Author's POV...

Selena stared at Kara in utmost disgust; she was toiling the ground like there were no bones in her arms. She hadn't thought much about her presence in the packhouse before, but one look at her reminded Selena of all the bad things Kara had done to not just her but Alexa, too. For someone like Kara, it would have been really unfair if she escaped karma.

She had woken up on the wrong side of the bed, angry at Simon for not trying hard enough to resolve the misunderstanding between them. It prompted Selena to rage at anyone who stumbles through her path. Luckily, Kara seems like the right person to leech on. The sound of the lunch bell rang loudly, notifying the slaves to take a break.

Kara dropped the tool with her and dusted her dirty hands on her shabby clothes with a look of relief and eagerness on her face. Selena hurried towards her, blocking her way.

"Where do you think you are going with that mess you created?"

Looking back at the obvious mess, Kara gulped hard. "

    Simon's POV...Yawning tiredly, I flexed my arms, staring out the hallway window that oversees the farm. I feel so burdened. A lot has been on my mind, but I have been too preoccupied to pay attention just yet. I have missed days of keeping a close eye on Kara to be sure she isn't planning anything dubious. Most important is Selena; since she walked out on me, we haven't been able to talk. Not because I didn't want to, but an important pack duty came up, and it's my place to attend to it."I can't believe it took us this plenty of days to sign a treaty," Logan grunted beside me, exhaling. "I miss spending time with Alexa and Alvin.""You seem to have a lot of free time on your hands since you got married, leaving all the work to me. I'm glad you couldn't escape this one.""It's why I have as a Beta." He winked.I snorted out a laugh, shaking my head. "You are so unrepentant.""How is she doing?"I didn't need to ask who he was referring to. "I haven't had much time to watch her moves.

    Kara's POV...Opening the door to my room felt like heaven. My legs shook hard from bending it all day long. I wonder what got Selena to let me off, just like the rest of the slaves. Even though Logan had been the one to ask all slaves to take the rest of the day off, she would have asked me to stay back and toil till the sun went down, keeping to her promise to make me pay for all that I did. I haven't had a straight meal in the last couple of days, and it feels like my strength is waning.Surprisingly, the guards told me to take a break, too. I didn't bother to source for food and came back to my room instead. Laying down on the bed, tears trickled down my face. Life has been unbearable for me since I got into this pack. I don't know if it would have worked out better for me in the woods than here. No one wants to see me near them. They avoid me like a plague.

    Simon's POV...I don't know why I came down to this part of the floor, but seeing Kara move with such extreme determination had me curious. I was surprised to see her go into her old room. Quickening my step, I opened the door, and right there, by the drawer next to the bed, Kara had a little brown medicine bottle in hand, unscrewing the cap to consume whatever was inside."What the hell do you think you are doing?" I yelled, taking large strides to reach her. "Is this wolfsbane?" I inquired, slapping the bottle away from her hand."What are you doing?" She bellowed, stomping her feet."I should be the one to ask that question. Have you gone mad? Were you planning to kill yourself?""What does it matter to you? If I die, I am sure everyone would be glad."

  • The Beta's Unexpected Mate    Chapter 19

    Kara's POV...My heart thumped loudly as I ran back to my temporary room. My days are numbered anyway, so I might as well just take in the solace it would give in the meantime. I hate Simon so much; he is the reason this torture I am about to experience will reign for a long time. How did I not notice someone was behind me? If I knew, it would have given me enough time to prepare myself and avoid him.If I had taken the wolfsbane just a few seconds before he made an entrance, I would be halfway to the heavens. I believe now that my father was mistaken. There is nothing to look out for here. How is it possible that Alexa went through more pain than I have experienced in the last few months? She probably did go through hell. My different attempts to end her life are enough to tell how hellish this place must have been.I feel lifeless; with Amaya choosing silence,

    Author's POV...Selena took a moment to take in the sight of Kara struggling against the ground to stand up. Turning her face away, she nodded towards the farmer."What's the report you have on the slaves? Have they all been doing their portion?" She asked, taking down notes on the pad she held.The greying-haired farmer cleared his throat, standing upright, "They have all been doing fine except for Kara. I am sorry to say this, Lady Selena, but she is practically useless around here. She can't clear the weeds right or prepare land for planting. All of her attempts look like an intentional foil. But I just realized that she can't really do much as expected. I don't think the farm is where she belongs. If this isn't too much to add, her presence here is a waste of time; she never should have been brought."Selena glanced back at Kara again; she indeed lo

  • The Beta's Unexpected Mate    Chapter 21

    Kara's POV...Simon kept to his threat to ask me out of the room. Now that I am back with the three terrorists in my life, I am at a crossroads on how to live. The only comforting thing for me right now is knowing I am never going back to the farm to work. I don't care how many floors or walls I have to wash as I get away from the scorching sun and also get to eat separately from the bullies. The in-house slaves don't get to eat with the farm workers.Clutching my cover cloth and an almost tattered extra work wear tightly to my chest, I opened the room door slowly. Simon had insisted I don't spend another night in the former room. I wish I could bite his ear off, but it would be a waste of strength. Only one of the slaves was inside the room. I don't know why, but it brought relief to my heart. It was the vicious, quiet one, but she seemed disinterested in whatever I was doing.

