Allyssa's Pov. I wake up in my bed, the bed I and the Alpha share, I don't even remember dozing off, I just remember the Beta dropping me off here and me going inside, worried sick about my mate. Who is currently leaning over the bed, looking at me, his breath fanning my face and a smile grazing his lips."You are beautiful" He murmurs and nuzzles my neck. I smile and then when my eyes trail to his arms my breath catches in my throat." And you're hurt" I whisper, alarmed, he straightens and I jump up, getting the first aid box." You're adorable, it's okay though, I don't need that, I'm going to heal on my own anyway" He mutters and I glare at him. Applying some antiseptic cream to my thumb and forefinger, then opening my palms, I mutter, " Bring it here" He looks at me and sighs, " It's really okay"" Those cuts are so fucking deep, please let me treat your wounds, please " my voice cracks at the end, buy I try very hard to keep my composure, and fail miserably. There scratch
Alyssa's POV."Run." That's all I heard from my mom's lips before taking off. I could hear the commotion in the pack, yet I ran as fast as I could, my heart thumping furiously. It felt like the blood was rushing through my ears at super speed, and even though it was just wind against my face, my chest felt tight with worry that someone would spot me. I didn't know who or what I was running from, all I knew was that rogues attacked the pack, and everyone was running for their lives. My feet barely touched the ground as I kept running, with no actual direction. The wind blowing my hair against my face, the sounds grew louder, as if a huge crowd had surrounded us. I pushed myself to run faster, my lungs screaming, my legs burning. Adrenaline coursed through my body, and it burned, but I couldn't stop. It would only be seconds until I hit something. Maybe the fence, maybe a tree... but I needed to keep going, I heard stories about rogues, and I didn't plan on falling victim to any r
Alyssa's POV."Mate." I whispered as I inhaled his scent, a faint hint of woodsy and leather clinging to him. His eyes narrowed at me, taking in my appearance slowly, his nostrils flared ever so slightly with each breath, his gaze lingering on the length of my body before focusing on my face. "Mate." He finally said the words, yet it felt like it was forced out of his mouth. My chest felt tight as if my heart wanted to break, my wolf began whining slowly. "Beta!!" He yelled, making me shake with nervousness. "Yes Alpha." A man came running through the passage I could sight from where I stood. "Take this rogue and add among the rogue slaves we've found." He spat. My heart clenched painfully immediately I heard him, "I'm not a rogue, I was..." I didn't finish my explanation when I felt myself dragged roughly by the hand into an enclosed room. "You're hurting me!" I yelped, trying hard not to make any noise. He growled, the noise was low, deep but not menacing. "You better move
Alyssa's POV.I woke up with a start, my heart racing and sweat running down my face, making the pillow sticky beneath me. I took a breath to try and steady myself before pulling the covers off of my body. The cool air hitting my hot skin made me shiver slightly as it brushed across the sensitive areas below my ribs. The pounding on the door had me running to it immediately, my whole body ached, the injuries from yesterday still evident in various places, but not quite as bad as they had been. I didn’t have time to think about my physical state as I flung open the door and looked at my visitor. My eyes widened immediately, and I wasn't ready for the slap that hit me immediately. I tried greeting the head slave. The slap sent me tumbling backwards into my room's wall, landing hard enough to leave a mark. Tears welled up as the pain spread through my entire body. It felt like someone was hammering their fist through the wall, and it hurt. Badly. "You need a lesson on waking up lat
Lance's POV.The whip landed on me causing me to wince . A sharp stinging sensation erupted in my hand which I held out to touch the place where the leather had cut into me. As soon as contact was made, it started stinging again. "Please let us go." I yelled. My hands frantically grabbed at nothing, trying to find where my parents stayed. The air was heavy with a thick fog so dark that you could hardly see two feet ahead of you. It felt like I was underwater. But I wasn't. A strong hand grabbed the back of my shirt and pulled me along through the darkness.Dragging me on the hard floor, my back scraping every step he took, until finally, he stopped and let me go. I fell forward onto my knees. My breath coming fast, sweat running down my neck and soaking into my tattered shirt. I sat up, trying to get my bearings. The fog was making it difficult to tell where we were or even what time of day. "We haven't even begun with you, once we do, your father would do as we say." The voi
Alyssa's POV.I woke up feeling extremely weak,my whole body aching badly, I couldn't even stand or breathe properly. My limbs felt as if they were being ripped out of my sockets and the blood rushing through my veins had turned to ice. I was so hot all over, like someone had stuck an electric blanket on my skin and my face felt as if it were about to split open from all of this heat that was seeping into the air around me. It felt like there were hundreds of pins and needles piercing me in every limb at once. My eyes hurt too much to open,it felt like someone had smashed them with a large hammer,and I could barely hear anything besides my own labored breathing. I tried desperately to move but my body wouldn’t listen. The door opened and his scent filled my nostrils, I couldn't stand the thought of my mate being the one who hurts me. I didn't want to see him ,yet he was the one, I could feel the raw energy he possessed. He walked to where I laid down, squatting down and he touc
Alyssa's POV."If you think you can escape me, you'll have to try harder, and you'll end up failing anyways." Alpha Lance said as he kept dragging me. My whole body ached from the little escape I attempted. I was pissed that I failed to escape his clutches, the memory of his torture and treatment of me hit me immediately, making me stumble while I got dragged along. "Please you're hurting me." I began pleading, thinking he will feel sorry, he is my mate, he should at least feel something for me. His answering glare made me swallow, I clenched my teeth expecting a slap when he raised his other hand. "Don't tempt me." He warned pointing at me, it looked like he was battling with the ability to not hit me. He ruffled his hair groaning in frustration as his nostrils flared. I yelped when he dropped me to the floor immediately he reached an open room. "Let me make one thing clear." He started turning to me. I bit my lips as I stared at him nervously, I expected him to announce my d
Alyssa's POV.I swallowed nervously when his loud voice echoed in the room. My knees wobbled as I leaned on the door slowly, my heart pounding furiously. I watched him home down from the bed walking towards me slowly, his steps felt like he was calculating carefully. I wasn't ready for the slap that hit me immediately, it felt like I was blown over by a tornado. I dropped to the ground, clutching my cheeks painfully while staring at him, I couldn't believe he hit me, I didn't do anything wrong. "Why didn't you knock?" He barked. "I knocked, I couldn't hear anything." I replied with tears forming in my eyes. "You should have waited for me to call you in." He barked. I swallowed nervously, waiting for another slap as he raised his hand up. He paused for a while, staring at me with narrowed eyes. "You can clean the room, and make sure it's clean before leaving." He walked back to the bed. "I thought you won't be back." The woman giggled, dragging him on the bed. My heart clenc
