Chapter 48

Leila's pov

I huddled in the corner, my back pressed against the cold, unforgiving concrete with my eyes squeezed shut. The air was thick with the silence of fear, punctuated only by the rhythmic thump of my own heart.

I had no idea just how long I had been here. Time was a cruel illusion, a fractured mirror reflecting my broken spirit. My mind, once a vibrant tapestry of dreams and aspirations, was now a desolate wasteland, choked by the weeds of despair. Memories, once comforting, now stabbed at me like shards of glass. The betrayal, the deception, the hollow promises once made whispered in the dark.

The image of his face, contorted in a cruel smile, flashed before my eyes. His words, laced with venom and deceit, echoed in her ears. "You will be nothing without me," he had said, his eyes cold and calculating. "you're a pathetic little thing, trapped in a cage of your own making. You don't even have a good wolf to communicate with. Poor thing."

He had built the cage, brick

    Chapter 49Leila's povHours passed and soon, it was the next day. I woke up that morning feeling not just oppressed but completely nervous. The morning hours of the next day kept going and I kept languishing in my cage, my hope dwindling with each passing hour.Later in the afternoon, as I paced the confines of my cell, a commotion arose from outside. Heavy footsteps echoed through the corridors, followed by the clang of metal and the rattling of keys. My heart leaped into my throat as the door to my cage creaked open.Surprised, I paused to look at who it was only to see a presence. It was rough and scary. My heart started to beat and I couldn't help but pause my mind and take a deep breath.Striding into my presence was a man of imposing stature, his eyes blazing with a piercing intensity. His rugged features were marred by a sinister smirk, and his demeanor exuded an aura of cold calculation. My instincts told me that this was no ordinary he wolf. he was a rogue, a dangerous menac

    Chapter 50Leila's povThe echo of the guards' footsteps faded into the distance, leaving me alone with the chilling words that had sent shivers down my spine."He's a monster," whispered a voice that came from the new girl's cage. "A heartless tyrant who revels in suffering." she continued.I turned my head, my eyes wide with fear as I looked at the young and tender-looking woman who was looking hungry and haggard, it seemed she wasn't taken that day but was brought that same day. She lay huddled in the corner of the cage as she looked in my direction. In her eyes were the hope of being able to speak to me. "I am sass," she breathed. "You're still alive here. Well, that was just unexpected considering how mean these rogues are." Sass nodded, her voice barely a whisper as she continued. "well I guess that's just for now. But he may come for me soon enough. Like he came for others."My mind raced. I had heard rumors of the rogue who held us captive, but nothing could have prepared me f

    Chapter 51Amelia's povWith all the bitterness in my heart, I slammed my fist against the cage, the echo bouncing off the stone walls of the abandoned mine shaft. My knuckles throbbed from it, a dull ache that mirrored the burning rage in my chest. The air was thick with the smell of damp earth and decay, a stench that mirrored the putrid emotions swirling within her.I couldn't believe what I just heard as I wondered why I was getting to hear that just now since it happened.This wasn't the life I envisioned for myself. I wasn't ready to have to face the world all on my own and being forced to watch my mother wither away in a freaking red den. I felt my vibrant spirit now being reduced to a hollow echo. It was all because of her. I thought as I glared at the girl in the cage. Leila! She was my stepsister. Every was because of her.I wondered what was so special about her that my mother was being traded for. I remembered hearing the news. It felt as though life shattered. My plans!

    Chapter 52Amelia's povAs I paced before the rusted bars, my eyes glinted with cruel amusement. "Well, well, little mouse, you are still so bold despite being in here right?"She stopped, her voice quivering with a mixture of fear and defiance. In her eyes was curiosity as she wondered what unwanted to do next."Leave me alone, Amelia. You have no right to keep me locked up like an animal. I didn't do anything wrong to you."Her words ignited a flicker of rage in me so I lunged forward, my sharp claws scraping against the bars. "Silence, you wretched thing! You may be my stepsister, but you are nothing more than a hindrance to me."Desperation gnawed at Leila's heart. "how Amelia? Why do you do this to me?" she pleaded.I laughed, my laughter echoing through the clearing. The chilling sound sent shivers down Leila's spine. "Because, my dear sister, I need you. Your existence serves a purpose. a purpose that will ultimately lead to my triumph." I told her cheekily Confusion clouded L

