Valerie

My mind wouldn’t make sense of what I was seeing.

Ava was all curled up in that cage, slumped to the ground and hugging her knees to her chest. She was not crying and fidgeting like many of the other slaves. Rather, she looked as if her battle was already lost, her head half-hung in defeat.

My mind reared back over and over again.

It’s not her. It can’t be her. It just looks like her.

But I knew Ava’s face anywhere. It wasn’t one that could be replicated or mistaken for another. That was Ava. The same Ava I spent every day with back at the shop. The same Ava I saw hauled away by a terrible werewolf with nauseating intention.

Why was she here now?

She had changed so much. The sparkles that once lit her eyes like fireworks were gone now. Her skin, which had always been as sun-kissed as light sand, was pale now. I shuddered at how thin she looked.

What sickened me more than anything were the bruises, peppered over her body. Bruises that were likely put there by her master.

  • Ravished By The Alphas (Reverse-Harem Paranormal Romance)   Chapter 170 Heat rose again

    VALERIEThis night passed with the same dull silence as the night before.Sebastian slept on the couch, while I stretched my small body out on a bed ten sizes too small. I had tried to convince him to take the bed instead. He was covered in wounds, after all. But Sebastian refused.The air felt stiffer than usual. I wondered if I’d made a mistake telling him about my suspicions involving Jasper. Sebastian hardly said a word to me after that.Even after I passed on Christine’s message to him. That she loved him and missed him.I couldn’t shake the image of Sebastian when I told him. How he flinched and rubbed a face up his hand. He rose to his feet after I told him, and asked if I was sure I wanted to go to the Divine Spirit.I was certain, and it didn’t take long to convince Sebastian.He promised to take me to Amara when I felt ready, but if what happened today was any indication of what our next meeting would hold, he swore to send me right back to Xavier.I had agreed to his condit

    XAVIERAres snarled in my head nearly the entire time Ralph delivered his report.He had been irritable since the moment Valerie left out sight. Furious at me for letting her go—furious at Valerie for leaving, and furious at Ralph for not finding a lead by now.I had told him to find a way into Qiovadore. Any way. A mountain path, a smuggler’s route—I would even take help from vampires, if such a thing would give us access to the dragon’s domain.Even if he only had the faintest idea of a possibility, I would have taken it.But he had nothing. No leads, no plans—only more bad news.“The Northeners said entering Qiovadore would be madness,” Ralph said. He wore a grim expression. “It’s sacred ground. The dragons’ domain. Impenetrable. The only way to access it is through air, on the back of a dragon. That’s likely how they took Valerie.”This was nothing I didn’t already know. The high mountains and vertical cliffs, along with the impossible terrain, made Qiovadore impregnable lands.Fo

  • Ravished By The Alphas (Reverse-Harem Paranormal Romance)   Chapter 168 What if it's not her?

    VALERIEI woke up in a startle. My mind was blank—no recollection of where I was or what had happened. My head ached with a usual pressure, and then my memories slowly began to fall back into place.The witch, pressing on the mark on my neck. The way my vision went dark.I recalled the scenes I saw afterward. The memories of a child, shackled in a lonely room. Of all the lost memories that the witch had brought forward.If what Amara said was true, and they really were lost memories—then that little girl was me. Those people were my parents. They were taking me away—but away from…where?It all felt too real to be a lie. I still smelled the sugar and roses on Christine. I felt the cold wind on my face and the snow, sticking to my lashes.Was that why Isabella had never been found?Had she been saved by wizards and taken to the distant North islands, only to die in childbirth?I sat up, my head reeling. I was…in Sebastian’s room again. The chamber was empty, but someone had left me a gl

    SEBASTIANValerie’s breath hitched.Her chest rose in sharp, shallow breaths. Tears spilled from her eyes and I saw them streak lines of red down her pale face. Her body trembled violently under Amara’s touch.A sound caught in her throat. A cry that didn’t quite reach her voice.This wasn’t just a struggle to remember. This was absolute torture.She wanted to cry—to scream, but she couldn’t. It was like something within her was being peeled back. Like she was being flayed from the inside out.Amara frowned. Her fingers glowed faintly, pressing hard into Valerie’s mark. Her gaze was steady and searching. “Almost there…”Valerie’s face reddened. A hoarse sound escaped her throat. Her suffering bristled through me, every muscle in my body urging to lunge.My voice snapped against the silence, “What is happening to her?”“She’s remembering,” Amara replied. She didn’t look up from the sharp focus she had on Valerie. “Her memories are tangled. Layered over one another. I need more time to

  • Ravished By The Alphas (Reverse-Harem Paranormal Romance)   Chapter 166 Escape

    VALERIEI couldn’t moving. Couldn’t speak.I had lost all control of myself. I could only feel, my chest rising and falling with startled gasps. My fingers twitched, my breath catching in my throat.I was trapped inside myself, watching my own memories play out like nightmares. I didn’t know who I was—which memories belonged to me and which ones belonged to the little girl in my visions. They were all beginning to mix together. Who was I? Where was I?For all I knew, we were one person.Suddenly, the blindfold came off. Light poured into the room, too sharp and sudden. My head spun, brightness daggers in my vision. Then, somehow, I felt warmth.Arms closed in around me, soft and careful as they lifted me from my shackles. The woman cradled me like I was something precious to her—her hair a beautiful moon-dripped silver, her skin pale and glowing. Her eyes met mine and she smiled sweetly.Then she raised a finger to her lips, signaling not to make a sound.I nodded without thinking. Th

    VALERIEA nervous unease walked up my spine like tiny insect legs. I shivered at the chill it left behind and looked at the woman.“Who are you? W-what are you?”The woman didn’t answer right away. Instead, she reached a hand out to me and whispered, “Come closer.”Every bone in my body told me not to. Something about this woman was strange and made me terribly uneasy. Her voice was gentle, but the eerie way it reached my ears put every hair on end.I wished Diya was here to tell me what to do. I wished she was here to howl or snarl or pace—or to reprimand me for making the stupid decision to follow Sebastian to this room. But I did not have her guidance here. I was all alone.I hesitate, my eyes falling to the woman’s thumb. It was adorned with a ring—almost exactly like the one we’ve found at Baycrest and the dungeon in Orheroad.The realization struck me and I gasped.She was a witch. Every instinct in my body told me to run, but I didn’t know why. All I knew was that my heart wan
