Cilla’s POV

I wanted to leave, but I was not stupid. I knew that I had to take time and plan in order to have a successful exit. Otherwise, it would all end in a bigger mess than the one I’d seen when I tried to escape from Micheal Frey’s pack. I walked along the perimeter wall, touching it occasionally. Every touch sent a surge of hope through my body.

When I reached the part I wasn’t supposed to go beyond without permission, I paused. Looking around, I saw that there was no one in the vicinity. Taking a deep breath, I decided to continue while trying to come up with excuses of why I was there in my mind.

I reached a part where the perimeter wall stopped. My heartbeat skyrocketed as I smelt the taste of freedom. Taking a look around, I tried to step past the boundaries.

“Ahhh!” I screamed as I pulled my leg back. It had started burning immediately it went past the boundary line. I took a few steps back and sat down, then stared at my quickly healing leg. Magic. There was a magic sp

    Cilla’s POVRidian was quiet for a while. I couldn’t look into those sharp magnetic eyes of his anymore so I turned my gaze away. I waited for him to speak because I knew his words would seal my fate. In a way, I was feeling a bit relieved because I had unburdened my soul. Now Ridian knew what was in my heart, and the desire that ruled my mind. And that was to reunite with my siblings. What he would do with the information was going to help me decide whether to continue being his mate or end it all.Suddenly, I felt him getting closer. My heart beat soared almost immediately, pounding hard against my chest. I nearly fell over when I felt his palm on my cheek. It sent chills all over my body and made my knees weak. Looking up, I stared into the eyes of my mate. His eyes had darkened and looked almost glossy. He didn’t waste time staring at me. The moment I felt his lips touch mine, I knew I was done for. There was no point in trying to resist him as it felt like every inch of my body

    Cilla’s POVAfter the meeting with Ridian, I forgot all about my escape plans. When he left me there, I sat down in order to process everything. The four words he had said went deep and meant a lot. I couldn’t help but wonder if he had actually meant what he said. A part of me desperately wanted to believe it. I started to rationalize. It had to be true or he wouldn’t have said it. Why else would he have sex with me if he did not love me? Another part of me was saying he had only done that because of the attraction from the mate bond. He did not have any extra feelings for me and I was grasping at straws. The same kind of thoughts were going on in my mind for over half an hour. When I finally got the strength to stand, I did. I stood up and started moving towards my residence. Since the alpha had already seen me, I had no reason to fear. I was pretty sure one of the members of his security team was aware of what had happened between us. When I got to the quarters, I saw the workmen

    Ridian’s POVBrody and I had never got along very well, and that was because he was very incompetent at times. He was capable of doing a lot of things and was very intelligent, but he was a major procrastinator. He was lazy and spent a lot of time drinking and chasing after women. When he was not doing that, he liked to terrorize those weaker than him for fun. We had had a lot of arguments and fights because of this but it didn’t look like he was about to change.My mother had persuaded me to let him be in charge of accounts and I had reluctantly accepted as long as he worked well with the accounts officer, Leila Olivares who had been the top of her accounting class in the nearest college. Leila was one of the few pack members who had been inclined to education, and had taken the chances offered to her. Now he had gone ahead and harassed her which did not sound good at all. To make matters worse, Leila was threatening to resign and yet I could not see a suitable replacement around. P

    Cilla’s POVI was no longer a slave. That was the best thing that had happened to me in a while. It meant that I was free to do so many things, but the only thing I was interested in was traveling out of the pack once in a while in a bid to find the twins. I didn’t know if that was included in the terms and conditions of my release but I hoped it was. Hope was all I had. For the first time in a while, I felt truly happy. I felt unstoppable. This was proof that Ridian had not lied when he said he loved me. My mate loved me! My heart was swimming in happiness as I moped my room. Since I had not yet been assigned any work, I was free as a bird. I could lie on bed all day if I wanted. It was amazing. It gave me a glimpse of my life before my parents were killed and I was enslaved. Back then, I did not have to wake up with my mind full of duties that needed to be done. Janine had taken over. Thinking of Janine made me drop the mop and go out to see how she was doing. I had to gloat while

Her constant sobbing was beginning to annoy me, but I decided to stay patient. I couldn’t leave without getting the information I wanted. When it became too much, I was forced to speak.“Okay, Jane. Please stop it. You and I both know that we need to talk. I cannot wait any longer. I need to know why you decided to abandon me on our wedding day.”“No, I did not abandon you,” she broke down into fresh sobs. “I was taken away from you. I swear, I did not chose to leave. Why would I leave you when you’re the only man I love?”I sat up straight and faced her. Every inch of me wanted to believe what she was saying. “Look at me, Jane. Tell me what happened when you ‘re looking at me.”“You don’t believe me, do you? I knew it. How could you think the worst of me, Ridian?

