I could hear the other boys cheering Lincoln on as he continued to touch me. Their laughter only fueled his desire, and the victorious look on his face was enough to make me feel sick to my stomach. But suddenly, I found the strength to push him away. I quickly got off of him, slipped back on my pa
I woke up to find myself in a completely dark and empty room. My heart started racing as I realized that I had fallen asleep and everyone had left the school. I quickly got up from the floor and looked around, but there was no one in sight. Panic began to set in as I realized that it was already eve
"Answer me!" she yelled. "What are you doing here?" "I-I was just going to the market," I stuttered. "I wanted to buy something." "Something?" she sneered. "What could you possibly want to buy that's so important?" "I-It's just a dress," I said quietly, knowing that I had been caught. "A dress?"
I stood there for what almost felt like an hour while they discussed among themselves and laughed hysterically from lame jokes which Evelyn would usually use me as reference. As the day wore on, my stepmother's anger subsided, and she eventually sent me to inside. But the memory of her words and t
"Mate! Mine" he rasped, his eyes trained at me. As I looked at Lincoln, I could see the shock etched across his face. It was as if he had seen a ghost. He stepped back, his eyes wide with fear and his mouth agape. I couldn't understand what was happening. I had never seen him like this before. My
Lincoln soon burst out laughing awkwardly. I was worried about why he was laughing. Was it because he was nervous? Was he mocking me? "Did you really think I would mate with you, Emily?" he said, still laughing. "You're not even worth it." And then he grabbed my neck and began to choke me. I tried
"Answer me!" she yelled. "What are you doing here?" "I-I was just going to the market," I stuttered. "I wanted to buy something." "Something?" she sneered. "What could you possibly want to buy that's so important?" "I-It's just a dress," I said quietly, knowing that I had been caught. "A dress?"
I could feel my heart pounding in my chest as I carefully snuck out of the house, making sure not to make a sound. The window had to be undone from the outside, and I knew that it was my only chance to escape from this prison. I closed the window carefully behind me, making sure it looked like it wa
They were right, it's been years since we heard that I won't be able to give birth again, a change might happen in another year. Then all of a sudden, I heard the sound of the breaking of the air and I quickly dodged to the side. Then, I felt a stinging pain on my waist. When I looked down, I saw
But whenever I remember the look on their faces before they turned back at me and the fact that I still had their mark on me, I would lose the courage to hurt myself. Also, there was a part in me that wanted to take revenge for my daughter but in the condition that I was in at that point, I could n
EMILY'S POV. My face was a mask of resignation, a facade that concealed the raw ache of my sadness, my true emotions hidden beneath a carefully crafted veneer. My movements became slow and deliberate as if the weight of my sadness had settled upon my bones, making even the simplest tasks laboriou
"What took you so long? Did you forget that we were waiting for you?" The mean looking woman said but I just kept quiet without saying anything. "Now, that everything is done, I hereby use this chance to banish Emily from this pack, she will not enter the vicinity of the pack no matter what, now s
B..but, I was helpless. There was nothing I could do, I did not want them to suffer for my mistakes. They've not done anything wrong and it was all my fault so I should suffer for my mistakes. "Stop dilly-dallying around, let's do the ritual." The old man said again and I finally stood up weakly.
EMILY'S POV. "She can't stay here any more and that's final, if you continue to disobey, you will be sent into the pack's inner dungeon for ten years or even more." The hunched old man said and my heart skipped a bit Inner dungeon? Why were they so cruel? In every pack, there must always be tw
Although I had wondered who could be behind it all, I was not so bothered about it because it was exactly what I wanted. My plan had started to work too. I also told Matt to start spreading rumors about Emily's inability to give birth to any other child. I wanted to start shaking the brother's foun
"The others are also the same, they believed that following you would not do any good and they won't be able to gain anything and as you know, those people are only after gains and profit, so it is rational that they stayed behind and turned their back against you." "So, My Lord, how will you do it
LARRY'S POV. After spending some years alone and in pain, I finally realised the usefulness of power and status. Without power, no one would stay with you but I realised it too late and when I was at the gate of death. I was tired of working for or with my brothers, I wanted to work for myself. I
