Alpha Orion's povMy juice was about to come out so I made a light push on her head back at once, which prompted her to stop and she withdrew from it. "Yeah, I couldn't wait less for this moment." I said as the juice started coming out. I yanked her head forward again, pouring and spreading the juice on her face evenly while she chuckled. ……… In the morning, I stood up hurriedly from the bed, rushing into the restroom and as I got out, I found her small body on the bed, squeezed up like a child. She was actually like a child who was cold. I carried the bedsheets up, covering it properly in her small body above. She started turning, changing positions. I hissed, walking out of her. She awoke but didn't see what I did earlier. And I thanked the Moon Goddess for that. She stood up hurriedly and moved away from me, picking up her dress shyly from the ground and heading to the door without a second thought. "Wait!" I commanded and she paused in her steps. "Where do you think you
Alpha Orion's povThere were also some goods left close to them, it seemed like these ones weren't able to enter the small boats they carried. I started moving closer to them, my fist still strong by my side, they moved backwards seeing how hardened my face was. "You dare steal from my pack and kill my driver?""No Alpha Orion! No please!" I didn't care. You all must die in my bare hands today whether you like it or not. I am not going to let any one of you leave this place."Run along!" I screamed with a loud voice, echoing throughout the forest. They started running, some turning backwards to see me. Oin quickly overtook me and I roared as my body started making some cracking sounds, my claws jumping out and before I knew it, I was standing on four feet. My senses had already heightened so at first hint, I caught the scent of them and moved closer. They hid under a rock which as I lifted it up, they gasped, frightened and shaking. I yanked one up with his head, holding him like
Anita's pov. I usually feel like comparing my suffering and stress in this pack to that of Ethan's and the more I compare, the more I detest from doing so because the stress was incomparable. I feel like I have inherited battles from Ethan's pack to this. Unending problems and battles. The people from the slave quarters couldn't even see me as one of them, they just started hating and abusing me. That night with Alpha Orion sparked something within me as he wanted to fuck me. I was thinking he would penetrate but he didn't. When he asked about my bruises, I was confused because I didn't think of him being so nice to care about my wounds. Actually, those were parts of the kind of punishments I got from.I usually wondered why Alpha Orion didn't fuck me that night he wanted to, maybe because he doesn't like the way I am or was it because of pity? I doubt it. With his brutal nature, I do not think he would spare a glance at any fly that perched on him. But with the way he behaved ma
Anita's povMy eyes weren't able to capture anyone around. Even as I turned around every minute, no one was there. I jumped up to the tree, cutting a branch from the tree which I could use as a protection and shield in case it was a sent assassin to kill me. I moved away from the tree and started entering into the bush to find the person trying to spy on me. After searching for what seemed like two hours, I became exhausted. Maybe someone had been sent to kill me here while I was sleeping. I thanked the Moon Goddess that at least I was able to hear the sounds of his footsteps. Now, I won't come here any longer before something bad happens to me. I trailed out of the hills with speed in my steps, entering into the slave quarters panting. Madam Betty wasn't around when I got in. My eyes were scanning the hall for her. Then, I walked to my cell, snailing into it like a rat. Thankfully, she wasn't around. I laid on the flat foam which was placed on the ground, squeezing myself up like
Alpha Orion's povLeaving Anita in the garden yesterday without her seeing me was like a great miracle. My heart skipped a beat when I saw her eyes in my direction. Thankfully, Oin, my wolf was not asleep. He quickly made me invisible and I teleported back to my chambers. In my chambers, I couldn't help but think about her throughout the night. I could remember when I felt her in sorrow a few days ago through some sort of mind-linking with her. I was surprised when that happened because I hadn't marked her as my mate then but that damn thing was happening, but quickly, I teleported to where Oin led me to, that was to the slave quarters. She was lying half dead on the floor. All her bodies were badly injured and cold. I was shocked and a part of me pitied her little body there and it was midnight already. I wondered what she had done to the slave mistress, madam Betty, for her to punish her this way. She was also locked outside, in the playground, under the cold dew. I looked arou
Anita's povI could feel his eyes, still lingering on mine. He was actually looking at me, waiting for me to return mine to him but I did not. Instead, I turned my face to another direction and it quickly caught up with a face which I tried to recall. She looked like someone I had met before, like I had met her somewhere. Her eyes met with that of Alpha Orion's and I could see the disgusted look she gave to him. Without saying much, you could tell she was having a feud with him and from the onlook of things, Alpha Orion was trying to wave at her but she ignored him completely. When her eyes met mine, she was startled. Her eyes widened in a shock which I didn't know why it did, then she returned it back to normal, still maintaining eye contact with me. I, too, didn't know what she saw in me. I only know I have seen a face like this before but could not recall where exactly I saw her. We stood there, staring at each other and that made other slaves stop their duties, standing up to
