He grabbed my hands, pinning them behind my back, kissing my neck slowly. As much as I didn't want to have anything to do with him, I could feel my wetness. He inhaled and smiled down at me as he grabbed my breast, squeezing them hard with his free hand, so I winced.
"Oh, Iris, you feisty little bitch" he ripped my skimpy white gown off with one shred of both his palms.My wolf wanted this as badly as I hated to admit it, she wanted him to do to. Her a lot of things."Will you obey me, or do I have to bend you forcefully" he repeated.With every venom I could gather, I spat, "I will never bend to your will.""Even as an Alpha?" He was smiling, and I wasn't comfortable with that devilish grin."You're not my Alpha!"He slammed me on the wall, and I winced, my head getting foggy again as he turned me and pushed my head so that my cheek was against the wall. I felt the rope on my hands and almost cried."Good to know, Iris. Let's play a game..."*************IRISSomething wasn't right; I could feel it in my bones. It wasn't the clouds that were dark and stormy or fewer people on the road.It wasn't even that the Alpha's men were everywhere, and I had to follow the bushes to get home to avoid their gazes: especially the fixated glare into my eyes.It was the fact that Father wasn't home, and it was evening already. We were supposed to be training, but he was an hour late because it was six.I came out of the house following the main road path this time. I was looking at the flowers in bloom. It was such a beautiful place; Silver mystic park. It held unique features like the silver lake that gave the pack its name. The lake also separated the pack from the vampire clan.The vampire clan, the Silver mystic pack's hated enemy, excluding the Blood canine pack. It is a famous story that the last wolf who came in contact with one, our ancestor Alpha Onemaus died in the worst way possible by a vampire's hand.Some think it's a myth, but those of us who believe in it, also consider that he would come back and declare war on our enemies.Typical ehnSo none of the werewolves was allowed to interact with a vampire; it had a death penalty.The silver mystic pack was more like a village, unexposed but not hidden. We still followed the old ways of our ancestors when other packs were maddened with technologies.I breathed in the sweet evening scent of flowers and mosses when I heard the whispers just behind me"That's her; she's the cursed one.""She shouldn't be in the park with the normal wolves. Do you see her eyes?""And she Hasn't gotten her wolf yet."I glanced at the two girls talking behind me; they froze in shock that I heard them even when they were so loud.They were Ximena and Kali. The Beta's daughters. Beautiful, dark-haired, tall, and graceful, unlike me, who looked strange.While Ximena had dark eyes, Kali's was blue.My pupils had different colors—each to their hue, one blue and the other Amber with thin black rims. My silver hair made it even more apparent to every werewolf in the Silver mystic pack.Kali and I were seventeen, and Ximena was eighteen. Though only Ximena, the eldest, found her mate."I hear everything you say," I notified them and reminded myself they were the Beta's daughters, so I refrained from pulling out their hair."So?" Kali mocked "what will you do? Infect us with your curse?"They both laughed.I rolled my eyes at them. Too bad for them to start with me, who had a tongue as sharp as a knife "being different doesn't make you cursed. But being stupid does."Their laughter stopped, and in place it was anger. Kali looked extraordinarily furious at me. "How dare you, you low life!"They were Beta's daughters, and my dad was a warrior in the pack. The rank Gap was so wide for me to even stand before them.I continued, "And Ximena, I won't be so happy if I were you that I found a mate in Gamma's son. Even his last mate rejected him for being an abusive bastard."She gasped. Her eyes flashed, and I thought she would bring out her wolf. But for a while, they stayed still, and I knew they were mind-linking. That was another ability I was without.Soon they were both laughing so loud. I bet the joke wasn't all that fun with how they forced it, as their life depended on it.Kali walked towards me, her face close to mine; she muttered, "you're wolfless, cursed, and without a mate; your dad is only with you because he feels sorry for you. Dear Iris, if I were you, I'd stab myself to death or run into the vampires.''My face tightened; my dad was my weakness. His being mentioned broke me to bits, and they knew it. My father was the only one who was there for me. For some reason, I didn't have a mother, and there was no explanation. Some people said I was picked."Now, if you don't mind," Kali continued, "the Alpha wants the most important people at the pack house. When I say, important people. I mean Wolfs."They both laughed again and left me standing, chattering as they walked.It was humiliating walking into this type of shame every day, but what could I do? If there were ever a fight, it would be me being punished. I never did any right in the pack's sight.At least I knew where my dad was. I retook the bushy path to avoid