SOFIA
I don’t think there’s anything worse that could happen to me. Catching the Alpha’s eye was the last thing on my to-do list but it seemed like I’d unknowingly caught his attention.
Being born a vampire, I’d learned to be tough but when it came to some creatures of the night, they wanted you for very different reasons. Although I didn’t know what the alpha’s agenda was, his voice had echoed those words into my ear making his intentions very clear.
You’ll be mine soon…
His voice had a deep baritone, commanding and tempting all the same.
He wasn’t just making fun of me.
He knew what he wanted and the fact that he addressed me directly was terrifying.
Vampires were known to be cunning creatures of the night, they were fast, powerful, and fought an undeniable bloodlust which was a curse. Among all the other creatures, sex with a vampire was the most tempting prospect to any of them. The feelings were heightened, the pleasures were a dozen times better and it was something that no other night creature could provide. Be it the Werewolves, Dragons or the shapeshifters, they all wanted it.
It was the drive for sex, or the curiosity of it, for the lack of a better word that pulled most of the other species to our kind.
Being a female vampire between all the other savages in the prison was going to be tricky. The other creatures were going to be attracted to me, no doubt, wanting a taste of what they had only heard from the rumors.
I could only guess that’s exactly what the Alpha was seeking from me too.
And I’d be damned if I let him play me.

The guards took us through the archway that had carved gargoyles on it. It looked like an old castle.
Jake the Giant followed closely behind us, keeping his head down as he walked. Celeste, the Fae prisoner was walking ahead, leading us. She seemed to be emanating a fearless aura that neither Danny nor I possessed. She was very short, barely even five feet making her the smallest out of us. Her height difference with Jake was laughable.
I wondered how she was going to survive this.
Once inside we were surrounded by cells on both sides, and the creatures’ continued their catcalling and cackled as we walked down the passageway.
“Keep your eyes in the front.” The guard said, “Do not look at them unless you want to get into trouble.”
“Hey Vampire girl, bet your cunt is as sweet as you look.”
“I want to tap that.” Another voice said, laughing.
“I’d rather take the furry bitch.” His friend said and they all howled like a wolf, teasing Danny.
“Bunch of fucking pricks.” Danny spat at them.
“A bad doggie. Guess daddy will have to teach you some manners later.”
“Fuck you!” she screeched.
“That would be a dream come true, wolf girl.” They howled again, laughing like evil hyenas.
“They are getting you riled up on purpose.” I told her, “Ignore them.”
“I know.” She groaned in frustration. “I’m trying but I guess it’s just the werewolf genes that makes me so goddamn angry that I want to rip their throats.”
We were brought to an open bathroom and the guard made us all stand in a line.
“Strip.” He demanded.
Danny and I exchanged looks.
What in the hell was this about?
“Didn’t you fucking hear what I said, Inmates? I asked you to strip!” He growled.
“Where is the lady officer? We can’t just take our clothes off in front of you!”
The Shapeshifter leveled a menacing glare at Danny. “If you don’t start removing your clothes, I’ll lock you in a barrel filled with Wolfsbane. Is that what you want?”
Danny looked at me and a clear understanding crossed her features. My own expressions mirrored hers.
We’d established one thing. This prison didn’t seem like it had set rules which meant we were going to be screwed beyond imagination. Getting naked in front of a Prison guard was probably going to be one of our most comfortable and happiest memories from here. The rest was going to be far worse.
Celeste was the first to start stripping. She didn’t take her eyes off the guard as she pushed the sleeve of the white dress from her shoulders and let it fall to the tiled floor. She stood in a pair of bra and panties. I could sense that she’d shut off her emotions, either that or she just didn’t care.
The guard leered at her, his yellow eyes blazed, a ring formed around the irises, a clear indication of his lust.
“Take it off. Every single piece of garment from your bodies.”
As expected, the fairy didn’t flinch, she unbuckled her bra and let it fall and then the rest. Her breasts were small but perky, her hips round and in good shape. The creatures would be all over her, I had no doubt about that. Her wings were easily visible now. She was fascinating.
She was by far the most beautiful creature I’d seen. What was she capable of?
My train of thought was interrupted by the guard’s yelling.
It was now our turn.
