Lyra's POVI felt a sense of dread and fear wash over me. They had claimed that they were taking me to a special dungeon but as much as I could remember, I knew no such thing existed. I didn't know what to do about that nor how to go about asking them where we were going.I was a prisoner, it was not my place to ask questions but to sit still and allow them.lead me to wherever they wanted to. All i was now was no one's fault but mine.I knew I had this weird obsession with blaming myself for every little thing that happened but it truthfully was my fault. Though I couldn't keep on blaming myself for every little thing, every action someone made against me but I felt if i hadn't behaved in a certain way, said some particular words then maybe they wouldn't have acted in such a way to me.Everything in life was a causal effect, one thing had to happen for something else to happen and in this case, I had to open my mouth and say some fucked uo things to Asher, things that Kaden eventually
Lyra's POVThere was a throbbing feeling at the back of my head. It ached so badly like I had fallen off a cliff and fell right onto a boulder, which was mostly true for some parts, I did get thrown off a cliff.My body felt seriously weak and I could feel my limbs begging me to keep laying down. It seemed like as I woke up, my whole body jolted awake and it wasn't a feeling it actually liked.The sun was shining on my face and even if I didn't want to wake up, the blinding sunlight was enough to bring me back to reality. I couldn't open my eyes yet because they hurt, everything hurts. From my head to my feet, I was in pain and it should be pointed out that I had several injuries on my person, injuries that I feared needed to be treated sooner or later or else they might turn into something else.However, I felt a sort of vibration, I knew that I had fallen off a cliff, or more precisely, I had been thrown off a cliff and it was expected that I would wake up on fresh grass or rather
Asher's POVIt was the morning after the whole ordeal, I had passed the night with Devlin. My sleep had been quite poor and my night couldn't get any worse.I couldn't stop myself from thinking about Lyra, all of this had happened because of her.I don't even know how she got into it with Kaden that made my stepmother extremely angry but I did know that I couldn't allow her to get her way with Lyra or any other person.My stepmother, Bertha, was a cruel and bitter woman, she got off from wreaking havoc and allowing people to suffer. That wickedness in her had been there since she was a child, it was brought into this world with her and they would die together as one.I didn't understand why anybody would derive pleasure from doing the bullshit that she had planned to do, she was very protective of Kaden and it was quite irrational, when I had won the competition and became the alpha, Bertha was the least happy about it and she didn't even think to hide it from the public or from my fa
Lyra's POVThe van where we were kept in suddenly stopped, I peered my head over to look at the place where it had halted and I was almost thrown off the van by the appearance of the place.It was big, it looked somewhat like a castle but then there were some modern amenities added to it that gave it a kind of amazing view. The mansion was painted white that made it seem even more majestic and there were flowers planted around it to give it colour and it did a wonderful job at that. I was beyond marvelled but unfortunately I did not have the luxury of time to drool over the grandiose building in front of me.The men who had been driving the vehicle made it over to the back of the van where the other people and I were kept.He opened the small door and started beckoning them over one by one.It was then that I saw the chains tied around our wrists like we were slaves. The chains were all connected from one person to another and from the looks of it, I was the last person. The others k
Lyra's POVI turned my face away in disgust. I couldn't bear the thought of being with someone like him just because I wanted food.Of course I would die, but it was more preferable to die, there was nothing for me to live for anyway and I would die with my dignity intact.I wanted to laugh at myself, I had no dignity, I lost that when I had kept my mouth shut instead of telling Asher that I wasn't Devlin, that was when all forms of dignity evaporated from my body and I have been left with nothing.Maybe that was why this guard looked at me and saw me as the perfect target. He had claimed that my body was better than the rest of the girls but I knew better than to believe him, he probably saw me as desperate and in need of validation because of my face and as such, he aimed at me and wanted to use me to soothe his pleasure.He was wrong, I was different, I wasn't what he thought me to be, I was better than that, I wasn't some cheap whore and I was even more inclined to die than sleep
Lyra's POVI was shocked by his words. I had not been expecting that if he wanted someone to warm his bed, it would be me. I was ugly and I was not physically befitting to be his plaything. From the looks in his eyes, he has better taste, he wasn't into the kind of person I was. I was ugly and disgusting and he shouldn't be wasting his time with me but then he wanted me to warm his bed.I was not in any way honored or even happy, it wasn't a recognition that I was proud of and honestly, it made me even disgusted at myself. Asher had said the same thing, having me as a plaything to warm his bed, it made me wonder if that was all I was just seen as. The guard from.earlier walked past a number of very beautiful women but stopped at my cell, my face was filled with disgusting pimples and I was hideous to the eyes but he stopped at my cell and he chose me as the person he wants to have his way with and the same goes for this alpha standing before me and it was the same thing with Asher.I
Lyra's POVI looked behind me at the door that just opened up. There were three women standing there. They didn't look happy or even particularly stylish, at the very least they looked only slightly better than me. They were slim women that had rough looking hairs on their head. Each if their heads were bowed down, their eyes pinned on the floor board. As they opened the door, the women fell to their feet and bowed with their forehead touching the ground.I was perplexed, I knew an alpha was supposed to be respected and admired by his members and his slaves but I had never seen any aloha being greeted the way they had greeted him. Like he was some kind of a god they were supposed to worship. At the very least, he looked like a god, no matter the aura he gave off or how scary he looked or how psychotic he seemed from forcing me to eat the ear of a guard, he was still very undeniably handsome and his eyes were surely something to write about in the history books. It was a fact that th
Lyra's POVI was shocked, I was so surprised I couldn't take my eyes off of him. He stared at me like what he had just said was quite the funniest thing in the world and the response of his guests fueled the smile on his face.He was looking at me smiling. I couldn't help it, I fell to my knees with years rushing down from my eyes. I didn't care about what his guests thought of me, I had lived as a slave and I had no self respect, I had nothing just the will to survive. I was on my knees in front of him, hoping that the tears running down my eyes could help, hoping that the tears would quench any flame of anger or resentment in his heart. Hoping that he would take pity on me.My knees were in front of him, begging him for something else, for him to change his mind about this, for him to see that I was worth more than he was giving me credit for. I wanted him to see that I wasn't just something he could have sex with, I h
