CHAPTER TWO
LOWELL
I watch Volk closely as the meeting commences. He was uneasy and from what happened earlier, It had to do with the girl.
”It is a shame that the Amarok’s have been charged with many despicable acts.” I say.
” This not the first time a report has come in. What can you say about that, Jeremy?” Volk adds.
I almost chuckle. Jeremy Amarok was a 57-year-old man who selfishly stayed at the Alpha spot in the Blood moon pack. In normal circumstances, Volk may have regarded him with some respect, but due to the amount of looting and criminal acts he had been involved in over the years, almost no pack respected or regarded him.
”I am not sure what you are talking about, Volk. We have lived by all of the rules and you have no reason to doubt us. Many are jealous of our network and would do and say whatever to soil our name.” Jeremy says.
Watching him, he looks like a toad. Round and short but way more ugly.
” I hope for your sake that we do not find evidence to these claims. We cannot have you ruining the werewolf name. As an Alpha, you know culture is important and we must maintain our place as creatures of the night who protect. We never are to be associated with such crimes.” Volk tells him.
As the last word leaves his mouth, I was sure something was wrong and it had to do with Conri also. After spending so much time with him, I knew the only time he looked this disoriented was when he and Conri disagreed on something. If that girl was the cause and Conri was involved also, it could only mean one thing.
Jeremy seems like he is about to say something but Volk cuts him short.
” I am certain it wouldn't be a bother if we spend the night. Do not bother about giving us a room, we would just be within the premises.” Volk informs him as he gets on his feet and starts to walk away.
This was the shortest meeting we had ever had and the abrupt end only meant Volk was about losing it.
”Thank you for having us, Mr Amarok. ” I say as I follow closely behind Volk.
When we are at a safe distance between the Amarok house, he finally speaks.
” I'm sure you must have guessed it, I met my mate.” Volk deadpans with no ounce of joy.
”Why are you so unhappy about it then?” I ask.
” I can't take her as my mate, Lowell. I could never accept such a weakling.” He spits.
I could not fully understand what he was saying and it made absolutely no sense.
” Volk, she is your mate and you must accept her. She is the best thing that could ever happen to you and you know that. A wolf is incomplete without his mate.” I tell him.
”She doesn't have a wolf. Or for whatever reason, I can't sense it.” He says. His tone is a bit more sad than angry this time. This must not be easy for him.
” How did you sense her then?” I ask
”I do not know, Conri and I just felt it.” He tells me, his tone getting lower with each word.
I put a hand on his shoulder and he looks away, staring into the distance.
”We would take her home and figure it out.” I say.
”Never, I would never accept that thing!” He states.
The sadness in his voice is gone and he walks away.
” Your parents and Ashina would be disappointed, Volk!” I scream after him.
I figure it may not be the right time to push the issue so I let him be. I am certain I would not let him leave the Blood moon pack without the girl.
I decide to take a stroll and hopefully execute the mission that brought us here. If I could find at least one piece of evidence to pin Jeremy Amarok down, there would be nothing holding us back from taking action.
They lived in the dark woods around the sunrise mountain and had made the grounds completely off-limits for the common folk. No one could say what was happening here nor were there any victims to follow up.
I stopped walking when I was met by a bunch of werewolves around a fire having sex in the open, breasts flying in the air. They were made up of four groups and each duo was having the time of their lives, completely oblivious to the other. The Blood moon pack clearly lived like animals.
Just when I was about to continue my tour, I heard a scream. It was impossible to ignore and even the other wolves heard it. They all paused, then finally noticed me. The scream came again and this time, they just went back smashing. I began to run in the direction I had heard it come from, wondering why the other wolves did not care.
RUDINA
As Klaus walks towards me, I brace myself for the beating of a lifetime. I am still in my protective position, crouching. The everyday punishments were going to be nothing compared to what he would do to me tonight.
” How dare you leave the room? Clear instructions Rudina, and you cannot follow.” Klaus growls.
