Vishal.After hours of running from the Alpha King’s men, I finally cross the border and am now inside my pack’s territory.I sprint into the thick woods of the forest leading to the pack house. It’s the only way to lose their trail. I know it will be hard for them to spot me in these woods.I’ve never run this much in my life, but I’ve been on my heels since escaping the Alpha King’s prison. I’ve run a thousand miles, but his henchmen won’t stop coming after me. It’s as if they have no choice but to catch me; I don’t understand how they would come this far just to get me.I am panting heavily, desperately gulping in as much air as I can. My legs give out, and in the next moment, I shift into my wolf form. My body is unusually large for a wolf, unruly and gigantic in a way that seems reserved for alphas. Alpha Scott is only slightly larger than me. This immense form is a blessing from the Moon Goddess, and it seems she cares little that I am merely a Beta. She bestowed such a powerful
RichardI exhale heartily, climbing off Jane and falling to the other side of the bed, next to her naked sleeping body. It’s been two hours already, and I have spent it thrusting in and out of her. It’s not the first time I’ve had sex with her, but I enjoy it more today because she doesn’t fight me off much. Not that she doesn’t want to, but she can’t.The elixir I fed her tamed her strength, and now she is almost like a weak, wet puppy. She is defenseless, so I don’t need to tie her up anymore. All I need to do is undress her, spread her legs, and have my way with her. It has been total bliss, fucking her without her relentless fighting.I turn to her with a smirk on my face. Her nipples are wet from how much I sucked and bit them. Her pussy is still dripping wet from the many orgasms she has gone through. Still, my dick is hard and hungry for more. I’ve never been this addicted to any woman as I am to Jane. With her, I never get satisfied; I could fuck her a whole week straight and s
RichardTen years ago…The die was cast ten years ago. It was then that I earned the ‘ruthless’ tag and lived by it.I was born into the Alpha lineage of our pack. My father was the late Alpha, and as he grew old and sick, it became clear that it was only a matter of days before the Alpha ceremony would be held. There, the new Alpha would be crowned, and my father would give his blessings to his successor. The entire pack would swear allegiance to the new Alpha, marking the dawn of a new era.Now, if there was one thing I hated about being the son of my father, it was that I had eight brothers. I wasn’t even the first son; I was the fourth, so I wasn’t next in line to be the Alpha.My oldest brother was technically next in line to the Alpha position, followed by his sons, and then his sons’ sons. My descendants and I would never get the chance to become Alpha; we would be as useless as worn-out clothes.We would be regarded as members of the Alpha lineage, but no respect would be given
Jane.I wake up a few minutes ago and find myself still naked on the bed, with my legs spread apart.The Alpha King isn’t by my side, and that is a big relief to me. I struggle to my feet, dragging myself to the bathroom. I take a quick shower, wishing and praying that the Alpha King doesn’t barge in and force himself on me again.I stare at my reflection in the mirror and the bruises on my cheek. It makes me cry. How long am I going to stay with this abusive man? How long do I have to pawn my body to him and allow him to hurt me in whatever way he pleases?My whole body will soon be covered in bruises, marks, and scars. What if he kills me sooner or burns a part of my body?The Alpha King is a damned maniac, and there’s no saying what his crazy self can do at any point in time. Fighting him isn’t doing the trick anymore, especially now that he has weakened my strength with his elixir. I can’t even punch him if I get the chance to; I feel completely drained and useless. I need saving;
Vishal I have dinner with Karen, Alpha Tommy, Scott, my parents, Ella, and Ray. They all come over to the pack house, and we share a table. It is a good bonding time and the only way I can reassure them that I am fine. Karen insists on calling Ray and Ella, even though I tell her over and over again that there is no need for that. When they get her message, they leave their pack and race down here. Ella doesn’t stop fussing over me, asking me repeatedly if I am really okay. Mother cries a lot after seeing my wounds and scars; it is almost impossible to get her to quiet down. All through dinner, she keeps glancing at me, spoon-feeding me, and asking if any part of my body is hurting. It is kind of cringy, but then, that’s mothers and their unending doting on their children, no matter how grown we are. When dinner is over, Mother offers to clear the table alongside Karen. Father is seated and discussing a few things with Alpha Tommy. Scott, Ella, and I excuse ourselves and take a wal
Vishal “Nah, don’t worry about it, man. It’s nothing...” Ray forces a smile to try to convince me. But it does not work; I heard Ella clearly, and the only thing I’m asking is that she repeats herself. “Don’t you lie to me, dude. I heard your mate. What the hell did she say the Alpha King did to Jane?!” They both exchange glances but still do not utter a word. “Tell me!” I yell angrily, and Ella flinches, while Ray sighs. “Chill, man,” Scott says, tapping my shoulder. This is the first word he has said since we came out. He’s always been a man of few words. “We’re sorry, Vi. But we couldn’t do anything to prevent it. The Alpha King already had her tied up before I visited her,” Ella explains. “And he already forced himself on her the night before I visited, so I really couldn’t do much to help her,” Ray adds. I clench my fist in anger. I’ve never craved killing someone as much as I crave killing the Alpha King right now. “I’m going to kill that Alpha King,” I sputter. My muscles