    Cilla’s POVA few days after Jane Willow had arrived, I was summoned to the main house by the head of housekeeping Mrs. Conway. Maryanne was more than eager to be the one to deliver the news. Having not seen her in a while, I was shocked to hear her saying she was the one at my door. When she opened the door, she looked around with an air of superiority, acting as if she had never lived in such a room. I knew she was not there to see me as a friend.“Mrs. Conway asked for you,” she said. “You need to get to the house in less than five minutes.”“Good morning to you, too, Maryanne. Remember when we used to be friends?”Maryanne rolled her eyes. “I remember no such thing. We came here together but I don’t remember us getting close.”“Anyway, what does Mrs. Conway want me to do?”“I think you’re going to be Miss Jane Willow’s personal maid.”“What?”“You heard right. Jane willow needs someone at her beck and call, and it seems she asked specifically for you.”I frowned. “Why would she d

What I felt for Ridian on the first day I met him was love.I pretended to be scared of him the first time he spoke to me just to get his attention. It was my way of cementing myself in his mind. Sure, when I arrived in the pack, I was broken and desperate. Deep inside, my spirit remained strong and that was why I was able to bounce back in a very short time. In order to get the attention of that man, I had to be weak. Some men can’t resist damsels in distress and I could tell Ridian was one of them. If he wasn’t, I was going to turn him to one.

    Cilla.One week later, we assembled the whole of Moonshine pack. We had speeches from both sides and the last speech was Ridian’s. When he made the announcement that Sasha Miller would lead the pack, the crowd erupted in cheers. “Please come forward,” Ridian asked Sasha who seemed so shocked by the announcement she couldn’t move for a while. Eventually, she strode forward in a responsible fashion and the crowd roared once me. I scanned the gathering and found alpha Aragon in tears. He seemed to be very happy that his daughter was going to be in charge. “We have been observing this brilliant young woman for a while since she returned and we have decided that she is the best person to replace her father in the leadership of this pack,” Ridian continued. “We shall talk with the elders so we can have a coronation ceremony as soon as possible. Although your new luna will have to report to me, you’ll have more autonomy over yourselves. We believe she’s the best person to steer this pack to

    CillaWaking up next to my lovelies was the best thing ever. I had slept through the morning. I woke up at 11 am and found Rose and Ren still asleep, their heads on each of my arms. My arms were hurting. When I tried to push them away so I could get up, they opened their eyes and tried to snuggle closer. I chuckled before speaking.“My hands hurt,” I said. They both moved away from them and sat up so I could bring my arms together. The action was painful but it was worth it. I had had the best sleep in a while and would do it a hundred times over. Knowing that Jane was dead and couldn’t hurt us was the icing on the cake.“How did you know where we were?” Rose asked.“I’m your big sister. I know everything.”“No, you don’t.” Rose said.“Seriously,” Ren said.I had noticed that Ren was growing faster, developing the snarky attitude of a teenager before his sister. Since I was now a parent, I had to learn patience and find a way of dealing with him without causing more problems.I told t

    Ridian.“Rose! Ren!” Cilla yelled, while running around the forest with tears streaming down her face. I followed her, begging her to stop for a moment but she couldn’t. She continued running further and further from me. When she finally stopped, she dropped to the ground.“I can’t believe we did everything for nothing,” she said. “You were right. We shouldn’t have wasted time going to the prison. Why did I have to think of such a stupid plan? Now, Jane is dead and I’m the one suffering. What kind of stupid revenge is this? I messed up, Ridian. I’m so stupid.”“No, you’re not.” I told her. “We’re going to find them. I’m sure they’ve run off somewhere. Suddenly, I felt something hit me from the back. “Run, Cilla. I’ve been shot.”Cilla Rose and came behind me, pulling out the arrow quickly. We both turned instantly and started running. We ran until we were out of the forest. George and his human friend were also nowhere to be seen. “What is happening?” Cilla asked. When we got into a

