Chapter 41 : Dance of Shadows

"Let's start sneaking around behind his back if he shows up," Kingston said with a tone of ambiguity. I forced myself not to reveal how shocked I was. As Kingston's suggestive proposal hung in the air, I couldn't stop shaking which was accompanied by the sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach."Sneaking around behind his back? Please be careful about what you're saying," I retorted. "Whatever feud you have with Alpha Arthur is none of my concern. I'm merely an outsider who has never provoked anyone. Please don't make things difficult for me."Though I feigned indignation, my mind raced with apprehension, hoping Kingston would dismiss such a dreadful idea and above all... hoping Arthur wouldn't come. If he didn't then that would mean Kingston had to leave me alone from here on out. Not only that, but I didn't want to see his face when he saw me in the company of his evil stepbrother.My stomach rolled over and I was reminded of the feeling I experienced when Catherine had made me s

Chapter 42 : Only a Game, Arthur

I turned around, caught off guard, and saw Arthur standing behind me. Widening my eyes in shock, I cowered under his towering form. Without a word, he snatched the glass from my hand and hurled it at Kingston across the table.Kingston, who was already sitting, seemed to have anticipated this move and swiftly lifted the tablecloth to shield himself from the splashing liquid. Each of Kingston's mates around the table jumped in surprise.Using the gingham tablecloth as his slingshot, Kingston's lightning-fast reflexes caused the tumbler to fly in the opposite direction. Unfortunately, that direction was mine. The glass sailed through the air, appearing in slow motion to me. I wasn't sure how, but I slid out of the way just in the nick of time. Ricky, who was at my left instinctively stood up, but before he could get out of the way, it smashed against his head, sending glass shards in all directions.Without thinking, I flung my arms up to protect my face. I felt a few slivers embed

Chapter 43 : Ophelia's Fate

Arthur touched my cheek gently, pulling strands of hair away from my face. He was close to my face, our bodies resting against each other. "I want you, Ophelia," he said. I gazed into his piercing eyes and could see love in them. "Don't leave me," I begged. His hands brushed over my bare skin and sent shivers through my body. "You are mine forever and I am forever yours," Arthur said. My heart was racing. I had been yearning to hear him say these words. Did he mean them? Before I could ask him, he slid closer, kissing me tenderly. I kissed him back, welcoming his mouth to me. Moving away from me, he caressed his fingertips on my full breasts. Delicately, he teased my nipples until they were erect. He fluttered his hands over my ribs, down the middle of my stomach, and then between my legs.I could feel his breath on me, just like the last time we were together. I'd never had this done to me, but I knew I didn't want him to stop. Holding his head, I twisted his hair in m

Chapter 44 : Was it a Misunderstanding?

As soon as I woke, shock and disbelief flooded me. My chest tightened with panic. The night before I had cried myself to sleep. That was evident by how much my eyes stung. They were swollen and rubbed raw from me wiping them so much.Arthur's words played over and over in my mind. How could that be what he said? No! There must be some kind of misunderstanding.There was no way he was going to kill me, right?Reluctantly, I slid out of bed. Was there a point to get up? I wasn't sure anymore. One thing was certain though, there was no way I was taking a chance on running into Arthur today.In fact, it was probably best if I found my way to the cottage, far away from this group. Then I’d figure out what to do next. Just as I was packing a bag, I heard a knock at my door."Who is it?" I asked hesitantly. "It's Arthur. Do you want to join us for breakfast?"My stomach dropped to my feet and instantly my heart rate quickened. I froze for a second. Was I going to be able to talk with

Chapter 45 : Anthony's Dilemma

Beta Anthony’s POVThe other night when I spoke with Arthur, it hadn't proceeded as smoothly as I'd expected. Even through my best efforts to urge him to reconsider, it only made him more convinced to go through with the plan.That plan was to marry Catherine and get rid of Ophelia afterward. What fate did that leave for his heir? Who was going to take care of the pup after the birth? I didn't think Catherine should be an influence on a young, innocent, developing mind. What poisonous ideas she would plant! But did any of that matter to him? Had he thought that far ahead? Just imagining that woman being in my life was pissing me off. I felt like it was my duty to protect Arthur and Ophelia from her greedy claws. I'd been as honest with him about my feelings regarding Catherine without inflaming him. My goal had been to be logical and diplomatic so I chose my words carefully but now that I was alone, I could admit my real feelings. Catherine was not only going to be a pain in th

Chapter 46 : Death Agreement?

