Lance's POV."Alpha, that rogue went out to meet her rogue partners." Belinda said, her eyes on me.I growled immediately when I heard what Belinda said, I stared at her doubtfully.I can remember, "What do you mean?" I asked."Alpha, I'm serious, she's not here." Belinda said.I rushed to the slave quarters immediately, as a slave she had no right leaving the pack grounds without permission or supervision.I entered the slave quarters and the head slave swallowed immediately she saw me."Alpha, Alyssa didn't finish what I asked her to do." She said immediately."Alyssa?" I asked."Yes, she's in the kitchen right now." She replied, swallowing nervously.I stared at Belinda, then back at the head slave."You said she went out." I turned to Belinda."Yes, I saw her.""She sneaked out." Belinda nodded."Alyssa." The head slave called out.She rushed to the kitchen and I followed her slowly, Alyssa wasn't there."She was here when I left her." The head slave frowned.I groaned, tiredness
Alyssa's POV.I heard sudden footsteps behind me, it made my heartbeat fast, it was so unexpected because I knew I was walking alone seconds ago.I quickened my pace immediately, but my legs felt like jelly, and my stomach tied itself into a knot as though I ate something bad.And the footsteps behind me increased, making me stop in fear and shock that someone is following me.But the fear turned into worry when they got louder still.The footsteps are heavy and rhythmic, not soft at all, unlike mine, it made me shudder with apprehension at how they approach. The noise was getting closer now.It made me nervous. My heart was racing and the sweat starts pouring off of my body.“Who is there?” I said out loud. “What do you want?”My throat tightened up as I waited, I could hear the pounding blood inside my ears. I swallowed heavily as I tried to calm myself down. But that only made me feel uneasy again.There was no answer, which made me more scared.And every step I took, the
Alyssa's POV.All I could think of was how to reach the pack safely.My whole body was hurt and the shivering refused to stop, the wounds kept on hurting like crazy.My eyes were blurry and my vision was hazy, it was almost impossible for me to see anything clearly at that moment.The cold air felt as if it cut right through every part of me. I was shivering hard, shaking uncontrollably.I didn’t dare try to move, or to even let out a sound, just in case I would give away where I hid.After a while, a loud rustling started coming closer to me.I held my breath and pressed myself against a tree to make sure they wouldn't notice me. My hands shook violently.Tears rolled down my cheeks, making their way along the dirtied skin.My body shook so bad it caused me to stumble and fall flat on my face. The stumbling had them realize where I hid again, I stood up with yelp when they came closer.My legs gave up from under me as soon as my feet touched the ground and the next thing I know is b
Lance's POV.I couldn't believe my ears when I was told she came back.The fact that she had the guts to come back after meeting the rogues.I stalked towards her cell room angrily, I needed to tell her my mind and how disappointed I was with her.I was going to yell at her until there were no more tears in her eyes, I was going to punish her and I did.The tears she spilled felt fake to me, I could stand seeing her cry, it annoyed me that it affected me.She looked so broken that it hurt to see her and I didn't want to hurt her,but she deserved it anyways.I watched as she curled around herself like a wounded creature, I wanted to feel pity for her, but I couldn't.Her body language screamed betrayal and disgust as if she didn't deserve what I was showing her, she didn't deserve any of it.I couldn't believe she went to them, there was nothing I hated more than betrayal and she did just that.I watched as her face crumpled, tears falling down her cheeks as she tried to fight off my w
Lance's POV."I asked a question." I repeated, his eyes widened in fear again as he was finding it hard to breath while staring at me.His fingers shook slightly as the air around them began to vibrate with nervous energy.I didn't even do much to him and he was already scared, my eyes narrowed as I waited for what he'd say.I'm waiting for the next words that would change everything, I needed to know who sent them to attack her in the first place.They never came as his lips pressed together like thin white lines and he looked away, shaking slightly."I...I was..." He whispered in barely audible voice. I frowned deeper as my eyes narrowed at him suspiciously, he wasn't saying a thing and that was making me more upset."What were you trying to say?" My patience was starting to wear out.It was almost like he didn't hear anything I said because he kept glancing at me, as if something or someone could be watching from behind my back.I crossed my arms tightly against my chest, leaning
Alyssa's POV.I woke up with a wince, and I was not exactly pleased about it as I remembered the night before.I remembered how I was punished by the Alpha, I am happy I got saved at the last minute.I could still remember what happened to me, before I came back to the pack.I tried standing up, but my body ached like crazy, I groaned out in pain. My mind had already started racing around in panic, wondering if I would get in trouble again.I sighed as I tried standing up again, this time I managed to sit up. My hand went to rub my head in agony. The headache had become so intense.I felt myself falling back onto the mattress as I tried to find the strength to move. This was all too much for my head.My body hurt, my muscles ached and I didn't think I wanted anything more than some quiet, a shower and sleep.I forced myself to concentrate and open my eyes, I realized I was in the Alpha's room.A blush stained my cheeks, as I thought of him meeting me in his bed.Though it has happen
Alyssa's POV.This time when I opened my eyes, all I could see was white. It took me a while to realize it wasn't snow and I was just staring at the ceiling. A sharp pain hit me immediately, and I groaned as I moved my arm around trying to find out where it hurt worst. A lot of it, actually. Like most of my body. Everything felt sore and tender.I remembered fainting after the pain was too much, I thought it would be gone when the healer told me it was just side effects.I hated the fact that every time I went there seemed to be some new pain involved. As if someone put something in the drug the head slave gave me.The pain didn't stop, it was worse than it was earlier.Which didn't make sense to me, since I had been asleep for several hours from the time I saw now, the pain could've subsided as the healer said it would.I tried standing up, but the moment my feet touched the floor, they began throbbing, like an intense ache in my whole leg.I winced and collapsed on my bed, hold
Alyssa's POV.I couldn't believe Belinda was sneaking into the room.I closed my eyes, trying to pretend I was sleeping, but the fact of her being here kept me from doing that.I suspected that she had something to do with how I felt when I woke up, I just didn't know it would be true.She must have been waiting for me to sleep, I'm sure she was close to the door, enjoying my cry of pain.I couldn't understand what her problem was, and why she hated me and wanted to kill me.She was making several attempts, some she made me know and some I suspected.Right now she was making my suspicion true.I could hear her getting closer to my bed. She stood close to me and I hoped I was able to pretend that she wasn't here and that I was sleeping.She paused for some time, my heart beating repeatedly, I wondered if she had left yet, or if she would try something else.I couldn't open my eyes, it felt like she would catch me, and I was so scared of what she wanted to do.I didn't want to feel pai
