Another guard took over, since the new guard never knew what was going on between the guard and slaves, he ignored the slaves, as he went to guard the door.
Sharriah was happy when she heard the news of the guard leaving the room, she turned back, staring at the girl behind her, and she decided to form a plan.
"I have a plan Envaline, we can still get sold together."
She said, looking at Envaline to know if she will believe her.
"Never mind, I don't think I need your help with the plan, just be calm when the guard comes back, OK"
She said, looking at her, Envaline's eyes showed curiosity, but Sharriah had a lot of things to do.
She turned towards the girl, who was next to her, she flashed her a smile, she knew her name, as she was also a slave in the establishment for as long as she could remember.
"Hello Margret, can you help me out with something."
She asked, hoping she said a yes.
"Yeah, depends on what you want me to help you with."
Her smile widened at her words.
"You see, I want to get sold together with my friend over there, but the guard disapproved of us, writing our names together, thereby causing us to be separated, from each other, please I need you to write my name as yours, since you are next after her, when it reaches my turn, I will write your name, instead of mine, I promise to do that."
She said, hoping Margret accepts her request, this was their only chance.
"OK I will, what's your full name."
Margret asked, she wondered why she wanna get sold together with her best friend, having friends was not her thing, but she remembered how Sharriah treated the guard in the bathroom and she was pleased with what she did, and she was going to help her if that was what she wants.
"Sharriah Stallion, and yours"
Sharriah asked her.
"Margret Wolvile"
Margret said, looking at her, Sharriah looked at her, holding her hands, she mouthed a thank you to her, looking at Envaline, who had been listening to her, she gave her a wink, before leaving to the end of the line.
As she reached the line, the guard came in, looking at the front line, before looking up at her, he smiled at her, while she frowned back at him, not trying to make him suspect any of her actions, and she prayed silently, in her heart, hoping Margret never failed her, and do as was planned. Her heart made a loud thump, and it made another thump, it felt strange like someone was trying to talk to her, she heard another thump on her heart again, this time, she slipped down on the wall, and squeezed her tiny pieces of that she wore, her heart was as if it was pierced with a thousand needle, and if only she has her wolf with her, it would have reduced the pain she felt at that moments, she didn't know how long she sat on the ground, she was so lost in thoughts, she didn't know when the line reduced and it was her turn to write her name.
A guard screamed at her.
"You useless slave, will you leave this place this instant and go write your name, or you remain here forever."
She stood up immediately, on hearing the voice of the guard, she looked up and she realized it was only some few people that were in the room, she walked towards the guard, who was registering the names of the slaves,
"Whore, I wished you never get sold, so I could make your life worst than you ever encountered in this establishment."
The guard said, snarling at her, she kept mute, ignoring the guards' words, having gotten used to their snickering, taking the pen on the platform, she wrote Margret Wolvile, in replacement to her name, hoping the guard never suspects anything.
"Are you sure that is your name?"
The guard asked her, suspecting her, she looked calm when writing her name, which was not how he expects her to look and this entirely surprised him.
"Yes sir, my name is Margret Wolvile."
She said, her voice not wavering when she pronounced her name.
"Margret, I thought it was something with an...."
The guard said slowly, staring at her, to know her reaction, but she kept an expressionless face,
"You can leave now slave."
He told her, and she left, closing the door behind her, as she left the room.
She walked out, and she saw Envaline who was standing on the pathway waiting for her, she could see Margret was also with her, also waiting for her, she walked towards them, giving them a sad smile.
"Did it work?"
Envaline said, looking at her.
"Yeah, it worked out, well, Margret is the one to complete the task."
She said, staring at Margret who flashed her a smile.
"Did it work, did you write my name as yours?"
She asked Margret,
"You will find out yourself on the auction day."
Margret said, beaming down at her.
"You don't have to do this now."
Sharriah said, her mind not at ease, still not knowing if she wrote her name,
"As I said, you will find out yourself."
Margret said again, beaming at her, she was about to protest, when she heard the voice of the guards, shouting at the slaves.
"The warden has ordered that you all should go have your bath, and a dress had been marked for each and everyone whose name appeared on the list." Envaline beamed at the message.
"Did you hear that a dress for slaves will be wonderful?"
Envaline said, her face showing how much happy she felt on hearing the news.
"Don't be so happy, you don't know how good the clothes looked like, they could be clothes for whores, too exposed for our liking, except for cheap slaves like Veronica, the establishment whore."
Margret said, as they walked towards the bathroom, Sharriah remembered Veronica, Margret and Veronica were never best of friends and truthfully she is the whore in the Establishment, and she was made the slave leadership position in the Establishment, due to her famous act of sleeping with the guards and wardens, and her position grants her some benefits which she made sure she enjoyed to the utmost prime.
