The water
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56The water reached my waist but was filling up pretty fast. I screamed out loud but the sound stopped inside the tank. I was pretty sure no one could hear me from outside. I coughed out water that I had swallowed while at the bottom. The tank had a narrow opening at the top which was giving me the air I needed to breathe. I panicked as I saw the water level going up.
In only a few seconds, the water was already at my neck. I continued to scream and shout, calling out for anyone to come and get me out of there, or turn off the water. The door did not open and I couldn’t hear any sound except that of the water. In the end, I watched helplessly as the water filled up. I tried to remain afloat and swim but it was of no use. The water was filling up fast. I started to hit the plastic tank but it was hopeless. Nothing was going to happen to it. The only way to destroy it would have been to cut the hard plastic but I didn’t have any sharp thing.
Soon the water had filled up but it was still flowing in from the pipe attached to the tank. The pipe was attached to the top which made it hard for me to be able to reach and try to block the water from flowing in.
Submerged under the water, I started struggling to breath. I couldn’t find a trace of oxygen and when I breathed in, water kept going into my nose. I struggled for a few minutes as I began to feel dizzy and weak. The feeling of drowning has to be the worst thing I have ever experienced. I could feel my head and body shutting down while I couldn’t do anything about it.
Sometime later, I became conscious again but drowned again almost immediately. For a few hours, I kept becoming conscious and dying after a few seconds. It wouldn’t have bothered me if drowning wasn’t so painful. The amount of water submerging my internal organs made them ache a lot. I could feel the intense pain every time I gained consciousness. I didn’t know how long I could take it before I ripped my organs out for some relief.
I realised Jackson was trying to break me. Had I not been in such a terrible situation, I might have laughed. I could feel my brain slowly shutting down again. The next time I woke up, I was lying at the bottom of the plastic tank. All the water had been drained. I used my elbow to support myself and started coughing out the water trapped in my body. The coughing was so painful but I knew it had to be done for me to get some relief. When I finished coughing like someone who was about to die, I felt a familiar presence in the room. I stood up, my dress holding on to my body like second skin.
“If you think you’re going to break me with such silly tricks, you’re mistaken.” I told him. “I don’t want to be with a man like you and all these things are making me realise that I’m making the right decision. Do you think making me suffer will make me want you?” I chuckled. “Instead it makes me hate you more. You’re just proving how despicable you are.”
He didn’t say anything, just stared at me for a few minutes.
“What is it, Jackson? Are you not used to people standing up to you? Well, now that I’m here, I’ll show you that not everybody will bow down to your tyrannical rule. Some of us will not let you treat us like mules. We shall fight for what is right.”
He smiled, which annoyed me the more. “That’s exactly what I like about you. You have so much fire, so much grit and guts. You’re not easily intimidated, even by a man with a reputation like mine. That’s exactly the kind of woman I want as my mate and luna. The moon goddess made the perfect match this time. You’re so much like me.”
“I’m nothing like you, Jackson king. You’re a despicable jerk who uses his power to make other people’s lives a living hell. I would never want to be associated with you in a way. In fact, I hope no one ever finds out that I was ever mated to you. You’re a monster.”
He sighed and walked closer to the tank. He looked into my eyes with his deep blues. For a moment, I was dazed and started getting lost in them but I moved back and looked around the room to break the trance. As much as I didn’t like it, this man had an effect on me. Until he accepted my rejection, I would have to continue wrestling with my attraction towards him. Every part of my body except my brain wanted him. I felt like forgetting the world and accepting him. A part of me thought I could change him.
But when I looked up to see him smirking at me, the anger returned. I rolled my eyes. “So what? Are you going to keep me in here all day? Will you bring in more water so I can continue drowning till I accept you?”
He nodded. “Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. i want you to know one thing. I’m not about to give up on you. I will do anything to make you take back that rejection. Don’t you see? We’d be great together. We could be a power couple, given that we’re both tough. We can make our pack the greatest in the island.”
I rolled my eyes. “Do you hear yourself? We’re not the same. While you want to be better than everyone, I don’t. I just want to live in a fair world, where everyone is treated well and can access everything they need.”
“That’s even great,” he said. “You can be in charge of the philanthropic department. We don’t have it yet but you can create and run it, while I take charge of other things.”
“I would never work with or for you.”
He shrugged. “Well then. Enjoy drowning.”
“Please, alpha Jackson. Don’t do that to me.”
“Let me know when you’re ready to make the right decision,” he said, before opening the door.
Almost immediately, water started rushing into the tank again. As I saw the tank filling up, I wondered if it would be so bad if I accepted him as my mate. I didn’t feel like drowning again.

