I felt my bones breaking and my face and mouth swelled the more while he kept on punching me like a punching bag.
The beautiful BMW X4 was now destroyed and the car was now seriously looking damaged from the powerful hit my body gave in destroying the car.
All the things he was doing to me, I didn’t flinch nor break any eye contact from him.
I stare dangerously into those demonic heartless dark eyes he possesses, and it did good and I felt nice to see him more furious because he suddenly lifted my damaged body up and was about to throw me to the ground as I close my eyes to say my last prayer when a thick voice, loud and was filled with power and authority stopped him and all we did was to turn and look to the direction the voice came from.
From the top of the building stood Damon, my supposed mate, standing elegantly with his huge big ocean blue eyes looking down at my father dangerously.
My father looked taken aback by his reaction as he stared at him in a confused way.
Suddenly, I saw my father’s facial expression change from the angered appearance to a smiling face.
He looked so happy seeing Damon, but Damon looked like he was not concerned about his feelings, nor his sudden change of attitude.
“What has she done to you to deserve such humiliation and pains Alpha Dakota?”,
Damon said with gritted teeth and I felt the hold on me lessen immediately and I was free again while I fell to the ground, useless.
My father was taken aback by Damon’s sudden outbursts and he looked to be somewhat ashamed or embarrassed when the people who had gathered to watch us began to murmur in a low tone.
I watched him run a hand into his dark sleek hair and smiled like he just did nothing but the look on Damon’s face was not funny at all but became so cold and dangerous that I myself felt the chills coming from him.
“Answer me Alpha Dakota, do not waste my time here. What is her offense to punish her this way?”.
He roared with his Alpha tone gritting his teeth together as he was not able to get the reason why my father was just silent and was looking at him like he was an interesting thing he had ever seen.
“Erm – I do not know what you’re talking about Damon”.
He feigned ignorance and looked down at me with a calm eyes I knew was pure FAKE while shaking his head dramatically that got me wanting to hit him on the nose.
I looked up at him to see him smirking down at me and his left lips held a little mischievous smile on it.
“May I know the reason for your actions, because you looked like you were going to kill her if I didn’t intervene. Been watching you for quite a while now and am surprised no one around here could stop you from hurting her. Isn’t she your daughter?”.
Damon asked yet again, this time more seriously, that got my father looking so hurt on his statement and he looked like he was going to punch him in the face that moment.
It seems like the two didn’t like themselves and didn’t interfere in each other’s business and it shows so well in their way of speech, I said in my head.
I still wonder why my father insists I marry someone my heart didn’t go for, and someone he himself doesn’t like.
He was handsome no doubt and got everything a woman wants, but how could I get myself to be mates with someone like this even if we strangely and strategically became mates, all thanks to the moon goddess who made my fate a ugly experience.
Now I could see my father suppressing his annoyance as he looked like a wounded lion, ready to kill but he quickly hid it just as they had come with a little sarcastic smile.
“Damon, this is my daughter and I get to do what I like with her. I do not owe you any explanation on why I choose to punish her because she alone knows what she did to deserve my punishment”.
This time, my father didn’t hide his annoyance, he yelled using his alpha tone that got me shivering on where I had coiled up into a ball against the car that was now brutally condemned.
I watched the two dangerous, ruthless and heartless men argue and challenge themselves but I did nothing and wasn’t concerned even if they were fighting because of me. I wasn’t just ready to interfere with their matters.
They both caused me to be this way.
I sincerely hate Damon. If he had not rejected our mate bond, I would not have received this beating that almost destroyed my life in the hands of my demon father, I said to myself.
“No amount of trouble that a child has caused a father would make her own father punish her this way. You took things the wrong way and chose to punish her in front of everyone. This doesn’t mean that she isn’t your daughter and you should treat her this way the way you like, hope you know it is an offense to treat a woman wrongly like this?”.
I heard Damon yell at my father as he spoke with gritted teeth, using his alpha tone that got my father annoyed on his statement, because his mouth hung open in wonder.
All through the years I have grown from a child to an adult, I have never seen anyone not even the head or the former Alpha leaders of the whole wolves clan yell this way at my father.
So it was a total shock to everyone who stood watching the show between two Alpha’s challenge and argue with themselves in the open.
The arguments continued and I wondered what would happen next between my father and my supposed mate.
“That I have said and won’t repeat myself again”.
My father retaliated back, as his body shook vigorously from the way he spoke with annoyance written all over him.
“Hahaha. Go on with your threat but don’t you dare lay a hand on her that would result in her death, because I won’t spare you”.
Damon threatened and I felt my father scoff and walk away from his sight.
