Graciela’s POVI lay on my side, facing the wall, trying to avoid his eyes. I deserve it, I know I do but it hurts, it hurts so bad. I don’t even know if I’m hurting from the pains of his spanking or the fact that the spanking had come from a guy I love. He had treated me so nicely afterward, he ran a hot bath for me, bathing me so tenderly, then he took me back to the room and made me lie on my stomach while he applied a soothing cream to my ass, massaging the cream into my ass, forcing out an involuntary moan out of me. “I’ll order everything you need tomorrow,” he told me softly as he pulled his shirt over my head. The shirt was too big for me and it covered my sore ass and I loved it so much. I love the scent coming from the shirt, it smelled like him and it made me so comfortable and so warm. Although he had taken care of me after the spanking, but I know that he would never love me again, he would never want to be with me again. “I’m going down for a bit, I’ll be back soon.” He
Bethany’s POVHave you ever had that feeling where you feel like everyone has gone completely insane, I mean, have you ever thought that everything in the world is going wrong like every damn thing is not the way it is supposed to be?Well, that’s me right now, laying on Dominic’s arms, thinking of a better way to convince him not to use me as bait. Everything was going flawlessly cool, at first, he was so furious with me for playing such a prank on him, but when he took me upstairs, he made passionate love to me, touching me in all the right places, making me scream out his name in ecstasy, bringing me multiple orgasms. Damn, I love this guy, I can never get enough of him, he is so damn perfect, so flawless. We stayed locked up in our room for hours, screwing our brains out, satisfying all our sexual desires. I was just about to fall asleep in his arms when he told me that he has decided to give king Ashford exactly what he wants. He wants to play the same trick twice, he wants to us
Graciela’s POVWhat if I don’t want to love you, what if I don’t want to be with you anymore?” I let out in a whisper when he told me to get addicted to him. I know what he means, I know exactly what he wants from me, but I’m not sure in ready for that, I’m not sure that I m ready to let him back into my heart, not after he abandoned me the last time. He said this would be a good way for me to over my addiction, but all I can see is a guy trying to find his way into my heart again. I will be a big foul to let him into my life again. “Come on my love, I know you want me. I can see it in your eyes. And even if you don’t want to be with me, I’m still not letting you go. I will make you desire me, Gracie, trust me, I have my ways. I’ll make you fall in love with me, you’ll never be able to resist my charms.” He told me in a hoarse tone that does nothing to hide his emotions. We are facing each other on the bed and I can feel something hard poking against my stomach and it kept pulsing wi
Dominic’s POVI know she is right, this may turn out to be a huge mistake but on the other hand, it could be the breakthrough that I have been praying for, I mean, it could be everything. All I have to do is to get her to make that delivery, I need her to lure those bastards out of their hiding place. They know I’m on their case, they know I am not going to stop until I get them out of here, that is why they have all gone dark and they canceled all their ongoing operations. I want to evacuate the Alphas from that building and move them all down here, I’ll feel better if I can have my eyes on everyone, especially that sneaky bastard, Robert. It’s obvious that King Ashford now has control of that building, it’s either I act fast, or I stand a chance of losing everything I’ve worked so hard to accomplish. Very soon, King Ashford will start to eliminate all the other Alphas that have refused to fall in line and that includes Harriet's father and that would be so disastrous to me because e
Bethany’s POVI can’t believe that Graciela’s mom is dead, I just can't believe it. She was such a good woman, she doesn’t deserve this, she doesn’t deserve it at all. She had welcomed me into her home with love and tenderness, she never made me feel I was welcomed in her home because she always treated me like one of her daughters. I can’t believe that she had paid for Graciela’s mistakes, she is innocent in all of this, she never even knew about Graciela’s addiction, she was always trying to get us to save up enough money so we can quit stripping in the club, she always did her best to take care of us, looking out for us all the time. Now she is dead, just like that, and it's all Graciela's fault. Yeah, I know that is an awful thing to say, but it’s the truth okay. It is her fault, hers alone. If only she had stopped using when I told her to, if only she had agreed to let me commit her to a rehabilitation center. She had brought this trouble on herself and her family. It’s not my de
Still Bethany’s POV“I know how hard this must be for all of you, but believe me, it’s not so easy for me as well. Believe me, I know exactly how you feel, I once believed that I’ve lost my family in one night and I was so devastated and miserable. I even blame their death on someone that I thought was a monster and I hated him with all my heart, I even wished to kill him myself. But now I know better and I wished I didn’t spend all those years hating him. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying that you shouldn’t moan your mom in your own way, I’m not saying that you shouldn’t hate your mom’s murderer either, that Lucas guy is a bastard and I’m so glad that he is now dead, he got exactly what he deserved. But now we have to put it all behind us, we need to move on with our lives, Cici. Don’t hate your sister for this, it’s not her fault, she never wished for any of these to happen. She is a total mess as we speak, we need to be there for her before she slips into depression.” I told C
