The Chosen One Chapter 8: The shadow in the corner
Mima's POV I woke up with a start as I stood up from the bed. There was a beeping sound in the room and the walls and ceilings were white. I was confused about where I was but after looking down and seeing the numerous tubes attached to me, I remember that I was in the pack clinic.I had sweat gathered on my forehead from the nightmare I had. Seeing my brother die all over again. A tear slipped from my left eye and I raised my bandages hand to clean it. I looked down at myself and noticed that my clothes had been changed. My wounds were bandaged. Basically all of me was covered in bandages. Any small movement I made would make me wince. I was still observing my wounds when someone entered the room. It was a small lady in a white nurse gown. She must be here to check my health. She held a clipboard in her hand and asked how I was doing, giving me a small smile that didn't reach her eyes.She did all she came to do and left. The door opened seconds later and Julia wheeled herself in.

Mima's POV The door creaked open, I barely had time to wipe my tears from my cheeks when Dylan's tall figure appeared in the doorway, his eyes shone with the same cold and sketchy look it always had. I hated how that look made my skin crawl, but it was the only thing I’d ever known from him.“What are you doing here?” I asked, trying to keep my voice steady, it was still a bit shaky from crying. Dylan stepped inside without waiting for an invitation, his boots making a sharp click against the floor. His eyes roamed my body, observing my injuries and lingering for a moment too long before meeting my eyes again. “I came to offer you a deal,” he said, his tone smooth, almost deceptively casual.I frowned, narrowing my eyes. “A deal?”He moved closer, a smirk playing on his lips, as if he was savoring the moment. “Oh poor Mima. I heard all about how Stephanie is treating you. I mean, she must be doing it out of spite that you were my mate. She will continue to torture you as long as you

I finally got discharged from the pack clinic after four days and I went back to my normal life. Julia, the head maid, had been discharged a day before I was. My wounds were almost completely healed and I could move well without crutches. The scars were still there though and once in a while, I would feel aches and pains in my sides. After the night that Dylan came into my room, my wounds slowly started to heal by itself. My Wolf's presence even came out just a little. I could feel her. I wondered what motivated her to come out.I tried to not think that it was Dylan, because why would she come out for the one that rejected her? I sometimes spoke to her even though she never replied or gave me a sign that she was listening. I limped to my room when I felt my hair dragged and I almost fell backwards as I stumbled. I didn't need a soothsayer to tell me who I had just encountered. I turned around and there she was, Stephanie looking at me with red eyes, puffy eyes. She looked as if sh

Zahra.What was she doing here? She told me that she was being experimented on in the—Wait. Is this what this is about? Are these experimented individuals from the pack's lab? But what is Stephanie planning to do with them? Is she planning to sell them to these sketchy men?What kind of experiments did they practice on them?My mind swirled with many unanswered questions. The men started raising their hands to point at any of the lined up people. There were 10 in total and Zahra was the 9th person. She must have not noticed me yet because she looked ahead at Stephanie, her face in a scrowl. I closed my eyes and prayed fervently in my heart that Zahra shouldn't get chosen but once again, luck wasn't on my side. The shortest of the men turned to her side and stared for a long while before pointing at her to be chosen. All eyes in the room turned to Zahra and she looked like she was about to make a scene. Oh no. She still hadn't noticed me. Stephanie smiled as the men chose 7 out of

Mima's POVI peeked out of my room, heart pounding in my chest, and scanned the hallway. It was empty. Thank the goddess. This might actually work.Gripping the strap of my bag, I stepped carefully into the corridor. I had packed everything I thought I’d need, a few knives stolen from the kitchen, a pair of pliers I’d stumbled upon near the woodshed at the back of the haid maids building, and a scarf to hide my face in case anybody recognises me. The tools clanked softly as I moved, the sound amplified in the stillness of the hallway.I pulled the scarf tighter around my head as I approached the door leading outside. I should hurry before anyone realises that I am missing. I had made sure to create an alibi. I had told one of the head maids that I felt like I had contracted a contagious illness and even went through the trouble of faking a vomit. She had told me to keep myself locked in my room all day and not come out till I am better. The cool air bit at my face as I pressed onward

Mima's POV The growl stopped suddenly, replaced by the soft click of a torch. I flinched as the beam of light hit my face, momentarily blinding me. My chest heaved, my breaths coming in shallow gasps."You're late," came a familiar voice, dry and edged with sarcasm.I blinked against the glare, my eyes adjusting to the light. The figure in front of me lowered the torch slightly, and I froze.“Zahra?”Her face came into view, thin and pale, but unmistakably hers. Relief washed over me so quickly my knees buckled, and I stumbled forward, throwing myself into her arms.“You’re still here!” I choked out, my voice muffled against her shoulder. Tears streamed freely, and I felt Zahra’s arms tighten around me, trembling.“So are you, I see you're healed better now,” she whispered, her voice breaking. “But what are you doing here, Mima? Are you insane?”I pulled back slightly, looking her in the eyes, and wiped at my tears with shaking hands. “I’m here to help you escape. I couldn’t leave yo

