ELIANA

My heart was still racing; I couldn't shake off the feeling of dread that settled in the pit of my stomach. My father's face flashed before my eyes, his cold, calculating gaze making my skin crawl. I knew him, knew the depths of his cruelty and the lengths he'd go to get what he wanted. And what he wanted was me back under his control. The thought sent a shiver down my spine, and I wondered with a sense of inevitability when he'd finally come for me.

I couldn't blame myself for lying to Axel. It wasn't something I'd planned on doing, but how could I have told him the truth? That my own father had sent those men to capture me? The weight of that betrayal was still too much to bear. So, I'd spun a web of deceit, hoping to protect Axel from the darkness that had haunted me for so long. But now, as I stood before him, I wondered how long it would take for him to find out that I was full of deceit.

I swallowed hard as Axel moved closer, his husky voice sending a shock down my spine

    ELIANA I followed Axel out of the forest, my heart pounded in my chest like a drum. I whispered a desperate prayer to the moon goddess, my eyes flicking up towards the sky. ‘Please, don't let my father see me. I couldn't afford that.’ The thought of facing him made my heart sink deeper. I had to remain hidden, at least for now. Axel seemed to not pay much attention to me, but I was certain he was aware of the turmoil brewing inside me; it was like he knew aware ofeverything; his long strides ate up the distance as we emerged from the forest's shadows.The thought of my father seeing me was unbearable, but what was even worse was the possibility of Axel finding out about my arranged marriage and all the lies I had told him. My stomach churned at the memory of beta Harold’s face; the memory of his face made my skin crawl. The idea of being tied to him for life was suffocating, and I knew Axel would never understand why I had agreed to such a union, and there was no way possible I would

    ELIANA I walked beside Axel, the forest seemed to grow darker, the shadows twisting into menacing shapes. Every snap of a twig almost made me flinch, but Axel's stern Warning couldn't let me. My heart raced with a fear I couldn't shake. But Axel just kept moving, his eyes fixed on some point ahead, his silence more unnerving than any words could be.I tried to calm myself down, to tell myself I was being ridiculous, but my mind wouldn't listen. I was too busy thinking of the terrible things that could happen.As we approached the house, my senses went into overdrive. I could pick up the faintest sounds from inside - the murmur of voices; I could hear growling sounds from my father; I was certain I was the topic of discussion. My heart was racing, and I felt my anxiety spike.Alessia's voice was a gentle whisper in my ear. ‘Stay calm, Eliana.’ But her words of reassurance fell flat. One misstep, one careless mistake, and my life would be forever shattered. The weight of that realizati

    ELIANA "You don't have to look at me like I'm going to kill you," Axel said, his voice low, his gaze still fixed on the road ahead. "I just asked you a simple question." Something was unsettling about the way he seemed to know exactly what I was thinking, about the way he could read me so easily. I swallowed hard, trying to compose myself, but my heart was still racing with fear."Sorry," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. "I was lost in thought, thinking about something... and wondering why you asked the question you did." I glanced at Axel, trying to read his expression, but his face remained impassive, his eyes fixed on the road ahead.I hesitated, unsure of how much to reveal. This wasn't originally my pack, and if my father found out I'd been talking about our past... I shuddered at the thought. He would use me as leverage, a pawn in his game of power and manipulation. I knew that all too well. Axel's question had unwittingly stirred up a hornet's nest of secrets and fears

    ELIANA I sank into the plush queen-sized bed, letting out a deep breath as I tried to process everything. My mind was a jumble of emotions, but the silence of the room was a welcome respite.I stood up, took off my clothes, and walked towards the bathroom. As I stepped onto the cold tile floor, my bare feet prickled with sensation, but it was a calming feeling, like a soothing balm for my frazzled nerves.I turned on the faucet, letting the water flow, but I didn't step under its stream. Instead, I stood there, lost in thought. Alessia's voice whispered in my mind, “What did he mean by 'the favor he is rendering you is for his benefit'?" The question swirled in my head, refusing to let me shake it off."I don't understand either," I replied to Alessia."Maybe he likes you," she suggested, her tone laced with a hint of curiosity.I scoffed, dismissing the idea. "That's impossible," I said to Alessia. "Let's forget he's the Lycan King for a second - have you seen this man?" I asked, my