  • The Alpha's Enslaved Mate   The attack

    Ridian.The children’s shelter was surrounded by a wall fence which we easily jumped over. The car remained outside the fence while Cilla and I went in, dressed in our ski masks, the driver waiting for our exit. The shelter had an office building and a boarding house where the children and youth resided in. from our online stalking, we had found out that it was one large hall divided in the middle. One side was for very young children and preteens while the other was for older teens. It was amazing how foolish humans were. How do you claim to be protecting children yet give out all the details about where they lived? It didn’t make sense at all.Ross and Ren were twelve, and that meant they were in the teens section. The website had stated that 11 and below were in the younger children section. This made things easy for us since the younger children had matrons sleeping in their side. The side with older teens had no adults. The guard at the gate was easily taken care of. Cilla had k

    Ridian.The city was called Everdeen City. It took us about three hours to get there by car. When we reached, Cilla and I paid for a suite in a hotel while the warriors went to search for the location of the shelter and prison with the help of Google maps. Science and technology was making things really easy. We waited in out room anxiously for more information while watching the television for more updates. As expected, the police did not give out much information about the investigation. That was annoying. I felt like visiting her but I knew it would alert her on what we were planning to do. I wanted it to be a surprise to her. A few hours later, the men arrived and we were also taken to the place. We drove by the shelter and then the prison where Jane was being held as the police searched for information about the children. We decided we would carry out both operations at night. I found it hard to believe that Jane had been arrested by a human policeman and had failed to defend he

  • The Alpha's Enslaved Mate   The news

    Ridian.It had been two days since Cilla started training with Brody and it was not sitting well with me. I knew that she wasn’t going to do anything with him. I think I was more annoyed by the fact that she had opted to ask him to train her and not me. I was so much better than Brody in everything. It hurt me that she opted to ask him, as if she trusted him more than me. I tried to distract myself with other things but it was hard to stop thinking about the fact that they were both training together. When we were together, everything was mechanical. We did almost everything together and even slept on the same bed but we failed to connect like before. Cilla spent most of her attention on her phone and I ended up doing the same. We were like two strangers living in the same house. Cilla was so depressed that I barely knew what to do with her. I tried to help her but she never seemed receptive or interested in fixing the issues that were bothering us.The only good thing happening was

    Jane.Tom was a lanky young man. He was very tall but quite thin. He had a beautiful sweet face and a very nice smile. The first time he smiled at me, I felt my insides warm up. His house was quite messy as it looked like a party of druggies had just ended. The house reeked of smoke and alcohol. It was no place for children but I had nowhere else to take them. While the kids were still unconscious, I quickly tried to clean the house, not for their sake but for mine as well. I didn’t think I’d feel comfortable staying in such a dirty place. If Rody had told me Tom was a mess, I’d have found another place. Tom was watching me as I worked and since I was wearing very short shorts, I decided to give him a good view. I needed him on my side. People are fickle about kids, even bad people. Anyone who wants kids to suffer is a monster that’s beyond saving. There are not many people like that. There was a chance that tom was not like that. I had noted his reaction when he saw me getting them

    RidianWhen Cilla settled into bed next to me, I felt tempted to reach over and pull her close but was somehow able to resist the temptation. I was tired of fixing things. If she wanted the silent treatment, I would give it to her. After all, she was the one who barely showed any happiness after knowing that I was back home. I was beginning to think that she wanted me gone. But hell, that was my pack. There was no way I would abandon it for long. If she didn’t want to see my face, she could leave. I could survive without her, after all.Before she came into the room, I had been about to sleep but now that she was lying right next to me, it was almost impossible to get any sleep, especially since a certain part of my body had decided not to listen to the rational thoughts coming from my mind. It wanted what it wanted and not even my stubbornness was going to stop it. I decided to wait it out since I didn’t want to cave and be the one to make the first move. I was pretty sure Cilla wasn

Having realized that Ridian would not always be there to protect me and the pack, it was time for me to better my skills incase stronger enemies decided to attack us. I was very happy with what I had achieved but knew there was need for me to do more.Kenny tried to punch my arm but I expertly dodged it and punched him in the chest instead. I had realized that he was trying to go easy on me and was trying to …him so he could fight back and we’d have a better training. As much as I tried he never budged so I started thinking of getting a new trainer. “Call Brody,” I told Kenny as I went to sit under a tree and drank some water.
