2024-10-29 19:42:56**Olivia's POV**
“You're worthless. You absolutely know how to do nothing!” Mother yelled as she dragged me from the kitchen by my hair. I held her hand and winced in pain. When we got to the living room, she pushed me to the floor.
“Just look at how useless you are! The moon goddess should have killed you the moment I gave birth to you. I would have ended you from birth if I knew this is what you would become,” She snapped, and tears rolled down my cheeks. “Just look at you. You're a mute, who can't even form a correct sentence. You don't know how to do anything, either. I regret having you as my daughter!” She snapped again.
How could a mother say such a thing to her child? Was being this way my fault? None of this was my fault. Being mute wasn't either. I just happened to be a victim of the cruel side of fate. I tried to open my mouth to speak to her; to tell her that this wasn't my fault, and to make her know that she should at least show me some atom of love.
My life has been hell on Earth. I turned 18 today and no one gave a damn about it. All through my life, I've been mistreated and judged for what isn't my fault. And as always, she would always compare my little brother to me, making me feel even worse than I already felt.
“I'm going to make sure you starve for breaking that dish today, Olivia. You will be punished severely.” She snapped and walked away.
I forced myself up and dragged my feet to my room. I wasn't moved by getting starved anymore. It was something I was already used to as a result of the numerous punishments I had received from her. I had no hope, no one to fight for me. No one to tell me that it was going to be fine.
If my mother was this abusive, at least my father and brother should be more considerate, but no, it wasn't like that at all. My father was the worst of them all. There wasn't a day that passed that he didn't remind me of how worthless I was. My brother wasn't left out either.
I slid out of my clothes and sniffed.
The only hope I held on to was finding my mate at the mating ceremony when I turned eighteen. I am very sure he would take me away from these monsters, give me a better life and help me heal from this torturous thing called “mute”
And fortunately, the mating ceremony was taking place in the Golden Arc Pack today. I would finally get my mate and leave this place. I couldn't wait.
I quickly took my bath and flipped through my stack of worn out clothes. I picked the manageable one and smiled as I stared at my reflection in the mirror.
“Olivia, you're going to find your mate today. Your life is about to change for the better, so smile for it will be over soon.” I mentally encouraged myself and exhaled.
Today was the day.
****
My eyes widened at the numerous number of people gathered to grace the occasion. When I entered the vicinity, all eyes darted on me immediately. I sighed as they threw disdainful looks my way. Yeah, I was known as the useless mute, who doesn't stay in a place; hated and disregarded by all, but I didn't care because everything was going to change today.
I ignored their stares and watched how the mating ceremony was being done. I smiled as I watched wolves sniff their mates out and with passing time, I started to get nervous. I had numerous questions going on in my head; questions like how long would it take for me to get mine? And if I do, will he accept me?
I anxiously waited for something to happen, but nothing did. I started panicking, and my heart began to race. What on earth was going on? I decided to be patient still and waited. Seconds flew to minutes, then to hours and still nothing happened.
The mating ceremony came to an end and people started dispersing. I wasn't called forward, nothing happened. My hope shattered and tears rolled down my cheeks. I didn't know what to think or what to do? Did the moon goddess hate me to the point of not giving me a mate?
I sat there for a while and let my tears roll down my cheeks freely. I knew what was waiting for me at home. Another round of abuse and insults. Coming home without any positive results was going to be another hell of a day for me, but I had nowhere to go.
I wiped my tears and stood up.
Immediately I got up, there was this strange aura I noticed. The surrounding atmosphere seemed to change a bit and I looked around, wondering what was going on. I held the hem of my dress and started leaving.
When I turned, I could see that the eyes of the male wolves present had turned red and bloody. Fear gripped me when their fangs shot out, and they gathered themselves together, approaching me. I instinctively started taking steps back.
“Mate!” They growled as they advanced towards me, and my eyes widened. What the heck were they talking about?
The way they looked at me like they wanted to attack or possess me sent cold shivers down my spine. Instantly, I turned to run, and they grabbed me, pulling me into their midst.
My eyes widened, and I tried to run, but they held me and dragged me back. I opened my mouth to plead with them, but couldn't.
“Mine!” They growled and held on to my dress.
I yanked their hands away and made a run for it, but they caught me.
“What the hell is going on here?”
Everyone stopped when that voice came. It was so cold and authoritative that it sent chills down my spine. I stood up to see meet his gaze and something moved within me.
It was at that moment I knew.
This man was my mate.

