"What are you doing?" Alpha Albrecht's voice was low, almost a growl. "I… I'm doing what you want," I replied, my voice trembling. "I'm not resisting." He stepped closer, his eyes narrowing. "Why the sudden change, Catriona? You've never been this… obedient." I met his gaze, my heart throbbing aggressively. His eyes scanned my body, lingering on the bruises and marks. His hand reached out, fingers brushing against a particularly dark bruise on my arm. I flinched but held my ground. "You're different," he muttered, more to himself than to me. "Yes, Alpha," I whispered, lowering my gaze. He tilted my chin up, forcing me to look at him. He studied me for a long moment, his expression stern. Finally, he nodded. "Get dressed!" "Huh?" I blinked, surprised by his command. If I remember correctly, he actually forced his way into me on this day.

Will she follow her quest for vengeance, or embrace a future she never imagined?
Voir plusIn the blink of an eye, five days passed. Alpha Albrecht wasn't around, which wasn't unusual. He often disappeared for days without a word, leaving me in the oppressive silence of his mansion. No servant dared talk to me, whether he was around or not. The isolation gave me time to reflect on myself and my memories of the future I desperately wanted to survive. That evening, I wore my usual big white polo and black joggers as I stepped out to the garden, seeking solace in the beauty of nature. The flowers were in full bloom, their vibrant colors a stark contrast to the darkness in my heart. I walked around the pack house until I halted in front of one apartment. I took a deep breath, trying to calm my racing thoughts when I suddenly heard a familiar voice call out my name with agitation. "Catriona!" I turned and saw my stepsister, Kimberly Barclay, standing beside Finlay Donald, the son of one of the elders in the pack. Finlay Donald, the man I risked everything for in th
"But… I thought…" I stuttered. "Get dressed," he repeated, cutting me off with his voice leaving no room for argument. I quickly picked up my clothes and dressed, my hands shaking slightly. He watched me the entire time, his gaze piercing. Once I was fully clothed, he stepped closer, his presence overwhelming. "Tonight, you'll stay here alone," he commanded, his tone final. "But remember, Catriona, I'm watching you. Any sign of deception, and you'll regret it." "Yes, Alpha," I replied, keeping my voice low. As he turned to leave, I let out a breath I hadn't realized I was holding. This was just the beginning, but I had made it through the first encounter. I had to stay strong. My second chance was just beginning, and I wouldn't waste it. As Alpha Albrecht left the room, I took a moment to look around. The room was grand and intimidating, filled with dark furniture and heavy drapes. Memories of the future, of how he had tortured me in this very room, flooded over me. The
As we walked down the corridor, my heart pounded with fear. I had to stay calm, stay smart. This was my chance to change everything. As the car door closed behind me, I took a deep breath. This time, I wouldn't let anyone manipulate me. I would definitely fight back. The car started moving, and the reality of the situation began to sink in. We were actually headed to Alpha Albrecht's mansion. The thought shook my entire being. What was he planning to do with me this time around? Why had he ordered his men to pick me up from the hospital so suddenly? I glanced at the men sitting on either side of me. Their expressions were stern, giving nothing away. I could feel my pulse quickening, panic bubbling up inside me. I had to stay calm. I had to play along, at least for now. A thought crossed my mind. 'What if he's planning to torture me as usual? Or worse?' The memories of the future, of the pain and suffering, were still fresh in my mind. I couldn't let that happen again. No
My reflection stared back, eyes wide and filled with terror. The girl in the mirror looked ready to shatter, and I felt that same fragility within me. "I'd rather die than return here, back by this devil's side," I choked out, my voice breaking. Memories flooded back; nights of torment, my dignity, my freedom. The loss of my pack family at the hands of the Alpha. Each thought was a dagger, twisting deeper into my soul. My legs trembled, and I sank to the floor, clutching my knees to my chest. Rocking back and forth, I fought to keep the sobs from escaping. "It's been almost a year," I gently whispered to myself. Seeing as we are in the year 2012, It's been almost a year since Albrecht had coveted me for reasons I never fully understood, insisting I was meant to be his by forcefully bringing me to Berlin.I had become his prisoner, his plaything, stripped of all hope and humanity. How can I go through all of it again? I wiped my eyes with the back of my hand, smearing more mas
~CATRIONA~ I opened my eyes to the sharp, sterile scent of the hospital. The antiseptic smell hit me first, but it was the eyes staring back at me that sent chills down my spine. He stood there, towering and imposing, with icy blue eyes that seemed to pierce right through me. His chiseled features were both handsome and terrifying, framed by dark hair that fell just above his shoulders. My soul quivered, trying not to meet his gaze. "Ah---" I groaned softly, pushing myself up despite the dull pain throbbing in my head. 'Where am I?' I thought, taking in my surroundings. 'Could this be hell?' My breath hitched at the sight of the figure still standing before me. 'Why is it that I'm obviously dead but had to come back here, next to this demon?' I wondered inwardly, not daring to utter a word in his presence. As he moved an inch closer, instinct kicked in. "Don't touch me!" I resisted, but his ice-cold fingers ruthlessly dug into my wrist, as if peeling my skin. The pai
