#Chapter10

Cain was leaning against the car with his arms folded across his chest, impatiently waiting for me, and he appeared to be irritated. I smiled and laughed internally.

He glared at me while raising a brow. “Are you finished? I would like to get going sometime soon instead of next year.” He growled.

I rolled my eyes and began walking towards him; I had the sudden urge just to run as fast and as far as I possibly could. However, that stupid annoying ass voice in my head kept telling me that if I did, it would be the most foolish mistake of my life.

As I approached the car, to my surprise, Cain opened the car door for me, raising his arm and motioning for me to enter the vehicle. As I stepped into the car, Cain took my bag and closed the door after taking my seat.

He got into the car a moment later, started the engine and drove off. I sat there in my seat, feeling defeated and a little bit broken. I stared at my home that was fading within the distance, where my loved ones were, wishing I could just run back in there and be with them. My wolf began to pace and whine in my head, making everything worse.

The drive was unbearable and agonizing; we both remained silent, not uttering a single word to each other or even sparing a glance. I just continued to sit there, with my head leaning against the window, watching everything zoom past me. Finally, not able to take this silent torture anymore, I straightened myself up in my seat and turned towards him.

I sucked in a deep breath. “How much longer till we are there?”

He just sat there, not saying a single word, staring at the road with hyperfocus; both hands were gripping the steering wheel so tightly, his knuckles were turning white.

I leaned forward a bit. “Hey, did you hear me? I asked how much longer until we are there?” I was becoming irritated now.

All of a sudden, the car came to an abrupt stop. I lurched forward and then back in my seat, so hard that I would be surprised if I didn’t have fucking whiplash.

Cain didn’t move or look away from the road; his jaw was clenched tight enough to break teeth, his nostrils flared, and those green pools were nearly pitch black now.

“What the fuck was that all about?” I hollered.

He slowly turned his head towards me, locking his eyes with mine in a deadly glare; his hands tightened around the steering wheel even more.

He narrowed his gaze. “For one, what did I tell you about that attitude of yours? Also, who’s scent is that on you?” He questioned me through gritted teeth.

He must be able to smell Erik on me, but how did he not scent him earlier, or if he did, why didn’t he say something sooner.

I placed my hand on my chest. “Oh, so sorry, your highness, where are my manners. If I may so question Alpha, when will we be arriving at our destination, sir?” I said in a sarcastic tone while batting my eyelashes and plastering a broad cheeky smile across my face.

His expression was less than pleased as the corner of his lip curled up, and a dangerously low snarl sounded from him.

Cain closed the distance between us. “You’re pushing it; you know that? And I won’t ask you again whose scent that is on you?” He said in a calm and ominous tone.

“Oh, I know, I love to push buttons, it’s a specialty of mine, and that’s none of your fucking business,” I said, grinning at him, fuck him and fuck that; he can kiss my ass. Cain wants to take me from my home, family, and pack; well, I’m not going to make things easy for him.

Without another word, he bolted from the car and came to my side so fast, I didn’t have time to lock the door before he wrenched it open, yanked me out of the car by my arm and slammed the door shut.

Cain then slammed me against the car, pressing his body against mine. There was almost no distance between us as his eyes burrowed into mine. Finally, he placed one hand on the car and gripped my chin with the other, with just enough force to let me know that he was livid.

“Did I not tell you to lose that attitude? Did I not tell you that there would be consequences?” His voice was deep and gruff, but I just stood there silently and stared at him, not moving an inch.

A smirk grew across his face, and he tilted his head down, brushing his lips against my cheek, causing me to stiffen and my thighs to squeeze together. His lips hovered, barely touching my skin, as he closed what little bit of distance was left between us. I could feel his thick, hard cock brushing against my leg, causing a pool of wetness to soak my underwear.

