LOGINMy legs moved at a rapid speed, running through the corridor, moving from one room to another and trying to get to the place where it all began, the big sitting room where my father and I had met Marcus but I found the room empty.
I kept on looking around, hoping to find someone I could ask questions but the house was so silent to the point of being scary. With no other choice, I kept on walking and running around. I need to find my father and also stop him from leaving and maybe ask him to tell me where I can find him if he insist on leaving. But, as I ran, I felt lost. My heavy eyes were turning red as I stood in the middle of a corridor, my heart couldn't help but clench in pain as the feeling of loss overwhelmed me and even though I knew my father might not be here anymore, I just wanted to confirm, just maybe… just maybe, father wouldn't leave. I folded my fist, my fingers piercing deeply into my palm drawing out blood but I could feel nothing or hear nothing, all that filled my mind was the thought of finding my father. Slowly, I climbed up a stair I had seen while moving around the big empty house, step by step, I climbed up in hope. Somehow, my chest wouldn't stop being stuffy making me uncomfortable but I just don't want to think of that right now. One step at a time, I climb up. “Father, please, don't leave… I want you to be alright, I want you to be—” “Painful! Ahh…!! Alpha! Urggh!!” I paused my steps at the sound of a lady’s cries, I tilted my head to the side, my ears and eyes straying to see where the sounds were coming from, but what followed were soft whimpers. My brows unconsciously furrowed into tight knots, and somehow, my chest which felt stuffy began to beat fast, so fast that even while trying to control it, it kept on losing control. “Urgh…” My lips parted to let out a soft groan, my palm which I had stained with my blood moved to press on my chest and my teary eyes gazed straight at a corner, they pierced through the wall like it had always been my enemy. Not knowing what came over me, I began to move, abandoning the direction I was heading to look for my father but instead began moving towards where I suspected the sounds were coming from. The more I walk forward, the louder the sounds become. “Hmph! Yes… yes! I'm yours, Alpha! I’m your slave…!” I paused my footsteps at the declaration of that voice, something appeared in my brain and my breathing became heavier. “No… How could it be him?! But… who else would they dare to call Alpha in his home if not him? Besides..” My lips wouldn't stop muttering guesses as my legs continued to walk forward following the moans of the female I was hearing. My heart continued to beat like a drum as I kept hoping my guesses were wrong, but as I stood in front of the door the sound sipped out, my eyes went wide in shock. The pheromones that sip out from the corner of the door attacked me immediately almost making me fall on the floor. My legs weakened and only with the support of the wall am I able to hold myself. So domineering… Closing my eyes to hold back the emotions that were about to pour out, I took another look at the light pink pheromones that sipped out of the door, and it's confirmed it— This belongs to only one person, and that is obvious, only SS+ rank Alpha Marcus has this scent which is able to dominate the whole place. Now I know why the house was so empty, why I had tried calling the maids but no one had responded. My lips wouldn't stop trembling, my heart aching and my body weakening even more uncontrollably. That person should have been me! Marcus is mine! Mine alone! Not knowing where the boldness came from, my hand stretched forward and opened the door, then my legs wouldn't listen to my brain as I stepped into the room. I stopped, my eyes shaking to adapt to the darkness in the room, and only when I was ready did I turn to the side, following the sounds that wouldn't stop and walking towards it like a puppet being controlled by something. And finally… I found who I'm looking for, but what I'm seeing isn't what I had thought I would see but, something even more dangerous, crazier but… More wild and dazzling, I lost myself looking at the view. *** In the middle of the room lay a black bed, not too wild but one of a small size and on it lay a naked omega with her legs spread widely and tied to either side. I let my eyes roam over her body which was covered in pink bruises. A black piece of cloth covered her eyes, and her wrists which were tied kept on curling and moving with the sounds of her lip whimpering and moaning in pleasure. My eyes widened as I continued to take in the view in the room. That's not all.. On the other side of the room is a table and on that table lay different items I really couldn't see well but one thing I could see was the large block of ice and how did I know it was ice? Because a piece of it lay softly in the middle of the folds of the omega whose legs were shaking and another one was tied up and kept on dripping on her bruised body from the top. What the hell!!! My legs were becoming wimpy as I continued to take in the fuck is going on in the room. My mouth had long dried up, my body had stiffened the moment I walked into the room and my mind…? They had long gone into a daze. Suddenly, my brows were furrowing in confusion. Something is missing… and what I know is missing is— My body became stiff all of a sudden, my eyes widening in horror and confusion, my heart beat perked up and my soul felt like it was about to escape from me. He… he’s here. He’s… My legs weakened and I found myself slipping to the floor in a daze, but then, I felt it, two hands as cold as ice were steadying my hips. With my lips and body trembling, I slowly began to turn around and— Fuck! “Little Elena.. What. the. hell, are you doing here….?!”Marcus Pov The room became so quiet that I could hear