Amelia's POV

True to my words that Cassius would never let me go, Elizabeth came to my room hours later and informed me with a grim face that Cassius had requested that I come to serve dinner with her.

Her face had been so downcast as she helped me into a dress and I shook, still so weak from all of the blood loss but knowing that I did not dare ignore the Master's request.

I was certain that he wanted to see what he had done to me and probably show off his pet to the wolves, but I wondered if he already knew what Damien had told me. About me being his mate.

Shaking my head, I knew that it was impossible. The minute Cassius knew that I was that valuable to Damien, he would milk the opportunity for everything he could get and when I was no longer needed or useful, he would slit my throat. Anything to make sure that he won.

"I tried to convince him that you are still very ill but you know how he is," Elizabeth said with a sigh as she placed me in front of the mirror. When she

    Amelia's POV"We have no time to waste, though I must tell you that you look sexier with your clothes off," Cassius said with a smirk that made my stomach turn but for the wrong reasons. I saw Damien stiffen, his hands fisting by his side as Cassius pulled me to his side. He kissed my forehead like we were a newly wedded happy couple. I fought the bile that rose in my throat at the subtle disgust on Damien's face. His eyes moved to where Cassius's hand was wrapped around my waist tightly and I fought the urge to wince as he unknowingly pressed on the wounds on my lower back with his arm. Or maybe he did know.The other wolf that had come with Damien entered the room and the tension reduced considerably as the attention of the men shifted from me to him. "I'm ready, Alpha." He said to Damien with his head inclined and I saw the way Cassius bristled when the wolf didn't incline his head when he looked at him. Damien nodded and clasped a hand on the wolf's shoulder. He turned to look

    Chapter 20Amelia's POVWhere was I?What happened?Those were the first questions that were on my lips when I opened my eyes and I winced, my hand going to my neck to find that there was a bandage. That was when all of the memories hit me. From when Elena had been asked to come and inform me that I was to wear a dinner dress to go and meet Cassius downstairs to actually realizing that he was not joking about going out with him. I should have known that nothing good was going to come out of that meeting. Especially after I had walked in and everyone else had either looked at me like I was a lamb to be offered up to slaughter or just had pure unadulterated disgust for the fact that I was human. Living with Cassius had already given me enough hindsight into how the supernatural world saw us. To them, we were nothing more than cattle. To be bred, used, and discarded whenever we outlived our usefulness. I wondered if it was the same way for Damien. Was that how he also saw humans? T

    Chapter 21 Amelia's POV I gasped, my heart pounding hard in my chest when Damien released my lips gently, biting on his lower lip as his eyes moved down to my swollen lips, his gaze asking for permission. I felt my nipples strain against the dress that I was wearing and my entire body sang as my chest moved up and down. "I'm going to kiss you again, Amelia. This is your chance to say no." He whispered, his lips hovering over mine and I stood no chance at all. Nodding, I gasped when his hands cupped my ass and lifted me from the bed to straddle him, my center aligned directly against the bulge in his trousers and his hand held the back of my head as he kissed me senseless. I melted against him, my entire body burning hot as I grabbed his shirt and moved gently, rocking against him. He groaned into the kiss, his tongue slipping into my mouth and I ran my hand through his air that felt soft like silk, my nipples rubbing against his chest. I had never felt this surge of need

    Chapter 22Amelia's POVThree pairs of eyes stared at me in shock and I looked away. I fought the urge to not blush as the memories of exactly what I had been doing in Damien's room after eating filled my memory. "So, what exactly is going on between the two of you? I mean, he can't just be nice to you all the time, right? He didn't eat anything last night and when he ordered food this morning, we had no idea that he was going to give it to you. There's something else going on, isn't there?" Elena asked, her eyes sharp and curious. I turned to Elizabeth for help and swallowed when I saw the expression she wore, her face filled with worry and concern. The smile that I had been forming on my face unconsciously as I remembered how Damien had touched the back of my neck and massaged it quickly disappeared. "You're blushing, oh my God, there is something, isn't there?" Blair asked and I shook my head immediately, frowning so that I wouldn't give myself away. The only two people that I

