"Wha-!! How-.....you! I-I-....where-?"
His chuckles reverberated throughout the room. I gritted my teeth and tried to stand up but abruptly stopped as I felt something searing through my skin.
I yelped, biting my lip as I clenched my eyes shut.
"Now, now. Don't stand up. You'll hurt yourself even more."
I sent a venomous glare only for him to smile amused before I eyed the shackles and turned my leg around. I blinked, frowning upon seeing a tiny white stone welded into the metal.
"Ahh. I see you're curious about why there's a tiny white stone in the shackles?"
I flicked my eyes to him.
"Well, its to hold you dow
My Darlings, I apologize for this chapter was too long and if you had to spend more coins than necessary, I'm still a bit woozy from all the medicines I had to intake. Just a little bit more and we're done. Thank you! I'm sorry again.
*BEFORE THE BATTLE* "I'll return with your food." I stared at the shackles before I raised my gaze and looked around the room. My gaze landed on a window and I could see an orange color with hues of pink and purple painted the sky. The sun was slowly setting andI would admire the beautiful view yet I can't. I scooted back until I was against the wall and my eyes trained at the window. I rested my arms on top of my knees and heaved a sigh. The sudden growl of my stomach made me jump and I cradled my stomach. "Oh my pup. Are you hungry?? Just wait a moment and I promise food will come." I whispered, smiling down as I rubbed my stomach in slow, small circles before a sudden thought made me frown. 'Does Dylan know I'm pregnant? If he does, what does he plan to do? Is he gonna kill my pup before he/she's born? Or what if he'll use my pup?' The last two put a bad taste in my mouth and I found myself releasing a lo
'Gentle giant?'He unfolded the blanket and draped it around me. He looked at me and I gave a tiny smile in gratitude and he lightly squeezed my hand before leaving the room. I gripped the blanket and pulled it closer and soon, I drifted off.I was woken up by loud obnoxious laughter. I blinked blearily and was tempted to yell but the sound of a door opening had me looking. I frowned as two men came in with grins on their faces and I sat up, now fully awake."So, this is him."The tall one spoke."Man, they were right. He's f*cking hot.""And sadly off-limits."I scowled at them."You know, if you were someone else, I would've smacked that scowl off your face."The small said with clenched fists."Why don't you come in and do exactly just that?"I growled out while clenching my fists. The man who spoke clenched his jaw and was about to when the taller one held him back."Are you stu
'Oh what the hay is wrong with me?Hormones. Hormones.'A loud pained groan brought me out of my thoughts and I found the guy on the floor. Unconscious. My eyebrows shot up as the man bent down and patted his pants, pulling out a set of keys.He stood up and turned and our eyes met. His widened while I stared with a blank face. He gulped before quietly walked in. He stopped at the door of my cell and slowly opened it. He hesitated for a bit before stepping in and stopped right infront of me.He bit his lip before kneeling down and reached out to the shackles.I stayed still and he took that as the cue to continue and while he busied himself getting them off, I spoke which made him jump."What are you doing?""Repenting for my sins. Consider this as my way of saying sorry for not telling where our hideout is."He said quietly and I observed his body language. He was shaking- no, trembling rather. One fell off and he went to
I thought I was trembling, but when I opened my eyes, the one trembling was the ground itself. The rouges came to an abrupt stop as they looked around confused. They dug their claws into the ground as they held on, but it was useless. Aghast, I watched as the earth literally opened, the rogues plunging deep into the darkness leaving me alone but safe.I felt like something was clenching inside of me and soon, the ground closed, returning back to its normal state as if it hadn't opened a while ago. I blinked dumbfounded before flicking my gaze up to find all were frozen on their spot.My gaze found Marcus who was actually looking quite hilarious at this moment - for even in wolf form -as his mouth was wide open. Then he gave a wolfish grin before he threw his head back, howling happily before clamping his teeth down on the rogue's neck in front of him.The fight resumed and more came charging towards me. I wanted it to happen again but something else
ZANNICUS' POV: I groaned, waking up to the shrill sound of my alarm. 'Sweet fiddlesticks, I hate mornings.' I flapped my arm around looking for the dang thing and shut it up by throwing it into the drawer of my bedside table but not before catching a glimpse of the time. Groggily, I sat up, my hair no doubt be looking like a bird's nest. "5:40? Again?" I set my alarm for five twenty but why is it that I always wake up twenty minutes after? 'Ugh, whatever.' Stretching one last time, I drag myself out of bed and trudged to my cramped bathroom, pausing to glance at my cracked mirror and assess my current state: a black and a busted lip that has yet to heal from last night's events. They still hurt. Slowly taking my shirt off, the bruises on my back, stomach and sides no longer hurt and were just beginning to fade into purple-ish blobs. "All this because I was late in serving the pack's dinner last night." I rolled my eyes and divested myself the rest of my clothes and did my morni
