His eyes switched immediately and he looked scary. The green eyes that I found beautiful some moments ago turned even scarier.
"You will submit to me, Kahlan!" He repeated in a deep accentuated voice. He looked very angry. It actually looked like he was going to kill me.
"Never!" I responded quickly.
He groaned and pulled aside a little, giving me space.
I proceeded to hit him in the manhood but he pulled back, then twirled me around quickly. When I looked up again, I'm suddenly confined to the bed. His hands were holding mine against the bed like a chain as he hovered above me. He was so fast that I could barely see him move.
I've heard a lot about the Lycans. They were very fast and strong. They were like the doubled qualities of usual wolves. I guess that was why some group of Werewolves came together and made them the Alpha.
The bed, the stairs, the vibration. I had another fight within me. My body wanted this man so much, like the air I breathe but my head won't stop reminding me of my family's death.
But, was I supposed to mate with the man that killed my family? I have no pack again because of him. Was I supposed to ignore that?
"Do you hear me?" He yelled in my face. He seemed to have been talking but I missed the words he had said and I was not ready to ask him to repeat them. "You will be my Luna and bear my heir."
"Maybe in my dream," I spat out, with hatred. Though, my heart was saying a different language. How can I hate and want someone at the same time? I'm sure it's the mate bond and I have to get rid of it immediately. " I will reject you, Eric," I said with vigor.
If I can reject him, I can be free of the shackles of the mate bond. That aside, I could safely think of a way to get my revenge.
"You wouldn't dare, Kahlan," he suddenly let go of my hands. "Because you will die the moment you reject me. I will kill you with my bare hand." He barked with a serious tone.
I'm his mate. I'm the one that can bear him an heir. He can't kill me.
" You are bluffing! You wouldn't kill me! I'm the only one that can give you an heir. You wouldn't want to jeopardize that."
A sly smile curled on his lips. He looked strikingly handsome like that. His green eyes were sparkling.
" Who told you that? I will find a she-wolf and get mated to her. She will bear me an heir. Besides, I have nothing to lose," he stated.
I felt a stab of annoyance and I clenched my teeth against him. He would probably kill me the moment I reject him and I wouldn't be able to avenge my parents' death.
"You seem so sure of yourself. I will advise you to get yourself a she-wolf then because I don't care!" I hinted.
He regarded me for a moment and I found myself growing small under his scrutiny.
Then, he came too close again, only stopping inches away. "You will come back to me. You will beg me, Kahlan. You will beg for a taste of my cock. You will want me and you will give me an heir," he muttered thickly.
A blush appeared on my face. I hit myself mentally.
"That will never happen, Eric. You can keep deceiving yourself."
"Time will tell," he indicated and stepped aside from me.
The door opened and some men rushed inside.
"Place her in an empty dungeon," Eric ordered. "Less food but enough water," he looked back at me. "Until she asks of me."
"In your dream!" I snarled.
The men pulled me down from the bed. I didn't resist, but my gaze was on Eric. He was also staring at me and giving me such a cold look. Maybe he thought he could have whatever he wanted at any time. Well, that won't include me.
We walked out of the big bedroom. I was pulled violently towards the slave building.
My gaze searched around me as we walked. Just before I could look away from my left, I saw some guards leading my stepsister towards me.
Wait a moment! Sonia was alive? Could Sam be alive as well?
"This was your fault!" Sonia accused the moment she was close enough.
I smirked. "Are you kidding me? My fault? Whose fault was it that I left home? If you hadn't poisoned my mother, would I have left home?" I declared.
" Very funny!" She shrieked. " As if you would have been able to defeat Eric. You killed my brother! It was because of you that my father did not prepare for the attack," she explained.
I lurched forward quickly but the guards pulled me back. "You must be insane! This is all because of you! You killed my mother! You killed my father."
We both lurched forward to attack each other but the men pulled us back.
I was eventually forced forward but it crossed my mind suddenly where Sonia was being led to.
It looked as though she was going to where I was coming from. Could she be going to Eric? Well, maybe she was the she-wolf that Eric would like to get mated to.
The image of my mother's carcass filled my thoughts again and I couldn't stop the tears now. I can't believe she's gone like that. What should I say about my pack? The whole pack? The Crest pack has been erased from the earth. Sonia and I are the only survivors. How could this happen to us?
I didn't even know when I got to the dungeon as I was lost in my thoughts. My heart felt so heavy.
I'm just twenty-four. Am I supposed to start my life like this? Am I supposed to accept this fate?
Am I supposed to accept the man that killed my pack as my mate?
