One Step Closer Chapter 13
“Hello there. I’m here to work. My name is Lindsay.”“I know.” The man smiled. “Dad told me that a pretty girl would come over today.”“Are you Boris?”He raised his eyebrows and acquiesced.“Mr. Peter said that you have a bad temper though…” I blurted out.Once the words came out of my mouth, I realized that it was really rude to say that.“Dad, you’re talking about me behind my back again!”Boris craned his neck and shouted.Peter ignored him. He shrugged, and then said to me with a smile, “Let me formally introduce myself. I’m Boris, a gentleman.”“Mr. Boris, nice to meet you.”“Nice to meet you too, pretty girl.”I smiled perfunctorily. “I’ll go prepare breakfast, then.”“Do you need my help?” He whistled.“No.” I ran like hell into the kitchen. I only heaved a sigh of relief after shutting the door.Why was Boris so glib?***I made sandwiches and juice for breakfast.“It’s really delicious.” Boris complimented, “Your mom must be a good cook too.”I froze for a moment before smil

When Bishop saw that I was motionless, he shot a sideway glance at me. “What’s wrong? Are you afraid I’ll eat you up?”I gritted my teeth and followed him.He lit a cigarette as he sat on the couch in the living room. After taking a few long puffs of the cigarette, he fixed his gaze on my face and asked in a deep voice, “You’ve been living a cozy life.”I frowned. “What do you mean?”Bishop exhaled a puff of smoke, and his lips curled into a faint smile. “Who was that kid just now?”“It’s none of your business.”Bishop scoffed. He then flicked the cigarette butt and said slowly, “You better figure out where you currently stand and not do anything that will piss me off.”“I’ve pissed you off, haven’t I?”He had not had a proper talk with me since the photo frame was broken.I reached into my bag involuntarily and brushed the corner of the photo frame with my palm. It was almost complete.Perhaps he would not treat me so harshly anymore.In any case, I still needed to rely on his help.

Ryan’s eyes lit up as he looked at me.He turned around and said to Bishop, “What a pretty girl! Is she your girlfriend?”“I’m not.” I denied it immediately.I secretly begged this gentleman named Ryan not to talk nonsense.Bishop obviously resented me. If Ryan said that I was his girlfriend now, he would probably want to kill me.However, Bishop looked at me with a frown and asked, “Are you in such a hurry to dissociate yourself from me?”I could not figure out the reason behind his rage.Would it not be a good thing for him that I dissociated myself from him?After all, my existence was humiliating in his eyes.Ryan seemed to have sensed the awkward atmosphere between us, so he mediated, “Alright, alright. There’s not much time left. Miss, please follow me.”I heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly followed him out of the lounge.“Bishop has a sharp tongue, but he’s soft-hearted. I can tell that you’re different in his eyes.”I smiled perfunctorily.Indeed, I was different in Bishop’
One Step Closer Prologue
The wind brushed past my skin like blades. Kristen, my best friend, and I were running frantically through the thorny briar. Kristen was exhausted. But we could not stop! I had to get her out of the forest. We must not die at the hands of the Rogues. Rogues’ howls and their footsteps were close behind, making my heartbeat pumping in my ears. I saw my mother waving at me from the forest's periphery. She was Gamma. She would put down the Rogues for sure. Kristen stumbled all of a sudden. “Help me! Help me!” My best friend, Kristen, grabbed the hem of my shirt, crying desperately for help. I fell to the ground. My legs were hot and in pain as the withered branches scraped against them. I tried hard to get up, but I couldn’t because she was holding me back. My mother was less than a mile away from me. We were so close to safety! The unpleasant smells on the Rogues were getting closer, but there was nothing I could do. Those unfamiliar, hideous faces were magnified abruptly in my

Lindsay's Pov The dungeon was dark and damp with rats running around all over the ground. The walls were covered with moss, and the air smelled of rotten flesh. I had been locked up here for three days. I hadn't had a drop of water for the past three days. My body was weak. My wolf had fallen into a slumber. She had drained her energy to heal me. I held my legs and huddled up in the corner in my bloodstained white tracksuit. My brown hair withered like weeds, and my smooth, firm skin was full of ugly wounds. Most of those wounds were done by the guards in the dungeon. They tried to rape me more than once because I was beautiful, but they had underestimated me. In addition to my beauty, my fighting abilities should not be taken lightly. Although I was severely injured, I beated the hell out of them. I leaned against the wall and closed my eyes. I needed a rest so that I could save my energy fortheir next round of attacks. The wounds started to throb again. I bit my low

Lindsay's PovSmack!A loud slap landed on my face, knocking me to the ground right away.The slaps made me dizzy and sick.My cheeks were sore and hot, and I could not help coughing and retching.The Alpha looked at me coldly and did not take my explanation seriously at all.He grabbed me by the neck and pinned me against the wall.“How dare you touch Kristen?! I raised my sister like a princess, and you killed her for a spot in the varsity?”The man grimaced, and his voice was icely cold.He did not even listen to my explanation. He just wanted to vent his anger at me.The wound on my back hurt even more under his assault. The Alpha gradually tightened his grip. I was suffocating, and it felt like all my senses were being cut off.My face turned reddish purple with veins bulging on my forehead.I was certain that he would strangle me to death in no time.He suddenly released his grip right before I black out.I slid off the wall, collapsed to the ground, and coughed violently.It w

Lindsay's PovI smelled the intense scent of tequila along the way.I looked at this man sideways. I wasn’t sure if he was my mate.If he was my mate, why had he not responded to to my approach?“How long are you going to look at me like that?” he asked coldly.I quickly turned my head and closed my eyes.The man pulled over to the roadside. Now we were in the territory of the Silver Claw Pack.There was a cabin nearby.I had been saved, but it was not any good news worthed celebrating.“Follow me if you don’t want to die.” He got out of the vehicle and walked toward the cabin.I had no other choices than followed him.The door was opened with a beep. The man stepped into the house and turned on a light.I stood still holding tight in the doorway, looking round the room The man sneered as he stood in the middle of the living room, “What are you afraid of? I could’ve killed you just now if I wanted to harm you. Why would I have waited?”I still did not move.“Come, if you still want t

Lindsay's Pov“Why are you here?”I freaked our and covered my chest with my hands.When Bishop saw that, he sneered. “This is my house. You better figure out what situation you’re in right now.”He was right. I was just a Rogue now. The only reason I survived is he showed mercy and saved me.I was at this person’s mercy to have a place to stay right now.“So, why did you save me?”Bishop smirked. “Don’t you know?”He walked over to look down at me. He was so much taller and I felt the pressure.I could clearly smell the tequila scent he has again. It was undeniably intense.“What are you going to do?” I looked at him warily.Bishop smiled. He then suddenly pushed me down on the mattress, trapping me between it and him.He asked, “What do you think I’m going to do?” I could feel his hair brushing on my forehead. He was getting too close.He fixed his amber eyes right on my collar.His scent enveloped me tightly.I could feel the heat of his chest through the air.I was embarrassed an