Mima's POV I was successfully able to sneak back into my room without anybody noticing me. Hopefully though…I fall on my bed and let out a sigh that I have been holding all through my run here. Zahra… I hope she finds somewhere safe. The days exhaustion finally gets to me and I fall asleep. For the first time since I got here, I sleep well.I woke up to banging at my door. I suspected it to be because of Zahra's disappearance. When my door is busted open and three guards walk in with Stephanie, my suspicions are affirmed. “Seize her and take her to the dungeon” Stephanie barked out orders to the guards. I don't bother to resist as doing so wouldn't help matters.Maids from every room come out to watch me be dragged off and whispers began to flood the hallway. The cell I was thrown into was the same from last time. The only difference was that this time, I wasn't chained with silver. I was just left to sit on the dirty floor. Few hours later, Dylan and Stephanie walked into my ce

Mima's POV I sat in bed in the dead of the night tending to my wounds. I had cuts and bruises on my hands, but my face had more injuries. I dabbed on the cuts with a spirit filled Cotton wool. I winced as the cool substance came in contact with my wounds. I had looked at myself in the mirror earlier and it was a terrible sight to see.My left eye was swollen and had a blue-black colour, I had a cut on my lower lip, I had bruised cheeks from the number of slaps I received. I looked like an overused object that had been tossed aside after expiring its usefulness.I hated everything.I took out the bandage that was in my restocked first aid kit, courtesy of Julia. Madam Julia…I needed to check up on her if she was doing well. She could have also been interrogated as she had helped me earlier while I was in chains in the dungeon. I had wrapped myself up in a way that I had deemed to be good enough. I stood up from my bed and took a look outside my room window. My room was situated i

