CORA
My stomach clenched in hunger and thirst and the threat of my impending death left a bitter taste in my mouth.
I was curled in a fetal position, my hands cradling my stomach as I lay on the dirty floor of the cell that I was thrown into a couple of days ago.
A couple of days ago because I wasn't sure of how many days have passed, I had no way of knowing since the cell was in the underground with no windows and no source of air except the one from the barred door.
I've been left there, probably abandoned to die with no water and food for days and as if that wasn't completely horrible enough, I had to ease myself into that same room because I couldn't bring myself to scream at whoever was near to open the door for me so I'd do it in a more dignified place.
I had more dignity than that.
And I doubted if I'd have been allowed out, Kai wouldn't want that; I was sure locking me up here with no option but to shit and pee here was one of his numerous ways of punishing me.
And if he thinks that this was enough to break me, then he has another thing coming.
I've barely felt my wolf since I was locked up here; it was like she had retreated to the furthest part of my mind and I couldn't even blame her, if I could run away, I'd have to but I couldn't do that.
I still have Kai to kill.
And until his body was left to rust, I couldn't leave.
Until I've avenged how brutally my parents were killed, I couldn't run away.
Thinking about what happened again made tears bristen in my eyes but I refused to let them fall. Because I've spent so much time alone since I was locked up here, I've been forced to come to terms with the great misfortune that had befallen me.
I had lost my parents, my friend, my family, and my whole pack to the hands of a deranged monster who had taken me captive with a plan to do only god knows what to me.
I knew my staying here was going to be hell and I was prepared for it. If I had to go through hell to pay him back in his own coins, then I don't mind, I'll gladly do it.
So that's why I can't afford to be weak and miserable, to let my emotions get the best of me, I had to be strong, to remain strong and tears were not the way of being strong at all.
I felt unconsciousness trying to overpower me from how hungry and thirsty I was and I allowed it, it was better for me to remain unconscious anyway than to deal with my new reality.
Strong hands digging into my neck and crushing my windpipe woke me up and my wolf startled into a defensive position but it was so fucking useless the minute I opened my eyes to meet Kai's emotionless one as his hand tightened around my neck even more.
He lifted me easily from the floor, slammed my back against the wall before flinging me away from him and I landed on the floor with a huge thud, pain ricocheting through my entire body and I had to bite my lower lip till I tasted blood because I couldn't scream.
"How low the mighty had fallen," he mocked, an amused glint touching his eyes as he stalked towards me with heavy unhurried steps as if he owned the world.
"Just take a look at yourself," he continued, "who'd have thought the acclaimed Princess would be reduced to this."
I know I looked anything but presentable; I knew I must look like a nightmare with my white gown that was anything but white now and was still very much stained by blood and all the dirt that must have gotten to it since I was locked up here.
And I've been living in a dung from all the urine and sweat so I was not only looking dirty, I was smelling it too.
"And that stench," he puked, "who'd have thought?"
I ignored him. I looked away from him, not minding his existence even though I knew that'd piss him off more.
"You know," he continued, not deterred by my reactions to him, "it's still not too late to get on your knees and grower and beg him to spare your life, if you do that, I'll ask them to bring food for you and if I'm feeling benevolent, I might even let you go."
"I'd rather drown than open my mouth to beg you for anything," I snapped at him and I didn't even want him to let me go, there was no place for me to go back to. I had no friend, no family, no nothing, and besides, I had to remain here if I wanted to kill him.
"I see that the starvation hasn't gotten to you and you still have the energy to snap at me," he said in a humorous voice before he bent to my level and all trace of humor left his face as intense rage took over and he grabbed my chin forcefully, forcing me to tilt my head up to meet his eyes and I could feel my skin breaking and blood dripping out of it from where he had grabbed my chin.
I tried not to squirm.
"You must still be delusional enough to think that you're still worth something, Princess," he said in a very dark voice that made fear straighten my spine, "but I hate to break it to you that you're worth nothing.-
Even a housefly is worth more than what you are right now and I'll do so well to establish what you're to you. Your life will never remain the same again, Princess. By the time I'm done with you, by the time you've gone through so much humiliation and degradation that you never thought was possible, by the time you've been whipped and punished so many times that it completely incinerates your previous life, you'll beg for death, you'll beg me to take your life but I'll refuse to grant you your wish."
He dropped my chin with so much force that I fell to the ground before turning back and stalking out of the cell, leaving me shaking with the full extent of his words.
What he doesn't know was that I'd never beg for death, not from him, no matter what he does to me.
