Seraphina's POV
I gasped in shock as he filled my mouth with his erection. I tried to pull away but the painful tug in my hair kept my in place. I gagged as the thrust became faster and faster, attacking my throat.
My eyes reddened and my nostrils flared. At this point, I was going to die of suffocation.
“Cry!” he snapped. “Let your parents hear what I’m doing to their precious daughter.”
I hissed internally. If only he knew. If only they cared about me like he believed, but I knew this wasn’t going to affect them. I wasn’t Kristen who was the actual precious daughter.
My mouth hurt. My entire face hurt. Thankfully, he pulled out of me and I immediately sucked in a lungful of air. Tears ran down my face freely. Before I could breath again, he dragged me up by the hair, throwing me on the bed unceremoniously.
I gasped as the air I just found was knocked out of me.
“Spread!”
My lips quivered. What?!
My eyes darted to the door and I bit the inside of my cheek. If I ran away, my father was going to hunt me down and kill me. if I stayed here… I glanced up at Lycan Fabian’s stormy gaze. I was going to die either way, no matter where I was.
Slowly, I opened my legs, closing my eyes as humiliation crawled over me. I felt him on me in another second.
His hot breath fanned my neck and excitement tingled over my body. There was a dull throb in between my thighs and confusion swirled inside me. I shouldn’t like this, I shouldn’t –
“No!” I cried as I felt his hands on my thighs. With one push, he pushed my legs wide apart. I tried to move away, begged and pleaded with every sound I knew, then a thunderous slap landed on my face.
My eyes flaw open and my hand immediately went to my face. He froze on top me. for a split second, he seemed shocked at his own actions but then it passed as though it wasn’t even there.
He growled angrily, baring his canines at me. using on hand to hold me in place, he pushed himself inside me with one sharp brutal thrust.
I screamed so loud my head rang for hours.
Pain exploded everywhere and I saw red in my vision. Without waiting for me to recover from the pain, he pounded into me.
My inner thighs burned and I kept my eyes close as he pounded me further, eliciting nothing but whimpers and whines.
I almost choked when he caught my face in his jaw, forcing my eyes open. “Look at me while I take you,” he growled. “Are you thinking your betrothed should have been in my place? Are you wishing it was him instead of me?”
Beads of sweat formed on his forehead and one of them dropped into my eyes. I didn’t know how I managed it, but I kept my eyes open even as tears ran down both sides of my face.
“Your father did not give my mother the luxury of choosing who she wanted to be with as well,” he said softly. “Think about that. He didn’t give anyone in my family a choice when he took their lives.”
He pulled out and rammed back in and I whimpered in pain. “I’ve heard of you,” he continued.
“I heard you are the Alpha’s daughter and a slut who fucks everything,” he grinned. “You should like this.”
My eyes opened. Did he… was he thinking I was Kristen? Was that why he’d been calling me precious and –
“Why pretend you have never done this before?”
Because I haven’t, damn you! I wanted to scream, but I was already too tired. My body was tired and my tongue felt like lead in my mouth. Even the tears had stopped pouring.
But was Kristen really going around doing this? It was so painful and hurt so much. If it was always like this, then why did she constantly indulge in it? I definitely couldn’t ask her that question no, but anything to take my mind away from what this monster was doing to me.
I suddenly felt dizzy and there was a strange feeling inside me I couldn’t explain. It felt painfully sweet, like a rush of adrenaline and dopamine combined in one.
It filled my abdomen and then exploded.
Lycan Fabian pulled out just then, stepping away from me like I was a plague. When he glanced down at me, he frowned, his nostrils flaring.
“You –” his eyes narrowed. “You are a virgin.”
He said it as if it was an accusation and not evidence that I was not what he claimed me to be. His eyes snapped to my face and instead of it softening after realizing his mistake, it hardened even further.
“Changes nothing!” he spat.
I flinched, pulling my legs to my chest.
He walked to the door, ran a hand through his curls of black hair and muttered something under his breath before turning to face me with a murderous glare.
“Get dressed.” He snapped. “We’re leaving.”
I blinked at him. Didn’t we just arrive here? Where were we leaving to again?
“Where are we going?” I said, murmured when I heard how husky and rough my voice sounded. I felt lightheaded and weak and my head was beginning to spin.
“You will not question my decisions,” he sneered. “You mean absolutely nothing to me. when I make an order, you will simply accept it. Have I made myself clear?”
My lips quivered. I glanced down at my hands, wondering why I expected anything from him. No one ever treated me like I mattered, why should he?
“Do you understand!” he snapped.
I hadn’t even realized he was still waiting for my reply. I nodded slowly. “Yes, Lycan Fabian.”
One tear slided down my cheek and I immediately wiped it away with the back of my hand. I could already feel a headache coming on. Crying will only make it worse than it now.
“Get dressed!” he hissed. “We will leave together. I want your parents to see how pathetic you will be as my bride. I want to see the pride die in your father’s eyes as I snuff them out.”
I opened my mouth to tell him that no matter what he did to me my father wouldn’t care. I was not the daughter he thought I was. I was nothing to them but a burden they were happy to let go of.
But I thought better of it. Telling him I was my father’s bastard daughter wouldn’t change anything. Blood was blood. I was still his child nonetheless and why should he believe my words?
