••ALEXANDRA POV••"Clara!" I mumbled glancing at the emptiness in my room.The days without Clara dragged on and on. She was locked in a cell somewhere in this hellish place.I could feel it in my bones, and even having that knowledge I was helpless as there's nothing I can do despite knowing everything.Thinking about Clara, I couldn’t eat or sleep. Every time I asked one of the brothers about Clara they ignored me and told me she was getting what she deserved.But how can I give up? I don't even know how Clara is doing or what they're doing to her!So, finally bringing up my courage, I once again went to meet them, I know they'll not try to listen to me but I've to speak to them."Alexa, I think we told you multiple times not to speak about that matter again," David said as soon as he looked at me, "if you're here to speak to us about that, I advice you to leave." "Why? Why are you being like this? Why can't you give her a chance?" I asked them with hopeful eyes.“She betrayed our
••DOMINIC POV••"Where are you Alexa?" I stared out while thinking about Alexandra.The annex was full of silence, before I used to think silence is the best, now I'm annoyed by this silence as I want to hear her soft words and sweet laughter.I pushed my wheel chair around in the room.I had waited for Alexandra for almost three days but hadn’t seen her even for once, normally she would try her best to sneak around just to see me, but till now she didn't come to meet me, that's annoying me the most.What was going on? Where was she? Did she also got tired of me like everyone? Is that why she stopped coming to me?I had so many questions and I don't even have a single answer, but I know Alexandra, she isn't someone who can abandon me easily, I'm sure she'll come back for me, all I wanted was to tear through this annex and go to her.There was an emptiness I was feeling now she wasn’t here.The pain I had lived with for so long calmed at that moment because of her only to be a bother a
••NO POV••One side, Alexandra was locked up in the dungeon by the Alpha Kings, on the other side, Dominic stubbornness to meet Alexandra, in between the Alpha kings, who neither can make Alexandra give in, nor can calm Dominic, they're suffering in the middle.While all these are like this, out of the frame, there's another side which has a more heated up situation than Alexandra and Alpha Kings.The atmosphere in Alexandra’s old pack was almost too much to handle.Selene sat on an elegant couch in her father's huge study, her hands shaking as tears stained her perfect face.She looked so calm on the outside, but inside she was a wreck, Rosaline with silver hair coming through in her black hair, sat next to her, softly patting her hand and whispering reassurances to no avail, "everything will be fine sweetie, don't cry." "How can it'll be fine Mom? The situation is going out of our hands," Selene cried holding her mother.Neil stood by the grand fireplace, his face filled with worry
••ALEXANDRA POV••"So, everything Florentia said was true?" Suddenly this thought came up in my mind, "they're ruthless and cruel, no less than people from my previous pack." The cell door finally opened and the guards came in but this time they were female guards their faces emotionless but their hands hard as they pulled me up. My body hurt from the nights on a floor that was wet and freezing, but I barely felt it. All I could think about was Clara, locked up, beaten and injured because of what I had no idea about.“Move,” one of the guards ordered, using her rod to push me forward.I tripped over my own feet but managed to stay upright. The guard’s grip on my arm was tight as she led the way down the hall, away from the grim dungeon cell and into a blindingly white corridor. It took a moment for my eyes to adjust to the light, but when they did, I stumbled again. A dozen more guards stood in formation there, all dressed in black armor and each armed with large weapons in their
••ALEXANDRA POV••The morning light streamed in through the window, gentle and inviting.My muscles groaned from the other day, I had spent locked in a cell and just after coming out, I ended up having sex with the three Alpha Kings, my mind still heavy with all that had happened. I rolled over onto my side, the mattress felt heavenly beneath me as the silky sheets caressed my skin.The door creaked open and I turned my head to see David walking in half naked, carrying a tray in his hand.I couldn’t focus as I had my eyes on his hot body and how he had handled me the other day. He placed the food on the small table next to the bed and then glanced over at me, his usual unreadable face now gentler.“Eat,” he spoke softly, pointing towards the tray.I sat up slowly, everything part of my body aching in huge pain, but as I stared at the table, the tray contained a bowl of soup, some bread, fresh meat and water. I could feel my stomach growl at the sight; it had been too long since I’d
••ALEXANDRA POV••"Yes, I understand master!" I nodded my head, he kissed on my forehead, "good girl, be like this only, we will treat you well." Moonlight poured in from the massive windows of the room, casting a silvery shine to fill all over the room.The day had already turned into night, many hours straight with the Alpha Kings, their hot gazes glancing at my every step. With nightfall, it was too much, I wanted to run away, this is too much already, I don’t want to be with them anymore.All we had been doing was a sex marathon and I needed some time on my own.“I want to go back to my room,” I said, keeping my voice firm but not demanding.Damien narrowed his eyes at me from where he lounged in a chair near the fireplace. “No, you’re staying here only tonight.”"Why? I'm fine now, my Lord," I argued, getting tired of their stubbornness. "You kept me here all day already, I need to get out of here, I'm so tired already.""You'll stay where we can see you." Dylan's voice was low
