Chiara

The sudden impact of my head hitting the wall brings a wave of nausea down my body. For a moment all I can do is blink and try to get rid of the specks that dance in my eyes.

Noemi and Vittoria loom over me, closing the door behind them.

“You fucking bitch,” Vittoria mutters. “I don’t know what gave you this arrogance but I’m going to beat it out of you!”

With that, she reaches over and pulls my hair, but I catch her wrist just in time. Noemi sneaks out of nowhere and grabs the back of my shirt, tugging it hard and causing the neckline to push against my throat.

I start to choke, and Vittoria takes that as her chance to pull me to my feet by my hair. She slaps me once, and in a daze, I try to retaliate by doing the same. But this just causes her to pull my sleeve and rip the seams of my shirt. They both laugh, and Noemi starts to tug down my pants, stripping me against my will.

I know what they’re about to do. This is something they always took part in at Monamour when the

    ChiaraWhen I go back to the room with the dress in a bag, Alessio is no longer there. The one waiting for me now is Gio.“Where is he?” I ask, trying not to show that I’m disappointed.“I’m afraid I can’t answer that,” Gio just says in a clipped tone. “Let’s go.”With that, he takes me back to the mansion. Marie and Kana meet me by the door, and when I arrive at my room, I see that they already prepared makeup and styling tools. Wordlessly, as though they’re told to be quiet, they both begin to work on me, assisting me in the bath first.When I’m done, Kana curls my hair and twists it up into an elegant knot with tendrils framing my face. My makeup is done by Marie, and it’s subtle, just highlighted by the red lipstick that’s the same color as my dress.Before leaving, Kana hands me a box. “From Master.”“Thank you,” I mutter, caught off guard. I look up at her to ask when she talked to him and if she knows where he is, but she leaves promptly.Really keeping a tight gag on things, h

    Chiara Am I dreaming?This is the question that keeps popping up in my head as I blink rapidly. I haven't seen Dad in what feels like years, and now it seems like his features are all wrong. The only thing I remember now is his beaten-up face from the last night we saw each other. The night he betrayed me and gave me away as payment.All the resentment and the questions rise up my throat like bile, but the only thing that comes out of my mouth is, "What the hell are you doing here?"He eagerly sets down the tray on the nearest table, gaping at me like a fish out of water. "Chiara. Oh, god I've been looking for you everywhere!"He tries to reach out to me but I slap his hand away. "Do not come any closer, or else I'll call the guards and tell them you're being a creep."Visible hurt flashes across Dad's eyes but I find that I don't care. Why would I? He literally tried to pay his debt by giving me away. He only ever cared about saving his own skin."I'm sorry for everything," he start

    AlessioThe whole night is now ruined.I know that I basically just hired Chiara to be my pretend girlfriend for the night, but I feel oddly bereft when I watch her walk away. Everything inside me screams I should come and follow her, but Evelyn puts her hand on my arm and stops me.“She’ll be fine,” she murmurs soothingly, motioning her guards to stand back and leave us alone. “Stop worrying so much about her--”“She’s not exactly familiar with this kind of scene, Evelyn,” I cut her off, trying not to sound too cold. “I am her protector.”She grits her teeth but she disguises that as a smile. “Well, I do hope she’s alright with you having . . . private arrangements with me, like we agreed on.”I tilt my head. “I’m not sure I agreed to that, Evelyn. We did talk about me coming here, and I did. I think we both know what you’re asking for, but I am a committed man. You are a beautiful, wonderful woman, but my heart belongs to her.”I expect her to throw a tantrum because of that, but sh

    ChiaraWhen I heard someone going into the bathroom, I immediately crouched under the sink, holding the fire extinguisher in my hand tightly like it was my last line. Because it just might be.I can’t see who entered the room, but I can just about make out a figure kneeling on the floor and dipping his fingers in the pool of blood. He gets up and opens the cubicle doors one by one as though to inspect, so I decide that it’s my time to stand and force this fucker to leave.“Don’t move,” I threaten, reaching up to position the fire extinguisher over his head.He turns around, which surprises me, so I whack him on the forehead with the metal case.“Fuck!” the man yells, and he sounds familiar.I drop the fire extinguisher in shock. “Alessio?”“Chiara.” He sighs and I can feel his hand on my arm. “Why the hell did you do that?”“I. . . .” I falter, shaking my head. “I didn’t know who entered and I got scared and I--”“It’s fine, let’s just get out of here.”With that, he pulls me out of t

    Chiara Alessio takes a deep breath, holding it in like he’s bracing himself for something that will hurt. A wave of apprehension comes over me, and for a moment I hesitate. But he turns to face me and I can still see a clear signal. He wants me to do this. He’s begging me to do this. My hands are shaking. My breathing is also erratic. But I still gather every ounce of courage I have to hook my fingers behind the mask and slowly ease it away from his face, letting it fall to the floor with a soft thud. Then I look down to see his face for the first time. And Alessio de Marco is the most beautiful man I have ever seen. There is no other way to describe him. He’s just . . . beautiful. Like something so good that it’s almost unreal. High cheekbones, sculpted jaw, straight nose, pink lips slightly parted. The thing that remains to be the most mesmerizing thing about him is his eyes, which are deep-set and more striking than I thought, emphasized by eyelashes as dark as his eyebrows.