"Yeah, you are right"
Envaline said smiling at what she said, which was the awful truth, the Establishment can't give them the best or treat them like queens just because they wanted to be sold, instead, she thought, they will treat them like cheap whores so that they will be appealing to the sight of the buyers, her body shook with fear at her thoughts, but if that was all it takes to leave the Establishment, then she will be willing to do it, the thought of staying in this establishment another day was like a poison to her soul.
6They walked towards the door, that leads to the bath room, they saw the other slaves were there sitting and checking out their dresses, You could hear whispering and murmuring, even though they tried to keep their voice low, they still heard what the slaves said."They look at the dress with contempt and hatred."Sharriah said, looking at the other slaves who were making out signs of scowls and malice."They dont have to be mad for the clothes, they have to bear this hatred to the slave authorities."Envaline said, now walking to a corner where she saw her name written on the desk and she saw some piece of clothing, Margret and Sharriah following after her, when Envaline raised the clothe up, she gasped, it was a piece of clothing which could only cover the breast part of her body, then a cut in between which was joined together to cover the down side of her body, the clothing was totally just covering only her upper layer and down layer of her body."What rubbish, we won't wear thi
7In a big room, decorated with red bloody petals, there were ten seats, each having the sacred sign of human hearts which were molded with steel attached to the chairs, ten elders sat around a throne, which have a serpent heads, this time not moulded, but are alive."What were the recent report you heard from the messengers who was sent as a spy to the Dark Moon pack?"Carson asked, looking at the elders who are also the highest in commands in the vampire pack, they consist of eight male and a female, she is the third in command in the vampire pack."We haven't heard any news yet, but there are news or rumors going around the castle, that the alpha king wants to buy a slave, an alpha king is never interested in slaves, he hates them, and he wants nothing to do with them, and just a week ago, the alpha king made an order to the slave establishment to set up an auction, where the slaves would be sold, which will take place as normal in the black market..."One of the vampires said, bow
8 The day for the auction was finally near, the Slaves were all bonded with shackles and dragged like animals to the auction ground, as they dragged the slaves to the black market, which covered a short distance from the establishment, it is a hundred meter from the establishment to the black market, where the auction would take place. Finally, they reached the auction ground, their feet trembled as they walked towards where they will be kept, before being sold, they saw the warden. The warden walked towards the guards assigned to watch over them. "Blindfold them" He said, walking towards the curtain, which separated them from the Slav buyers. ¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶ "Gather the warriors, there are possibilities that Bethel have heard about the king buying slaves and will bring his men for battle to attack the king." The Beta said, Alexander, the second in command after the alpha king. He was not sure if the vampire king have heard any news about the king buying slaves, but he kn
9 She squeezed her head in pain, raising her head up, she looked back at the stage where she saw the man, who had grey golden eyes, he was no longer there, she looked around, trying to find him, and she realized he was gone...."STOP.......don't you dare lay your filthy fingers on her, or even have the thoughts of tearing her clothes, unless, you consider having your head hanged on a stake..."A voice said, quickly catching Sharriah's attention, Sharriah turned to the stage where Envaline stood, ready to have her clothes ripped apart.She watched as a the man whose voice she had heard looked raged over......Envaline.The Warden was totally scared, his hands which was supposed to be on Envaline's body was deposited by his side, humbly folded together and looking scared like a mouse, she had never seen the warden gotten scared before, as he was always wicked and awful to the slaves and these act of his surprised her and strange enough the crowds was quiet, they were not against the de
10 "Her bid will start from two hundred gold coins"Surprisingly, the audience were bidding on her quite well, and it made her winced, they wanted to have a taste of a ferocious slave, "Fifteen thousand gold coins"The man with grey eyes finally said, the whole atmosphere became quiet at once, everyone shot down at his words, no one was gonna bid higher than that, these amount was so high to even buy a slave with, "Twenty thousand gold coins".Another voice boomed in the crowd, the crowd paved way for the new bidder as he walked to the audition ground, as he came forward, Sharriah got a bad feeling from him, his aura emits darkness. And he was darkness indeed.The first man growled at disapproval over the arrival of the first man, it seemed like they were on a battle, internally, with themselves, "Twenty three thousand golf coins" The first man said, and these attracted a lot of noise from the crowd, "Thirty thousand gold coins" The second man said, his teeth bringing out can
