After dropping the bombshell about ending the engagement Alpha Kane walked out of the chamber without waiting for any responses or arguments from the shocked advisors. He moved quickly through the corridors with his mind focused entirely on getting back to check on Maya’s condition.He reached Maya’s new chamber and pushed open the door to find Jenna assisting the head healer alongside several other palace maids who were helping to care for the injured woman. The room smelled of healing herbs and antiseptic ointments that the healer was applying to Maya’s torn back.Kane stepped inside and his eyes immediately went to the bed where Maya lay face down with her back exposed showing the extent of the damage that had been done to her. Fresh bandages covered most of the wounds but he could still see patches of raw flesh where the whip had cut deepest.“How is she?” Kane asked as he approached the bed.The healer looked up from her work and gave him a reassuring smile. “She will be alright

After Kane left the dungeon carrying Maya in his arms Prisca sprang up to her feet with her hand immediately going to her neck where dark bruises were already forming from Kane’s grip. She touched the tender skin gingerly and winced at the pain that shot through her throat.“Get out all of you,” Prisca yelled at the pack members who were still standing around staring at her. “What are you looking at?”The pack members scrambled away quickly not wanting to be anywhere near Prisca after what they had just witnessed. They rushed toward the dungeon exit pushing and shoving each other in their haste to escape while casting nervous glances back at the furious woman.Prisca stood there helplessly for some minutes after everyone had left and the dungeon fell silent around her. She looked at the post where Maya had been tied and saw the blood pooled on the floor beneath it and felt a sick feeling growing in her stomach.“What have I done?” she whispered to herself as she touched her bruised ne

Gavin moved with lightning speed across the dungeon floor and grabbed the other guard who had been holding the whip by his neck. The guard’s eyes bulged and he dropped the weapon as Gavin lifted him off the ground with one hand showing strength that made several onlookers gasp.Kane stepped out from the shadows and took slow deadly steps toward the center of the dungeon where Maya hung limply from the post. Each footfall echoed through the space and the sound seemed to grow louder with every step he took closer to the scene.The air shifted again and everyone in the dungeon felt the temperature drop as Kane’s fury radiated outward in waves. The pack members who had been watching the punishment were all shivering in fear and several of them backed toward the walls trying to make themselves as small and unnoticeable as possible.“Sir my lady ordered us,” the guard in Gavin’s grip struggled to say as he clawed at the hand around his throat. “We were just following her commands.”Alpha Ka

Maya was dragged roughly by the guards through the corridors with her feet barely touching the ground as they pulled her along. She tried to resist but their grip was too strong and her struggles only made them tighten their hold on her arms until she felt bruises forming under their fingers.Prisca trailed after them with her hands folded calmly in front of her as if she was simply taking an evening stroll through the palace instead of following a prisoner to the dungeon. Her face showed no emotion but there was a glint of satisfaction in her eyes that Maya caught when she looked back.“Please my lady this is a mistake,” Maya begged as they descended the stone steps that led down to the dungeon area. “If you would just listen to my side of the story you’d see that I’m telling the truth.”“I’ve heard enough from you,” Prisca replied coldly. “Your lies won’t save you from the consequences of your actions.”They reached the dungeon and the guards threw Maya into the center of the large

Maya’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets as Timothy’s accusation rang through the small chamber and echoed into the hallway beyond. She stood frozen in place trying to process what had just happened and why this guard was suddenly screaming lies about her.“What the hell is going on?” Maya stuttered as she looked between Timothy and the door where pack members were already starting to gather after hearing his shouts. “I just brought you your dinner and I didn’t do anything else.”But Timothy continued pointing at her with a wild expression on his face. “She came into my room and started making advances toward me,” he said loudly enough for everyone in the corridor to hear. “She touched my arm and said inappropriate things while she was supposed to be delivering my food.”“That’s not true,” Maya protested as more faces appeared in the doorway. “I walked in and put your plate on the table and asked if you needed anything else and that’s all that happened.”Other pack members had a

Kane arrived at the gold mine with Gavin and a group of their strongest pack warriors following close behind him. The journey had taken less than an hour but it felt longer because of the urgency of the situation and the anger that was building inside Kane with each passing moment.When they reached the site Kane stopped abruptly and stared at the scene before him. The mine entrance had been torn apart and the guards’ station was nothing but rubble and scattered debris. Bodies of his fallen warriors lay where they had been struck down while trying to defend the pack’s property.The ruins there made Kane’s blood boil as he took in the full extent of the damage and loss. He walked slowly through the wreckage counting the empty spaces where bags of gold should have been stored and his fury grew with each missing container.“How many bags were taken?” Kane asked one of the surviving guards who had arrived after the attack was over.“Over one hundred bags Alpha,” the guard replied with his