Ophelia’s POVLying in my bed, I began to think about my circumstances. If there had been any change in the situation they'd have come to tell me. Of course, they hadn't, and I still knew nothing. It was safe to assume they were going according to the plan.This was ridiculous for me to await my fate without speaking up. I'd made a vow not to stay silent. Remaining hidden in this room and crying wasn't going to get me the answers I needed. It was critical that I talk with Arthur. I slid out of bed determined to find him. As I left my room, I ran into Catherine. So, she was just able to hang around wherever she wanted because she was engaged to our Alpha? I swallowed down my pride and told myself that I had to accept it. She'd probably be living her full time soon. "Ophelia, just the person I'm looking for. I have to talk with you. It's about the heir you're carrying." "What do you mean?" I asked, tilting my head feeling suspicious. "It's a matter of dotting I's and cro

Chapter 47:Kidnapping

When I awoke it was to someone slapping me on the face. I bolted upright, forcefully pushing them off me. I shook my head and blinked, trying to see if this was a nightmare. I wasn’t waking up. Glancing down, I noticed my hands were tied. How did I get into this mess? The last thing I remembered was leaving ShadowClaw. Now I was seeing stars from someone hitting me and I had no idea what happened. My heart began to race as I stared at him. His chest was heaving as he crawled across the floor, climbing on top of me again. I frantically turned my head away, trying to avoid his dirty mouth as he attempted to kiss me."No!" I shouted, trying to shove him off again. "Stop fighting, little wolf. It will be over soon enough."He wound his fingers in my hair, yanking my head back, forcing me to look at him. I was panting as I stared directly into his wild irises. "I'm sick and pregnant. You don't want to do this." I remained staring directly into his eyes, waiting for

Chapter 48: You Are Not My Alpha

As we drove back, Arthur was kind enough to remove the ropes from my wrists. As he did, I wondered, was Arthur good for me or did he hurt me too much? Were his erratic spurts of interest worth the stinging agony when he turned his back on me over and over? Never had anyone forced me to contend with so many competing emotions at once. Fear and pleasure, pain and...love. But would I have been better off if I'd never known it? If I had never met him, I’d be free from repeated hot and cold treatment. Then again, I'd never know what it was like to creep out of the cold recesses of my existence and be thawed by the burning, brilliant sun. But were those warm times enough to push me through the pain of having to freeze again?The thing is, each time he was kind, it made me closer to him and each time he let me down, it hurt more. But I was expecting both now. Did that put me in a better position? I had to admit to myself that there were times I was dying for those moments

Chapter 49: Please Don't Give Up on Him

Ophelia’s POVEven after Arthur saved me from the kidnapper followed by his unexpected forceful affection, I still couldn't shake off the fact that he wanted to kill me. I had to talk to someone about it. Anthony and I struck up a conversation and I finally dared to bring the subject up."Anthony, I have to confess something to you," I said. “I’ve been thinking about this for a while.” He pointed to a nearby couch, and we sat together. "I heard you and Arthur talking about sacrificing me. As in killing me.""You must have misheard.""No offense but why should I believe you about any of this?" I asked, tossing my hands out. "Arthur wouldn't hurt you.""I'm not so sure." Anthony sighed in resignation. "I know how private Arthur is but let me tell you a little bit about him," he said.I slid closer to him on the couch so he could speak more quietly. "Please, go on. I'm all ears," I answered. "When Arthur was a pup, he witnessed his father being killed

Chapter 50:Why Are You So Kind to Me?

After Arthur left, I let out a long exhale. I knew I had been quite dismissive toward him but that was my goal. Hopefully, he didn’t catch on that I was feeling suspicious of him. Ultimately, I couldn't waste my energy worrying about what he wanted. All that I knew was I'd never been sad to leave a room. As I walked past the front door, I noticed something out of place. Catherine's tan coat was hanging up on a hook, nestled between a few others. Carefully, I snuck a check and noticed it was an envelope I recognized. It couldn't be. Was she really that tactless? The answer to my question was yes. She had brought the euthanasia agreement with her. How despicable! Was she planning on twisting my arm to sign it tonight? It wasn't enough for her to have an engagement party for her and Arthur. She needed to know I was going to die too. Her spite never ceased to amaze me. Snatching it out of her coat, I stuffed it inside my shirt. I tried to stifle my shaking as I
