All Chapters of The Fourfold Desires: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Fiona’s POV.“Did you hear Fiona’s latest tryst?”“I heard she was having an affair with the professor who was going through a nasty divorce.” Another whispered.“She’s the lowest of the low. It’s no wonder she’s not liked.”I could feel the venomous hatred and deceitful whispers floating around as I passed the hallway and swallowed painfully at the lump lodged in my throat. The beginnings of a panic attack and anxiety threatening to crush me was overwhelming as I fought to keep my expression blank and aloof to the vile rumors been spoken. They were all lies, naturally, yet I couldn’t do anything about it no matter how hard I tried to clear them. They just stuck like stubborn stains on a pristine white cloth.Something hit the back of my head and exploded. It’s runny content slid with a disgustingly cold, wet sensation down my back to, landing splat on the floor. Mechanically, my fingers reached for the wetness behind my head, rubbing the wet sticky hair there before bringing it back

Fiona’s POV.Fear.That was the only thing rooting me to the floor like heavy thorns wrapped around my ankles.Fear lacerated my heart and left my body trembling at the weight of their collective gazes. The nightmare memories I’ve tried hard to suppress all my life struggled to surface. My lungs worked for air and found nothing. The air suddenly seemed thin and the heavy pounding of my heart reached my eyes, threatening to explode. The urge to vomit so potent, it took iron clad will to maintain my composure.The terrors of my childhood once again occupied my mind; my brain picked one out of the thousands plaguing me and latched on it. Where the four of them had locked me in a dark room in the servants quarters — a broom closet — for the whole night, leaving me with snakes and hungry fat mice. I nearly died that night. My screams had awoke the servants and they rescued me and treated my wounds. I still had the physical and mental scars to prove that that night wasn’t a dream. Wasn’t a

Fiona’s POV.Stunned.I was stunned and shocked at the same time. Of all the ways I could imagine this night going south, this wasn’t one of them. I just stayed rooted on the spot, staring at the four alphas in dumbfounded amazement.“Are they speaking up for me?” I thought mentally.The party fell into hushed silence as the drama unfolded. I saw Helena and her group pale at the unexpected sight of the four alphas. Helena looked pale, gulping instinctively as Jin and the remaining three drew closer but her main focus was on Jon watching her with cool, blank eyes.“I asked you a question, Fiona.” He said again with a deceptively soft voice, his face was anything but. His dark eyes had a hard glint in them. He turned those dark eyes to me in question and I resisted the urge to flinch under his intense stare. That and the anxiety crippling me at the nearness of the four alphas surrounding.I said the only thing that came to mind at best, “I’m sorry.”A slight frown appeared between his b

Fiona’s POV“Oh, shut up! I thought I told you to leave already.” Jin reprimanded idly, wrapping the ends of the gauze in a bow before wrapping his hand around mine, holding me captive.Lyn looked positively red with rage, his body tensed for a fight. He was about leaping for Jin’s throat when Soren and Kai held him back roughly by the shoulders, forcing him in place. “Don’t do anything you’ll regret later.” Soren whispered fiercely into Lyn’s ear as they struggled. “Come on, let get some air.” He said, successfully dragging Lyn out of the room while Kai closed the door quietly behind him. I heard Lyn’s disgruntled argument as they walked away and Soren and Kai’s muted voices, catching the words, “mate” and “Fiona”My name… I raked my brain for memories of the four of them fighting and was shocked to find there was none. They rarely fought and seemed to agree with each other on everything. So why now?“Thanks.” I whispered, rubbing idly at my sore wrist, lost in thought. Anything

Fiona’s POV“Will, do as I have ordered.” Luna commanded coolly.I felt large reluctant hands close over my shoulders and began pulling me up to my feet. My body felt lifeless like it wasn’t my own. I could slowly feel life draining out of me. I had the mind of asking Will for a knife to end my suffering should he leave me there. I know he’d do it. He cared enough for me too….he had too. There was no telling how I’d be if I ever came out from the Black Room so I might as well kill myself to end my suffering as Jin said. Is this really my end? After all these years of physical and emotional torture. Is this really it? Honestly, I was relieved. My earlier hysterics was gone, replaced with this soothing calmness that was a bit terrifying at first. Finally… “Wait a minute!” Jin called out, rising to his feet; Soren, Lyn and Kai stood up behind him as well. “"Luna, I don't think she should be punished so severely."Will stiffened behind me and I looked up to him in confusion. Why did he