    Chapter 23 Amelia's POV Opening the door to my room when I was finally calm enough to think, I locked the door and turned around, gasping when I saw Elena sitting on the bed, her arms folded as she looked back at me with her brows raised. Her brown hair was up in a ponytail like it always was and her brown eyes narrowed when I kept standing by the door in surprise. "What are you doing here?" I asked and she rolled her eyes as she relaxed against the headboard. "I'm here for the truth, silly. Come and sit. Why are you so stiff like I'm going to bite?" She patted the bed gently and I realized that I was still in fight or flight mode because I was just coming from Cassius' room. Elena was my friend. She had proven time and time again that she was on my side and there was really no need to be afraid of her now, was there? Cassius must have had the desired effect he wanted because now I was agitated and felt like I was unable to trust anybody. Sitting on the edge of the bed, we

    Chapter 24Amelia's POVAs I entered the room, feeling Damien's presence behind me, I froze, my eyes landing on the bed and all of the memories of how he had kissed me came flashing back. 'Then, let me show you just how much you're wrong about that.' He had said.I fought the urge to close my eyes and envision just how his hands had felt on my body as he lifted me to the bed and how my insides had churned with need when he kissed a trail down my neck. My hands turned into fists by my side as I kept looking at the neatly made bed and I didn't realize he was standing behind me until he bent to whisper in my ear. "Are you going to keep standing here?" I flinched as his breath touched my ear and moved forward awkwardly, standing in front of the bed before I sat down. Pulling a chair to sit in front of me, I waited in anticipation for him to say something but he only watched me for a while before he stood up and headed into the bathroom. I heard the shower running and fought the urge

    Chapter 25 Amelia's POV As usual, I dragged my feet as I neared the door that led to Cassius' room, feeling queasy as I wondered what was going on. But as I reached the lobby, I realized that I was just coming from Damien's room and that he would probably smell him all over me The last thing I was going to do was give Cassius a reason to actually torture me when I knew that he was always looking for a way to make me squirm. Rushing back to my bedroom, I quickly showered, lathering my body with as much soap as possible and changing my dress very fast before I ran to his room. The first thing I noticed as I walked in was the whip that lay on the bed. I swallowed and turned to him. He didn't bother to raise his head to look at me as he spoke. "You will be joining us for dinner today. There is a dress on the bed over there. Take it with you and meet me in the dining hall in the next fifteen minutes." I looked at him in surprise, becoming really worried when he didn't do anyth

    CHAPTER 26.Amelia's POVThe reason why I would never escape Cassius' clutches was not because I wasn't smart. On the contrary, living with him had made me smarter than most people my age. It was because I always let my guard down at some point especially when I knew over and over again that Cassius was nothing but a monster that preyed on the fear of others. My mistake this time was sleeping with both eyes closed, just because he had ordered me to. Because I didn't realize when he returned to the room or when he tied my hands and legs to the bed, with my chest facing the bed. I didn't realize that Cassius was ready to play games with me until the first lash touched my rear and I screamed, opening my eyes in surprise as water started to trickle down my cheeks. Normally, he would delay before he lashed me again, going on to taunt me about whatever pleased him but this time, he was impatient and I interpreted that to mean that he was very upset. Whether it was because of something

    EPILOGUE*Six years later Amelia's POVDreams did come true, I thought as I walked into the woods and stood far away from where my mate was playing with our daughter, Kiara, watching them with a wide smile. She was the spitting image of her father, took his hair, his eyes, everything, and even his smile. The only thing that she probably got from me was my creamy skin and I had not one complaint at all. In fact, it made me smile every time I watched the two of them bicker about something which was almost every time these days, quickly reminding them that they could settle it since they looked very much alike. She threw a punch in the air at Damien which he evaded with ease, but not too much ease that made me realize that he was actually letting her off easy. She tried again and this time that I saw that she was so close to landing a punch but he caught her hand and shook his head, squatting as he ruffled her hair. "Listen to me, Kiara, we have been over this time and again. You are

    Amelia's POVI did not think that I would be able to pull this off but looking at the table now, I was proud of what I was able to achieve. The dining hall was large enough to take over fifty people and with the chairs that we added, it was large enough to take almost everybody interested in enjoying this banquet.I had learned that Damien's mother as Luna used to organize something like this and I could see how it was going to help to foster togetherness.Damien had been skeptical about allowing me to do it, quickly reminding me that I was pregnant and that I did not need to do any heavy lifting but I had made sure that it didn't matter, not when I knew that it would be something that people would remember me to, with fondness in their hearts.I felt a sense of pride when I saw everyone digging into their breakfast and having looks of approval. I turned to glance at Blair and she was wearing an equally proud smile on her face. We had done this together with the help of some maids of

