Lucinda's POV. I was a little bit perplexed by the change of atmosphere immediately these people walked in. I wanted to desperately believe that there was actually something that could be done about it but I didn't know what to say. At this point I was beginning to lose my whole but at the same time still trying to comprehend why all of these things happen at the same time. Alpha Kael noticed that I was looking at him and immediately walked towards me. I didn't want to look like I was scared of him but I just didn't understand his aura. It made him look like he was one of those people who were out to get others and I didn't like it at all. "He has this intimidating look. It should not allow that to get to you because if you do then you are cooked. He is going to make a mess out of you and I'm telling you for a fact that everything that you have worked for so far would not come out well. He always wants intermediate people but you know, you should never allow him." Alpha Woodsworth
Lucinda's POV. I was in for a roller coastal ride with the amount of Alpha exploring in and everyone decided to linger on my face or my boobs. At a point, Darcus give me his coat to wear over my dress which even made me look more snatched with the belt that i brought along from home.I knew that he loved exactly how I looked and was proud of me and that was one of my most impressive moments. This new face roamed over mine, looking at me from here to toe while smiling."Alpha Darcus, you have such a pleasant woman as your company. I think this is the best you have done in the last few years." He said good naturally and busting into laughter which Darcus reciprocated. I was beginning to pick up on his signals. He wasn't a stuff as people wanted him to be instead he just loved a good principle where you couldn't touch his things anyhow and he wouldn't move towards yours. This was probably Stockholm syndrome. I was beginning to like the ways of my kidnapper even though I knew that he
Lucinda's POV. I was sitting alone, waiting for some time and hoping that I was able to enjoy the party which I didn't think was possible anyway but I was just hoping like I had said. The lady that I had seen before came to sit beside me and smiled. I didn't know what to expect so I didn't smile back into that. I kept on watching her like she was in danger. I didn't want to be one of those people who would be involved in a love triangle or something of the sword and I was trying as much as possible to escape anything that was going to lead me into speaking too much. "You sound like a very educated person and I want to know you more. I have been looking for someone to talk to ever since the party began but have come up with absolutely no idea." She said with a small smile on her face. "Oh really? Is that what you think I am? I'm so honored that you think I am educated but I'm just a girl trying to find her footing around here. I wouldn't call myself that educated." I was saying th
Darcus POVWe walked into the study together. I have been a bit fed up about these matters, leading is something that weighs on you no matter how it comes. I sighed and sat on a chair in the study room as Jared did the same. He sat down and clasped his hand together, he looked weary as though he had been under a lot of stress. I sighed and picked a bar of chocolate from my pocket and placed it in my mouth staring at him. “I need your advice on something to be honest,” he said with a tired voice. He rested on the chair and his weariness was even more obvious.“You should try to rest once in a while. If you can't function well, you will make irredeemable mistakes,” I said. Although I knew I could take my own advice, it always feels good giving someone advice. “Yeah, and you are well rested?” Jared replied with an eye roll. I chuckled and relaxed even further. “So what is it?” I asked him. “I needed your help with this border device that has been a huge problem in my ass,” he said.
