Chapter Forty One
I forced my eyes opened, but they forced themselves closed again, as they were too heavy to open for even a second. I felt my whole body in pains, bruises everywhere, my once flawless skin, was now filled with nothing, but bruises, and my own blood. Even if the pains were much, I didn't pay attention to it, the pains on my body was nothing, compared to the ones I'm feeling in my heart, for not seeing my parents. I can't help, but worry about them, I don't know if they're fine, I don't if he later killed them.
I tried standing up on my feet, but fell on the ground with a loud thud, as more tears came strolling down my cheeks. I wish I could just die, I wish I'm not a werewolf, maybe I would've died of the torture. It's been almost two weeks that I've been here, and there's no day that passes by, which I don't receive the beatings. Khalid is indeed a heartless monster, I hate him!My stomach grumbled, and as I clutched iChapter Forty TwoMoon POVAmidst the chaos that has been going on in the palace, I still make out time to study, not because I want to, but because I want to impress Liam. I'm really angry that I haven't been able to go to school, but not withstanding, I'll try and go this Monday.Letting out a sigh, I picked my phone, and scrolled through the contacts, till I got to his number, and I couldn't help, but smile, before hitting the dial button. I waited patiently for him to pick up, but got no reply.I sighed frustratingly, as I threw my phone on the bed, and laid down, facing the ceiling, while I hugged my pillow to myself, as some many questions, came conflicting on my mind. Is he okay? Could it be that he's with another woman? Just the thought of that, drives me crazy. I know I'm being dramatic here, I know we don't have a thing, but I can't help the feelings I have for him.My mind darted to the moron, alpha Jack,
Chapter Forty ThreeMoon POVIt's finally Monday today, and I can't just wait to see my prince charming. I've really missed him for these few days, and seeing his handsome face, is the only thing on my mind now.Swinging my legs down the bed, I got on my feet, and hurried to the bathroom to have my bath. Once I got inside the bathroom, I stripped out of my nightie, and wore my shower cap, before getting under the shower, and in a few minutes, I was done bathing.Reaching out to my towel, which was hanging at the corner of the bathroom, I wrapped it around my chest, before storming out, and in the next seconds, I was already sitting on the dresser, applying lotion on my body. Once I was done, I added a light beautiful make-up on my face, and combed my hair, as I let it fall freely on my shoulders, with some strands, laying on the side of my face.I wore my favorite pink crop top, upon my white bum shot, and a pair of

Chapter Forty FourAuthor POVAlpha Khalid kept pacing in the garden, as the image of her, keeps popping up in his head. Her weak and paled face, her weak and angry voice, her tattered clothes, her dirty and bruised body, her rough hair and everything, just the thought of it all, makes him feel so miserable. He knows he had always been a monster, he knows he's heartless, he's not a merciful being, he had never had this feeling all his life, but he couldn't just help it, no matter how he tried to control the feelings and act like it's fine, he found himself, getting consumed by it the more.He sighed frustratingly, as he stared into space, thinking of a possible thing to do about the whole thing.

Chapter Forty FiveAlpha Khalid POV"That girl in the prison..." I stopped to think of the possible phrase to get this all done with, but my head seemed to be blank. I think I'm losing my mind, I don't think, I know I am."What happened to her?" Mother asked, with a hint of worry in her voice.I stared at her suspiciously, as I noticed the worried look on her face. I just couldn't help, but have some thoughts, conflicting on my mind. Could it be that they know each other? It's not possible, right?"Nothing, never mind." I flashed her a smile, and stood up."I need to go. See you later." I said, and without waiting for her response, I headed to the door, and in the next seconds, I left her chambers. As I walked through the veranda, the guards and maids kept greeting me, but I never paid attention to any of them, as my mind was somewhere else.Something crossed my mind, the girl back in the wo

That's how I am, that's who I am, and I can't change it for anyone. I finally got to my room, and stripped out of my clothes, before hitting the shower immediately.Stepping into the jacuzzi, I relaxed underneath, and closed my eyes, as I let the warm water, do some magic on my flawless skin.

Who is he?Gulping down the lump in my throat, I turned slowly to face my own image, which keeps taunting me, as I felt my heart, thumping heavily against my chest, like it was going to pop out anytime soon. Balls of sweats formed on my forehead, the atmosphere was quite ok, but all I feel, was heat upon heat. Staring into his cold eyes, made me almost urinate on my body.

Why does the person have to come around now of all times? Why he or she have to come ruin their beautiful romance in such time?"Cmon don't make that face."