Anita's pov"Hi, Anita," She said with a smile across her lips. "Hello" I retorted faintly, trying to recall her face if I had met with her anywhere. But no, I haven't. "Adjust a little please." She said, and I made a quick shift for her. She sat on the lawn, close to me. "So what's up?" I said, looking at her. "Yeah. I saw when you were taking the water to the drum, you are really hard working." She remarked. Smiles spread across my lips as she complimented me. I was happy to hear such from her. For a very long time, no one had ever complimented my hard work, even a bit, no one had. It was just complaints that always filled the air which I had gotten used to. If any one wanted to make a compliment, they were always filled with grumbles and gritting of teeth, which barely happened by the way. She took my hand into hers and started playing with it, "I have always admired your resilience in this pack, I was wondering if we could be—" Before she could finish her statement, a guar
Anita's povI felt one of them, entering into the hole, deep inside and he started hitting into it, going in and out. Then, he added another finger, making it two in the hole. I gasped. This was another fire added to my bosom. My other hand that was on his back became tight, my fingers strongly attached to his skin, I raced it down, deep down as my emotions intensified. Still fucking my cunt, he brought his hand out of the hole, transferring it to my mouth like someone sharing a candy stick,"Lick it!" He commanded and without wasting time, I rushed it, devouring every juice that was dripping out of it. My lips went up and down his finger while my eyes remained fixed on him. He groaned, "Now, let me have a taste of you!"There, he yanked me up, slamming me on the bed. I turned up, wanting to regain balance but he dragged me to himself, his hands on my waist, turned me to the back side and dragged my waist to his laps.Oh! What does he want to do right now? He took my right hand,
Alpha Orion povMy mind reeled from the events unfolding around me, the realization that Luna Nora was capable of such darkness pressing down on me like a weight I couldn’t shake. But I couldn't afford to let that weight pin me down. I had one mission—find Anita. Whatever it took, wherever she was, I would bring her back. The tangled webs Luna Nora had woven would have to wait. Right now, my heart and mind had only one target.I sat on my bed for a moment, the silence thick as I ran my hands through my hair. "How would I find her? She said she might go missing, but I never expected it to happen so suddenly," I murmured, frustration clawing at me.Then a thought struck me—her scent. My wolf surged to life, knowing that if anything could lead me to her, it would be the bond we shared. Rising, I left my room, moving with purpose toward the garage. My Beta trailed behind, as steady and loyal as ever, and I could feel Luna Nora’s gaze watching from the shadows, the corners of her mouth cur
Alpha Orion povDespite my best efforts, sleep remained a distant memory, evading me like a ghost in the night. No matter how tightly I closed my eyes, the unsettling feeling lingered. Frustration built as I glanced at the clock—just past midnight. An unfamiliar dread gnawed at me, and I had no explanation for it.Taking a deep breath, I forced myself to relax, telling myself that everything was fine, that I could rest easy. But my wolf stirred, an urgent instinct pushing me up from the bed. I paced to the window, throwing it open to breathe in the crisp night air. And then I caught it—a faint trace of Anita's scent. It was like a whisper, but it drew me in, rekindling a longing that I tried so hard to suppress. I missed her more than I’d ever allow myself to admit.Clenching the windowsill, I held back the desire to storm to her room, to see her, to reassure myself that she was there and safe. No, I have to control this. She needed to know that my love for her went beyond any physica
Darius povThere was something off about the way Maya looked at me earlier. The nervous glances, the way Anita seemed wary when Maya entered the room… They were hiding something. I felt it in my bones, and it was only a matter of time before I found out what.I headed down the hall and knocked on my mother’s door, feeling my own frustration simmering beneath the surface. She opened it quickly, her expression frantic, her movements erratic as she tossed books and papers aside, clearly searching for something. I locked the door behind me, hoping to give her a sense of privacy, though the sight of her disarrayed room sent a spike of worry through me.She looked at me, her face pale and eyes wide with fear, almost as if she were on the brink of tears. “Darius… someone’s betrayed us,” she whispered, her voice shaking. “Someone was listening. They’ve taken my diary—my diary, Darius. All my secrets, all our plans, everything is in there. If Alpha Orion gets his hands on it, everything we’ve