    Amelia’s POV“How about this one?” Elena asked, her eyes bright as she held up a black sleeveless blouse and a skirt that was probably going to stop mid-thigh, her eyes bright with excitement. “Nope,” I answered, my eyes fixed on the television as I chewed away yet another bag of chips. My appetite had returned with a vengeance after the last couple of weeks that had consisted of vomiting spells and zero appetite. Elizabeth had said that it was because I had passed the first trimester of pregnancy and was now in my second. “Okay, this one is perfect. Why don’t you wear this one?” She came to stand in front of me, holding up a short blue dress that was probably as lovely as the rest but I was not interested, the same with all of the other options that she had chosen for me. I already knew what I was going to wear from the beginning, since the moment she entered the room and told me that I was going out with her and that it was going to be in thirty minutes. “Oh come on, Amelia, so w

    Damien's POVI knew that Amelia would probably roll her eyes if I said this to her but she was hands down the most beautiful woman that I had laid eyes on. Perhaps it was the mating bond speaking but it didn't matter. I was hopelessly irrevocably in love with her. She sat beside me, the first aid box on her lap, and opened her hand for me to give her my bruised knuckles. I fought the urge to tumble her on the bed and kiss her senselessly because she looked less than pleased at my injuries even though they didn't hurt and would heal on their own. "It was nothing serious," I said again. When I had told her the first time, she had raised her eyebrows at me in a scolding fashion. It would have looked really threatening if I was not a big bad werewolf that was probably two times her size and towered over most people in the pack, including her. I stifled my amusement at how adorable she was because I knew that she would not appreciate that sort of thing. "I heard you the first time, Al

    Amelia's POVThe silence in the kitchen was deafening and the entire atmosphere was very tense after my statement. I was well aware that if I did not do so something to diffuse this, things were going to escalate beyond measure but I had had enough of Nikki, from her passive-aggressive behavior to hurting people like they were not human beings and looking at others from beneath her nose like she was higher than every one of them. Her momentary shock at my statement was quick to fade and she pulled her arm away from my grasp and frowned at me. "Oh and what do we have here? So you really think that just because people have accepted you that you can go around calling yourself Luna and expect people to do what you want? I rolled my eyes, almost chuckling to myself.She continued, "It seems that you have forgotten your place, have you not? You are a slave like her, perhaps that is why you feel so strongly that I am teaching her a lesson." "You bitch!" Elena roared and tried to reach he

    Amelia's POVIt had been one month since I moved back to the pack. There was a calendar in the bedroom which I marked every day once I woke up and when I did today, the smile on my face widened as I circled the date. One whole month had passed since I returned with Damien. It had been one month since Cassius was finally defeated.It had been a whole month and even though I had had a couple of nightmares between now and then, whenever I woke up, it was with Damien by my side, holding me tight and reminding me that I was no longer stuck back in that mansion. That I was no longer a slave to a vampire lord that was obsessed with me. That I was no longer living in bondage but free. Being Luna was wonderful here. Everyone had been nothing but so pleasant and supportive, allowing me to ease into the role at my own pace, no matter how slow that was. I was still adjusting to being a very important member of the pack and fortunately, my mate was the most patient and wonderful teacher one coul

The very first time that I had fled from Cassius and the words that she had said to me when everyone else had been nothing but caring."Oh? You don't want to know what I know about you? You don't want to know that I know how you were Cassius' slave for many years before you were brought here? You don't want to know how I know that you were not just a slave, but one used solely for sex?"We both know that you don't deserve him, sweetheart. So why are you still here, ruining my plans and making life difficult for everybody?" "Why? We both know that you are nothing but trash. And have you heard where the trash gets one ounce of happiness?" Her words still hurt every time I remembered them but now that I was mated to Damien and ha

It was nothing but bliss. It made me wonder if I was no longer dreaming and if this was just a really long dream that I was going to wake up from soon. "Am I dreaming?" I asked him as he cut an apple and fed me a piece. We were having a mini picnic in the woods and for the first time since I was forced to move to this new city, I didn't feel wary about being outside. I didn't feel a strange sense of panic thinking that this happiness could be snatched away from me at any time. The bane of my entire existence was dead and every time I remembered that he would no longer be able to trouble us again, I could not contain my joy. Finally, I would have a shot at happiness. Finally, I could begin life anew and start a family just like I had always wanted with the man that I loved wholeheartedly. I