The Chosen One Chapter 108: WELCOMING THE PACKS.
Mima's POV I watched her turn the corner and I did too.“Ria, stop. Now!” I yelled at her but she doesn't stop. Instead. She increased her speed. She ran out of the dungeons Andi's almost out when I'm close and grab her hair in my hands and pulling her back.She stumbled backwards falling on to me as we both fell down the stairs. “Fuck.” I quickly caught my footing and stabilised myself, pulling her towards me and stoping our fall.“Well, well, well. Look who it is.” I said, staring down at her while trying to catch my breath. “I am not saying anything.” She blurted out, trying to escape from the strong grip that I had her in.“We'll see about that.” I spat and she turned her face away from mine.“Where is Kian?” I asked her and I noticednher expression shifting as her eyes glazes over. Is she pulling an act in front of me? She refused to answer my question as she just stood there with sad eyes and not bothering to struggle anymore against my hold. What has gotten into her? Zah
The Chosen One Chapter 107: YOUR END IS NEAR
Mima's POV “Don't be scared.” I told her, holding her hand. She nodded and visibly relaxed. “he didn't stop no matter how much I begged him to. He said that they needed my expertise but I didn't even understand what he meant by them.” I rubbed circles in her shoulder. “What more did he say?”“He had been coming on to me before that. Telling me how I'm doing a good job for someone my age in that field and he joked once about me being his mate but I didn't pay attention to him. One day, he just came close to me and said since I wouldn't accept willingly, he'd have you force me.”Tears fell from her eyes and I pulled her in for a hug. She shook and shivered under me and I thought if I could do the same thing that I did to Rake to her too. But was it really the same thing? Could I heal someone with a shadow inside of them? My mind went back to Sir Adams and maybe I just can.“Olivia. There's something I want to try, okay? Don't be scared.” She looked puzzled and nodded her head. I
The Chosen One Chapter 106: RECOGNITION, FINALLY
Mima’s POVThe circle formed fast. Word had already traveled that Luna was about to fight one of the senior warriors, and everyone, trainees, guards, advisors, gathered to watch.I could feel their gazes on me. Some were doubtful. Others, curious. A few looked amused.Let them watch.I peeled off my jacket, leaving only my compression top on and stepped into the ring. For training with Kia, I had worn boots and fitted cargo pants but guess it'll come handy today.My opponen cracked his knuckles and bounced on his heels like this was just another training spar.“You sure about this, Luna?” he asked, flashing a grin that didn’t quite reach his eyes.I tilted my head. “You already underestimated me once. Are you sure you’re ready?”That wiped the smirk off his face.Zahra stood to the side, arms folded, clearly enjoying this a little too much. Rake had joined her, his jaw clenched but saying nothing. I could feel his eyes locked on me and telling me to back out that he'd handle it but I
The Chosen One Chapter 105: A FLUNG BOTTLE.
Mima's POV "So what do we do now?" Rake asked."We find a way to help Olivia and we look for Julia and then the weed out other moles."He nodded and took my hands in his. "Learn to take it easy though. Don't be too harsh on yourself." I raised myself to his cheek and gave him a peck. I jumped out of bed and was almost out the door when I stopped."It's almost time for the pack meetings. We'll be the ones hosting this time. Maybe we can convince the others to work with us and fight them. They can't possibly have a hold on all the packs by now right?" I said to him.He looked in thought for a while before he smiled and nodded "I expect nothing less of my mate. Smart idea." I blushed at his compliment and the way he stared at me and I ran out of the room."Zahra." "Mima."We nodded to each other and just stared for a while before we burst out laughing and hugged. "Ready for another day of training Kia on what we don't know shit about?" She said and I laughed."I'm ready." We walked
The Chosen One Chapter 104: THE BLACK PENDANT’S REVEAL
Mima’s POVThe pain in my back stung, but I pushed it aside. Olivia stood in front of me, shaking like a leaf. Her eyes weren’t just wide with fear, they looked troubled.“Olivia…” I started, gently pushing myself off the bed. “I didn’t mean to—”She shook her head rapidly, backing up until her back hit the wall. “There was something in your hand. You were holding something in your hand!” She screamed at me.I looked at her confused and raised the pendant. “You mean this?” Her face morphed to that of horror.“That thing. That pendant. Don’t bring it near me again,” she said, her voice trembling, every word soaked in dread.I looked at the pendant in my hand. I stood up and walked to the other side of the room and I quickly tucked it back into the drawer and moved slowly toward Olivia, keeping my hands in view.“I’m sorry. I didn’t know it would hurt you,” I said softly.She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm herself. After a few long seconds, she nodded and opened
The Chosen One Chapter 103: THE SUSPICIOUS NURSE
Mima's POV Julia was missing? Rake turned to face with a slight frown on his face. He didn't look too pleased by the news either and he looked as though he didn't want me to find out. He rushed to me and pulled me in for a hug, patting my head.“It's not your fault.” He whispered in my ear.How did he know that I was blaming myself? I mean, if I had come here instead of being numb from what I saw, maybe she would still be here and whoever took her wouldn't have.Maybe–Rake hugged me tighter and said it over and over how it wasn't my fault. I relaxed in his arms and let him hold me. It wasn't my fault. I told myself. I pulled away from him to see that everyone in the room was staring at us and my cheeks tinged pink. I cleared my throat and walked over to the doctor. “What happened?” I asked him with a stern voice. The doctor couldn't possibly be a shadow right? If he was he could have killed Rake when he was sick but he tried everything he could to help so he couldn't possibly b
The Chosen One Chapter 102: MISSING
Rake's POV I placed Mima on the bed and kissed her forehead. It took a lot to put her to sleep after what she had just witnessed. There is a lot on her shoulders and it hurts me so much that I can't help her to release her burden. She's the only one that can help to identify the shadows with the powers that she has and I feel so useless as the Alpha and her mate to do nothing but just watch from the sidelines. I gently removed her hair from her face and stared at her. She turned but she didn't wake up from her sleep. Someone knocked at the door so I stood up immediately to answer it. “Yes?” “Alpha, the body has been buried. I came to report that the laboratory has a report that Luna requested and there is a woman by the name of Olivia waiting in front of your office.” I sent him off and he bowed before walking away.I turned back to Mima and kissed her on the forehead again and then touched the necklace that I gave her.–I got to my office and walked in, taking the papers from
The Chosen One Chapter 101: FEELING NUMB
Mima's POV I walked inside Rake's office and took my seat. He went to check up on the trainings of the soldiers so I was alone. I was arranginging some documents on the information concerning the weaponry and the other units that I was yet to visit. Going from one unit to the other was extremely tiring and I had no strength to walk around and still train Kia which by the way we have made Zero progress.I dumped the papers and rubbed my temples when the door burst open and Kia ran in towards me. I smiled and stretched out my hands, welcoming him into my embrace.“Mima!” He squealed excitedly at me. I ruffled his hair and pulled him up to sit on my lap. He had a book with him and he flipped the pages, reading them as I went back to work.A while passed and a knock sounded on the door. “Come in.” Safire walked in with some papers in her hands and she looked afraid? What happened? She placed the papers on the table and stood away without taking a seat.“Take a seat.” I told her an
The Chosen One Chapter 100: SIR EDEN
Mima's POV I turned around to see Rake staring down at me with a smile on his face. “What are you doing here?” He asked. I smiled at him and then gestured for him to lower his head. “I'm trying to weed out the shadows in every unit. I'll tell you what I've discovered so far later, but for now we have a more serious issue.” I whispered in his ear. Rake frowned and then pulled out a chair to seat on. He turned to me, giving me his full attention.“Tell me.”“Look around and tell me what you notice.” Rake looked around and immediately there was a frown on his face. He must have not caught on to what was going on around because he was focused on me. “What the hell is going on here?” He whispered yelled making some heads turn to us.“Why are they eating in their workspace? Don't they have a cafeteria to cater to that? This is highly dangerous, eating in the presence of where toxic materials are.” He said to me and I nodded. “That's exactly what I thought too. Immediately I saw all