The Alpha KingIt has been two days since Luca comes to me, but there is still no word from him. No news about my illegitimate brother. I have been quite restless since then.My nights are shortened; I am awake most of the time, in deep thoughts. The scenarios that come up in my mind are horrible, and I hope they remain thoughts. The worst is picturing my half-brother taking over my position as Alpha King. It becomes a nightmare soon enough, haunting my dreams and my thoughts.Two days feel like an eternity. I need to know where he is, so I can end his miserable life, and the thoughts of him wouldn’t haunt my dreams anymore.But there is nothing else I can do but wait. Even though the waiting is killing me.“Eat up!” I grunt, holding out a fork full of noodles to her face. I am not much of a cook, but I prepare noodles for her.She is tied up in a chair, and her mouth is also gagged, but I roll down the piece of clothing I used in gagging her so she can at least eat. “I don’t want to,”
JaneHappiness has eluded me since I became a prisoner of the Alpha King. Ever since he separated me from my mate, I’ve known nothing but sorrow and tears.My heart races in panic whenever I think that Vishal might be dead. I never stop praying for him, pleading with the Moon Goddess to keep him safe.Through all the torture and abuse I’ve suffered at the hands of the Alpha King, through all the pain I’ve endured, I never stop praying for Vishal’s safety, not even for a second. He is all I think about, all I dream of, and when I hear he’s coming for me, my heartbeat kicks into overdrive.I can’t contain my joy knowing he is alive and has returned to his pack. My Vishal is alive! That gives me hope. I can already picture being in his arms, but I didn’t expect it to be this soon.Hearing his voice now feels surreal, and even though I haven’t seen his face yet, I know it’s him. It’s Vi. He’s here! Oh goddess, thank you so much. I never expected it to be this soon.Even though I recognize
CHAPTER 32 – RICHARD (PARALLEL UNIVERSE)"Who's next?!" Ray yells, as the scruffy, haggard lady scrams out of the office. "Let's just tell them all to go fuck themselves!" I snap at Ray, slamming my hands on the table. Just then, the door opens and another female walks in. She's a little better dressed than the last female, but she's still not Jane, and I'm getting fucking impatient!"Relax, man. We'll get you a fine-ass secretary. I promise." Ray whispers to me, rubbing my arm. His hair is tousled from the stress and I feel a bit of sympathy for him."With the sorry excuses of females walking in through that door, I highly doubt that," I reply with a hiss, standing abruptly that my seat topples behind me.The loud crashing sound makes her flinch, and she lowers her head. I can see her finger quivering in fright around her résumé. She's dead scared from just a crashing sound. What happens if she accidentally gets hired and has to listen to me yell and cuss her ass out every day? She'
CHAPTER 31 - JANE (PARALLEL UNIVERSE)I walk out of the grocery store, steadying the grocery bags in my arms. They're heavy and filled to their brim. It's only a matter of time before I'm tired and need to get a taxi. But for now, I'll just try to enjoy the walk."Jane, wait up!" June sprints slightly to meet me, as we take the sidewalk, heading home. The street is rowdy and crowded so we keep squeezing through bodies and sometimes, bumping into others."Why don't we just grab a taxi already? It's tiring carrying these bags and bumping into people." I sigh, adjusting the weights on my arms. This definitely isn't what I signed up for."Going home with a taxi will make us get home faster, and that's gonna ruin everything.""Ruin what?" I ask confusedly."Your little time outside," June replies, flipping her hair. "C'mon Jane, you've spent weeks brooding and wallowing in misery. You refused to leave the apartment. This is your first time out, in two weeks. You should enjoy the fresh air
CHAPTER 30 - VISHAL (THE FIRST UNIVERSE)Watching the leaves fall from the tree is a little medicinal and it eases a bit of the suffocation I'm feeling in my heart. My fingers are loosely wrapped around the glass of brandy in my hand. I sip from it again, not letting my eyes off the window. It's a bright day and full of good energy but I feel more gloomy than I ever have. Jane has been gone for over a week and there's still no news about her disappearance. Richard has disappeared too. No trace of him or his feral werewolves. It feels like they all just…disappeared. For real. I've combed the entire pack and beyond in my desperate search for my mate, Jane. I've contacted every Alpha of the packs in the region to be on the lookout and let me know if they see her. But no one has any news about her or Richard.It's been frustrating and agonizing for me, waking up each day alone and knowing that my mate is somewhere out there but I can't find her. I take another chug of my brandy, savori