Jackson.“Just let her out,” I told Joshua. There was no point in keeping Kelsey in the water tank since she’d decided not to give in. she had been there for over ten hours, alternating between consciousness and unconsciousness but still refused to give in to my conditions. “Okay,” Joshua said and left the room to do the needful. After a minute, I decided to follow him, a part of me wanting to see how she was doing.When I got to the room, she had been pulled out already and was standing near the tank. She was shivering and her white dress was hanging on to her skin like second skin. I could see all the soft, nice curves. I wanted to continue staring but then again, the two guards inside could also see her like that. My wolf growled.“Get out,” I said to the guards. “Bring a warm cloth for her to cover herself.”“You sound like you care,” she said after the guards had left.“What if I said I did?” I asked.“I wouldn’t believe you,” she said.“That’s good, because I just couldn’t stan
The Alpha's Willing Slave Approval
After getting approval from his boss, the guard who had been standing outside the door led me out of there. We went out of that section of the building, finding ourselves in the backyard. There were two women sitting on a wooden swing under a small tree. As the guard led me out, they stared curiously. I could tell that there was something going on in their minds. When they started talking, I judged from their expressions that it was all about me. I made a face at them and followed the guard towards the end of the building with the dungeon.As we entered the building, I noticed that the women had stood up and were following us. I forgot all about them as we got inside and I was taken to the cold dungeon. Before the guard could lock the door, the women arrived.“Hey,” one of them said. She was tall and blonde. “We would like to speak to her for a second. We need some answers from this woman.”“That’s not allowed,” the guard said to her. “She’s a slave who should be isolated.”The smalle
The Alpha's Willing Slave Out and about
The work I was doing was terrible, but I was out of the dungeon. For days, I had been stuck inside that dank place and almost felt like my brain was slowly rotting away. Although the air I was breathing in stank, it felt fresher than that in the dungeon. The smell of animal waste filled the air as we cleaned the kraal. Midnight Pack was a large pack with a vast amount of land that stretched for miles and miles. The pack had many businesses, investments and also large farms, one of which was for livestock. It was the one I and a few other slaves had been assigned to work on.The livestock farm was four kilometres away from the pack house and it was huge. It was packed with a variety of animals and birds that provided great nutrition for the members of Midnight Pack. The work at the farm was a lot and was done by mostly slaves. The only pack members there were holding supervisory roles, giving orders left and right.I was working in the kraals with a young woman called Mia. She was a q
The Alpha's Willing Slave The revenge
The foolish slaves had decided to take their revenge on Mia by splashing dung all over her body. She was seated on the ground crying while they watched her. The sight triggered my wolf who immediately got angry, sending me a rush of adrenaline and strength. Immediately, I lunged on the tallest one of the three slaves and toppled him before he knew what had hit him. I attacked the next guy immediately and fought him longer before sending him hurtling across the room. The other one attacked me before I could get to him so I fell. But I had spent my whole life training to be stronger than most men. I got up almost immediately and resumed fighting. This time the three of them all ganged up against me so I was getting defeated. Thankfully, two of the pack guards came into the room, making us all freeze.“What’s going on here?” one asked.“Look what they did to that innocent girl,” I said, forcing tears out of my eyes. They obliged and made me look weaker than I was. “She didn’t do anythin

The cottage was in the middle of the woods. Walking out of it, we saw a few pack guards playing cards under a small tree in the compound. They didn’t say anything as we walked into the woods. I was about to ask when, as if reading my mind, Kat told me that one of them was her boyfriend. Kat told me more about the pack as she led me deeper into the woods. A part of me wondered whether it was a good idea to trust her, but I decided to ignore that. Kat was the only connection I had to my past and it would do us good if we stuck together.“The inner border is here,” Kat said. If you didn’t believe in the supernatural, you’d think there was nothing special about the boundary. It looked just like the other parts of the forest except I could feel strong energy there. “Come on.”I followed Kat to the side with thick shrubs and some elm trees. “These are herbs,” she pointed to a certain plant. “We’ll pick them so if someone finds us here and asks what we were doing, we’ll say we came for the

