Dawn's POV After thinking about it for a long time, I finally made a decision. I breathed out and walked towards the door. My body shook a little, as I gripped the door knob, opening the door quickly. Just as I had predicted, the maids were all walking up and down the building, doing one thing or the other. I held my breath, as I walked to the hallway and went out through the back door. The guards that were standing there eyed me suspiciously as I ran towards the servants' quarters. When I got to the door, I finally breathed out, thankful that nobody that I cared about saw me. The building was almost empty as most of the maids already went to the main pack house to carry out their chores. I quickly dashed towards my door to get prepared also, before the head of the maids caught me. I entered my room and locked the door after myself, I turned around and the sight that welcomed me scared the living hell out of me. "What the hell are you doing here?" I asked Cassidy, who sat

Dawn's POV "Cassidy, who were those men that you were talking to a minute ago?" I asked immediately I got close enough to her. She looked a bit shocked, but shrugged it off like the shock was never there. "What do you mean? I thought I told you not to talk to me." Cassidy said, walking away from me, but I ran after her. "Yes, I know. But I have to know. They...looked dangerous, I hope you're not-" she suddenly stopped and turned to face me with a huge frown on her face. She took a step forward and raised her hand. I wasn't sure if she wanted to hit me, but I didn't wait to confirm, as I held her hand in place. "Don't you ever hold my hand again! And whatever I do in this pack house isn't any of your business, so get that straight!" With that, she left, with her hair bouncing against the wind, as she stomped into the servants' quarters. I stood there for a few minutes because I thought over everything she said. The men she was talking to...I didn't know why I just

Dawn's POV “You don't mean that.” Zade finally said after staring at me for a long time. I inched forward a little to speak, but he stopped me with a wave of his hand. "We'll talk about it later, okay?" He held my hand and started walking forward. But I stopped and folded my hands on my chest, with a small pout. "I want to talk about it now," I said, refusing to take any more steps. He stopped walking, and nodded. "We're already out here. So, why don't you just help me to my house or something? I really don't like it over there." I said, hoping he agreed. But the moment he started shaking his head, my heart sank. He moved closer and held my hand. "Dawn, you can't do that. You shouldn't do that. You're Xavier's prisoner and running away would do more harm to you than good." "I might not even be able to save you from him, if he finds out." He said and stepped back. He stretched his hand forward and without saying anything, I took it and we walked in silence. My mind kept

Dawn's POV The next day. I woke up, expecting Zade by my side like he promised, but he left already. I quickly got ready and slipped into my uniform and stepped out. Immediately I walked inside the house, I knew that something was wrong. I was used to most of the maids looking at me scornfully. But today, it was different. I went to the throne hall, and alpha Xavier was on his throne as usual. I was about to greet him, when he suddenly barked at me. "Come here!" Quietly, I obeyed and knelt before him, with my head bowed. My heart hammered against my chest, as I wondered what I had done again. "Dawn, I can see you really want to see my true colors!" He said, and I raised my head, feeling confused as hell. What was he talking about? I made an attempt to speak, but he stopped me again. "I was told that you snuck out of the pack house alone. I thought I warned you against that!" He barked again, standing up. He took steps towards me, and glared at me. I was so confused

Alpha Xavier's POV Immediately I got off the bed, I regretted the fact that I had woken up; my blood boiled with anger. It was probably because I slept angrily the night before. The moment Cassidy came into the main house against my orders to tell me that she saw Dawn running out of the house alone, my heart broke a little then anger overwhelmed me. So much effrontery! I had thought that she wouldn't come back and would probably go hide somewhere far away from the house. But I was a bit surprised when I heard that she came back. If she came back to the house, then why the hell did she leave in the first place? After rotting in the dungeon for a few days, the plan was to auction her off. I'd just get someone else for Zade. Even though she was my mate, I was willing to let her go. She was becoming annoying as each day passed by. My day was going slowly and I hated it already. I got ready and went to the throne hall to attend to any pending tasks. After going through everyth

Alpha Xavier’s POV:There were a few people I hated getting into confrontations with and one of them was Lord Zade. Despite his handsome face and charming personality, he was a brute, an archaic one at that, and there was no saying the things he could do. I also knew that he had a thing or two for Dawn- I hated that everyone did- and that even made his presence here, now that she was missing, more daunting than it already was.As his voice boomed around the room, Ryan raised his head to look up at me, as if expecting that I would become offended by Zade’s interference, I wasn’t. If anything, I just wanted him to be pacified and out of here.“Where’s Dawn?” Zade asked again, looking directly at me this time.“I don’t know,” I finally answered and then came the moment of shame as I ducked my head and continued; “She was taken to the dungeons some time yesterday and this morning, when we awoke, we realized that she had been taken and that the guards stationed to protect her were nowhere

Dawn’s POV:Peeling my eyes open felt like a lot of work. My eyelids were heavy but right now, I couldn’t ascertain if it was due to fatigue or this was my body’s way of reacting to whatever substance I had been fed with before.It took me a moment to regain my blurry sight and when I looked around me, I was surprised to see that I was in a dungeon of some sort, but unlike the one back at Alpha Xavier’s pack, this one was damp, smelly, and was filled with several torture equipments hung at certain areas on the wall, as if to act as some kind of decoration… or in my case, to scare people.My breath hitched in my chest as I took in my environment and to make matters worse, whatever they’d used to make me unconscious still hasn’t fully worn out of my system. I still felt drowsy and my eyes still hurt terribly. My lips were chapped and my throat dry. What scared me the most was how heavy my body was, it was so heavy that it was practically impossible to move any part of it… even my eyelas

