Chapter 1

ABANDONED

 LIA BLAKE

 

With force I pushed open the door and stormed into my room. The moment I slumped onto my bed, all the emotions I thought I had held back broke free and tears streamed down my face. 

I clutched my face in my hands and wailed. I wailed like I hadn't done before. 

As my tears flowed, the memories of the day flooded into my head. 

A day supposed to be one of the best days in my life turned out to be a painful one for me. 

<<A FEW HOURS AGO>>

Snatching myself up in the most pretty dresses I ever owned with a perfect make-over, the type I rarely do, I had dolled up myself  for my school prom night. The last I would have as a high school kid. Yes, it shouldn't just be my last but my best as well, I had thought. 

I was totally over the moon and It wasn't just that I was attending my last school prom night but a part of it was that I would be attending it with my crush. I couldn't have been more excited. 

"Please have you seen Carlos?"  

"Have you seen Carlos? He is handsome and has this… curly pretty hair. He is tall and…"

The extremely busy guy merely flashed me a glance as his eyes focused back on the cleavage he was gawking at. 

 

"Get lost bitch! Don't you see we are busy?!" The girl barked at me. 

 

I hissed and continued on. Bunch of lusty sex- starved simpletons!

 

I kept asking whoever I bumped into as I surged and wriggled my way forward through the clustered sweaty bodies.

 

The blasting music from the speaker didn't help matters. They banged at my head more than they drifted into my ears.  

"Gosh, where on earth would Carlos be…" I had wondered. He wasn't taking his calls nor did he return my numerous calls. I was beginning to get worried. The Carlos I know would never intentionally screen my calls.  

We were supposed to come to the school prom together for fuvk sake! 

Poor me. This was supposed to be my last prom in high school where I would have all the fun…but there I was running around. I feared how ruined my dress and makeover would be.   

I finally managed to struggle my way out of the crowd and dashed into the classrooms in search of Carlos. I figured he would probably be in one of the classes taking a rest or something. Carlos didn't like noisy places that much.  

I had checked like three classrooms when I heard a loud cheer from the dance hall followed by an abrupt stop of the music. I halted in my steps wondering what had happened to grab their attention.  

I was about to take a step to continue my search for Carlos when I began to hear chants of Carlos! Carlos! Carlos!  

I spun around and dashed back into the hall.  

That jerk! I would so punch him hard on his face. How dare he come to the prom without me. 

I had barely made it past the doorpost when my feet got stuck to the ground and my body went stiff. 

There, Carlos had his arms around the body of a girl and they were deeply immersed with each other, lips locked together. 

My whole world stopped that second. I totally forgot how to breathe as I stood there watching with a wrenched heart as my crush suckled the lips of another girl. My feet wobbled weakly and impulsively I had gripped the doorpost for support. The sadness that enveloped my heart, I doubt I had ever felt it before. It was so painful watching my crush make out with another girl that the pain reached into the core of my wolf and inside of me, she whined painfully. 

I must have been foolish thinking and hoping all these while that I could be with him in the beginning.  

When their lips finally pulled away, I saw his now deeply yellow eyes and then it dawned on me he had found his mate. 

Unable to watch while everyone cheered them, I had dragged my heavy legs and fled. 

The sound and vibration of my phone jolted me out of my thoughts. I sighed, making a mental note to ignore the phone until much later. 

The thought of my crush lips against the girl still felt painful to imagine.  

But my phone wouldn't stop ringing. I rose to totally shut it off but couldn't find it when I searched my purse.  

When I didn't find it in my purse, I forced myself to sit up and then I noticed it  was ringing under the bed.  

How come…I was still wondering how it had happened but then I figured it could have fallen off my purse when I had angrily flung my purse towards the edge of the bed on storming into the room.  

The phone momentarily stopped ringing as though it saw through my hesitation to pick it up. 

But the ringtone brought up yet another sweet memory now turned painful. Carlos and I use the same ringtone. He had suggested we used this particular one. 

I swallowed painfully, forcing the memory away.  

Then I lay back in bed and pulled the covers over me.  

My whole life is over. My whole life… 

I have crushed on Carlos literally all my life and I waited like an obedient child for the moment, the moment he will finally ask me out. How cruel could the Moon goddess be? 

Tears sting my eyes as the memories of all the times I spent together with him came rearing up in my head. He made me have a crush on him and he looked at me like I mattered in his life. All those times he held my hands and hugged me, was it all a joke to him? How could he treat me so well knowing he would abandon me the moment he finds his mate without a second thought. Even a distant friend doesn't deserve to be treated this way. I thought we were close and cool. He promised me…He swore to always be by my side. But now he doesn't even remember I ever existed. Fuck…Carlos…how could he forget his words. 

