Tessa

I blink slowly, forcing my eyes open.

The ceiling above me is cracked and dusty, cobwebs hanging as sunlight filters weakly through a shattered window. The air smells like rust, dirt, and something rotten.

From the side of my eyes, I notice a body beside, I turn my head slightly and my heart skips a beat. It is one of Aunt Ophelia's men or rather, my father's men.

My heart lurches. “Hey…” I whisper, shaking his arm, but he doesn’t stir.

I exhale and push myself up, my palms having no choice but to touch the dust, my head still spinning.

I see a blurry figure standing before me, I scratch my eyes to have a clearer view, then I blink.

If it isn't the beast himself!

George is standing a few feet away, my heart clenches and I quickly stand the moment I see Aunt Ophelia's letter to the Lycan King in his hands, the torn envelope lying abandoned on the dusty floor between us.

A sly smile spreads across his lips as he looks at me. He gazes down at the paper and looks at me again.

  • Mated To The Brutal Alpha   Chapter 16

    TessaHis driver holds up my chin. I press my lips tightly together and I squeeze my eyes shut. There is no need to try to fight it. My chest tightens as my heart pounds like a warning drum. Suddenly I hear the sharp crack of a gunshot. My eyes fly open. I see that it was targeted to the forehead of George's driver. He falls to the floor instantly while George freezes in shock.My gaze snaps to the direction of where it came from and my heart skips a beat.Damon strides forward with a gun in his grip, his eyes darkening in terror. Timothy and the other guard let go of me instantly.Still, Damon cocks his gun and begins firing at the guards, they drop to the floor, blood spilling across the ground.I throw my gaze at George, he is terrified and so are Rose and Ann. A sly smile spreads across my lips as I see his feet trembling beneath him.Damon's gaze sweeps past me, hardening when it lands on George. Without hesitation, he fires.George grabs Rose by the arm, yanking her in front o

    Tessa“Bring her over here.” George commands.Before I can react, Timothy grabs my arm while another guard, one whose name I am not aware of yet, grabs my other arm.I thrash against them, “Let me go!” I shout, twisting my wrists. “You made a promise to your madam! Remember!”Nothing I say matters. My feet are dragged over the cracked tiles as they haul me toward George.Rose suddenly steps forward, fury burning in her eyes. “You’re the reason George’s fingers were cut off!” she spits at me. “We have to punish her before the rogue soldiers return.”“Aren't you a big fool? Rose.” I say, my voice suddenly calm. “Look beside him, you're already replaced and yet you still put in so much effort for a man that thinks you nothing.”She looks at George, her eyes suddenly pale and sad. At this moment, Ann leans closer to him, her lips brushing his ear. Whatever she whispers makes his jaw tighten. He turns sharply to Rose.“Can you please not interfere in this?” he says coldly.Rose’s eyes wide

    TessaMy heart skips a beat. What does any of this have to do with the beast’s brother? I swallow, his hands still teasing my cheeks.“Should we talk about Alfred?” He leans in, his breath brushing against my ears. “Or should we talk about how I intend to punish you?” He asks, whispering.“Punish me… for what?” I ask, widening my eyes.He pulls out and smiles.I don't find it funny, I think I find him irritating and annoying. He seems condescending and intimidating. He is like George. Entitled rich brat.Nevertheless, my heart still races.“Really… Have you ever shot a man and gone Scotfree before?”I stare at the bandage on his shoulder. I am about to speak but a phone buzzes.I throw my gaze to the direction of the buzz. The female rogue picks it up from the table where papers and maps are scattered beside it.She stares at the screen for a while, then looks at Damon, her expression unreadable.“What is it?” Bianca….. You look like a Moron.” Damon says.She throws her gaze at me. “

    Tessa“Aren't you a fool to think you are in the position to negotiate?” The rogue prince asks, stepping forward.George looks around, his shoulder slumping. He rubs the back of his neck and swallows.“Prince Damon…you got to listen to me. I have a good plan to help you.. it is money that you desire after all…. Money enough to buy your way back into your pack.”Damon, the rogue prince, stops moving the moment he gets too close to George. He folds his arms across his chest.“Take him to the stage!” he says, looking George in the eyes.The rogue soldiers rush and grab George's hands. He struggles to extract himself as he is being dragged to the dais.He turns to me, “I will make you pay for this!!”“Are you sure you want to do this?” A rogue soldier, standing beside Damon, says, her voice barely above a whisper. “Alfred wouldn't like this.”“I know my deal with Alfred.” He whispers, then looks at me and walks ahead.My eyes widen in disbelief and I freeze. Alfred was all part of this. B

    Tessa“So this is why you lied about seeing me kill my sister!” I say, the moment I walk up to George and Rose.She smiles but when she sees others gazing at her, she spats, “I… did see you kill your sister!”“Did you or did George ask you to say so?” I ask, throwing my gaze at George.He tenses and withdraws his hand from hers. He then steps forward to me, “Watch your mouth, Bastard.”I try to speak but I hear a bell. I turn towards the direction of the sound and I see the Rogue Prince walking in, with his guards walking behind him like some acolytes, his shoulder bandaged.Every single murmur disappears, fear creeping out of everyone. He climbs the dais, his expression unreadable. His gaze lingers on George and I for a while, my heart begins to race.I am certain my fear is different from theirs. They all know what the rogues are capable of, what they do to their captives. They haven't harmed anyone yet, he definitely has an agenda and I'm certain everyone of us feels it won't be a

    TessaThe ten guards are now awake and standing behind me while George and his driver stand before us.It's still surprising how they took so much time to wake up, more like the poisoned gas affected them differently.“Is this how you intend us to team together?” George asks, gesturing his hand at the guards behind me.I open my mouth to speak, but the bell rings, making me swallow my words.“We would be fools to actually go out there,” he says.“We?”He shakes his head in disappointment. Like hell I care what he thinks! I'm never teaming up with this beast, even if it's the only thing that can save me from the rogues.“Oh come off it now…Bastard! Don't you think it's time to set aside our differences?....... Especially now that you're my second chance mate.”“Miss Tessa is the Alpha's Heir's mate?” I hear a guard whisper behind me.“Look,” George steps forward. “You and I have been given a chance to start afresh, I will beg Mr Moonbane and my father on your behalf…. and with you, the
