Aww đ I feel sorry for poor Esmeralda. I couldn't imagine the horrors she passed through in Phoebe's hands. She is such a strong and brave girl. I feel sorry for her. What do you think about this chapter? Drop your thoughts. See you tomorrow.
Esmeralda Nightmares. Despite being at peace with my new life, I was disturbed by nightmares. Nightmares during the day, nightmares during the night and even in my sleep. It haunted me everywhere I went, lurking in the dark, seeking the slightest opportunity to pounce on me. It was so real, I almost had a panic attack. No matter how I try to dismiss it, her face keeps coming to my mind. It was stuck there, I couldn't erase it. Her face, her screams, her half-dead look, her measured words, her cold stare. All of it. They lived rent-free in my head. It was so vivid, so clear, it was like I could see her. It was like I could hear her whisper those words to me every time I chose to ignore her. "Help me," It was like I could feel her cold intensive stare burning my skin each time I turned deaf ears to her pleas. It was like she was here with me. Waiting patiently for me to save her. Her fears were so primal, I could almost sniff it as if we were in the same room
Esmeralda Struck with fear, I took to my heels, missing my step in the dark room and falling to the ground. But that didn't stop me from standing on my feet almost immediately and seeking refuge. I panted hard, placing my hand on my chest to steady my breathing, but it failed. Was she referring to me? Of course, who else was with her? But It was difficult to tell who she was talking to as her face was pinned to the floor. Not in my direction. I wasn't sure if she saw me because the chair she sat on backed me. Only one question rang in my mind. Who was she referring to? "You, little..." She began talking again, but stopped, hissing loud in irritation. Woah! So she could talk! "What do...you...want?" She stammered, struggling to catch her breath. I was here to save you, silly! Unable to do anything as fear clouded my mind, I took a few steps backwards till my back touched the cold wall. I didn't want her to see me. Despite her face tilting away from me, I could
Esmeralda The deafening screams of a high-pitched voice ruined my beauty sleep. My God, I was about to kiss Alpha Kade in my dream! Our lips were so close that we took in each other's breath. His plump lips were about to consume mine, but thanks to the screams, everything went in a blur. Hissing loudly in irritation, I turned to my side, covering my head with a pillow, to block the screams, but it didn't work. Nothing worked. I just wanted to drift back to sleep and continue kissing Alpha Kade' in my dream. Was that too much to ask?! As if that wasn't enough, a loud knock sounded on my door, spiking my anger. I growled loudly in disapproval, "Go away!" I yelled, burrowing further into my bed and curling myself up in a ball to resume my sleep. The knock grew louder and more persistent, completely ruining my mood. It was like the person was sent on a mission to break my door. Whosoever that person was, I hope he is happy that he just ruined my morning. "Who the
Kade I stood erect behind the door, masking my scent to avoid being sniffed out. Rumours had been flying around lately. Rumours of how my sister, Amelia was improving. Of course, I had laughed it off at first. How was it possible for Amelia to improve in less than a week, especially without a professional caregiver by her side? I didn't let it get to me, It was just side talks to make me happy. To make me feel Esmeralda could heal Amelia. Even when it was glaring that she couldn't. No one could. Amelia had been damaged beyond control. She cannot be redeemed. Even the best doctor in the human world confirmed that. But it was a shame that Esmeralda thinks that some mere talk and songs could do the magic by making Amelia herself again. What a joke! I almost laughed at her to scorn her stupid act of bravery the evening I saw her sneak into the North wing. But on second thought, I didn't. I quietly left her to do her thing with Amelia. I intentionally left the wing
Chapter 89 Esmeralda My gaze swept slowly across the room before they rested on Amelia who was snoring soundly, unbothered by the sounds of our make-out. How did she sleep so deeply without turning? Not even for once. The sounds I made were enough to wake her up. But she lay there, like a dead person. "Are you ready...for this?" He asked again with an urge in his voice. "In here?" My shaky voice sounded as my gaze landed on Alpha Kade, "Right now?" "If that is what you want," He said, pinning his gaze on mine as if studying me, "I wouldn't do anything that is against your wish," Ugh! Right thing, wrong place. "You can tell me if you are not comfortable with it. I would understand that it is your first time and I would wait for you," His fingers trailed a line from my thighs till they brushed my damp panties, "Until you are ready," Oh no, was he opting out already? "I am kinda ready, but I'm not sure I want to do this here," I muttered, resting my eyes on Amelia b
Chapter 90 Esmeralda "Ahh!" I screamed in excitement at my second climax, grabbing a fistful of the sheets with my mouth agape. It was so intense, I thought I'd lose my senses. Though he had stopped his sweet torture, my core still shivered from his touch. It was like I could feel the top of his fingers on my clitoris, rubbing and teasing it. Making my juices drip from me once more. Even in the absence of his fingers, my legs quivered greatly. I could feel him everywhere, I could feel his magic fingers all over my body. Panting hard, my eyes met his, pleading with him for a short break. Even without sex, foreplay with him was draining. My orgasms sapped every bit of my energy, leaving me exhausted. "Don't tell me you are tired," He broke the silence, interrupting my words, "Don't even give me that look," His face hardened and his gaze narrowed at mine. "I told you, little mate, I won't stop until you scream my name while begging for your third orgasm. But since you a