Eric POV I couldn’t stop the anger from eating me up. I felt totally angry. I can’t even bring myself to think it through. Stepping inside the room and I took the first thing my hands could get. I threw the vase against the wall angrily. It broke and scattered around the floor. I don’t know why it took me a long time to find my mate and when I do, she’s being so stubborn. Why must the moon goddess mate me to Kahlan? I've just spoken with Sonia and she seemed to be aware of how stubborn her sister can be. Though, she did tell me something very important. Sonia told me Kahlan loved to be forced and dominated. I'm supposed to show her the steel I'm made up of and she would concur. But why does it have to be so difficult? If I wasn't so bothered about having an heir, I wouldn't seriously be here. I give no damn about mates and I'm not going to. I just need to keep the Lycan race running. The thought of it was giving me headaches. Yes, I know she was probably angry at me because she
Kahlan pov It’s semi-dark here but it felt like my life was in total darkness. I felt a huge headache set in and the tears won’t stop flowing down my face. I was the only one in the prison and even around. There was no one to talk to and somehow, it suited my purpose. I seriously didn’t want to talk to anyone. I couldn’t stop crying, I couldn’t stop blaming myself. Maybe my parent would have been alive if I hadn’t left home angrily. Maybe, I would have been able to rescue the whole park. The thought of it made me want to go raving mad. There was suddenly a twist in the lock. “Get out,” one of the guards ordered. I heard alright but it seemed like half of my brain was dead. I stared into the space and somehow, it seemed like I was out of the world and still in it at the same time. “Did you hear me? I said you should get out!” The guard repeated, a little angrier. I didn’t turn to look at him, as I was still lost in my thoughts even though I could hear him vividly. There was
Kahlan pov The kiss was like one I had never tasted before, I seemed new to it. If a kiss could do me like this, I wondered then how the consummation would be. I sincerely didn’t want to think about it. But I couldn’t stop! Suddenly, my mind and head had two minds of their own. No matter how much I wanted to pull away, it felt even impossible. Instead of moving away, I was moving even closer. “See?” Eric had a smug on his face when he finally pulled back. I had to mentally slap myself. If he hadn’t stopped me, I wouldn’t have been able to do so. I heard how thick a mate bond could be but I sincerely didn’t know it would be like this. Well, not with Sonia anyways. She didn’t feel such a strong bond with her mate. Maybe it was because she was just a shifter. She got to decide who she goes with If she wanted. Now that I think about it, I suddenly wanted to exchange places with Sonia. Why can’t I be a shapeshifter? “See what?” I raised my brows at him. “Your body wants me,” he sai
Kahlan POV I couldn't stop the tears from flowing, I couldn't even stop crying. My heart actually shattered when Eric walked out. I know I made him leave and it hurts me so much that we are like this. I've always wanted to know who my mate was. I've always dreamt of finding him but who would have thought he would turn out to be an enemy? The painful thing about this is that I can't even hate him. This thing would only get better if I could reject him but that was even more difficult to do. How would I go about with my life? I felt so miserable. "Hey! Get up before I change my mind!" The guard yelled at me. He must have been so happy that the Alpha permitted him to do as he liked. I forced myself up, yet he moved closer and dragged me out of the cell violently. "If you try to resist now, you will be severely punished," he warned in a thick voice as he pushed me out of the big lonely place. We walked for a moment and passed some men building something I was unable to see clearly
Kahlan POV I laid back, naked and very tired. Sonia was just a few feet away from me. I could have continued the fight even though I'm so tired. But that might result in us killing ourselves. We've already injured ourselves so much. I felt pains at every corner of my body and somehow, my body was taking time to heal. "You are so lucky, Kahlan," Sonia muttered. I let out a sigh. "I sincerely don't know who the lucky person is among us but I'm very certain it's not me." Sonia didn't talk again and I had no idea if she was still breathing. I didn't care anyways. That aside, I was just too weak to get up. So, I stood in the position that I was. My thoughts wandered around for a moment and slowly settled on my mother. I missed her so much that I could cry every day. And my father? I loved him so much. I wished we had settled our differences before he died. Unconsciously, a tear slipped out of my eyes and I didn't blink it away. It was the only thing I could do at this time anyways.
Kahlan POV I awoke with a terrible sense of doom. I had a nightmare, a scene I would love to blot out of my head. If only it was possible, I would really love to erase my memories. But what would that do? It would only force me to do something I hate now. Being with Eric is like my darkest nightmare. I remembered passing out in Eric's arms and I don't know where I am currently. But, I can feel heat slip into me. My body felt guarded. Opening my eyes, I gave my surroundings deep scrutiny. I have been here once and I would never forget it, especially the scent that was in the air. I will never forget Eric's room. And like that, I woke up in Alpha's bed again. Just as I tried to sit up, a hand held me by the shoulder. "Easy. Stay still," the voice said and slowly pushed me back to the bed. I looked up at the strange man. He was tall, maybe the same height as Eric. He has these nice blue eyes that I love. I have always loved blue eyes because my mom has blue eyes. "How do you fee
Eric POV The question caught me off guard. I mean, it's normal for her to ask me who I think murdered her family. But would I say it was my brother? Does it even make any sense if I told her that the man that just walked out of my room a few minutes ago actually murdered her pack? What would she think of me by then? I shouldn't even think about it. She would believe I conspired with Hardin to kill her family. I don't like being in this type of position but there's not much I can do. I have to play the victim card. "I don't know," I let out a sigh. "I'm still searching for who it might be." Her eyes twitched as she continued to watch me as if trying to read my mind. I love the color of her eyes, damn! It's like mine. In short, I love everything about her. "Are you lying to me?" Her voice rang, breaking through the void I was suspended in. I was checking her out already and thinking of how It would feel to have her naked underneath me, on my bed. I know I was supposed to be vio
Kahlan POV I don't know how I'm supposed to feel but how I'm currently feeling very bad. The first offense was the fact that I'm suddenly getting butterflies in my stomach because Eric pleaded with me. Maybe he knew. He knew how much he would affect me. He must have known what he was doing. I cleared my throat and looked away. "Are you giving me conditions?" His voice rang dangerously in my ears, startling me for a moment. I thought my anger was bad, his was worst. I looked at him again. "I'm not a fool, Eric." "Alpha," he corrected in a deep voice. In a flash, he was suddenly in front of me, pressing me against the wall. WTF! He switched so fast. Well, I knew he had something he was hiding. He must have been trying to fool me with those explanations and when he realized it wasn't working, he was back to his old self. A leopard would never hide its skin. His left hand went over my head and his icy gaze roamed around me for a moment. The heat rushed into me again. I could b
