On Sinclaire Faye’s 18th birthday, her pack's Alpha dolled her up to send her to the underground society where newly presented girls are auctioned off. However, just before she left, a massive tragedy struck their village. Chaos erupted, and the Moonstone Pack suffered a devastating loss. An Alpha from a different pack attacked them, demanding Sinclaire in exchange for sparing the others. Sinclaire—who had lived her life chained and caged—had no expectations for her new life. But what awaited her was not what she had anticipated. It turns out there’s always a rainbow after the rain, and Sinclaire’s life didn’t end the way she expected. Or so she thought.

As much as I didn't like the people in my pack, they did not deserve to just die like this. So many people have died already, and there are also those who are injured or on the brink of death. I don't want more deaths anymore.When I felt a tug on my arms, I lifted my head and met the man's dark eyes. I immediately averted my gaze, looking down on his chest instead."Come on," he whispered and started pulling me away. I didn't respond; I just looked back at where Alpha Dior was still standing, watching us leave with inscrutable eyes. I swallowed heavily, unsure of what I was currently feeling, as the man led me towards another car.He beckoned me to enter, which I immediately obliged. Alpha Dior gave me to him, whic
Sinclaire’s Point of View I stared at nowhere, my mind remained empty. I could feel the people around me walking around, talking to each other. Whether it was about me or not, I don’t know. I felt oddly disoriented and out of my body. It feels like my soul left my body the moment I learned where Alpha Dior planned to give me. It was the first time I asked him after a long time, and yet I wished I hadn't asked. I feel so empty inside, emptier than the one I felt when Dirk and my parents died. I will be auctioned off like an animal on display. Alpha Dior said the reason he didn’t let anyone touch me is because he wants me to remain pure, so when the time comes I reach the legal age and I presented, I will be auctioned off higher. Because fresh and pure women get higher bidders than those who were not. Which is why he always sends a maid to give me a healing salve which is quick to heal my bruises and not leave any marks behind. Because he was preserving me. For this moment. My hear
Sinclaire’s Point of View The days before my birthday were dreadfully boring. My body felt so restless because it wasn’t used to not doing anything. I have always been preoccupied with doing a lot of things— household chores, errands, hunting— that my body can’t stay still for a long time. Since I wasn’t allowed to leave my room, I decided to just clean it, even if it’s not untidy and dirty yet. I just really need to move and do something or else my mind will spiral out of control. It’s hard to bring myself back to reality when that happens, so I tend to avoid it from happening. Hours had passed, and I had already cleaned my room twice. I couldn’t think of anything else to do, so I just laid back on my bed and stared at the ceiling. I have no books to read, paper to write, or toys to play with. I don’t know what to do to entertain myself. I’ve been blankly staring at the ceiling for who knows how long. Time didn’t exist in this place. The only thing that lets me know what time it i
Sinclaire's Point of View The forest wrapped around me like a quilt amidst the coldness. The familiar damp smell of the earth grounded me against my nerves that just wouldn’t settle down no matter how many times I do this. Sunlight peeked through the leaves, the silence interrupted by the bird’s singing and the crickets’ noise. It was another day of hunting in the forest— just one of my many punishments in our pack. I have to hunt for animals that I could offer to the Council so I can prove myself worthy to stay at the village. If I fail, I will face severe punishment that— though I’m used to it— I would rather avoid if I can. I shifted my hold on the makeshift arrow I personally crafted from a branch I found near the residence I live in. It was rough and uneven, the tip sharpened with my pocket knife that I nicked in the old materials that the Alpha ordered for me to throw. It was not perfect for hunting— so far from perfection— but it’s the only gear I have. I couldn’t afford to