He kicks me and I fall to the ground. I try to mutter an apology but all words fail as his feet meets my stomach and all of the air in my lungs are lost. He starts to pull me by the hair outside. I raise my head to see if it was the green-eyed man from earlier that asked to buy me but I find the doors he walked in from shut. He pulls me out of the hall and into the woods.
As he drags me on the floor, several objects dig into my skin and I wince in pain. The Blood moon pack decided to live near the mountains and after being dragged several times, one would think I would get used to it.
Not far from the house, he finally pulls me to standing and throws me at a tree. My back makes contact first and I feel a bone break inside of me. The pain almost blinds me and I fall limply to the ground.
”Where were you going to? Did you think you could escape? You thought you could leave here? ” He barks.
A loud smack fills the air as his palm meets my face and I feel hot tears streaming down. I try to mutter an apology but all words fail me.
He begins to unbuckle his belt and I pray he would have his way and finally leave me be.
”Damn that Volk, who does he think he is? I would have him regret disrespecting me and my father. ” He says to no one in particular as his dick springs free.
He bends down to where I lay and spreads my legs apart. I close my eyes shot as I always do and think about snow. It had been how I coped over the years. Something about snow always calmed me and made me feel lighter.
It seemed like hours had passed before he finally filled me with cum and pulled out. He looked at me with disgust and gave me another slap across her cheek. He grabbed my left breast and squeezed on it with all of his might then pulled. I let out a shriek and immediately regretted it. Klaus hated when I made any noise.
”You bitch! Shut up! We have guests!” Klaus spits.
More fists meet my abdomen and just when I thought I was going to blackout, he stops.
”I told you to stay but because you do not have any sense of your own, you decided to choose being punished. This was nothing compared to the punishment I had in mind. I would go back to our guests but be sure that I would be back and Father would punish you also.” Klaus tells me.
I close my eye as he deals his final blow by kicking me on my temple. A loud thump fills the air after and I know it did not come from me.
A very handsome tall man, had emerged from the woods and must have hit Klaus because I see him grovelling on the floor. One hit from this stranger had incapacitated Klaus.
CHAPTER THREERUDINAI watch through watery eyes as the green-eyed man approaches us. I cannot mutter any words nor do I intend to. All my thoughts are clouded by the pain in my body and the weakness I feel. My hand was still resting on the man who came to save me as he had helped me get on my feet. As soon as those green eyes fall on me, I quickly pull my hands away. He didn't as much as linger, as his eyes were off me in the same instant. Something about him made me very uneasy and his gaze towards me was as cold as the first time.”What in the world is going on, Lowell?”The green-eyed man growls at my saviour. His voice sends shivers down my spine and I find myself trembling yet again.”This girl you decided to abandon is probably a victim of what brought us to the blood moon pack. You do not intend to leave her here now, do you?” Lowell demands.Fear grips me even harder because I am worried the green-eyed
CHAPTER FOURRUDINAI had spent the night awake and thinking of the one million possibilities the future held. I didn't know what the path ahead was going to be like if what all Lowell had said was true and if it wasn't, then I was going to go back to even much worse torment than I had previously faced. My unease had no solution and as I watched the birds that hymned their morning tone, I studied my environment and wondered if there was any chance I could run away.Like last time, I thought to myself, even if I did, where would I go to? This was the 21st century and life wasn't as archaic as the wolves made it seem. They loved to live in packs and shy away from society and I had not met any pack that was in constant relations with society so this place must be far from town.The blood moon pack paraded around Sunrise mountain. It was a famous mountain in New Jersey and from stories I had heard, it used to be a big attraction before Klaus and Jeremy
