Lewis POV I watched from the back of the room as she danced with the mate of Lorellia. The queen had now been tasked with teaching not just the mate of the king but both Dylan and Carlos in the ways of being a royal, however my eyes were solely focused on Dylan. She was definitely getting better at dancing, and the more her confidence increased, the more beautiful she became, not that it was actually possible for her to get any prettier. I'd always found her alluring, but now she was almost irresistible. It had been a day since that Carlos guy had been released from the dungeon and he was already being forced to learn how to dance. I suppose it was a good thing in a way, because now Dylan's dance partner had about as much experience as she did, and so ability wise they were very well matched. I had to admit that they were matched in attitude as well. He almost has as much hatred for our kind as Dylan had. Only the goddess knows what the pair of them had been through in the past 5 y
Dylan POVI was angry! Of course I was angry, every single time I felt like I was finally doing something right, reality would come crashing down on me in waves and I ended up in pain. The pain emitting from my jaw was horrendous, as I bit down on Carlos's handkerchief. I hadn't had any sort of tooth ache since I was a child, not that I could have gone to the dentist anyway, nowadays you either suck it up or you lose the tooth. There was no other treatment. I had no doubt in my mind that the gap that now occupied my mouth was still bleeding, as I stormed through the hallways towards the palaces hospital wing. Every hallway we walked through, images of the king and his stupid family rested. The walls were adjourned with pictures and paintings of the regal family, and with every image I past, my anger only grew. I was never getting away, I was going to feel pain and humiliation for the rest of my life. In the end I stopped at a singular painting of the lady who had just caused that d
Dylan POV It was a knock at the door that made me bolt upright in bed. I rubbed my eyes tiredly and looked up to see my handmaiden already staring at me with wide eyes. Why she appeared so startled was completely beyond me. That is until Greta walked in, her eyes immediately squinted in accusation and her words sliced through the silver room. "What is going on here?!" As soon as the woman's voice began I felt the bed jolt from behind me and my eyes followed the movement. A loud shocked gasp left me as the beta shot up in bed, I didn't think about what I was doing when I scurried out from underneath the covers and crashed to the floor after falling off the edge. How could we have both fallen asleep like that? It's a bloody good job the king wasn't there to see us in bed together, I imagine Lewis would have been killed instantly. Although Greta and my personal handmaiden weren't pleased at all about my guest. "There is an explanation for this..." I rushed out as I got back on my fee
King Josh POV3 and a half weeks ago...Once I was completely sat on the plane I sighed. I didn't like the situation at all, I couldn't understand why my goddess given mate couldn't just come with me. Sure she was hurting a bit but you'd think the doctor would have just give her something to numb it until she was healed enough, but no, I had to leave her behind. She was extremely unpredictable, she could potentially harm herself, or even worse. Leaving her was the hardest decision I had ever had to make, and now she wasn't here, I just felt empty. At least I was leaving her with Lewis, he will definitely make sure nothing happens, and I know if Dylan needs it, then he will not hesitate to punish her. I have given him full authority over her. He can do whatever he wants and whatever he needs to do. "Josh, Alpha Grant's last letter states that the death toll had risen, the humans are progressing far too quickly." My Gamma informed me as he held the hand written letter out for me to re
Dylan POV.I couldn't do anything but stand and watch as King Josh stalked towards me, all of my resilience completely dissolved upon seeing him, and with it my body began to tremble. I instantly got on my knee in a very low bow, and waited until he was directly in front of me. "I asked you a question... Did you miss me?!" His tone was deadly as he looked down on my shaking form, he let out a scoff before my shoulders were grabbed and I was hauled up on to my feet, he quickly pressed his nose into my neck, and took a long inhale. Obviously he was taking my scent in. He let out a hum of satisfaction before his claws grew and dug into the skin on my upper arms causing me to wince in pain. "No, I don't suppose you have, have you?!" I swallowed thickly as my eyes darted around the room, Oliver was there, along with the kings father and of course Warren. The one person I wished to see however wasn't present in the room, and because of Lewis's absence a sinking feeling began in my chest.
This Chapter contains strong scenes of Rape, and abuse. Please read at your own risk. Dylan POV"You completely ungrateful bitch." The king was furious as he dragged me up every flight of stairs until he got to his bedroom. I know for a fact that my arm was bruised just from his grip alone and I had no doubt in my mind what was coming my way. "Everything i have done for you, and this is how im repayed? You should be on your knees begging me to accept you, not the other way around".As soon as we entered his room I was thrown in, my forehead unfortunately made contact with the kings closet door handle and blood instantly trickled down my face. My eyesight blurred slightly and everything became somewhat fuzzy. I know I must have passed out for a few seconds because as soon as I was able to see properly the king was hovering over me. "What must I do?" He sounded almost desperate, his words cutting through the silence of the room while I lay on the floor, with nothing but fear coursing
This Chapter contains strong scenes of Rape, and abuse. Please read at your own risk. For those wondering, it’s the last chapter detailing her physical abuse I promise, it’s just very significant to the plot.Dylan POV"You are right! SHES MINE!" He wasted no time in plunging his entire length into me. A cry left my lips and my eyes watered as I realized I was getting fucked in front of beta Lewis. You would think the king would eventually stop finding ways to humiliate me. He was relentless with his thrusts. Each one more powerful and angrier than the last. One of his hands left my wrist and went to my neck steadying himself and blocking my airways again slightly, in the process as he continued his onslaught. "Do you see it yet?!" The king addressed both me and my one man audience as he remained steady and consistent in his movements. "Do you see that you're mine?!" I had no reply as I tried to imagine I was somewhere else, trying to block the pain out of my mind, trying to go som
Dylan POV Go with him? How was I supposed to go with Lewis without getting us both killed? Not that I made any effort in showing him I had heard him, I just stared straight ahead of me, relishing in the warmth Lewis's top gave me. "Shit!" He sounded exasperated, and with it came an unexpected emotion. I suddenly felt a small slap to my cheek causing me to blink rapidly trying to come to terms with the new pain, it was nowhere near what the king usually dishes out though. My sight quickly came back to me and as clear as day Lewis stared into my eyes, blood coated his newly swollen face, as he cupped my cheek. "There she is..." I was utterly humiliated by the events that just took place but I had to shake them off. I really didn't know how much more I could take. "Come on, we need to leave." He hauled me onto my feet and enveloped my hand in his before hightailing out of the room and down the stairs dragging me along with him. My footing wasn't great and I kept falling to my knees whi
