Tania’s POVSTOP THE CAR RIGHT NOW!" Derek growled I looked at him, in that instance I was already terrified, he looked really scary and his beast, I knew Derek was no longer in control. Marcel stopped the car and remained quiet, lowering his head not to enrage the Alpha. He was about to shift, his furs had already started protruding out, his fingers elongated into claws, his eyes were bloody red, and his beast was livid. I knew I am the only one who could calm his nerves now, but I couldn't move it was as though I was fixed on that spot. Little by little, I watched as the once cool and relaxed Alpha shifted into a terrifying beast, breathing heavily, it looked like it was about to pounce on anyone he sees. I was afraid the car would get destroyed hoarding such a large and weighty beast. Summoning courage I moved myself from the car seat towards Derek, I closed my eyes, praying silently as I stretched out my hands to smoothen his furs, the latter stopped breathing hea
Derek’s POV The sun's rays reflected into our room, I stood up hurriedly and shut down the windows knowing fully well it would disturb my mate's peaceful sleep. Last night wasn't easy. Closing the windows, I rested my head on the wall as images played clear in my mind. I yelled at her for the first time, what had come over me, I can't seem to know, it wasn't my decision to yell at her. "Derek, your decision all through this day has been irrational, what has come over you, you're not thinking clearly" she had said in her most soothing voice that I usually picked no offense in, but this time was different, I looked at her with annoyance even if she did nothing annoying."How dare you question me! Who the fuck do you think I am? I am an Alpha, the second most powerful in this realm and you dare question my decision." I yelled at her, she looked at me really shocked, she didn't expect me to raise my voice at her. She nodded as if understanding something and was about to walk out on me.
Tania's pov. I didn't know who it was, but he held me firmly in his hands, paralyzing all my effort to break out, I was sleeping, and hence my strength was greatly affected. I screamed, but my voice wouldn't escape the room, I knew so because of how weak I sounded. "You shouldn't make so much noise woman" one of the people holding me hollered, I was scared, very scared, I searched around with my eyes for Derek, for Marcel, for someone who would save me. I saw this, I knew something would happen when we got here, Derek's sudden behavior, Marcel's protectiveness. They dragged me, bundled me into a car, and sped off, I kept looking outside the mirror, and my eyes grabbed a figure, the figure of Derek coming out of a building, the restaurant opposite where we slept. I wanted to scream his name but my mouth was sealed. "Where are you guys taking me to" I mustered enough courage to ask, they were big, they had scary eyes, and I felt they wanted to kill me, but I just couldn't pla
Open pov. Ryan's hands traveled across Tania's cheek, he remembered her, the weak wolf that was rumored to have committed murder. "Where have you been " he queried, raising her head so she looked into his eyes, she didn't look skinny, sad, and retarded as she would always look when the wolves in his pack ordered her around, now she seemed to have grown courage, she was strong now, stronger than he used to remember. "I..i.." Tania stuttered in her speech, she opened her mouth, but words wouldn't come out, she was still scared of him, he still had that demeanor she feared. The stench of wickedness and hatred for her, she felt deeply, even his voice disclosed it. "You stammer now?" He fired, his voice was low, but it was firm, firm enough to make her tremble. "I am alive, " she replies finally, definitely not an answer to his question, but at least she said something. "You have developed a sense of humor, nice " his hands that had been caressing her face grabbe
DEREK'S POV.I slammed my hands fiercely at the iron rods of the dungeon.I had been semiconscious, but of course, I could sense my surroundings.Different thoughts were racing through my mind. Thoughts about one person... Tania.Anger coursed through my being. I was angry... Angry at myself, and at Tania. Angry at the cursed people who put me and the others here.'Fuck them.' I cursed at them inwardly."Are you alright?" A voice as smooth as silk interrupted my thoughts.I looked up sharply. I knew who the owner is of the voice was of course. Tania!What happened? Wasn't she also captured too?I was about to respond when I sighted two people behind her.I clenched my fists angrily and my veins bobbed through my neck.That bastard! What was his name again? Ryan!I closed up my face. It was Derek... I wasn't going to let them know they got through to me.I focused my gaze on Tania. She was looking at me with tear-soaked cheeks. Her eyes were reddened, and she sniffed. I could see she wa
TANIA'S POV.I could feel the so familiar hotness coursing through my being. I knew I had to suppress the urge.A tribid's wrath wasn't something to behold. But it wasn't my fault, was it?I watched her, as her face crumpled up. She should contemplate all she wanted... That was her business.All I knew was that I wasn't going to hold hostage against my wish. Most important of all, I wasn't going to allow Derek to go away. If he was leaving, I was leaving too. And if the reverse was the case, then I was going to follow him.I breathed hot air through my nostrils and watched her closely.Ryan watched our exchange. However, I knew too well that he was trying to suppress his urge to lash out at me. Say hurtful words to me.The truth about me being a tribrid came so suddenly, that even I was overwhelmed by the weighty consequence of it."Are you sure about your decision? It may affect you. Consider what would happen if you unintentionally hurt the ones around you, as a result of your being
Alpha Derek's POV I looked at her face with a heartbroken expression, plastered on my face.We were back at the pack house now.I was trying to avoid giving an answer to the question she had asked me on our way down here.My eyes roamed over her body, and my heart clenched in pain. Why were bruises all over her body? No, the question would be,Why was she trying to kill herself? I glanced at her bruises again and sighed.It was almost like a patterned design on her body. I was doubly sure that Tania had wounds on the parts of her body which were hidden by her clothes.I drew closer to her,"Tania.... Are you in pain?" I questioned, although I knew my question sounded silly.Why would a person covered in bruises not be in pain?Wouldn't that be ridiculous?I expected her to answer me, but she avoided my gaze and looked through the window."Tania, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for the way I acted back there. I just-" I paused when she moved away from me.I made to get closer to her, but she pul
Tania‘s POV His words scared me, but I was too captivated by what he was doing to me to let the fear cripple me. I liked it, his touch on me as he slowly tried to remove my clothes, there on the bed. Is this the lesson he was talking about? We have done this before and it was pleasant and I would give anything to have him make love to him with his tongue again like the other day. But it was not new. This could not be the lesson. “Do you agree to do anything I want?” He asked again, his voice barely a whisper this time, sending dangerous sensations on my neckline. “Yes,” I nodded with it. I wanted to feel his hands and mouth on every part of my body, I craved it. I gave him the affirmation he wanted. And that seemed like all he needed to carry on with what he had in mind. Instead of me being afraid of the way he was looking at me as if he wanted to devour me, I wanted it. My whole body felt alive even with him just looking at me. His hands slowly held me up, so I
