“You crazy bitch.” I stumbled, immediately the slap hit me.
The pain in my face was immediate, and I could see the tears running down my face and a smile on his face.
My hands flew up to touch my cheek and my nose began to bleed once again, it wasn't as bad this time, however. His laugh filled the room as if he won something.
“You weak thing.” He spat.
He tilted my chin, forcing me to look him dead in the eyes. A shiver ran down my back.
“Do you know why we hate you? Do you?” My body froze up as I felt a hand grab my hair tightly.
“The whole pack hates you because you're a rogue, a slave, and you have a weak wolf.”
I knew this was coming, and I prepared myself for the inevitable pain. The last time he did that, I had a few broken ribs.
His free hand wrapped around my throat, squeezing tight. His other hand went over mine, and he gripped my wrists together behind my back, causing me to cry out.
I could see his smirk from my peripheral vision. This would hurt even more than before, but I couldn't let him do anything more. I felt like my death was as the corner.
But there's something different tonight. It isn't just the pain anymore.
There's anger too.
There's an overwhelming amount of rage boiling through my veins. I know he has no right to do this to me.
No right at all.
The sound of bones cracking broke me out of my thoughts.
I tried to kick him, but it didn't help. I could barely breathe, let alone move.
I wasn't strong after all, I had a weak wolf, and I couldn't fight back when this happened to me.
No matter how much I wanted to. But he wasn't done yet.
“This is your punishment for what you've done.” With every word, he squeezed harder. It only made the pressure increase, it was making it hard to breathe.
Suddenly, I could see stars and my head felt dizzy. I felt like I might black out.
“For the first time ever, the pack will be rid of another filthy rogue!” I felt him let go of my neck, and my hands were still bound behind my back.
I looked down to see blood seeping through my tattered shirt from where the cuts are.
My chest hurts, my breathing feels ragged as I feel my lungs burning. I want to run away, but I can't move. All I'm left with is my legs shaking and the tears rolling down my cheeks.
“Get up.” He barked.
I couldn't disobey. No matter how much I hated him right now, I wouldn't dare disobey the alpha. If you do not submit, then you are killed.
I stood shakily and took a few steps towards the door.
He grabbed my arm. He pushed me forward until my shoulder slammed into the wall and I fell down onto the floor.
He kicked me several times, repeatedly, without mercy.
I felt something inside me break and shatter as he continued, each kick sending shards of glass deeper into me.
I cried silently and tried to curl up into a ball, so I wouldn't be beaten any longer.
“Stop.” I whimpered. “It hurts, enough!!.”
I heard a chuckle in the back of his throat. “No need to beg, little bitch.”
He dragged me up, I shivered while standing, my feet dragging across the concrete floor. He put me in front of the mirror and I stared at myself, trying to make sense of the mess that is my face.
Tears and blood covered it completely. Most of the skin around my eyes has been torn away, revealing small wounds that are slowly bleeding sluggishly.
I wished my parents were still alive, I wished they weren't accused of being rogues, I wished they were not killed unfairly, I wouldn't face what I was facing right now.
He dropped me on a chair, “sit here.” He walked to the entrance of the room.
“She's here.” He called out.
Footsteps sounded and a tall man entered.
A man I didn't recognize, but from the energy emanating from him, I knew he would be an alpha too or someone of power.
I suddenly smelled him, his scent was so delicious that I could hardly believe it. I knew what this scent meant, this man I'm looking at is my mate.
I couldn't believe the moon goddess gave me another chance to have a mate after getting rejected by Alpha Rick.
I knew he could scent me, too, with the way his nostrils flared at the sight of me.
He walked toward us, “Who is she?” he asked.
My heart skipped a beat as I thought about what was going to happen next.
“She's the slave I'm selling to you, Alpha Darren.” Alpha Rick smiled.
Turning to me, he sneered, I suddenly remembered what he said about the pack finally being rid of me.
“How much?” Alpha Darren asked.
“She's not worth anything, but I will give you a price since I've endured her so far.”
“10,000 and that's it.” He stated.
“Isn't that much for a slave that has no worth?” Alpha Darren raised his eyebrows.
“You'll want to keep her.” Alpha Rick replied.
“She's the daughter of Mr. Storm.” He smiled dangerously.
The rage that emanated from Alpha Darren immediately he heard my surname scared me, his eyes darkened, and he took another step forward looking at me for a while.
“I'll pay triple the price.” He announced suddenly.
“Amazing.” Alpha Rick chuckled, he handed the money in the bag he held to Alpha Rick and turned to me.
“Let's go.” He said.
My heart was beating faster than ever and my eyes grew wide, I didn't know what I should do or say.
He directed me towards a car, I entered still shivering, wondering what would happen to me.
I looked back at the car and saw Alpha Darren staring back at me, his eyes filled with so much hatred.
“You'll wish the goddess didn't make us mates, I won't reject you, but I'll make your life so unbearable.” He growled.
“Please.” I pleaded, I don't know what I was pleading for, but I could see it in his eyes, he meant what he said to me.