running into Ximena and Kali since we had the same destination. It was faster, anyway.Soon I was closing in on the pack house. There were more people there than I thought there would be. I wondered if there was going to be an announcement.The packed house was a beautiful place. The Alpha loved tradition, so there were more woods than irons which didn't sit well with many people except me. Nature was my thing. It pushed me higher than my extreme.The gazes were expected, but it wasn't welcomed. They always wanted me to feel their disapproval in their glares.Even with the long brown groggy gown I wore, I felt naked.Hurrying my pace, I got into the park house through an entrance I didn't know quite well. I sighed in frustration. Anything to get away from those pesky werewolves., Why does everyone want my neck anyway?I strolled, taking in the house, beautiful with its primary colors, milk and blue. If Luna weren't a lunatic and hated me, this would have been paradise.The pack house was empty. Maybe there were in the meeting room, I thought, hoping to the goddess it wasn't another war. I didn't think Dad could handle it.Yes, he was strong, and all taught me a lot, but then the war would take quite a toll on him.I was passing through doors, hoping I wasn't going to get caught, when I inhaled something strong, quite strong that it felt familiar. Going close enough, I heard the sounds. Stifling sounds. Like someone had their mouth covered by another person's hands."Oh my God, Callum, you're an animal!" The female voice sounding so familiar, moaned.A hard smacked-on bare skin followed, and the voice moaned again.Callum ordered, "shhh, sweetheart, get this done before the Alpha dismisses the meeting."Callum was the Alpha's first son. He had animalistic tendencies. Everyone knew of his escapades, murders, and rape, but no one dared say anything.Curious, I walked to the door, wanting to pinpoint the voice so severely that I placed my ears on it.'oh my God, Callum, harrrrrrrrder."My cheeks turned red as I realized I was getting wet. I let my knees press against each other. 'the voice, so familiarI leaned closer unknowingly, and the door gave way; I staggered inside, and thank the goddess, I didn't fall flat on my face.But that wasn't the problem.They both stopped, glaring at me with shocked eyesThere was Callum alright, sweaty and buck naked and with his knot inside the..."LUNA!" I couldn't help but wince.We all stared at each other in the shock that enveloped us all. Still bent over, Luna looked at me with hate, "what are you doing here?!""Uhm, uhm, I - I lost my way; I didn't mean to—""Reid's bitch" Callum chuckled as he pulled out from her, his knot limp "you want some fun; that might be your only worth, who knows," he said, pointing at his cock.I was horrified. I couldn't believe I was right there with the Luna and probably the future Alpha buck naked "No, no, I don't— "I stopped, seeing the sneaky smile on her beautiful face as she slapped him playfully.Though having two grown-up sons, Callum being the older and Reid the younger with a sweet temperament, she was still beautiful and youthful.'The Luna is cheating on the Alpha with her son?' unbelief filled me.She whined her waist up and down on his cock, and right there, it hardened again. I gasped at the size. The red on my face deepened. Callum frowned at her. "I want to take your mouth, Luna. Take me into that pretty lips.
The confused smile left her face, and my mouth refused to close. What was Reid doing rejecting his mate? Did she wrong him? I doubted that even explained it. Kali looked like someone had thrown her a sucker punch. I didn't blame her. If my mate rejected me out of the blue, I'd do worse. Why was I even asked to stay in this awkward situation?"Reid, you can't possibly mean what you say," she tried hoping it was a joke "it's taking too long. Please call off the joke. You're frightening me."I, too, waited for the prank. It had to be a prank. Where was the *Tada*? He couldn't possibly throw her away like she was nothing.He held her shoulders with both palms "it's not a joke, Kali. I can't play with something as serious as this; I don't want you as my mate."Then he left her and approached me, wrapping his hands around my waist. He looked into my eyes and announced, "if the goddess doesn't give me Iris, then I don't want anyone else."Kali and I gasped at the same time, 'what the hell is
IRISCold Liquid dropped on my face, first in sprinkles, and then floods of it came full all over my body, making me jerk awake. The water was so cold that I shivered as I regained consciousness.Due to the force of my jerk, pain coursed through my body in torrents, my eyes were blurred, and my lips patched.Slowly I opened my eyes, and the first thing I saw was a rat just at the edge of the room, running on a filthy wooden floor with so many dents that if it had lips, it would scream to be repaired.The sound of men laughing had me examining my surroundings. My head hurt, and my sight blurred again. Reaching up to massage my head, I realized my hands were tied to the arms of a chair.'What am I doing here?' I thought, trying to recollect my memories; the sight of the Gamma entering the compartment jolted my memory back on.I had been kidnapped. The Alpha wouldn't have sent for me if not; why am I not in the dungeon instead of this worn-out house that had me scared it might collapse o
