*FREYA*We arrived at a mansion that was in the middle of nowhere and I couldn't help but feel surprised because I had a feeling that Tate was hiding something about his real identity.He opened the door to his house gesturing me to come inside but I refused to move a muscle.He cocked a brow at me and crossed his arms over his chest."Won't you come in? I'm sure that you must be exhausted."A man who was wearing a butler's uniform came to welcome him and called him master and that only increased my suspicion."Who are you, Tate? If that's even your real name."He stared at me in disbelief."I'm your friend, the guy who helped you escape from the dark tide and if I had evil intentions I would have turned my back on you before we even came here or I would have killed you."I sighed deeply.Maybe I was just overthinking this whole thing.Our eyes locked and of course he won me over and I raised my hands in defeat."Look I'm sorry Tate it's just hard to trust people especially after what
SIX MONTHS LATER*FREYA*That moment all made up this new version of myself and whenever I looked in the mirror I saw a monster staring back at me but this was different because I learned to embrace the monster inside.I was born to become a weapon designed to destroy mankind and that's what exactly I'll do without hesitation.Being away from the real world gave me a lot of time to think about what I actually wanted to do for my life and if my goals haven't changed they still remain the same.I still want to see Lain suffer.I've been patient enough and I've waited for six months. A couple of hours won't make a difference.Tate found me standing outside the patio watching the clouds."Thought I'd find you here, are you having second thoughts? Tomorrow is the big day and I believe that you're finally ready."I turned to look at him."No one is going to change my mind and I haven't worked my butt off just to quit when I'm so close to achieving my goal."He nodded quietly."Do you think
*FREYA*This is what I've always wanted to see Lain suffer and be vulnerable. I wanted him to pay for what he did to me. It took six months to achieve my goal.Tate stood beside me."Remember your training Freya no hesitation or else you'll give the prey a chance to attack you."I nodded quietly looking at Lain.Our eyes locked and I saw Axel controlling Lain and I raised my hand to finish him off."Freya, wait."I stopped mid air glaring at him."I know that Lain fucked up and I wish I didn't have him as a host but I'm stuck with him for life."I cocked a brow at him.He was wasting my time."Freya he's buying more time don't listen to him it's a trap" Tate warned in a low tone.Axel got up and raised his hands in the air."Before you kill Lain, think about the pack and how the members are going to feel after losing their alpha; it will be like history repeating itself all over again." I scoffed in annoyance."You think I'd change my mind over some petty pack that abandoned me? Come
*LAIN*Velvet was gone and this time I had a feeling that she wasn't going to come back. I guess everything worked out for the best but something Still bothered me.I still couldn't understand why Freya chose to leave with that vampire. Was he her lover?I needed to find out everything about him and find a way to get her back here.Axel scoffed in annoyance."Are you hearing yourself right now?" He asked in disbelief.I shrugged carelessly."Okay maybe I was wrong about not having feelings for her but I want her back and this time I mean it from the bottom of my heart."I'm sure that his eyes have widened in shock by now."Just leave her alone Lain and by the way I'm done cleaning after you so you better figure out your own shit." I smiled to myself."Come on, there's no hard feelings here Axel. All we need to do is probably say that we're sorry and buy her some flowers and I'm sure she'll take us back."Axel remained silent and sighed deeply."Look Freya deserves someone better and
*FREYA* I laid on the bed unmoving after the incident at the pool. I don't know what the hell possessed me when I kissed Tate. What the hell was I thinking?"Ember, why didn't you try to stop me? I've definitely made things weird between us now and he'll probably kick me out of his house now."Ember sighed deeply."Perhaps it's because you like him. I've definitely seen you checking him out a few times."I groaned deeply."That's not even helping, are you trying to make me feel worse?" I closed my eyes and opened them again and all I could think about was his lips.He didn't even tell me what was bothering him after the kiss. He looked really disgusted and that's why he walked away.I opened them again and tears filled them."I messed up big time, Ember. How do I fix this?" I whispered softly when the first teardrop rolled down my face.It felt like my heart was crumbling into a thousand pieces all over again and this time I brought it upon myself."Don't cry Freya there's always a
*FREYA* My eyes jerked open when I heard the floor creaking with footsteps. I turned on the lamp."Tate?"There's no way he would be sneaking around the house just to scare me. It was very unlikely.There was no response so maybe I was just imagining things. I turned off the lamp and went back to sleep.It was just a matter of minutes when I felt someone clamp their hand over my mouth silencing my screams and my training kicked in.I grabbed his arm trying to lose hold of him but my vision began getting blurry and Ember fell first before we could call on our fire.My eyes slowly closed on their own accord and I fell into a deep sleep taking a glimpse of the man before I sank into oblivion.I saw Drex and I'd never forget his face even if I wanted to and I'm sure that the dark tide must have sent him.Those people will never rest until I'm finally dead but I will find a way to get out of this and I know that Tate will save me.This time I'll be the one to kill them with my bare hands
*FREYA* I didn't want to believe him right now but yet he sounded very convincing with his words but if it's one thing I've learnt from Tate is that trust no one but yourself.Lain cupped both of my cheeks staring into my eyes and like all the pain he caused me would disappear in an instant.It's been months yet the pain still feels raw and I still feel pissed off."Freya..." He gasped quietly and I swallowed hard when his voice sent a shiver down my spine.I shook my head negatively.No.I can't let him get into my head. He'll screw him over and throw me to the side like unwanted furniture."I think you should leave." I muttered quietly and he cocked a brow at me."You're kicking me out of my own room?" He taunted me, making me frown.This was his plan all along; he wanted to trap me with him."Fine then I'll be the one to leave. I'll be going to a guest room or at least share a bed with Aniko."Before I could leave he grabbed my arm stopping me and I glared at him."Freya, don't ma
*FREYA*It's my first day back in the pack and let's just say that I'm not excited to see anyone anymore because they all didn't care about me when their alpha sold me to the dark tide.They might be smiling at me but deep down I know that they all spite me and they'll just pretend to like me.I was making myself a bowl of cereal when someone grabbed it and threw it to the ground . I watched the bowl break into a few pieces and all the cereal was on the floor.I sighed deeply and looked up meeting the person's face and it was none other than Velvet.The stupid bitch was still holding a grudge after I stole her man a few days before her mating ceremony.I cocked a brow at her and crossed my arms over my chest."Hey Velvet I missed you too" I taunted, forcing a smile.She scoffed in annoyance."Everything was going well until you showed up and ruined things for me why didn't you just fucking die when the dark tide took you in? If I'd known that you'd survive I would have made sure that