I could feel my heart knot painfully against my chest. I couldn't even shed another tear as I had probably shedded it all already.  

I was going to ignore my phone until much later since it stopped ringing but it soon started to ring again.  

Angry, I dragged my tired body out of bed and searched for it grudgingly.  

After a few minutes, I sighed as I sank back into the bed with the phone in my hand.

Who else would be draining my battery with calls if not my best friends.  

Jimmy: eleven missed calls. 

Emily: twelve missed calls.  

I opened our group message where it was only the three of us and began to type.  

"I'm sorry Jimmy, Emily but I just feel like dying. I promise to call you both when I feel a little better…" 

I felt a sharp pain in my head as I tried to tap the send the button. My phone dropped from my hand and on impulse, I clutched my head in pain letting out a painful groan. 

 

My head was aching so much I thought I would die. The pain from my heart must have transferred to my head. 

 

A knock sounded on my door at the same time. 

 

"Lia!!! Are you in there?? Open up!!"

 

 I couldn't have missed that voice. I scrambled to my feet and dashed towards the door. Pulling it open and standing before me was my best friends, Emily and Jimmy. It couldn't have been anyone else. 

 

They both had a pity look in their eyes. 

 

"Come here you cute poor thing…group hug…" they pulled me into their arms and patted my back in a consoling manner. 

 

"It's fine baby. You will get your mate, I promise. The Moon goddess surely has the best charming man for you. Okay?" Jimmy said, pulling me in tighter. 

 

"What's even so good about him anyways? Toor! Right now girl, he is average! That jerk Carlos! How could he abandon you in such a manner! Middle finger for his darn self!" Emily cussed out Carlos.

 

I thought I was past the sobbing stage but hearing the name Carlos triggered my tear gland again. I pressed my face against my friends' shoulders as I cried. 

 

"It's okay. It's fine…let it all out and you will be fine…"

 

After some moments of mushiness, we gently pulled away. 

 

"Get dressed, we are painting the town red!!!" Emily screamed and gripped me playfully.  

"What?" I turned towards Jimmy and he flashed me a smile in agreement to Emily's words. 

 

"No guys, I don't feel like partying…" I said and got back into bed. 

 

"No no no…it's a must and we are not asking you for permission." Jimmy pulled the covers away and dragged me up. Emily had already flung open my wardrobe and had picked out a red dress for me.

 

"Shhhhhush.. don't say another word and put this on!" She winked at me and shoved the dress into my hands. I let out a deep breath, unable to argue with them anymore knowing they would win at the end. I dragged my feet into the washroom where I changed into the dress after a quick wash. 

 

"Isn't this looking too short…and skimpy?" I said as I stepped out of the bathroom fully changed. 

 

"Of course not! This is perfect!" Emily squeaked and twirled me around.  

Jimmy drove us to one of the busiest clubs in town. 

Inside the car, Emily and Jimmy did all their best to get me out of my sour mood. Well, it sort of worked as I soon began to snap out of it and the fun mood started to grow on me. 

 

Minutes later, we were driving into the clubhouse. 

 

"And here we are!!"

 

Stepping down from the car and my eyes jamming with my biggest fear happened at the same time. 

 

Carlos' hands were wrapped across his mate's waist as they sweetly walked into the clubhouse.  

Tears stung my eyes as I watched them step into the clubhouse looking like the best couple in town. 

 

"No, don't do that…come on girl, you can find better men." Emily held me.

 

Maybe…Maybe there are better men out there but my heart has always longed for one man. Carlos. 

 

As if that wasn't enough, the chatt of people for the few minutes we got into the club were totally centered on Carlos and his mate.

"I will be right back guys. Let me get us more drinks." Jimmy said and headed towards the bar counter. 

"More drinks!! Yeeey!" Emily squealed with excitement. 

I just chuckled. Emily sure isn't much of the party type but seeing her squeak and squeal tonight, I wonder if I knew her at all. 

 A few other people sat beside us. There was a table with people across us and two mini ones by the right and left. 

This particular table by our right had three girls sitting around it. They were so loud their conversation got picked up by my ears. Bottles of drinks and glasses sat on the table as they gisted and drank. 

"Hey, did you hear?" One of them said to the other two.

"What? Is there any recent news?"  The blonde one asked, her eyes piqued with interest as she pushed her chair closer to the table. She looked like the most curious one amongst them. 

Seeing it was gossip, I mentally forced my ears away from their discussion. I had a lot going on already to care about some gossip about someone. But the words of the first girl swept into my ears without my consent. It wasn't just any news but the news about me.

"See her over there." She stylishly pointed at me to the other two who snickered the moment they saw me.

"Well, I feel bad for her. It must be hard being mateless and having your crush find his mate." The second girl added with a shake of head. 

