14 ~~~~ She was meant to push him away, supposed to scream at him, or tell him how much she hated him, but Vanilla knew, no matter how long her hatred ran, Darkness needed her, at least for now. Which meant she was safer in his hand. Her eyes searched his, only to find nothing but Darkness, she licked her lips and gulped. “Save us.” She pleaded, remembering the girls still left in the truck.“I only want you.” He responded. “Please.” Her grip on him tightened. “I will do it all willingly as long as you save them and treat them better.” Seeing him unconvinced, she continued. “I know you need me, you need me to bear you child and I will do it.” She placed herself as a bargaining chip. “But you need leverage on me. And they are that leverage, as long as they are protected and safe, I will not try to run or go anywhere.” His lips curled and he caressed her cheek but his expression changed when the slight touch made her winced, Darkness paused, and lifted her head up by her chin.

13~~~~ Her question was left unanswered as she had expected. The ride to their destination was quiet and filled with nothing but defeat and helplessness. Seeing those girls in tattered and dirty clothes filled vanilla with enough disgust to make a bile rise to her throat. Quietly, she thought of how she would escape this. Despite being trapped herself, her eyes swept over the other girls. Vanilla wanted to escape with them. She wondered if that was also how Darkness treated the humans staying with him– somewhere in her heart, the thought didn't resonate with her, he had to be different, But the moment she thought of Connor, hatred, unwillingness, and anger coursed through her, and the urge to escape him intensified.The truck they were placed in like unwanted goods suddenly jerked, then it stopped moving, somehow, she could hear the sound of closing and opening of doors, and the sound of thumping feet as someone made their way to them.“They are coming.” Maya whispered, voice tense
12~~~~ A man stood in a dark, cold place, the sound of soft whimpers and sobs could be heard. “Who.” started Darkness. “Told you to infiltrate my mansion?” His voice held nothing but coldness. Moon Guards Pack was the strongest pack with tight security formations around the pack house, there was no way Vanilla could have escaped without the Frost.Frost crawled on the floor, head hung as he whimpered In sadness from the sound of his Alpha’s cold voice. “I–” he could barely say a thing from how hard his body shook. “Speak!” Darren boomed from the side, making Frost go rigid. Having your Alpha and Beta on your neck was not something a warrior like him would want. Frost crawled from the floor, tears flooding is eyes. “I-it was Lady Imaya. She heard the news that the Alpha has taken a like to a human woman so she sent me to bring the human to her, I didn't expect her to break my arm and run away.” He cried.A deep growl rumbled out of Darkness's chest, his eyes shinning red from rage,
11~~~~Vanilla screamed the moment she saw them, crawling back with horrified eyes. “Oh my God.” Her voice was shaky. The wolves came near her, growling as they did. “Please, don't hurt me.” She pleaded.“Step back” The voice she had heard earlier commanded, and the wolves obeyed. Vanilla immediately looked up, she had not expected to see an innocent looking face filed with bloodlust. Vanilla's eyes widened and she ran straight for the girl.“Help me pleae-” before her sentence could be completed, a loud slap hit her cheek, snapping her head to the side with a loud crack, almost breaking her neck. She fell to the floor with a cry of pain, cradling her cheek as she crawled away. Tears clouding her eyes, accompanied with the rain that had now soaked her and everyone of them. “Pl-please, don't hurt me.” She meekly shifted away, satisfaction filed Layna heart.She bent down and grabbed Vanilla's cheek, examining her, even sniffing her, Vani
10 ~~~~ “What are you doing?” She tried taking her hand out of his grip, not too surprised by the boy's action but by how powerful he was at such an age. “Do you know who I am?” Though she hated it, Vanilla would do anything to survive, so she swallowed her hatred and said.“Darkness would not be happy if he found out you have hurt his woman.” Frost wavered slightly; this was when she confirmed that the boy wasn't sent by Darkness. Just when she was about to calm down, the boy's gaze hardened.“It won't matter anymore, not after you are dead.” He instantly grabbed her and continued hauling her after him; no matter how hard she tried, the boy's grip was still tight. “No. Let me go!” Vanilla had already had enough of being pulled around and getting hurt; she pulled and pulled, but the boy wouldn't let go. Anger filled her heart, and she stopped moving, twisted the boy's hand, and pulled her hand away from the
09~~~~ For a long time,Vanilla only stared at him. Then, her lips curved into a slow, flat smile that held no warmth, she chuckled, eyes filled with laughter and ridicule. “A pup?” she repeated, her tone filled with disbelief and ridicule.“That’s what you want from me? Not pussy, not loyalty… just a womb to rent?” she let out a sharp, angry scoff. shaking her head. “You’re even more pathetic than I thought.”Unbothered by her reaction, Darkness leaned closer. “What?.” He taunted. “You don't want to?” Before reason could intervene, her hand moved on its own, striking his cheek with a sound smack that echoed in the room, her chest heaving up and down, instead of gaining satisfaction, Vanilla's heart filled with more rage. He could have dodged but he didn't. Darkness didn't take her seriously and she knew it.Darkness didn’t flinch. His head didn’t even turn. He just stood there, the faintest trace of a smile tugging at his mouth, as if the sting on his skin was nothing compared to
