DAWN

"Oh that? Trust me Carl, these are mere portraits. I wonder why you take them so seriously." Marcus opposed, trying to reassure her. But he knew deep down within himself that he was only telling her cheap lies.

She was right after all when he mentioned that he was a womanizer, but not necessarily a real womanizer who went about chasing different ladies, instead, ladies came to him on a daily basis to be called his mistress.

It was obviously not his fault that different ladies came to him anyway, as they were all after one thing, and that was his position as the Alpha of the pack. They all wanted to be identified as his mate and Luna of the pack at the end of the day.

But everything was different with Elena. First, she was sold to him as his mate, and despite seeing the affluence and power he controlled, she didn't let that get into her head.

As long as she never liked him in the first place, she despised him even till eternity and wouldn't want to be associated with him in any w

    CONTROVERSYElena's eyes twitched and she gripped Carl's clothes, her anger suddenly melting into cold tears. "What did you just say?" She asked, her voice unusually less audible.Carl looked her in the face. "They are gone, Elena, with your child!" "What? No, tell me that's not true. Wait, they are gone to where exactly? Talk to me." Her hands wouldn't let free from Carl's clothes and she totally ignored Marcus like he never existed.Meanwhile, Marcus was meaning to hold her hands and reassure her, and promise her that he would get them before they knew it. But he wasn't sure how she would react to it, since she was obviously not in the mood to speak to him.He thought it wise to let her be until she was probably done grieving over what was not lost, before he would come into the picture and inform her about his plans, that's if she would let him.He stood up from his kneeling position and crashed into the sofa, exhaling deeply.

    A TRIP BACK HOME“We'll go with the child.” Garfield said and began to wrap him up in baby linen. “We don't have all day, we have to leave at once!”Mia remained silent and stared at him for a while. “How about we take this child to your father and tell him that you are no longer Elena's mate?”“What if he asks me whose child he is?” Garfield asked, not liking the suggestion Mia had just given. “My father will never like to hear anything concerning Elena, and if he ever finds out this is Elena's child, he will never be happy with me.”“Then lie to him!” Garfield's eyes widened at Mia's suggestion. How could he not have thought about that before now? “Yes, lie to him. Tell him the child is yours. Let him understand that you mistakenly had a one night stand with a maiden and you ended up getting her pregnant.”Garfield rushed at Mia and cuddled him up in a hug, his face ever bright with smiles. “Mia, you know what? You are a genius! All this while I have been looking for a perfect way

    GARFIELD MUST BE FOUND!Elena shot another glance at Marcus and dreaded his presence. She held Carl by the hands and they turned to leave the cave.“Elena?” Marcus called out to her and she turned almost immediately as if she had been expecting his call. “I have a plan that might interest you. I'm sure it would help to find your child and bring an end to Garfield's taunts.”Elena raised her brows, unable to believe what she just heard. She knew Marcus to be a man of his words but she was not yet certain if she could still trust him after all he had done to her in the past.“Trust me.” Marcus pleaded and gripped a hold of her hands, drawing close to her. His eyes and Elena's eyes locked and Elena nodded her head affirmatively as if she had seen something intriguing. She was moved by how innocent and convincing his face was, that she embraced him. “I'll give this a trial.”“You surely won't regret doing this.” Marcus assured her once again as they got locked in each other's arms. “I ha

    "Just one more chore to do, one more and I can have breakfast in peace." Elena chanted the words like a mantra to herself. Her hands worked frantically as she scrubbed the tiled floors of her uncle's room. This was the last room to clean for the morning, before her cousins returned and made a mess of it. She worked with speed and efficiency, conditioned by years of doing house work. At this point, she hardly felt the harsh cleaning chemicals eating into her skin. She was used to it, too used to it.The sound of the door slamming open made her jump and rise to her feet instantly. Her uncle Elijah, stood in the doorway. Elijah was the alpha of the Ash pack. Elena could tell from just one glance that he was in a foul mood. That was bad, just this morning he had been in a good mood, he even smiled. What happened?! Even if she wasn't the cause of his bad mood he'd still take it out on her!She smiled, a gesture that betrayed the internal turmoil brewing inside her like a hurricane. "Good

    Elena knew no peace after the kitchen incident. Elijah took every moment of the day to remind her that she was lying, disgusting thief. Elena went back and begged Malia to just tell her father the truth, say that oh it had been a mistake and she hadn't seen Elena take the food."Why would I do that?" Malia had sneered. She knocked Elena's hand off her. "You deserve to suffer for being the dent on this family. Aren't you even ashamed to call yourself a member of this family?"Malia wouldn't listen, wouldn't do anything. Elijah made Elena's life even worse. He seemingly manufactured chores out of nowhere to make her life worse than hell. He cut her food portions so she was working more but eating less. Elena wanted to cry her heart out to whoever would listen, but her heart was dry. She couldn't even find it in her to do anything other than smile, nod politely and recieve the insults and abuse dished out to her. Afterall, she believed that there was nothing she could do. She was abo

    They arrived at the Lycanfrost pack at midnight. Elena was half asleep and was roused awake by the car screeching to a stop. "We have arrived." One of the men announced.They stepped out of the car, one of them holding the door open. Elena stared at the pack house out of the car window. It was huge. It looked like a medieval castle back draped against the starry night. The half moon gave light and made the castle look haunting. Some of the windows had light, further adding to the haunted look.She stepped out of the car and followed them quietly like a lamb to the slaughter. They walked up the front doors and into the house. They walked through the halls, it was mostly quiet. They got to a door and paused. One of the three men opened the door to reveal a sort of servants quarters. "You'll sleep here for the time being." One f the men said. "You will wake up by four am every morning and assemble. From there on you'll be told what to do."Elena nodded. "Thank you."She walked in and t