Jake started removing his shirt and pants. I tried not to stare but curiosity was indeed a bitch. I sneaked a peak and boy was he packed. He had giant-sized everything. He had broad shoulders and a thick waist, soft thick hair covered his torso and large hands. He belonged in the jungle with the wildlife. I remembered Danny mentioning that his lineage came from Giants and Trolls. He wasn’t bad looking, just scary with a capital ‘S’.
After Jake was done, the guard looked at us, “Are you two waiting for me to issue you an official invitation?”
Danny and I began stripping together. We needed to be strong. Our wills should be steel in this place because who knew what was going to happen to us while we stayed here.
I didn’t think I would be getting out of here alive.
And if something happened while I was in prison, my secret would die with me.
“Nice.” The shifter sniggered, “You gals are well endowed.”
He signaled with his hand and we were bathed in ice-cold sprays of water.
It was humiliating, to say the least. The shifter might as well be fucking us with his eyes. If the authority here was this bad, I wasn’t even going to try making guesses about the inmates.
Danny shivered at my side, hugging herself, her dark chocolate hair covered her breasts like a curtain. She was biting her lip so hard; I could see her drawing blood.
“Are you okay?”
She gave me a nod but I knew she wasn’t. Being a werewolf, she hated the cold.
When we were thoroughly sprayed with water, we were given prison uniforms. Half-sleeved t-shirts with grey and white stripes over a skirt that touched above my knees. Whoever made a rule here for women to wear skirts needed to drop dead. This was like giving the male creatures here free rein to put their hands where they shouldn’t.
“What about underwear?” I whispered to her.
Danny seemed to have the same question too.
I was so worried about my undergarments that I failed to notice that Celeste and Jake hadn’t been offered any clothes yet.
The guard sat down on the bench near the sink watching us with interest.
“You.” He pointed at Jake, showing off a row of crooked yellow teeth, “Fuck the little fairy.”
Jake the Giant was at a loss of words and so were we.
SOFIA My jaw should have been on the floor but I composed myself quickly. Danny laughed because clearly she thought this was a joke. “Do you think this is funny, inmate?” He sneered. “Do you want to be fucked by the Giant dick?” She shut her mouth and looked down. The patterns on the floor were suddenly very interesting. He sniggered, “that’s what I thought.” “That is not allowed here.” Those were the first five words that I’d heard come out of Jake’s mouth, and I’d thought he might have been mute. “I make the goddamn rules here and if I say I want to watch a fairy getting fucked by a giant, that’s what I’m gonna watch. You will perform for me if you don’t want solitary confinement in a cell so small you can’t stand up to take a piss.” The guard looked at Celeste. “You want to have your wings clipped off?” She was the first to start walking towards Jake who went still when he realized what was about to happen. He swallowed, you could see the fear in his eyes, and a cloud of
SOFIA “If you think I will agree to something like that then you’re sadly mistaken. I don’t need a male creature in order to survive.” “Miss. Volkov, you do not understand the seriousness of this situation. These creatures are savage, they do not possess a modicum of sympathy. Being alone out there is the same as walking into a group of blood-sucking vampires. No offense.” “None taken.” “With the protection of the strongest creatures, you wouldn’t have to worry about survival.” “And that comes with a price of giving myself over to some male creature that I don’t even know. What if he’s a serial killer?” “Everybody inside this prison has done atrocious crimes. One is not better than the other.” And that should make me feel better? “How is sleeping with someone for protection better than being on my own?” “I’ll give you a small example. There was a Shewolf here before, she was sentenced for petty crimes. You remind me a lot of her. Just like you, she refused the Protection.” I
SOFIAThe words kept haunting my mind.The Alpha wants to see you right now.I didn’t need to see anybody. If he was the Alpha, it meant something to his pack of dogs, but I wasn’t part of it. This was a prison and everyone was equal here.I wasn’t sure if that was true or if I was trying to convince myself of lies.There were inmates here who were far more superior than the others. Creatures with the power to run the show, to dominate, and demand submission.Unfortunately, it seemed like the Alpha possessed that power.I walked out of the shower hastily coming face to face with a dozen other male creatures who stood naked. Some of them were putting on their uniforms, others leering at me. Their thoughts were completely transparent.I just need a piece of her.Wonder if she would accept me as her protector.That ass is hot! I want to be the one to fuck her!Will it be dangerous to have sex with a vampire?I tuned them out and went to the locker where a clean pair of uniform was waitin
