Alexis’s POV I never thought that I would be able to sleep after the horror I’d been through, but exhaustion took over. I was thankful I had Elara in this pack. The morning light made its way to my room through the window. My back was healing but I knew it would still take a while before it fully healed up. I got up from my bed and with every movement I made, I felt pain. Elara was late this morning and I did not know why, so I made my way to sort myself out and took a cloth from the closet. Suddenly, I heard a knock at the door. I was hoping it was Elara but the person didn't come in so I walked to check who it was. A woman in her late forties stood at the door, her expression was cold. She didn’t say a word as she looked at me. “I’m the head omega. You are to work today,” she finally said. “Alpha Kane’s orders.” She added. I nodded. I didn’t need her to explain what that meant. I was being punished further, forced to work even though I was in pain, with the injuries that made e
Alexis's POVMy muscles ached from the long scrubbing, and the pain of yesterday’s punishment still lingered on my back. I was on my way back, to find the Head Omega and tell her that I had finished when I saw Elara and she had walked towards me. She said she was coming to get me. When she said the words, the trauma of yesterday night hit me back. I was scared and I wondered why she was coming to get me. I hadn’t seen her all morning, she had always woken me up, prepared my bath and picked out a dress for me. When I heard the knock on my door, I thought it was Elara but the person didn't come in, it was then I knew it wasn't Elara. I wondered why she hadn't come this morning and was she forbidden to attend to me after helping me last night.“I was just coming to get you,” she said, “It’s time for lunch.”“Lunch?” I asked. “But I haven’t…”“I know. They told me not to attend to you this morning,” she explained. “I would have come earlier, but I was instructed to stay away and assign
Alexis's POV Every day keeps getting tougher but now I'm getting the hang of it. I'm gradually losing hope. It wasn't certain I would leave this pack anytime soon. I once believed that Alex would find all means possible to get me out. Now I'm starting to wonder if that was even still possible.I had lost track of the days. The endless cycle of work, and exhaustion was now burning me out. Every morning I was always awoken by the knock on my door, the Head Omega’s voice barking orders. Cleaning, scrubbing, mopping, like I was a slave they were trying to break. Alpha Kane was still pissed about hitting him with a bottle but I don't regret doing it.Even as my body ached and my hands were raw from scrubbing, I held on to the one thing they couldn’t take from me, my will. It was all I had left, and I clung to it even when the days seemed to be so long like an eternity.Today was no different. I had finished my task and just retired to my room when a knock came. A guard that came the night
Alexis's POV I left the dungeon feeling a heavy weight on my chest. My hands were still trembling and my heart was pounding in my chest. Each step I took back to my room was heavy, my feet dragging as if I were moving through snow. The memory of the guard’s lifeless body, his throat being slashed and blood rushing out was repeatedly playing in my mind and I couldn’t shake it off. When I finally reached my room, I barely made it to the bed before collapsing on it. I didn’t bother with the covers or try to get comfortable, I just lay there, staring up at the ceiling, trying to process everything I had just witnessed even the images kept replaying in my mind, Alpha Kane’s cold eyes without pity in it, the sound of the whip and the guard’s cries for mercy.The tears came down from my eyes. It was hot and uncontrollable. I put my face into the pillow as I sob into it. There was no one to comfort. I have been damned into this hell. I cried until there were no more tears left for me to cr
Alexis POV When I heard a knock on my door, I thought Elara had brought me dinner but when she didn't open the door I knew it wasn't Elara and I had to go to the door. When I saw the guard I felt an unsettling chill creep up my spine. I knew something different was about to happen. I was traumatized from the last experience and every time I see these particular guards, I feel like something bad is going to happen and ruin my night."Alpha Kane has requested your presence for dinner," the guard stated.Dinner. With Alpha Kane. In his private quarters. I sort of felt relieved when I heard it was dinner but in his private quarters means I will be alone with him.I had learned to fear such summons. I could not help but ask myself what Alpha Kane was up to this night. Was this why he relieved me of my duties today? Alpha Kane loved to play games. My stomach twisted into knots as I nodded silently, knowing I had no choice but to follow the guard. When we were walking through the corridors
Alexis's POV Ever since I stepped into this pack I have been having different nightmares. After I slept last night. I dreamt of what happened at the dinner. I saw Elara’s terrified eyes again, as the guard dragged her away and I felt haunted. I wondered how long she would survive this place, how long any of us could survive. The next morning, I woke up with a slight headache. I hadn’t slept much, because of my dreams. I couldn’t stop thinking about Elara. Where was she? Had she survived the night? I went to find her yesterday night but she wasn't in her room. “Where could she be?” I muttered to myself.When the sunrise light entered through my window, I dragged myself out of bed. Usually, Elara would come to my room early to help me get ready and bring me breakfast but she was nowhere to be found this morning. I was feeling anxious as I waited, each minute feeling like an eternity. I kept convincing myself that Elara was fine, that she had endured worse. Finally, I couldn’t stand