Still Bethany’s POVDominic is a stubborn man…How on earth did I even get mated to this douchbag, why me, why me? I love the guy, trust me, I adore him, but sometimes he can be so mean and stubborn, I mean, he is a very, very stubborn man. I still can’t believe that he wants to put my life e in danger, he wouldn’t even hear what I have to say, he is hell-bent on this mission and he isn’t taking no for an answer. If I don’t follow along with his plans, then he would relocate my family to the castle so they can face the consequences of my mistakes. Sometimes I feel like punching this guy, he knows how much I care about my family, and that is why he keeps using them against me. How can I let him bring my mom and sister into this crazy Castle when we still have those stupid moles among us. At least in the Alphas lodge, my father has a bit of control there so I’m pretty sure that he can take care of their safety, but out here, I won’t be able to protect them and when king Ashford finds o
Unknown POVThat stupid bitch, I’m going to get her for this. She nearly gave me away in front of King Dominic's woman. I warned her to be careful around that nosy Bethany, but she let her emotions get the best of her and she nearly gave me away. I tried giving her some fair warnings, but she wasn’t even looking at me, she just kept rambling about her feelings and all that, telling Bethany that it is all her fault, getting Bethany to get curious about her feelings. Although I have to admit that it wasn’t her fault, it was all Bethany’s fault. It is very rare to see a wolf that can detect the pains with just a touch, I never knew that she had such abilities, I would have warned Ciara to keep away from her, but even at that, she could have been smarter than that, she could have just blamed it all on her crazy sister and get it over with, but she didn’t do that, she keeps blaming herself and making her attitude look suspicious. I’m definitely going to teach her a lesson when I get back i
Still Bethany’s POV“Come on, Beth. Get your pretty ass out of that bathtub. Lorenzo has been gone for almost two weeks and he is becoming more grumpy by the minute. Trust me, you don’t want to keep him away from his women much longer, I would hate to see him turn into a grumpy old man.” Dominic let out jokingly, causing me to chuckle softly. He took a few steps forward and grabbed a towel, holding it out for me. I gladly went into his arms, letting him wrap the towels around my dripping wet body. He moved the towel on my body in a sensuous manner, giving me goosebumps all over my body. It’s been more than one week since we had a heart-to-heart discussion. It was right here in this very room, right before we went to celebrate our victory with the new Lycan king. Although I didn’t mean to question his motives and ask him if we are back together again, but I’m glad that I did because the outcome of that little talk we had was so heartwarming and beautiful. If I had not voiced out my fea
Bethany’s POVI killed my father…Everyone keeps trying to convince me that I had no choice. They believe that I did it out of self-defense. Let’s face the facts, if I had not done it, he would have probably killed me. He would have stabbed me with that blade and he would never have flinched when he did it. But that wasn’t why I killed him, I mean, I could have knocked him out and let the warriors deal with him the same way they dealt with all the other traitors that refused to fall in line. I could see the warriors around, Carl was there, as well as Harriet and Dwayne, I could have elbowed him hard and slipped out of his hold so they can deal with him and have him locked up, I could have let him live if I wanted to,But I didn’t… Nah, I used all the skills I learned from the big city while I was still planning to kill king Dominic. I never had a chance to kill Dom, I wouldn’t have done it even if I had the chance, I love him too much for that. I did attack him severally, but I didn’
Dominic’s POVI passed out a few seconds after Declan’s announcement, I was just too weak to join in the celebration. I was occupied with everything happening around me that I forgot about the wolfsbane that is circulating through my body. I was trying to stand up to my feet and address my people, but I slumped to the floor, and I felt myself drifting into nothingness as I passed out. “Wake up, Dom. We are not going to let you sleep through our victory celebration.”“Wake up, my king, we won. You hear me, we fucking won.”“That’s right my king. The tyrant is down, we killed the bastard.” “We are waiting for your instructions my king, you need to wake up and lead us to greatness. We need you, my king. We need you now more than ever.” I was hearing the cheers and encouragement from my generals, they sound gleeful, too excited if you ask me. I can hear their voices, I really want to be a part of this celebration, it’s all I’ve ever wanted, it’s all I’ve ever dreamed of. I’ve been figh
