Elena

My parents sold me.

I’m barely on good terms with them, but I could have sworn they cared more about me. Rejecting me for loving the man with my heart, but letting me off with a rumored psychopath. It’s not as if his killings are silent; everyone knows about them, and unfortunately, I have witnessed him kill people.

“Dear, I’ve never been more proud of you than today.” Mother approaches me, taking both of my hands into her warm hands as she strokes them, her eyes almost shedding tears. I am too confused to speak, the words roam freely in my head, unable to form.

“We haven’t been the best parents, but I’m glad your actual mate is someone worthy of you, of your love and your true self.”

“Mother,” I cut her off, inhaling to calm myself down.

“I would like to speak with my parents alone,” I say, my eyes staring down at my mother, not wanting to turn to the psychopath who certainly has a victorious smile on his face by my side.

“There’s no need for all that, Elena. Your father

  • Chased By The Psychopathic Alpha   Three Steps Back

    Elena I’m dressed in a royal blue, long sleeve, body hug gown, designed with a low V neck, showcasing the gift Mikhail had given me. Actually the whole outfit is a gift from him, but there’s something about the necklace that got me mesmerized. I’m not materialistic so of course it’s not about the gold, rather, it’s the pendant design. It’s a broken heart pendant, attached with blood dripping, and above it is the first letter of my name. The design is intricate and difficult to imagine. To show that it was designed specially for me, Mikhail had drawn it on the letter he had sent to me. Speaking of the letter, I can’t help but imagine Mikhail saying those words tonight. The letter that had each line piercing through my heart. “Dear Angel,My angel even before I discovered, you’re indeed the light in my life. The only one destined for me. Perhaps you are in doubt because I once had a mate that I once loved dearly. I can’t deny that fact. However, your presence did what no one could ev

  • Chased By The Psychopathic Alpha   One Step Forward

    ElenaHoney bear and I have become closer these past days. We even have a routine now, and I can feel her opening up to me, the way I am getting fond of her, too fond of her. Sometimes I wished she were mine instead. I even wished I had met Mikhail earlier. Speaking of Mikhail. I have been avoiding him the past three days and thinking about him all night. It’s foolish, I know, but I am burning with yearning and guilt at the same time. This is Mikhail, he had hurt me in the spots it most hurt. Besides that, there’s Ezekiel, I can’t betray him. He has been through so much, lost everything, all because of him. What happens when he finds out I’m in a relationship with the man who ruined his life? My heart has begun to sting again, that dull ache settling in slowly, the breeze that once wrapped around me as a comforting shield is now like a burning flame. “Elena? Are you there?” I’m snapped to the present, meeting the gaze of the little girl standing before me. I darted my gaze to the

  • Chased By The Psychopathic Alpha   The Way Out

    Mikhail“Well, hello me, good morning, yes, I did have a good night's rest, wowwww, thanks for being so kind,” I had been so lost in my own thoughts that I did not notice Darius's presence. To be honest, I had seen him walk in, I ignored him, and he faded into the background as Elena hit my mind. It has been that way for the past three days now. Losing track of whatever I’m doing whenever she returned to my mind, whenever I replayed that moment in the kitchen. I could swear something was starting to work between us. I needed to change, and she just needed a little pressing on, that’s what I thought would help us take a step into a healthy relationship between us. But she had rejected me. This is not my pride hurting right now; I know that because she had hurt my pride a thousand times. There’s a dull ache in my chest, similar to the pain after I discovered Beatrice had been betraying me. It’s crazy this time, because I have begun developing feelings for Elena, I admit that, but I’

  • Chased By The Psychopathic Alpha   Lies And Confession

    Elena “She’s your daughter, how can she have my last name?” The look on Mikhail’s face displayed resignation, as if that was the only solution on the ground. He had his head resting on his palm, with his elbow on the counter, seemingly exhausted. “You’ve seen what happens when my people’s identity is exposed,” Mikhail begins with a low voice. Despite how low he speaks, I can feel the weight of his words; it’s shocking, but I think Mikhail is in an emotional state, not the usual angry kind. He seems…sad? “Schwoz only found out recently, and he wasted no time using her as a weapon to fire at me. There are many more, Elena, worse…including her mother,” I felt a slight piercing in my chest, perhaps it’s because I’m about to hear what I have been waiting for. What Mikhail seems to have been avoiding talking about. Which is why I tried my best to keep a straight face, not to make gestures that would cause him to stop speaking. Mikhail chuckled bitterly before continuing. “She would use

  • Chased By The Psychopathic Alpha   The Other Side Of The Psychopath

    Elena We had returned to the pack It’s sad that my first time in the States went down in the mud. It has almost ruined my profound dream of moving there. I feel like I would recall the events of these past few days if I ever return. But at least everyone is safe and we are back to the usual…perhaps not. There has been a shift in the air between Mikhail and I. Questions and answers linger between us, but it isn’t that intense, thanks to Esther, or I should go back to calling her honey bear; besides she wasn’t able to register the name. Daniela still has two days to return, and so I had no one to just sit around with, although we said nothing, there was just this bit of relaxation I got with her around. “I’ll prepare lunch,” I announce the minute we are inside the pack house.“No need for that, a maid has been sent over for that, you should rest,” Mikhail says from behind. I had long halted when he began responding, both Es–honey bear and me. This time, I turn to him.“Isn’t it ris

  • Chased By The Psychopathic Alpha   Safe Now

    ElenaIt has been hours since I left Mikhail in that mansion. I was escorted out by the pack guards, but all through the ride, I couldn’t help but worry about Mikhail. It’s the first time I feel such emotion towards him. After all, Schwoz is no normal being. He’s the president, and if Mikhail should get caught, I’m not even sure of the safety of the entire pack, much less him and Esther. Speaking of Esther, she is safe, as Mikhail stated. We are in Mikhail’s suite, just us in the dimly lit room, Esther wrapped with thick clothes under the duvet. She had a drip injected into her hands, but she looked less pale than when she was locked up. I shift the strands of hair that sat against her eyelash. I can feel a sting in my chest just by looking at her. Goddess, I pray he comes out fine. I don’t care what happens with Schwoz at this point; my major concern is Mikhail. My attention is pulled to the present as Esther shifts, her eyes slowly fluttering open, perhaps adjusting her vision.