every breath behind me. I slowly raised my hand until my palm rested gently against James’s forehead. His skin felt cold. For a brief moment, I didn’t move. Everyone waited silently. I could feel their eyes on me, but none of them dared speak. I slowly closed my eyes, and a deep breath escaped my lips. Then I loosened the restraint on my energy aura. A soft silver-blue light gathered beneath my palm. At first, it flowed quietly, but within seconds, it became stronger. I could even feel it spread through the room, carrying a pressure that made the air feel heavier. I frowned but still slowly and carefully guided my energy into James’s body little by little, following the connection beneath my hand. The moment it entered him, I felt it. His consciousness was weak… faint, like it could disappear any second. My heart tightened, and my face turned serious. Hold on… Just a little longer. Slowly, I sent another small wave of aura
Marcus Pov I watched as the doctor’s face completely changed. “Move!” His roar echoed through the treatment room. Two nurses immediately sprang into action. One grabbed the emergency tray, while the other adjusted James’s oxygen mask with trembling hands. “Increase the oxygen!” “Yes, Doctor!” The monitor continued to echo through the room. Each sound came farther apart than the last. My eyes remained on the screen, not shifting for even a second. The green line rose… then dropped again. The doctor quickly leaned over James and pressed two fingers against his neck. Suddenly, his breathing became hurried. “He’s fading!” The nurse beside him gasped. “No… his heartbeat is dropping even more!” As the words dropped, coldness spread across my body. The doctor didn’t waste another second. He roared, “Start the rescue!” Immediately, I watched as he climbed onto the bed, then placed both hands firmly on James’s chest. “1… 2… 3….” The doctor’s hands pressed down hard. Then the nur
Marcus Pov The moment I pushed the door open, the smell of blood and medicine rushed into my nose. The private treatment room inside the jet was brightly lit, yet it felt strangely cold. Machines surrounded the bed in the middle of the room, their lights blinking as soft beeping sounds echoed through the room.Two nurses moved around the bed with tense faces, while the doctor who had led me in stood beside them, checking the numbers on the monitor.The moment my eyes fell on the man lying in the bed, my footsteps stopped instantly. For a moment, I simply looked at him.His chest rose and fell so weakly that if I didn’t look carefully, I’d think he had stopped breathing.Without saying a word, I walked over. But the closer I got, the tighter my chest became.My hand reached for the blanket that covered him, and with one pull, I swept it aside. Instantly, James’s face came into view.My fingers froze.His face was so pale that not even a trace of color remained. Dried blood stained one
Marcus Pov The corner of my lips lifted slightly, but I didn’t answer him. I simply looked at him. The battlefield around us was still filled with gunfire and screams, yet in my eyes only Henry remained. Suddenly, he frowned, gritted his teeth, and glared at me. I knew he could see the disdain in my eyes because the longer I looked at him, the uglier his expression became. To him, it probably looked as though I wasn’t looking at a person but at empty air. Just then, I heard the sound of a crack. My eyes trailed down indifferently only to see his fingers clenched so hard that his knuckles cracked. His crimson energy burst out even higher. “What’s with that look?!” he roared, his voice echoing across the estate. “Marcus, don’t think I’m scared of you! This is my territory!” He spread both arms and pointed everywhere as if showing me everything around us. “I can call more men if I want! Look around you. You only brought 20 men, and some of them are already injured, so there is n
Marcus PovMy eyes swept across the hundreds of men standing before me. Every rifle was aimed at us, and their fingers rested on the triggers.Behind me, Nexus and the others slowly raised their own guns. At the same time, their pheromone energy burst out without holding back. Different colors shimmered around them, clashing against the pressure coming from Henry’s soldiers.The tension in the air felt so heavy, it was as if time had stopped moving.I looked at Henry. The man before me no longer looked like a respected Major. Instead, he looked like a cornered beast… or should I say mad and desperate.As I looked at them, there wasn’t a trace of fear in my eyes. Then, for a brief second, I glanced towards the private jet waiting in the distance.My eyes quivered slightly.Everything should be settled now, right?My lips pursed as the thought disappeared as fast as it came. Finally, I looked back at the army before me, and my own aura slowly rose.Silver-blue energy flowed around my bo
Marcus Pov The room turned deadly silent. Every gun remained raised, every finger rested on a trigger, yet no one dared to move.The guard who had rushed in stood in the middle of the room, breathing so hard that his chest rose and fell like he had run for his life.Across from me, Henry stared at him blankly, and for the first time since I arrived, the man before me truly looked afraid.I watched him quietly. The aura around me remained calm, my lips held the faintest smile, but my eyes were darker than the night outside.So… it finally happened. Right on time!Henry, who was in a daze, finally snapped back to his senses. His face twisted with fury as he grabbed the guard by his collar.“What the hell do you mean he escaped?!”The guard trembled. “Major… It’s exactly as I reported! W-We didn’t know what happened either!”This seemed to make Henry even angrier.“Then explain!”His roar shook the room as he lost his composure.The frightened guard swallowed hard, then began to explain
