ROSEOak took a deep breath, and gestured to me to hide behind his wardrobe. There was no time to cross the vast length of room to the other side, so we just had to make do with what we had right now. I quickly ran towards the wardrobe, and threw myself against the door. Out of the corner of my eyes, I noticed that Oak quickly wore his shorts as he took his time picking my clothes up, and shifting it to a corner."Who is it?" He asked calmly."Sir, it’s the head maid," came Miss Taylor’s reply.This woman couldn’t just leave me for a minute. Goddess knows that I was tired of her at this point, but I didn’t know what else to do with her. I just had to bear it till Oak had the courage to stand up to Raven, and make him take away tis unfair punishment.Biting back a depressing sigh, I watched as Oak walked over to the door, and threw it open. Miss Taylor stood at the other end of the door, but I couldn’t see her properly, but she was definitely making an awkward gesture."What do you wa
ROSE POINT OF VIEWThe screams of the people filled the air as everyone ran in every direction, clearly terrified for their lives. Why today, of all days—on my wedding day? The horrifying cries of my pack members, the nauseating scent of blood, and the scattered limbs on the floor were too much to bear.I wanted to run, but adrenaline froze me in place, keeping me from fleeing as my fiancé, Marcus, gripped my hands tightly. I hid behind him, hoping his presence would offer some protection. The attackers soon invaded our pack home—large wolves baring their teeth, ready to kill, and a few men riding on horseback. "Looks like there's nowhere left for you to run, Alpha Kane," my uncle said, a wicked grin spreading across his face. By this time, the attackers had killed most of the guards and shut the Hall's door, trapping the few of us still alive. I stared at the scattered bodies of my family members on the floor—distant cousins, aunts—all of them had gathered for my wedding day, only to
I laid down on the cold dungeon floor, my stomach growling with hunger, but my mind kept returning to what I had endured. The sight of my father’s head rolling on the ground brought me intense pain, almost too much to bear. I had spent two days in the cold, dark dungeon since I passed out, with no food or water. I cried day and night, desperately hoping that this was nothing but a cruel nightmare.Suddenly, the dungeon door flew open, flooding the room with blinding light. I had to shield my eyes from the harsh brightness as a couple of guards stormed in, grabbing me by the arms and yanking me to my feet. Without a chance for questions, they dragged me through the castle to a large room and shoved me aggressively to the ground.I lifted my head slowly to take in my surroundings. Naked women paraded around, serving food and drinks. My uncle sat in the middle, looking down at me while a naked woman sat on his lap, clearly for his own satisfaction. Next to him sat an older but muscular m
I stood there while they stared at me; they couldn't tear their eyes away, and neither could I keep my gaze from them. My heart was pounding furiously in my chest, and I struggled to control it. What should I do or say? I was disoriented, to say the least. Alpha Kael’s son—or maybe sons, judging by their similarity in looks they are probably brothers—were my mates?“Where were you two?” Alpha Kael asked suddenly, redirecting their attention. The one with the darker hair gave me one last look before walking past me, his body brushing against mine slightly. My wolf nearly jumped out to pounce on him.The brown-haired one kept his eyes on me before following. I turned to look at them as they focused on Alpha Kael, who asked, “Where were you two?”“Men can’t go horse riding, Father,” the one with the darker hair responded. I saw Alpha Kael’s jaw clench with anger. His expression suggested he might explode at any moment, but the darker-haired brother seemed unfazed.Noticing the tension, t
4Fear.It was unexplainable and felt like a living, breathable mask as it moved through my body. I didn’t think that I would be able to breathe anymore. I felt like I was finished and broken in so many ways that could not be explained."Move!" The guard’s voice sounded distorted in my head, but still I moved forward, unable to do anything else. Suddenly, I was groped at either side of my hands and jerked forward. My ankle twisted painfully, but I wasn’t given ample time to process it. I was suddenly outside and led through the back of the packhouse towards the lone building at the extreme end. It was made of stone, and I felt horrified at the thought of dying in here. I wanted to protest even more that I didn’t kill anyone, but my lips wouldn’t move.Immediately we got to the door of the building; it beeped, and the double doors pulled in. I was shoved right in there without much drama. It seemed to me like it was a mini-cell, but it was stained with blood and vomit. I moved back a
