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 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
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. 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
CHAPTER 1Lucinda’s POVThe room was almost silent except for the muffled sobs which escaped my lips.Memories of my mate calling me a pathetic wolf, echoed through my head, causing me to tremble. My wolf howled painfully in my head, and I clutched my chest, I felt my heart beat painfully in my chest. Trembling on the single bed, barely enough for one person, my hands pressed against my lips, trying their hardest to prevent my sobs from escaping.My mate was just outside the room of this rundown motel that he reserved just for tonight.This morning, he told me to make time for our date tonight and I was ecstatic and eagerly counted the hours till we had to meet, I never could have imagined my heart would be completely shattered before me like this.I was used to the Ill-treatment from the pack for being an omega, a very low-ranking wolf but I never expected this sort of cruelty from Alpha Killian, the Alpha of Crescent Moon pack, and my mate.Honestly, I knew he wasn't particularly
CHAPTER 2Lucinda’s POVI had cried enough, to the point I had no more tears left. I got down from the bed and got dressed up. I turned to the dirty mirror in the room and took in the dress I was wearing.It was a short black dress that hugged my curves perfectly. When I told my mother about my date with Alpha Killian this morning, she bought this dress for me, especially for this occasion. Now I realize how foolish I was. Foolish to trust someone wholeheartedly. Foolish to think an omega like me deserved love. The werewolves of today view Omegas as close to humans and I was the fool who thought Alpha Killian didn't.My phone suddenly buzzed with a text message, I brought it out from my purse and saw it was a message from Alpha Killian, ordering me to hurry up.Did he still think I would still go with him foolishly? I frowned, tossing my phone back on the bed, when it chimed again, with a text message, saying he was downstairs.Bastard!I'd rather die than be in the same space as h
CHAPTER 3Darcus’s POV“Attention, everyone.” A guy climbed the stage to announce. “We’ll be having a new entertainer joining us tonight. She’s fresh with a killer body.” It was a chaotic mix of booing and excited hollering amongst the crowd. Good for them, at least they were having fun, one way or the other. For me, it was almost another boring night with all those numerous whores dancing around me, not even one could excite my wolf.He climbed down, and a second later, a girl was pushed onto the stage. Her unfocused gaze was an indication of how intoxicated she was, the confusion masking her expression was a telltale of how lost she was.“Are you going to dance or what?!” Someone from the crowd yelled, his patience wearing thin. Her lips slightly parted as though she wanted to say a word but couldn’t. They even quivered a little.Fright and nerves wrinkled the space between her brows as she tried to walk…no, it was more like wobble off the stage but immediately scurried back as t
CHAPTER 4Lucinda’s POVI woke up alone in bed A faint, indistinct scent of Darcus lingered in the air, bringing the scenes of last night back to my mind. I had a wonderful night, to say the least, my wolf let out a contented howl, though my heart still ached because of my broken mate bond I had seen Darcus, the Lycan king countless times in the news and magazines. I always thought he was very huge and muscular but they didn't compare to how amazing he looked yesterday.Darn! What are all these thoughts? I never knew I could think like this. I never expected a one-night stand but to be honest with myself, I don't regret it.The moment I thought this was a betrayal of Alpha Killian, a sense of vengeful pleasure welled up in my heart. even if it was just self - deceptive.I'm sure I can let go of Killian now but I hope and pray to the moon goddess I never cross paths with him again. And I'm sure I won't meet King Darcus again either.Back to reality, I'm currently in a whore house and

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.