Leila's POV.I followed him, I was too giddy and excited.He kissed me, ruffling my hair, as I giggled in delight. He told me how proud he was of me and we both laughed at it. His face formed into a smile that didn't exist and it made the butterflies I felt in my stomach go wild again. I loved it when he smiled at me or made me happy.I felt so good, everything was lovely and wonderful, and then he looked down and whispered, “We have to go or we won't see the sunset." He said.I followed him, feeling like I was floating on air, as he carried me up.I couldn't stop thinking about everything that happened and how I felt now.I was filled with so much happiness, love, adoration. I wanted more than anything else to spend my life with this amazing man who had given me all I had ever wished for.He gave me protection, love and care, and I couldn't ask for anything more."We're almost there." He whispered.He covered my eyes as I stumbled trying to find my balance."Be careful." He said
Leila's POV.I groaned as the incessant knocking on the door jolted me awake from my peaceful slumber. Rubbing my eyes, I stumbled out of bed and made my way to the door, struggling to shake off the lingering remnants of sleep.I swung open the door to reveal a young maid standing on the other side. Her hair was neatly pulled back into a tight bun, and her eyes darted nervously around the room. She curtsied before me, her voice trembling slightly as she spoke."By Alpha's orders, I have been sent to get you ready for the celebration, ma'am," she announced, her voice barely above a whisper. "It's the mating ceremony today."Confusion washed over me like a cold wave, and I frowned, trying to gather my thoughts. Mating ceremony?"What... what ceremony?" I stammered, my voice still laced with drowsiness."The mating ceremony, ma'am," the maid repeated, her eyes widening. "You and Alpha Darren's he had been preparing for it all day"My heart skipped a beat at the realization. How could I h
Darren's POV.I stepped into the kitchen, the savory aroma of freshly cooked food wafting through the air. It had been a long day, but I wanted to make sure Leila had a proper meal.She deserved something special, something that would nourish her body and lift her spirits. As I glanced around the kitchen, my eyes settled on the ingredients neatly arranged on the countertop. It was time to create a healthy and delicious dinner for my mate.I started by selecting a vibrant array of vegetables. Bright red tomatoes, crisp green lettuce, and vibrant orange carrots caught my attention.I carefully washed and chopped them, the sharp knife slicing through the vegetables with precision. Next, I reached for a head of cauliflower and broke it into florets, ready to be roasted to perfection.With the vegetables prepared, I turned my attention to the protein. I had bought fresh salmon, knowing that the omega-3 fatty acids would be beneficial for Leila and our unborn child. I seasoned them with a d
Leila's POV.I woke up with a pounding headache, my temples throbbing as I tried to make sense of my surroundings. Slowly, the fog lifted from my mind, and I realized I was in my own room. Relief washed over me, mingling with confusion.How did I get here? Why was my head hurting so much? And then, like a dam breaking, my memories flooded back, crashing into my consciousness with the force of a tidal wave.I remembered meeting the healer and all, I just know the memory didn't leave. Shantel. The name echoed in my mind, carrying with it the terror of the past few days. I had been kidnapped by her and the witch, held against my will in a nightmarish ordeal.Tears welled up in my eyes as I allowed myself to fully comprehend the gravity of the situation. The Moon goddess had spared my life, and for that, I was eternally grateful, I'm sure she sent the blasting moon to kill them.The room seemed simultaneously comforting and alien. The familiar sights and sounds of my sanctuary took on ne
Leila's POV.Opening my eyes, staring at the healer as she cleaned off my bruises, applying ointment on it as the memories of Shantel's wickedness dawned on me.I felt so proud of myself for surviving all the pains and all the torture I received in the hands of that monster Shantel.I remembered how the Alpha carried immediately when he saw me there.She made my life a living hell, my child was my hope and my strength so I had to survive.I would have been devastated if I had lost my child to Shantel's torture, even at the expense that she doesn't know that I'm pregnant her torture was enough to kill a mother and her child."Whoever did this to you must be hell bent on having you dead" The healer said as she slowly rubbed the ointment on my legs."Oh she's definitely hell bent on killing me and Alpha Darren, she's a monster. You should have seen what she did to me. This is just because the wounds were healing." I uttered hastily, trying hard to shade off the thoughts of Shantel becau
Darren's POV"We have to go and find Leila, if anything happens to her I wouldn't forgive myself" I uttered, wondering what Leila must be passing through in the hands of Shantel, the fact that I wasn't there and I don't know where she could be filled me with the thoughts of incapabilities.I've got to find Leila to shade off my thoughts of incapabilities and also to prove to Shantel that she can't get away with her plans, her obsession is quite killing her. "It's dangerous out there,we got hurt when we came back."Aidan stuttered, knowing that his words would get me pissed. Truly his words got me pissed to some point, I lost my appetite for even eating this beautiful meal."I don't care... Besides it's the reason I want to rescue her out of the hands of Shantel" I retorted in a manner that he understood that he had to think about his words before saying it to me to avoid my wrath."Having you in the hands of Shantel would mean her gaining full victory over you and her plan could be to
