CHAPTER 12:

The dungeon floor was dirty but then Adrianna did not care.

She lay on the floor and coiled herself into a ball. She looked like a fetus in the womb.

Her heart was clenching and unclenching and she felt like she was going to die any moment from then.

Dianne's words continued to ring in her head and even though the feelings she had for Roman were gone, Dianne had ridiculed and made her feel less.

Three hours passed and Adrianna was still laying in the same position.

Her eyes were closed and dried tears could be seen on her dirty face.

She was deep into sleep and in her sleep, she was walking barefooted along a narrow path.

However, in the next second, she was suddenly dragged backward.

"What! Let go of me!" Adrianna cried out and she tried to see who was holding onto her; however, she saw no one.

"What?" She asked, skeptically as her eyes widened due to fear.

She could feel a strong grip around her arm but she could see no one around her.

"Ahhhh…" Adrianna let out a bone-ch

    CHAPTER 13:"N-no, I'm not doing anything." Adrianna replied immediately.The guard turned around fully and immediately opened the door."What do you think you're doing? You want to escape?" The guard asked, with a sinister smile on his face as he marched into the dungeon.Adrianna started to take steps back and in the next moment, she stumbled."What? You can't even stand? Are you so weak? Pathetic human." The guard insulted and in two steps, he was before Adrianna, towering over her."Get away from me." Adrianna said, in a frightened tone. Her face appeared frightened and she started to move on the ground.She wanted to attract the guard to touch her. Her plan was in motion and immediately the guard bent forward and caught hold of Adrianna's cloth."Let me go, please." She begged. She acted really scared and her eyes started to leak tears."You scared?" The guard asked, with a proud smile on his face. Holding onto Adrianna's tattered dress with one hand, he raised his hand and aimed

    CHAPTER 14:"Your highness!" The head guard called out as soon as he spotted Roman walking down the hallway."Your highness!!" The head guard called out again and immediately Roman turned to look at him."Yes?" Roman asked and immediately he heard the loud sound of the bell."What's happening?" He asked, immediately with a frown on his face."The prisoner escaped." The head guard replied with an unreadable expression on his face.He couldn't look Roman in the eye but then in the next second, Roman whizzed past him."What?" The head guard let out in a surprised tone and he saw Roman already running down the hallway.In the next second, he started to run after Roman as they both headed toward the dungeon."Adrianna!!" Roman yelled as he got to the door of the dungeon but then he was met with the sight of the knocked-out guy on the dirt floor."How the hell did she escape?" Roman yelled in anger and frustration.He didn't like the feeling of Adrianna not being in his vicinity."Get that

    CHAPTER 15:Dianne looked up at Roman as she said those words. Her eyes were teary and her cheeks were stained with tears."What do you mean I should let her go? She is a prisoner and it would be a shame if my prisoner escape." Roman reiterated, still with a frown on his face.However, in the next second, Dianne sat upright on the bed."No one else would know that she got away. She is just a sorry excuse to replace me." Dianne said."Also, we should allow her go back to her Pack. Her Alpha must really be in need of her. We know she is our enemy now and we will be able to take precautions against her in the future." Dianne reasoned and Roman's heart wavered.His eyes searched Dianne's face but then he couldn't even detect anything."Okay." He said, finally, casting his eyes down."I'll stop the search for her." He added and a smile bloomed on Dianne's face.In the next moment, Roman's eyes turned hazy and it was obvious that he was trying to mind-link the guards."Stop the search and g

    CHAPTER 16:Days passed and Roman had been in a gloomy mood.He had missed Adrianna greatly but then he didn't know how to get her back to the pack.For some time, he regretted letting Adrianna go but then it was too late."Are you okay?" He heard Dianne's voice behind him and immediately he turned around.Roman was standing in his study as he has been overseeing the pack duties since his father was out of the pack for some time."Yes, I am." Roman said, placing a fake smile on his face."You look stressed." Dianne said, and then went to stand before Roman.For a moment, she glanced at his desk and she could see scattered documents all over."Yes. It's hard keeping up with the pack duties." He lied through his teeth. Dealing with his duties was one thing he liked but then he felt like he had lost connection with his wolf ever since Adrianna left."Ohh…" Dianne said, with a strained smile on her face.It turned out that her joy of pushing Adrianna out of the pack was short-lived as Rom

    CHAPTER 17:Roman's eyes shone as he found the opportunity to see Adrianna again. However, he didn't see the malicious look in Dianne's eyes.In the next second, he turned around and instantly, Dianne placed a happy smile on her face."I never knew I had a sister." She said, placing her palm on her open mouth. Her eyes became teary and she acted really surprised.On the other hand, Roman's heart melted as soon as he spotted the tears in her eyes. He was already happy due to the thought of finding Dianne and now, his heart couldn't put up a wall against Dianne."It's okay." He said and then he drew her into his arms."I'll find her." He added and immediately he detached himself from her."Are you leaving?" Dianne asked, with a weary look in her eyes. She felt that if he left, she would lose him finally as Adrianna was his true mate."No, I need to address a few things before I set out to look for her." He replied, and then leaned forward to place a kiss on her cheek.In the next second

