied. “Liz bore some type of light. Her absence must have dimmed that light. The reason why most of the women have refused to settle until they see her,” he said. A few hours after Adrian compelled the crowd that gathered in front of the house, some women stopped by again to see Liz. I was the one who spoke to them, giving an excuse that she would be back from her evening walk. Two more hours passed since I did that, and they

    BRYANS POV“Liz, please.” I followed her behind, keeping up with her quick strides as she made her way back to the house. “It’s just going to be for a few days,”“A few days?” she turned to me. “Those…few days…as you call it, is enough to bring this little home down. You and I know how much effort we put into securing this place, into the protection of this land. Yet you want to sweep it under the bus all because of what?” She snapped.I sighed, seeing that this was already a lost argument. In our territory, we had no alpha or king. But we had people recognized for their strength and influence. My father was one of them, and that made him one of the most respected people in the rogue lands. Marrying Elizabeth, and her neutral ability to fight a warrior that she is, bestowed that same respect on her. Her say was final, and if she refused to grant me my request, no one else would. I glanced at Lucy who was watching from a distance, then back at Liz. “This one time, Liz. I promise to

    BRYANS POVI parked the car at the front of the house, leaning back into the chair as I pulled the keys out. “This is my home,” I answered Lucy. She’d been curious ever since we headed out, probably because I chose not to handle this her way.Funny enough, this was her first being here despite how many years of dating. I kept this part of my family away from the world due to the amount of love I had for them. We were, however, seen as rogues. Perhaps that’s who we are. Lucy has always known that I belong to a rogue pack. She just didn’t know what pack it was. Seeing the shock on her face only made me more excited.“I thought you said your home was taken away from you? she asked, leaning forward to get a proper view of the people moving from place to place ahead of us.“I did say that. But you should have understood what home I was talking about,” I told her. My first home, which I referred to as the home I never met, was the Creeks mansion.I grew up in the outskirts of the city,

The machine was fried, leaving most of its wires dancing by its sides.The smell choked me, forcing me to cough. With my elbow, I shielded my nose, while my eyes scanned the room for her.I spotted Bryan lying in the middle of the mess. Several things collapsed on him, and I thought I saw blood streaming from underneath one of them. My instincts kicked into Ron to his aid, which I did immediately.“Bryan,” I called, taking the things that obstructed my path off. They were a lot—from the woods from a frame, to some parts of the machine that exploded, and a part of the wall that crumbled in him. He groaned as he struggled to get himself free from the mess.“Don’t move. You’ll only make things worse,” I said. I searched around for an easier way through the mess, and that was when I spotted my

    JASMINES POVI took a deep breath in, lifting my face from the position it had dropped to after the energy surged through me. I expected it to have been strong enough to burst me out of the straps, but I guess it did what it could do—throwing her across the room. “What have you done!” Bryan yelled, taking quick strides across the room. His fingers wrapped around my neck, squeezing it with every strength he had in him. “What did you do to her?” “You should… probably step away,” I struggled to speak. He glanced at Lucy—she was regaining herself from the pieces of wood that shattered on her body, burying her in the pile. “You ingrate!” He cursed. His grip loosened around my neck with force, giving me the chance to take in as much air as I’d been deprived. “Get me out of here!” He coughed, choking on my words. Bryan left to attend to Lucy. He assisted her to her feet, and I could still see the rage in her eyes. It was there, lurking behind the pain that came from shock. She grasped

My entire body was cold, and I could feel my skin resting on cold metal that sent a shiver coursing through me. I blinked against the bright white light, forcing my eyes open finally. The first thing that hit my nose was the strong metallic scent of blood, mixed with something else—chemical perhaps. I could hear the echoes of distant voices before they dropped. Then, everything rushed back in a blur. The memories of what happened—was it a few minutes ago? There was no way to know what time it was as everywhere was dark except the white light flickering at the center of the room. My body stilled for a moment, then I made a move. A sting pierced through my legs, sending a jolt of pain running up my spine. I winced and lowered my head to see what it was. My legs were chained. Likewise my hands—were strapped to the metallic

    JASMINE’S POVI slammed my fists against the door, frustration bubbling in my chest. There had to be another way, but I couldn’t see anything in the dim glow of my wolf vision. The rusted gems from the statue were the key—I was sure of it—but going back for them meant wasting time.Caine didn’t have time. And I could feel something in my guts. Something about the whole situation didn’t sit right. My wolf stirred restlessly in my head as I ran my hands around the steel door, searching for something—anything. Still, I found nothing. “Damn it,” I cursed under my breath, giving the door one last kick before turning back the way I came.I raced up the narrow stairway, my footsteps silent against the old stone floor. The moment I climbed out through the stairs, I hurried back to the statue, checking the tray and around the floor to see if there were remnants of the gem in them. All empty. All roads lead back to the main entrance. I had to make it through. Not just making it through, but
