Sheryl’s POV My heart was racing in my chest because of the amount of adrenaline rushing through my veins. I hadnever done anything like this before but here I was, breaking somebody out of the hospital. “I can’t leave without knowing if Ryan is going to make it or not,” Rachel said, sliding out of bed. I couldhear the hurt in her voice, and it made me feel sad for her. “I’ll keep you updated,” I promised her. “But for right now, I need to get you out of here. I’m going tocall my dad when we are on the road. I won’t let them take you away to that awful place. You almost died the last time you were there. They should be investigated and shut down.”I still couldn’t believe a facility in a place that I love could be so cruel to other species. I had no ideathose with dark hearts could linger in Elysium. It was always such a loving place. Or maybe I have just been too blind to see what was in front of my face the whole time.I zipped her back and threw it over my shoulder as I made my
“Earlier today,” I answered with a shrug, trying to seem nonchalant. “But you were busy taking Connie tolunch.”“When did you find out about this little vacation?”“It’s not a little vacation,” I said in return. “It’s a huge opportunity. Plus, I’ll be working as Cassie-Ann’s assistant the entire time. Plus, I could get into that school and really take my career to the next level.”“You can take it to the next level here too,” he said, still trying to process my words. “Why do you needto go across the world to do that?”“Because there’s no better school than the one in Monro,” I said, furrowing my own brows together as I stared over at his amazing side profile. He was so handsome no matter what the view. “Don’t you want me to succeed?”I said that last part using a small voice. I was afraid of his answer because it looked like he had beenthinking about it for a long while. However, he didn’t respond. “I was going to tell you about it…” I said in a softer tone. “I just didn’t think y
"You stupid mutt! I told you to clean my room, what have you been doing? Huh? Answer me!" James slapped Sheryl with every sentence that came out of his mouth.She kept her head down to avoid eye contact because it would only anger him more. The more she tried to justify herself, the more beating she received, in the end, she chose to keep quiet and take the beating."Answer me!" His voice boomed in the little closet room they were in.Permitting to speak, Sheryl took the chance to explain herself."I-I-I w-was washing the dishes alpha." With her head still bowed, she stuttered and rushed out her words as best as she could."Is that more important than listening to me?" He questioned quietly, but the venom his voice carried scared Sheryl."No Alpha." She answered quickly."Okay." He finalized, making Sheryl think the torture was over. But it was far from over.She tried to leave, but James was not having it. He held her back by her arms, making her flinch. She knew exactly what was to
It was Kelly. And the look on her face was not nice. It was menacing. It was scary. Water was poured upon her, wetting her alongside her bed.How Kelly made it to her room was totally beyond Sheryl, but she knew she had to stand up for herself, or the pack spoiled girl would take her for a fool."What are you doing?" Sheryl shouted, looking at Kelly with hatred in her eyes.Kelly and her minions were shocked."What did you just say to her?" Ginny spoke first, holding up Sheryl's chin by her palm. The said girl swatted the hand away and looked straight into Kelly's eyes."What are you doing in my room? This is my personal space, you have no right." Sheryl Tru stood up, but Jenny pushed her back into bed, annoying her even more.Without thinking, she pushed Kelly out of the way and got out of bed forcefully. The spoiled girl scoffed."What were you doing with James last night?" Kelly asked, making Sheryl stop in her tracks."No no no." She started to chant inside herself. The last thing
"What is going on here!?" Landon, the head warrior's voice boomed across the little forest, as he rushed over and held down Sheryl.He also happened to be the only person who tolerated Sheryl enough to be friends with her."Nothing warrior, move along now, we're simply carrying out the Alpha's order." The leader spoke.Landon was shocked to say the least, because if at all the alpha needed the brutes, he was usually the one the laoha would send to call them. And they knew too, but they were simply trying to indulge in their pleasure."The alpha?" Landon scoffed, "I don't remember the alpha sending me to call you brutes out.""So what are you going to do about it?" The leader asked, trying to flex his muscles."Why don't we take this straight to the alpha?" Landon threatened while Sheryl shook her head profusely, knowing that would cause more trouble for her.The alpha was known for his ruthlessness, the brute couldn't bear being at the bottom of his wrath, so they disappeared as quick
No one heard Ashton utter those words, so everyone carried on with their merriment.As he mingled with the guests, everyone was surprised because he rarely liked to be in the midst of people, but he wanted to fish out from where the pleasant smell came from.It was very faint, making it hard for him to hunt down.Ashton always wanted a mate, hence making it easy for him to know for sure that it was his mate."Where could she be?" Ashton spoke first, as he looked around."Let's enjoy the evening first." Ashton was a bit reluctant to find his mate, he wanted her to find them, after all, he was the alpha.Ashton nodded to himself, but he couldn't help but feel the primal pull to find his mate. He scanned the crowd, his eyes lingering on the women, but none of them seemed to be the one he was looking for. Until he caught a whiff of a scent he couldn't resist."Over there," he said discreetly, pointing to a woman standing by the bar. She wore a red dress that hugged her curves in all the r
The deed was done.But the moment Ashton realized what he was doing, they became mortified with themselves and fled without as much as a look back.Sheryl was crying, with pains all over her body, but she managed to pick herself up to wipe herself clean."Why?!" She lamented in a loud voice, tears rolling down her face mixed with snort."What!?" Asher's eyes widened when the alpha told him of the atrocities he had committed against his mate."I didn't mean to, my wolf took over." He cried, Ashton held his hair, almost as if he wanted to pull it out of its roots."You left her!" The beta couldn't understand why that would happen."We didn't mean to okay?!" Ashton got frustrated and wanted to leave the office immediately."You have to go and apologize to her right away, for all you know, it might be her first time and you guys took advantage of her body like that?" Asher told Ashton who remained seated."It is her first time, Asher." The alpha replied in a little voice, regret signed al
Sheryl doesn't think she has had this much peace of mind in such a long time. Seeing the kids play around happily is enough for her to beam with a smile. The Starlight Pack has been nothing but a blessing in disguise to Sheryl. She no longer has to dread waking up or being seen. She has lived a life in fear and now, she has a taste of what peace of mind feels like. Still sitting down, she kept thinking of how to build a life here and forget the life of misery that she had lived. "Bye, mama," Phoebe tells me running out of the house happily."I'll get you candy from the candy man mama," Phoenix tells her smiling and following her sister to play. "Wait Phoenix, where's your sister?" She asks Phoenix surprised Lenny isn't going out with them. "She said she doesn't want to go out.""Why?""I don't know." Phoenix tells her mother and runs off before she can say anything else. This is unlike Lenny. They always go everywhere together but her wanting to stay behind is a cause for worry.