My legs buckled under me as I rose from the bed and I fell to the ground. The insides of my thighs were sore as hell and my body felt as if I had been hit by a train. Maybe getting hit by a train would have been better.
“Get it over with!” Lycan Fabian growled. “I don’t have time.”
I took the dress he had ripped off me and tugged it on, nit bothering to complain about it. As soon as I finished, he threw the door open and my eyes widened as I found my father standing there.
Seraphina's POV The crashing sound of the imminent conflict rippled through the atmosphere, creating a profound vibration that seemed to rattle the very substance beneath us. Before us, we could see the gates of the Lycan kingdom, which were shattered by previous battles but still impressive. But as I stared at them with fear in my heart, I felt something. What could have happened?... Our only option was to confront the enemy forces, who had already encircled us. The battlefield was no longer a distant object to contemplate. It was here. Now. Now is the time for preparation was gone. I stood beside Fabian, his arm rubbing against mine as we looked out at the gathering of enemy men.? He had a storm-like grey eyed mass on the horizon, his face firm but visibly shaken with fear beneath all that. This was unlike anything Fabian had encountered, having fought in numerous wars and leading warriors into battle. This was so personal. "They're coming," he whispered, his voice being low. I
Seraphina's POV The night was heavy for us, a dense thick noise that permeated the empty camp. The training ground we had been preparing for was left in shadow by a faint flash of firelight in the distance, which made it difficult to see clearly. The alliances we were creating were my prayer and expectation. Our confidence was capable of enduring the imminent threat of Rylan Thorn and the rogues. As the wind blew and carried me by, I felt a sense of unease. . There was something that we were unable to grasp. I couldn't remember why. I stood beside Fabian, my hand touching his.’ The. I could feel the tension in his muscles, his body unnaturally stiff, and his eyes distant enough that my stomach sat on it for hours, even after hearing nothing but hear nothing. Fabian: What the hell was up with you? I sounded off and forth, barely speaking. He turned towards me, his grey eyes filled with an incomprehensible feeling. "Nothing." I couldn't put it into words. Just tired.”. My knowledg
Seraphina's POV,Fabian and I walked through dense underbrush with an orange glow from the bright sunlight, as the horses' hooves spun around the earth. It was a dense and tense atmosphere, with every branch, leaf, and tree appearing to resonate with the weight of our task. The war was not solely fought on the battlefield, but also had an impact on those who would stand with us. We sought the aid of the nearby packs today to counteract the growing menace posed by Rylan Thorn and the rogues. This responsibility was weighing down on me, more than any obstacle ever attempted. I wasn’t sure what Fabian would say as they turned to look at me from his horse.I glanced upward and caught sight of him. I felt like my heart was racing, and it was trying to communicate something to me. But I kept my voice even.“We don’t have a choice,” I said. “The other packs outnumber us.”Every day, Rylan Thorn grew stronger and we were running out of time.Nodding and clenching his jaw, Fabian expressed,
Seraphina's POVThe sky over the training grounds hung dull and gray. The light slipped away slowly, and with it, the last bit of calm I had left.My life had never been still. There was always noise, always something. But now, it felt heavier—like everything was building into something I couldn’t ignore anymore.. Like a storm that wasn’t just around me, but inside me too.Everything ahead depended on what I chose to do. I couldn’t walk away from it. The weight was mine to carry.And if I stayed quiet now, we’d all pay for it.It was my responsibility to carry what was coming. I had learned to accept that my existence had ever been a storm, but now it was a tempest of powers within and without me. The destiny of the future rested in my hands. It was my duty to carry the weight of what came next. The future of our kingdom rested on my shoulders, The fate of the kingdom was in my hands. And standing still? That would cost us more than we could affordBelow, the warriors moved quickly,
Seraphina’s POVThe chaos of the battle slowly slipped away, leaving behind a silence that felt too loud—and a sharp pain in my chest.This place… my home. It had once been full of light, laughter, and hope. l felt a sense of solace and pain in the aftermath of the battle, which had already occurred, once a vibrant and promising place to be, my homeland was now replete with poverty. The kingdom that once shined with happiness and love was now nothing but a dark, ruined shell. Thick smoke covered the sky, casting shadows over everything, and the harsh scent of charred flesh and scorched soil hung in the air like a painful memory. The ground was scattered with the still bodies of soldiers and Lycans, silent proof of the fierce and heartbreaking battle that had just ended. However, amid the violence, l stood alone, my heart broken from something she couldn't bear.They were silent proof of how fierce and cruel this fight had been. but this silence, it was worse. The place was ruined. Ev
Seraphina's POV. The night covered the battlefield and shadows stretched across everything. The war was getting worse, but all I could feel was my heartbeat loud and steady, like a reminder of a life I had almost lost.. Rather than being dead, Fabian was gone in terms of his mental and emotional state. This man with whom I had fought and was my friend, had become the object of an incomprehensible thought. I was alone in the woods, and still can hear his words. "Not you, dear.". Not the twins. He spoke it with such authority, as if the decision was already in place. And the worst part? I couldn't argue with him. Not anymore. His vision had distorted his true self. There was no discernible information regarding the kingdom, future or prophecy. I struggled to take a deep breath , as my hands raked through my tangled hair with worry pressing tight on my chest. l felt a storm was rising deep inside me so loud, wild and ready to explode at any moment Fear pricked beneath my skin, icy an