OAKI placed a hand on my thigh as I struggled to rein in my emotions. But all I could think of was my mate, Rose, being in that damn cell all by herself. I could only hope that she wasn’t tortured so badly. I needed her to be fine and without any form of fear of clouding her senses. But that seemed like an unachievable wish at this moment.Rubbing my short brown hair, I looked at Raven, who was seated at the opposite side of me, pressing his tablet without a care in the world. How could he be so chill when everything was falling apart like this? I just didn’t understand it!His eyes suddenly connected to mine as though he knew I was looking at him, and I looked elsewhere at once. "Some people keep siding with murderers," I grumbled under my breath as I tapped the handle of my chair. "It would have been perfect if we praised Alpha Kael’s killer for sniffing his life off after how he treats women in his fucking life.""Hey!"I looked up in shock as Raven suddenly grabbed a hold of the
ROSEMy head was spinning so hard, but the guard’s words slipped into my mind like a blanket. The priest was here, so I would be free. I know he would inform them that I didn’t do something wrong. I know he wouldn’t tell a lie. Yes, this time, I would be fine."Do you need some special invitation to get up from there?" Blade snapped.I looked up lightly as I tried to stand, but the rope held me bound. Blake swore as someone in the background informed him that I was still tied to the chair. The next thing I knew was that there were ropes sliding off my body.Then, I was hoisted up harshly. "Please, easy," I managed."Shut up!" Blade snapped at me.I shook lightly, my left foot taking a step back. He didn’t have that and pulled me harshly forward. How my limbs were moving despite the severe pain that I had gone through stunned me breathlessly. I didn’t understand anything."I can’t believe that the twins want her out of the torture room. If I were them, I would torture her till she woul
ROSE'Be calm.'Was that my wolf, Meghan? Did she finally try to talk to me?'Rose, say something,' she said once more.I sniffed as I pulled the maid gown away from me. It’s dull blue color was slightly blinding and annoying to me. 'You finally decided to speak with me,' I mumbled through the mind-link.She purred, and I felt strangely comforted. She was truly here to help me out. 'I know that you felt like I had left you for good,' she whispered. I sniffed in response to her words. 'But that is not true. I could never leave you just like that, Rose. You have been my best friend since I became your wolf, so why would I leave you? I was just weak, and I had to stay away from the pain for a time. Though that thing they did with us really shook me.'I nodded as I cleaned a tear. 'It was horrible, but I feel a bit like myself now. Though I don’t have any appetite to eat.''Even if you wanted to eat, I doubt they would give you something to eat here. No one likes you around here,' she po

ROSEOak’s fingers slid through my folds, and all I could think about was how hot it felt like. I turned on his fingers, as a moan slid from my lips. "Please, Oak, I need this," I pleaded softly.He held my lean waist and for a minute, I thought that he must have stopped, but he intensified his hand movement, and I rapped on his fingers like a being possessed. "More, I cried.Oak retrieved his fingers, only for his tongue to lap onto my juices. I just didn’t know if I could breathe at all right now. Everything felt so intense and so real. I felt my hand softly grasp his hair softly, and I just wanted to go crazy with need. "Delicious," he breathed out against my wet cunt, and I simply moaned like an idiot.He thinks I’m delicious. That made my nipple harden and I pulsed with cum. There was no way anyone could tell me that, and it wouldn’t hit hard. I just needed this. I wanted the hotness. I wanted the love that it could offer me at once, and I wasn’t ashamed of it.Slowly I jerked O
ROSEI groaned as slumped down on my bed for the 5th time today. I was honestly so stressed and I needed all the rest that I could get before Miss Taylor showed up with another task. Rolling on my back, I realised that I had just one day to handle to surprise gifts I wanted to give Oak. Phew!'Since you started sleeping with Oak, you have barely told me a word, why is that so?' My wolf queried softly.I bit my lips a bit, feeling bad. 'I’m so sorry about that, but I just felt that you won’t approve, so I didn’t say a word to you,' I grumbled.She sighed. 'He is our mate, and I have always said that he is calmer than Raven. As your wolf, it’s my duty to protect you from harm. I can’t do that if you hide things from me. You are already going through a lot as it is, and I don’t wish to make it worse for you.'I combed my hair with my hands softly. 'I seriously understand what you mean. But, I have more issues with Miss Taylor to worry about. You should help me with her.'I felt like she
ROSEIt’s been about seven hours of non-stop working in the kitchen, and I honestly couldn’t feel my legs. No, to be honest, everything hurt. It was not the best moment, but very much my reality. I sighed as I made my way to the sink with the bowl of kennels in my hand. I poured the most of it in the sink, and proceeded to turn on the tap. The clear water washed off the worst of the dirt off the kennel. But, I found myself thinking who would ease my own pain."Hello!"I blinked as I turned to the door. Miss Taylor stood there, looking as stern as always. Jeez! I wish this woman would just disappear honestly. She got on my last nerve. She held herself upright as she folded her hands across her middle. The rest of the maids were still as they all waited for what she would say."Ok, do I have your attention?" She asked."Yes, ma’am," we all said at once.She nodded, and for the first time, her face cracked into a smile. Who was she going to torture this time? I didn’t believe anything t
