A splash of cold water was all it took for Alesha to wake up. She gasped and her eyelashes fluttered before she looked around to observe her surroundings. The rattling of the chains bound to her reechoed in her eardrums. She was lost and, aside from that, she did not recognize where she was. She could almost hear her heartbeat pick up pace as it pounded hard against her ribcage like it was trying to escape its prison in her chest. She reeked of sweat and blood and her hair was damp with her sweat. Now, she could see them…her kidnappers, and they all had menacing looks on their faces like they weren’t there to play. They meant serious business and she knew that if she offended them, she might not be left off that easy. She quickly stared at her legs, as the thought of what had happened previously, clouded her mind. Surprisingly, her legs were perfectly fine. There were no bruises, nothing. “What sorcery is this?” she questioned her insanity In doubt as she was sure that just some fe
“What do you mean ?” Carl voiced out with concern. He was tensed and it was evident on his face how wary he was. “You will find out.” Lilith just said to him before she hung up. Carl inserted his phone back into his pocket and walked back into the room in a haste. He ignored the worried stare he was getting from Madison and walked towards the wardrobe, pulling out a bag from it. “What’s wrong?” Madison asked him as she stood up from the bed. She was worried, as she had no idea what was going on. It had barely been five minutes since Carl stepped out, only for him to return. She could feel that he was worried and it alarmed her. “We are leaving right now!” he simply said to her without taking a glance at her and just began to take out the bags. “Now? Why?” Madison asked him, as she followed him out. Now she was curious to know what was happening. She followed after him, as she went down the stairs. The floorboards creaked as soon as they were stepped on. “What’s going on?” Paul
Walking into the old abandoned building, Carl set Madison down on the ground as he wiped off the sweat on his forehead. He examined her wound with a deep frown on his face and although it was just a little scratch that would heal in days, he was still angry and bloodthirsty. He wanted to harm those that have put her in such a situation. He wanted to hear them cry out to him for forgiveness as he makes them go through so much more than Madison had experienced. “Madison.” He called out to her while moving a few strands of bloodied hair, away from her face. He bite his lower lip as soon as she did not respond. He was very tired and quickly sat beside Madison while placing her head on his lap. He did not want her to feel sore when she regains consciousness. “Once everything is over, I’ll give you the life you deserve.” He swore as he patted her head, slowly. For some time, there was peace and quiet as Carl just leaned on the brick wall with Madison’s head resting properly on his lap with
Sprinting through the woods, he could hear the sounds of running footsteps after him. His hand pressed on his wounded side, as he gritted his teeth. He needed to get out of here and get to a safe spot. He did not want them to catch up to him, lest he was done for. He could hear howls some distance away from him, and he ran into the opposite. He didn't want to clash with another rival pack. His eyes caught the sight of a small hidden cave, and he ran to it. He limped in and hid behind a boulder, his lips pressed together to suppress any sound from it. His fingers morphed into claws and his eyes glowed yellow, as he anticipated an attack. Luckily for him, his pursuers ran past the cave. He heaved a sigh of relief, as his claws reverted to fingers and the yellow glow in his eyes, slowly faded away. He walked further into the cave and sat on a boulder. His back leaned against the wall and he seethed, from the pain of his healing. " How could she?" He asked himself with anger evident i
Her heart pounded loudly as she heard his request. She won't let him take advantage of her, not like this. She wouldn't allow him to touch her and use her. "Leave me." She begged him but he was having non of it. "Now why should I do that?" He asked her. "You are damn beautiful, you know?" He told her with a glint in his eyes while licking his lips. Madison froze in fear as she realized the situation she was in. Her body started to shake and her palms started to sweat as her body reacted to her fear. She regretted running back here and right now, she wished for nothing more but for Jackson to show up and rescue her from this maniac His tongue caressed her neck, which irritated her. She tried to kick him at his groin as most girls would, but he caught her. "Nah... You shouldn't try that." He warned her and kissed her forcefully, ravaging the insides of her mouth. She forcefully bit him and he released her. Now he was glaring at her with murderous intent. He look so terrifying at the
His cold eyes pierced right into hers for a little while and he stood up. Giving her one last glare, he walked up the stairs, heading towards their room. "Go to your room." Her mother said to her with disappointment clear in her voice, but she did not care. She couldn't care less about how they felt. She should be the one upset and not them. They were about to give her off to a man she doesn't have any feelings for, all in the name of getting a deal and having more income. She was turned into a bargaining chip against her will and it frustrated her. Now they are not only selling her off but also spying on her. She had attempted running away but every time she did that, she was always caught and brought back home. This house, this luxury, everything, seems so disgusting and feels like a curse to her. There was a time she felt so lucky for having everything anyone could wish for, but now, she wanted them all gone. She wanted a simple life, with freedom and happiness. She did not wan
Her eyes stared at the masked man in front of her, with her glass frozen an inch from her mouth. She did not know why but she felt like she had met him before. “Have we met?” She asked him to confirm as her eyes peered at the slits to find his eyes.He was staring at her, unmoving and his eyes were hidden pretty well by the diamond-shaped designed mask. If one was to take off his mask, they would notice the slight smile on his face.“Probably .” He simply said and extend his hand again. “A dance?” He repeated and she took hold of his. Madison grabbed a mask from a tray and wore it on. Maybe this dance was her ticket to leave this God-forsaken place and go where she could be alone. She followed him to the dance floor and placed a hand on his shoulder. She was quite nervous, as she had never done this before. This was her first time, and she didn't want to embarrass herself.Her eyes scrutinized the hall and she could see that chase's bodyguards were no longer with their dance partners
She ignored the greetings from the bodyguards and the maids as she walked into the mansion with her hand constantly wiping the tears that streaked down her eyes. Madison was both upset and hurt at the same time. She did not know if she could bear the insult anymore. She wanted nothing more but to go into her room and lock herself in. “Madison. ” her mother called as she saw her daughter's face. She looked worried and stood up from where she sat. Mr. Allen was equally worried and he also stood up. He might be a very harsh or cold man and father, but he always loved Madison. “Just leave me alone. ” Madison pleaded and walked up the stairs to her room while supporting herself with the railing. “I’ll go talk to her. ” her mother said to her father and headed for the stairs after he nodded. Madison walked into her massive bedroom and ran to the bed, burying her face into it and crying. She was bittered and the only way to feel ok was to release it all. … After Madison and chase came