**Devon's POV**“What the hell is going on here?” I asked the men, who were forcefully holding a lady.They all stopped and she looked up. When our gazes met, something stirred within me. She was the one; she was the one with the scent that clouded my mind a few minutes ago. I had come to the mating ceremony with the sole aim of finding my mate. I've searched for her for years but hadn't found her and came because of that but was disappointed when nothing happened.I was about to leave when a sweet smell hit my nostrils. It smelt like Lavender together with roses, and I knew the smell was coming from my mate. I followed it and it led me here.“Mate!” I growled and walked closer to them.They moved away from her due to fear, and she ran into my arms, taking me by surprise. My eyes widened when she deepened the hug, but it was like she realized something and pulled away from the hug immediately.I held her chin up and looked into her eyes. Something seems off about her.

**Olivia's POV**My eyes fluttered open, but I suddenly closed it because of the light that radiated through the window. After adjusting to the light, I fluttered my eyes open and gasped at where I was— in the dungeon.What in the world am I doing in the dungeon?The last thing I remembered was being dragged by the guards and calling the Alpha for help. They might think I'm mute, but I'm not completely mute. There are some voices I can still form, and it works when I'm in desperate need of help.I looked around and facepalmed. Did he really bring me to the dungeon? When I called, and he turned and walked towards me, I thought he was bringing me to stay with him, but no, he put me in the dungeon.I sighed as the last hope I had in me vanished completely. It would be better if I stopped putting my hopes high like this.I looked around the dungeon and saw diverse kinds of slaves. Some were old men while others, children. The ones that were older than me had been taken by the other master

**Olivia's POV**He wants me to be his maid?I looked at him shockingly. What he just said was difficult to believe and no matter how I tried to make myself believe? It just wasn't working. How could he do this to me? I looked at him with glassy eyes.He stared back at me, his eyes held so much hate and resentment. “You might be probably hurt by what I said, but I am not taking back my words. This isn't how it should be. We aren't meant to be,” He said, and my heart broke. “I don't want a weak wolf as my mate, it can't work that way,” He sipped his wine and tears rolled down my cheeks.I could sense the hurt in his voice, and it broke my heart the most. It wasn't my fault that I became mute, it was never my fault. Who was I kidding, thinking I could be accepted like this? He thinks I'm weak, and I don't blame him at all. His thoughts might also be fueled by the fact that whenever I get into trouble, I may not be able to ask for help. He wouldn't even want to help me anyway.How do I t

**Olivia's POV**“Just know that it's going to sting… a lot.” The other lady smirked and I gasped.“Come on, Candice. You don't have to make her feel scared.” The doctor folded her hands.“I'm not trying to make her feel scared, Susan. I'm only stating the facts. Suppressants hurt a lot.” She chuckled.Suppressants? What were they giving me suppressants for? I looked at the doctor with a panic stricken face. She sighed.“Don't be scared, okay? This is for your own good. You're a Stealer wolf, and it would be dangerous for you to roam about, since all the unmated and widowed wolves are after you. With this suppressant, we'd be able to cage that stealer wolf in you and make your scent unperceivable for them. I hope you understand what I mean?” She asked and I nodded.“Can't she talk, or is she too terrified to speak?” Candice asked, and I lowered my head.“She's a mute.” The doctor replied and took the syringe.“What!” Candice burst out laughing. The doctor hit her and glared at her. S

Olivia's POV“We need you to poison Alpha Devon and lock his wolf.” He dropped the bomb and my eyes widened.What the heck!I knew it. I knew there was a reason why my father would come to me and speak so nicely to me. He dared to come to me to ask for my help in poisoning my mate. I knew immediately that the only reason he was speaking kindly to me was that he needed something from me.Even though he had treated me poorly in the past, I was still shocked that he would ask me to do something so terrible.I couldn't believe that my father would want me to harm someone like Devon.I was confused. I stared at him as a surge of anger began to well up within me."Listen to me, Olivia." He continued. "Devon doesn't love you. He is only with you because he doesn't want to stay without a mate.""You have to help your father. Remember that this is the only way you can prove to me and everyone else in the pack how useful you can be.""Perhaps it was for a time like this that you were sent to li

