••ALEXANDRA POV••"Where am I?" My head was spinning when I opened my eyes, and my body felt like it had been dragged through hell and back.I couldn’t shake the heavy ache in my lower half especially that particular part of my body felt like thorn apart. I groaned as I shifted slightly, the soft mattress beneath me the only comfort in an otherwise unbearable pain.Before I could gather my thoughts, Clara rushed to my side. Her worried face came into focus as she sat down beside me, gently placing a hand on my arm."You're awake finally," she said with a relieved voice, "I'm extremely worried about you, seriously you've been unconscious for hours." I tried to sit up, but the sharp, piercing pain made me wince and collapse back onto the bed. "What… what happened?" My voice came out hoarse, barely above a whisper, thanks to those three brothers, I even lost my precious voice after screaming and moaning for so long."You fainted," Clara said, with a trembling voice, "One of those… broth
••NO POV••"Should I go check or not?" Alexandra hesitated for a minute, "what if it's something dangerous?" Just as she is lost in her hesitation and thoughts, the shadow of a person appeared nearby, and a rough voice reached her ears, "don't let anyone find out about this." Out of fear, Alexandra ran back to her room, closed the door, and rushed back to bed, pulling up the blanket from toes to head, she shut her eyes tightly.Though she couldn't sleep after hearing to something like that, still tiredness won over her, and she fell asleep.The scream from the previous night lingered in Alexandra’s mind, a haunting memory that refused to fade even after the sunlight passing through the castle windows. Her exhaustion had made her to be lost in deep sleep, but the unease in her chest remained.In the morning, a knock on the door startled both Alexandra and Clara."Are they going to take my blood again?" Alexandra stirred up in fear, Clara gently caressed Alexandra's back, "Alexa, we
••ALEXANDRA POV••"Who cares about what they hide in that annex?" I tried to brush off my thoughts, "it's not my concern, I'll just concentrate on my work." Their warning about the annex kept replaying in my mind.I tried to shake it off, but the maids’ stares didn’t help. Their whispers followed me like a shadow, their glances sharp and curious, I can hear them talking about me by pointing their looks at me.I knew this feeling all too well, especially those judgemental looks, they are so scary.Back at my old pack, the maids had been ruthless. Every mistake was magnified, every act of defiance punished, I'm almost terrified and I don't want to socialize with any of these people, who knows if they're the same or different from those maids of my previous pack.I lowered my head and smiled awkwardly, hoping to avoid confrontation, then hurried to my room, before someone could approach me.Clara is pacing front and back in the door, I closed the door immediately and glanced at her wit
••ALEXANDRA POV••"No," I stammered, my voice barely above a whisper, as I'm extremely terrified, as if there's no one why did I get caught by this man?Dylan’s sharp glare fixed on me, especially that icy tone of him sends shivers down my spine, "if not eavesdropping, what are you doing here? Spying?" Out of the three brothers, I knew Dylan was the most dangerous and cruel. The one who could crush someone’s spirit with a single glance. Yet, it was him who had caught me, as if I don't have enough troubles.Damien stepped closer, walking straight to me with a frightening aura. "Didn’t I tell you to go back to your room? What exactly are you doing here, even after I told you to leave?" He demanded, with a voice low and frustration filled.I opened my mouth to speak but no words came out, as I'm already too scared enough to utter a word, my body trembling under the weight of his anger.Damien sighed, rubbing his temples. "I hate disobedience, I think I told you already about this," he g
••ALEXANDRA POV••"From tomorrow your mission starts! In the morning you'll come along with us, so don't be late!" These are the words I heard from Damien last night and I couldn't sleep throughout the night thinking about what might be the mission they're going to assign to me.I'm not sure how a week passed already, but in this week of time with all nutritious food and good medicine, all the injuries were healed, I looked healthy and more like a proper person rather than a skeleton and thin layer of skin attached to that skeleton.The morning light passed through the thin curtains, but I'm already sitting on the edge of the bed, trying to calm my racing heart.Before even the sun rose, I woke up to get myself ready, as I'm already prepared, I can't help but to think about the things, the Alpha Kings had informed me last night. They didn’t say where, and the uncertainty filled in me. My stomach twisted with nerves as my mind ran through all kinds of possibilities."Will it be dange
••ALEXANDRA POV••"If they're yours, why don't you just be with them?"That was the sharp reply I wanted to throw at her for her ridiculous behaviour just because of jealousy, somehow I calmed down not wanting to get into a trouble right on my first day.I clenched my fist under the desk as I swallowed the words. I had no idea what consequences I might face if I dared to talk back, so I preferred to be silent rather than ending up in trouble.Before I could decide whether to speak or leave the room, somehow the door was opened, and the professor entered.Instantly, the entire class became silent, all the students got back to their seats, pretending as if nothing had happened.My tormentors smirked at me before returning to their places, I can say by the look on their faces they must be feeling as if they had a victory.I quickly took out my handkerchief, wiping the sticky juice off my face and hair as best as I could. My cheeks burned out of humiliation, but I refused to let tears fal
••ALEXANDRA POV••"Ahhh!"A painful cry escaped my lips as I opened my eyes slightly waking up from an unconscious state, the heavy and spinning feel in my head is vulnerable, especially a slight ache against the side of my skull is unbearable.I blinked hard, trying to adjust my eyes to the dim lighting of the unfamiliar room, everything seems to be blurred, hard to focus."Easy my dear," a calm voice came to comfort my panic, followed by a gentle hand pressing against my shoulder, guiding me back down. "You’re safe and you’re in the school clinic, you don't have to worry about anything, just lie down for a while." The voice belonged to a doctor in a white coat, I can see her being concerned by the way she is looking at me.I took a deep breath, still trying to understand everything by gathering all my thoughts. My fingers reached up instinctively, and I winced when they brushed the plaster on the side of my head."What… what happened?" I asked her with a trembling voice.The doctor
••DOMINIC POV••"When will this ever end?" Pain was my only companion. It passed through every muscle and bone of my body, a restless torment for years that made each breath feel like a razor cutting my lungs. I lay there on the cold stone floor, chains biting into my wrists and ankles, my scattered clothes barely enough to cover my body. Agony had become a permanent cloud over my mind.But then, I felt a shift in the suffocating air, the faint creak of the door that shouldn’t have opened at least not in this time.My muscles are getting tensed as I narrowed my eyes and raised my head slightly. Expecting Damien, Dylan, or David, I braced for their usual silent, painful glances and the food they would bring for me hoping at least it would keep me alive. Yet, this time, it was different.That's when I heard a small gasp, "what on earth is this!" I looked up, and I was surprised because of the person standing in front of me.It wasn't Damien, Dylan, or David, but a girl.She stood the

"It’s all because of you!" Kelvin’s hand harshly touched Britney's cheek with a loud sound, his face evident with full of anger. "That little bitch ran away because of your stupidity!" Brisney clutched her cheek, as her eyes widened with shock.Selene came in the middle holding her mother, "dad, how can you hurt mom?" Kelvin's furious glare startled Selene, almost leaving her out of breath, looking at her daughter's frightened state, Brisney called for a maid, "take princess to her room." "Mom," Selene tried to object, but Brisney gently assured her, "everything will be fine dear, you've a weak body, you need to get some rest, I'll go to your room as soon as I complete talking to your dad." Selene was taken away from the study of Kelvin by the maids.Kelvin’s anger was a storm, and Brisney tried her best to brace the situation, as he paced throughout the room like a caged animal, while clenching his fist."You were supposed to keep things under control as a Luna of this pack," he g