    Chapter 53Leila's povApproaching cautiously, I peered through the bars and gasped. Standing before me was not just my stepsister, Sophia, but one of my enemies. One I never asked for. She had strikingly similar features, but a gaze that held no familiarity. A surge of confusion washed over me, followed by a sense of unease that gnawed within my soul.Memories came flooding back in disjointed fragments. My father's unwavering adoration for Amelia, his warm smile always replaced with cold indifference when it came to me. The thought of it struck her like a bolt from the blue as I gazed at Amelia deeply.I was very curious and needed answers to all my questions. "I just asked you a question. Please answer me. Amelia, how are you related to the rogue? Why are you here? How Amelia?" I asked the young girl like me who was staring like looks could kill.She turned to look into my eyes, smirking as she scanned me up to down. "you know you are just a puppet. A fool you know nothing just lik

Bitch!" she said and spat in my face.That meant Sonia who happened to be my step mom never loved my father like she had claimed and had even cheated on him thereby birthing Amelia.Within the confines of my iron-barred cage, I shivered as the chill air seeped through the cracks, amplifying my pain and misery. My wounds from my step-sister throbbed, a constant reminder of the cruelty I had received. The memories of my stepmother's betrayal and the loss of my home haunted me every freaking moment.As I then laid huddled on the cold floor, listening to the taunts and jeers of Amelia, one voice echoed through the darkness, a venomous whisper that sent shivers down my spine. It was my stepmom, Sonia, the treacherous woman who had betrayed my father."You think you're better than us, don't you?" Amelia hissed. "You think you're above us, just because your father was a powerful werewolf."My heart skipped a beat

    Chapter 55Antonio's povAs the crimson rays of dawn pierced through the canopy, casting an ethereal glow upon the ancient forest, I emerged from my slumber, my senses heightened and my body still trembling with the remnants of the night's debauchery. As always, my day began with the same ritual. The predatory dance with multiple willing she-wolves, each eager to earn my fleeting attention.Yet, despite the allure and the intoxicating scent of their submission, I harbored no shred of compassion or respect for these women who had given themselves to me. To me, they were mere objects, vessels for my pleasure, to be discarded and forgotten as soon as his primal needs were met.With a cruel twist of my lips, I summoned the first of my conquests, a young she-wolf named Anne. Her eyes sparkled with hope and adoration, believing that she had found favor in my sight. But as our bodies intertwined, my demeanor changed. My caresses became rough and forceful, my whispered compliments transformed

She looked so terrified by my actions that she wanted to leave the room but didn't have an ounce of strength to see her through the door. After some minutes, I was my full self again and when I turned and saw her lying close to me, I felt very disgusted. "You piece of shit. What are you still doing here?" I said to her and she turned to see me glaring daggers at her. If looks could kill, she knew she would be dead by now.Standing up, she staggered her way out but she wasn't can't enough which irritated me some took a stool that was close to my bed and threw it at her with anger, causing her to run out in fear.Laughing, I laud back as I then looked down at my third leg in admiration.

She made me kneel before the altar and then she started performing rituals over me. A few minutes later, I saw smoke coming out from the altar all at once and we had to wait for it to land. I watched it hover around the air and finally settled on me, filling me up.I shivered within and didn't know when I went unconscious.I soon opened my eyes only to see Alpha Xander staring at me. I then sat up and saw that I was being laid."you are awake," Damian said happily and quickly hugged me. Alpha Xander looked very excited. He was still seated on the wheels provided for him.I stood up and looked around my body. I felt stronger. It was weird at first as I jumped around. The energy in me was top-notch. It was only me, Damian, and Alpha Xander that were there. I think the rest chose

I wasn't willing to sacrifice my daughter in the midst of all these and it felt as though I was losing it already. I didn't know what I was thinking anymore. "what's wrong? Have they been able to find her?" Sonia asked me from behind and I felt my anger rising."What did the chiefs' guards mean by they met the warriors I sent out dead? That's impossible. I will kill them all." I growled in anger and ordered my guards to go gather all the chiefs I had trusted along with the guards. These chiefs helped me get on the throne. There were other chiefs who didn't succumb to me but I had no idea where they were. They left the pack long before I came so I was going to kill the rest for failing in their j

I won't sit and watch my love life go down the drain. I loved Damian and never thought of playing with him.I made my way out of the forest and ran back to the black pool pack, keeping in mind that my father was ruling there at the moment. When I got to the gate of the palace, I paused there for a while before going in.The guards were very surprised to see me but I didn't care as it wasn't the point.It was a bright new day but I didn't think so as I walked in, looking very pissed at my existence. "where are my parents." I asked the gate at the main door of the building.He then took me in and I walked into the dining to see my parents eating breakfast when my world was shattering. "someone explain what is happening here."They looked up and were very surprised to see me. "what are you doing here Amelia?" my father asked."Oh, my child. I

