Damien instantly twitched when he heard Miss Scarlett's punishment. Having me starved bothered him but making me eat my doctor's liver didn't. "That isn't enough , she should be executed", Harriet barked outraged. "GET OUT OF MY OFFICE RIGHT NOW", Damien commanded dryly. He looked like his patience was running low. Her eyes widened as if she couldn't believe it.He glared at her and silently she bowed her head then walked to the door slowly. She was so ashamed. "You rather take punishment that isn't yours than telling the truth, are you trying to madden me",l turned my glare at him when l heard him say that. "You shockingly have the audicity to say that even after killing Dr Tracy",l spoke each word with coldness evident in my voice.Now Miss Scarlett was the one getting aggravated with the tone l was using to her Alpha. She shifted her weight to another leg and pursed her lips. "If you say the truth , she will be devoided of her title", Damien reassured. "Am gonna serve my punishment
"You up", She only threw a glance in my way. "We were assigned to clean the lake house for the next few days, it's a few hours from here so you have the all room to yourself", She continued as she made her way to the door. "Take me with you", l sat up on the bed instantly. "Yeah right but am not the one who made those decisions",She responded."Please", l got up. "Hey you wanna plead with someone, try Miss Scarlett",she grabbed the doorknob. " I can't take you myself", She took the door and l closed it behind her. With her gone , I wore the slave shirt then walked out of the room. I made my way to the stables. For some reason not many people came out here.Even the slaves's duties were centered towards the main house and gardens. I walked quickly and got inside the back. I got inside the lady empty stall to my right and sat down on the hay. For the first time l was scared , l was scared of those human slaves. I felt defeated. One of them told me that it wasn't over and I didn't want
"Be careful, anyone might see you", l turned and stared at Rhea. "I think they are asleep", l responded before opening the door and walked out. Silently with a piece of soap in my hand, I walked to the area that had the tallest bushes. There were ducks and swans in the distance just like Rhea told me but nothing was stopping me. Ever since I was ordered to live with slaves, l wasn't only starved but bathing was also a problem. I did stink and the situation was now unbearable. The water was surprisingly clear , no mud , no frogs. I took off my dress that was stiff from last time's vomit in and dived in. It was so cold and refreshing. I felt my life come back. I really needed this and l wanted to swim.I sank deeper into the water then later leaned towards the edge of the pond. I let my head fall back and I closed my eyes. "When will l see Dr Tracy, should I ask him to show me her dead body",l spent so much time day dreaming in the water. I didn't want to go anywhere else, it felt goo
ZOEY'S POV"You not weaseling your way out of work today", Just as l was making my way out of the pond, already dressed up , one of the shewolves made her way to me. Before l could say anything, she grabbed my elbow and shoved me inside the kitchen. "We will talk about you skipping work later", She hissed out after pushing me inside the kitchen. "Am not allowed in here", l informed her. " Whatever it is, you serving with us, we are short stuffed", She ordered before she pushed me more. I walked inside and found my fellow slaves who had gloomy looks. They were so hungry and so irritated at me. I simply took a tray of food and followed behind them. I was so astonished at how professional they still stayed. None of them did anything to me in front of the shewolf. But then as soon as it was only us in the hallway, one of them shoulder pushed me out of her way to the other side.I instantly bumped into the wall. I couldn't shield myself because my hands were holding unto a big tray so m
I stretched on the bed with a loud yawn and tried to get my bearings. "Hell yeah", I stretched out my neck to look out at the window. After eating my breakfast , l fall asleep but now it was dark already midnight. Rubbing my eyes , l flapped my body on the bed. Smothering another yawn , l got comfortable on the bed again.With my eyes opened ,l listened to the forest outside. Everything was cool but my inner part wasn't. After everything I heard Damien's sister say, it all proved that I will never get a chance to go back to the human world. They all had their eyes on me, calling me the breeder."Urggh", Thinking about it all, l lost interest in everything, l closed my eyes again and let those soothing sounds calm me. l now wanted to go back to sleep. However just as l had pushed the thoughts at the back of my head , something all of the sudden dropped down on the floor next to my bed the thing which made me to instantly sit up.Without wasting any second , l switched on the lights as
I woke up with the sunlight pouring out in the entire room , warming my bed and me. Memories flowing back in my head , l wiggled a little and bolted up from the bed. A bit frightened , I looked at my sorroundings , l looked some more but there was nothing bizarre than the overly tousled bedsheets. The beast was no where to be seen.Slowly I took my shaking fingers to my neck. Other than it being tender , l didn't know whether there was a hole on my skin. After yesterday's situation , l was totally terrified. Quickly , I ran to the bathroom and looked at myself in the mirror. As soon as I had look at neck, l bit my lower lip which was tingling.There was a giant mark. Slowly l touched the ghastly bruising bite. Touching it , made all the thoughts to flow in my mind. Everything was erotic at first but after seeing his face , I screamed and thrashed but then he immediately grabbed my mouth with his hand then pulled me into his chest until when l stopped screaming. I slept all scared.Tho