ROSE"What the fuck?"Luckily, Oak had a robe at the back of the bathroom door which I had quickly thrown on to cover up my nakedness. I really hoped that Celine wouldn’t notice it right now. The least I wanted was for her to leave like she had come, but that would be asking for too much."Celine, is it not too early to cuss?" Oak asked slowly.Celine frowned as she eyed me. "What is this woman doing here?"I watched as Oak groaned, and slowly sat up on the bed. The blanket luckily covered up most of his manly parts. I tried hard not to panic, and suddenly wish that I had vampire powers to make things disappear, but I didn’t so I was stuck to the ground, praying to the moon goddess for mercy."She has a name, and you shouldn’t come to my room to create a scene, ok?" Oak snapped at once.Celine scoffed. "I don’t care what her name is. I told you from the start that I didn’t like this woman. She is so annoying and a complete evil person. She doesn’t even have a right to breathe the same
ROSEHis words made me feel weak to my stomach. The question if I should do this when Raven had gotten his feel of me, and..."What are you thinking?" He asked softly as his fingers slid down my arms. I blushed softly, and enjoyed every bit of the way that his fingers made me feel. Throwing my head back against his chest, it made it easier to hear his heartbeat, and realise it was anything but quiet. I was the one who made him feel this way...A reluctant smile touched my lips. "Is this something you really want to do with me?"His right hand found its way to my waist, kneading softly. "This is what I wanted to do for a long time now. But, I have been fighting myself because I felt that things were so complicated between us. But, not anymore," he whined, as his tongue flicked across my cheeks. "I just want to undress you, and love your body."I closed my eyes as I let his dirty words wash over me. His dick was pressing against my lower back, teasing me, and taunting me at the same ti
ROSEThere, I said it!But his green eyes were so hard, and I could barely see what he was thinking through them. But, all I wanted was to have some freedom from him. It hurt so hard, but what could I do? He plainly couldn’t stand me, and the only reason he was here was to sleep with me. That was it!"What nonsense are you saying, Rose?" He asked instead, shocking me.I rose to my feet, as I stared out of the windows. My room was too small, and that was the reason I wasn’t squatting with other girls. And now, it was suffocating me a bit too much, and I just couldn’t breathe.I clasped my hand in front of me. "You understand everything," I said instead."No, I don’t," he grumbled.I sighed. "I don’t understand this. You think that I’m your father’s killer. You can’t even stop seeing women that you know wants you. You have done nothing for me except making my life miserable."He frowned lightly at me, obviously displeased about what I was saying, but now, that I have started taking, I f
RAVEN"Raven, please come back," I could hear Bianca’s voice behind me, but it felt like a fly buzzing my ear drum.When she touched my arm, I shoved her backwards before storming out of room. From what I could see Rose was running towards the maid’s quarters. She definitely didn’t want me to follow her at all. What do I do now?She told me to leave her be and not cause a scene earlier and now..."It’s not what you think," I screamed like an idiot through the length of the room. But, she didn’t turn back, or even stop.Jeez!How was I going to fix this mess?The fact was that she wouldn’t believe that I didn’t have anything to do with Bianca because she had caught me in a compromising situation earlier, and I seriously hated myself for this."You’re begging Rose?"The sound of Bianca’s irritation made me so annoyed. I turned to her, and noticed she had worn a baggy shirt at least. There was shock written all over her face. "So?" I snapped.She shook her head. "I never thought that t
RAVENIt has been less than 7 hours since I last saw Rose, and I seriously couldn’t stop thinking about what she had told me. But, how do I reconcile the fact that father had died with her in the damn room? I knew what the priest had said, but my heart just couldn’t take the pain.'You should just talk to her,' Henry whispered softly.I sighed as I combed my hair with the blue comb I always carried around. 'What should I tell her?'My reflection barely gave me answers to that question. I only felt more frustrated, and annoyed. I growled lowly, looking away from the mirror, and moving as fast as I could to the wardrobe. I picked the back pant suit that I got earlier that week at a fashion store. It would be appropriate for my position during the meeting.'Well,' Harry spoke up after what seemed like a long time. 'You can just ask her about what happened that night. It’s easy to have a warped idea of the whole thing, but if you can genuinely talk to her, and believe her words, then, it
