Ryker’s POVI continued working with the man till he was done for the day because I didn’t him to look around for me or start asking people about me when I disappeared. I collected my daily payment from him and slipped away calmly between the other workers like I had a place outside of the palace.As soon as I was sure no one was paying me any attention, I slipped back into the main house and started to hurriedly make my way down to the lower levels where I knew the dungeons were.The journey down was easy, the problem came when I got to the dungeon itself, there were about four guards at the entrance and there was no way I could slip past them without getting questioned or apprehended.Shit.I cursed, leaning against a wall. I had to think of a way to get in there for I couldn’t reach this far and then just go back because some guards were at the door.As I was thinking, I saw a few guards coming and I realized that they must have been here for a shift. It was just a wild guess but a
Michael’s POV“My king…” Stella cried out as squeezed her nipple. “You said we were going to wait for Amanda…” She moaned as she curled against my work table, her breasts left bare for me to enjoy.“We are waiting,” I said, giving her left nipple another squeeze. “I am not penetrating you, am I?”“No, you are not…” she moaned, wiggling her breasts for me to get a better show.Stella was the naughtiest of all the girls that frequented my room. They were all top-level whores —except Sarah. On a second note, even she was a whore. The fact that I could have them whenever I wanted was a luxury I could never get enough of.Their job was now uniquely to satisfy their king and who was I to say?“Since we are playing around…” Stella started, moving across the table to where I sat. She came to stand before me with her eyes swimming in lust. “May I play with your little man?”My eyes almost turned to the back as desire flushed through me. My breath caught in my throat at her audacity, and I knew
Ella’s POVI ignored Esther’s advice and went on to do as I wanted with Anna. I needed to put Willow in her place. To me, she was the one who ruined my happiness. She took my child away from me by pushing me into the hands of my enemies.If I had never run off into Crystal Pack, Michael would have never found me. He would have never taken me back home to a place where all they planned was hod to do me evil.We went into town taking a path that led us closer to the Greenwood pack to the place Anna spoke of.“She came here regularly to see a man,” Anna said and my brows raised.The building in front of us was a strange house with lights at every corner. It looked like a hotel at first glance but when you looked closely you would see that it wasn’t clean enough to be called that.“What is this place?” I asked, unable to keep my thoughts to myself.Anna shrugged and held my hand. “It is a brothel but for males.”I tried to comprehend what she had said but it made absolutely no sense at al
Ella’s POVAn explosion suddenly went off within me as Michael’s words sank into my head.A thousand questions played out, and I started wondering if this was a joke. How could this be happening?I took the phone off my ear and confirmed if I had dialled the right number, and indeed it was. But it still didn’t make sense. Ryker was in his pack attending his usual meetings. How did he get to Crystal Pack, and how did it get to the level of kidnapping?“What did you say?” I repeated in a gentle whisper for the sake of my sanity.Michael let out a deep chuckle through the phone, further reminding me that this wasn’t a joke at all. This was real.“I have Ryker, and if you don’t believe I would also send you a picture in case you are, I doubt, and when you confirm, please love, call me back.” With that, the call ended, leaving me in shock.My eyes were wild, and my brain was racing in the same manner my heart was beating. I got off the bed and started pacing with two of my fingers tapping
Ella’s POV“Ella, are you sure about this?” Patrick asked for the umpteenth time, and I simply nodded my head as I had been doing before.This was not a time to be emotional. They had played and bruised me enough that it was now time for action. I took my phone from him and dialed the number, waiting for Michael to pick up once again.Patrick’s eyes were swimming with a thousand reluctant emotions but we both knew that this was the only way. We couldn’t go to war against Crystal Pack with Ryker in their hands. They were going to kill him and without an heir, we were subjected to more attacks until the entire pack became under captivity.And everything would be my fault. The only reason why Ryker even went to Crustal Pack in the first place was because he was trying to help me. I made a promise to myself never to let other people suffer because of me.Enough was enough.“Hello, beautiful, I have been expecting your call,” Michael’s annoying gruff voice filled the phone, and I wished I
Ella’s POV Patrick expression show he still had his doubts as we walked back into the house, but I was determined, and there was nothing he was going to tell me that would make me change my mind on what about to do my enemies.My mind have already been made up and nothing in this life can chnage it. it is time i take actions."When we got to my chambers, I considered telling Anna and Esther, since one of them might have to come with me for back up, but I thought against it.I was going into the feral den, a dangerous territory. It would be very selfish of me to drag them along with me like they didn’t have a life of their own.“Aren’t you going to let in Esther and Anna on our plans so they can prepare for your journey ahead too?” Patrick asked, but I shook my head softly, not wanting to dive into the topic due to the circumstances that surrounds it.“No, let them let leave out, it better that way. It’s not important to drag them along every time.”Patrick, understanding from the de
Ella's POVAs the vehicle eased into the royal palace, I wasn't surprised to find mother and son standing by the receiving area with fake smiles on their faces. In that moment, I regretted not being the one driving the vehicle down there myself, for I would have ran them over in that instant on sight.My anger towards them and the entire family in general increased as the vehicle came to a stop, and I wished the ground could open and swallow them whole for all the atrocious deed they have done.It was a surprise, how cruel people got to live happily for so long while innocent people and the good ones —like my mother— died an early death, not getting to see her dear daughter grow into a wonderful woman. But people like Emily were still alive, teeming the work evil!"Don't worry, Ella, we are going to get them," Esther whispered with her hand lying comfortingly laying over mine.She must have sensed my unease growing, and being the sweet girl she has always been, she offered to help ou
Ella's POVMy heart was burning from the pain and anger. I could not believe what Michael had done to Ryker, chaining him like a an animal.His face was swollen and his right eye was purple not even opening at all.Only his left moved as he set them on me. I could see the panic in his eyes but I had practiced enough in the last couple of days. I was not going to let my emotions show.I had them tied up and locked behind my heart that nothing Michael could do that would have reaction.I mustered the courage to ask Michael."Why do you have him locked up with silver, are you scared he would break free at attacking you?" I asked casually as if the scene before me was not breaking me.Michael had his brows raised and his nose flared with irritation. It was clear that he expected the scene to break me.But he failed."I am not scared of anyone. I am the Alpha King! People fear me instead!" He retorted building up."Oh, yet, you had to find a way to force me into coming here so that the sea
