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 on the sofa, gulping for air. After I adjusted my breath, I turned on the TV.Alpha Black's image appeared again.'Why is he everywhere?!' I wondered.On the screen, he walked out of a building and got into a luxury car, his face deadpan.Before getting in, he suddenly glanced at the camera. The look in his eyes was haughty, condescending, as if he got the world at his feet.He looked exactly like this when he flung me to the bed in my dream.Not daring to take another look, I immediately turned off the TV. My face was burning, my heart racing, and my mind in turmoil. Suddenly, there was a knocking at the door.Puzzled, I walked over. The minute I opened the door, several burly men in black suits barged in."Who are you? What do you want?"They didn't smell like members of Silver Lake Pack."Miss Schwartz, Alpha Black demanded to see you."To my surprise, they bowed at me instead of being rude."What?" I was stunned.'What does it mean? So they came for me?' All of a sudden, they dispersed and lined up on either side of my room.Then a tall young man strode in.His Alpha aura was so overwhelming that I dared not lift my head.The short hair framed his flawless face. As he darted a glance at me, there was disdain in his eyes. He oozed superiority from every pore.Alpha Black.Again.Right in front of me was a man that outshone everyone, but I wasn't in the mood to appreciate his charm.I was simply struck dumb by the sight of him. So that was not a dream.It did happen.What I had been through in the mysterious, unfamiliar room last night was all real.Since I noticed my discomfort in the morning, I sensed that something was wrong. But I refused to believe it, lying to myself that it was nothing but a nightmare.But now, I had to face reality. 'I was raped,' I slumped to the ground and thought.The idea hit me like a ton of bricks!But shouldn't he feel guilty? How could he show up so composedly as if nothing had happened? Black stood still with disgust and mockery in his eyes. Then, he slowly raised his right hand and pointed at me, commanding, "I wanna talk to her in private."He gave an order as if he was an emperor."Yes, Alpha Black!"The men in black suits lowered their heads and left one by one. When the last person went out, he closed the door.Only Alpha Black and I remained in the apartment.He was eyeing me with contempt, a hint of enjoyment on his handsome face. A few minutes later, I finally managed to collect myself. Getting to my feet, I headed to the door in a daze.'I gotta go', I told myself.The strong aura emanating from Black along with the embarrassing memories were killing me.When I passed by, he suddenly reached out and gripped my arm."Yvette, you think you can just walk outta here without saying a word? Do you think I'm dead?" Black's voice was icy. Numb with terror, I just wanted to shift and escape.I tried calling Alice, but she gave no response as if she had disappeared."Say something!" Black roared.After taking a deep breath, I said, "I don't see why I should talk to you now. I'm gonna report you to the Council of Elders.""Report me?" Black shouted, "You bitch! You wanna prevent me from seeing my own child?"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
Black's POVYvette was drinking a glass of water in front of me. The way she swallowed set off her fair skin. Though it was a casual move, it just oozed with sex appeal.Before I knew it, I stiffened.My wolf was getting excited.And my body was heating up.I had to admit that Yvette's face was devilishly captivating to me. Though I hated restraining my desires, I didn't wanna get too obsessed with a girl. So I'd never slept with her since I took her to my house. There were lots of she-wolves waiting to have sex with me, anyway.To me, all women were the same.Strangely, my attraction to Yvette remained.The woman just now was sexy as hell, but I didn't feel anything even when she stripped naked. Yvette, however, turned me on simply by drinking water."It seems I've been too kind to you, huh? You actually have the mood to cook."Dissatisfied with my strong reaction, I mocked her as I strode over. The minute I came near her, a nice scent enveloped me.It was fruity and flowery, like
Yvette's POVAfter tasting it, Black downed the whole bowl of chowder, leaving me slack-jawed.Then he signaled the maid, who immediately refilled his bowl with all the remaining chowder.Black grabbed the spoon and continued to savor it. This time, his movements became much more elegant."Don't put carrots next time. I hate them!"Even so, he still finished all the clams and veggies in it.After that, he pushed the empty bowl forward, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and left without looking back. Speechless, I covered my empty stomach and stared at the bowl.Did he just have the whole pot of chowder? What was he, a glutton?I had only taken a few sips. Poor me.Fortunately, the maid served me the dishes they had cooked for Black. After forcing myself to take a few bites, I ran back to the room where I was temporarily staying.Then I threw myself onto the bed and snuggled down under the covers.To be honest, I didn't want to please Black. On the contrary, I hated his guts.But I learn
