Once Rejected, Twice Accepted What have you done?
AmandaI stood over Zane's semi-conscious body, my heart pounding with a mix of fear and determination. His shallow breaths echoed in the otherwise silent room, each exhale a reminder of the danger he posed. I had to make sure he didn’t wake up again; if he did, there would be no stopping him. He would come after me, relentless and vengeful, driven by a rage that could only end in my death. I knew Zane well enough to understand that his retaliation would be swift and merciless.The door creaked open, and my pulse quickened as I turned to see Tiana, my estranged sister, step into the room. Her eyes were wild with fury, and I could almost feel the heat of her anger searing the air between us. "Amanda, what the hell have you done?" she screamed, her voice trembling with rage and disbelief."Tiana, listen to me," I started, trying to keep my voice steady. "He was going to kill me and eventually you. You know what he's capable of."But Tiana wasn’t listening. Her eyes flicked to Zane's pr
Once Rejected, Twice Accepted We are close.
BeatriceThe sun had dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows that danced ominously around the edges of our camp. I couldn't shake the uneasy feeling gnawing at my gut. Amanda should have been back by now. As the pack's Gamma, my senses were always on high alert, but this time, something felt different—something felt wrong. I paced the length of the common room, my mind racing with possibilities, each more unsettling than the last. Amanda was strong and capable, yet the thought of her alone out there in the growing darkness sent a chill down my spine.Alex walked in, his expression a mirror of my own concern. "Beatrice," he said, his voice calm but laced with an undertone of worry. "She could just be running late. You know how she is. Maybe she found something interesting and lost track of time."I shook my head, trying to quell the anxiety rising within me. "No, Alex. This isn't like her. She knows how important it is to come back on time, we’ve gone over the plan countless t
Once Rejected, Twice Accepted This is just the beginning.
ZaneThe dim light from a single bulb flickered overhead, casting erratic shadows on the cold, damp walls. I could feel the raw ache in my wrists and ankles where the ropes bit into my skin. Amanda’s pack was a testament to her careful nature, with every tool and weapon neatly arranged, ready to be used at a moment's notice. I knew it was only a matter of time before she or one of her pack members came down to make sure I paid for everything I had ever done to them. The thought was almost surreal, like being trapped in a waking nightmare, a state of limbo where reality and my worst fears blended into one.The door creaked open, and Amanda stepped in, her presence commanding the room. She was flanked by two of her most loyal pack members, their eyes gleaming with anticipation."Comfortable, Zane?" Amanda's voice dripped with a mixture of sarcasm and venom. I tried to muster a smirk, but it felt weak and forced."As comfortable as one can be in the belly of the beast," I replied, tryin
Once Rejected, Twice Accepted You are stuck.
Amanda: A few hours earlierThe world around me was a blur, of muffled sounds and people walking all around. I felt Beatrice and Alex, their arms strong and unwavering as they carried me to safety. Each step they took sent jolts of pain through my body, as if my entire being was on fire, yet I was still numb in places. I could barely understand what was happening, my senses dulled by the agony and exhaustion. Voices, familiar yet distant, floated around me, fragments of concern and urgency mixing together in a haze."Is she going to be alright?" one voice, deep and gruff, cut through the fog. I recognized it as Greg, one of my loyal warriors, his tone filled with worry."I don't know," Beatrice's voice trembled slightly, betraying her usual calm demeanor. "We need to get her back to the pack house, now."I wanted to reassure them, to tell them I was still here, but my mouth refused to obey. My eyelids felt like lead, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't open them. Panic bubbled
Once Rejected, Twice Accepted Stop fooling yourself.
ZaneI didn’t know whether to call it luck or being blessed but if there was one thing i knew, it was that things somehow worked in my favor. It had only been a stroke of luck when Amanda was called away and by no other person but my wife. Now, alone in the dank, dark place she had put me in, I knew I needed to do everything possible to free myself or else, when she came back, I would find it much worse.The last thing i wanted to be was to be Amanda’s bait, i was far stronger and bigger than her and i had the advantage but still, i knew i shouldn’t forget that she was an Alpha, far more stronger than any other normal wolf and it would be a hard time fighting her off but i knew that i could do it especially since i was very determined.“That won’t be easy Zane, stop fooling yourself.” I sighed.Amanda had made sure that I was tied so tightly that I had no room for escape. If i didn’t know better, i would have said that she knew i would try to escape hence the reason for treating me th
Once Rejected, Twice Accepted What do you want?!
Amanda Seeing Tiana within my pack after what we’ve promised ourselves was something I didn't expect. I mean, i expected to see her after the battle was over but now, seeing her now just told me that she and Zane might have had a plan to help him escape because i didn’t really see any reason why she was here. It just didn’t make sense.“What do you want?” I said, icily.There was tension in the area, that much I could tell. What I hated at that moment was not knowing the plan that she and Zane had. It made me mad because I knew that she didn’t just come here on her own volition, there was definitely something going on and I wanted nothing more than to know what it was. Tiana remained silent like i wasn’t talking to her which made me mad because it just meant that she didn’t regard me at all and she hadn’t put what was between us behind her.“For the last time Tiana, what do you want?” I asked again.I was slowly losing my patience and I knew that I would lose it if she didn’t tell me
Once Rejected, Twice Accepted You will suffer for it.
BeatriceAs soon as Zane broke free from the binds we had put him in, I knew we were in for total chaos. I watched from a corner, my heart pounding in my chest, unable to tear my eyes away from the scene unfolding before me. It was surreal, like something out of a nightmare. Zane had turned into something unrecognizable—a monster. His muscles bulged, his eyes glowed with a malevolent light, and an aura of raw power radiated from him. We had underestimated him, and now we were paying the price.Amanda stood bravely before him, her stance strong and determined. I could see the tension in her body, the resolve in her eyes. "Zane, you don't have to do this," she pleaded, her voice steady despite the obvious danger. "We can help you. Whatever you're going through, we can find a way to fix it."But Zane only laughed, a sound that sent chills down my spine. "Help me? You think you can help me?" he sneered, his voice dripping with disdain. "I don't need your help, Amanda. I don't need any
Once Rejected, Twice Accepted Power comes with a price.
ZaneThe power coursing through me was intoxicating, a heady rush that made every nerve tingle with a sense of invincibility. I stood at the edge of the cliff, looking down at the world that now seemed so small, so manageable. It was hard to believe that not long ago, I was just another face in the crowd, another insignificant speck in the grand tapestry of existence. But now? Now I was a god, or at least something very close to it."Zane, you have to be careful," I murmured to myself, the wind carrying my voice away. I knew I was right. This power, this incredible, unearthly strength, it was a gift but it was also a curse if I didn't handle it correctly. No one could know the source of my abilities. If they did, they could find a way to strip them from me, to use them against me and I couldn't allow that. Not now, not ever."Zane," a voice called from behind, and I turned to see Riley approaching, her expression a mix of concern and curiosity. She was one of the few who had seen the