    AXELMy gaze drifted to her round boobs. They were perfect. I could feel them calling me to pop it, I was taken aback by the sight. Her curves were flawless, and for a moment, I forgot myself. I had seen a lot of views, but this was resplendent. But as soon as desire sparked within me, I suppressed it. I hated that I reacted to her that way. She swiftly turned, but I knew she was aware that I'd seen everything."I'm used to sights like this," I said, placing the clothes on the vanity, trying to sound nonchalant. But the truth was, seeing her was different. It was more intimate and more personal, and it stirred something within me that I couldn't ignore.She let out a choked little cough, her discomfort palpable. As she turned her back to me, I couldn't help but notice the curves of her body: the long lines of her back, the tiny waist, and the rounded contours of her hips."Is there a towel?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.I hesitated, my eyes still on her. "Nah, I'll bri

    ELIANA I stood there, my mind reeling from the intensity of the moment. My cheeks flushed as I recalled the way he had gazed at my body, his eyes burning with desire. For a fleeting instant, I had seen the hunger in his eyes, but as usual, it was quickly veiled by an enigmatic mask.“I told you, he likes you!”"Alessia, stop it," I scolded her. "He can't fall for someone like me... He's notorious for not catching feelings, and even if he wanted to try, it would never be with me."I let out a frustrated chuckle at the absurdity of it all. That was impossible."I saw the way he looked at you, Eliana," Alessia persisted. "Like he wanted to devour you whole in that moment. I swear, I saw it.""Alessia, please stop it," I begged, trying to shake off the unwanted thoughts. "Just stop putting these ideas in my head, okay?”"Remember what you said about Gabriel?" I asked Alessia, my tone dripped with sarcasm. "How did that turn out?" I already knew she was aware of how miserably her predicti

    ELIANAAxel's words hung in the air, leaving me with a sense of unease. What did he mean by "not now"? Was he implying that there would be a later time when I would have to face whatever fears I was trying to keep at bay?I tried to push the thoughts aside, but they lingered, making me feel anxious and on edge. Axel seemed to sense my unease, and he reached out, his hand brushing against mine."Let's get out of here," he said, his voice low and soothing. "We can talk more about this later." I noticed the way he gazed at the door before it returned.I nodded, feeling a sense of relief wash over me. Maybe getting out of there would help me clear my head, and I could try to make sense of the strange emotions that were swirling inside me.As we walked out of the space, I couldn't shake the feeling that I was being pulled into something deeper, something that I might not be ready for.Axel's eyes scanned me from head to toe, a hint of amusement dancing on his lips.

    ELIANA"I don't know what to say," I admitted, tucking a stray strand of hair behind my ear. For some reason, the whole story made me feel deeply uneasy, like I was stuck in a web of complexities I couldn't quite navigate. I shifted uncomfortably in my chair, my eyes drifting to the untouched food in front of me. The hunger I'd felt just moments before had surprisingly vanished, replaced by a sense of queasiness that left me feeling off-balance."Should I just tell my friend to forget about the whole thing?" Axel asked, his voice low and intense. He shifted his chair closer, his eyes narrowing as he fixed me with a piercing gaze. It was as if I was a suspect, and he was trying to extract the truth from my very mind.I felt a shiver run down my spine under his scrutiny, my heart beating slightly faster. "I...I don't know," I stuttered, trying to think clearly despite the intensity of his gaze."Okay, what if you were the one in this situation?" Axel asked, his voice tight with restrain

    ELIANAI begged, my voice cracking with desperation. "No, Dad, please! I'm very sorry, I'm so sorry!" I collapsed to my knees, my body wracked with sobs as Cannis approached me with an unyielding expression. My hands grasped at my father's legs, pleading for mercy, but he remained unmoved, his face a mask of stone.A blood-curdling scream tore from my lips as Cannis seized my arm with brutal force. I couldn't contain my anguish; tears burst forth from my eyes, streaming down my face like a torrent of despair.Memories of my last confinement in the dungeon came flooding back, and I shuddered at the recollection. The relentless darkness, the gnawing hunger, the parching thirst, and the absence of sunlight had nearly claimed my life.