Lucinda. After hearing exactly everything that he wanted to say I would not even consider myself remotely useful and that was how bad things have gotten between us. The only thing I was thinking about at that minute was how to leave this place without losing my mind. I could already see myself losing my senses if I stayed any minute longer. Darcus caught my arm just as I was about to descend the stairs, "I don't know what is wrong with you but that is not exactly what happened right? You and I know for a fact that you are more than just a concubine to me." I looked him in the eye strangely but I couldn't even find it in me to be mad at him especially after when he had been nothing but nice to me and I was just the only one finding it hard to admit it to myself that I would never be more."I believe everything that you have said but it doesn't change it back to that I would always remain what exactly I am you know. I don't think I'm the person who wants to ever be in love with anyb
LuCINDER POV. I glanced at the men in question to be sure that they were telling me the truth and not just making me feel mad. “Is it true?” I asked Ramon who wrote his eyes as though he didn't even care about whatever was being said. “I need an answer so that I know my next move. I can't just think that you would not betray me when there is glaring evidence here. I am trying to believe you but at the same time I still need to be wise about it. Do you understand me?” I demanded from him. It might sound like I didn't trust him in any way but how was I going to trust him when it was very stupid to. Ramon growled and immediately launched himself at the so-called leader. I had every right to be mad at whoever I wanted to be and his actions were not even proof that he was not guilty. This was the reason why I joined the elite pack in the beginning but now he decided to make me look like a fool and I was not going to have it. I had many things up my brain and I would rather indulge my
Kira's POV. My initial response immediately after she spoke those words was to call her brother, but I decided against it because that was going to affect me afterward. I would rather just keep on watching and hoping that I was able to finalize things without even getting more mad. Ramon walked in with blood all over his body and I was a little bit perplexed. Forgetting my initial quest to ask him where he had been for so long I went as far as going close to him and assisting him inside the house. "Where have you been? I have been worried sick about you and yet received no response from you. I honestly cannot fathom that you have been so injured without thinking it was right to call me or inform me in any way."Ramon lifted his eyes to stare into mine in this belief, " I should be a little worried that you thought it was nice to come and check on me after I have successfully pushed our daughter into danger." He was saying these words just to make me mad, but I knew his plans and d
Ramon's POV. The amount of fear that I could smell in this arena was enough to tell me that I needed to save this kid even if that was the last thing I did."Alpha Ramon!" The child screamed but with a hint of hope. She was most probably the age of my daughter and didn't know that I was also facing my own problems as it was, but she had high hopes that I had come to save her, and that was exactly what I planned on doing. She wasn't going to stay here even one more minute after I was done fighting with these guys. "Let her go. So you used her as a trap for me?" I asked the masked man. He was so cowardly that he couldn't even bother to open his face so that I knew who exactly I was dealing with. He didn't smell familiar, and neither did he look like the people who took my kid, but I didn't want to be too forward to think that I was going to be able to recover this girl from their clutches. "I know that you always engage yourself in rescue missions even though they don't always yie
Lucinda POV. Fixated on my goals I refused to allow myself to be deterred by anything inside. I've kept on moving and trying as much as possible to figure out what I needed to do next that was not going to disturb me too much. I had so many things that I wanted to make and put in place but I needed something that would last longer. The more I kept on waiting the more I was going to begin to think of different things and at this point, that was not exactly what I wanted for myself. I wanted something more and I was going to get it no matter how hard it was to find. After waiting for some time I decided to relax and just see what I could get. At least the least thing that I was entitled to have to be getting my answers already done and by the time I was through, I would be nowhere to be found especially when it came to discussing this. The only problem I was facing right now was that these men refused to live and I began to wonder why. It's surely not because of me because they wer
Lucindas pov. I could hear the voice of my daughter screaming in my subconscious, making me driven by fear and anger to destroy this guy who took another person's child. It was not going to be an easy thing and I was already sure of that because of all the issues that I had faced so far but the only thing that was going to keep me going was the fact that I had loyal supporters at least I thought I did. It was not going to be easy but at a point I was going to get the hang of it and then I wouldn't have to make too much noise about it. “So is there something that I should be aware of? I probably have a whole thing to deal with. I'm adding this to the mix and it is not even palatable at all.” I responded sharply. It wasn't going to happen just like that and no matter how much I tried I just couldn't fulfill all of that at the same time. One thing that was evidence was the fact that I needed someone who could assist in getting answers from everybody and then we could let the rest la
Lucinda POV. I headed toward the back of the pack, with my head held high as I thought of what exactly to do next. I didn't want to make it very hard for them to deal with. Instead I maintained my cool and was waiting as much as I could to just see what was going to happen in my absence. I knew that something was wrong but just couldn't replace my finger completely and that was my mission. If I was able to get anyone to come my way then I would not waste any more time but if I can't, I will have no choice but to keep on with my head high hoping that I was able to get everything done. My phone began to ring and I looked at it. It was Martha that was calling. What part of her not calling me did she not get? I was tired as hell and I didn't want anything to complicate issues any further. The only thing that I wanted to do right now was to relax and sleep and hope that I was able to get everything done. The only thing that I wanted to do again was to make sure that I found out where