11 The vampires camped in their tents, a five hundred meters away from the black market...."Bring me the slave girl here…..". The vampire king said, having loosing the bid to Aiden, it brought a big shame to him, so he decided to buy a slave to cover up his loss, but that slave girl, she is...... His thought was caught short by the voice of a guard."Here she is King"The guard said, pushing the slave girl so roughly, that she fell heavily on the ground, falling at the feet of the vampires."You can leave now…."Bethel said, staring at the slave who had her face on the ground. The guard left the room, leaving him alone with the slave, Bethel felt her fear, and that thought made him reel in happiness, he loves putting fear on people, especially humans, this one never smelt as any creature, but there is one scent in her, he could not grasp, it seems so anonymous."Sweetheart, raise your head up, so your master can see your face…."He said, the taste of calling her that endearment m
12As she stepped back, she heard a growl, which signified that she should stop moving back, away from him, taking all courage in her, she raised her head up in fear, taking every boldness in her. As she looked at the grey golden eyes, looking at her, surprisingly, she was calmed by his eyes,"My name is Sharriah Stallion"She said, looking at him in his eyes, not yet used to staring eye balls to eye balls with her master,"When did you join the slave establishment, were you sold or were you kidnapped, tell me, do not skip any part, if you do that, you will be punished intensely"He said, even though he sounded not too violent, but she knew there were other meaning to the word "punished" when he said he was gonna punish her,"I had been leaving in the establishment eight years ago"She said, remembering how the establishment changed her identity for good,"The sultans came destroying my village, they attacked my people and they kidnapped the children, then I was just twelve years of a
Chapter 13"Yes you can, but make sure to be back in one minute, you don't want the alpha searching for you."Fanny said, giving her a stern face."OK ma'am"Sharriah said, her voice not quivering, to avoid been suspected.As she left the tent, she saw two guards stationed not too far away from the tent, then she saw the alpha's tent, she did not know where her friend must have been kept, she walked slowly, avoiding making any sound that will attract the guards, as she walked, her leg mistakenly matched on some pieces of dry leave, the noise attracted the attention of one of the guard, who was not too far away from where she stood, the guard turned around, searching for who was trespassing the tent by this time of the night."Who is that?"The guard yelled, she stopped moving at his words, holding her breath, her eyes met a rat, which was not to far away from her leg, trying to munch the edible part of her leg, she picked it up and then throwing it towards where the dry grasses are, t
Sharriah woke up with a heavy water been poured on her, she couldn't pinpoint what the issue was, and where she was.All of a sudden she heard a voice coming out from the room which she was in.Slowly, she opened her eyes, her eyes made contact with a woman's, the woman have a red eyes with a devilish glint on her face."You have been asleep for the past 2 days, seems the drugs have taken a toll on you."The woman said, quickly staring at her. Sharriah looked below her hands. She saw that she have been tied with silver, a potential poison to weaken her wolf. 'Had they discovered what she was?"She taught, she hoped not."Well our plans worked, you see, the curse of the evil waters descending on the human's land were part of the plans to eliminate you. Humans were just getting collateral damage, I didn't wished for them to be part of the victims but one way or the other they got to because I wanted to get to you, kidnap you then torture you. Now your mate, Aiden, my enemy is going ins
Alexander quickly opened the door with full force with Philip strolling behind him.“What is the problem, why are you both barging onto my room as if you have been pursued by someone?”Aiden said quickly covering Sharriah who still had her eyes closed.“There is a quick problem alpha.”Alexander said as he beckoned on the king to come over.“There is a report roaming around that the human lands have been infested with a curse.”Alexander said, Aiden turned to stare at Philip because he was yet to understand what they were saying as Curse, there have always be a curse in the land, so what other curse are thy referring to.“What do you mean by curse?”Aiden said, as he quickly summoned them to step out from the room, she had stressed out his mate the previous night and he needs to give her time to relax and not be disturbed by his duties.When they stepped out from the room Alexander began.“The human land started witnessing that their waters have been changing to blood and not just th
Sharriah was shocked at his words, perhaps Alexander was pulling her feet."What do you mean my mother is standing right in this castle?"Sharriah asked as she was still shaken in surprise."Yes, perhaps you should go see for yourself."Alexander said, without asking any further questions, Sharriah ran out from the room, all she could think of was a woman who have the same replica of her, someone whom she had not met for many years.As she dashed out, a familiar scent smashed through her nose, she froze, that scent..... How would she forget this scent, her mother's scent haven't changed even for once.Quickly she followed the directions where the scent was coming off from, and just immediately as she came out from the hall, two guards made way for her and she saw a woman, a familiar woman standing right in front of her, she wore a long gown which have a dull color.The moment Sharriah made contact with her, her breath hitched for a moment."Sharriah....Sharriah."She heard the familia