ZOEY'S POV Cold air enveloped my body as I ran as fast as possible. As soon as I realized that they were on guards on the patio doors of Damien, l ran out without wasting any time. It was morning and most of the guards might be in the hall having their breakfast. Heaving loudly, l ran through the forest with my heart pounding quickly in my chest.I inwardly knew it that they might find me, l sometimes looked back to see whether some wolves were running after me. Luckily no one was after me and this encouraged me to go faster. However just as l running, l all of the sudden fall onto the sharp pointed branch of tree. "My goodness...",l bit my tongue as I pulled it from my leg.It was so painful but l had my mind made up. There was no going back this time. With blood was running down my sides, l continued to limp slowly towards to the forest where the trees weren't so many."Oh come on kitten you have trespassed", Just as I had sat down under the tree , l heard a voice behind me. "P.. p
DAMIEN'S POV.I sat in silence in the pack library. What my beta told me made me both frightened and annoyed. Silently fuming, I scoured the pages of the old books. There had to be something that described what my beta saw while saving Zoey. He told me that it was something about frenzied red eyed rogues. The shameless rogue who attacked Zoey. After looking for almost two hours , my wolf and l groaned out in anger. Some pages seemed to be missing. "Urghhh", l let out as l threw the book down. These old books were always in my bookshelves with everything but now some pages were missing. "Eric", l growled angrily at one of my guards. "Yes Alpha", He entered in my office quickly. "Bring me all the beautiful and strong shewolves", l ordered while closing another book. There was still no clue of what I was searching for. "Yes Alpha", He answered. With him gone, l went on with searching through all the books. After a good couple of minutes, he lastly came back."Here are they alpha", He m
"No, no, no", Vandeer began shrieking and in front of my eyes, I saw her begin to rapidly age. Her skin wrinkled and her hair turned white before falling from her scalp. "Ahh!", She shrieked once more and black smoke poured from her mouth and shot out in my direction. The power of gods responded quickly and more of the blinding white fire spewed from my mouth.Black met white in the air and a Sonic boom sounded over the island as the two magical forces clashed. That blinding light flowing from the gods through me and against the necromancer was blinding hot. Even my vision blurred as this force left my mouth. It got hotter and stronger.The core of the light began turning a pale blue, showing that it was increasing in heat. Blue flames always are hotter than white and that pale blue was leaving my body and blasting against the darkness. Vandeer's shadows were stripped away and the blue flames devoured her aging body.It blasted through her and into the ground, pulverizing her aging sk
I held my breath as l watched Damien continue to race in the necromancer's direction, mindingless about the weapon the wicked necromancer had. When the dagger was in reach, Damien flung out his hand and slapped the danger away from her. Vandeer's face curled into a disgusting snarl but quickly Damien wrapped up his hands around her throat.One of her hands went to his wrists as he strangled her. Just as l watched, l realized late that her free hand was making unfamiliar signs. With a flick of her wrist, the smoke dagger that was flying away jerked to a halt and rerouted in the air until it was flying back in their direction."No", The scream left my lips too late.The dagger rocketed through the air with a sickening thud and lodged itself in Damien's back.Damien's body went still. His hands loosened from around Vandeer's throat and in that moment, a wide grin spread across her lips, peeling her lips back to reveal her grotesque teeth. I watched as Damien stumbled back from her with t
"Zoey l hate begging but if you need me to get down on my knees and plead with you to go then l will do it. I won't be able to focus on what is coming with you here", Damien's voice pulled me out of my reverie."But it's you who said that am your mate and as a Luna l should always be on your side. Why can't I stay with you right now?, ... I don't want to leave you, l know how weak the wolfsbane made you become", My voice cracked at the end and tears threatened to spill as l rested my head on Damien's chest, gripping him tighter as if he was my lifetime."You right Zoey. I know but am sorry. I don't want to put my babies lives in danger", His hands cradled my face and his thumb wiped away a stray tear on my cheek before lowering to trace my bottom chapped lip. "There's nothing to forgive", I stood on the tips to kiss him gently but he pushed our lips harder together in a passionate kiss that took my breath away."There are boats on the shore . For now l just want you to get away from t