Devon's POV After eating my meal, I decided to stroll to the training ground to see how well she was doing. I knew that she was willing to do whatever I said and it was just to please me. I wasn't going to allow her to know that she could please me so easily too. I strolled, to the training ground, expecting to find her there. At least she was supposed to have started the training. I was surprised when I got there and I didn't see her. "Maybe she had to take a detour. For someone as naive as her, things were bound to catch her interest." I had told myself that, at least I believed it to be true. But then even after twenty minutes, she hadn't shown up. Somewhere, I began to feel worried. What if the drugs which the doctor gave her weren't potent enough and wore out? Did it mean that she was in danger? I started pacing to and fro. About fifteen minutes after, I noticed someone approaching from the corner of my eye. I stopped my paving abruptly and behold, it was her. She looked

Olivia's POV What just happened? Bad enough that he had insulted me and insinuated that I was acting like a slut, but he still punished me. I knew that something was wrong when I noticed that man whispering to him. Now I don't know what he heard. He seemed so angry and it hurts me. I hate having to be the source of his anger. He said I would train thrice as hard. That meant I would go harder and might end up staying out for eighteen hours rather than the usual six. It also meant that I would not eat until I was done with the training. I sighed. Food was not my problem, I had been starved for so long that not eating felt like a normal thing and eating felt like a luxury. Well, it's a luxury I can't afford for now. Devon had called me weak, stupid, idiot, foolish, useless, a liar, and a slut. It was high time I changed all of that. I was going to prove to him that I am better than he imagines. I will show him that I can be strong, I am not weak. I am neither stupid nor useless. Bu

Beta Brent's POVAfter discussing with Olivia during the day, I couldn't return home. Somewhere I kept having this feeling that she had been caught. I knew what kind of trouble she would enter if she was caught with me. Not just that, she could lose any form of trust which Devon had developed for her.That was going to jeopardize our plans. Nevertheless, I returned to the pack house. The Alpha summoned me immediately after he heard I had returned."Brent, tell me you succeeded." He said. "I don't think it would be that hard to convince that girl. She is too gullible and naive.""It was kind of hard," I confessed. "The girl has formed a deep-seated hatred in her heart for me, she refused to even let me touch her.""I did tell you then to be careful about how you treated her. I told you there would be used for her one day but you never listened to me." He accused. "Now you can see? We need her but she is keeping a grudge.""Well, what do you expect me to do? How did you expect me to go

For this has done this before.I addressed the pack concerning the battle with the tyrant, Rodrigo. A few warriors were assigned to guard the palace with all their strength.We were ready, dressed, swords in our hands and guns too for the battle that was about to take place.Just then sounds of hooves on the ground and approaching cars could be heard from a distance."It's now or never," Damian said to me.

Devon's POVThe sudden appearance of the red moon was quite baffling. It arrival before it said date took us off guard. The pack guards went in search of the sage in the caves but as usual there was nothing. Perhaps, this was just a facade of the red moon? I pondered.I got back to the palace and Olivia was not in her room. I asked about her from Gabi and she told me Olivia was in the garden.I got there and saw her staring at a plant. "Hey, love. What are you looking at?" I asked her."Hi, um, it's this green plant, it shines but it won't let me uproot it," she replied."Let me see," I said as I drew nearer to the plant. It was the sage! "My, it's the sage," I said in excitement.She grinned. "Well, uproot it!" She said to me. I tried to uproot it but it wouldn't. This was just a plant and not a tree, yet it was hard to uproot. I tried severally but it would not come out of the ground. "How about we do it together?" She suggested. I agreed and when we did, the sage came off so easily

Devon's POVThe more she lied the more she infuriated me. "You don't know what I'm talking about?" I asked her again and she stared at me. "Fine," I added as I dialled Damian's number. "Bring the girl in," I said into the phone and then hung up.A few minutes later, Damian walked into the house with Trisha who was frightened. Candice could not hide the horror on her face."Will you claim not to know this woman?" I asked her."I don't know her," Candice replied with confidence."Stop lying!" Trisha yelled at her. "Look at what you've gotten me into. These guys came to the club and dragged me out like a loser. I warned you about this but you still indulged me into it by tempting me with what I love the most," Trisha said to Candice in anger."Liar! I don't know you!" Candice yelled at her."Trisha, repeat everything you told me about Candice in the car," I said to her.Trisha swallowed. "Candice and I are co-workers at the strip club," she began to say and Olivia was shocked. "She came