Dawn’s POV:I hoped that I was dead, and that this immense peace I felt was from the inside. But it wasn’t, and I wasn’t dead. When I woke up, I realized that it was now late at night and that I was still on the damp floor of the dungeon and in the position I’d been in earlier. I blinked slowly as I tried to focus on what was happening around me but nothing was, and while the three burly men were nowhere to be found, I couldn’t help but be afraid, afraid that they might return.I groaned as pain shot from my back down to my thighs as I tried to sit up but that didn’t make me relent. I continued to force myself up, whilst gnashing my teeth and crying through the pain. I had only managed to sit up before I remembered my nose, my nose which was once bloody before I passed out. Carefully, I ran my fingers over the surface and nearly screamed when I felt it… the crookedness. It was broken, that I was sure of. It was also sore and extremely painful but I couldn’t cry, I couldn’t scream, n

Dawn’s POV:I could hear the hushed mumblings among the crowd as they turned in the direction of the noise- me, but at this point, I didn’t care. I didn’t even care that Ryan was standing beside me, grabbing onto my arm like his life depended on it and muttering something to me, something that I couldn’t quite catch at the moment.All I cared about was the shattered glass on the floor and the fact that I could swear that Cassidy had served me orange juice, but now the liquid painting the beautiful porcelain floor wasn’t orange, it was crimson. I gasped.“Is that… blood?” I asked Ryan who in turn shook his head. “That’s red wine.” He answered softly. He looked almost… stoic and his expression was unreadable. “That’s a wine but you know you can tell me anything right?” He asked and all I could do was give a simple nod of approval.“Why did you let it fall? I know it didn’t slip… you intentionally wanted it to fall.”As I watched him talk, I couldn’t help but think about a thousand thou

Dawn’s POV:I watched Cassidy as she made her way through the crowd of people ever so gracefully, like a queen. It was shocking seeing how she could manage to have her ego untainted even though Ryan had made sure to bruise it.And he did it so badly.Today, we were hosting a party. Scratch that, Alpha Xavier was hosting a party to welcome some ‘Lord’ who wanted to stay a while with us to the pack. And somehow, for some reason best known to Ryan, he had put her in charge of the servants… the waitresses and the ‘meals’ and when I say meals, I mean the humans, the humans who now served as refreshments to the bloodthirsty vampires. Cassidy, clad in nothing but the soft cotton skirt and blouse that was the signature uniform of the ‘slaves’- that was part of the embarrassment that Ryan had put her through- stopped when she saw me. There was a dark look in her eyes, one which managed to send chills down my spine because of how malicious it looked. And then she smiled.“There you are!” She e

Dawn’s POV:As the warm water from the shower faucet cascaded down my body, I stood shakily under it, sighing as most of the pent up anxiety and stress knotted around my shoulders loosened up. I felt relieved, happy even, until I remembered my last conversation with Zade and how Xavier had walked in on us, interrupting us. What was worse was the quiet stare down that had ensued before Xavier politely asked me to excuse them.And now, here I was, bathing away the knots in my hair and the dirt on my skin while I had no freaking idea about what they might be talking about at the moment, and it only made me even more nervous to think that I would be the centre of the conversation. The one whose fate was being decided. I was the topic to be discussed and yet, I wasn’t allowed to witness it.Anger surged through me at the thought, but with it came frustration and confusion. I liked Zade a lot, and presently, I may even like him a lot more than I did Xavier, but that wasn’t enough reason to

Dawn’s POV:“Well, I don’t… I don’t know.” I stuttered as I looked up at Zade’s expectant eyes. “I have never lived with vampires before and I fear that-”“You’ve never lived with werewolves before either but you did and you did just fine.”he added, interrupting me and I gulped.Fine, I knew that he made a lot of sense saying that but there was no way both species could be compared to one another. Werewolves were like humans who had the ability to shift but vampires were different. Those were another species of beings entirely. They were NOT humans in any way and while humans and werewolves could cohabit, vampires and humans could not as humans were practically their food.The fear of living in a place where everyone saw me as potential food filled me with fear and with that fear clawing at my chest, I shook my head. “Personally, I’d love to live with you as you treat me so well, but I fear that I’ll be in danger back at your house. I am human, a human with human blood and it just do

Dawn’s POV:My eyes fluttered open, then went shut. This happened continuously as I tried- no, fought to keep my eyes open, but I couldn’t. In the distance, I could hear the sounds of hushed voices, arguing… and I could smell… that was strange because I could perceive smells so strongly now, and this place smells like shit.Despite the horrid smelling atmosphere, some distinct smells still stood out. It was like the combination of pines, of woods, of the morning dew of fresh leaves, of flowers’ nectar, of champagne and aftershave, and at that, my eyes shot open and I was immediately met with three pairs of breathtakingly beautiful eyes that had my breath hitching in my chest. They belonged to Ryan, Zade… and unfortunately, Xavier.“Dawn?” It was Zade who spoke up first and before I could respond, he sprung forward to pull me into a hug. God, I was happy to see him, ecstatic even but I couldn’t bring myself to hug him back. I felt confused, drained, and most of all, I couldn’t fathom