CORAI remained rooted in that same spot after he left, too tired and drained to even do a thing. I could only lay my frail body on the body, willing unconsciousness to take over my body. I could already feel myself drifting off when I heard the clanking of the door keys but I did not even have the energy to turn to look at who it was and I wasn't even interested in knowing who it was. If it was Kai, he could go to hell for all I fucking care. But it wasn't even him, the scent I picked up wasn't even half as strong as his, and the aura didn't feel anything like his. I felt multiple footsteps approaching me and that piqued my interest a little, causing me to jerk my head to the sides to see three maids right upon and before I could blink, they already grabbed my hands and they roughly pulled me to a standing position. "Who the hell are you guys?" I yelled, surprised that my voice could even be as loud as it was despite being malnourished and drained and I tried to push them off me
CORAHe stopped in front of me and I tried so hard not to squirm under his scrutinizing and feral eyes. "Did they not tell you that I had requested for your presence at dinner?" he demanded in a voice that sent chills up my body immediately but I remained stoic in my seat. "I'd rather eat with a dog than eat with you," I retorted, matching his angry glare. I expected him to slap me or fling me around like he has been doing but to my surprise, he did not do that, he only glared at me harder. "I'm not going to repeat myself, Cora, get the fuck up and follow me.""And if I don't?" I taunted, "What are you going to do? Beat me? Punish me? You've shown me your worst so I can't be afraid of what you'll do to me anymore.""Oh really?" he chuckled in that dark way that sent chills up my chin as he grabbed either of the armrest of the chair I was sitting on and he leaned closer so we were face to face. My spine automatically straightened at our sudden proximity and as his heady scent fille
KAIIf only she wasn't so fucking pretty.Apart from her sheer foolishness disguised as boldness and confidence, her beauty was the first thing I noticed about her after I crunched her father's skull in my hands. Her beauty was the type that was made for adoration and worshipping; that would have been if I wasn't made of a soul that wasn't capable of redemption.With a mouth that looked like it was made to be wrapped around a cock, hair that looked like it was the perfect thing to grab, and while I fuck the stupid feistiness out of her mouth and eyes that were so expressive that I could see the intensity of her hatred for me in them. I did not care that she hate me that much, I loathed her as much and the only reason why she was still alive after she dared to stab me was that I intend to break her in all the cruelest and most deranged ways possible so she'd learn never to act up again. After I left her in her cell, I knew she had to be fed if I didn't want her to pass away before I
CORAIt's been another three days of absolute hell and torture because I was locked up in the room the maids has dressed me up three days ago and I was not even allowed to step foot outside the room at all. The maids were the ones bringing my meals and they've also dumped quite a handful of clothes for me to change into whenever I have my bath. They've never skipped a meal and whichever maid brought it has never failed to make it seems like they were running a charity case or something. I guess since they've got a firsthand view of how useless I was when Leila had made me eat my meal as if I was a fucking dog and Kai had done nothing about it. I was sure he must have enjoyed seeing me degraded like that but I was not going to give both of them the satisfaction of seeing me feel defeated. And I wasn't even surprised that the maids were treating me as if I was a piece of worthless trash and truthfully, I wasn't that bothered by how they were treating me.The only thing on my mind wa
CORA"You dared to attempt to escape?" Kai roared in my face immediately after I was brought to him, his face contorted into all shades of ugly fury and rage that looked like he was barely holding himself together as he thundered over me. I ignored him. "And now you're ignoring him?" he growled angrily, grabbing my chin and forcing me to look at him but even at that, I kept my eyes downcast, not looking at him. I knew he hated getting ignored and he thrived on being the most feared and seen person in the room but he wasn't going to get that satisfaction from me. I was going to treat him as if he was the most irrelevant piece of shit I've had the misfortune of setting my eyes on. "Am I not talking to you?" he growled again, his fingers digging into my chin and pain exploded in my body but still, I did not give him the satisfaction of seeing me talk."You want to play dumb, very well then, Wildcat," he dropped my chin suddenly and I fell to the ground with a loud thud as he stood st
CORAWhat the fuck?My brain could even barely register what was going on as I stared at the scene unfolding right in front of me in absolute confusion. Leila was stretched out on the bed, naked as the day she was born and Kai was sitting up on the bed beside her, stroking his cock. I expected to feel repulsed by the sight of his naked body, by the sight of his dick but strangely, I wasn't. Instead, my eyes were drawn to his length as he stroked himself unabashedly and my mouth dried up as I took in his length. God! He was so hard and so long and thick that I felt all sorts of X-rated images pop up in my head and my mouth dried up completely. My wolf swooned within me, rattling excitedly against my chest at the fact that we were privy to seeing a well-tamed man like Kai naked and I hated myself and my wolf for having this kind of reaction to Kai.To someone that killed my pack and had me lashed like some common whore.Thinking about the lashing brought me renewed hope and energy.
KAIDid I enjoy what happened with Cora?Yes! Hell yes! I've never enjoyed anything in a long while like I enjoyed dominating her like I enjoyed seeing her completely at my mercy, like I enjoyed seeing her bound and helpless.And just the thought of how she had laid helplessly on that table while whimpering at my lashes was enough to make my wolf the happiest. He was practically rattling with me, begging me to let loose and to run wild in the wilderness at how fucking excited it was on seeing the almighty Cora all helpless and pathetic. That was how I wanted her, bound and completely at my mercy. I wanted to incinerate all parts of her life that don't have anything to do with me dominating her away from her mind till her life begins and ends with me dominating her. And I was only getting started with her. I hated how she had held her ground till the end, how she didn't scream or beg me to stop even when I was sure her body could barely hold the pain. Hell! That she-wolf was so f
CORAThey both collapsed and drifted off after their sex marathon and I had to go through the misery of watching the both of them sleep while I could not even do anything to get myself off. I kept my frustrations at bay because that wasn't even the bone of contention, the priority was doing all I possibly could to get revenge on that bastard. They both left me in the room after they woke up and it took a while before another male entered and he was the one that unshackled me and started to drag me toward the room that was assigned to me.For someone who had always cared about her appearance and how I appeared to other people, I didn't care about the fact that I was reeking of sex and arousal as he dragged me down the hallway and to the room.I knew who he was though; he looked really familiar and on a closer look, I realized that he was the one that came with Kai the day my whole pack was massacred and I've seen him around, wielding some sort of authority in the house and I had conc