    Kara's POV..."Must be nice to be considered to leave farm work." My roommate with the brown hair snorted at me.I have only just started working within the main house, and it appears I have gathered more enemies than intended. My devilish roommates seem to have found more reason to hate on me. Ignoring them, I changed into my working uniform to get to work."Are you deaf!" Another screamed, tossing a bucket of cold water at my back.I shivered terribly at the effect; it felt like tiny shards of broken bottles on my body. Amaya growled angrily; I clenched my fist, feeling my insides tighten. There is no way I will let this slide, not this time. I am tired of letting myself get bullied all in a bid to hide my head. It's the reason I have allowed their stupid acts to pass off. One thing I know for sure is if I don't fight f

  • The Beta's Unexpected Mate    Chapter 23

    Kara's POV...I was anxious all through the time I returned to my room. I might have been harboring silly wishes before now, but I am genuinely worried about Alexa. If anything happens to her, they might probably blame me. I don't want to be faulted for something I know nothing about. She has to survive, if not for anything but for my sake.I had almost forgotten about my confrontation with my doomed roommates earlier today. When they returned to the room, they all minded their business, almost like I didn't exist. And it makes me feel good knowing I can stand against my bullies. I know I have done many wrong things in the past, but that doesn't exempt other people. Just because mine is more profound shouldn't automatically mean everyone else is a saint.It was time for dinner; I was famished after missing lunch. Everyone seemed to be in a really good mood when I entered the dining hall. Sin

    Kara's POVMy eyes stirred and I opened them to see where I am. The floor of the cold cell isn't this comfy, I thought to myself as I tried to remember what happened to me. I remember being dragged out of the cell, but I was too weak to know where they were taking me to. Carl probably had a rethink. I sat up and looked around again. This isn't the room that I stayed in at Carl's pack house. Neither is this Carl's room. It took me a moment to realize where I am. This can't be. How did I return to the Red Lotus pack? Did they bring me back to punish me? Just when I thought Carl's punishment will be the death of me. Here I am again, back to where I started from. Tears welled up in my eyes as fear enveloped me. If I knew I was going to get caught again this easily, I would have just stayed back to get punished appropriately and not have myself be humiliated by Carl. My hand caressed the spot where the vase scarred me. The wound has been attended to. I wonder what they all have going

    Simon's POVI was ready to cause a lot of trouble the minute I arrived the Crescent Moon pack, just incase I am not allowed to enter. Keeping my raging nerves in check as I got led to meet Carl, I tried not to show my intentions on my face. I couldn't stop thinking of the condition Kara might be in. She has really lost her mind to think coming to Carl is the best option she has. I feel hurt and disappointed at the same time. But for now, I don't care about all that. All I need right now is for her to be safe. It will make me feel at peace the most. Carl had a snide smirk on his face the minute I stepped into his meeting hall. "To what do I owe this noncommittal visit, Beta Simon?" He inquired. "I am here for Kara." I stated"I am guessing you are the father of the bastard." He mumbled with an obvious disgust on his face. I stood my ground, unflinching at his intimidating glare. "Where is Kara, Alpha Carl? You know better to have sent her back to the Red Lotus pack when she cam

    Kara's POVMy body felt like it would break into pieces. I finally got dressed after battling with drowsiness for so many hours. Carl returned yesterday and I have been prepped to become his concubine. For the past few days that I have been here, I have had the most conflicted string of thoughts. Many times I thought of swallowing my shame and return to the Red Lotus pack, most importantly to Simon. I miss him so much it hurts. But then, I had to consider my child's life. Becoming the talk of the pack because of something his or her mother did, will be an unfair life for such child. That had prompted me to maintain my resolve and endure whatever it is Carl died to me. It will all be worth it in the next few months. I might be able to really escape after gathering enough money to settle in a far away pack with my child. It won't be long. I hate that this is the only possible solution for me. What kind of mother am I? Truth be told, I have never thought of the life I would lead if