Candice's POVI returned back to the house and I saw Susan with a blanket wrapped her shoulder as she sipped a cup containing coffee I believe. "Why are you all wrapped up when it's barely chilling outside?" I asked her."I'm just thinking," she replied.I snickered as I sat down on the chair. "That's why you're all covered up," I said. "Well, how's Olivia?" I asked her.She shrugged. "Not so good. She's still inside," she replied."What must have happened? Why is she so shaken?" I asked."Well, Devon came by today. Turns out that the reason why Olivia is upset and quiet is because of him," she said with a sigh."Oh my, what happened?" I asked as I pretended as if I did not know what was going on."It turns out Olivia has a video of Devon cheating on her with some girl and some pictures too," she replied."What?" I exclaimed, pretending to be shocked. She nodded, buying all my pretentious act. Damn, I was a good actress!"It's so strange. Devon is so in love with Olivia. I can't belie

Devon's POVI got to Susan's place and she immediately opened the door. "Where is she?" I asked as I got in."She's in my room. She won't come out and I have been hearing crying sounds coming from there," she said as she led me to her room.We got to her room and there was Olivia laying face down on the bed in a red dress. "Olivia," I called her name and her body immediately stiffened before she turned around and got off from the bed. "What are you doing here?" She demanded with so much anger in her voice as she stared hard at me with puffy eyes."You're crying," I said going close to her."Don't you dare come close to me. Don't you dare!" She yelled out at me."Olivia, I'm sorry," I was burdened by her behavior as I apologized. I had no idea that the dinner date meant so much to her."Get out," she replied without looking at me."Olivia, I..." I began to say but she did not let me finish when she interrupted me."I said get out!" She yelled in anger."I'm sorry!" I yelled back, not

Damian's POVThe security personnel went through the CCTV footage but unfortunately, there was no sign of Devon leaving the hotel. He was only seen going into the men's room. I almost missed the next person that went in when I suddenly saw her and asked him to pause. "Zoom in," I said to him and he did. A woman was going into the men's room too. She had black hair, but her face could not be seen. "Hell, what is a woman going to do at the men's room," I pondered out aloud.The security personnel shrugged. "Is there no footage of the woman or Devon coming out of the men's room?" I asked him."No, sir. You can see from the footage that nothing like that happened and there doesn't seem to be any glitch anywhere in the system," he replied.I groaned inwardly. "Thank you very much," I said as I patted his shoulder."You're welcome," he replied as I walked out of the room. Where was Devon and who was that woman? I pondered deeply.I got back to the hotel hallway and spoke to the guards we ca

Olivia's POVI stumbled back in shock unable to believe my eyes. I held the chair to stable myself from falling.It was as if my eyes were deceiving me. I paused as the phone slipped down from my hand. Was this the launch Devon claimed to be at?Perhaps, images might be deceiving, but I had no idea what pushed me to leave the palace and get to the hotel.On getting there, another message came in, directing me to the room Devon was in. I walked up the stairs, used the elevators and I could feel my heart in my throat as I got out of the elevator.What would I see? I knew it would be something that I would not be able hold in. I got to the room and opened the door and lo and behold, before my very eyes, there was that same woman I saw yesterday humping over Devon.I closed my mouth in shock and pain as tears cascaded down my eyes. I left the door slightly ajar as I ran out of the hallway. I kept running till I was out of the hotel.I could not scream even when I possibly wanted to. My ha

Candice's POV"What?!" Trisha exclaimed, almost spitting her cappuccino in my face."Hush, calm down Trish," I said to her as I looked around the strip club, ensuring that no one was eavesdropping on us."What do you mean by calm down, Candice? That I should frame Devon up? Are you kidding me right now?" She literally yelled at me."You're not really framing him up, Trish," I replied."What do you call drugging a man in an hotel room, and taking pictures with him?" She demanded."Stop sounding like this is the first time you're doing such a thing," I frowned at her."And so? At least I know the kind of men I do such with. Not men like Devon and especially not Devon. Please, Candice!" She flared up.I slapped my forehead. "So, you're not going to do this?" I asked her."No amount of money will make me mess with someone like Devon. Count me out," she said as she stopped her cappuccino and turned away."Not even for half a million bucks?" I asked her and she paused and turned around."Ha