Alexis's POV I struggled against the guard’s grip, but it was no use. He was much stronger than me, and my feeble attempts to free myself only seemed to amuse him. I saw another guard who had possibly been patrolling nearby came to meet us.“What is going on here?” He asked with a superior tone.“We caught her trying to escape.” One of the guards replied with respect.I knew instantly the guard was in a higher position.“She broke the lock and almost got out.” He explained further.“Return to your position, I will take her to the Alpha.” He said and the other two guards left immediately. I knew there was no point in struggling at this point. “Follow me, now.” He said to me as he motioned me to walk ahead of him.I had no choice but to obey, I knew I was caught and nowhere to turn to. I have alerted the whole mansion and the guards will be more alert now.Fear and panic grew inside of me. I knew what was coming. I knew that trying to escape would only bring more punishment, but I co
Alexis's POV All through the night, I couldn't sleep. My failed attempt at escaping kept playing in my mind. I could only think of what I could have done or what I shouldn't have done. If I had gotten through that door, would I have gotten my freedom? What was more surprising was the fact that Alpha Kane didn't ask me to be locked up or beaten after I was caught yesterday. I expected the worst yesterday but to my surprise I only got more tasks as punishment for trying to escape.It was morning already and I haven't still see Elara since the other day. I wished I could try to see her but I haven't been allowed out of the mansion's premises since I came to this pack. I was about to get up from my bed and get my day started when the sound of my door opening startled me and in hopes to see Elara, I saw the Head Omega walking into my room. Scanning me and my room with a side eye. “Get up, girl!” Agatha’s voice barked at me.“You should learn to wake up early and tidy up.” She scoffed a
Alex's POVA month laterI was relaxing at home after training when Alpha Mark sent for me. I sat on the porch of the cabin I shared with Alexis, sipping a cup of coffee.Alexis was back from work. She had been trained on how to teach young pups basic things since she had always loved to have kids around her. She was reading a novel beside me on the porch. We had been through a lot and thought we had found a life here. A new beginning, we called it. Away from our parent's tainting.The sound of footsteps approaching us made us alert and turned to the direction. I looked up to see Killian, a pack member of Greenwolf walking towards the cabin. Killian was a newfound friend that we both got to be a lover of the game.“Good afternoon,” he greeted with a smile.“Hello Alexis, looking beautiful as always,” he teased Alexis as he always did.“You've come to get your ass whooped as usual,” I joked. We both played soccer around this time of the day. “Don't get over your head, I might just co
Alexis's POV He groaned, his tongue slipping into my mouth again. His hand glided over my shirt and he pushed back, kneeling in-between my legs as he unbuttoned his shirt, while I pulled my top over my head. I felt Alex's hand grip the waistband of my pants. I lifted my butt so he could remove them and he dropped them off by the side of the bed before staring down at me.Tyson kissed me gently, his lips moving against mine and he sucked my lower lip in his mouth. Sparks rush over my skin when grinded his hips against mine. His erection pressing against me and I gasp at the feel of the sparks rushing over my skin straight to my pussy.His lips devouring mine as he tastes every inch of my mouth, his tongue demanding as it fights mine for dominance which I let him have. His hand moved down my side and he growled against my lips when he cupped my breast. I rolled my hips against him, my hand moving down his chest and abs to pants. I pushed it down a little, his dick now free as he took o
Chapter 130Alexis's POVTwo Weeks LaterLiving here in the Greenwolf pack these past weeks has been incredible and one of the best things that’s ever happened to me since Alpha Kane kidnapped me to the Nightwolf pack months back. It's been peaceful. The shadows of Julia and Richard lurking in the shadows no longer loomed over us. Their punishment was out of our hands now, with the council in charge. All that mattered to me was that Alex and I could finally move forward without looking over our shoulders. Alpha Kane was dead too and the new Alpha was in no way interested in us. I leaned against Alex’s shoulder as we sat curled up in the living room of the house we’d been given, watching a movie. I had never imagined that after everything, we would find peace in such a simple way. I glanced up at him, taking in the relaxed smile on his face. He pulled me closer in between his laps, placed my head gently on his chest and I felt my heart skip a beat. “Do you like the movie?” I asked s
