Jaselyn's POV “But—” I try to protest but he stands up abruptly, slamming his hands on the desk.“Don't make me repeat myself, Jaselyn or you'll regret it. From today onwards, I will treat you as exactly what you are, a body to carry my future offspring so fucking undress right now.” He demands through clenched teeth and a slight pain stabs through my heart as I begin taking off my clothes with shaky hands.“I don't have the time for this. Leave the dress on and just take off your panties.” He growls and I do exactly as he says.He grabs my arm and roughly pushes me to the wall and my breath hitches as I find myself trapped by his body.“Turn around, hands on the wall and ass out.” He instructs and the fear that thrums through me makes me do it almost instantly.What is going on? Did I say something wrong? I only spoke the truth. I don't like this game he keeps on playing with me so I called him out on it. Why is he behaving like he's the one getting betrayed and mistreated?“Spread
Jaselyn's POV“Don't come in, Rion. I'm in the middle of something very important. We'll talk later.” Zane finally speaks and the grasp on the door knob seems to release.“Oh. You could have just said so. I'll come by later then.” Rion replies and shortly after, I hear his retreating footsteps. My ears ring in static and my heart constricts as my breath hitches. My body trembles with unfurling pleasure as my nether region aches and contracts. It's only then that I realize that I had been having an orgasm mixed with adrenaline. It was triggered when I thought that Rion was going to come in and catch us.The realization fills me with shame as I catch my breath, trying to come down from my high.“Don’t clench so hard, I wanna take my sweet time with you. You can relax now, he's gone.” Zane says and I release a breath I didn't even know I was holding.“I want you to do something for me. Keep your cheeks nice and spread.” Zane's voice rumbled in his chest and I felt it against my back. My
Jaselyn's POVAfter what went down in Zane's office, I'm glad that he actually left the palace. The only pitfall being that Rion went with him. I heard that they were visiting another Pack for a very important meeting with the Alpha. I'm not sure of the details.Before they left, a lot of people went to see them off but of course I stayed back. I would prefer not to see Zane ever again if I could help it. But at the same time, I felt bad for not being able to say goodbye to Rion. I would surely miss his company in the time that he's gone.It's the second day since their departure and I wake up with a pain in my lower abdomen. It's only a slight discomfort so I decided to dismiss it but I can't seem to get rid of the anxiety steadily building up within me.It feels like…… like…..“Something bad is going to happen.” Nila completes and I nod.It's probably because Isla is back and Rion isn't here to protect me and neither is Zane to keep his crazy wife in check. “It's better to stay out
Jaselyn's POV My cheek stings and there's a slight ringing in my ear but I refuse to accept defeat. I refuse to let the tears escape.I pull on a mocking smile and look up at her. “Is that all you’ve got?” Another slap lands on the other side of my face. But I still don’t succumb. So there’s another. And Another. And another and another. I lose count on the tenth slap but I still refuse to cry. Isla finally stops and backs away, breathing heavily like she’d just ran a marathon. My cheeks hurt like hell, they’re probably red and swollen. A metallic saltiness fills my mouth from my teeth causing cuts in my mouth due to the assault. My lip is also busted and bleeding but I swallow all my pain, disguising it behind a laugh instead.“Are you satisfied now? You know, I’ve always wondered if you cause others pain just to make up for the joy that you lack. But I know now that you’re just bitter, it’s only your nature to make others suffer. And I really don’t know who’s to blame for that. Ma
Jaselyn's POVIt takes a minute for me to collect myself. I get up from the floor and wipe my tears, hissing at the sting as my hands come in contact with my cheeks.I take a deep breath and pick up the clothes from the floor. I walk into the bathroom and change into them. The clothes are uncomfortable and they make me feel exposed. I take a look in the mirror to inspect the damage on my face. My cheeks are swollen as I had feared, the redness has started turning a dark purple color. Thankfully, the slight heat didn't cause any damage but it's only because I gave in quickly. The slit on my bottom lip is visible and swollen with dried blood on it. My eyes are red and puffy with my hair in disarray. I looked like a total mess and I felt like shit as well.Isla said to wear make-up but I don't have any so I'm assuming she wants me to use some of hers. It explains why she left me in her room. I walk out of the bathroom and back into the bedroom. I brush my hair before weaving it into a s
Jaselyn's POVMy legs carry me to the exit but as usual, it's guarded. Blade is talking to one of the guards and I pause abruptly, a sense of urgency washing over me.“Please! Please let me pass, my life is in danger. If I don't leave from here now, only Selene knows what will become of me.” I plead out hysterically, my breath coming out in strides.Blade takes me in for a moment with an expression I can't read or I'm too worried about my own safety to care what he's thinking right now.“I'm sorry but you know the rules. The Alpha has given strict orders never to let you pass through these doors. There's nothing I can do for you.” He says bluntly and the tears welling up in my eyes finally fall.I know that Isla is close by, she'll catch up to me any moment now if I don't leave.“Please, if you have even an ounce of sympathy in you, let me pass. The Alpha doesn't have to know you let me escape, you can just cover it up. I'm begging you to please save me, let me go.” I plead once more,
Jaselyn's POV “Keep quiet, you little whore. Who gave you the right to speak? I won't hear another demeaning word from you, you wretched creature.” She screams and before I realize what's happening, a shoe comes flying in my direction.It's too sudden and I'm unable to dodge it fast enough, it hits me on the side of the head and I'm dazed in an instant, my vision blurring uncontrollably.It takes all my willpower in that moment to stop myself from collapsing as I grasp the side of my head which throbs painfully. I feel something wet against my hand and quickly take a look, realizing that it's blood. The side of my head is bleeding!“This is only happening because I've been far too lenient with you. Now you'll feel the full extent of my wrath so that after today, you'll never forget your place again.” She screams out just at the exact moment that another thunderclap rumbles.My head rings as she grabs my arm, dragging me out of the room again. I feel like I'm in a daze as my vision co
Zane's POV“Is this really necessary? You've never been this eager to return to the Pack from your official outings. Besides, why did you insist on returning today when the weather is so bad?” Rion complained but I chose to ignore him, focusing all my attention on the view through the window as the car drove through the muddy path.Call me crazy but I have this tick, this hunch that something is horribly wrong. The issue with Alpha Zeke was thankfully trivial enough that it could be sorted out through discussion. He invited me to stay for a few days and I would have been inclined to accept the offer if this feeling of dread hadn't suddenly crashed over me like an unforgiving wave.I woke up today with a stomach ache, something that rarely happened. I was served a feast but I could barely eat anything, I just felt so unedge, like something wasn't right.Rion noticed it. After breakfast, he confronted me about it and I honestly had no idea what to tell him as I, myself, have no idea wha