"But then, why is she in the club? She should go kneel and beg the moon goddess for a mate or something!". The other girl who hadn't said a word all these while finally spoke and the other two laughed. 

They kept on snickering and giggling to themselves as they pointed at me calling me unlucky and mateless. The rest I couldn't hear as everything began to turn hazy in my eyes. 

At that point, every urge to have fun had fizzled away and left me a broken shell. Tears slipped down my cheeks. I couldn't hold it back anymore.  

"Pull yourself together, Lia!" Emily yelled and gripped my shoulders.  

"How can I? Just how can I…" I stared at her, my eyes welled up in tears. 

"Should I go teach them a lesson?" She charged up. 

I held her back and stopped her. Being unlucky and mateless was enough. I couldn't let my friends soil their names because of me. 

Jimmy came back with drinks but my mood had already gone sour and all the effort my best friends made to get me back to a happy mood failed. 

Suddenly, I began to feel something charge up my throat as if I would puke. 

"Lia? Are you alright?" Emily asked as she rubbed my back. I looked up to meet her eyes and she understood at once. 

"It's all right…take a deep breath…you will be fine…" she continued to say as she patted my back. 

It wasn't new. I sometimes feel nauseous when my wolf is in a bad mood. Heck, why does it have to be right here of all places. 

I thought I could hold it in but it came rushing up my throat again that I could feel the taste in my tongue. Onions, cabbage…

I quickly stood up and dashed out in search of the restroom.

KIDNAPPED
LIA BLAKE Phew! I drew in a quick breath. I was standing at the cliff of a mountain. The air was light and as it brushed against my skin, it caressed my pores and left me feeling refreshed. That moment, I got a chance to not feel miserable. How sad must my wolf have felt. We just thought…just maybe Carlos and I will ever get a chance to be together. I beat my chest and bit my lips suddenly feeling a surge of determination. Yes, it was just a crush. I have to be brave now. For myself and for my wolf and brush this lurking sadness off me. I gulped thickly as I felt my tears choke down my throat. Yes, this was the best thing I should do for myself. The thought of seeing Carlos gallivant the entire pack with his mate was just a lot for me to handle. Yes, call me jealous, but it hurts me everyday. Maybe someday the moon goddess will be kind enough to give me my own mate. If she is even kinder and listens to Jimmy's prayers, she would make him the best man in the whole wide world

SEIZED AND THROWN INTO THE DUNGEON
LIA BLAKE"What the hell have you done to me?" I muttered in disbelief. Gosh, what happened to Lia Blake that I used to know? The last time I came close to looking this snatched up was last summer at the school prom night. Of course it didn't end well for me.She walked to the wardrobe and pulled out a white long lacy and extremely pretty dress. Wait…isn't that a …a wedding dress. "A wedding dress?" My eyes widened. She extended it to me and said, "Put it on…erm but before then I would like to say something…" Now this is beginning to get scary. Who exactly is this woman before me…She hung the wedding dress in one of the hanger, ran her fingers on it as though she didn't want to leave it but for some reason had to."You know, I have always been excited for this moment…my wedding, the night I get to be fully joined in marriage to my mate and love of my life…well…life doesn't always go as planned…" her voice went low. I could feel the sadness in her tone. Who exactly is she and why d

THE BAIT
Lia BlakeI heard a rustling and creaking sound in my sleep. I forced my eyes to shut even more. All through the night, the cold had gotten worse and the entire hairs on my body had stood erect as the cold hammered against my body. I was a bit thankful for the wedding dress. The long length had been of help. A typical example of a blessing and curse. The air got colder and the terrible stench of the dungeon got worse by the second. I couldn't catch a glimpse of sleep even though I had my eyes shut most of the time. I did more stopping myself from breathing than trying to sleep. But each time I squinted my eyes towards the prisoner, he always looked to be sound asleep curled up in one corner of the dungeon. I wondered how he could have offended the Lycan King to find himself here, how long he must have been here and how many more days, perhaps weeks or months he had to stay here. Poor him. Lia, worry more about yourself. The thought of being his prison mate had goosebumps crawling

"YOU WILL BE MY WIFE"
DERRICK KINGS"What is it, Damian? And why did you have to come here? You are stopping the guards from doing their duty." I frowned at Damian when we were away from the guards and the intruder lady. "Derrick, I know I shouldn't be doing this but think carefully about this…" Damian started, his playful grin gone from his face. "Think about what?""Her…you can't have her locked up, don't tell me you are doing this because of…"Because of what?" I snapped, feeling my anger surge. Knowing what exactly he was trying to bring up, I cut him off, not willing to reopen an old wound that moment. "She has a hand in the disappearance of Laura and must be held hostage until Laura is found." "Do you really believe she has a hand in Laura's disappearance?" Damian asked me. I looked at him, confused. "What the heck are you trying to say?" I clenched. "Relax man, relax. I just asked. But if you will let me speak to you right now as your Beta and not your friend, I will advise you to deal with th