Alex's POVThe Next DayAs I stood in front of the Shadow Pack’s central gathering hall. I had an important task at hand. Exposing my parents' horrible deeds.The thought twisted my stomach. It wasn't an easy task but I knew it was something I had to do. It was time everyone else knew what they've been up to eventually and I would never want to be caught as an accomplice covering up their evil acts. Alexis stood beside me, her hand gripping mine tightly. Her presence was a reminder of what was important, of why I had to do this. We had both been victims of my parents' twisted ambitions. She had been kidnapped, just like me, raised in lies and manipulated for power.After the fight settled, I had called Beta Conor to inform the elders and pack members that I would love to address everyone before the coronation day. Beta Conor didn't question me since I was going to be the new Alpha. He knew he had to do whatever I wanted so he didn't get on my bad side. The elders were inside, along
Alex’s POVThe Moonlight was meant to make the atmosphere peaceful on a normal circumstances but today its gives an unsettling feeling to the turmoil within me. The air was thick with tension, and I could feel the weight of it pressing down on me. My heart pounded in my chest at the thought of what we were about to do and the danger it holds.Battleground isn’t on my favorite places to be and have been doing more of it this past few months. As I crouched behind the tree line, I glanced over at the fighters from the Greenwolf pack who had come to help me. I looked into their face and the realization that I was bring some of them to their graves dawned on me. Yet, they knew what was at stake. My eyes scanned the area ahead, and I could see the goons guarding the place where Alexis was being held. Alpha Kane was here, his car with the his pack's crest was packed outside and so were his warriors. I gritted my teeth. A big coincidence to be here say night he's here as well. Thank the Mo
Alpha Kane’s POVSitting in my office, I stared out the window at the night sky. My thoughts raced, circling back to the one thing I couldn’t stop thinking about, Alexis. It been weeks since she left. The Elders are now growing impatient, constantly asking where Alexis was and when the Luna ceremony would finally take place. I had tried my best to come up different excuses like telling them she was visiting her parents, but I knew that lie wouldn’t hold up much longer.Richard told me she was back to the pack but he didn't wants to bring her back right away so he can put Alex under control but now he had called.Alexis was being held at the outskirts of the Shadow Pack. He said I could come and get her.That smug bastard. Richard had been playing me from the beginning. He had promised me Alexis as a term for our alliance and I had no choice but to take her as my Luna, despite knowing she wasn’t my mate. Richard had later revealed while we were searching for they that Alexis and Alex
Alexis’s POVIt had been a few hours since Alex left the house. He went to see Anton in town. After much thought about what to do, we felt the right thing is to bring in someone more powerful and influential. I wasn’t sure what was making me feel so uneasy, but the nagging sense that something wasn’t right refused to leave me. Maybe it was because of what happened the last time he left me alone in the house or it was just the after-effects of everything I had been through in the past few months. Whatever it was, I couldn't shake it.I tried to distract myself by checking through reels online. But none of it helped. Then, I heard the front door open. I went outside, expecting to see Alex but instead, standing in the doorway were Julia and Richard. “Lexis, how are you doing sweet?” Julia asked, with a sweet smile as she walked towards me.“I'm okay,” I said, turning my back to leave.“What of Alex?” Richard asked, scanning around with his eyes.“Out to get things,” I responded quickly
Alexi's POV A few days later, I was summoned to the Council meeting. They told me they've consulted the pack shaman and a date will be picked soon for the Alpha's coronation. I might not be able to undergo the necessary training. They want to hasten the whole process. I sat in the room and I couldn't help but wonder how the Elders would react when they found out my parents had been orchestrating and manipulating lots of things going on in this pack. Richard expected to make a move during the meeting but I said nothing and after the meeting, I slipped out to avoid unnecessary talks. I knew after I left, there would be other talks between the elders so I made my way home quickly. Julia was busy. She was in charge of getting the whole thing needed for the coronation.On getting home, without wasting any more time, I grabbed my things and made my way back to the Greenwolf Pack. The drive felt like it took forever. I kept imagining Alexis in some cold, dark place, held prisoner because o
Alex's POV “Fuck,” I banged the steering wheel. All hopes were dashed when my instincts told me I was being followed. Meeting Alpha Mark was meant to be a secret but unfortunately they knew I was up to something now. We've been portraying the good children since we went back to Shadow Pack and tried to uncover things in secret. We've looked for clues at home when our parents weren't around. Checked out their study room and the documents but nothing. After Ophelia said every lead she gets has been a long list of dead people, I knew this was out of my hands and my parents were too influenced, the more reason I had to involve Alpha Mark. Now I'm being followed which says a lot. Whoever was following me must be working for my parents or Alpha Kane, yet Alpha Kane will still have to report back to Richard. I stepped on the accelerator and drove faster, turning in different directions, to confirm the black sedan car was trailing after me and I was right, it took every turn I took as wel