Damien was here but his clothing was torn in some places from the crash but overall, he seemed perfectly alright and my heart soared. Heat coursed through my core at the sight of the absolute rage and fury etched across his face. His power and dominance radiated around him and the sight of his murderous intent directed at his evil brother made me want to fall in his arms.Damien was here. He had come for me , for us. My hand hovered over my stomach and in that moment some of the power of ice drifted away. That was enough for my head to clear of the powerful magic consuming my body and soul. The other half of my soul was here and just the sight of him slowly returned me to warmth.To light and love.He walked with determination in each stride as he trudged through the ice and snow in his path. Damien's strength in the face of magic powered storm was awe-inspiring and desire momentarily clouded my mind. He had a look of shock on his face. I had a feeling that he didn't believe that it w
My skin was crawling as the necromancer spoke of the past and the insanity that led to this situation. "My visions led me to you. After the bastards winning the war, those foolish Werewolves cast me aside. Even though they did that to me, l didn't stop helping them. I still had a thought that one of my best strong witches will be mated to one the feared Alphas but still the moon goddess chose you", This time she spat on the ground in front of me."You don't even know how to use magic, you're pathetic, you would have been dead but this sick bast....","Hey it's your fault, l tried my level best to get her out of the country", Brian pointed a shaking finger at Vandeer with a low growl. "Whatever. She is still alive", Vandeer waved off Brian's anger as she put the blame of their previously failed plan on him. "Missed opportunities lead to new ones, let's forget the past", The necromancer shrugged and crossed her arms before looking in my way again."Damien killed my mate and l won't hesi
ZOEY'S POV.We both turned out gaze to the door as it suddenly groaned under the weight of itself as someone pushed it open. "That will be her now", Brian stood from where he was hunched in front of me then went to greet the woman entering in the cell room. A slender woman with straight inky black hair swept into the room as if she moved with air.She adorned her body with a floor length black dress that cascaded around her legs. My eyes traveled up to the leather harness around her chest that resembled the shape of a pentagram and emphasized her breasts. She covered herself in several pieces of jewelry that varied with different colored stones and minerals that held each their own magical glow.I looked up at her face, thinking that she was perhaps beautiful just like the outfit she had dressed up but hell no l was wrong. She was hardly more than a skeleton clinging to it's translucent flesh.But her eyes were the worst. There was no white in her eyes, only darkness like a swirling p
ZOEY'S POV."What do you want from me?", My voice left me almost inaudible as l questioned Brian. It was now three days ever since he captured me. My last conversation with him left me annoyed and l cursed as he walked out of my cell. Throughout the days, I was fed like a prisoner and l didn't hear anything from Zara, whenever I asked Brian he only laughed.I knew it in my heart that wherever Zara was, she was fighting hard to escape and look for me."What do you want from me Brian?, Why did you abduct me?", I asked again. This time he narrowed his eyes and that darkness inside of him made me fearful of the answer. "I thought you know it already", He hissed it in my face."I just your powers","My powers?", My eyes narrowed at him and I shook my head in disbelief. He abducted me all because he wanted the powers their moon goddess gave me. "Magic is really wonderful, didn't you feel happy when you realized that you the only Luna who was blessed with healing powers?", He asked."No", l
DAMIEN'S POV."Zoey has been taken away, let me go look for her"Zara's words echoed again in my head as l regained my conscience. As expected l was still in the cold cell. Those are the only words that kept sounding in my head ever since l was attacked - together with the Alphas of the different packs.Getting captured was something I was still finding unbelievable but the reality of damp cell fliters kept reminding me that, I was in the cell that had thick doors with wolfsbane on them. The hunters attacked us mysteriously, they didn't give us a chance to fight and currently both my wrists and ankles were chained up to the cement wall behind my back just like the others.The constant injections of wolfsbane and silver were keeping me weak and unable to break the metal chains that had trapped me for a week. Ever since we were captured, every day scientists come in and draw blood. They were experimenting on us. They captured all supernatural creatures.I didn't understand my role in he
Getting out of the building was successful for a while however just as we were turning around the corner, a gloved hand all of the sudden clamped hard on my upper arm and squeezed tight. I turned to Zara's direction but she was also being caught. She tried to scream but a gloved hand clamped around her mouth just like me.The gloves smelled like dirty leather. Oh! God, l was again abducted. This was heart breaking, l was just from fighting for my life and here l was again abducted.That wasn't enough before we could react, I watched with my blurry eyes as they jammed the needles into our necks. My last thoughts were that whatever was jammed in my neck didn't hurt my babies. Many people were after my babies. Miscarriages and being abducted was all l was fated to.***There was no way in hell l could tell how much time had passed when the fog cleared from my brain. My head was pounding as if a thousand horses were galloping through it and my throat was dry as if I hadn't had a drink in