Chapter 91 Esmeralda My heart raced in excitement as I stood at the entrance of the door, patiently waiting for the only person my heart yearned for. My best friend forever, Selene. It's been weeks since I saw her beautiful face, but it felt like ages. Nothing made sense without her as she was not beside me to share my moment of sadness and joy. I wanted to share every moment with her. Despite being happy and fulfilled for the past few weeks, I couldn't help but feel a space in my heart. It was like my happiness was not full. A space that needed to be filled by her presence. Our separation created a space in my heart, an empty space that even Jade couldn't fill. Jade left after finding out I was Luna. But Selene would never leave me no matter what I became. She was such a sweet innocent soul. My gist partner. We could talk all day long about anything without getting tired. If she were a male wolf, I would have loved to be her mate. I had acted fine for weeks of
Chapter 92 Esmeralda "Leave me alone!" A scream tore from the distance. It could be heard throughout the house. I recognized that voice immediately. Amelia's voice. Another scream rang in the air, followed by faint feminine voices. It sounded like they were trying to curb the noise, but it already got out of hand before they could do anything. "Who is that?" Selene asked, rolling to her back and stretching her neck to see the origin of the scream. "Oh, it's Amelia," I replied calmly, "She can be like that sometimes. It's nothing serious," I dissuaded her. "What are they doing to her?" Selene asked, furrowing her brows and sitting up, "Is she alright?" She asked in a worried tone. "She is absolutely fine. And the question you should be asking is, what is she doing to them?" I corrected, stretching my body before allowing my mouth to widen in a yawn. A frown descended on Selene's face, making her eyes sunken, "Poor girl, is she fine?" "She is..." I dragged my words
If you are reading this right now, you don't know how much grateful I am. It takes a lot to start a book from the beginning, but out of the many hundreds that started this journey with me, you chose to finish this book without considering my long breaks, grammatical inaccuracy and all. I really want to appreciate you from the bottom of my heart. I'm glad you invested both time and money into my book. Bless you all. I know the way I ended the book didn't please some of you, but it's the best I can do. I also didn't like the way I rushed my book, especially the part two. At least, Esmeralda and Selene got their happy ending. I planned on making the part two at least 30 chapters, but I have to study for my examination. It's next month and it's already here. I don't want to leave you hanging again. After my exam, I can write as much as I can because I'll be a graduate (BA) I'm studying English and literary studies đ This chapter was intended to appreciate those that spend time, gems, a
Chapter 114 (T.R.O.P) Esmeralda I had almost finished meditating on my powers when my stomach growled in hunger. The more I tried to focus on building my strength, to control my powers, the more the war in my stomach doubled. When I couldn't take it anymore, I got up from the floor where I knelt, picked up the piece of cloth that I knelt on and went inside the house. I almost missed the melodies the birds filled my ears with. I love nature and it helps me concentrate better. It fuels my strength when I draw powers from it. A smile crept on my lips when a delicious scent wafted my nose. I couldn't wait to devour the new recipe I just tried. I decided to try out a recipe that I found in an old jotter in the kitchen. I was sure it belonged to the man's wife that owned the house. After several hours of mixing, frying, stirring and boiling, it came out well. Even though I turned the kitchen upside down. I couldn't wait to try out more recipes in the book when I get
Chapter 113(T.R.O.P) Esmeralda A sigh of relief slipped off my lips, "Home sweet home," I muttered tiredly as I walked into the 'old house' as Selene often referred to it. Staying in the old house was my idea which she hated because it belonged to an old couple that died several years ago. The house was built in an old-fashioned way to Selene's distaste. But I cared less. Whether old-fashioned or not, the house was warm and comforting. It reminded me of my mother's house. The option of moving to my mother's house was a tempting one, but I discarded the idea. I didn't want to be reminded of those memories. As far as I was concerned, they were dead and buried. And I had already moved on. I strode to the dining table tiredly, poured some water from the jug into a glass cup and gulped every drop of it down my throat. My throat was almost on fire! The sun was merciless and I had exhausted the water in my bottle. Worst of all, I and Selene were the only ones here. I w
