She was his alone. Her body his one solace. He was determined to know every inch of her intimately. He knew it was his strength she feared, not what he was doing to her. She stiffened, her body rigid when he pinned her to the blanket. He bent his dark head, his teeth scraping the inside of her thigh.She jerked beneath him, then exhaled sharply. There were no walls, no ceiling, no floor, nothing but space and the man. His hands moved over her body, explored, memorized, possessed, even as his mouth drove her wild, took her over and over the edge until she shattered into a million fragments and he put her back together again just to repeat the process. It was endless, forever; it went on and on until she thought she might explode.She caught his hair and tugged at him, wanting his body, needing him to fill her, to merge completely with her. He reluctantly complied, covering her slender frame with his husky one. He pressed against her and felt her moist heat, ready, enticing him, needing
Olivera's POV:He was a dickhead. He was very stubborn. At first I had thought that being rude to him would offend him enough to leave the room to me, but rather the impudent Alpha had stayed back, till I had returned from bathing. When I had told him to give me space, I had hoped that he would walk away, after all his mistress was waiting for him, supposedly naked in their room together. So, how could he stay here? What was he waiting for? These thoughts had ravaged my mind as I had sunk myself deep in the bathtub, breathing out deeply in relief, feeling the water soothe me therapeutically. But in the next few minutes I was feeling bereaved, whilst thinking of Jeremy. I hadn't been able to stop myself from thinking that my best friend wasn't allowed this luxury of mine. He had stayed in the same stinky prison with me, but he had just been led to the other quarter to stay. No food, no bath. Or was the beta different? I wasn't sure. I could only hope.My enjoyment of the bath was cut s
Good riddance to bad rubbish. I thought, returning to my meal. Taking up the sandwich again, I sighed, feeling my appetite gone. Why wouldn't it though? My so-called mate was sleeping with another woman. How else was I supposed to feel? I sighed again as I felt the tear run down my cheeks. This was going to be a long night. I thought, knowing that I would find it hard enough to sleep until he returned to his room. He should, or there was a possibility that I wouldn't be sleeping tonight at all. My heart was already clutching itself in hurt. Sniffing, I forced myself to continue eating. I hated the thought of wasting the food, whilst Jeremy might be looking for one. I hated this feeling of misery the most.A knock sounded on the door after some minutes, and I took my lips in, my eyes facing the direction of the door. Who was that again? I thought, not in the mood to see anybody. I just wanted to be left alone. I knew that it was not the Alpha. He would rather die, than knock on the doo
Author's POV:Jeremy looked around the sitting room where he had just walked into with the Beta of the wicked pack, wondering what exactly he was going here. This beautiful place was definitely not his slave quarters. He wanted to ask why the man had brought him here, but unsurety made him decide that it was better to shut his mouth and wait for events to unfold. Whatever that wanted to happen should happen. "Take this..." he heard, and furrowed his eyebrows when he saw a towel on the Beta's hand. His puzzlement must show on his face, because the man chuckled and went ahead to explain why he was handing him a towel."You need to take your bath, before having something to eat. Nick tells me that you are a good boy. My name is Roland, and I am sure you know that I am the Beta of this pack. I know you should be in your quarters now, but I thought it better that you have some food, and wash up first. You kind of stink. I am sure that's what your mate would have wanted." Roland stated, an
Olivera had stayed awake ever since Nick had left the room. Currently, she was counting the number of boxed spaces in the ceilings of the room. She turned and turned over on the bed, totally restless and confused. After a while of tossing around, she stood up from the bed and walked towards the secret room. Since sleep was far from her, she decided to spend the time investigating the Luna and what she had to do with her family.Getting to the wall, she traced the patterns, believing that it would work as it had before, but to her astonishment the door refused to budge. What the hell was this now? she thought, tracing the pattern again. But as before, nothing happened.She stepped back a bit, and reassessed the drawings to see if something had changed, but alas, nothing has. So, why wasn't the door opening? Had she made an error while shutting it the last time, or had someone tampered with the doorway? She wondered, her mind going to the guards who had worked on her door before she and
Olivera's POV:I got giddy with excitement, aware of the guffy smile on my face when I noticed a safe just behind the painting, this time it was stuck to the wall, more like in the wall. It was also at the exact point where I had felt the thickness through the painting. Another secret of the Luna. I thought, wondering what could be inside there. What could she be hiding? And why hadn't she hidden it in the secret room? That confined place was secret enough after all. Why pick out another one?Curiosity spurring me on, I tried to remove the painting totally from the wall when all of a sudden, I heard movements in the passageway. The ruthless man was back! I thought, cussing loudly. I let the painting drop from my hand, thereby causing it to stick back to the wall. So careful not to slip off the stool while in a haste, I got down from the stool slowly and gingerly and then, rushed back to the bed, quickly burrowing underneath the sheets, my heart pounding especially when I heard the do