I ran through the woods and further down away from my pack. The only pack I had known and grown to love, even with the abuses and frequent degradation, Silver Mystic was still my home.Each time I wanted to stop, I heard Gamma Aroid's voice in my head; his warnings kept on ringing '...But never come back."But then I stopped, looking back.Where was I going without my father? How was I going to live without him? I wasn't strong enough, no matter how much training I thought I had. Making a decision, I walked towards Silver mystic. All I had to do was go through the Alpha and beg him for my life.Hearing voices coming towards me, I hid behind a tree; looking out from it, I saw them. Two guards. Fully armed, matching up towards the Packhouse."...How stupid are you, Zack?" One asked the other, his tone blunt, "it's obvious the Alpha got rid of her secretly. Alpha Talon would do anything for the Pack."Zack laughed. "I can't believe you believe in a curse about a wolfless girl ruining Si
**THREE YEARS LATER**IRISI first felt the hands on my breast as I danced. In the dim, it went lower down to my abdomen. The rage flowed to my cheeks, but I said nothing, just twirled away so his rough hands won't reach me anymore.The room was dim red, containing just a large bed and a pole in the middle. This space was for men who wanted a private dancer and could afford it. The bedsheets and curtains proved it. Silky materials. Red and sinful.The shiny bra, made with beads, shook as my body twirled to the sound of slow music. An Art I learned for a year after coming into Blood Canine.I was a slave here. Found by the owner of a strip club, who also recruited girls to service members. Or pole dance in the pub. But those who had money received VIP treatment like this.Blood Canine was the direct opposite of Silver Mystic. The Pack had a mad system—survival of the fittest. You either survived here or died. It was up to you sometimes. And most times. It was not.Like now, almost nake
AIDAN"I warned you it would be a bad idea, right?" Atlas paced up and down the room, losing the control he never kept in check.I groaned. This felt like the thousandth time we had had this conversation in a week, and Tristan always brought it up whenever a new development concerning the Silver mystic pack came up.Mystic Pack. The name left a bitter taste in my mouth. Three years ago, they asked for help to stop an invasion, and we agreed on one condition. We got the silver lake, but it no longer looked so easy."Alpha Reid stands on the same ground with his father," Tristan continued, his sandy-colored hair glistening as he stared down at the envelope in red stamp sent by silver mystic again. 'ungrateful werewolves, ' I thought to myself."If only you both had listened to me; Silver Mystic isn't worth helping, moaned that repeatedly, but no one listened." I shifted uncomfortably in my seat, rubbing my eyes"Atlas, there's no point blaming anybody. Nobody knew they could eat back t
The reminder went off, but I was already awake, staring into space as other girls I shared the bunk room with hurried with their preparations to take on the pole.Every day, every evening for the girls was like this, the rowdiness and bustle as we collided against each other looking for one thing or the other, clothes and make-up were thrown across. So were contraceptives and numbing pillsThe numbing pills were supplied to every girl generously. Because sometimes, you might get clients wanting to have you at once. Share you at once. That was scary; it was each one of us heartaches. Dozens of knots waiting to get into you. I looked at the clock, 6:40. I only had twenty minutes to dress up and find myself in Master Derrick's Bentley. But here I was, gazing at literally nothing.A light hand touched my shoulder, "not daydreaming again, are we?"Her red hair was the first thing I noticed before I smiled. "Maia, stop interrupting. I was almost leaving this hell hole in my thoughts."She l
AIDANI glared at her back as she disappeared into the curtains, the scent fading away as soon as she left my sight. Confusion flowed through me as the thought of what just happened nagged in my head. Who the heck was she? A wolf of the high ranking? What ranking exactly? When I was a Pack Alpha.I looked into the club and saw its disruption like a tsunami swept through it. People were entangled in themselves. What exactly had caused this so much disruption in a matter of seconds?I looked back at the Casino room into the gold-colored curtain where she had disappeared from my fist clenching and unclenching. All I needed was another minute to show her who the boss was. Whatever she thought she was...I shook my head and trailed down the stairs toward the entrance. A path was cleared for me as swiftly as possible. The dancing stopped. In this place I controlled, I was feared. Was she lucky I was knocked out speechless, or else she would be writhing on the ground by this time?Finally,