I would rather he prove to the people that he can protect them and solidify his position than this he was doing. He just killed a member and now the whole pack is in mourning. I didn't think he was right in this. We should only go after anyone who threatens our position and not innocent pack members. I turned and walked into the building after him, chasing after him."make me understand the reason for that Antonio. Do you realize you just killed someone?" I queried.He turned and faced me in the bedroom looking really scared. "Sonia I expect you to follow my lead and not ask me stupid questions. Do you realize what will happen if those two get their hands on any power and come after us again?"What the hell was he even talking about? "this is not even the point. You murdered someone you were obligated to protect. This nev

Arrrrgghhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!I could not control my anger anymore as my warriors matched out of the black pool pack to find Damian and Leila. I was then wondering how long they had gone missing for as I knelt on the floor at the from of the palace building. On remembering Dennis, I decided to check him out but no matter how much I searched around, he was nowhere to be found. "Where is Dennis? He was here a few minutes ago." I asked one of the guards I had right there."he left long ago. Not too long from when he came." the guard responded and I got very pissed. How could he leave again without saying goodbye?My mind was messed up and I really needed someone to talk to."you are walking around like you have mental issues," Sonia said to me, fueling my anger. "why are you doing this to me? Why are you doing this to me answer me?"I screamed at her.My anger was over the roof.

    Chapter 198Leila's povAntonio was a very desperate and greedy man. We had to listen to every single thing Damian had to say and though I was still angry at him deep within me, I still think it wasn't entirely his fault.Why hurt your fellow werewolf for revenge? It just doesn't add up to me at all.Damian was still with me and the alpha. He unexpectedly went down on his knees to beg me for forgiveness. "I want you to forgive me, Lily. I know you may never want to get back into a romantic relationship with me and I'm not expecting you to or feeling entitled to it. I just want you to forgive me. I was wrong. I admit it. I should have alerted you and if I knew my sister would have died, I would have risked my life so I wouldn't have to live to witness her absence. Please don't take me back but forgive me for all the pain and disappointment I have cost you."I didn't expect this apology but either way, it brought tears to my eyes and I had to cry it out. Yes I loved him and I wasn't jok

Two others then joined them, and all of a sudden they were three.I shifted back a little. I was disappointed because I never thought of fighting anyone. How was I supposed to fight more than one rogue? Seems like I would have to experience what it was like being beaten by a random rogue. I felt tired all of a sudden and then sat down on the floor. "Leila you can't do that." Damian's voice came through."I can't fight them either. I mean it's not like I am that strong. You should give up too. You aren't Alpha Xander." I told him and he realized what u was saying at that instant but still didn't want to let his guard down.The rogues looked mysterious. "Did you just say Alpha Xander?" one of them asked."yes, that's my alpha," Damian replied to them and they stood still, taking their hands like people giving up in a fight. Seeing their reactions. I

I had no idea that the pack was in chaos due to my disappearance. I then started feeling this special gratitude for my Alpha."But Leila... Will you ever forgive me?" I heard Damian ask. I was already making peace with myself."I think you should give me time." I said to him and he didn't argue that as we walked, trying to find our way out of the forest. "if we find ourselves out of the forest? Do you think it will be wise to get into the black pool pack though?""that will be a terrible decision to make. I'm sure you want to be spared. We just have to find a good place to be able to stick to and lay our heads. I don't know if his people have recovered from the spell I cast on them though but I know we have gone far already and are safe from that angle. The only thing to be careful about right now is ensuring we never get to see Antonio or his wife ri

"Leila I know that I do not deserve to be around you right now but one thing is for sure. I am really sorry and I would do anything to prove it. I know you would never want to be with me again, at least not after everything you saw right there. I want to have you. Please give me a second chance to prove myself to you over and over again." I said to her and she was in pain. She put down her head, hoping to cover her face while she cried but I wasn't willing to let her happen and instead placed her head on my lap."Damian I have no choice but to forgive you. It's okay but we can no longer be partners or mates. I cherished all the time spent together but thank you. I will officially pause it here." I heard her after a while. I couldn't believe she said that to me as I was beyond shocked. Leila forgave me? I couldn't believe my eyes and ears."Leila you really forgave me