"I know you can't say no to my touch, slave. No woman does. Not even if you are a goddess." Raul whispered into my ear, and I balked, feeling anger coarse through me, such that his pinching of my nipples sexily wasn't able to abate it. His pride and ego was so annoying. But that was good enough for me. It had arrived just in time to prevent me from making another mistake I would likely regret when I wake up later this morning. "Get off my body." I said, through gritted teeth, and he raised his head, obviously shocked at the turnout of events. He stared at me for a while, then obediently got off from my body. Free from his onslaught, I sat up on the bed, returning his stares. His arms folded across his chest, he watched as I adjusted my dress, and returned my gaze to him. "Aren't you going to leave?" I asked him, resentment pouring into my voice. But if he had heard me, he made no indication of that. He just looked on at me, unblinkingly. What? Why was he looking at me that way? Had
Raul's POV:I almost barked at Seth for interrupting my private time with the slave, I mean Olivera, but for the fact that my gamma wouldn't just chime in if the matter wasn't grave or serious. But I so wished that he had come at a later time, perhaps when I have sated my hunger and thirst for a sexual encounter with my mate. Her jealousy had been phenomenal and cute; watching her get angry had been a turn on. But she didn't know. If she had, she would have just kept quiet and let me drop a kiss on her mouth and then leave. She had been angry about my mistress, Azeera. If only she knew that Azeera's eyes couldn't turn me on, nor could her voice do the magic. What we had was just a matter of convenience, something that was already threatened by her{Olivera} presence."I'm sorry for interrupting your resting time, my Alpha…" Seth mentioned, and I gritted my teeth, turning away from him, leading the way down the hall to the small room at the edge where I sometimes hung out with my two fr
When they clambered to the surface of the ground, away from the lab, the girls breathed in relief, freed from the nightmares they had been subjected to for years. It was then that Olivera took a blood bag from the polythene in her arms, feeling better in the night hair, and took a sip, wary of how the blood would taste. She had heard Jacob talking about the heady feeling, worse if it came from an ancient. But it still hadn’t prepared her for the kick of pleasure. She found herself moaning as she greedily drank the blood, until she drained the bag. When she was done, she looked at the others. They were staring at her with unexplainable emotions on their faces. At least it wasn’t disgust. Olivera thought with a shrug, before handing the bag over to Miriam. When her friend hesitated in collecting it, she piqued an eyebrow. “You want to do the dismantling of the structure, without alerting the soldiers?” Miriam huffed, and took the bag. As much as she had great magic, she didn’t want
The first thing Olivera saw when she stepped into the hole where the passageway stopped was the largeness of the space, which could contain more than five thousand people. Then she saw the tubes, the boiling liquids and the lab rats. A modern lab.‘Where are you?’ She asked the girl, needing to get out of here; it was making her nauseous. Ten more minutes here, and she might be vomiting all over the place. And there was the fact that she didn’t know when the soldiers would be waking up. ‘At the far end of the cave…’Olivera nodded as if the girl was speaking to her physically. And gesturing with her head, for Miriam to follow her, she sauntered toward the end of the hall, making sure not to look at the tubes housing different organs and parts of an organism. What the hell! She screamed mentally when she saw a full brain at a table which looked like a butchering table. “Oh, my god…what are they doing here?” She heard Miriam ask beside her and sighed. Whose brain was that? A human
Miriam’s heart pounded erratically as she followed Olivera, who seemed very confident on what she was doing, and on where she was going. Three times she thought of grabbing Olivera and walking away from the region, but she also knew it would have been a futile attempt. Her friend’s mind was already made up. She watched as the latter walked past the last barrack, and stopped by a pole, the only pole in the backyard. Behind it were the gates towering them. They have come to a dead end. “Olivera, there is nothing here? Are you sure this girl is real?” Olivera gave Miriam no answer, instead she concentrated on looking around her, waiting for the signal. When she got nothing, she traced the vibration residue, touching the girl’s mind. A jerk in her mind path told her that the girl was surprised she had breached her mind guards. But should she be surprised? Or was something else at play here? ‘Where next should I go?’ She continued, because she knew she was at the right place, that t