Proffesor Larry’s POVHe took my whole length in his mouth and my eyes roll into my skull.“Ohh boy” I moaned fuck this guy is good he locked gaze with me while bobbing his head on my cock I gripped his hair as pleasure rippled through me I bucked my hips fast as I fucked his throat mercilessly, while his soft moan filled the room his saliva drooling all over my cock dropping to my balls.He kept bobbing his head on my cock and I kept grunting and hissing I felt my cum building up. Not so fast I promised to ride him to ecstasy and that’s why we’re here.I pulled my cock away from his mouth, lifted him gently to his feet and crashed my lips against his wet pink lips. I grabbed his cock 6 inches not so bad for a guy his age, I squeezed it lightly.“Ohh” he moaned in between the kiss our tongue rolled against each other in a fierce pleasurable battle.His hand found it way to my chest rubbing me everywhere, he touched my nipple and I stiffened.I couldn’t ignore this heat no more. I bre

Jade’s POVMy grip on the phone tightened, my body trembling as I read the message again. My eyes darted around the classroom, half-expecting someone to be watching me, but everyone else was lost in their own world. Still, a cold sweat broke across my skin, and I shifted restlessly in my seat.When the bell rang, I didn’t wait a second. I rushed straight to the professor’s office.There he was, gathering his things, ready to leave.His gaze found me instantly, and that smile of his—God, that smile—nearly knocked the breath out of me.“Missing me already?” he teased.I swallowed hard, fighting the insane urge to kiss him right there in the open.“Yes,” I whispered.He pulled me closer, his lips brushing mine in a light, teasing kiss that only made me ache more. My cock twitched painfully in my pants, begging for more, but he drew back too soon.“I need to talk to you,” I blurted, my voice shaky.His brows lifted with curiosity, eyes sharpening. “Go on.”“I… I got this text. From an unk

Jade’s POV His pink lips were all I could see. The way they moved as he spoke caught all of my attention. I did not hear a single word he was saying. How can a professor be this young and cute? All my life I have only seen older men and women in that position, never someone like him. I kept staring at him. I think he felt it because he looked straight at me. The moment our eyes met I felt my cock twitch under the desk. He turned away and continued his lecture as if nothing had happened, but I did not stop looking. My eyes stayed on him the entire time, following the way his shirt fit against his body and how his voice carried through the room. When the lecture ended, he picked up his books and walked toward the door. Just before leaving, he paused and looked back at me. “Jade Hawkings, see me in my office during break,” he said before walking out without waiting for my answer. My chest tightened. What does he want to say to me, I wondered. The hours passed slowly until br

Thompson’s POVAriana ran upstairs, her clothes clutched in her hands, her bare ass bouncing with every step. I couldn’t stop staring, my eyes glued to her curves until she vanished around the corner. My cock was still half-hard, twitching in my pants, and I groaned, pissed off at whoever was knocking. That idiot ruined the best moment of my life. I’d been dreaming about fucking Ariana since the day I met her, those full lips, her round breasts, the way her hips swayed. She’s my wife’s daughter, so I tried to act right, ignoring her flirty looks and tight outfits. But today, watching that porn with her on the couch, her thighs pressed together and her nipples poking through her top, I lost it. Her vagina was so tight, squeezing my cock like a glove, and the way she moaned “Zaddy” while I fucked her deep made me never want to stop. Even her mouth, sucking me off, gagging on my cock while I came down her throat it was better than I’d ever imagined.Another loud knock snapped me out of

Ariana’s POVMy stepdad’s been driving me crazy since he married Mom. I pushed her to find someone after Dad died, knowing she’d be lonely, but I didn’t expect her to pick a guy this hot six feet tall, biceps that bulge under his shirt, broad shoulders, and emerald green eyes that stare right into me. He acts like I’m just his daughter, but I want more. Today, Mom’s gone for a five-day conference, and I saw my chance. I put on my tightest bum shorts, the kind that hug my ass cheeks, and a crop top that pushes my breasts up, nipples poking through the thin fabric. I went downstairs where he was watching TV, his eyes flicking to my butt as I walked in. I knew he couldn’t resist staring at my curves.I sat on the couch, crossing my legs, scrolling on my phone but watching him from the corner of my eye. His gaze kept drifting to me, and I felt my pussy get wet just thinking about it. I couldn’t wait anymore. I stood up and walked over to him.“Hey, Pops,” I said, keeping my voice ligh

Justin’s POV I froze as Mum stormed in, the look on her face was priceless. “Stella, you’ve been sleeping with my son? Since when?” she demanded, her voice sharp enough to cut glass. Aunt Stella stood there, speechless, her eyes wide with panic. Before she could answer, Mum charged forward, grabbed her by the arm, and delivered a stinging slap that snapped Stella’s head to the side. “Here and now, we’re done,” Mum spat, her words final. She seized my wrist and pulled me toward the door. “Ralia, it’s not what you think—” Stella’s voice faltered, fading into the chaos as Mum dragged me to her car. She didn’t say a word as she sped off, the silence between us heavier than a thousand screams. I could feel her heartbreak radiating in the quiet, and it tore at me. I’d never seen her like this. We pulled into the driveway, and Mum got out without sparing me a glance. Not a word. Not even the flicker of an eye in my direction. She headed straight inside, her silence pressing down on me