    Chapter 18She's not our mate“Isn't that… Adrianna's…clothes?” Dianne asked with wide eyes when she entered the place.She was disgusted by the sight of the place. Knowing that dead bodies were kept there, she just wanted to stay away from it, but she had to act concerned for Adrianna.'You are a kind and sweet girl' she kept telling herself in her heart. She hated the fact that she was here all because of Adrianna, but she was glad that the girl was dead at last.Roman had frozen on the spot. He couldn't move from where he stood as his eyes examined the dead girl on the table. His heart was beating so fast in his chest and he could hear cursing, but he was unable to figure if it was his wolf cursing him or if it was his mind at work.The man taking care of the dead bodies came and began to speak to Roman, who wasn't even hearing what he was saying“She looked badly damaged. Her face is disfigured, you won't be able to recognize her even if you see her. We have tried to get her ident

    Chapter 19“I'll go searching for Adrianne myself!” Roman announced.Dianne's eyes widened, 'What was he talking about? I want him to ignore the girl and the search, not to go himself!'“You don't have to cry anymore, Dianne. I know you must be angry at me that I treated your sister in that manner, but trust me, I didn't know she was your sister. Dianne, today I promise to get her back for you”When he didn't hear any reply from Dianne, he clenched his fist and decided to leave the room. But Dianne stopped him.“Roman…” her voice meek and soft, “Where are you going?” She asked.Roman turned back to her, “I'll go in search of Adrianna for you”“Can't the head guard and his people do it alone? I would rather not have you away from me for too long” she said, but Roman shook his head before sitting beside the bed to caress her hair.“It would be better that I go before they find another dead girl” he smiled and Dianne also forces a smile“I will go with you then” she sat up, ready to leav

    Adrianna just got out of the hospital after spending a night there. She never knew she had the strength to run that fast and that far. She had run all the way to the human world on foot.When she got deep into the forest, she came across a freshly dead body. She was disgusted by it and threw up immediately. The person had died a very horrible death because the face was beyond recognition?She wondered who could have done something like this to this poor human being, but then it clicked that she might not be a human. The girl was likely a werewolf like the rest of them, and it might just be normal here. After all, they feed on humans and themselves?She came back to observe the girl, her mind keeps telling her to change her clothes, but she would rather not touch such a thing“It's all you've got,” the voice told her. Adrianna looked around for where the voice was coming from, but there was no one there, so she concluded that it was just her head telling her to do so.She seized her br

    “You did what?”Asher sighed. His Beta’s jaws was currently hanging off the floor. He had known Victor would strongly oppose, known also that Elise was one of the few creatures on this earth that managed to unnerve the life out of him. The woman creeps Asher out too, and once, maybe he’d liked the dangerous and sexy type. But he was literally a married man now and the only reason Elise would be coming to the pack was so that she can help find Kihara.“You invited her here? Are you mad?” Victor continued loudly.“Keep your voice down okay,” Asher hushed. “You know Victor, that we’ve been doing this ourselves for a while and failing. We need help, and she’s the best help we can get.”Victor shook his head, the look of horror on his face still not clearing. “Of course she’s the best Asher, she’s a fucking bounty hunter, hired killer, assassin,” Victor counted on his fingers, his eyes seemingly widening each time he dropped a finger. “And a fucking were-snake Asher, let’s not forget about

    Twilight pack had gradually declined to a somber graveyard in the absence of it’s Luna. The halls bleak and lacking of color, every wolf felt the same bleakness inside of them, as though an emptiness had been carved in their hearts. More cruel was that they had no idea what to do. To mourn their Luna? For if she was dead, then that was the right thing to do. Or to hope? To dare look up to the moon and hope that she was still alive and that one day she would be returned? It did not seem likely, but it was a possibility they were willing to entertain. For their alpha, he needed it, needed that hope. That was all he ran on.Hunting down Sebastian had never become more primary than now. Asher has men combing every nook and cranny of this town. He was sure that one day, he would hit the jackpot and one of those searches would unlock the villains hiding place. He did not need to search for long however, it seemed that the villain was done hiding.It was early morning when it happened. Asher

    “Please,” The prisoner begged, “You don’t have to do this.”Asher’s eyes burned. Why could he not do this? His mate was stolen from him, why did he not deserve to at least transfer his rage to this man who had helped make it happen.“I’ll talk, anything you want, I promise.” The whimpered, his voice pitchy and breathy.Asher paused in his steps. “Then start talking, and fast.”The man nodded furiously, his body visibly deflating with relief. “Where is Sebastian?” Asher asked coolly, the hammer hanging casually by his side.The fear was back in the man’s eyes. He looked up at Asher, his gaze with utter defeat, as he shook his head,“No?” Asher’s eyebrows twitched with impatience.“I really don’t know. I swear.” The man whimpered, voice so shaky it was barely comprehensible.“If you don’t know, then you’re not at all useful to me.” Asher growled lowly.The man fell to his knees. “We were hired randomly. They promised to take care of our families if we died for this, kill them if we didn