Cain trailed down to my jawline, still hovering his mouth just above my skin, then gently began to kiss my neck. A gasp escaped from my lips as my heart started beating erratically, my chest heaved, and my legs squeezed together even tighter as he continued his onslaught of gentle kisses down my neck to collarbone. This man was a monster who had just ripped me from everything and everyone that I loved, and yet he had me wrapped around his finger at this moment and was making me so fucking horny that it was painful.

He groaned in satisfaction. “I can smell your arousal, my love; I can tell just how excited you are, how wet you are,” Cain said in a low husky tone.

Cain released my chin and began to gently caress my cheek before entwining his hand within my hair. He tilted his head up and looked me in the eyes. His lips hovered above mine as he said in a seductive tone, “Are you going to tell me whose scent that is that lingers on you?”

Well, that ruined the mood! But that statement brought me out of my lust-filled haze and made me remember just who I was dealing with at this moment.

I chuckled and leaned into him, licking his upper lip. “I’ll never tell you,” I whispered.

He removed his hand from my hair and wrapped it around my neck, his eyes pitch black now.

“So, that’s how it’s going to be, huh? One way or the other, you will tell me what I want to know.”

Cain then opened the car door, shoved me inside and slammed it shut. He entered the car and took a sharp breath as he started the engine and took off like a madman. I wouldn’t let it show, but I was scared and feared for my life at this moment.

After what felt like the longest drive in history, we finally reached his territory. It was quiet and dark; I couldn’t see much, except for some dimly lit homes and buildings. Cain began to slow the car down as we approached a large iron gate. A burly-looking man came out of a shack and opened the gate for us to proceed through. He continued to drive down a narrow gravel road; large, thick trees surrounded the road. Before I knew it, we arrived at his house; I looked away from the window and down at my lap; this was it, this was my end.

Cain parked the car. “We are here.” He stated with an edgy tone.

I didn’t move or say a word, just continued to stare at my lap. I honestly didn’t want to get out of the car in fear of what was to come, of what my future held. Finally, Cain got out of the car and approached my side; he opened the door and motioned for me to get out. I still didn’t move or say a word to him.

He exhaled heavily. “Get out of the car now, or I will drag you out, your choice.” His tone was serious and deadly.

I closed my eyes and mustered up as much courage and bravery as possible, and stepped out of the vehicle.

Once I was out of the car, I peered up at the massive fortress in front of me. The house before me was now my home and my prison. The place was tremendous from the outside but also beautiful, lights adorned the pathway, and small shrubs were lined up perfectly along the front entrance. In addition, there was a sizeable wooden porch wrapped around the front of the house. The front door was enormous, standing tall and broad, with beautiful accents carved into the wood. The home itself was painted a midnight sky blue, and it was breathtaking.

Anyone that I do not introduce you to, you are not to speak to at all. After that, you will be given a tour of the areas that you need to be familiar with when it is convenient.” He gripped my elbow a little tighter before continuing. “And I will not repeat myself on this one; you are to watch that pretty little mouth of yours; I will not tolerate being embarrassed in front of my pack. Do I make myself clear?” I narrowed my eyes at him. “Crystal.” “Good girl,” He said in a sarcastic voice while petting the top of my head. I pulled away from him and stared daggers at him. Cain grinned. “I am going to have so much fun breaking that defiant spirit of yours, my love,” Cain said as he opened one of the doors and practically shoved me inside. The inside of the house was just as beautiful

    #Chapter12We reached the top of the stairs and went down the hallway to our right. Portraits were hung along the grey painted walls, a few chaise lounges, with small tables and lamps decorating the hallway. However, what had caught my eye was the massive, black door at the end of the hallway. Finally, we reached the broad wooden door, which was even taller up close. Calyx gripped the door handle, swung it open and led me inside the room.“This is Cain’s room and now, yours as well,” He said as he gestured around the room. I froze, thinking about what Calyx had just said to me. “Wait……Cain will be staying in here with me?” I asked obliviously, hoping I had heard him wrong. He chuckled. “Well, yea. It’s his room, and you are his mate.” He stated as if I had just asked the stupidest question. My wolf growled in my head as my nostrils flared, and I clenched my fists at my sides. “I’m not his mate.” I said through gritted teeth, “And, I won’t be sharing a room with him. I would lik