“Come with me,” he said.“Are you sure about this?” Kat asked. “These men can be cruel.”I smiled. “Trust me, I know what I’m doing. This man is going to regret whatever he plans to do.”“Stop gossiping,” the man yelled.Kat was still giving me a worried look when I turned to follow the man called Commander Augustine. The forest was quiet and still, the evening breeze blowing fresh air over my face as I trudged on behind the big man. As we got to a thicker section, my heart began to beat faster. The man was extremely huge compared to me. He could flip me over like a pancake with only one hand. As we went deeper, I began to think I had made a very bad decision. I was relying on the mate bond between Alpha Jackson and I to save me. The problem was, would he feel saving me was worth it? Would he even get the signal? First of all, we had not yet mated. To make matters worse, I had rejected him and had lost a small connection to him but not all since he had not yet accepted that rejection
The Alpha's Willing Slave Losing it
Some time as he carried me, I lost consciousness. When I woke up, I found myself in an unfamiliar room. All it had was a bed and table. The beddings were very clean, soft and smelled nice. I remembered the pill and realised I was feeling better, like my normal self. Even though the curtains were down, I could tell it was morning due to the kind of light coming through. Sitting up, I stretched hard. I spotted a folded piece of paper on the table and leapt out of bed to get it. It was a note that said, “Good morning. The dress is for you. You can take a shower in the bathroom, everything you might need is in there. J.”I rolled my eyes, then glanced at the folded flowered dress on the table. “Really?” I said, shaking my head, a smile etched on my face. Did he really think I was the type of girl who wore white dresses with big bright pink flowers on them? I held the cloth up and chuckled, imagining myself in it. It looked so weird, with colours I’d never be caught wearing. There was ev
The Alpha's Willing Slave The other woman
Jackson.Red Moon pack had the best grazing grounds in the region. The grounds were close to a lake and that made them ideal for rearing animals. Having it would also make it easier for us to catch the big forest animals that were lured by the water. I had been wanting to have those grounds for a very long time. That was the reason I got extremely angry when I was informed that the men I had sent to captured it failed.“How did this happen?” I yelled at the commanders of the operation. My beta Alexander had led the operation alongside Commander Andres. “We have captured so many places in the same fashion. Red moon pack is very small and does not have the capacity to resist even a quarter of my men. What really happened?”Secret operations had always been the most effective for me. Most of the packs did not have a lot of security forces. Even when they had, they were not always keeping watch which made it easy for us to ambush them. I could not believe the incompetence this time.Midni

“What are we going to do about her?” I asked Jackson thirty minutes after he kicked out Francesca. I shuddered when I remembered the madness in the woman’s eyes. It was clear that she would never accept that Jackson wasn’t hers. I used to think she was just obsessed but it turned out she was also delusional. Something wasn’t right in that crazy brain of hers. Jackson poured the water into the glass and gave it to me before putting the jug back in the fridge. We were standing by the kitchen counter.“I don’t know,” he said. “What I know is she’ll be leaving the pack house today. I’ve asked them to take her to a secure place as I plan on what to do. “I can’t have her here because she’s a danger to you. I’ve always known she didn’t like you but didn’t think she’d go to the extent of wanting to kill you. I cannot tolerate that.”I went and hugged him. “Thank you so much. Truthfully, I don’t think I can feel safe with her around.”“I know.”I heard those words in my mind. With narrowed ey
The Alpha's Willing Slave A dark turn
I smiled when I felt the hand move from my wrist to my waist. His other hand joined the first one. A wave of delicious heat travelled from my waist to my core, and I felt my nicker getting wet. I moaned as I looked up. Jackson angled his head to the side and kissed me on the lips.“Hey,” I said when his lips met mine. I looked around and saw that people had moved further from us. He was hugging me from behind and I just wanted to collapse in his arms. My heart was beaming with joy as my wolf danced around in my head.“Let’s get out of here,” he said.“Sure.”Jackson took my hand and we walked out of the yard, several eyes staring at us. We entered through one of the side doors and went straight to the elevator. He didn’t wait for the door to close. Jackson pushed me against the wall and kissed me. The kiss was rough and fast, a testament to our starvation. As he kissed me, one of his hands went down and pulled my dress up as he touched my core, rubbing in rough circles. By the time we
The Alpha's Willing Slave Avoiding Jackson
I spent the next two weeks avoiding Jackson. I had returned to my room in the servant’s quarters and asked Francesca to give me roles that didn’t involve serving the alpha directly and she obliged which made it easier to avoid running into Jackson. Jackson did not also bother to look for me so the distance between us grew each day. Thankfully, I never felt any mating related pain which made me happy. At least he was not sleeping with Mia or any other woman.Kat left the day after the celebration. I’d never seen her so happy. She promised to help me repair the relationship with my parents and she fulfilled it. Two weeks after Kat had left, my mother arrived at Midnight Pack and asked for me. We hugged for what seemed like hours by the swimming pool, crying and talking about how we missed each other. “I’ve tried to talk to your father,” she said. “He’s coming around but you’ll have to give him some time. Losing Edmund took a toll on him. Edmund had been prepared to be the heir. He may

The warriors surrounded Vlad while others went to lift their alpha and quickly carried him away. Vlad turned his attention to the guard holding the torch and made him fall to the ground. Suddenly, he was invisible which made it easy for him to escape the guards. He returned to where we were and told us to hold his hands. We did and started running towards the outer boundary. We hit it and stumbled back.“Shit!” Vlad said. “This seems to have been reinforced since Bryson took over. That bastard.”“They’re going to try to escape but won’t be getting anywhere. Michael, run to the pack house and get more torches. Suddenly, we heard two distinct howls and the guards all went down on one knee, their faces adopting sombre looks. My eyes widened.“Bryson is dead!”Vlad smiled. “Yes. I knew he would die. I added black magic to that silver bullet. It had to take him down.”Forgetting about us, the guards started running back towards the pack house.“We need to get Jackson!” Vlad said and let g