RONAN'S POV:I opened my eyes only to close them against the assault of the lights that peered through my window.'Stupid sun.'I'm not a morning person and maybe like half of the Earth's population probably aren't either. Why would you ever want to wake up so early and leave the comfort of your bed? But I do have a healthy respect for those people who have the strength and manage to wake up before their alarms blare their eras off.I was about to return to my slumber when I smelled bacon.'Hm~' Zannicus must be done cooking. I gotta say, his food are the best, second to my mom of course.Of course, I'd never tell him that or anyone. I hate the guy and I don't even know why. I bullied him since we were children because of what my dad said to me; "He's filthy, an omega and gay! So don't you dare try and befriend him or associate with him in anyway as he is beneath you! Put him in his place whenever he speaks or do things out of turn."And that's what I did. My friends and I would tormen
After everything that happened this morning, I was glad the room was empty when I came back downstairs. Usually there would be a few stragglers or some skipping their morning runs for an extra hour of rest.'Huh. They must've gone training then.'I was on my way to the living room to start cleaning after finishing in the kitchen only to find Alpha Ryder standing in the middle.Gritting my teeth, I bowed slightly while clenching my fists to stop myself from hurling a fire spear at him. He was strangely quiet so I chanced a glance but jerked back in surprise upon seeing him standing right in front of me.But in one swift movement, too fast even for me, he grabbed me by the neck and hoisted me up. I gasped, scratching at his hand as I couldn't breathe in hopes to release me or even loosen his grip but to no avail. I was on the verge of passing out when he finally decided to let go.I landed with a harsh thud while I coughed and greedily sucked in the air, 'I'm sure a bruise will form in a
The sound of ringing filled my ears as I slowly rouse awake. I blink, a bit disoriented just as different sounds popped back into my ears. I moved to stand but the searing pain that shot through my body caused me to yelp. Memories of what happened filtered quickly into my head.'Dylan and his band of pachyderms.'I groaned and made another attempt to stand by holding on to the armrest of the couch and succeeded after my third try. I sighed, blinking away the dark spots scattered in my vision and upon glancing down, I saw something, dark red on the carpet. It was blood. My blood.Grunting, I limped all the way to my room, taking a bit longer as I gently trudge down the stairs, taking extra care on my right angle, 'I think one of them deliberately stepped on it.'I pushed the door open and close it behind me, silent Lee grateful that Theo and the others were sent to a nearby town to purchase something alpha ordered him to. I limped towards my bathroom, using the sink as my leverage to

RONAN'S POV: The huge iron doors to the dungeons opened with a deafening cream.We were met with a dark hallway that soon lit up as three guards appeared with torches in their hands. With a bow from them, they turned and lead the way. One of them opened another door that seperated the cells from the hallway and as soon as we stepped in, low whimpers and growls sounded from the cells where each rogue are placed into. From here, I could sense Seth and Isaac releasing their auras as we walked past the wolves. Some growled louder while others snarled wildly but the sounds abruptly stopped, a deafening silence engulfed the air. With a confused frown, I flicked my eyes to the others to find all were glancing at each other in confusion but soon, our question were answered by a strong, almost suffocating aura. My mate was leading the way, mask of cold indifference adorning his face as he strod

RONAN'S POV:I was frozen in my spot gaping witnessing what my mate did and felt the others were as well.The voice didn't belong to my mate and I glanced at Marcus who'd already shifted back and was clutching his bleeding arm. As if he felt my stare, he looked back and I sent a silent question, asking if the one who spoke was Anak-har and he nodded.Dylan turned to us, face red eyes glowing in rage."This. Isn't. Over."Seth, Nica and Gabe growled at him before he took off, leaving our territory.W Weturned to my mate and I saw him shaking his head and he glanced around.His body was lolling side to side then he locked eyes with us. He had a faint smile on his lips. My eyes widened as blood trickled down his nose before he started to stumble and fall.I quickly shifted, not caring if I was naked and ran towards my mate."ZANNICUS!!"