CHAPTER FIVEVOLKI decide to leave very early and refuse to think about the girl from last night, which only makes it harder. Whatever torture she was receiving here must have been more brutal than I could imagine but I still could not take her home. I could not fathom how I would live the rest of my life with a woman who could barely stand on her two feet and had no wolf. Her thoughts never leave me as I get into the car and seat in the passenger seat. I never let anyone drive me but I was in no mood to drive and I could not possibly focus on the road if I did."You are not driving?" Lowell asks in shock as he gets in the driver's seat.He had been keeping his distance from me since yesterday and whether or not I could understand why he was being so cold, I still could not bring myself to take her." Yes.” I say to him without lifting my head.He doesn't say another word as he gets in. I realize I cannot find Qareen
CHAPTER 6VOLKConri had not eased since we got home. He had asked to go see her so many times and I refused. I didn't want anyone seeing me with her. I didn't want anyone thinking I cared.”Until you accept her, Volk, I would go into hibernation.”I scoff at his words and continue to ignore him. I feel him go completely still and silent as if to make good of his threat but I know he is only trying to challenge me. He would have to get over his obsession with the girl and I figured, time would serve its purpose there. Mate or not, I could not have her as my Luna. Even as I thought about Conri, I knew I had a much bigger worry now. If Ashina called Mum and Dad, which I was sure she would, I would have a lot more to worry about. Dad would not take abandoning my mate lightly and he would make certain I paid for it.I start to pace in my study, wondering what to do. Ashina’s words are constantly torturing me. All that had happened with the girl before our meeting must be the reason for h
CHAPTER 7 RUDINAI wake up in a room filled with the scent of pancakes. I turn to see a woman by the bed forking some into her mouth. It dripped of honey and some of it was on the side of her lip. She licks it away with her tongue and closes her eyes to revel in the goodness.I watch the goddess carefully and wonder if such beauty had ever existed before her. Her skin was so smooth, I could have had all my meals off it. I watched from her feet to the tip of her head. She had the longest legs I had ever laid my eyes on and they ended in a very tiny waist. She wore skinny jeans and a crop top. Her breast stood firmly beneath her shirt. I moved to her face and noticed how not a single spot could be found. She opened her eyes and those same gorgeous green eyes stared at me.”You’re awake!” She beams.She gets off the couch and comes to seat beside me. She smells of vanilla and a hint of cinnamon. After passing
CHAPTER EIGHTVOLKIt's the third night since Rudina had arrived and I had only visited her while she slept. On the second night, I ended up spending so much time watching her and left just before dawn. Yesterday, she had been having a nightmare, tossing and turning in bed, screaming words I could not make meaning out of. I began to stroke her, as I did her body eased and she continued her slumber. Watching her in pain only made my heart ache even more. Whether I was willing to accept her or not, something drew me to her and I could not deny that I felt more at ease when I was around her.I lay in bed tonight, and the last time I checked, it was about 3:30 a.m. Dad was to arrive by morning and I was still firm on my decision. I didn't want her as my Alpha female. Now, It wasn't because she was weak, it was more because I feared the position would be too much of a burden for her to carry. Deep down, I knew I was just giving myself a reason to feel less horr
CHAPTER NINERUDINAI feel the presence I felt that day in the Amarok hallway. I wondered how I could still sense him when my wolf was dead. All my life, I had wondered why I even considered myself a werewolf. It was only because on the night of the full moon, I felt the power surge through me that I believed I was one. I also knew the buyers and sellers were hiding something because I was only sold to werewolves. I had never heard my wolf stir nor could I use any of the abilities other werewolves maintained even in their human form. I only believed that I was a wolf cause of how I felt during the full moon and how I had survived all these years with my many injuries.He walks in and I feel immediately out of breath. He is wearing a vest and his arms are completely exposed. I take a good look at him, refusing to meet his eyes and I appreciate all of his features. For someone who had gone through the worst of things, I sure had the nerve to notice his concrete jaw and titan shoulders.