CHAPTER 29 - JANEI stare blankly at him as he gives a husky chuckle strolling to his chair. He pushes it back and slides into it, crossing his legs. I don't bother sitting, so I just remain standing and staring at him.His smirk is flirtatious as he boldly undresses me with his eyes. His eyes linger longer on my lips and he bites his lower lip."So tell me, what's it gonna be?" His husky, deep voice reverberates in the room. My skin flushes from the heat growing between us."Please, Sir. Why don't we talk about this again? Hear me out, please. I don't think·""You're not supposed to think, Jane!" He cuts in, impatiently. "I'm not making an impossible proposal here, so don't make things difficult.""More than you already did?" I ask calmly, but my nerves are ripping apart."I think you got the wrong conception about my proposal, Jane. I'm not making things difficult. On the contrary, I'm here to give you a smooth ride in life." He pushes open the drawer and takes out a checkbook.I wa
CHAPTER 28 – JANE (Parallel Universe)I take a sip of my coffee, and then a bite of my cookies. I don't have much appetite, especially because my mind is running wild. I can't stop thinking about what I'll be telling my boss today. Will I accept his proposal or is it safe to say I'm gonna be officially unemployed starting today?I'm nervous as hell and I just can't stomach the sweet breakfast I made. I can't even relax. My boss occupies my mind and my heart is racing in anxiety. What do I do? How do I solve this problem without losing my job?I can't afford to be unemployed. I got too many bills to pay, that I just can't afford to be unemployed. But fucking my boss doesn't sound appealing either. So what do I do?"Good morning!" June's voice distracts me from my thoughts. I look up and see her coming down the stairs."Hey, girlfriend. Good to see you're finally awake." I smile at her. She kisses my cheek and struts to the kitchen."I had a nice sleep. Thank you so much for not waking
CHAPTER 27 – RICHARDThe rage that's jabbing at every inch of my nerves is rather monstrous. And if whoever just spilled his drink on me doesn't have a fucking valid reason, I just might snap his neck. I don't care. I've had enough frustrating moments to last the night. I don't need to endure this bullshit."Are you fucking blind or what?!""I'm so sorry…I'm sorry, I didn't·" the voice stops talking.My rage drops a notch as I see who the words are from. It's a female. A sexy human female. Not a werewolf. She's drunk, like fucking tipsy, and even though she's trying to be steady, she keeps slipping and bumping into random bodies.I'm not sore how seeing a drunk, sexy human should make me feel, but right now, I'm fucking pissed and it's all thanks to her whiskey drenching my outfit. The fact that she's almost naked despite her black lace shorts and the lacy top doesn't suffice my rage. It didn't even get my dick hard. Irritation is all I feel right now.She's staring deep into my eyes
CHAPTER 26 - RICHARD"I'm fine, dude. Told you already. I bumped my head into something hard and my memories are lagging a bit. But other than that, I'm fucking fine. Don't worry." I say in a firm voice, trying to convince him.He nods, sipping his drink in silence. I'm not dense. I can see on his face that he doesn't believe me a hundred percent. He's probably just tired of bugging me about it, and that's why he's pretending to believe me. But then, I don't honestly care if he believes me or not. I just hope he doesn't bother me anymore with his irritating questions about why I'm acting differently. I'm sick and tired of telling the same lies. He should just give it a rest.We sip our drinks in silence, and I, for once, turn to the crowd to see what's going on. The place is filled with naked, aroused human bodies, caressing each other and fighting to get some pleasure. There's an object of excitement at the podium, I assume, 'cause the men wouldn't quit whistling in that direction.
CHAPTER 25 – RICHARD"One more bottle of tequila!" I yell out to the bartender, twirling the shot glass in my loose grip. My eyes are getting heavy from a couple of drinks I've had. But it doesn't matter. I plan on getting fucking wasted tonight. The bartender places the bottle in front of me and Ray reaches to grab it. I beat him to it, grabbing the bottle and turning the other way to pour myself a drink."That's enough, man. You drinking way too much." Ray sighs behind me. "Not as much as I plan on," I reply briskly, placing the bottle on the counter. I chug down my drink and it heats my throat, leaving me with a strong urge to pour myself another glass. You could say I'm a fucking addict, but tequila has always been it for me."Dude, what are you talking about? We both know you've never been a good drinker. Booze drives you insane. Makes you do the craziest things. Isn't that why you quit drinking? What the hell is going on with you tonight?!"Yeah, right. I scoffed at his lectur
CHAPTER 24 - JANE (Parallel universe)"Tell me. How did it happen? What did you do? Why did he make such a proposal out of the blue? Or has this been going on for a while?" June fires me a lot of questions. Her brown eyes twinkle with curiosity mixed with a bit of…excitement? "No. It was literally out of the blue. I got to work. I was at my desk when he came in with his small entourage. Then his wife walked in too…""That cold hag." June snorts, making a face of disgust."June! Don't call her that." I reprimand her."But it's true. I'm in my mid-twenties and I still haven't seen any woman colder than your boss's wife. She's always dressed like some…""That's enough, June. Please." I say more firmly, shutting up whatever rude remarks she's trying to voice out. "Don't forget she's still my boss's wife. Show the woman a bit of respect.""Okay. Okay. Whatever." She scoffs, waving it off. "So what happened after that?""She walked into his office, and after a few minutes, she ran out in t