It have been four days since they had returned from the land of the land of the dragons.Sharriah couldn't stop smiling at the event that took place in the dragon's land, who could have forgotten how Nicholas had stared at her in shock, how he could not concentrate on his bride the moment he laid his eyes on him, he must have been shocked to see the female whom he had always desired and wishes to claim step into the party with one of the most best attire which have been given to her by the dragon King and not just that, but also been the King's mate, this was the biggest shocker and never for once had her mate noticed what was going on."You have been smiling alone ever since we had returned from the dragon's party, is there something you wish to let me know."Aiden said, slowly wrapping his hands around her waist and she felt her body shuddered at his touch. But then, she never knew she have been smiling all this while."Was it quite evident?"Sharriah asked, slowly turning around wh
"And here she is, the Luna to the werewolf pack."Sharriah smiled at the dragon king's words, she had imagined the dragon king to be brutal, filled with anger and evil, she wasn't expecting him to be so kind and sweet towards her, but something else captured her heart.It was her mate, the alpha to the werewolf pack, he looked ravishing in the coat that he wore, his shirt hung tightly on his body thus bringing out the outlines of his body. He looked model, sexy and graceful, if not for the fact a maid held unto her hands, she must have tripped and fell off from his intense stare which he gave her."You look ravishing my queen, I feel like bending you over and making you scream out my name as I pound you so deeply."Sharriah heard his voice on her head, his words made a gasp to escape from her lips, she had almost forgotten, ever since they mated, they could feel and communicate to each other and Aiden was using his in a perverted way."Were you thinking about my words, if you really w
Who would forget the east gate, a place where she was captured and thrown to jail because she did not produce her permit.Now seeing the same guards bow down to her as she walked past them caused a tingle of happiness to pass through her."Alpha Aiden, I was thinking if you had changed your mind regarding this wedding party."Sharriah heard a voice said, slowly turning to face the voice, she saw a man with a long red royal robe and a crown rested upon his head, it wasn't hard to decipher that he was the dragon king, Sharriah felt a shudder ran through her, the man spoke with authority and grace."And who is the beautiful princess we have here."The dragon king said, now focusing his attention on her.Slowly Sharriah bowed down a little to honor him, it wasn't what she was forced to do, giving him honor was what she should do."King Dracula, how can I miss such a big occasion, your son Nicholas is quite a young man who have turn out to be my friend."Aiden said,"And also this is my m
The Gashadrukos all bowed down on their knees as they spoke in their traditional tongue, a tongue which only Sharriah could understand.Sharriah was stunned to see and hear the Gashadrukos pronounced Aiden as their King.Crazy things are happening so quickly, unexpected things which no one would believe will happen to anyone.Aiden slowly turned his gaze at Sharriah, he was utterly confused by their actions.Sharriah knew the questions that was bubbling through his mind."They declared you king, you passed the test."Sharriah said, she was utterly confused what the test was in the first place."What test?"Aiden asked the Gashadrukos who still bowed down to him as they whispered in their strange dialect.Sharriah listened to their words as she smiled slowly."You challenged them, the first ever living creature to do such and because you have done so, you are deemed to be their king and forever they owe you their life, also it do fit you to be their King moreover I am the queen."Sharr
Passing through routes and corners, the journey to the land of the dragons was taking about three hours, this time, she wasn't placed in the worst carriage meant for guards, instead she was made to sit with the king in the carriage meant for the king.The journey have been quiet, boring and slow, all she could do was bundle herself with the king, but suddenly the carriage came to a halt.Sharriah looked up, she wondered what came up, had they arrived already to the dragon land."What is the issue alpha Aiden?"Sharriah asked watching as his face contoured into a serious expression."They won't let us pass through."Aiden said, watching as she stared at him with confusion laced on her face."I do not understand Aiden?"Sharriah questioned, they haven't stepped out from the carriage yet."The creatures with skeletons and bones."Aiden said, Sharriah's eyes widened with shock, the Gashadrukos, they were the ones that stopped the carriage."Oh my god!"Sharriah said and quickly without gi
Sharriah opened her eyes slowly and the first thing she saw was the reflection of the sun light which almost gave her a seizure.But quickly the window was closed, it was as if who so ever was in the room knew her thoughts.Slowly opening her eyes as her eyes adjusted to the light which illuminated from the room, the first person she saw was a maid, dressed in short gown and apron which covered her entire front clothing."Good morning queen Sharriah, we have been ordered to dress you up for a visit to the dragon land."The maid said bowing down.Sharriah was stunned at her words, why was she going to the dragon land and why is she been referred as queen."Dragon land?"Sharriah asked, as she looked towards the other end of the bed, the bed was empty, Aiden must have woken up quite early.Slowly a little blush appeared on her cheek when she remembered what had happened the previous night."Yes the dragon land my queen, you are to attend the dragon party which is to take place today, ev
