CHAPTER 9:"Adrianna? What do you mean? How do you know her?" Roman asked with a frown on his face.His wolf snarled and threatened to jump out at the accusation leveled against Adrianna."Yes…" Dianne said, her lips quivering due to feigned fear."What did she do to you, huh?" He asked and held onto her tighter like he wanted to protect her."Promise me you won't punish her or lock her up. I think she was used." She said, trying to plead on behalf of Adrianna but then she was only adding to the fire."If she's guilty of any crime, I can't let her go. She has to be punished." He said resolutely and Dianne hugged him tighter.A wicked smirk crept onto her face and she said, "No..no…" Her voice shook slightly."Darius will come for us again." She said and immediately Roman pulled her face away."Tell me." He ordered, cupping her face in his hands."While I was at the Crescent Pack…" She began, her eyes darting to look around the whole room. She depicted how fearful she was, perfectly an
CHAPTER 10:"What interrogation? I'm innocent!" Adrianna screamed and she looked at all the guards that had gathered her.Her gaze was frantic as she tried to stand up to her feet."Sit down!" The head guard shouted and immediately Adrianna sat down. Her buttocks hit the chair, hard.With a smirk on the head guard's face, he walked toward Adrianna and looked her in the eyes."We need the truth from you and nothing but the truth." He said, in a sinister tone and Adrianna shivered.In the next second, Adrianna nodded her head slightly, at the guard's words."What pack are you from?" The head guard asked, standing upright. He then folded his bulging arms, making him look fierce before Adrianna.Even though Adrianna didn't like to be bullied, she knew she didn't stand a chance against the head guard. She wouldn't even touch the hem of his garment, with all the other guards present."I'm not from any pack. What's a pack? Pack of wolves?" Adrianna replied with a big frown on her face."Don'
CHAPTER 11:"Death will be an instant relief for you. I don't want that." The head guard replied immediately and walked toward Adrianna.In one swift second, he held onto her and dragged her up, along with the chair.Adrianna's body sat limply on the chair, with her eyes closed and tears still streaming down her face."Stop crying." The head guard said, and threw a slap across Adrianna's face.Her head whipped to the side but then she didn't give any reaction even though she felt pain.It was like her heart was dead at that moment.On the other hand, the guard was irritated by her tears and immediately, he swung his hand against her head.In the next second, Adrianna passed out, her breath shallow.__Days passed and Adrianna was left in the prison. She was without any care or treatment and she had to go day by day with her broken limb."Hey, there…" A guard shouted.Adrianna who lay still on the bare ground didn't give any response to the guard.Her face was pale and stained with blo
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