    ChiaraI swallow hard, trying to control the rush of heat in my veins, but it’s useless. I can feel Alessio all over me, flowing in my bloodstream like alcohol.“Beautiful,” he whispers as he slows down his pace, pulling down the dress leisurely. When I look down in embarrassment at how hard I’m breathing, he cups my chin and makes me face him again. “Keep looking at me. I want to see you.”I open my mouth to tell him that I can’t take it anymore, that it feels too good, but he interrupts me by flicking the top of my dress down and exposing my breasts. The fabric gets caught in my taut nipples, making me gasp as pleasure zaps my body.He smiles, lowering his mouth on me until his lips touch the top of my breasts. I throw my head back, threading my hands in his hair and moaning. I begin to move my hips but he grabs them and puts me in place, stopping me from grinding on his hard throbbing length. He drags his tongue down, flicking my nipples before slowly sucking on them.The pleasure

    ChiaraAlessio zaps me with his fiery gaze, letting out a low growl that brings shivers down my spine. I stagger back and trip on a rock, falling flat on my back.His monstrous side is starting to take over, and I know that any minute now, he will turn into a beast that I will never recognize.But then, to my surprise, the fur on his skin starts to retract. The curve in his spine straightens again, and his teeth shrink until he can speak again.For a brief moment, he’s just Alessio. The man who I very nearly fell in love with tonight.However, the struggle is still there. I can still see the monster trying to break out. I can almost hear the internal debate happening behind those golden eyes, and I know that sheer willpower is the only thing that’s keeping me alive.“You need to leave, Chiara,” he says, and his voice is two-toned. There’s another voice in the background, raspier and darker. “You have to go right now.”“You’re a monster,” I whisper, the sound of betrayal in my voice ra

    AlessioMy biggest mistake is thinking that I can overcome the full moon.I knew that the night of the party would fall on a full moon, and I was confident that I will not wolf out in the middle of it and end up killing everyone. And I did great the whole night. The urges were there, but I contained myself.For the first time, I felt like an actual normal human.But of course, this illusion is short-lived, because not even hours after, Savina and many more from my past come back to haunt me and kill people in the process.From then on, I knew everything would just start going downhill. I was anxious and angry, especially when I found out that Lazaro infiltrated the party just so he can tell his daughter to stay away from me.I didn’t and still don’t think that anything about that is wrong. I want Chiara, but what I want for her more is her safety. But she came to me, asked me to show her who I am, willing to forget everything else if I just showed her that I’m not the monster that her

    ChiaraDays pass. Then weeks. Before I know it, a whole month passes, and when I wake up with this realization, I just feel like a gigantic weight has been lifted off my chest. Life goes on, I realize. No matter how bad the situation is, my life still goes on. And so do the lives of others. The past month proved that. Since the war between Cavaliere Ombra and Arcieri Luminari ended, so many things changed. Not only in the world of the Wolves, but also in the world of humans.Evelyn was the saving grace during the first week, when what we needed to do in the most urgent sense is to make sure that none of the humans are convinced or even remotely suspicious about the existence of humans that turn into monsters. She asked Gio’s family for help, and they were happy to oblige.She had to jump through hoops and use her connections just to get all the news outlets to convince everyone that it was just some kind of bomb exploding in Milan by an armed vigilante group.

    ChiaraWhen Alessio tackled Alpha Salvatore all the way down, I felt so helpless that I immediately considered jumping down to his aid.But as I look down from above, I see Dad crawling on the ground, trying to get upright. That strengthens my decision. Instead of going down to the chasm where the two men are, I back away and remain at the edge, kneeling beside my father and touching his face.“Dad!” I say in a shaky voice, feeling his skin getting cold. “Dad, hold onto me.”He turns around and I see that there’s a big bleeding gash on the back of his head too, an injury that he must have acquired somewhere else.To my horror, his body looks ruined. Mangled. The fall that he took crushed him. My eyes well with tears. “Dad, come with me. Let’s get you to safety.”“No.” He tries to shake his head and blood comes out of his parted lips Miraculously, he manages to get to his feet. “No. You help your mate. Help him win. You can lend him your power. I will be right behind you.”I swallow ha

    Chiara As quickly as I can, I get to my feet and intercept Alpha Salvatore before his claws can come remotely close to Alessio. I pull him out of the way, flinging him to the side where he cannot be touched, then I turn to Alpha Salvatore and try to deliver the strongest kick I can muster aimed at his chest. He steps back just in time and avoids my blow. That simple motion alone makes me realize how fast he can go. He ends up pressing himself against the wall, smiling at Alessio and me. Alessio positions himself in front of me, determined to put me away from harm as much as possible. This time, Isaac doesn’t seem all that interested in stabbing or wounding us. He’s just observing us from his spot, that smug expression prominent and his growing smile chilling. My skin gets covered in goosebumps. “I suppose I should be proud of you, Alessio,” he suddenly says, his voice a soft croon, the tone someone might use to refer to someone they are especially fond of. “After all, you’re my gr

