KadeSatisfaction filled my soul as I watched Silvius stare at me in awe, wondering what I was up to. No, you cannot predict me. "Yes, Alpha," He bowed briefly before turning away from me and walking out of the dungeon. I let out a burst of wicked laughter while watching my prey who looked at me in surprise, also wondering what I wanted to do with sugar and water. I could feel them trying to figure out how the solution could be used in torturing someone and how badly it could hurt. It made them prepare themselves mentally for what was coming for them. It was bad. Very bad. WorseWorst than you could ever imagine. Experiencing torture at the early stage of my life made me knowledgeable in that field and torturing people was what I was good at. "Water and sugar, you want to force us to drink it?" The brave one sneered, pinning me with his gaze. "I want to make your skin drink it," I forced a smile, pleased at their confusion, "Don't over think it. Don't worry, you will witness it,
EsmeraldaPulling out the key card from the side pocket of my new red and white uniform which I had gotten a few weeks ago, after resuming my new job as Alpha Kade's personal housekeeper, I tapped it on the card reader and the door swung open. Strange excitement ran through me as I fought the urge to repeat the process. Giving in to the urge after being overpowered by my childish behaviour, I flashed the card on the card reader and tapped it, waiting for the door to open, which it did in a blink of an eye. Why does it feel so good?!And why do I feel like repeating the process again? Esmeralda, it is not a toy, remember? I scolded myself in vain. Urgh! I'm a bit childish, I knew it. Giggling sheepishly as I caressed Alpha Kade's card, I repeated the process over and over again before satisfaction coursed through me. Much better. Pocketing the key card safely, I fumbled with my pockets before taking out a bunch of keys to open the door to Alpha Kade's personal store room. Urg
Chapter 40EsmeraldaI was able to look past the annoying little piece of clothing that Identified me as one of the workers of the Blood Moon Pack and acknowledge that I was beautiful. Beyond this uniform, I was beautiful. Staining my cheeks in the shades of a rose as a blush worked upon it, I ran my hand over my hair, giving myself one final look before leaving the mirror. Work called. But I found my legs taking me to the huge window that revealed the sight of a garden. I couldn't tear my gaze from it. No matter how I tried, I just couldn't. Turning deaf ears to the voices in my head that instructed me to walk, I ran my hand over the window's edges, feeling its smoothness. A spark of emotions flashes through me, jolting me like I was electrocuted. Alpha Kade was here. No doubt His scent was overwhelming. "Look at this flower, Jade," I gasped as my gaze was locked with some beauties who stared at me in return. I remembered how excited I was to know how it felt, how it smelt
EsmeraldaThe cold fingers of fear brushed against my bare back, sending chills down my spine that left me paralyzed. My blood ran cold and I felt my spirit leave my body. Why now, Moon goddess? Why now?Of all the people I wanted to see, Beta Silvius was the last. After my last encounter with him, I made sure to avoid him everywhere.Seems I ran out of luck today. "If it isn't the new housekeeper," His gruff voice resonated in my ears, making me jump in fear. My palms got drenched in sweat and my heart raced when his deadly burning gaze hovered on my little frame. His face scrunched up and his eyes narrowed as if reading a book critically from page to page. Did I do anything wrong? My legs went numb, unable to support my body when he moved closer to where I stood, enclosing the distance between us.What was he going to do to me?And why was he staring at me so hard like he was about to pounce on me any moment? Unable to control my pounding heart, I placed my hand on my chest, s
Esmeralda Shoulders relaxed, chin raised high, hands balled into a fist, and darkened eyes darted in our direction, he took long strides, placing one foot after another slowly and steadily with his gaze pinned on mine. My breath hitched as his footsteps became loud and clear, indicating his closeness to us. With widened eyes and dropped jaws, I watched him strode majestically toward us, with a powerful aura oozing out of him. A gasp rolled from my lips as he came into view and my eyes met my feet once more, not daring to lock my gaze with his. My hands clipped behind me and my head bowed in submission. What was he doing here? Did he hear our misunderstanding? My heart beat uncontrollably at the thousands of questions in my head. What would he do to me now? Would he continue from where his Beta stopped? Silvius' jaws hung in the air in surprise. I knew that was the last person he wanted to see "Alpha," He bowed for a few seconds before lifting his eyes to meet Alpha Kad
Esmeralda Greeted with unusual darkness, my hands travelled on the wall, flicking the switch, allowing light to flood the room gradually. I released a sigh that I didn't know I was holding from my lungs, relieved at the emptiness of the room. To the Moon goddess, I hated dark places, but no matter where I went, darkness accompanied me. It doesn't leave me out of its sneaky plans. As well as Phoebe. I cannot escape from them. No matter how hard I tried. I muttered a brief prayer to the Moon goddess for sparing my miserable life from death, but I knew sooner or later, it would come for me. If it doesn't come as a result of Phoebe's persistent haunts, it would come as a result of Vanessa's hatred. Worst of all. My mate's cold treatment would trigger my death. So many people that wanted me dead. Urgh! Death. I was so close to it tonight. I could feel its presence summoning me. Its aura filled my nose and its long dark hands stretched to take me to the other side. Fu
SeleneYawning tiredly and rubbing my sleepy eyes, I folded the last piece of clothing, carefully placing it in the laundry basket and locking the laundry room. Work was hectic, and the exercises sapped every ounce of my energy, leaving me exhausted. I craved a bath. A long one.One filled with lavender, essential oils and scented candles. A bath so relaxing and energy-refilling. A warm bath that would be so peaceful, away from the distraction in this house.A giggle rolled off my lips at the imagination, making me hasten my steps as I drew nearer and nearer to my bedroom.I just couldn't wait. Maybe I could do some chants, meditate and awaken my powers, which could help me master them while I was in the bathtub. Urgh! Disappointment hit me like a ton of bricks at the realization. I was a powerless witch.What a shame!Nothing screams pathetic like a witch without powers. How could I even claim I was a witch without being able to perform some magic? Fortunately, the members of
Selene Each agonizing scream accelerated the pace of my legs, fuelling them with a newly found energy. And in a flash of light, all my tiredness and sleepiness were long gone and forgotten as adrenaline took charge. Was everything alright over there? Most especially with Esmeralda? "Hey, come back!" One of the guards yelled before stretching his hands to grab me, but I dodged it and increased my pace. Nothing would stop me from seeing Esmeralda tonight. Not even thousands of guards. "You, get back here!" Another guard ran after me, but I was quick to outsmart him, making him lose me. Swerving left to avoid being caught by an incoming guard who was bent on taking me, I made my way to a huge door dividing both sections. Without thinking twice, I flung it open, throwing myself in. My pace reduced as I was met with an unfamiliar building. Then it dawned on me. I didn't know which room Esmeralda was in. All I remembered was its pink interiors. But there was no way I could lo