Anita povAfter warning Orion, I knew I had done all I could. The decision to believe me rested with him, and for now, I would let him handle things as he saw fit. As much as I longed for his touch, his closeness, and the warmth we once shared, his focus was elsewhere, consumed by the demands of his pack. I couldn’t bear to add to his burdens. So, I returned to my chambers, determined to give him space, even though it tore at my heart.I waited restlessly for Maya’s return. Evening began to settle, and finally, I heard that Darius, Luna Nora, and Maya had arrived back at the palace. No one else seemed to think much of it, but every instinct in me was on high alert. I knew Maya was taking dangerous risks to help me, and I needed to ensure she remained safe. She’d promised to pass along Luna Nora’s diary code and any final information about their plans to eliminate Orion. But as the minutes dragged on, doubt gnawed at me. It had been hours since they’d returned, and still, Maya hadn’t c
Anita povThe palace was eerily quiet. It seemed everyone had somewhere else to be today. Even Maya was gone, having followed Darius and Luna Nora out on some mysterious errand. Alpha Orion, too, was occupied. His Beta had returned with what I imagined was critical news, leaving him tied up in urgent matters. For once, I found myself truly alone, with no one to talk to and nothing to occupy my mind but restless thoughts.I sighed, making my way to the dining hall. Sitting down to lunch, I couldn’t shake the pang of unease that had lingered since morning. As I picked at my food, my phone buzzed with a new message. It was from Maya. I opened it quickly, feeling a strange thrill of both dread and curiosity. Maya had told me plenty of secrets before, but something felt different about this.The message read: “Warn Alpha Orion. His life is in danger this week. And… Anita, they’re planning to kidnap you. Darius has arranged it, and it will happen in two days.”I felt my heart skip, the bloo
Maya povAs I sat quietly in the carriage, my mind raced with plans and calculations. I’d uncovered Darius's intentions, yet the real challenge would be trying to unravel his plan, to find some way to divert him from his path. I took a deep breath, rehearsing the words that I hoped would plant seeds of doubt in his mind. This had to work.“Darius, have you thought about the consequences of kidnapping Anita?” I began, my voice careful and measured. “The bond she shares with Alpha Orion is still incredibly strong. Her inner wolf could easily reach out to him, revealing her location, or he might even be able to sniff her out with time. That’s the thing about mate bonds… they’re stronger than most realize.”Darius's hands gripped the steering wheel, his fingers drumming in agitation as I spoke. I watched his jaw tighten, frustration flashing in his eyes. He turned to me sharply, a bitter smile tugging at his lips. "Do you think I haven’t considered that? I’ve already made preparations. I
Maya povI pressed myself against the wall outside Luna Nora’s chambers, heart pounding as I strained to hear every word that passed between her and Alpha Darius. My breaths came shallow and quick, barely keeping pace with the shock that coursed through me as their conversation unfolded. Darius had finally reached the edge, and from the sound of it, he was ready to plunge into the abyss, dragging anyone in his path down with him. I gritted my teeth, swallowing down the fear that bubbled up. Anita wouldn’t last long under this relentless hatred; in fact, I wasn’t even sure she’d survive the week.I clapped a hand over my mouth, stifling a gasp that threatened to escape, glancing around to ensure no one saw me. Fortunately, the layout of Luna Nora’s rooms provided just enough cover, thanks to the heavy stone walls that shielded me from view. Even if a guard passed by, they wouldn’t easily notice me standing here. I had to be silent and invisible—a shadow in the dark.Just as I thought t
Darius povPacing around my room, my mind was a chaotic storm, and no amount of pacing could tame it. For once, I felt utterly cornered. Every move I’d made, every calculated risk, every attempt to push Orion down had somehow slipped through my fingers. And here I was, empty-handed and with no Plan B in sight. The frustration was a gnawing ache in my chest, and I knew, deep down, I couldn’t face this alone. I needed guidance—a plan, a ruthless strategy. Without thinking twice, I made my way to the one person who had always known what to do.I knocked on my mother’s door, heart pounding with both frustration and a grudging sense of relief. She opened the door immediately, her piercing gaze slicing through me. She was dressed elegantly, her dark hair pulled back with the grace and dignity of someone ready for battle. I felt her scrutinizing look sweep over me, lingering on the tension in my jaw, the pleading in my eyes. For the first time in what felt like ages, I was back in her presen
Alpha Orion’s povSitting alone in the darkened room, my gaze fell to the shadows on the wall, shapes cast by the faint, flickering candlelight. Patience had always been a virtue I possessed, but tonight, it felt like a thin thread stretched too tight, one more whisper away from snapping. I could feel the tension in my bones, the gnawing anxiety as I waited for my Beta. I had sent him on a mission, one so secret that even Anita knew nothing about it. Ever since that damned banquet, where everything felt… off, I knew I couldn’t ignore the quiet, insidious changes I sensed in Alpha Ethan. Something was wrong, terribly wrong, and I intended to uncover every piece of it, even if it led me down a dangerous path.And then there was Darius. His mask of loyalty had slipped just enough to reveal his true intentions, ones I had been too blind to see until now. His betrayal simmered in my mind like poison. I clenched my fists, the thought of his schemes roiling in my gut. Darius didn’t want what
