They say you wouldn’t know what happened unless you try. If Lucas was actually telling the truth that the choker activated the moment I stepped further away from the barn and his property.

I want to try, test the waters, one step at the time. One step away from the barn, I stopped and tried to feel my neck. Nothing happened. I tried two steps and still, nothing happened.

I gained more courage and stepped a few more steps and still the choker hadn’t activated.

So I concluded Lucas was lying and started running away. Jace said we need to be patient but no, I figured it out, the more I stay with the sicko vampire, the more I’ll become vulnerable. And I don’t want that.

My bare feet padded against the dirt, grass, and twigs beneath me. I had been running for what felt like an eternity. The sun was now beating overhead and sweat dripped down my forehead from the heat. My lungs ached and burned with each breath, and my legs were about as useful as jello. I needed to stop, try and find s

  • The Pain Of Rejection   Chapter 69: Unexpected Encounter

    Once I couldn't run any further, I ducked behind a tree and tried to catch my breath. The figure had just been walking, so I figured I had some sort of a lead. I knew I couldn't outrun the thing forever though. Eventually, they would grow tired of the chase and catch up to me. That's why I have to find somewhere to hide. I think that is my best chance at escaping this. I looked around wildly, trying to spot somewhere to hide. I suddenly noticed a tree not too far ahead, that had low-hanging branches and thick pine needles. I looked around me to make sure the coast was clear, then got up and sprinted for the tree as quietly as possible. Once in front of it, I realized that the branches were higher than I thought. I nearly screamed in exasperation before I lifted my good arm to grab hold of the lowest branch. It was up to my shoulder, but I thought that if I could hoist myself up it would be easier from there.Needless to say, it wasn't.The branches got further and further apart while

    I snuck a look to his face to see what he was thinking, and I regretted it almost immediately. He was staring at me hungrily. His hand slowly started to lift my shirt higher. I realized his intents and began to squirm, only making his grasp on my wrists tighter. He opened his mouth as if to say something before he was interrupted by the ringing of a telephone. I watched gratefully as he released my shirt and reached for his phone. I wasn't able to see who was calling, but when Derek saw the caller ID he spoke to me quickly. "Don't you make a sound." He growled in my direction before answering the phone."Yes, Hello Lucas." His tone changed completely as he spoke on the phone.Then it struck me. Was he speaking to the vampire? I was pretty sure he mentioned that his name was Lucas while admiring the artwork on my arm. If he was speaking to the vampire, I knew one thing. I didn't plan on making a single sound. After a slight pause Derek spoke into the phone. "Yes, I know I said I wou

  • The Pain Of Rejection   Chapter 71: Derek's Plan

    It was all taken away so fast. Walking along the forest with Derek was the first time it really hit me. I wasn't free anymore. I hadn't even made it 2 days. Derek was taking me back to slavery, bondage, and torture.Was his plan really going to work, though? Would I be sold to a different Master? Is Derek lying and taking me for himself?Whatever he did, didn't matter. What mattered was that I was back in a captor's grasp, unable to get free. The other day was probably the only chance I'd have at freedom, and it was taken away. I doubt that I'll ever have a chance to run like that again.Even if I did manage to run away, what would that accomplish? Lucas would still be out there, along with Derek. They would always find me and bring me back.And if I made it to civilization? Well, naturally I would tell the police that I was kidnapped and sold to vampires.Either that or anyone I spoke to would be in danger. If Lucas found me while I was with someone, they'd be dead for sure.That th

  • The Pain Of Rejection   Chapter 72: To be Auction Again

    I sat in a dark room with cement walls and flooring. There was no furniture in the room, and it added to the eeriness the room was making me feel. There were two doors inside, both metal, and both on opposite ends of each other. One sat in the far left corner of the room, and the other in the very middle. They were sealed from the outside and let no light stream through.I don't know how long I've been sitting in this room, but it feels like an eternity. All I could do was torture myself with my thoughts and think over the days activities.My mind clouded with memories as I replayed what happened today, trying to make sense of it all. Derek had taken me from the car and into this building,blindfolded.He didn't take the rag from my eyes until he dropped me in this cell. Once he did, he walked me to the door on the far left of the room, opened it, and shoved me inside. I was beyond perplexed at what I saw. He threw in some clothes after me, told me I had ten minutes, then left. The ro

    Derek and I walked through the door and I was met with a blinding light. I stumbled along with Derek gripping my arm tightly, not given the chance to adjust to my surroundings. Before I knew it, I was being shoved to the ground on my knees. Fear started to ease into me and tears threatened to escape my eyes, but I stayed strong. I gave myself a minute to bow my head and rub my eyes, before looking up to meet the hundreds of eyes staring me down. Because of what happened last time, I was expecting to see hundreds of dead eyes staring at me coldly, with icy expressions plastering their faces. That was what I was prepared for, so when I looked up to see hungry wild expressions yelling and howling, shock overcame me. In front of me were dozens of men jeering and pumping their fists wildly. They looked at me and Derek with excitement bursting within themselves. My eyes darted around the room looking for some sort of humanity, but found none. I remembered at my last auction how I though