RUDINA”There's colour in your cheeks.” Ashina beams as she casually walks into my room.I feel my lips pulling into a smile. I had had the best meal of a lifetime yesterday. Volk had prepared a chicken fillet burger with fries and apple juice. He told me about how he loved burgers and were the first thing he learned how to cook.He had chatted nonstop as I watched him handle the kitchen like a pro. I figured burgers weren't something you should take at 1a.m but he didn't seem to mind, it was his favourite thing to make from all he had said.Ashina sets down the tray she comes in with every morning on the Coffee table. Today, she had prepared toast, scrambled eggs with sausages and orange juice. I wondered why she didn't stop since I was never able to eat any of the food.”I know you've been having a had time eat but can we try again today. I wish you could eat even if it were a little.” s
The first thing I saw, when I opened my eyes, was a bright sunlight that penetrated through the room. I squinted as it was hurting my eyes. It was already morning. It meant I slept through the night. I flexed my muscles and held my breath. I waited for the pain to come but it didn’t. I was glad. I found out that I could sit up. I walked around the empty house before I went to go lie down. I saw the plate of food beside the bed, and found out that I had been spoon fed. I couldn’t see a picture of my host around the house so I settled back in. As I lay back, I noticed that my wounds were now getting healed. I caressed them. Just as I did that, I began to remember how I had gotten to this here in the first place. “Volk, your coronation will be coming up soon, what plans to you have for the werewolf kingdom?” The Alpha of the Drix pack and also the Alpha of the Alphas,my father asked me. In the werewolf kingdom, the Drix Pack, which was my pack has always had the alpha of the Alpha
Volk“We camp here for the night!” Sean, my other beta mmanded. We had been marching since dawn. The road to the dwelling of the Desma pack wasn’t this far but due to the fact, that we are attacking them unannounced, we wanted to take them by surprise.“Volk, we will leave at sunrise” one on my men told me and I nodded. As I stood watching the mountains and the bits flying around, I remembered how I felt yesterday. I couldn’t shake the shock of my brother’s face the moment I told him my plans.“Brother, what do you mean that you want to take over the Desma pack? I mean you just went there yesterday?” Lowell asked me. I stared into his eyes as he pleased with me to make him understand my motive. “I want to do a hostile take over on the Desma pack. The Volcans have strong men which would complete our army.” I said looking away. I lied. I didn’t want to tell him the real reason but I too couldn’t believe it.“yes I know we do not control a big amount of army but that is not what we nee
While with Klaus Rudina began to think to be happy at least.The night was dark but it felt darker for Rudina. Her mind was in chaos as she ran with her might. Her life depended on how fast she could run because if she for any reason she slowed down. That would be the end of her.“Ouch!” she yelled in pain as her legs was caught in a between two sharp branches.She struggled to free herself from it’s grip but all her efforts were going to vain.“There she is!” She turned to hear them charging towards her. Her heart sink as she kept struggling. And just like a miracle, she freed herself and began running again. She kept running and felt her strength betraying her but suddenly she saw a house. It had smoke coming out it. Just like that she felt she had been there or knew the owner of that house. She ran towards it with so much strength. Just as she was about to get into the house, she slipped and fell into a big ditch. She screamed as she fell and hoped that she would not be falling to
IN A STRANGE LAND“Let me go!” I screamed but my mouth was immediately covered by a strong hand. I pushed and kicked but it didn’t do me any good.“Be calm Rudina, it’s me” the voice from said. At the sound of his voice, I know immediately who it is. I use all my strength and untangle myself from his grip. He Chuckled. I might be an Omega but the strength to push Declan away always came from somewhere so deep.“You know, you don’t have to keep running away from me. Submit yourself to me and when I become Alpha, I’ll make you my Luna” Declan said. From the pit of my stomach, the disgust I had for Declan was growing. He had always been a pervert. I remembered when he tried to put his hands underneath my dress, when I was just 15. Now I’m 24, he still hasn’t changed.“Don’t you dare lay your filthy hands on me ever again” I said in clenched teeth.He Chuckled again. “And what would you do if I do that, he said coming closer to me.“Don’t you dare me Declan!” I growled. He chuckled like
