The promise that Venus had kept to herself about escaping was now to happen, it had been a day since the entire reveal of Venus being a female alpha.

That day she felt an oncoming headache and retreated to her room, the pressure of it all and everything was settling on her.

James and Sophia had given her all the medication required, as she had also caught high fever with her migraine, along with nausea, she was in a bad shape overall.

Stuffing a box of tissues and her other requirements into her bag, she wore ger hoodie, and with bloodshot eyes and trembling legs, she made her way out of her room.

She realized as her wolf explained; that since it was very rare for werewolves to get sick like that and especially if they are of a higher ranking,

the only reason is the fact that she had found her mate but they still hadn't accepted the bond.

Avoiding and ignoring the bond would lead to weakness on both parts, Dante had not shown any traces of weakness but Venus was a trembling mess.

    "So you're telling me you fled like your derrière had caught fire?" James asked for the nth time skeptically, his facial expression getting direr with every second."I remember when Knox and I first kissed it led to us having sex, straight up," Sophia added, smiling proudly.Venus groaned and hid her face in her hands.After the incident, the night before the only thing Venus did was run to the safety of her room and not come out till she knew she was clear.James and Sophia visited her, girls being girls, she spilled all the 'tea' to her friends.James dropped to the ground when she told them while Sophia clapped her hands ecstatically, beaming at her."Guys help me out, heck I can't even look at him," Venus said, frustrated."Fine, let's go take a walk around the pack to get your mind off this," James muttered, annoyed that his best friend had the opportunity to finally lose her virginity but she had to fuck it up ... Yeah, that's what he was pissed about.After changing her clothe

    She was back in the place she first set eyes on her mate, but the circumstances were very different and she didn't know how to feel about that.Dante sat behind his desk in his black sharp suit, while Venus was in a pair of ripped jeans, a sleeveless top, and a pair of low-top vans.After the kiss in front of the entire pack, Venus couldn't stop blushing, hours later when Dante and the rest were back to training on her way home she was questioning what she really meant to him.Venus decided that before she lost her mind she would much rather talk to him about it and settle it once and for all.Around 5 in the evening she walked up to his office, knocked, and then shortly after entered upon his permission.James and Sophia had advised that she stay calm and not lose her temper."Sit," he commanded, not sparing her a glance and rummaging through a stack of papers.She did as told, annoyed that he wouldn't acknowledge her presence.She cleared her throat, once. Twice."What do you want,

    Venus sat in the office, waiting for her mate to come. After she requested for Lorenzo to shift back, he padded out the door.After a while, her mate walked in wearing khaki shorts and a white tee shirt with canvas sneakers.He looked very very handsome and very ... Normal.Venus tried not to drool over him, watching his tattooed covered thick arms flex upon movement, the way his jaw ticked and clenched when he was angry or just him being ... him.Venus shook her head, okay her thoughts were going haywire, what was going on? She wondered. Her body felt a little more heated than normal but she ignored all that and concentrated on the situation at hand."I see you're waiting for some answers," Dante said, his thick deep voice ringing out in the silent house.Venus nodded and he stood in front of her, folding his arms over his chest, making his muscled arms more bulging and very very distracting.Venus gulped, praying to the moon goddess her body wouldn't betray her."Come, let's take a

    Dante and Venus looked to their right to see Knox and Sophia standing hand in hand, grinning at the both of them widely."Truce?" Sophia asked.Dante looked down at his little mate, who was still safely secured in his arms, the gentle smile on her aglow face told him what to say next."I believe so," he said, a smile in his voice.Sophia squealed in excitement and Knox smiled widely.The next day everyone was getting ready, there was a pack dinner that night.Everything was set in the vast green gardens, the decor was simple yet stunning.

    *mature content* Dante zipped across the stairs and made his way up to his room with Venus tucked safely in his arms. She held onto his nape and shoulders wondering what her dark Lycan had on his mind.His breathing was heavy and deep, while Venus felt chills run up her body, the sizzling kind.With his mate in his arms, Dante walked into his room, placed Venus on his king-sized bed, and walked towards the door.Confused Venus watched him,Click,He locked the door.Venus watched the expanse of his shoulders as he rolled them. They flexed upon movement and he turned around, eyes set on his mate sitting in the middle of his bed with her dress bunched around her upper thighs.Keeping his hot gaze on hers, he started taking off his suit jacket. Taking his time. Casually throwing it on the sofa, then taking purposeful lazy strides towards the bed. All while taking off his cufflinks and rolling up his sleeves to his forearms.Revealing thick tattooed arms, Venus gulped."Sweetheart a

    "Girl so you finally got down and did the dirty," James squealed, hugging Venus tightly while behind them Sophia clapped her hands ecstatically."Guys quiet down, someone might hear," Venus whisper shouted, as she bent down to tie the laces of her white vans, she was wearing a plain white tee loosely tucked into her blue shorts.The morning that followed their passionate night, Venus awoke in Dantes's arms, he bid her good morning and decided to show her how 'good' of a morning it was before she had to shoo the insatiable lycan to leave as he had meetings to attend to.James snorted."Bitch I bet everyone knows, you reek of him," James said shrugging, now looking at his manicured nails."It's true, when the alpha and luna mate and mark the entire pack feels it because it's our completion," Sophia explained.Venus stood shell-shocked in front of her friends, horrified by the idea of everyone knowing about them when they mate."But we didn't mark or mate he just-he just...," venus trai

    A blurry grey.That's the first thing Venus saw, she then blinked her eyes, her sight more focused. A rusty grey roof, she blinked again.Her mind registering a dull throb at the back of her head, as she realized she was sprawled across the hard concrete floor, carefully she leaned up using the little strength she had.Suddenly a sharp pain in her head made her hiss in agony and she fell back onto the floor, clutching her head in her hands, her eyes clenched shut.After a while, the pain subsided, and Venus tried to sit up again more carefully this time, she looked at her hands to see them full of blood.Confused she touched her temple to see fresh red blood trickling down in droplets down her fingers.She was losing blood.She looked around, a dirty and small grey room. A door.She slowly used the wall next to her to stand up, and as she did the sound of chains caught her attention and she looked down to see both her feet in shackles."Damn it," she cussed out softly.And they seeme

    'Well of course you must know that there have been many before you and that just the fact that you're his mate makes no difference whatsoever, you mean nothing to him,' Roberto said, chuckling sadistically, while Venus sat on the concrete floor silent, as her mate's own father spoke to her filth about his own son and mocked their bond.She dug her nails into her palms to keep herself from lashing out at him, and because she was too weak due to the silver chains, it would be hard for her to fight.A few days had gone by and still no signs of Dante, slowly all of everything was making her hope chip away piece by piece.The constant stretch of days alone in an empty room, being force-fed stale bread and dirty water, her own thoughts and the words coming from her enemy's mouth.She didn't want to believe them but her sanity was dying with her better judgment.It felt like the end to her, and especially that she had started coughing out blood and would get beaten by her captor a few time