    Lucas’ gaze lingered on Derek threateningly for just a few moments before he looked over at me. I stared at him in horror as he looked back at me intently. His eyes were menacing and expression crazed.Suddenly, he screamed into the room and threw the doors he was holding behind him. They crashed loudly against the concrete wall and blankets of dust started falling around the room. I looked fearfully to the place where the doors landed and noticed a few legs sticking out from underneath them. My eyes flicked from the legs to Lucas’ face, which never left mine.I instinctively started crawling away from him as he advanced through the crowd. It seemed as if we were the only two in the room, and he was intent on getting to me. All the fear of when I was back in his care came back to me, making me hyperventilate. I remembered the pain, the loneliness, the despair, and it was too much. I couldn't go back to him. I wouldn't. Lucas smiled at me as if hearing my thoughts and started to come

    I was confused to say the least, and wary of him. I didn't know if this was some sort of act to gain my trust, or if it was real. Whatever it was though, I didn't care. As soon as Damon and Derek got me away from Lucas I was out of here. I'd run into the woods once more and this time I wouldn't get caught.We suddenly stopped running and I was laid down on the ground. I looked up to see Derek and Damon breathing heavily and looking at the forest around them. After a few moments of listening they seemed to decide that no one was following us, and sat down on the ground in unison. For the next couple of minutes everything was quiet as they caught their breath. I looked down at the ground while they relaxed and listened intently to the forest around me. I knew how smart Lucas was and I didn't think we'd lost them.Derek suddenly got up causing my head to snap up and watch his movements. He ignored me while he walked away and spoke to Damon. "I'm going to find water and food." He was ab

    I slowly turned my head around to confirm my suspicions. Lingering over me maliciously was my old master, Lucas. I jumped away from him in terror and took several steps back to where Damon and Derek stood petrified. I slowly started to shake my head, denying the terrors that lay in front of me.Lucas stood burning in the setting sun. His suit was torn and hanging at odd angles, and his normally perfect hair sat greasy and unkempt on his head. Burns was starting to emerge all over his body from the sun, but he didn't seem fazed in the least. Jace seemed to want to help him but Lucas dismissed him. Jace was watching us b but I could see in his eyes the disappointment.Lucas looked towards me with malice and hunger in his eyes."What? Didn't my dear Carrie miss her Master? I know I missed my slave." His eyes darkened at the last word and he briskly started to walk towards me. I walked backward away from him until I bumped into Derek and Damon, who still stood petrified. When I nocked in

  • The Pain Of Rejection   Epilogue

    Madoka had frozen in shock when I had informed him of the news that we were getting an addition to our little family. Once he recovered, he picked me up and spun me around in excitement.He managed to impregnate me without my heat, so I guess all those cringey informational videos and parental lectures they'd subjected us to in our teenage years had been valid.Telling Madoka I was pregnant again had been easy, because I had always been able to tell him everything since the moment we discovered we were mates.Spencer, on the other hand, I was worried about. He was five years old now, and he had been the sole centre of my adoration for as long as he'd existed. Meeting Nathan was the best thing I did and now I learned that I am pregnant after so long. But I was still nervous. Madoka probably wasn't expecting it either. His attitude was comforting, although it was a bit annoying how he always took everything in stride while I was busy being stressed out. It always took a lot to get him

  • The Pain Of Rejection   Chapter 149: Pregnancy issue

    Carrie's point of viewI woke to the light of dawn hitting my eyes, and I instantly recognized that I was lying on some velvet bedsheet and remembered what had happened.Madoka was still sleeping beside me, his breathing deep and even, and normally I would not have bothered him. Last night was so intense. And we did it all through the night. That was a new experience with Madoka, I was eager for more. What he had done to my body was amazing and helped satisfy that ache for a long time and what he had done was...interesting"Madoka?"I watched him as he moved slightly but not opening his eyes. I liked his dumbstruck reaction and his satisfaction more than anything else, and I especially liked the way he seemed so unusually relaxed afterwards. He always seemed so tense, but for once, it seemed like he had not a care in the world, and it had been me who had done that to him. I understand it. We were separated many times.I slept in his arms in just a t-shirt and panties. I was about to

  • The Pain Of Rejection   Chapter 148: Together again

    I turned the corner to find the open foyer with the beige spiral stairs. Golden lights mounted on the walls protected by zigzag semitransparent glass. It gave the walls an elegant glow with jagged slices of lights against the exposed brick wall.Annoyed, I stepped inside to leave through the front gate when suddenly, high heels clicked against the grey stone tiles stealing my attention, halting me in place. I waited for the woman to pass.Tall slender legs appeared from behind the wall. The lighting made her legs look like molten caramel. The navy silk dress slid behind as she stepped forward revealing her silky thighs. Her long hair waved around her perfectly semi moon ass. My gazed caressed up her hips to her luscious chest that were barely hidden by the scrap of clothing hanging of her creamy shoulders.My lower region tightened. It's been a while since someone evoked an arousal like that from me. Actually, no one had ever been able to evoke the fire I left inside. My eyes finally