Volk’s POV.I knocked on the door after I heard some giggling but the moment I knocked I couldn’t hear it anymore.“Who is there?” I heard the make voice ask.“It’s security” I said.Then I heard footsteps approach the door. The door was slowly opened but the moment I could see his face, I burst into the room.“Aargh!!” He screamed. I twisted his arm and he fell to the floor.“You think you can get this werewolf huh– I dragged the conch off his neck and it broke.“Oh my God! What’s happening? Where am I “ Rudina the young alpha asked.“Its alright Rudina. Everything will be fine” I assured her. I made a whistling sound and some of my men came into the room. They took the shape shifter away.“Sir you beta has arrived the pack.” They informed me. I had sent for Lowell when I was attacked.“Come on let’s go home” I said to a confused looking Rudina.***********************************************************************************Lowell’s POVI has arrived at this pack and I was warml
Noria’s POVSuddenly Matt appeared.“Excuse me I have to go” I said and went straight to Matt.“That man keeps the creeps' I said.“Well you have to see him often. He is connected to Klaus. Actually he is a spy” Matt said on our way home. He said that Klaus wanted to know if I truly had lost my memory, just like the plan stated.“What?” I turned to stare at him and he nodded. He explained that he was wondering what was wrong. That Klaus was by now, meant to call for him but he won’t why the delay. So when he say the Rocco guy, he knew he was Klaus spy.“So what do I do?” I asked.“Well we need to watch him and by watching him I mean, going as a spy yourself to him” Matt said. Then that was how he got info on where the billionaire use to go to. Matt got me a job there as a waitress. Let’s say fortunately for me, I met Naomi there. So I began to work then while looking for the Rocco guy.Fortunately for me, Rocco came to the bar and has been staring in my direction. I avoided serving hi
Noria's POVAfter I had listened to Matt. I came to forgive him. He told me we have to go ahead with the plan and meet KlausOn Friday he took me to a club and I made some friends. I couldn’t feel free in the club because I felt someone was watching me but Naomi my friend, was against it.“Stop being a wet blanket and have some fun” Naomi whispered into my ear as we got into the club. We were welcomed by the dark lights of the club, the loud music, and the almost naked skin, that littered the whole place. I took in a breath and tried to relax.The club was once my forte. It was a place I always ho often, whenever the problems were getting to my head until I decided to move to New York. I haven’t really clubbed. Naomi tapped my arm and spoke some words. I didn’t get to hear her because of the music. Then she shouted.“What Will you take?” She shouted over the speakers. The first thing that comes to mind is the pineapple cocktail. So I tell Naomi, like the way she did to me; shouting ov
Jeremy’s POVI flung my eyes open immediately I heard the noise. I stood up to find out that it was a phone ringing. I turned to find out that it was my phone. I was surprised to find out that it was unscathed after what I had been through.“Hello”“Hello Jeremy, it’s me Dean.” Sean was a friend of mine but he wasn’t close. We were more on the surface than friends. What I foun6 surprising was why he was calling me.“Hello?” I couldn’t hear a thing. It turns out that, the phone was actually bad. So I had to make use if the phone I saw in the house.“Hello Dean, tell me what happened” I said.“Jeremy, I know this would come as a surprise to you. I have been trying your number for weeks now. What happened?” he asked.“I don’t know if I should tell you this.” I paused a bit and told him everything.“Wow, that’s a lot to take in. I guess by now, your parents would be worried sick, looking for you” he said.“Yes, they would. I told them that I was going on a research journey and I was du
With Micheal asleep, Clare began to search the room. She didn’t see anything with Klaus in his pocket. As she sighed sitting on the bed, she was grabbed.“Michael what do you” think you—““I 'm sorry sleeping beauty. I didn’t feel comfortable in the hotel, so I moved you to my house.”“What?” I shrieked.“ just shut up, you are over reacting” he said softly, staring into my eyes as he closed the gap between us. He didn’t also give me a warning and again he slammed his lips on me. this time he held my head in place and plunged his tongue deep into my mouth. He brought out a hand and began squeezing my butt. I moan in response and this I felt gingered him the more. He came closer and I could feel his body heat. His bare chest against my night wear clad breast but the material was not hindering me from feeling him. Suddenly I felt a bulge growing on my stomach and I gasped. My moans were swallowed by our kissing as he kissed like we were two passionate lovers but we weren’t. i tried fi
