Hades' POVWe had returned to our room even before the party was rounded off. I appointed several maids to cater for her while they helped her move her luggage towards her private district for the pack which was now termed as the Luna district.She was over the moon for the development, moving into her district that was more than a chamber. She pulled me into a tight hug and each night, I would go visit her to see how she's faring, and how her new district was treating her.One sunny afternoon, our paths crossed in the field but one of her maids requested for her attention."Attend to your maid first," I told her and a smile appeared across her chin.Before I could turn back, Dylan walked up to me and pulled me into a tight hug. I hugged him compassionately, grateful to have crossed his path in my journey of saving Brielle, and claiming her - fighting for my love, my mate."How has been the rule - the wolves under you?" I asked as he forced a smile across his chin before he retorted,
Brielle's POV"Move your damn ass forward, Brielle!" Giselle, my sister said behind me, pushing me roughly.As I turned back to mutter an apology, I was slammed with the look of disgust boldly written on her face. Everything else I wanted to say disappeared from my mind.Why did she hate me so much? I wondered, then brushed it off.I couldn't let the pawn of the devil ruin today for me. The hatred she had for me wasn't a story anymore. They all hated me, including dad and mom. At least, I will be free from them today after the auction.I smiled as I climbed the podium, feeling a tiny bit of hope in my heart. If a nice young alpha prince could just bid for me, then I had hit the jackpot. I would finally say goodbye to all the mistreatments I received from my so-called family.As I stood at the podium, I could hear my pulse hammering loudly in my throat. The unasked question lurked around the corners of my mind. What if no one bids for me?My gaze flickered from my dress to Gizelle's
Brielle's POV My whole body began to burn from within but not a single sweat dropped from my body. No way! I was standing right in front of my mate. Was that the reason he bid that amount for me? Was he aware? I felt like my heart was squeezing very hard in my chest and I could barely breathe. "Do you understand?" His cold deep voice brought me back to reality. Understand what? He must have said something, but I didn’t even hear. His blue eyes was shining behind his mask with a terrifying intensity. He looked like he wanted to hurt me. I cleared my throat awkwardly. "I understand." "Understand what?" I smiled a little, trying to ease the tension. "I'm sorry, but I was-- er, carried away." “You're smiling?” He said stiffly and my eyes widened at the impact of his voice Suddenly, he grabbed my chin roughly. "You must think I'm a joke since I bid on a worthless omega like you!" I gasped, my face filled with despair. How could he call me that? His grip became tighter on
Brielle's POVWe got to the pack and instead of taking me to alpha Hades, I was taken to a room filled with five young maidens.I thought they were also bought by him but I was wrong. These maidens were responsible for cleaning me up.Hours later, the maids had already bathed me and dressed me up nicely in a short red see through gown and a robe to hide my body from other eyes. They had briefed me about things I needed to do to pleasure him and all, which had already wiped off my memory.The alpha was seated on a sofa and he seemed to be reading a book. He still had that mask on. Does he ever take them off? I couldn’t help but wonder.I knew I wasn't that attractive and all, but this was never my idea of a mate. I had always wished to have a kind and loving mate. But here I was, tangled up with a murderer whose face is hidden in a mask probably because he looks like a beast. I cleared my throat to gain his attention but he didn’t even look up. I walked up to him and then out of pure
Brielle's POVHis face beamed with pleasure as I muttered his name. I never imagined I would be confident enough to say his name."Hades..."His eyes gleamed intensely, screaming his impatience to strip me off my rob and get the job done. I sighed shakily, expecting the worst to happen. I wasn't going to die in his hands. There surely must be a way out if I realized I wasn't satisfying him in bed.It's either I took to my heels or my bones got ripped out. Each step we took towards his glorious bed, each time my heart leaped to my feet. I wasn't scared to engage in the act for the first time; I was scared I wouldn't satisfy him.Suddenly, he dumped me onto the bed aggressively as my red dress tore apart from his stoic touch. I diverted my gaze from his eyes since I couldn't interpret what his stares meant."I'll do it myself!" he repeated and immediately began taking off his clothes. I stole a glance at his wardrobe and was a bit shocked to see just a few clothes there."Face here, litt
Brielle's POV"Why are you waiting?" He asked, transfixed to a spot, "use the door. Didn't you want to?"His eyes were radiating furiously and I wasn't sure what his plan was, for me. Once I sighted his wolf morphing, I would hurry out of the room but his voice was calm, yet threatening."You wouldn't leave unscathed when I get to you," he said and began to approach me. I quickly turned the doorknob but the door didn't budge. Was I so daft to be unable to open a door like this?As he got closer, my heart beat faster and I became more aggressive at the door."Don't spoil what you didn't create!" He screamed at me, suddenly grabbing me by the jaw and pinning me to the wall. If there was a literal explanation of eyeball to eyeball, then it was now. I could look straight down his eyes as well as him. He chuckled softly when he noticed my persistent stares."I kept on but you stopped me. Even without my permission?" He asked, his tone laced with a mixture of calm and threat."I-I'm sorry,"
Brielle's POV"Don't go after him," the stranger warned, "if he's not interested in speaking with you, I'd suggest you stay away from him.""Do you know how I got here?" I simply asked and he shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly, "since you don't know how I got here, don't meddle with my affairs."After saying that, I hissed and walked away but I heard his response before I was out of sight."Same way I won't meddle with your affairs when he rips your bones out," he said and chuckled slightly. I shook my head at him and walked faster to catch up with Hades.As I almost caught up with him, he entered the room and slammed the door shut. He must have done that so quickly and deliberately. I sighed anxiously, directing my eyes towards the stranger but I rolled my eyes and walked towards another direction in the pack. If I returned to him, he would mock me for not obeying his words.Again, there was a room available and it was spacious enough but this time around, I did hope I wouldn't bump
Brielle's POVI held her hands softly, whispering into her ears, "be more quiet. Don't inform your colleagues, please."But she excitedly responded with loud voice, "it's goodness, madam Brielle!"Everyone in the room looked towards my direction suddenly, expecting us to say a word so their suspicion would be confirmed."Just keep quiet." I mumbled to the leader but she turned to face her colleagues as she let them in on the news. It seemed every word I spoke did invert before reaching her ears. Why was she bent on doing the exact opposite of what I said?I struggled to get up and shush her but one of the maids quickly rushed to meet me as she laid me back to bed while the leader began to speak."Madam Brielle is pregnant, guys," she said and they wowed at the news. It was surprising to me as well and I would be glad only if the father of the kid was my favorite. The only person that had ever slept with me was the ugly masked Alpha, same Hades, the well known sadist Alpha. Tears began