    Elena curled up in a ball, crying her heart out. It was nearly two am in the morning, and she had just returned from her duties.She missed her home. She desperately wanted to go back to the Ash pack and be their slave forever. She missed Elijah, she even missed Malia and her tricks. If she could sell her soul to go back to her old life she would. Marcus was the devil himself. Her back felt like it had been lit on fire, fire that refused to die out. Every nerve in her body felt agitated and raw. Her head throbbed, her throat felt dry from the times she'd cried and cried and screamed with no one to hear her voice. She hugged herself as hard as she could, sobbing into her knees as quietly as she could because the last time Marcus heard her crying he burst into her room and gagged her for the rest of the night.It had only been three days, but it felt like forever.The rules were simple, very simple in fact one would believe that it was difficult to mess it up. The only problem was th

    Elena ran as fast as her legs could carry her, but she found that she was losing strength quickly. Her mouth hung open and heavy hot breaths escaped her lips. She could feel a burning in her lungs, her steps were starting to slow very gradually. The cold night wind crashing into her made her realize that she was still naked. She cursed her ignorance silently, wondering why she didn't grab her clothes before she ran away. With bitterness she remembered what happened before she ran.Marcus took advantage of her.She skidded to a stop, leaning on a tree trunk. She drew in large gulps of air, trying to calm her racing heart and burning lungs. She was cold but beads of sweat tricked down her forehead and back. She discovered that she was trembling, but she wasn't sure if it was from fear, excitement or a mix of both.She shivered and hugged herself tighter. She had put quite a bit of distance between her and the pack house, now she wondered how she was going to survive.She didn't even ha

    TORN BETWEEN TWO WORLDSShe would rather leave the cave than watch them participate in such evil by taking Elena's child out. But she didn't just leave and remain silent about what was going on, she planned to go out in search of Marcus and Lina and tell them what was going on.Since she had seen them once in the cave, it wouldn't be difficult for her to recognize them and inform them about what was about to befall Elena back at the cave.She was almost not lucky with her search when she didn't find them for close to hours after stepping out of the cave. The only thing she could think of was to try to remember the name of Alpha Marcus's pack so that she could easily ask anyone how to find him.Unfortunately, she couldn't remember anything as her mind was completely bland and she couldn't place her hand around what Marcus's pack will look like.She kept traveling nevertheless, and soon, she was out of the forest. Her instincts kept pushing her and forcing her to go to a certain directi

    WHAT HAS ELENA DONE?"Not at all Garfield, that's not the truth, I promise. She never told me anything about you." Elena mustered in her defense and that of her friend, Lina.But Garfield was not going to buy her lies. He knew right from when she stepped back into the cave after being with Lina for a while, that something was amiss, and Lina was definitely the cause of it.To think that he had been the person who granted Lina easy access to see Elena earlier and now she took it as an opportunity to hold dirty discussions against him? That could never be!With the way he peered at her, Elena suspected that he had been eavesdropping on them all this while and now, he's bent on finding out everything that has been going on between her and Lina outside the cave.According to him, there must definitely be something Lina was trying to hide away from him and the rogues, which warranted her to drag Elena out of the cave and probably poison her mind about him."What then were you discussing wi

    UNCERTAIN"I'm certain you are not speaking of your own accord, someone must have said something to you about Garfield that warranted you to ask these questions. Who could that be?" Elena asked all of a sudden, and Lina shot her a glare."Is that what matters to you right now?" She yelled in a distinct tone. "You are so alarming Elena! You amaze me lately."Elena remained mute and acted like she was not the one being talked to. She was still bent on finding out who had said such ridiculous things to her about her mate, and now she wouldn't let her be.Her eyes widened suddenly. "It's Marcus right? That frustrated snitch! Why is he so obsessed with me all of a sudden that he is hell bent on destroying my relationship with Garfield?""Oh no! Elena I'm so disappointed at you!" Lina retorted and shot her a menacing glare. "So you think Marcus is doing all these just because he doesn't like Garfield?""Of course yes. What other reason could he have other than trying to end my relationship

    THE ENCOUNTER"I see no reason why you sit there and keep smiling to yourself, don't you see that we have a threat here?" The men yelled at Garfield in anger as he kept quiet for a while.He faced them and meeting their gaze, he burst out into more laughter, provoking the men further. They boiled with aggressive anger within themselves, looking at Garfield suddenly acting like it was none of his business, at the same time, they kept a close eye on Lina.Garfield finally turned to face them, now getting up. "The lady standing before you is Lina and she is Elena's best friend. I see no reason why you eat yourselves up for nothing.""Oh, you should have told us that before now." Levi mustered and turned back to Lina. "You are Elena's friend right? Or is he mistaken?""No, no.. of course not. He's not mistaken, I'm Elena's friend and I'm here to share some information with her.""Alright, in that case, I'll get her for you at once." Levi retorted, running off to the room where Elena had b

    COINCIDENCE"Yes, I'm really sorry. I was only speaking out of tension because I have a lot of things bothering me right now." Marcus finally confessed. Lina raised her already arched brows, peering into Marcus's eyes as if she had seen something disturbing. She saw a tone of sincerity in Marcus's voice and instantly melted when he went on his knees afterwards. "Come on, you don't have to do that." She stretched her hands out at him and helped him get up."Actually, like I said earlier, I've been looking for a perfect way to rescue my mate. Some people are plotting how to get her killed."Lina's eyes widened. His story sounded familiar to hers and she doubted if she would be mistaken if she said they had similar problems. She listened with keen interest as Marcus narrated his ordeal, right from his encounter with Garfield and the other rogues when he had gone to get his mate from the cave where they lived."Exactly!" Lina exclaimed as soon as she heard Marcus make mention of a cav