••ALEXANDRA POV••"Alexa, my love, you're so good," that's what I heard before falling asleep in the arms of Dominic, the way he called me my love made my stomach to fill with butterflies, I can't help but to say I loved it.In the morning, I woke up to the gentle sunlight passing into the room.For a moment, I couldn't remember where I was but the comforting smell in the air put me at ease really quick. I turned my head slightly and saw Dominic laying next to me, his face peaceful for once and most importantly, pain free, more importantly his face buried into my naked chest sucking those nipples even in his sleep as if it is his favourite snack.My heart pained a little, watching him, because he seemed so peaceful like this, I wish he could be like this all the time without any pain. However, I decided to leave as I knew the alphas would soon start waking up, if they had not already. I couldn't stay here any longer, I needed to get out of this place and make sure I was on the safe
••NO POV••The smell of a never ending antiseptic white corridor, filled with the pulsating light of the heart monitor that beeped slowly, each beat coinciding with a sickening ache in Alexandra’s limbs. The faint chatter of half heard voices could be heard just outside Alexandra’s room while she slept.The Alpha Kings were talking to the doctor who was bringing up her charts and talking to them about why she was bleeding over a small injury.“She is pregnant,” the doctor said, which shocked the three brothers.“What do you mean?” David asked in a surprised tone, to which the doctor replied calmly."The tests didn’t lie my Lord, she is pregnant and she is supposed to be on bed rest as her body is too weak, and this is a high risk pregnancy which needs a lot of care, so whatever she needs to be doing can be pushed aside to later for the time period." The brothers nodded, the doctor left from there and the brothers got into the room to talk over what had been said.Alexandra was sti
••NO POV••"My father planned that entire thing. He wanted to make you look bad in front of the Alpha King, so that they would lose trust in you, and, so that I could take your place in their life," Florentia ended her words making Alexandra to be more surprised.Alexandra took a step back in shock, as she still couldn't understand anything, "Take my place?" Florentia nodded, guilt evident in her eyes, "He wants me to become the wife of the Alpha Kings." Alexandra stared at her in disbelief, not because of what she heard but because of why Florentia chose to say all these, from the beginning it's an easy guess for Alexandra that Florentia is trying to seduce Alpha kings, but never expected the one behind everything is her father."Why are you telling me all these?" Alexandra crossed her arms, "You and I are not close enough for you to disclose something important like this, then why? Why are you saying this to me?" Florentia got closer to Alexandra, with an unreadable expression,
••ALEXANDRA POV••"I'm running late for school," I sighed bringing up about the school, slightly pushing Dylan aside, I ran away from there holding back my breath, while running away, all I could hear was their laughter and David's words, "Alexa, don't run sweetheart, you'll fall down." I ignored him, and made my way straight to my room.The moment I stepped into my room, I closed the door in a hurry and leaned against it, exhaling my breath heavily, "Oh God! These four brothers will never let me live peacefully." My heart was still racing from earlier, Dylan’s words, his touch, his kisses, those piercing eyes of the rest of the brothers glancing at me, all these are seriously annoying.I shook my head and groaned, walking straight to the mirror.The reflection staring back at me had bright red cheeks, come on I'm looking almost like a cherry tomato, is this how I stood in front of them till now? "Ugh, crazy... I'm so stupid," I mumbled touching my face as if that would cool down t
••NO POV••"No, it's not like that," Alexandra groaned, hiding her blushing face immediately in her hands. "You guys are seriously bullies!" Dylan gently caressed her hair, "I told you, these people are bullies, but you believed in them, look at them bullying us like this just because we went out for once." "Come on, you don't have to act innocent in front of her," David smacked on Dylan's head, "We are not bullying you but questioning you about taking her out, since we all know how crazy you are! And we are afraid that you might end up hurting that little girl!" Dylan smirked, tightening his hold on Alexandra's waist, "Come on, I'll not hurt her, and I don't find anything wrong with me taking my mate out for a night, how does it even bother you people?" David rolled his eyes. "She is not just yours, Dylan, she belongs to all of us, she is our mate too." Dylan narrowed his eyes, placing a kiss on Alexandra's cheek. "Just as you said, she is our mate, so, she belongs to me too, if
