Myla-Rose Halls POV
'Bitch...! Get up...don't tell me you're a weakling now huh! Where is the all-powerful Alpha female of two years ago huh? Where is that arrogant and prideful slut of the silver moon pack?’ Hailey spat kicking me in the abdomen before ordering her friends to pour more wolf bane into my bleeding abdomen thereby preventing it from healing. I watched horrified as two blond girls walked toward me with the wolf’s bane in a small container. They poured it into my abdomen making me scream in agony while my wolf tried to force me to shift. ‘No Athena, you will get hurt if we shift.’ I cautioned her. Shifting means getting wolf's bane on her too. I don’t want any damage to come to my wolf, all this wasn’t her fault so she doesn’t need to get hurt because of me. Hailey manic laughter filled the air as she watched me suffer. There was mockery and a hint of jealousy in her eyes. The jealousy I do not understand but the mockery I did. I was his mate so of course there will always be a thin line that connects both of us, something she would never have. She watched me, while the pain I was experiencing became more and more unbearable. The wolf’s bane was already in my system cursing excruciating pain and preventing my wounds from healing. It felt like the moment the wounds heal, the wolf’s bane snaps them back open inflicting tremendous pain and suffering on me. The healing process repeats itself all over again. ‘Bitch! I don’t want to ever see you near my mate again.’ Hailey said stabbing me with a silver blade coated with wolf’s bane repeatedly. The look in her eyes was that of pure hatred and disgust. Feeling satisfied with her work of art, she spins around leaving me alone in the forest. I spat out blood trembling at the effect the wolf’s bane had on me. A sly yet sadistic smile graced my face. I was getting punished for her own foolish mistake. How silly! Soon, I started to feel my head spinning and my mind becoming foggy and I closed my eyes embracing the darkness. Maybe that is where my peace lies, I thought a faint smile on my lips before the darkness finally consumed me. ... I woke up to the foul smell of disinfectant, My brow furrowed in confusion. I reached out to touch my wounds and was confused when I felt that they had been bandaged up. Looking around, though it was dark, the environment seemed familiar to me, this was Derrick’s place. Was he the one that brought me here? I wondered, standing up from the comfortable bed, despite my body's protest, I winced loudly when I felt my wound opening making me fall back on the bed with a soft thud sound. 'You stupid girl! Why the hell would you try to leave the bed when you haven’t even properly healed yet.’ Derrick scolded coming in with a bowl of steaming soup. I don’t know what type of soup it was yet, but the mere aroma of it was making my mouth water reminding me that I haven’t eaten for a few days now. ‘How long was I out?’ I asked instead looking away from the tempting meal that he placed in front of me. I glanced at him. He was wearing denim shorts and blue T-shirts, as he moved his muscles rippled in them. I traced the length of him up. his hair had grown so long they were now covering his forehead and eyes to a point where had to run his fingers in them quite often. He had those square jawlines any man dreamed of and any woman would have wished he were her... I quickly looked away. What am I doing? 'Oh Derrick, thank you for taking me away from the muddy ground I passed out on and taking care of me for the past two days that I was out, you are such a darling and I don’t know how I am going to thank you but to own you my life.’ He said with a hint of sarcasm in his voice. Two days? I was out for two days. Were my injuries that severe? Well, that was a stupid question to ask for I had a lethal amount of wolf’s bane in my system. I nodded slowly at him before trying to sit up. ‘Thank you. I wouldn’t burden you anymore with my problems.’ I made to stand up when he forcefully pushed me back on the bed. ‘Burden? You do more than just that! You make me worried about you every fucking time for the past two years. What the hell is your problem Myla? HUH? Can’t you see that you are no longer wanted in the pack, can’t you see that you are safe only with me? Did you realize that you almost died two days ago? Do you even realize that you are dying as we speak? Do you even know what you look like now? Huh?’ He was shouting at the top of his voice at me. I winced at how painful his words were. Well, he really didn’t need to pour salt into my wounds. I know they don’t want me in the pack but I can’t leave, the pack belonged to my parent, and unlike him, I can’t just walk away from my pack. I’d rather die than reject my pack. I watched as the hatred and anger in his eyes grew into burning flames though I’m not sure the hatred was directed at me but it was obvious that the anger was meant at me. I could literally taste the anger in the air, just like the metallic taste of my own blood pooling into my mouth from the continuous biting of my tongue. He walked out of the room slamming the door behind him so hard I was afraid that it would fall off the hinge. He came back a while later with a full-length mirror. I closed my eyes knowing what he was about to do.‘Look at yourself Myla! You are no longer the beautiful daughter of the beloved Alpha and Luna, rather you are just another unwanted pack member that is yet to be rejected or worse, killed.’ My heart hurt like it was being stabbed a thousand times at how harsh his words were, yet I knew he was telling the truth, no one wanted me. The people I loved were all gone, I’m all alone in this world now. ‘Look at yourself Myla, look at what you’ve become.’ He shouted angrily at me. Taking a deep breath, I sighed helplessly before opening my eyes. To say I look horrible would be an understatement. I look far worse than horrible. My eyes were swollen and red from constant crying and I had huge eye bags under them from lack of sleep, the dark circles were large too. My once beautiful chocolate brown hair was now the unattractive color of mud, looking a little bit down I saw that my clothes were all worn out and had blood stains on them. I lift the once royal blue shirt that had now turned a pa