My wolf was itching to break free now as she growled furiously in my head. He bent down and whispered in my ear, “I am going to teach you a lesson for disobeying me.” Cain then lightly licked my ear lobe, and I could feel his hard, thick cock twitch against my thigh. I squirmed and thrashed in his hold, but his grip only tightened, and he pushed his body into mine even further, causing the towel to come undone. He peered down at the fabric that covered my naked body and smiled before backing up just enough to allow the towel to fall to my feet.A low growl slipped past my lips, and I narrowed my eyes at him. “Let me go, asshole,” I demanded, but the smile on his face just widened. He spun us around and sat down on the bed; Cain spread me across his lap on my belly. I continued to squirm and wiggle, trying to free myself from him, but he gripped both of m

    #Chapter14The bright morning light invaded the room, waking me from my deep slumber and that horrible nightmare. I lay there, thinking about the dream that I had encountered. I had never seen a face, just teeth, but why was I covered in blood? Who was attacking me? I reminded myself that it was just a dream and cleared my mind of it. I sat up and stretched. As I looked around the room, I realized that I was alone and the bed was empty; Cain must have left at some point. I breathed a sigh of relief, thankful I didn’t have to face him yet. I got up from the bed and went to the bathroom to do my morning business.After finishing up in the bathroom, I walked over to the bedroom door and pressed my ear against the cold wood, listening carefully for any voices on the other side. However, there was nothing; everything was silent. I tried to open the door, but it was locked, “What the fuck!” I banged on the door and hollered, but no one came. I truly am a fucking prisoner, I thought to my

Calyx rushed to my side. “Sorry about that, and don’t worry about Eve; she is just a petty, jealous bitch.”I grunted, “Yea, I caught that.” We stepped out the back door and into the yard. As I stood there taking everything in, I noticed a small labyrinth in the center of the yard. There were also beautiful, lush gardens filled with various flowers, fruits, and vegetables within the yard. Finally, to my left, was the small pond and the towering willow tree. I began walking towards the tree; it was so breathtaking. The tree had a swing hanging from it and a small bench next to it. As I approached the tree, I could feel Calyx watching me intently, as if burning a hole in the back of my head. But I ignored it and continued to my destinati

    #Chapter16I began pacing the room, feeling anxious and useless. Whenever something happened back home, I always assisted. My family and pack members were proud of me for the skills and abilities I brought to the pack; it made me feel included and appreciated. Time had been slowly passing since Cain brought me to the dungeon, no one came, and I didn’t hear anything outside the room. I walked to the balcony doors again, gazing around, when once again, I saw the dark figure lurking in the trees. But this time, they stepped out from the shadows, making themselves visible for me to see. It was a tall man; he didn’t appear to be very built, seemed a bit older, with a hint of silver dusting his golden-brown locks. He just stood there staring at me, and a grin spread across his face; I continued to stare back, not moving. I wanted so badly to go out there, to ask him what he wanted and why he was watching me. I heard a noise come from outside the bedroom and turned towards the bedroom

    #Chapter17I flopped backwards on the bed, sucking in a large breath of relief; that moment between us was fucking intense, all of it. What came over me? It was like he was a drug, something I couldn’t get enough of, a high that I wanted to last forever. I wanted Cain to devour me, dominate me, and so much more. Maybe, just maybe, he is my mate?I shook my head of my torturous thoughts, got up from the bed and walked over to the balcony. The door was no longer locked; I didn’t even see him unlock it. Opening the doors, a calming summer night breeze blew throughout the room. I was about to step out onto the balcony when I heard a noise, like someone moving around below the balcony. I stood there listening and looking around. I couldn’t see anyone, but the sound was growing stronger. I kept looking around and listening; just as I was about to step outside to investigate further, suddenly, a large man stood before me. He was much taller than I, not overly bulky, but appeared to be w