THE NEW SERVANT
LIA BLAKE"Wear this!" An older woman flimsily threw some cloth at me. Unable to catch it, the cloth dropped to the ground. She was putting on a servant's clothing and I knew at once she must be one of the elderly servants. "And you are not allowed to be clumsy here! Get your tiny self into them and get your arse down for some work! You stink!" She added, shot me a disgusting look before she walked out of the room slamming the door behind her shot. I stared down at myself, at the once extremely pretty wedding dress I wore that had now turned into a complete mess and stinking badly from the stench of the dungeon. Anyone would hardly believe it. I sighed tiredly and sank into the nearby seat. Well, it was actually the only seat in the somewhat large room. "You will be my wife…" the words of the Lycan King echoed in my head. Such good meaning words said with so much venom and cruelty. Cold shivers creeped my flesh and I shuddered. To any she-wolf, those words were pleasing to hear

THE NEW SERVANT 2
LIA BLAKE"Don't worry, you will get used to it." Ma'am Lucy said as though she read my thoughts. There were some guards guarding the frontage of the different axis of the exquisite buildings. "He really is the king…" I murmured in awe gaping around the place. My father's house, despite how I usually saw it as one of the finest houses in my pack, was like nothing compared to this beauty. "Excuse me, we are here to see the king…He is aware of our coming." I heard Ma'am Lucy ask one of the men on duty. I didn't hear the guard speak but Ma'am Lucy was soon calling out to me. "Come along girl! The King is waiting.""Yes ma'am," I mumbled still partly in awe as I took quick long strides to catch up with her. She pushed open the entrance door and we let ourselves in. The dead silence of the room struck me the moment we stepped in. A series of portraits and pictures of people I guessed to be legends or perhaps had an impact on the pack hung on the wall. "This is the throne room, not

SUBSTITUTE WIFE
DERRICK KING"So, what did you decide to do with her?" Damian asked as he strolled into my office.I was busy with some documents. There was a lot more about being a Lycan king. Asides making tough decisions, this was also part of it…signing of and approving necessary projects and duties."Have you seen Rick? Why hasn't he submitted the list of men fit for the next level of training yet?" I asked without taking my eyes off the paper I was looking through. "I have no idea what that bastard is up to…I haven't set my eyes on him since morning." Damain said without interest and slumped into the settee across my table. The door opened and someone trotted in briskly. "Here, sir. Forgive my lateness." I looked up to see Rick drop a file on the desk and flashing me a dirty grin. "Where have you been?" I asked him as I ran my eyes down his chaotic body."Training your men, of course. We went hunting too. Damn, the hounds are pumped. I bet they wouldn't waste a second to rip apart anythin

SEARCHING FOR LIA
BLOOD MOON PACK WRITER'S POV"This is so strange…" Jimmy said as he and Emily walked out of Alpha Blake's home. "Exactly…she couldn't have just gone off the grid without notice. Does it even make sense?" Emily added. She was worried and scared at the same time. They were heading out of Alpha Blake's house where they were informed by one of the servants that Lia hadn't been home for more than a few days. They all thought she was with them as she used to be in the past and they, Jimmy and Emily equally thought she was at home. "Wait!" Emily screeched to a halt. She sneered as a sudden thought hit her. "You don't think she is with Carlos right now?"Jimmy's face rumpled. "You mean like Carlos has kidnapped her? But why would he do that? He found his mate and…"Emily smacked his head. "Idiot, not like kidnapped her. Maybe she went to him to beg him to take her back.""Lia wouldn't do that. You know Lia, she cares about her pride," Jimmy said. "Hm-mm," Emily nodded thoughtfully. J

CAUGHT IN THE SEARCH
WRITER'S POVThe Hulk sneered at Barnes, "You, have you tricked me?"For several minutes, Barnes kept taking him to different places claiming she had lost her toy there but once he got searching for it, she always told him it wasn't there and took him to a different place. And when he tried to ignore her and get back to the house, she would pout and burst into tears.But the Hulk wasn't having it again. He straightened up and faced her. Then he gripped her by the neck and lifted her to his eye level. "You dare trick me… who made you do this?" He growled.Barnes writhed in pain. "I…I really lost…""Tell me who made you do this or I will end you right now…""Let me go and I will tell you!"He lowered her back to the ground still glaring at her. "Speak!" He barked.Barnes wiped her face. Emily had told her to try and hold off the Hulk for as long as she could. But she wasn't sure she could continue anymore. The Hulk was already sniffing the foul play.