SOFIA There were three powerful wolves standing here in front of me with identical mocking looks on their faces. They could tear me limb to limb easily and think nothing of it. They were as massive as the Alpha but it was clear who ran the show here.If I didn’t know better, it looked like high school bullying.“You’ll get your clothes back if you answer my questions.”Where the fuck were the guards?“I was born in Russia.”Minion One on the right-hand side decided to open his mouth, “I heard that in Russia, you drink Vodka instead of water. Is that true?” he asked in a very bad Russian accent.They all sniggered.“I’m Maverick, I’m the Alpha of the Crimson Moon Pack. I’ve come here to make an offer to you.”Crimson Moon Pack. So fucking lame.His jaw twitched. Was there any chance he could hear my thoughts? I’d have to be careful. I needed to build a wall to protect what I was thinking.“What offer?”I was going to deny whatever spewed next from his mouth.“You need protection in th
SOFIA Inside my cell, I carved a line next to the one I’d drawn yesterday.It was currently day two.My stomach growled loudly indicating that I needed to put some food inside my system ASAP.Vampires, especially those who starve or don’t get enough blood in their system, slowly grow weak and die, but not before going on a rampage filled with blood-lust so potent, you would rather take a stake to your heart.If I didn’t get to feed, I would go into a similar state where I wouldn’t be someone, but something.The thought brought chills to my body.When I was done with the shower, we were taken into the lunch cafeteria which looked equally depressing.It smelled of sweat, urine, stale food, and basically your worst nightmare. Tables were crammed with different creatures. The whole place looked nasty. I didn’t want to be here much less eat but it’s not like I had any other choice.They all turned when they saw me walk inside.There was a huge crowd near the food counters. Each inmate had
SOFIAI stared at the incubus. He couldn’t be serious.“You want me to give you a few years of my life in exchange for your protection, is that what you’re saying?”“I will give you my protection in exchange for sex. If you want to escape this prison, that comes with a higher price which is a few years of your life.”“Define few years.”Incubuses couldn’t be trusted, and especially not sweet-talking, good-looking ones like Brax.“A hundred years.”I snorted. “That’s a few?”He smiled, “You’re immortal. What does it matter if it’s hundred or a hundred and fifty?”“Why should I trust you? For all I know, you could be lying to me. Your kind is not particularly famous for being honest. This might be your ploy into stealing some of my years.”“I could have cheated you out of it but I didn’t because I’m looking for teamwork. The other males here, they need slaves. You’ll have all the freedom you want with me, Sofia.” He stared straight into my eyes, his gaze unwavering.“If you can escape p
SOFIAI shut the lid of the toilet seat and sat down on it, hoping the guard would leave. I didn’t want to get into trouble for being caught with Maverick.“Who was here with you?” The guard asked him.“No one.”“You don’t want to lie to me, inmate.”“I’m not lying. I think you heard someone from the toilets on the other side. Maybe you should check there.”The sound of the footsteps began to fade away. I sagged in relief.“You can come out now.”I opened the door slowly and peeked out to make sure no one was lingering around.“So where were we?” He teased me; the corners of his mouth turned up.“Let’s forget that it ever happened.”I wanted to forget that I was momentarily distracted and was extremely turned on by the Alpha’s words. I couldn’t help as my eyes moved over his body. He was tall, maybe six feet three, all hard and smooth muscles. Thick arms and even thicker hands. An image flashed inside my head, a filthy one with Maverick’s large hot, and needy body covering mine and fu
SOFIAOne hour earlierJake stood near my table. I couldn’t decipher what was going on in that meaty head of his. Since Celeste was paired up with the Dragon when she signed the Prison Protection, he preferred to keep to himself. I’d seen him look at her longingly but that was all he did.“What do you want?” I asked.“May I sit?”It was something in his eyes that told me this was really important. He needed to do this, whatever it was.“Okay.”He sat down opposite me with a large tray filled with food that looked not so edible. Mistaking my curiosity for hunger, he pushed a giant piece of chicken towards me. “For you.”I pushed it back to him. “Thanks, I don’t eat human food.” Or giant food in his case.“How have you been holding up?” He asked casually.“There’s no need for small talk, Jake. Get to the point.”He seemed relieved to hear me say that. He wasn’t the type to do small talk either.He indicated towards the group of werewolves at the corner, “I heard the Alpha’s staking a cl
