Alina’s Point of ViewA gentle tug on my hair pulled me from the depths of sleep. My eyes fluttered open, and for a second, I couldn’t remember where I was. The cold, hard floor beneath me, the dim light filtering through the small window, it all came rushing back. My gaze landed on Kael, who was now awake, his eyes hazy but sharp enough to focus on me.I sat up quickly, wiping the drool from the corner of my mouth with the back of my hand. Embarrassment burned through me as I realized I must have fallen asleep beside his bed."I'm sorry," I muttered, pushing myself to my feet.Kael shifted, trying to sit up, but the moment he did, a sharp wince crossed his face. Instinct took over, and I reached out to steady him, my hand barely brushing his bare skin.A jolt of energy shot through me. A burning, electric spark.I pulled away instantly, my breath hitching."I'm sorry," I whispered again, tucking my hair behind my ear.Kael leaned back against the bed, his breathing uneven. He looked
Alina's Point Of ViewThe night air was cold against my skin as I stood by the water fountain, gripping the strap of my small bag tightly. My heart pounded in my chest, my ears straining for any sound that might mean danger. This was it. My chance. My only chance.Kael had promised me a peaceful life. A life free from this nightmare. I clung to that promise like a lifeline, refusing to let doubt sink its claws into me.I took a deep breath, forcing myself to stay calm as I glanced around the dimly lit courtyard. The packhouse loomed behind me, dark and silent. The patrol guards had been called away for a briefing, Kael had timed it perfectly.I shivered slightly, shifting on my feet as I waited. Hurry, Kael.A flicker of movement caught my eye, and my stomach clenched. A guard.He strolled past casually, his sharp eyes scanning the area. I barely had time to react before I ducked behind the stone statue beside the fountain, pressing myself against its cold surface. My breathing was sh
Alina’s Point Of ViewThe moment the cell doors swung open, I felt the chill of dread settle deep into my bones. Alpha Thorne stepped inside, his piercing gaze settling on me and Kael. His lips curled into a cruel smirk, eyes filled with amusement."Did you really think you could just take my breeder and fucking run?" His voice was thick with mockery as he stepped closer.Kael, despite his injuries, managed to push himself up. His face was swollen, blood smeared over his lips, but his eyes burned with hatred. "You're a monster, I wish you weren't my father!," he spat.Alpha Thorne chuckled darkly. "A monster? No, boy. I am simply a man who takes what is his. And you think I'm proud to play father to spineless little cock like you?"His gaze turned to me, and my stomach twisted in fear. Before I could react, he reached for my arm and yanked me forward. I gasped, struggling against his grip, but he was too strong. Kael lunged toward us, but two guards grabbed him and slammed him back ag
Alpha Thorne’s Point Of View I stormed into my chamber, slamming the heavy wooden doors behind me with a growl. My fists clenched at my chest, rage burning through me like wildfire. My body still ached from the strange reaction I had when I tried to mark Alina as mine. My own breeder… my property had rejected me, and it made my wolf snarl in humiliation and rage. That had never happened before. I had never heard of a failed Mating process so what was this?.“GUARD!!” I yelled in fury and my door creaked open. “Alpha” his head low“Get me Gaius now! If you have to drag him with you, do not return without him else I will have your head” I barked“Understood Alpha!!” he closed the door. I couldn't help the anger, I paced from one spot to another, my hands interwoven with each other behind my back. Memories of the pain floating in my head as I tried to make sense of it all. I didn't register how long I had spent when the door creaked open again and the guard stood at the door post “