At first, it shocked me to realize that they would ever think that I would challenge Julian, I had been with them for as long as I have been living and they just simply turned their backs on me just because of a newbie. I shake my head convincing myself that it was pure instinct to protect their Alpha. I wait for my mate knowing fully well that he also recognizes me. What shocked me was that he went straight towards Hailey and smacked his lips on hers. Right in front of me, right in front of the whole pack members! Was he trying to humiliate me? Was he trying to insult me by doing this? I was confused, angry, and jealous at the same time. Why would my mate kiss someone right in front of me? I moved towards him, ripping him apart from Hailey whose whole body was flushed red from embarrassment. ‘What are you doing?’ I asked through the mind link since he had already been connected to the pack. ‘I’m your worst nightmare.’ He said to me a smirk on his face. 'Everyone… meet my mate and
I know Athena wouldn’t let any opportunity of her taking over slide but I know her well enough to know that I have to keep her under control for she was a violent creature. ‘You do know that I can read your thoughts right?’ She spat venomously at me before lying in her favorite spot like nothing happened. I chuckled at her childishness, before bracing myself for the fight that was about to come. ‘Oh! Look who we have here.’ Raymond said. He was the one who saw me first. I continued walking towards the gate with the hope that they let me go, fingers crossed. I froze when I felt someone’s hand on my shoulder. ‘And where do you think you are going to bitch?’ He asked. I distanced myself from him before looking him in the eye, ‘to my room.’ I answered simply. They all laughed trapping me in the middle. ‘Hey guys, why don’t we have some fun before our shift is over.’ I looked at Raymond in disgust, how dear he belittles me like this! I remembered clearly that he and his parent took
As far as I know, no one outside the pack knows about me. My birth had been hidden from the werewolf world, no one knew about me. Could it be that my pack members betrayed me? From what I know, rogues attack my mum on her way to the dark forest pack. And then her body was brought back to our pack several weeks later. I knew this because of the autopsy my dad had insisted the pack doctor conduct on her immediately after she was brought back. The pack had said they found her dead in the river and truth be told her body was all bloated and blue. ‘You look so pathetic.’ The voice of my mate snapped me out of my thoughts. I sat up looking at him as he walked towards my direction with his hands around Hailey’s waist. I watched them as they played the role of the perfect mate in front of me. I just couldn’t understand why he would lie to the entire pack that Hailey was his mate. I mean what would he gain from doing so anyway? If he wanted to become the Alpha of my pack he could have sim
'They said that the late Alpha had no children and that you are just a…em…please forgive me Alpha but they said that you are just a bastard that is taking advantage of this opportunity to rule the pack.’ How come the council knows about the internal matters of the pack? It was not normal for the council to meddle in pack matters except of course it was affecting other packs which was most likely not possible. Everyone knew that the late Alpha of Silver Moon Pack was dead and it was obvious that rumors had been flying around that there was a new Alpha but this was not enough reason for the council members to check up on us. After all, to the outside world, it would look like the pack was not in disarray which was why a new Alpha emerged so quickly after the late Alpha passed. It was only natural for other packs to see it as the silver moon pack trying to protect their pack and keeping it united so that it wouldn’t fall prey to more rogue attacks in the future. Knowing all of this I
TWO MONTHS LATER It’s been exactly two months since I left my home pack, well my escape plan wasn’t a total success for I almost lost my life but still I managed to leave the pack after several severe injuries. Well, I can say that all my suffering was worth it for I got a lead on my mother’s death. It wasn’t rogues that attacked her on her way to the dark forest pack after all. Several rogues had confirmed that they dared not approach the dark forest pack for they had tight security. A rogue would be shot even before he steps feet near the borders. They also said that rogues rarely went near the south region where the dark forest pack happens to be located, well except for those who had a death wish. This left me with two things, either my mum was murdered by someone from the dark forest pack and then they dropped her at the borders near the river, or she was murdered even before she reached the pack bothers and they managed to dump her beside the pack borders. All the clues I
I went ahead with my business ignoring the annoying Alpha. What's wrong with him anyway? I mean, who on earth growls at their saviour? That's his problem not mine. I wiped the blood off my dagger and then turned around to leave only for several more rogues to appear before us.Seriously! Today was a bad day for me. I cracked my neck and pulled up my sleeve, ‘who’s first?’ I asked. No one needed to tell me that this group of rogues was here to fight, it’s just a simple law of “the jungle” as I like to call it. One of them stepped forward his eyes scanning the length of me, well not in a good way.His lustful gaze made me felt disgusted, Only then did I realize that half my shirt was gone.Mister Alpha seemed to have a problem with the way they were looking at me for he growled, the type of growl I was just too familiar with, that of a predator.The rogue with the dirty blond hair stepped forward his look not so different from the rest of his team. ‘Miss it’s not you we're after but
The sound of someone clearing their throat snapped me out of my thoughts, Mister Alpha was leaning on the door frame in all his glory, his jet black hair disheveled making me want to run my hands in them, and his clothing not matching his masculine traits, though I take back the fact that he was an ugly princess for he looked fucking…‘Are you done checking me out?’ I saw his kissable lips move before the words registered in my brain.'Em… I- how are you feeling?’ I asked instead. He tilted his head to the side studying me, his eyes searching my soul.He took long strides towards me his eye searching mine, stopping a few inches away from me. ‘Tell me.’ He whispered his face inches away from mine that even if I moved one bit the unspeakable eh was going to happen between us.I looked into his eyes questioning him as to why he was invading my personal space but he didn’t say a thing. He took a deep breath before snaking his hands around my waist and pulling me impossibly close to him m