Chapter 112(T.R.O.P)EsmeraldaThe night was long and terrifying. I couldn't sleep all night as I was afraid of what he would do to me. The sounds of his constant mumbling, groaning and jerking kept my eyes glued on him. And his cursing too. Sometimes, he whispered words that sounded like pleas while sometimes, he shouted from his sleep like someone was after him or chasing him in a hot pursuit.It was strange because I had never imagined anything could make this monstrous Alpha behave vulnerable in his sleep. I couldn't fathom what was happening to him but I knew it was a dream. A bad dream. His worst nightmare. But what kind of dream frightens the Alpha of the Dark Moon Pack? Suddenly, he woke up, gasping and panting hard. My blood almost froze when he shot me a deadly glare. But after a few seconds, he went back to sleep. It didn't take long before the jerking began again. The second time was the worst. He jumped on the bed like he saw a ghost in his dream and dashed out
Chapter 111(T.R.O.P) Aphelion Impatient, I banged the door repeatedly with my large fist, ignoring the person's sleepy voice as I banged it again. "Fucking answer me," I cursed with shaky breath, swallowing hard as I was partly consumed by fear. Yes, you heard right. The Alpha of the Dark Moon Pack was afraid. If it were by some lousy Alpha, I would have understood, but it was by some strange woman. A woman from my nightmare dressed in green robes with strange strawberry hair. My breath hitched when the cold breeze swept up on my skin and I quickly turned back to look into the darkness. I could feel her flaming emerald eyes giving me a haunting disapproving look. And that evil grin plastered on her face...and her words that left me in shock. My heartbeat quickened as my eyes roamed the darkness. It was like she was here... watching me... haunting me... And in times like this, there was only one person I needed⌠"Open this fucking door!" I tried to use my Alpha vo
Chapter 110 (T.R.O.P) Kade "Alpha," Lucas, my Gamma called, bringing me out of my deep thoughts. I snapped my head at him, accessing him shortly before signalling him to come in. My heart skipped a beat when he walked into the room. I tried to keep my emotions in check, but my heart won't stop pounding in anticipation. I didn't miss the surprised look on his face as he walked into my room with his mouth slightly ajar. My room was as messy as hell. It looked like the third world war happened here. Things were scattered everywhere, including broken objects. He carefully navigated his path, avoiding the broken wine glass on the floor before bowing briefly to me and stopping to watch me. Just go straight to the point! I shifted uncomfortably on my seat, watching him eagerly to speak. Don't look desperate, Kade. But fuck it, I was desperate. I've never been so desperate in my life. Since he wasn't going to speak, I'll go first. I hope it was a positive result. "A
Chapter 109 (The Return Of Phoebe) Esmeralda "Move it!" The guard yelled, rough handling me. His hard hands grabbed my slim arm as he dragged me into Aphelion's bedroom. Anger rose in Emerald's chest as she growled at him. Angry at his behaviour, she took over from me. "You better stop that act and behave yourself," He growled back, his face reddened in anger. "Let me go, punk," Emerald screamed, wiggling to set herself free from his firm grip. "It will be my pleasure to slap some sense into you. But the Alpha will not have it if I did," He hissed. Despite Aphelion hitting me, he instructed his subjects not to lay their hands on me. "I am Luna. Show some respect!" Emerald bit his dry hand, attempting to escape. But he was quick to catch her and lead her into the room. "Fucking bitch!" He cursed, tightening his grip on my arm till the area turned bright pink. I whimpered in pain as his fingers brushed over the bruised part. Emerald's mouth won't put me in trouble.
Chapter 108 (The Return Of Phoebe) Esmeralda My eyes flew wide open in surprise and my hand covered my small mouth that wouldn't stop opening. How did he know I was Alpha Kade's mate? I shifted uncomfortably as his aura caused me to tremble greatly. His aura screamed so much power, dominance, hatred, anger, pride and other scary things. Whoever this strange man was, he was up to no good. I could feel it in my bones. His smirks say it all. They were evil and dark. And his eyesâŚthey screamed how cruel he was. They didn't hide how much they hated me. There was also something sinister about the way he looked at me...with so much disgust as if I had buried myself in a pile of dirt. He was ferocious, so mean, so evil, even Emerald trembled in my head, despite how unconscious she was. His evil aura affected her greatly. Despite being ferocious, he was not as ferocious as Alpha Kade. While Alpha Kade behaved ruthlessly, he still had some good buried deep down in his sto
Chapter 107 (END OF PART ONE) Esmeralda Another three days came and went, another three of pain and suffering. Another three days of enduring the torture that my mate had sex with another woman. How could he? How could he do that when he knew how much pain it would cause me? He was not ignorant of that, yet he chose to torture me in this manner. This was the worst treatment I had ever received. Even the harsh treatment from my former pack couldn't be compared to what I felt. Not even the dreaded horsewhip stood a chance. I was dying. The pain was killing me rapidly, eating me up from the inside and leaving me in a mess. I cried all day till I no longer had tears to shed. Was that how much he hated me? By fucking a whore for three days?! I spat in disgust as a bile of anger rose in my chest. I hate him. I hate everything about him. I regret the day I met him. And for what he has done to me, I will never forgive him. The thought of him in bed with another