  • The Beta's Unexpected Mate    Chapter 106

    Author's POVLogan had an amused expression on his face when he entered the room to find a naked Alexa on the bed with her legs spread out waiting for him. He pulled at his shirt while holding her gaze. "Is there an occasion?" He inquired in a low tone. Alexa flipped her loose hair to the back as she crawled towards the edge of the bed. "I don't know, you tell me." She cooed seductively, wetting her lips. He gulped hard at the sight, it's been a while since he shared an intimate moment with her. They always get distracted by their new born. It's either that or Alexa feels too exhausted and he has to comply with her needs. Seeing her in her full glory after what he considers and excruciatingly long period of time. It makes his wolf very excited. "Come." She urged, motioning to him with her finger. Logan walked to the foot of the bed and stood still when she placed a palm on his bare chest to stop him. Alexa worked her way down to his trouser and pulled it down his dick spran

    Author's POV Selena exhaled for the umpteenth time since she sat by the bath. Alexa had asked that she join her to bath her new born. Alexa knew she hadn't been herself for days and thought making her do something different will cheer her up. Instead, Selena has kept to herself and only smiling weakly at the baby from time to time. "You will end up looking too old for your age if you continue like this." Alexa threw a light joke. She hissed, "of what use is my youthful look when I can't get a man to love me." "Why are you sounding so dejected for crying out loud, Selena. I have told you time and time again that it's not your fault. And you aren't unfortunate just because this happened." "You say it like I really want to sulk all day. I can't get rid of the thoughts. It's always coming. I also want to break free from it, but I can't. I wish it didn't have to turn out like this. Probably if he had told me earlier, I would have gotten over it by

    Kara's POV My life right now is the exact illustration for back to square one. I remember how I had walked in here sometime ago and stood in the same hall with Carl showing himself off like the unattractive pig that he is. I can only hope my mind portal isn't opened and all my thoughts are out. Carl wouldn't hesitate to have my head chopped off to prove a point. I swallowed hard, holding up his gaze while trying hard to put on a smile. Carl had a devilish grin on his face. "What do we have here? How long has it been again? A year or two? You look better than the last time I saw you. Have you been feeding on blood?" He mocked. I swallowed whatever little pride remaining in me. I have already been humbled by life, it's time to throw it all in. "Well, it's been an adventure. I returned to the Red Lotus pack...." "What?" He didn't let me finish before blurting out like the bloody moron he is. "How can you be so cruel? You just had to go back. So did you g

    Kara's POV...This is the most dangerous decision I have ever attempted in my life. The safety that I am so keen on that I might not get at the Red Lotus pack. There is no assurance that I will get it at this supposed destination of mine. However, it felt like a good option an hour ago. It's been over a year since I returned to that packhouse that I have known all my life. In truth, it never felt like home until recently. I thought I had a place there, but I was wrong. I have cried so much that I don't have the strength to cry anymore.Thankfully I was able to get water to carry with me in my travel and some bread that I had sneaked in by Diana. She didn't know what I was planning to do at all. I had gone to the kitchen to tell her of my cravings. She appeared very delighted to give it to me. I hope she didn't get caught and be accused of stealing. I wish I had the luxury of time to thank her for being a shoulder to lean on when no one wanted to be associated with me. I

    Simon's POV...I try not to think of anything negative and just consider that she might be in the garden or around the pack house somewhere. She can't possibly leave. Why would Kara leave?"What if she did?" Kai interjected.I swallowed hard, and just then, my eyes caught sight of the paper on the bed. My heart thumped crazily as I walked towards it with caution. I picked it up with shaky hands like I could already tell what was in it. Clearing my throat, I stared at the letters. Kara has fine penmanship, but that isn't what matters right now. She wrote;"Dear Simon, I know by the time you see this, I would have been long gone. That is, if you ever see it. I think I have caused more than enough trouble as it is. I promised myself when I returned to the pack house that I would do better as a person. However, it turns out life played me. Forget that anything happened between us. Please take care of Selena; she doesn't deserve to be treated this way. Guilt wouldn'

    Simon's POV...My distorted state of mind didn't make me pay attention to what's in front of me. I unintentionally bumped into Luscious. I blinked rapidly at the sight of him. Apparently, Selena had been quite loud yesterday when she was raining curses on Kara. Everyone in the pack house knows now whose child Kara is carrying. It's not like it bothers me much. I just didn't expect that it would turn out this way. I squared my shoulder for what was to come and held Luscious's gaze. A punch, maybe, or a string of curses."Congratulations." He said to me with no hint of emotion in his eyes. I swallowed, not saying anything. "You know, I have always wondered why you were so against my relationship with her. You had your eyes on her and made sure to change her mind. Not only did you hurt her, you hurt Selena too. I should probably punch you in the face, but then that would be a waste of energy. I wanted to believe Kara had hurt me spitefully and lived up to her past reputatio