Alpha Thorne’s Point Of ViewThe chamber fell into eerie silence as the sorcerer Gaius took his leave, his cryptic words still lingering in the air. “Fear is a powerful weapon. Use it.”A slow smirk curled my lips. I would do more than use it.. I would master it.Turning on my heel, I strode to my throne and dropped into the seat, drumming my fingers against the armrest. The rage boiling in my chest had not simmered down since my failed attempt to mark Alina. It was a humiliation that clawed at my pride like a festering wound. I needed to assert my dominance.. to remind them all that my word was law."Varek!" I bellowed.The heavy doors creaked open, and my most trusted guard stepped in, bowing his head. "Alpha.""Summon Karrik at once," I commanded. "Tell him I have a special task for him concerning my worthless son."Varek hesitated for only a fraction of a second before nodding. "As you wish, Alpha."The door slammed shut behind him, leaving me alone with my dark thoughts.Moments
Alina’s Point Of ViewThe frigid air clung to my skin as I knelt on the cold stone floor, my fingers raw and aching as they scrubbed the Alpha’s clothes. The icy water in the wooden basin stung my knuckles, but I barely noticed. My mind was elsewhere… on Kael.How was he holding up?He wasn't built for this kind of torture.. Was he even being fed?My heart clenched at the thought. He was strong.. stronger than anyone I knew.. but could he even endure the brutality of Alpha Thorne’s training? I had heard whispers of what awaited him. Men sent to that hellish camp often returned broken, or worse, never returned at all. Would Kael be one of them?No. He couldn't be.He had to return.. In one piece“Please Moon Goddess, I have never been one to disturb you, grant me just this one desire. Help Kael return in one piece” I said a silent prayer for the fifth time this week.I bit my lip, willing the fear away, but it gnawed at me, sinking into the marrow of my bones. The silence of the slave
Kael’s Point Of ViewThe sun is merciless.My legs tremble, my breath comes in ragged gasps, and every muscle in my body burns with relentless agony. Sweat drips down my face, stinging my eyes, but I barely have the strength to wipe it away. I can feel the bruises blooming across my ribs, the sharp sting of fresh cuts on my back where the whip bit into my skin earlier. My hands, raw and blistered, barely hold onto the weight I’m forced to carry."Move faster, you slug!" Karrik’s voice booms across the training field. "Or do you need more encouragement?"Encouragement. A word that, in this hell hole, only means one thing… punishment.I grit my teeth and push forward, my bare feet scraping against the rough terrain. The pack warriors around me train with precision, but I can tell they aren't being pushed like I am. It was more than obvious. They aren’t being broken, it seemed more like my father had them stock to my back.This isn’t training.This is a sentence.I push through another s
Alpha Thorne’s Point Of ViewI woke up feeling eager to see how my plot was working so far.The moment my feet hit the floor, it moved on its own accord. The bathroom was first then I got dressed and left for the East wing. The morning air around the training ground is thick with sweat, dirt, and the sharp scent of blood. I stand behind the safe room in the training grounds, watching with cruel satisfaction as my sissy of a son is forced through another agonizing drill.Kael is on his hands and knees, his body shaking with exhaustion. His muscles are tight, his breaths shallow, but karrik wasn't showing mercy he was being drilled more than the trained warriors around him. They showed him no mercy. Every mistake earns him a swift punishment either a strike across the back, a harsh shove to the ground, a demand to push harder, run faster, fight better.I relish the sight. Karrik was doing the job so well.Weakness disgusts me. And the fact that my own flesh and blood embodies what I s
~~Alina's~~The moment the door slams shut, my body sags with relief. My breath rushes out in a shaky exhale, my heart still hammering from the encounter. I press a trembling hand to my throat, wincing at the tenderness there. Thorne’s grip had left more than just bruises… it had left a clear warning. What would be the consequences if he ever finds out about us?.I glance at the torn scraps of paper scattered across the floor, my unfinished letter reduced to worthless fragments. It had taken me almost an hour crafting those words, I was at the end of the letter before he had almost caught me. If he had read those words I so passionately wrote, if he had discovered my connection with Kael…. A shudder rolls through me.I can’t let this happen again. I have to be more careful, I couldn't risk putting Kael in more problems than he is.With renewed determination, I grab another sheet of parchment from my desk. The ink bottle rattles as I hastily dip my quill, my hand unsteady but my resol