After a moment, I began to feel calm and relaxed.I opened my eyes and looked around, realizing I was in what looked like a hospital bed. Machines and other medical equipment surrounded me. I could hear people talking just outside the room; one of the voices sounded like Cain, another sounded like Calyx and the third voice I didn’t recognize. I attempted to sit up, but upon doing so, my head throbbed. I placed my hand to my head, cradling it, and that’s when I felt the large bandage wrapped around my head. The concern over the dressing quickly faded as my head throbbed painfully again. This headache was worse than a hangover. I sat back down and listened to the voices nearby.“She will be fine, Alpha. It’s a nasty bump, but no real damage or anything serious. She will make a full recovery.” A woman’s voice explained. “Good,

    #Chapter171People started to approach, congratulating us and bombarding us with questions. Suddenly, I felt sick to my stomach, and my head felt fuzzy, as my vision doubled. I looked up at Cain. “I need to use the washroom,” I said quickly, then spun on my heel, practically running towards the bathroom. I made it to the bathroom and hurled the contents of my stomach into the cold porcelain toilet. Once I was finished, I stood from the floor and leaned over the sink, steadying myself. I closed my eyes and attempted to regulate my breathing and erratic heart rate. As I opened my eyes again, I was no longer in the bathroom but back in the forest of the damned and standing before the willow tree. I glanced around frantically, wondering what the fuck was going on. Helena appeared out of nowhere, scaring the life out of me and causing me to gasp. “Holy shit! You scared me.” I shouted at her. She raised a brow and gave me a deadpan stare. “Watch that tongue of yours.” Helena scolded m

    #Chapter170Things had been going well for Cain and me since our ceremony. We couldn’t get enough of each other, taking advantage of every opportunity we had to devour one another. Then, the day after our mating, we had Samara and Eve’s funeral, saying our goodbyes and laying them to rest. It was a beautiful farewell; friends and family had gathered around, saying something about the fallen pack members before Cain put them into the ground. Due to their crimes, Cain and I had decided to do things differently regarding a funeral for Calyx, Adela and Erik. Aside from what they had done, they were family and deserved a proper burial. So we decided to bury the trio on the border of both packs and kept things modest, saying a simple goodbye before coating their bodies in soil.As time went on, I slowly learned how things worked around here and adapted to my duties as Luna. Things were a bit rough for a while, but Cain was supportive and guided me through things, being patient with me as

    #Chapter169Violet grabbed my hand before leading me out of the bedroom, through the halls and out the back doors. She abruptly stopped as we exited through the doors. “I need to cover your eyes.” She told me. I furrowed my brows. “Why?” I asked hesitantly. She gave me a warm and comforting smile. “Just trust me.” Violet requested of me, and although I was reluctant, I did trust her. I nodded and allowed her to cover my eyes with her hand, knowing that I would be safe with her. Violet held my hand in hers and guided me through the yard, warning me of any obstacles in my way, so I didn’t trip and make a fool of myself. Not knowing where we were going or what the fuck was going on made me feel quite uneasy. My heart rate increased, my chest rising and falling heavily, as we continued to walk. I huffed in frustration, becoming impatient now. “I don’t like this, you know,” I told Violet honestly, and she chuckled at me. Did she think I was joking?After a few moments, we finally

    #Chapter168His upper lip twitched before his lips curled up and into a smile. Cain entangled his hand within my hair, gripping the strands with his fingers, and he closed the distance between us, capturing my lips with his. Cain lifted me up and off his lap. He laid down on the cool sheets, flat on his back and pulled me into him, wrapping his arm tightly around me as he yanked me closer to him, leaving no space between us. Cain kissed the top of my head, lingering there for a moment. Both of us were comfortable, feeling content in each other's arms as the heavyweight of sleep wrapped around us. This moment almost felt surreal, like everything was a dream. Cain had nearly died, I had almost lost him, and I could’ve died, to be honest, a piece of me did. I got Cain back, but I had lost something that meant just as much to me as he does. I could only hope that she was alright and happy wherever she was. I woke up, and the bed was empty; slight panic stirred within me, as I didn’t