Lucinda POV. The men in question couldn't believe their eyes that they were watching me defer everything that they knew to be true. It was either one way or the other going to work and I was sure that everything was being properly kept."You have no right to demand her release! We are the ones who say what we want, and it is definitely going to work out. I'm not going to stand here and let you bully me into thinking that we are not going to be able to deal with the situation!" I was not going to listen to them either. I was listening to my instincts, which told me to fight for this girl. Not because of anything that I could gain but instead because she deserved to be released. I knew what happened whenever girls were left in the custody of many Men. Rogues like this usually turn them into baby machines and that was not going to happen to this beautiful young girl I turned swiftly, moving to the side just as my wolf had directed. I was in tandem with him at all times, and we always
Lucinda POV. I chased her hot and hard towards the end of the road knowing that I was going to find something more delicious that was going to give me more energy than I needed right now. The little girl beside me also broke into a run and I could hear her panting tirelessly. "Some children are locked in the back. She doesn't allow us to leave. Now that you have come you're going to tighten her security. Can you see that I have not been lying all along?" She panted hard as she chased her former boss.I wondered what she used these kids for besides the trafficking and using them for their abilities. Instead of running after her I decided to wait for a minute and see where she would possibly go. There was a river that was going to mask her scent and running after her was nothing but foolishness. As someone who didn't want to indulge in anything that was going to destroy my lungs or my body I wanted freedom for these people and that was exactly what I wanted to get. Focusing on Feli
Lucinda POV. We approached a little hut that the little girl had pointed at and I was a little bit worried that this was not a place that somebody should even say that they lived. Well I couldn't judge them when it wasn't as though I wanted to provide solutions for them so I just had to look deeply and hope that I was able to understand everything that was going on here She looked very scared and I understood this from the amount of animals that I had trained a long time ago. She didn't look like somebody that was lying at all but I didn't want to give her the impression that I wanted to help her so soon. I needed somebody that would be able to understand that it was not going to be easy but we could always find a way to make things work I was waiting for her to be done with everything that she was thinking of then we would have that discussion. I think she's about to come outside. Please do not allow me to stay here for long. She's going to kill me if she finds that I have not d
Lucinda POV We lunged forward as Ramon took on the elders and the other rogues came for me. My fighting prowess wasn't something I ever doubted, moved fluidly, all these small fries would be eating dirt before they could touch me. I was faster than them, way faster in fact, maybe some of them had raw strength, but all that won't matter if they could not touch me. I twisted between two wolves, slashing their chests open before they could even lift their hands, and I acted like what I just did was overwhelming and so time consuming that there was an opening. One of the wolves thought it was a real opening and my foot was up his chin before he could even take three steps. I literally blitzed through them, I was pissed and I was also enjoying myself deep down. I was free and I was putting people down as they got in my way.I spared a second to glance over at Ramon. His fighting speed was slower than normal and it got me distracted for a while and normally the rogues were supposed to at
Lucinda POVMy eyes left Kira immediately I heard the howling sounds. We glared at each other and we didn't need words to communicate again. I knew I seemed to have disowned my people and I swore I would never help them again, but whatever it is, I did on instinct. Maybe I am a good person, that fact isn't something I want to dwell on, but when I heard those screams I knew I had to do something instinctively, our little squabbles were inconsequential at the moment. She broke into a sprint before me and she half dragged me along. She knew I would follow, it was instinctive, it was that instinct that drew us together because fundamentally, we weren't all that different, we had the same sense of morals and primal character. We were in a way meant for each other, but all that didn't matter now. I pushed forward, leaping forward as my heart beat faster with each step. I needed to know what was going on, Kira breathed heavily behind me. Our strides matched as we drove through the forest
Lucinda OVI ran forward as he sprinted into the woods. I didn't think I had much on my mind when I rushed through that forest, because I didn't even think I saw where I was going. I felt leaves brush at my face and I didn't even care, all my attention was focused on him. Ramon didn't look back, he needed to be away and for most of the part I didn't think he knew I was following him, he was so much entwined with his own thoughts, and all I cared for was him. I felt my body tremble, my heart palpitating. At a point in time someone was sobbing, but I didn't think it was me, although no one was around. I felt something stuck in my throat and I whimpered, my face was twisted in a sad manner. I didn't think I have ever felt anyone's pain this much. “Ramon!” I called for him and I think for the first time, he realized I was around. He paused and he turned around. Even in this manner, he still looked rather cute, but there was a lot of things going on so I couldn't really dwell on that.