••NO POV••"Chirp... Chirp...." The birds chirping sounded like an alarm, the sun had barely coming out of the clouds, however Alexandra's beautiful sleep was disturbed by birds, she slightly woke up feeling a warm, and tight arms wrapping around her.It took her a moment to realise where she was, curled up in Dylan’s lap, his arms wrapped protectively around her. The fire from last night had turned into ashes, the sunrise was both beautiful and warm, his embrace felt more warmer.Dylan’s chest rose and fell in a slow rhythm, his steady heartbeat against her chest, she stared at his calm face, this is the first she ever got a chance to see him like this, and this is the first time he has been this close and gentle with her.But the moment she moved to touch his face, he stirred in his sleep as if it was a wake up call for him, but his grip around her tightened for a second before his sleepy eyes finally opened.As soon as his eyes glanced at her beautiful and refreshed face, a warm
••NO POV••"Five golden keys," Dylan said with a gentle smile kissing on her forehead, making Alexandra to repeat, "Five?" Dylan nodded, the soft fire casting warm shadows in the woods, the scent of burning wood, fresh soil, made it exciting for both of them, especially the smell from Dylan wanting her to just bite him."These pheromones smell so good," Alexandra whispered, he kissed on her jawline, "Only you can feel them, because you are our little mate." Alexandra blushed biting her lower lip, Dylan placed his hand on her hand tracing lazy circles on her wrist, "Golden keys were a part of werewolf foundation history, and their existence was known by everyone yet it's a secret forbidden to speak out." She mumbled in a calm voice, "Known by everyone, yet forbidden to speak out, why like that?" Dylan let out a soft chuckle looking at her cute face while questioning him, "You ask too many questions, little spy." She frowned turning her face away, "I'm not a spy, you people made
••NO POV••"He won’t let anything happen to her," Damien said with a calm tone, David slammed the armrest of the couch with a scowl, "How come you're so confident? What makes you think he will be tamed with her?" Dominic smiled at David's worries, "Relax David, we know you are worried about her, but see, he loves her a lot, he is serious about Alexa, this is the opportunity for him to cool her hatred towards him." Looking at David being calm, Dominic continued, "Infact, I'm also angry that he took her out without any of our permission but I didn't say a word because this is the only thing we can do now, since, the more she hates him, the more she thinks of leaving this place, if he can manage winning her heart, then her thoughts about leaving this place also decreases, right now, I don't want anything more than this." Damien exhaled, rubbing his temple. "I just hope she doesn’t push him away, but after what he did for her last night, maybe we should try to trust him at least for on
••NO POV••"You don't want me to leave?" Alexandra looks slightly confused, Dylan nodded, making her to smile faintly, "Where can I even go? I've no where to go either!" Dylan gently pulled her into his embrace, "You're mistaken Alexa, our home is your home!" The words which he couldn't say out aloud were felt inwardly, "I'm sorry Alexa, like my brothers said, I can't openly tell you the truth, our lives are hanging on a thin line of hope, that's why we made you our spy instead of happily accepting you as our mate," There is unexplainable pain behind every single word repeating in his heart, "In case, if incase something were to happen to us, we don't want you to suffer, but never expected our fear of losing you will make you think of as cold and unloving beasts, we want to give you a happy home, but instead our cold attitude made you think of escaping from us, I wish we could solve all these misunderstandings one day." The silence between them continued, but it wasn’t uncomfortabl
••NO POV••"Ahhh!" Alexandra screamed in fear, as her heart almost jumped out of her chest when something tiny and warm hopped onto her face.Dylan woke up from sleep being alarmed after hearing Alexandra's scream from now here, "What happened Alexa?" He looked frightened thinking someone intruded into the room.To shake off the sleepiness, he rubbed his eyes, while Alexandra's breathing became heavy when she slowly looked down to check what hopped on her.To her surprise, it's nothing but a small and soft kitten.Dylan let out a deep sigh, falling back on the bed once again. "Seriously? You screamed over a little kitten? What's this Alexa? You woke me up from my deep sleep due to a tiny kitten, how can you do it?" Alexandra is already embarrassed while Dylan is making fun of her, so she sighed. "Why is it even here? I have never seen a kitten in our house before, who brought it, now?""Dominic," Dylan lazily kissed on her hand, "He got it for you only, don't you know that?"Alexandr
••NO POV••"Wrong?" Mr. Helen let out a reassuring smile at Alexandra, "Nothing is wrong, sweetie, it's just, very rare to have such a mark, you've one of the unique birthmarks." Alexandra returned the smile, though a flicker of curiosity was evident on her face while checking the birthmark she has.Meanwhile, Mrs. Helen's thoughts getting scrambled within herself, "It can't be, I must be mistaken, though she has little resemblance, though she reminds me too much of her, still how could this child be the one I'm thinking of? How is that even possible? Maybe it's just a coincidence." Before Alexandra could ask anything, the butler entered and bowed respectfully, "My Lord, just as you instructed, I’ve prepared a room for Mrs. Helen."Mrs. Helen nodded with a smile, "Thank you." With one last glance at Alexandra, she followed the butler out.Alexandra was staring at Mrs. Helen's retreating figure, just then, Dominic's gaze shifted to Alexandra. "Do you like her?""Yeah," Alexandra said
