(Natasha's POV)I sprinted away as fast as I could, heading for the door. I lifted the pull, praying that as I suspected, the pull was meant to re-open the secret door, and it did. I walked out, and the door shut on its own.I inhaled deeply..My heart pounded. What was Diego doing with those men? And if these meetings were held with good intentions, would he have to sneak out every night to hold them? worse, in such a secret location. I doubted Alpha Damien and his Luna knew about it, and I doubt many people knew about this secret room.I returned back to our room. It seemed like a foolish thing to do. What if Diego was never who I thought he was?But this had nothing to do with me or my mission; I should have never let curiosity get the best of me.I waited thirty more minutes, contemplating, Maybe I should just escape. What would he do to me when he returns? I wouldn't let him hurt me, and if I did reveal myself, then my mission was over. If I leave him behind and escape, then my
(Lena's POV)My screams were muffled by the pillow. I woke up all sweaty, but Damien's hands were around me, holding me closer.It was just a dream, I reminded myself, and then the wave of embarrassment kicked in."I'm sorry." I apologized to Damien for the tenth time. The nightmares had gotten worse; the same black wolves—three of them—and then my ex-father, telling me how worthless and weak I was. It felt more than a dream because I did know Antony wanted me dead; I had seen it in his eyes. Behind the pain from the loss of his mate was a furry like no other, a fire ignited in his eyes, a purpose and a promise. He wanted me dead, and he didn't care what he would have to sacrifice to make that a reality.Still, I felt bad for Damien. Every single night the nightmare came, I screamed myself awake, and he was always there, rocking me, promising me that it had only been a dream and nothing more. I wondered what he thought of me now.."Sometimes, I want to stay up all night; I admit it,
(Lena's POV) I woke up with this strange feeling like something bad was about to happen, I felt nervous. The pack seemed too quiet for a regular Saturday morning. Pushing all those feelings aside, I got ready for the day. There was a knock on the door and for some reasons, my heart pounded. It was the Luna, my mother. She had a smile on her face and that surprised me, I was used to the ugly looks she usually reserved for me, so this was new, still I felt hope building up, it was stupid to think that she smiling at me meant anything, but still I felt hopeful. I found it strange that a mother could hate her own child. Her only child. "Your father wants to have a word with you darling" she said, I didn't miss the pet name, it had been years since she called me any pet names, it felt all wrong, everything about her visit, for one, she was trying to be nice and secondly my father rarely speaks to me, sometimes it was like he wanted to forget he had a child. My parents had wanted a male
(Lena’s POV)It still didn’t register in my mind, what exactly did my father mean?Married?“This is all some kind of lie, isn’t it?” I asked and my mother shook her head.“That’s why you’ve been summoned here”“No, it can’t be true... father!”, I felt the panic rising, I knew my parents didn’t like me, but this was too far, exchanging me for money was cruel, even for them too.“Remember you are doing this for the pack, for all of us, we would be free of the debts we owe the other packs”“You have no right to marry me off to settle your debts, I’ll find my mate....”My father stood to his feet, looking furious. “I am your father and your Alpha, I have every right to do so”“But... but what about my mate?”“Cut the Crap”, my mother said to me, “You didn’t find your mate when you turned eighteen, maybe he is out there with someone better or he is dead, sorry to break it to you, but you might never find him”I didn’t know why it always came as a shock to me when I hear the hate in my par
(Lena’s POV)True Mates didn’t need wedding ceremonies to make things official, but Alpha Damien was not my mate. Our wedding came only three days after my father had shared the news to me, unknowingly to me, my father had gone behind my back and accepted the marriage proposal without even asking me, he knew one way or the other, this would end up going his way as they always did. My mother made sure my face was caked up with layers of makeup, in an attempt to make me look a bit older. Alpha Damien was thirteen years older than me, I was only nineteen.I couldn’t believe my own parents could do this to me, I couldn’t even bring myself to think about our wedding night. I couldn’t. I couldn’t marry Damien.I had a plan, I would not go through with this wedding, I had to escape. I had already gathered up my savings, it was all in my purse, It wasn’t much but enough to start up a new life, of course my father would have my card blocked if he discovers that I took it along. I knew out t
(Lena’s POV)How could a person be so beautiful and yet so scary?Alpha Damien stared at me with furious eyes. He was furious. I understood why everyone feared him, there was something about him, something that screamed danger. His eyes were as dark as his own soul, the darkness loomed over him and I shivered in fear.“Why did you run away?” he asked, his voice filled with authority and I almost bare my neck, it was a struggle to stand there, right before him. He looked quite younger than a werewolf in his early thirties, but every inch of him spoke of the true man he was, he was dress in all black tuxedo lined with gold – the only colour on him.“I am sorry Alpha” I apologised, eyes low, submissive, just as my mother had said but it would be a slap to her face and our pack to discover I attempted to escape my own wedding and I’m sure by now they all knew. He could kill me for this, if he could kill his own mate, what would he do to me. I couldn’t help but wonder if death was better t
(Lena's POV)We arrived at his pack by sun down. The Blood Moon pack.Everything about this pack was better than my pack- my previous pack, but despite the elegant building, three times bigger than ours, it did nothing to calm down my nerves, this was a strange place for me, here I had to start over, I wouldn't be Lena, the daughter of the Alpha, I would be anything he wanted me to be and the thought made me feel helpless.I walked out of the limousine, trailing behind Alpha Damien as he led me into the pack house, they were other pack members there waiting to welcome the Alpha’s mate, there was something different about this pack, each and every of them looked dangerous but not nearly as scary as Damien, my... mate.They bowed their heads in submission as we walked past, of course it was only because Damien was at my side."Alpha" someone called, someone that didn't sound as scared of him as the others and I wondered how that was possible, but when I looked up at the man with light b
I froze when his hands went lower."The tension would make it harder, Lena," he said and I inhaled. Deciding to follow my mother’s advise, I loosened up, his fingers came closer to my wetness, claiming my clit, he robbed slow circles and despite myself, I felt my arousal, my toe curled, the feeling was unlike any other, and then a single finger slipped in and I let out a silent moan, he went in and out of me, steady rhythm and I found myself grinding my hips against his hands, loving the friction, he added in another finger, my walls clasped around his fingers and he went in and out faster, in more jerking motions, I could feel myself building up, I moaned louder, ashamed of how my own body was reacting to his touch, I wasn’t supposed to be enjoying this, but then his two finger were out of me and I felt him, hard and huge, again my entry, I froze."No, don't, it would only make it more painful for you" he said to me, he spread my legs wider for more leverage and then he pushed into