    ELIANA "I'm so sorry, Dad," I apologized, knowing the words would fall flat and do nothing to ease the hurt and resentment that had taken hold of his heart.Nothing I ever did seemed to make a difference, and I felt a pang of hopelessness wash over me."Your apology is meaningless, you fool," Victoria spat, her voice venomous. "Do you have any idea the pressure you've put my husband under?”"You're such an ungrateful wretch," Victoria's voice dripped with disdain. "After everything we've done for you - taking you in, providing for you... is this how you repay our kindness?”I was stunned. Did she really just say kindness? After everything I'd been through? The countless leftovers I'd scavenged, the brutal beatings I'd endured, the relentless suffering I'd faced... and she dared to speak of kindness? The word felt like a slap in the face, a cruel mockery of my reality.I wished that the universe had a way of punishing deceit, that a spirit of truth would strike down those who spoke li

    ELIANA I locked gazes with my father, my eyes wide with terror, my heart was beating so fast, I knew he was capable of doing the most unthinkable thing.My father's eyes blazed with a fierce and unholy anger, the irises burning with an inner fire that seemed to sear my very soul. I trembled at the thought of his wrath.Here's a rephrased version that maintains I could see the rage in his eyes, and I wouldn't be surprised if he'd feed my blood to the vampires."How dare you, Eliana?" my father thundered, his voice exploding through the room like a crack of lightning, making me recoil in fear.As was her custom, Victoria, his stunning yet sinister wife, stood poised in the shadows, a devilish smile spreading across her face like a dark stain, her eyes glinting with malice.An unmistakable smile played on her lips, a twisted gleam in her eyes, for she reveled in my misery, feeding off the venomous hatred my father spewed towards me, her presence a constant reminder of the toxic dynamics

    ELIANA "I'm the Lycan king," Axel stated, his voice low and even. "It wouldn't be good to harbor you here. You belong in your father's home, with him." His hazel eyes locked onto mine, staring daringly.Axel's words cut through me like a knife, shattering my heart into a million pieces. The way he said it, his tone firm and unyielding, sent a shiver down my spine. I couldn't quite decipher the emotion behind his words - was it anger, frustration, or something else entirely? Whatever it was, it left me feeling vulnerable and exposed.Each word felt like a dagger, piercing my heart and soul with cruelty. The pain was palpable, a physical ache that threatened to consume me whole. Axel's words were laced with a detached indifference, making them feel all the more brutal and unforgiving.I gulped in a lungful of dry air, my throat constricting with emotion. "Okay," I whispered, the word barely audible. I felt a sense of resignation wash over me, a sense of inevitability. "I'll just cha

    ELIANAMy heart racing accelerated, my pulse quickening to a frantic pace. A single, terrifying question echoed through my mind: Had Axel finally uncovered the truth - that I had been deceiving him all along?There was no way I could confess the truth about my father with Cannis standing there, listening in. The risk was too great, and I knew I had to protect my secret, at least for now.I was terrified that I might let something slip, and Axel wouldn't believe me. If that happened, Cannis would undoubtedly report back to my father, and my punishment would be severe. The thought sent a chill down my spine.I couldn't help but notice a subtle shift in Axel's demeanor. He had never been warm or friendly, always maintaining a stoic exterior. But today, I sensed something underlying, a hint of emotion simmering just beneath the surface, making me wonder what could be driving this unexpected change.It might simply be one of his characteristic mood swings, or perhaps there was something mo

    ELIANA "Alessia whispered 'Cannis' and I could sense the fear trembling in her voice. I was equally terrified. What was he doing here? I thought, my heart racing with every passing second. I took a cautious step forward, my senses on high alert.”I made my way towards Axel, attempting to brush off the unsettling feeling of Cannis's stare. Axel sat in the dining room, dressed in all-black attire, exuding an air of authority from his imposing chair.I had never seen this dining room before. Its opulent decor and antique furnishings transported me to 19th-century London. The atmosphere was shrouded in mystery as if the room held secrets of the past.I approached Axel, feeling tiny beside his massive chair. "You sent for me?" I said, my voice barely above a whisper, threatening to tremble. I hoped he wouldn't detect the fear lurking beneath my words.A lavish spread of food adorned the table, which only added to my confusion.The mansion seemed to hold even more secrets, as I stumbled up

    ELIANA"Alessia, what's gotten into you?" I scolded, my voice laced with concern. Few days ago, she had been the one cautioning me about Axel's intentions, warning me to keep my distance. Now, it seemed like she'd done a complete 180, her obsession with him bordering on alarming. It was as if she'd been brainwashed, her eyes taking on a glassy, far-off quality whenever she mentioned his name. I was starting to worry about her, and I didn't know how to snap her out of it.Just as I was trying to make sense of Alessia's sudden obsession, a knock at the door broke the tension. I hesitated for a moment, expecting it to be Axel on the other side. But to my surprise, it was Tom, Axel's beta, who stood in the doorway, his eyes scanning the room with a mixture of curiosity and caution.My eyebrows furrowed into a deep frown as I recalled our last encounter, the tension between us still palpable. "Hello," I said curtly, my tone neutral. Tom's expression remained impassive, but I detected a fli
