Rain's POV

Something hit the surface.

I definitely wasn't being placed on a glass, then it had to be the ground. It was the umpteenth time I would shake, wishing Kane would catch up with us soon enough.

“Is the girl okay?!”

A voice I knew I hated, for the umpteenth time, came at us from the back—or maybe the front.

“You'll so hate yourself when Kane catches up with you.”

A scoff.

A chuckle.

And then they all burst into laughter.

“I'm afraid Kane has deserted you. It's been two days since our journey and nothing of that sort has happened. What is the matter? Perhaps his horse is stuck in the mud.” Another round of laughter filled the—I didn't know what transported us—whether it was a horse or a donkey.

How was I supposed to know when I couldn't see?

My eyes had been shut from the very moment when I lost consciousness. How could they do this?

What did they even want?

“How close are we to the castle, young man?”

“Very close, my lord.”

More tears rushed down my face. But th

    Rain's POV Something hit the surface. I definitely wasn't being placed on a glass, then it had to be the ground. It was the umpteenth time I would shake, wishing Kane would catch up with us soon enough. “Is the girl okay?!” A voice I knew I hated, for the umpteenth time, came at us from the back—or maybe the front. “You'll so hate yourself when Kane catches up with you.” A scoff.

  • CLAIMED BY THE DEVIL ALPHA    51: Oncoming War.

    Kane's POV “Wh—what happened?” “Those bastards!” I cried as I looked at Alec's direction. “They've made a mistake.” I turned and walked away from the shop. Footsteps could be heard from behind, I knew my best friend and the guard walked behind me. “My Lord.” A feminine voice sounded from behind us. It was unrecognizable, unusual. I stopped walking and turned to look at Shayla, she was in tears. “I have come to report myself to you. You must know that I didn't do anything. I have no hand in this.” She fell on her knees. “That's none of my business, Shayla.” “But I didn't do it—” she looked up and met my gaze. Her face had trails in it, a sign that she had been crying. The same thing Darius said to me. “I went to get some fruit and when I came back, she wasn't there. I asked the guard who said the same thing. I didn't do it.” The more she talked, the more angry I got. I didn't want to hear this. There was something else I needed to do. A man I needed to reach, attack, kill.

  • CLAIMED BY THE DEVIL ALPHA    50: A Clue.

    Kane's POV After an endless search, I had almost given up. But I couldn't give up. This was Rain. A woman I had suddenly felt empathy for. I hadn't felt this way about a woman for a long time. She was also the cure to my curse. How could she be gone like that? I walked back from a secret route in the pack—one I had just finished looking into. Still, yet, she wasn't there. Not her scent even. “Did you find her?” I looked up from the ground, snapped out of my thoughts, and shook my head. “I can't find her, Alec. Did you?” “I wouldn't be asking if I did—” he fell to the ground. “What exactly is happening?” He sobbed. “She could have stayed back and not gone to that shop?” “You're not going to blame me, are you?”“I didn't say anything to you, did I?” “Of course, you didn't!” I let out, charging at him. “Tell me if there's something wrong with asking a woman to be given more clothes. Isn't that what you wanted in the first place? Being nice to her. That's what I'm trying to d

  • CLAIMED BY THE DEVIL ALPHA    49: Missing

    Kane's POV Earlier today, I thought it was wise to settle the dispute between my best friend and I. Hours after the women left the pack, I sent for him. “Be as fast as you can!” I screamed at the guard when he was on his way out. “I don't have all day—” it was a mumble, and then I fell on my back, right on the bed. Thoughts filled my head. But none of them made any sense to me. Why would I suddenly think that harm would come to Rain? How possible was that when she was with two people, especially one that loved her more than anything? A sigh escaped my mouth when someone knocked on the door. How much peace could I have in a moment? “Come on in—” I managed to sit up, falling back when I saw who walked in. The same man who walked out a while ago. “What do you want from me now?” “The Beta shall be here with you. In a short while.” Now I didn't know what to think, how to feel. What would I even say was my reason for calling him? The man was mad at me and I could see it whenever w

  • CLAIMED BY THE DEVIL ALPHA    48: One Walk.

    Rain's POV Days passed. The day we would visit the tailor had finally arrived. It was quite early—not so early when someone knocked on the door of my chamber. Without permission to come in, it flung open, revealing my only friend. “You can't still be asleep.” “But I can, that's why I am.” In moments, she caught up with me and jerked the blanket. “The Alpha summoned me this morning. I'm here to do as he says.” Saying these things, she was catching up with the closet where a white towel was snatched. “You should take a bath. I have things to do, besides going there with you.” “I still need some rest.” “Then you shall have to go without me—” She sat on the bed, right next to me. I lay there, waiting to be fully awake. “Alright—” I got up from the bed and walked to the door of the bathroom. “Can I at least, have my towel?” Turning back around, Shayla was there. She handed the towel over while I walked into the bathroom, getting busy the next time. While I wondered what the da

  • CLAIMED BY THE DEVIL ALPHA    47: A Master Plan II

    Rain's POV She looked serious. Shayla had never had this look since we became friends. It showed how serious she was about it. “How—?” Confused, I asked. “How am I supposed to do this?” “Stop being dumb and wake up—” Shayla walked to the window area so she could mop at me from there. “I'll help you. You know this already. All we need is to turn heads against each other and plan our run, Rain.” She caught up with me on the bed, yet again. “But this time around, we must be very careful. This plan could take even months. We just need to be sure it is successful at the end of the day.”She was making a lot of sense. A lot of sense I could almost never make. “This is a good idea, Shayla.” I got up. My legs reached the window side now. “I've never thought about this. I could never, if you didn't come up with it on my behalf.” “That's why you have me.” Silence ruled the room now. She thought about it, and so did I. I would never have thought this would work. But now that I thought