“How are we getting past that?” Olivera asked Miriam as they came to stand before a huge gate that towered many feet over them. She could now see why Miriam had wanted the journey to be done in the privacy of the night. As much as she could see—as they had zapped to this point—this area wasn’t open to the city dwellers, only to the special few. She looked around her again. Barracks with soldiers sleeping within. None was even standing guard at the gates. She didn’t believe such a thing would exist at this time. City gates. Where did it lead? She piqued an eyebrow when Miriam smirked. What was the latter thinking? “As if you don’t already know…which other way, if not by mist…there is no way I am climbing that. I don’t think I am ready to fly with you above it…” Miriam spoke, covering the distance between them, and wrapping her arms around Olivera, her mouth fixed in a pout. Olivera shook her head, yet unable to stop the smile that cascaded her lips. It seemed that her friend was g
A knock woke Olivera up from her deep slumber. After bathing and eating off the snacks she had bought earlier in the day, from the shops in the new city, she had fallen like a log of wood to the bed, and hadn’t even stirred after that. Still groggy from the smooth sleep, she let her hand search for her phone which was the only thing that had gone to bed with her, should Miriam call for her. She peered at the screen. It was one in the morning. It was time then. She yawned like a hyena, causing Miriam to chuckle from behind the door. The chuckle dissipated the remaining fog fostering around her head. Taking a deep breath in, she stood up from the bed, flung a sheet around her naked body, and walked to the door. When she opened it, she saw that Miriam was alone, and carrying a tray of steaming food. “You are a lifesaver.” She muttered, opening the door wider for her friend to come in; the rumbling sounds that emitted from her stomach in agreement with her. Miriam chuckled again, an
“Where are we heading next?” Olivera asked Miriam immediately they stepped out of the borders of the town, into a city sprawling with people. After they had left the males who had tried to detain them because of her eating habits, they had walked to the largest building in the town, because if Clooney was a big name, it was probably because the man was rich. They hadn’t been right in their deduction, but they had at least gotten away from the unsettling males. Olivera had taken her friend behind the building, and had quickly switched to her mist form, turning Miriam into the same, and together they had zapped the remainder of the city without stopping, till they were out of it, till they were in a new one which looked more modernized than the previous. She looked at Miriam, who was staring at the city with artificial skylights, and wondered if her friend had ever been here before. “I never get over the culture shock, you know, seeing the drabness of the town we just left. The cont
What now? Olivera thought, looking at the six males that couldn’t be a year older than twenty five years old. What were they doing in front of her? “State your names, and what you are doing in this town…” The male, slightly in front of the others, spoke with a steel voice, causing Olivera and Miriam to exchange furtive glances. What was going on?There was a minute hesitation before Olivera spoke. “I am Darcy. My friend is Lilian. Who are you?” She patted herself mentally for names well cooked and delivered. Darcy and Lilian? How had she come up with those seemingly true names? She watched the male that had just spoken, looked to his comrades behind him, and judged that he was the leader of this small group. Were they the police? She looked at them again. They didn’t look like the police. Vigilantes? Maybe. But why were there vigilantes in the town? She kept a seal on her thoughts when the male returned her attention to her. “My name is Luke, and these are my associates. Our job is
“We will kill him right?” Miriam asked, as they stepped out of the camp, and turned around to look at it again, reliving what they had seen in there. “We need to. He is evil. Why will a sane man work with a vampire? Is he crazy?” Olivera just couldn’t understand the foolishness, no matter how much she tried. Why would one make a deal with an almost eternal wickedness? Had he no fear for his life, for his family? “I think he is crazy. Evil-y crazy. But that’s by the way. What are we going to do now?” Olivera looked around the camp, and spat in disgust. “We will burn it down. We will burn it until it’s nothing but dust. We will eradicate this curse from the face of the earth.” Miriam couldn’t agree less, but then she remembered that the ancients might have use for the materials in there. Olivera, having sensed the latter’s thoughts, shook her head. “They won’t be needing it. I’ve already transferred the necessary details to Raul, and Jacob. They can take it up from there. The mater
“Do you think anyone is in there?” Olivera asked Miriam, immediately she shifted to human self. Miriam looked at her clothed self and smiled. “Seems you have gotten the best hang of shifting, and still keeping your clothes on.” Olivera shrugged her shoulders. “There was no other choice. I can’t keep going up and down with my clothes in my hands or mouth. Since I’m part ancient, I have to improvise.” She took in a deep breath, inhaling the air tainted with magic and something else. “This place is tainted with magic. You smell it?” She shook off the imaginary dirt on her clothes, just in case, whilst waiting for Miriam’s reply. When she looked up, her friend was smiling. “What’s tickling your fancy? I don’t think my question has that much prowess…” Miriam cackled. “I never thought riding on a wolf would be so exhilarating. If I had known, I would have befriended a werewolf, and snagged rides every week at least. It’s quite freeing and therapeutic.” Olivera nodded. It was just as
