“I, unfortunately, am here and the service is terrible,” Dominic said as if it was his cafe. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was, because he was stinking rich.“My earnest apologies, Alpha Dark. If there is anything I can do to rectify the mistake?” the owner asked, his face paler in comparison to the cloudy, dark weather outside. He could feel the raw power Dominic exuded and the hairs on the back of my neck stood in attention.“Yes. Either close your business or be quicker when it comes to customers,” he said, his tone dipped in arrogance and his eyes staring at the two people as if they were dirt on his shoes.Suddenly, there was a light thud on the table and Dominic turned to my side. I realized that it was my hand that had made the sound to gain their attention. I took a deep breath,“I think the food was great and you guys did a great job. I would like to visit this place again.” I said, stretching the corner of my lips in a forced smile. I didn’t know why I did this, because the f
WARNING: VIOLENT GRAPHIC CONTENT AHEAD. READ AT YOUR DISCRETION. ALSO THRE IS A CHANGE IN POV. My first reflex was to grab the hand, but something sharp and pointed touched my back and I froze at my spot. It felt like a knife.My captor whispered in my ear from the back, “Don’t make a move, or I will kill you right here.” My eyes widened in horror when I realized the voice.It was the barista!Before I could do anything, she dragged me away from the area. I heard another voice from the back,“Did you get her?” it was the voice of the owner of the cafe,“Yes. We don’t have much time. We have to make it quick before the alpha comes.” the barista spoke,I closed my eyes to take a breath and bit the hand of the lady. She screamed and I was about to run away when something hard and metallic hit my head and I saw black dots dancing in front of my vision.The axis of the room shifted down to the floor and everything turned pitch black.||||||||||||||||||“Do it quick, Samantha! The chants.
I knew this was not real.In the room which I was in, the walls bathed in the orange glow of the small ceiling light, the star encircled with chalk, the skull. It was all the same. And I was lying on the floor, my head leaning against a wall.No, wait! It was me leaning against a wall and if that was me, then how could I see myself from a different angle?It was horrifying how I could see myself and the cafe owner and the blonde chanting prayers in the basement. It was like a part of me projecting out and viewing everything from a third person’s eye. I remembered that I was hit with something hard on my back and then passed out.But why did they take me?“Be quick, Samantha. This evil needs to be wiped out.” the man said, his big eyes staring down at my unconscious form.Evil?“I am trying!” the blonde whose name was Samantha shouted, annoyance clear in her face, “Are you sure it is her, Ben?”“I know it. I can feel it, even from here.” The man named Ben said, his eyes drifting into no
I was dumbstruck at his words. Our room?“What do you mean by ‘our’?” I said, internally dreading the thought of knowing the right answer to my question.“It means you and I are going to stay together in this room from now on.” his deep voice made my heart hitch and I wanted to sprint out of the door and hide in the room that he had assigned me earlier.“Y-you can’t do that. What about…privacy?” I said and gulped the knot in my throat,He clicked his tongue, “You should have thought about that before trying to run.”“But I did not…”I said a bit more forcefully than I intended to and he raised a brow at me, “I mean, I did not run.”“Because you did not get the chance to. If the circumstance was different, you would have taken the chance,” he said in a stern voice,If circumstances were different, I wouldn’t have been in his mansion in the first place. But then maybe I would have been under Sam’s clutches? The thought caused a shudder to wave through my body like a vexatious vibration.“
I swallowed, my face turning cold at his words. I could not sleep with him like that! It’s—its… My cheeks burned crimson at the thought. I looked back at him, “Um, look. I know I screwed up. And I am sorry—” “Oh, are you?” he raised a brow at me as if doubting my words, “Prove it. Sleep beside me.” All the colors faded from my face and my breath hitched. Shit! Shit! This was not helping. He twisted my apology in his favor. I shouldn’t be surprised by now but how could I get out of this situation? Think Avery, think! Dominic heaved a sigh and rolled his eyes, “Come on, kitten. How many times do I have to remind you that I’m an impatient man? Either you come here yourself or I can carry you in my arms to the bed. As if it is our first night.” a smile crept up to his face, his eyes glinting in utter mischief. Heat crawled into my neck and I was so mortified by his words. The image of him carrying me to his bed as if we were married—Holly hell, no! He shifted in the bed, “Looks like
He raised a brow as if he didn’t know what I was talking about, “Do what?”“Close those doors?” I hiked my thumb past my shoulder to point at the doors that were closed shut. This was the second time I saw the doors closing when I tried to run. It was as if he controlled them.Spooky.He let out a mouthful sigh, “I didn’t know that you weren’t taught how to close a door. You put your hand on the handle and push it—”“I am not talking about that.” I said, annoyed with how he was playing around with me, “I know you have something to do with this.”He snickered, “Such a curious little cat. How about you sit beside me and I tell you?”“Never mind. Forget I asked.” I waved my hand in dismissal and crossed my arms over my chest, “I need to go to the washroom.”He shrugged, “Go then.” My brows shot up in surprise and for a second I thought he was allowing me to go back to my room but then he pointed his thumb at his washroom and I flushed.“I-I think I am better with using a separate washroom
Time to execute my Master Plan: Mission Seduction To Get My Phone Back. According to this plan, I would pretend that I have accepted everything (I haven’t by the other way) and gain his trust. Once I was able to do that, he would give me my phone back and even might let me go back to college and meet my friends. My running away from him did not set the example I wanted to, instead he found a way to corner me. Anyways, I should focus on the plan now which seemed achievable to me. He might also lose interest in me in the process? I wasn’t sure about it but it could be possible. After all, a mate bond was nothing more than body chemicals. Wolves did reject their mates. A good example was Samuel himself. Natalie was his mate, yet he went behind her back to bully me and even sexually abuse me. The thought made me scared of what would happen if the Alpha did reject me later as his mate. Would the same cycle of torment repeat in my life? I shook my head. Focus, Avery! I heard the sound o
His face inched closer to my face, his head angled and his lips descending on mine. Was this really happening? Or was I dreaming?He was going to kiss me!I wanted to say something, but my lips felt tight and he was too close, his warm breath falling on the bridge of my nose. I squinted my eyes closed in preparation for what was coming.A few seconds passed and nothing was touching my lips. Huh?There was a light chuckle and I opened my eyes to find Dominic staring down at me with a grin. I frowned and watched him crawl back and stand straight on the edge of the bed, his hands tucked in his trouser pant pocket.I stood upright, my small locks of hair jutting out of my bun. Was he playing with me? The thought made my nerve pop but it was better to stay quiet.His gaze held a playful charm in it and his lips moved, “You are not that good at acting, but I will give you the props for trying.” he winked and my breath hitched.He knew that I was pretending. Shit!I pursed my lips and looked