    Time seems to slow down right before my eyes at that very moment. My breath gets stuck in my throat. I can feel my mouth opening and from it comes a high-pitched scream, but it still takes me a while to realize that it’s coming from me.I collapse on the ground, clutching Dad’s body against mine. Alpha Salvatore just watches me, holding his hand up and freezing everyone around me like he did with me earlier.I know I should keep fighting. I know I should strike back. But seeing Dad bleeding and coughing blood against me is pulling me apart. It’s like my heart is being torn out of my chest, and all I can think about is that time when Dad told me about my mother.Now he’s here, his breathing getting more and more erratic as the seconds tick by. I hold him tighter against me, wanting to comfort him but no words come out of my mouth.But he turns to me, struggling to breathe, and when I look into his eyes, the message is clear.“Get him for me.”That’s when it all clicks for me.Without h

    ChiaraThe energy in that side of the area seems to have shifted in an instant. Alpha Salvatore slowly advances towards us, and I can see that the women standing in front of me are all staggering to back away from him like his mere presence is causing some kind of disturbance.And I don’t blame them at all. I can feel myself getting compelled to do the same, to hide and avoid this fight at all costs. There’s something about his gaze that feels sinister, like there’s no single ounce of humanity left behind those eyes. There’s only the monster that he felt he should be like, powered by the spirit that he corrupted.Alpha Salvatore smiles at me, showing his sharp fangs. I couldn’t help but notice how much he looks like Alessio but at the same time how different he is.Chills run down my spine as he leisurely gets close, and even though I’m scared to death right now, I come forward, ready to block him from attacking.However, he just raises his hand as a signal.For a second I thought tha

    ChiaraThe moment I saw Dad smiling proudly, my urge to slap someone has never been so strong. It’s like a demon possessed me, and before I knew it, I’m already pushing the others away to get to my dad.But instead of slapping him like I originally intended, I end up pulling him for a hug.Then I settle with slapping his arm.“What the hell were you thinking?” I demand, and to my horror, tears start to fall. I bury my face in his shoulder and reluctantly, he hugs me back, rubbing the back of my neck. “I thought something bad happened to you!”“Hey,” he says consolingly, holding me at arm’s length. He smiles at me and wipes my cheeks. “I wasn’t going anywhere, darling. I just thought that hey, maybe I could help. I mean, I’m the only human in this pack, even with your boyfriend losing his wolf and everything.” He looks at Amari. “I’m sorry for causing all of you this trouble, and I hope I didn’t overstep something by inviting everyone here.”For one tense second, it seems that Amari wi

    ChiaraWhen I wake up, it’s like everything is submerged in a lazy, peaceful haze. It’s so warm and so good to be safe in Alessio’s arms after a night of making love that I almost forget what situation we’re in and what we’re supposed to face.I lay there with my eyes closed, purposefully forgetting it for a while.But of course, the world is just simply not built to let me have some peace because as soon as I close my eyes, commotion breaks out from outside the bedroom.There are loud screams and crashes, so loud that even Alessio flinches and sits up in alarm. Still in a groggy voice, he turns to me and asks, “What the hell is happening?”“I don’t know,” I mutter, at first feeling annoyed, but then I hear a blood-curdling scream that sounds like Savina. I turn to Alessio, who’s already handing me clothes.He dresses up as quickly as he can as well, basically wriggling into his clothes. We both burst out of the door at the same time, and that’s when we see about a dozen warriors tryi

    AlessioI can feel myself zoning out as I slowly process the things that Savina just said. I stand in my spot, feeling sick to my stomach, propping my hand against the back of the chair to keep myself steady.Denial is rising in my throat like bile, and for some reason my brain could come up with a thousand ways to justify everything. I want to argue with Savina and tell her that Cavaliere Ombra couldn’t possibly come up with such a risky plan, with something so big it has a chance of being foolproof.But the more I think about it, the more my justifications seemed stupid.Of course Father would do something like that. Of course he would want to announce to the world that he’s the strongest, and of course he would do that by invading an entire city.And everyone in that city would be food for monsters.Meanwhile, everyone in the dining hall is starting to speak over each other, covering the fact that they are disturbed with attempts of denial. As I start to slowly emerge out of my rev

    AlessioI step back, looking at the kneeling woman before me and wondering what the hell happened exactly, what moments led to this. It’s almost a dream, and I’m not entirely sure I can trust myself enough with this.Savina looks up at me and I see that her eyes are filled with tears. But I can’t hold eye contact for more than a couple of seconds. I look at Chiara and Amari, who are walking side by side heading towards me. Their eyes are both pinned on Savina, and I could tell that they are both ready to attack.Meanwhile I just stand there like an idiot, wondering if this is some kind of elaborate trap that I’m too dumb to see.Because everything just happened so fast. One moment, I was fighting with Rafael, who has turned into this monster human hybrid that didn’t seem vulnerable to any attacks. Then just as he was about to finish me off, he vanished into a puff of smoke because Savina stabbed him.I’ve never seen that before. Ever.So the only thing that I manage to ask Savina is,