    Madoka’s Point of ViewCarrie has returned. I was so excited to finally come back home despite her strong warning not to come for her. My wolf has been angry. He kept on pushing me to come and save her. The long agonising days finally ended and she came home victorious. Not only did she kill Lucas, she also set herself free from the potion. Now, she’s back as the real Carrie who loved her pack and her family. She was fine and doing her Luna duties. Other than not wanting to eat any food that our omega has cooked for, everything seemed fine. “Babe, can you please look out for Spencer? I’m tired. I want to sleep,” she said and stood up from her desk. “Sure, babe,” I answered her back but I knew something was off. She hasn't eaten even a bit and when asking Marcus and Brigit about what happened to her, they would always answer that there’s nothing wrong with her. But I knew something was wrong. That night, I was about to enter our room when I heard a crashing sound inside. I immedi

    I walked in through the doorway, sighing loudly. It had been a long and trying day. I didn’t look around me too closely as I laid the keys on the counter and collapsed on the couch.My legs hung off the edge with my feet dangling above the ground. I swayed slightly while closing my eyes, trying to find some peace on this day. It has been scheduled that tonight, we will go back to my pack. “Carrie.” I jumped slightly at the noise suddenly coming from behind me. Without opening my eyes, I knew who it was. I sighed internally at the thing drawing me away from my relaxation.“Carrie.” The voice spoke again, now in a normal tone.I groaned and split my eyes open, letting cracks of light appear in my vision. “What do you want?”The light in my vision dimmed as the figure of Brigit appeared. Her hair fell over her face and into mine, tickling my forehead. I groaned again, louder now, knowing what she wanted me to do.“Come on. It’s been too long and you know you’re tired.” Brigit disappeare

    I slowly descended upon his convulsing body, prey now becoming predator. I put my other hand around his neck wringing it in the process, preparing to end this once and for all. I stared down at the monster's frame, no remorse hitting my body. All there was, was a bloodthirsty motive to kill him. As I leaned over his head, a hand on my shoulder tried to whip me around. I turned to face Brigit, a bloodied, broken, and bruised Brigit. I relaxed when I realised it was her, before questioning her move. "Let go of me, I'm going to finish this." I turned back around with her hand still gripping my shoulder. My hands shook and my vision was dark, but I was going to kill this monster once and for all. "Let’s do this together" Brigit started. I looked at her incredulously before he continued on. "We will end this monster once and for all." Her eyes searched mine and I saw the worried expression she held. I was surprised at her words and struggled to form my own. "But-I-Brigit you can hardl

    "I'm ok." My whisper seemed to echo through the Hall. I listened to it as it escaped my lips, knowing I was far from alright. Memories from my life kept fading in and out of my mind. They were almost as painful as the poison running its course through my veins. "We can't stay here anymore." Brigit sounded next to me." They heard your screams and know we're here. We have to hide somewhere else."As she was speaking she lifted herself from the floor we had been crouched in. She attempted to help me up as well, but failed in the effort. Her arm was still badly wounded and she could barely stand herself. As she looked to see if the coast was clear, I lifted myself off the ground as well. Every inch of my being burned, but I knew our only chance was to get out of here. Just as we were emerging from the foliage, a sweet voice met my ears. "Girls, where do you think you're going?" I stared in horror at what once was my friend. Her calm and cool collection from earlier was gone, replaced

    If I was lucky, the shadow of the gigantic sofa would swallow me and leave no trace of where I was.I waited, breathless, for what seemed like hours. In reality, barely seconds had passed. I heard footsteps drawing near to me, heavy on the tiles beneath them. They came quickly towards where I lay, but stopped feet away. I could hear whoever it was panting hard, clearly out of breath.“Carrie?” A quiet whisper rang out in the night.I recognized the voice immediately, and sprang from my spot on the floor.“Brigit, I’m here.” I whispered back to her.I saw her face turn towards me, and her body relaxed. She ran towards where I was, half standing on the ground.“Thank god you’re safe. I thought I was too late.” She helped me up and brought me into her arms in a rushed hug. “Now come on, we’ve gotta get out of here. We don’t have a lot of time. Lucas’s minions are still lurking in this house. We need to hide and go far from them.”Brigit grabbed my arm and began to lead me back to the mai

    Thoughts swarmed my mind. Why would they hesitate? I don’t understand. Leonardo lingered over me, breathing heavily with rage. "By the time you die, you'll be nothing but bones. Once this poison is in your system, I'm afraid there's no going back. You are so dumb Carrie. You’re trying to kill every one of my kind and yours." His voice was low, almost a whisper. It seemed the time for yelling was gone. Now there was a rage so malicious and a hint of fear. I wished he would scream.I smirked. “Well, that would be fun. Even if I die, I’m dragging you two with me.” My voice came out in calm breaths. The burning inside of me was still growing. “It’s such sight seeing fear in your eyes, Lucas. What happened to the proud and ambitious vampire?”Lucas looked at me with disgust."Oh, my dear Carrie. Haven't you figured it out yet?" I met his question with a glare, at which he responded, laughing. "This 'poison' you and Brigit keep talking about isn't a poison. It's a weapon. But not just