The person behind all this is really smart. Impressive… but not enough.“Clean up this mess,” I ordered, my voice flat.The boys stepped forward immediately, lifting the body and dragging it out of my sight.“You’re not the only smart one after all,” Lorenzo muttered.I turned sharply, glaring at him. My eyes burned with fury. I walked toward him slowly, deliberately. He kept shifting back until his back hit the wall—cornered and trembling.I grabbed his neck and squeezed.Hard.His eyes bulged, tears spilling down his face before I finally released him. He collapsed forward, gasping desperately for air.“Just kill me already, Justin!” he cried.I ignored him.My hand slipped into my pocket, finding the dagger. Without hesitation, I plunged it into his lap.His scream echoed through the basement—loud, broken, almost musical. It pulled a dark smile from my lips.My gaze shifted to Matthew. Pathetic Matthew. He shivered violently under my stare.I don’t even know what to do with him any

Justin’s POVThe nurse dropped to her knees immediately.“Please, sir… don’t do this to me. This job is my only source of livelihood,” she begged, trembling.“You should’ve thought about that before running your mouth,” I said coldly, my glare sweeping over the rest of the nurses. They shrank back, fear etched on their faces.“How dare you insult my wife?” I snapped, my jaw tightening.But even as the words left my lips, something twisted in my chest. Why am I standing up for her?Well… because I’m the only one who has that right.The right to insult her.The right to look down on her.The right to hurt her.No one else dares.“Please, ma… help me plead with him,” the nurse whimpered, turning to Amelia.But Amelia’s face was unreadable—cold, distant.“Let go of me,” she said flatly, shaking her legs free from the woman’s grip.“Next time, learn to mind your business.”Without another glance in my direction, she turned and walked away.I stared after her, stunned.Wait… isn’t she suppo

Amelia’s POVThe doctor’s words hit me like a punch to the gut.I staggered, but a strong hand steadied me before I could fall. I clung to him like my life depended on it.I saw a flicker of jealousy cross Maxwell’s face, but that was the least of my problems now.“Doctor — can anything be done?” I choked, tears thick in my throat. “Mum can’t be in a wheelchair. She doesn’t deserve that.”Dad swayed beside me, pale and stunned. My heart lurched — he’d been warned about his blood pressure; the doctor had said he must avoid shocks. I could practically feel the strain tugging at him.Images of our childhood crashed through me: the cinema trips, the way we used to roam the market and laugh over nothing, Mum always rushing from one place to another because her business needed her on the move. Could it end like this? Mum trapped in a wheelchair? The thought made bile rise in my throat. They should take my legs before they take hers.Tears rolled down my cheeks and I pressed my palm to my mo

Amelia’s POVI didn’t even wait for Jackson to park the car properly before jumping out.I rushed into the hospital reception and approached the first nurse I saw.“Please, where is Mrs. Hart’s ward?” I asked, struggling to steady my voice.“Come with me,” she replied, and the look of pity that flashed across her face made my heart sink deeper.It was already bad enough that Mom was in a coma… I only prayed it wasn’t worse than that.I trailed behind her, each step heavier than the last. My heart pounded so loudly I feared my chest might explode.We stopped in front of the ICU. I paused, inhaled deeply, and exhaled shakily before stepping in, bracing myself for anything.But nothing could have prepared me for what I saw.As soon as my eyes landed on Mom, the strong girl in me shattered. Tears streamed freely down my face.There she was—lying motionless on the bed, wrapped in bandages, pale and unrecognizable, with an oxygen tube fixed to her nose.Dad sprang up the moment he saw me. H

Amelia’s POVThe men moved closer, their grins wide and deliberate.“Stay back,” I warned, my voice firm.“We were paid to have fun with you. Be a good girl,” the chubby one with the bald head said.“I don’t do fun. Go get a prostitute,” I shouted, but they kept advancing.The lanky one reached for my arm. I swatted his hand away. Another man grabbed my waist, and I drove my knee into his groin. He let go with a groan.“How dare you,” he yelled. Two men seized my arms, pinning me in place. The bald one, who seemed to be their leader, undid his belt. I twisted and fought, but their grip only tightened.Was this how I was going to lose my virginity — to strangers? Who would pay them to do this? Faces flickered through my mind, but none stayed long enough for me to name.I squeezed my eyes shut, bracing for the worst.The door burst open.Justin strode in, his face cold and hard. He crossed the room in two quick steps, slammed his fist into the face of the man holding my legs, and blood

Amelia’s POVI stepped into the mansion and was welcomed by the maids.I made my way upstairs. Immediately I stepped into the room my breath hitched.Lying majestic on the bed was a golden dinner gown embedded with diamonds, beside it was a black heels embedded with gold stones and a black handbag to match.My heart swelled with excitement and the anger I felt since evaporated into thin air.I picked the gown and ran my hand through the smooth fabric. Justin sure knows how to flutter someone and he also knows how to hurt someone. He does the right thing at the wrong time.Well with this beautiful dress laying in front of me begging to be worn. Who I’m I to say no? I would be going for the banquet.I peeled my work clothes off my body and slide into the bathroom humming softly.I let the shower run through me washing away all the sweat tiredness.I stepped out of the bathroom feeling refreshed. I combed my hair thoroughly before wiping my body dry.I applied body lotion, then I pack