I squeezed my thighs together as the lust for him grew. “Yes, I do,” I whispered, and Cain released a satisfactory growl before nipping my ear. He reared back, then flipped me over and onto my back. Cain straddled me, careful not to put his full weight on me and then ripped my shirt in half. I wasn’t wearing a bra, and he seemed pleased with this, as a smile spread across those plump lips while he cupped my breasts in his hands and rolled my nipples between his thumb and forefinger. Cain stood from the bed and removed what was left of my shirt. He ripped the torn fabric in half again before flipping me back onto my stomach. Then, straddling me once again, Cain tied my hands together with a piece of the shirt before tying the other end to the bed post. My panties were soaked from my juices, as the desire to have him was stronger than ever. Once he was finished tying me, he rubbed his hand

Once he was gone, I laid down on the bed, letting more tears stream down my face again. I screamed internally at the anger and grief that was consuming my mind and body. I sucked in a deep breath, trying to calm myself and decided to have a shower. I got up from the bed and started walking to the bathroom but stopped, my eyes drifting towards the balcony doors. I walked over to the doors, whipping them open and stepped outside. There was a storm brewing in the sky, and it was now raining. I stood there, the rain soaking my body, and I fell to my knees. As I rubbed my hands down my face, feeling more overwhelmed and distraught by the second, I looked to the sky and asked why? Just as I expected, I got no response, no answers, and I felt more lost than I ever have in my life. I closed my eyes and slowly stood to my f

    #Chapter165I peered down at Cain, my eyes taking in his exhausted features. Cain wasn’t wearing a shirt, only a blanket covering him. I slid the blanket down, revealing his once muscular physique and seeing him in such a withering state made my chest ache. My hand glided along his skin, stopping above his heart, and I could feel his weakened heart slowly beat against my palm. I reached down for the powder and opened the bottle before sprinkling the yellow substance onto his chest. Then, just as Helena instructed, I grabbed the moon rock next and placed it on top of the powder, in the center of his chest. I closed my eyes for a beat and sucked in a deep breath, trying to calm my frazzled nerves. Next, I repeated the words she told me. “Death be no more and life come forth,” I said aloud, my voice cracking slightly. I then sat back and watched him curiously. My eyes frantically searched Cain’s statuesque frame for any movement, but there was nothing. His chest began to rise and fal

I closed my eyes and reminded myself of who I was, that I am a fucking warrior. I lifted my arm and elbowed Erik in the stomach, causing him to release me. He stumbled backwards and clutched his stomach, but that only lasted for a second before he stood to his full height again, glaring daggers at me. I looked around the ground and spotted a large, fallen tree branch. I hurriedly picked up the branch and swung it at him furiously. However, Erik found this amusing and started to laugh at my feeble attempt to attack him. I swung at him again, the branch brushing against his chest this time, and his playful expression quickly vanished. Erik leapt forward, coming straight for me, but he didn’t get too far, as suddenly, he was lifted from the ground. Gunnar stood there, black eyes and snarling viciously, as he held Erik by the throat off the g

I dug my hands into the cool earth and backed away from him, but the further I got, the closer he came. Finally, I tried to get up from the ground, and Erik kicked me back down with his boot. I stilled, deciding to stay where I was and instead propped myself up onto my elbows. “What the fuck, Erik?” My tone's anger and the hurt of his betrayal only grew. His upper lip curled into a snarl as he narrowed his eyes. “That cure is coming with me.” He growled out, his tone deep and demanding. I snorted and then gave him a deadpan stare. “Over my dead body.” Even though I was shitting my pants right now, as he had an advantage over me, I refused to let him take what was rightfully mine. I had earned this cure and gave up a piece of myself in the process, just to get it. Erik stepped closer, his feet on either side of my legs now, trapping me in my place, before stopping and sn