“Let’s go into the woods,” Maran suggested, running from the yard towards the back yard.“Okay,” I said, following him at a high speed.“Get AJ right now!” Bryson yelled and guards started running around in different directions. Running while holding another person’s hand made things complicated but we managed to reach the wooded area quickly.We did not stop until we were over five hundred metres away from the pack house and deep in the woods.“I think we’ll find Vlad in the caves,” I told Maran. “Let’s go there.”Suddenly, a portal appeared in front of us and Vlad stepped out of it. “It’s really you!” Maran exclaimed. “I’ve read a lot about you. I couldn’t believe it when I heard you had come back to life.”“You’ll have enough time to worship me later,” Vlad was still as cocky as ever. “Do you know how to reverse the Xiang Xiang spell?”“Anna Jiang taught me,” Maran said. “But I’ve never done it practically. All I know is the theoretical part.”“That’ll have to do,” Vlad said. “Now
The Alpha's Willing Slave Set me free
I let Bryson do whatever he wanted with me for two days. I stayed silent and pretended to be unmoved while planning my next move. Quietly, I studied Bryson and the new staff in the pack house. I had no idea where Francesca and Kat were but was glad I didn’t have to run into them. By the third day, I was ready to set Maran free. I chose to do it on that day because Bryson was around which meant that his guards wouldn’t be watching me like hawks.I failed to get my hands on a good weapon so I settled for the small dagger I found under Bryson’s bed. The only decent thing Bryson had done was not sleeping in Jackson’s bed. Of course he didn’t do it out of respect but because he found Jackson disgusting. As if! While Bryson dined and wined with his loud mouthed friends in the living room at 4pm, I snuck out of my room. The main hallway of the second floor was empty and so was that of the first floor. It was almost too easy. It made me wonder if I was being set up. What if Bryson had someho
The Alpha's Willing Slave Surrender
The person’s scent was familiar but I couldn’t place it. All of a sudden, he let go of me. I thought I was about to come face to face with Bryson or one of his guards. To my relief, it was Vlad.“How did you find me?” I asked, trying to study him in the dark cave. My super eyesight was enabled me to identify him but I couldn’t see him very well.“I’m one of the most powerful witches in the world,” he said. “I tracked you.”“What do you want from me?”“I want you to surrender to Bryson Miller.”I gasped. “What? Do you want to get me killed?”He shook his head. “No. Bryson won’t kill you. If he wanted to kill you, he’d have done it already. He wants to use you to make Jackson jealous and made. That’s all. “That man raped me,” I said. “I can’t go near him again.”“I’m sorry that happened to you, but do you have an idea how many women he’s raping now? The man even undergoes for minors. Do you understand now how important it is for him to be stopped?”“Yes, I do and I wish to stop him but

Thankfully, the information had not yet reached the motel. Betsy the girl who ran it was shocked when I decided to check out at night. I refused to reply her questions and told her to keep the money I had already paid for that night. I didn’t find a taxi so I ran to the high way and began walking along it. About ten minutes later, a truck appeared. It was going the opposite direction so I crossed the road and stopped it. “Hey, where are you going?” a man looked out of the window.“Midnight Pack,” I said.It was the safest place for me at that time. I didn’t intend to give myself up for Bryson but to hide in the one place he wouldn’t think of looking. Bryson knew that I had run away. He also knew that the people of Midnight Pack would surrender me if they found me. Therefore he wouldn’t think I’d do to hide there. Running to other packs was more dangerous for me. When I arrived at my pack, I paid the kind truck driver and alighted near the forest. Stepping into it, I ran as fast as I

For the first time in my life, I was truly alone. The whole world had turned against me and I couldn’t think of anyone who loved or wanted to be with me. My family and pack mates had watched in silence as I was banished from home once again. The first time I left, I had a plan but this time there was nothing in mind. I had no idea where to go. I walked towards our small town. I was about to reach when I met my cousins Hans and Jerry.“Look who we have here,” jerry sneered, standing in my way. I was in no mood to talk so I tried to move out of the way but he grabbed my wrist. “What are you doing here, you killer?”“I’m not a killer,” I defended myself.“You probably killed Edmund and lied about it,” Hans said.Hans and Edmund were 17 and 18 respectively. I wasn’t about to let them disrespect me. “Could you please leave me alone? I’ve been banished from the pack and vie got to get out of here.”“What do you have here?” Hans asked, ripping my bag from my hands.“Hey, give it back!”He ra