Dominic’s POV“I asked for a fair fight, Ash. Is this your definition of a fair fight?” I asked sarcastically when king Ashfords generals dragged me out of the dungeon and threw me into the ring that was at the center of the crowd. I don’t know how they managed to do all this in just a short while, but they did it and it looks quite good. There was a large space in the middle for king Ashford and I to fight freely. His warriors stood around the ring, ready to strike me down if the combat is in my favor. But that is not the only reason why I’m being sarcastic with him. I’m being this way because I can see that king Ashford is still scared of me, he is trying so hard to make it difficult for me to defeat him. His body armor is more sophisticated than the ones his warriors are wearing and he is packing a lot of sharp blades on his sides, he isn’t even trying to hide the fact that this combat is rigged in his favor. He smirks at me as I approach his location with my hands handcuffed in fr
Dominic’s POV“Are you fucking insane?How can you challenge him to a duel when you know you cannot kill him no matter what you do. I knew you had a death wish, but you didn’t have to drag us down with you did you?” Lorenzo yelled at me in anger when I got thrown into my cell. “You should be thankful to me for offering myself to be beaten by that bastard. If I didn’t do that, he would have tortured you until you give him exactly what he wants. I know king Ashford, he would have kept to his promise and he would keep cutting out different parts from your body until you finally break and give him the codes, and after he gets what he wants from you, he will kill you, he will fucking kill you.” I responded in the same angry tone that he had used on me. Don’t blame me for being mad at him, I mean, I just did him a huge favor, the least he can do is to appreciate my effort. I just saw my mate kissing my sworn enemy as if her life depended on it. She told me I don’t stand a chance against hi
Bethany’s POVHe is torturing me by withholding my pleasure. I think he likes toying with me and making me beg him for his attention. I’ve begged for it, I practically grovel at his feet and beg like a fucking whore that can’t keep her legs shut. If I didn’t know better, I’ll say that I’m high on some kind of drug, I just couldn’t keep it together, and I can't think straight. All I want is to have his dick buried within my pussy. When he walked in through that door, I thought he had finally come to put me out of my misery by screwing me senseless. But that’s not why he came, Nah, he had his own agenda, he always does.“I missed you, my king. I’ve been waiting patiently for you, just as you instructed,” I let out seductively, walking up to him, putting my arms around his shoulder, and leaning up for a kiss. But he turned away from me, dodging my kiss.“I think you are lying to me, Bethany. You claim you love me, but that is only a lie. I can see it in your eyes, I can tell that you mis
Still Dominic’s POV“Ashf… Ash… Please man, I’m begging you right now, please end this madness. I’ll take my own life, just give me a sword or a knife and I’ll fucking end my life, but pleas to this. You can’t do this I beg you.” I pleaded with him pathetically. This time, I wasn’t kidding around, I really meant it. I would rather die than to sit here like a fucking weakling and watch what is about to happen, or what I think is about to happen at least. I can never let this happen, it would ruin me and Bethany would never forgive me for this.“No, my friend. I won’t kill you yet, and I certainly won’t let you take your own life. It would only make you a martyr and that would give more people the motivation to go against me. On the other hand, it would give me great joy to break you and show everyone that you are a pansy and a coward. You are wimp Dom, and soon enough, everyone is going to see you for who you really are. A fraud.” He responded smugly, fixing his eyes on Bethany, ogli
Still Dominic’s POV“You are scared, aren’t you?You don’t want your warriors to see how weak you are. Let’s settle this on the battlefield as the ancient kings did. I’m fucking sick and tired of watching you hide behind your potions and black magic. You can never defeat me in combat, you are so fucking weak and pathetic. I’ve called you out to war, I’ve tried to get you to face me like a man, but you send your warriors to die in your stead, and you hide like a bitch, playing stupid mind games with me. This ends today, Ash. This fucking ends now. It started with you and me, and it’s going to end with you and me as well. Fight me, Ash, I dare you. I fucking dare you! I yelled at him, earning a scoff. I know I am straying from our plans, but it’s either this or he kills Lorenzo right here in my presence.I have put a lot of people at risk by bringing Lorenzo here. Lorenzo is the Mafia Lord and he controls this city. He is feared and respected in the underground, he controls many legal a
Still Dominic’s POVAt the order of the king, we were roughly thrown into the dungeon by his lycan warriors and the gates were shut firmly. The dungeon is just as I remembered, we were thrown into different cells on the same block. The guards searched us for hidden weapons or anything that we could use and try to escape, but they couldn’t find anything with us because we weren’t packing any. I let them him and my generals as they please, I felt the urge to punch their faces so hard that they lose a few teeth. But I curbed my anger and let them get away with it, I need them to believe that I have given up on this war. Their ego will be fed and they will celebrate their victory, they will think that they have finally won this war. They will be too busy celebrating their victory, they won’t see what is coming for them.Declan had told us to lay low for a while because it would take a couple of hours for his trusted warriors to get to us. His father is a paranoid bastard, he may look as i
