Yvette's POV
"Yvette..." a gentle female voice sounded next to me.As I opened my eyes, I saw a beautiful lady in a white dress standing in front of me."Moon Goddess?" It wasn't the first time I had dreamed of her.I didn't know why she kept showing up in my dreams. I was just an ordinary she-wolf."Yvette Schwartz, your mate is about to appear."Her voice was so mellow that I couldn't help but want to hear more.All of a sudden, a sharp pain shot up from my leg.
I lowered my head and found a red scar on my calf.By the time I looked up, the Moon Goddess had disappeared. Darkness engulfed me.Then, my thigh began to hurt, too."Ouch!" Shilling, I woke up with a start, only to find myself in an unfamiliar room.A mural on the wall was swaying in my blurry vision.'Where am I?'I looked around, semiconscious.
While I managed to sit up, I saw a man standing at the foot of the bed.In his hand was a whip."Who are you? Where am I?" The pain in my leg reminded me that I wasn't dreaming.My voice sounded feeble, as if I had just recovered from a serious illness."Wake up! Or I'll keep on whipping you until you die!"His tone was brash and swaggering. His overwhelming Alpha scent sent a chill down my spine.Douglas Schwartz, my foster father, was the Alpha of the Silver Lake Pack. Yet, the man in front of me seemed much more powerful.I was half-conscious when sweat dripped into my eyes, blurring my vision.
Beside me came slow footsteps.I raised my hand to wipe the sweat. When I jerked my head up, I met an eagle gaze.The man was standing right beside me. The white shirt set off his tall, ramrod figure. His face was so handsome and sharp-featured that it took my breath away. Beneath his prominent nose were two thin parted lips, looking dangerously sexy.Although it was hot in the room, there was not a drop of sweat on his face. He looked elegant and composed.As the wound on my leg was healing, I felt less pain.
So I couldn't help staring at the Alpha in front of me. Suddenly, I felt him familiar.But soon, I came out of my trance, cuz he raised his whip."Who're you? What do you wanna do?" Startled, I wanted to step back, but he just came closer.I unconsciously tensed up my body, my blood running cold."Where is the baby you gave birth to?"He said in a harsh voice as he scanned my body with his icy gaze."What?" I looked at him in confusion.
"Three years ago, you were pregnant with my kid. Where is the kid now?""Your kid?"I was in a complete daze. It took me quite a while to calm myself down.I explained, "Did you mistake me for someone else? I'm just an ordinary she-wolf, and I rarely leave my pack. Plus, I've never seen you."I hadn't found my mate yet. How could I possibly have a baby?"You're Yvette Schwartz, the adopted daughter of the Silver Lake Pack's Alpha. And you're 23. Do you want me to go through the backgrounds of your friends and family?"When he finished speaking, I was slack-jawed.What he said was all true."But I really don't know you."
"Stop playing dumb! Give me my kid, now!"His powerful Alpha aura brought me out in a cold sweat. With a whoosh, the whip landed on my arm.I covered the bruise and shouted, "I've never got pregnant, for God's sake. Can you please check again?"His stare made me so nervous that I wanted to curl up."Fine. I'll check now!"He flung the whip on the floor and approached me."How are you gonna check?" Stunned, I screamed, "Hey ... don't come over!"
He closed in on me step by step with a powerful, terrifying aura. Meanwhile, he fixed his gaze on me like a hunter who had found his prey. The look in his eyes gave me a bad feeling. Something terrible was about to happen..."What do you wanna do? Stay away from me..."I kept backing up until I reached the head of the bed. I had nowhere else to go now.He swiftly climbed onto the bed and knelt before me. Then he put one hand on the headboard and pinned me against it.His shadow completely enfolded me."Run a check, of course."
He uttered a sentence while staring at me without a blink."Even if you wanna run a check, you don't have to come this close..." Panic overtook me."You call this close? Yvette, you'll know what's close in a minute.""What the hell are you talking about?"He hungrily captured my lips. Before I could resist, he lifted my clothes with his big palm. Then, he pressed his strong body against mine, running his fingers all over it. The room was heating up, and so were our bodies...Yvette's POVWithout mercy, he pressed his dick inside me. I couldn't help struggling in pain."No!" I screamed.Waking up from the nightmare, I found myself no longer in the strange room, but my own bedroom.I stared blankly at the familiar room for a few minutes. Then I realized that I had had a dream.That was insane. Why did I dream that I got kidnapped by a man? And he even asked me for his child over and over again.Like that was not enough, he raped me.That feeling was so real that I can still remember the warmth of his mouth and body.Unlike his cold face, his body was incredibly hot, almost melting me.And his figure was simply perfect. Lean and muscular."Gosh, I guess I'm driven crazy by lust."I hated that I was still thinking about the man in my dream. So I slapped my face to bring myself to my senses.Finally, I concluded that the Moon Goddess was the cause. Right after she told me that my mate was about to appear, I dreamed of an Alpha.How could my mate possibly be an
Yvette's POV"I feel like someone's staring at us."Alice's voice suddenly sounded in my mind while I was running. Startled, I almost fell.I slowed down my pace and responded to her, "What are you talking about? Who would do something like that?"Few paid attention to me in the Silver Lake Pack. It didn't bother me, though. In fact, I even felt comfortable with it."I dunno. Just smell danger somehow," said Alice."How's that possible?" I knitted my brow. "The guards are not just for show. They wouldn't allow a rogue into our pack.""Maybe it's not a rogue," Alice reminded.Perturbed, I suddenly felt like someone was actually fixing his gaze on me.So I sped up and ran back to my apartment.When I was going up the stairs, I nearly lost my balance. The pain between my legs was so intense that I grimaced.I quickly leaned against the wall and covered my abdomen.It was so weird.How could the pain of sex in a dream linger on in reality?In discomfort, I returned home.Then I collapsed