    TRIGGER WARNING: Themes of torture mentioned below.)Brody found him first, in the thicket where he had chosen to bleed out his feelings. He felt like a broken man and no words needed saying as Brody looked over Asher. It was obvious that he’d not found Kihara, that he had failed in protecting his mate and now she was in the hands of a moon cursed wolf.“Come on Alpha, we’ll find her another day.” Brody said. Just not today, Asher thought. How was it acceptable that he came here with his mate and has to leave without her? How is it acceptable that she remains in that man’s lair, dead or alive for even a day?Brody helped Asher up and walked him back the way he’d come, until they broke out of the woods and unto the road. Asher’s leg was still bleeding but not as profusely as earlier and the pain of the wolf’s bane was also fading. Asher missed that pain, it was more merciful than the clenching and unclenching of his heart. This ache and this utter feeling of emptiness that was evading

    Asher felt it rather than saw, from the distance of a still forming mate bond, his mate’s distress. He looked up, and that was when he saw the man that had introduced himself as Ajax with his mate. He’d knocked Kihara out and now she lay cold and unconscious in his arms. A growl tore through the air and earth. Asher’s eyes shivered with emotion, fear and anger. Ajax looked over his shoulders at him, and for once, that unsmiling, unfeeling face dissolved with a smile. He’d won.Without time to waste, and with Kihara in his arms, Ajax ran off the roads and into the mountains. His mate weighed nothing in his arms, and was hardly an inconvenience, or deterrent to his speed. Asher screamed with fury, the panic traveling up his throat, clogging his airways. The men charged at him and he swiped and stabbed at every single one of them, not holding back his strengths. He needed to get to Kihara; the only thought that rang loud in his head. He couldn’t let Ajax have her, knowing where he was t

    Ajax’s men drew their weapons, axes and blades glinting in the air like the shine of cruel death. Leila turned to Kihara hastily. “Whatever you do, you’ll stay with me okay?” Kihara nodded, her hands tightening on her gun. I have this, she thought to herself, she ought to be fine. Asher from a few feet away glanced back at them quickly, he shared a look with Brody and Leila and they seemed to understand a they both nodded. To kihara, his eyes softened and seemed to tell, ‘be safe.’ Kihara nodded at him. She did not plan to let any of these men get close to her.And they were a lot of them. They were beyond outnumbered. The men were ordinary humans, and against a dozen well trained wolves were like an army of ants, but ants that they were, they crawled towards them from every angle, swarming in as if they could choke off the air. The men were way more than preoccupied in a few seconds, battling claws with blades and axes. The wailing sound of men broke through the peaceful mountainous

    Sebastian listened quietly the messenger, a drink in his hand illuminating the colorful swirl of candlelight it captured. The messengers words echoed softly through his ear drums. After the man was done, Sebastian nodded. “You’re dismissed.”The man backed out of the room, his legs were about to cross the threshold when Sebastian called. “Don’t go back to the woods Jerry. I doubt that our boy will be anymore useful after today.”***Everything was set for their journey to Ever-moon. Transportation and envoy and the gifts Kihara had prepared for ever-moon waited downstairs while the Alpha couples exchanged swift words with each other.“You know why I worry Kihara, it is dangerous.” Asher was saying, the veins in his temples bulging as he emphasized on the word dangerous. Kihara was having none of it as she stood glaring at him with her hands crossed above her chest. ‘I don’t see how that is an issue.” They had had this conversation last night, and the night before, still, Asher was in

    Kihara had never been to the pack dungeon. She was not even aware that a place like such existed, but as it turned out, the underground bunker was not the only thing underground. The dungeon was built a bit off ways from the pack, the only thing that lead to it was well like construction with stairs. The dungeon wasn’t well kept, unlike many areas of the pack, because it was hardly used. Asher told kihara the last time it had been opened, it was used by his father, and now him, to lock up Justin.Kihara climbed down the narrow stairs that led down to the dungeon with her heart feeling heavy and in her throat, Asher right behind her. At the bottom of the stairs, the dungeon opened up to9 a big musty space. The air was hot and drier around here. Directly in the middle of the room, two iron cages sat beside each other, and Justin sat in one, on a stool, his hands and knees bound. The cages looked ordinary to Kihara, there was no reason why they should be able to hold a werewolf, Kihara w

    Kihara’s honeymoon lasted three nights. Three good nights of no worries, three nights of forgetting that there was even anything to be worried about. It ended too quickly for her liking, but they needed to get back to their duties, and Kihara needed to start hers. The bodies they found in the woods had been buried properly. In the days Kihara and Asher remained completely indoors, the only time they opened their doors was to receive food, and in their absence, Victor had taken charge. He’d put off alerting human authorities about the bodies in the woods and for good reason. No human police would not believe that the work had been done by a pack of werewolves. It’d be like putting handcuffs on their own wrists and walking to the police station to be locked behind bars, not that any police bar or handcuff could hold a werewolf. Apart from burying the bodies, there were many other issues. The pack had grown hesitant of stepping outside pack house boundaries. Members who had human jobs