Yvette's POVLast night, he kept asking me about a child born three years ago. How absurd!"I don't know what you're talking about," I said. "I'm gonna report you for rape."Hearing that, Black sneered, "You just wouldn't admit it, huh?"As he spoke, he tightened his grip on me. The pain shot up my arm."Let go of me!" I stepped on his shoe with one foot.Black stood still. Though the stamp didn't hurt, it enraged him."Don't you understand what I'm saying?" The smile on his face was replaced with a scowl.I swore he was the most terrifying person I had ever seen. The fury in his eyes was searing me like a fire, and the pain from his squeeze was driving me crazy."You think the werewolves from the Council of Elders would listen to you?" Black pulled me toward him and hissed, "I'll tell them that you offered to sleep with me.""Bullshit!" I couldn't believe that the Alpha King would be so despicable.Using all my strength, I shook off his hand. His men were guarding the door, so I had
Black's POV"What do you wanna do, you nut?"Yvette sat on the ground, looking pathetic. Her eyes were filled with sorrow.For some reason, I felt kinda uncomfortable.But I just ignored the feeling. "Don't worry. I won't lay a finger on a cunning and phony bitch like you again," I said to her.She paled at my words, which vexed me even more.She was such a pain in the ass, always affecting my moods.I turned around, ready to leave. Suddenly, I stopped and eyed her coldly, saying, "If you don't want any more suffering, give me my child. Or, I swear I'll make your life a living hell."With that, I walked out of the old residential building and got into my sports car.Soon, I returned to my castle-like villa.It was located deep in the forest. And I spent a lot of money building it. There were guards patrolling the outskirts of the forest, so humans and other werewolves could never get near it.After I got home, I immediately went to my bathroom and took a shower.I couldn't believe tha
Black's POV"Alpha Black, I'm interrogating her as you ordered." The captain turned around and walked to me with a fawning smile.When I turned my head, I caught Yvette's eye and saw a look of hate.Suddenly, I found the captain annoying.Thud!I couldn't help but give him a kick, sending him flying and rolling on the floor.After a long time, he still couldn't get on his feet.I looked at him icily and said, "Is raping part of the interrogation?!""I was wrong, Alpha Black," the captain replied in fear.Vexed, I ordered the two wolf guards beside me, "Take him out, break his right arm, and banish him! Then get Aubrey here."They immediately dragged the captain out of the interrogation room.Soon, Aubrey knocked on the door and came in."Interrogate her," I said. Then I walked to the chair on the other side of the room and sat down."Hello, I'm Alpha Black's Beta. My name's Aubrey." Aubrey smiled and made a brief introduction to her."What on earth do you want to do?" asked Yvette, as
Yvette's POVAubrey wasn't as arrogant as Black. Yet the certainty in his words rendered my denial flimsy. A wave of frustration flooded me.I had to thank him for reminding me that I had been raped by Black, though. I didn't wanna get pregnant with Black's child.My question stunned Aubrey. He turned his head to look at Black sitting on the other side of the room.Miffed, Black pushed away the she-wolf who was massaging him from behind. "Fuck off!"The she-wolf shot a baleful glance at me and left.I didn't get it. Why would a girl fall for a tyrant like Black?Aubrey bowed respectfully to Black and said, "Alpha Black, I've interrogated Miss Schwartz in every possible way.""Just tell me your conclusion."Black sat on a white wicker chair, resting one hand on his chin, his tone stony."My conclusion is that she's honest," Aubrey reported. "Could it be that we made a mistake?""No way!" Black sprang to his feet and strode over.Then he flung me back into the chair.Thud.It hurt so mu
Yvette's POVIt hurt.I woke up groggily from bed. A sunbeam shone through the large window, illuminating the European-style decorated bedroom."Miss Schwartz, you finally woke up." Aubrey cracked a polite smile.I sat up silently. The discomfort in my body evoked memories of the violent sex last night.I remembered I had passed out a few times because of the pain, yet Black still showed no mercy.He didn't stop even when I was unconscious.My body seemed to have become a toy that he could dally with at will. "Miss Schwartz, are you hungry? We've got a chef here. You can have whatever you want," said Aubrey."When can I get out of here?" I asked out of despair.Aubrey sighed, "Alpha Black invites you here for a visit. You may leave when you give us the kid."A visit? Imprisonment would be a more suitable word.How did my life turn into such a mess? Even my freedom was not under my control.I still couldn't figure out when I messed with this horrible, disgusting man who had zero trust
Yvette's POV"Why?""Because he's Alpha Black," Aubrey said.Dejected, I sank into the chair, my hands tightly wrapping around my body.Every attempt I made was pointless. I had to suck it up."Miss Schwartz, you are too feeble. Eat something," Aubrey said. Then he picked up a plate of cuisine from the trolley and placed it on the desk.Clinging on to the last gleam of hope, I looked him in the eye and asked, "If I go beg Black, will he release me?"Aubrey responded to me with nothing but a sympathetic look.Taking the hint, I lapsed into silence. The days I was trapped in this castle felt like ages.The only saving grace was that I didn't see Black again.Every day, exquisite dishes were served to my bedside. All something I had never tasted.My physical health gradually improved, yet my mental health deteriorated.There were countless guards in the castle. Once I stepped out of the room, I'd be followed. I had no way to contact anyone. To make things worse, Aubrey would come to as