Minutes later…
I felt my body lifting from where I sat leaning against the car and suddenly, I felt strong arms pull me with full force that my back hit hard on the other side of the car door.
“Argh!”.
I wince in pain, squeezing my face in displeasure.
My father said nothing to me or cared about how I felt, he rather ignored me while Azita, my father’s driver, entered the car immediately after my father came in, started the car and zoomed off.
I curled myself into a ball, protecting my bleeding arm with my right hand.
I felt my body hurt terribly from the series of punches and blows my father battered me with.
I sat silently at where I had coiled up and felt my father’s gaze on me but I chose to ignore his constant gazes on me.
I dare not look back to avoid another punch from him.
Right from where I was seated, I could see Damon staring down at our destroyed car from where he stood watching at the top of the building.
I could see something like pain in his large ocean blue orbs, perhaps he was remorseful of how he rejected me but right now, I don’t fucking care about him or how he felt.
He caused me to be this way.
If not for him rejecting me and my mate a few hours ago, I wouldn’t be punished and humiliated in the open.
I said to myself looking away in an instant with sadness in my eyes and heart.
Half way into the road, I felt my eyes heavy and my head hurt terribly from this headache that never seems to end any time soon.
I could feel sweat building up on my forehead in straight lines and I could feel my temperature getting high, and hot.
I probably caught a fever, who knows?
I remember I had not eaten breakfast this morning and my stomach was grumbling as I let myself wallow in so much pity for myself. Self pity it’s called.
My stomach grumble so loud followed by the banging headaches in my head that I felt my body dying slowly from either pain or hunger, which I know not. I sat silently as I watched my father from the side rear corner of my eyes watching me with this irritation. My eyes became dizzy and I felt my world crashing on me as my eye lid closed and everything turned black. After an hour on the road, the car stopped outside of our pack house and I felt my father come out of the car with Azita trailing behind him in fear. My eyes were too heavy to give way for me to open them. My head felt heavy as well that I didn’t know what was happening to my body. It was like I was carrying the whole world in them. My stomach turned and I suddenly felt the urge to poke. I struggled to open the car door and put my face out of the car and vomited. I felt alive when I did and the cool breeze blew right on my face that I suddenly felt energized in the moment. From where I was seated, I could see my fathe

WRITERS NARRATION Anne’s body was taken to the center of the pack house and burned to ashes for everyone in the pack to see. A lot of people gathered and watch the body burn to nothing, and handled like a commoner. Some stood hands akimbo, especially the women, watching with sadness in their facial expression while some were happy and celebrated the demise of Anne, Alpha Dakota late mate and wife, wishing to be the new Alpha’s Luna. Alpha Dakota didn’t give his late mate a befitting burial like the normal traditional way, as mate should bury a mate if they were dead. He was glad she was out of the way even if he felt hurting but tried not to let any emotions get into him. He thought of the things he would do to Selene, his weak daughter. He also thought on how he would use Selene to get the power he want from Alpha Damon, by marrying her off to him only to gain his good side, then strike when he don’t expect, he thought inwardly with a smirk on his face. “Don’t worry, when I ge
Just as Alpha Damon was busy in his thoughts, he was snapped out of it when the door swing open revealing Levi, one of his body guards, with a concern expression on his face.Damon raised up his head to look towards Levi direction.“What’s the news?”.Alpha Damon spoke with a calm yet commanding voice tone.With a bowed head, Levi said“Alpha, Noir is at the door and is wanting to see you”.Levi stated in a hush tone.“Send her in immediately”.Damon commanded coldly, taking a few sips from his wine.“Ok Alpha”.Levi nodded his response and walked away immediately to bring Noir in as directed by Alpha Damon.Moment later….Noir walked in, dressed in a short sultry red gown and heels with an heavy make-up. She had her face held high like she was the original Luna of the pack and true mate to Alpha Damon.“What do you seek, Noir!?”.Alpha Damon’s eyes darkened as he spoke without emotions in his voice, not even sparing a glance to her direction.Noir was startled on his statement and hi
It was lunch time as Damon lay on his bed tiredly and wide awake, not wanting to get up till he has gotten all the rest he needed. He knew his mother Luna White would soon send for him and he wasn't ready to climb out of bed yet, not even anytime soon. Just as he was contemplating with his mind, he soon heard a hard knock on the door. The knock came with a loud bang on the door and he had no choice but to stand up frowning in annoyance. He knew it was the maid sent by Luna White to call for his attention. Damon had long perceived the maid scent even before she got to his door. With anger, after not sleeping throughout the long night just to stay awake to watch the dark night at the roof top alone, and thinking about the strange girl that appeared to him claiming to be his mate. "What do you need?". He thundered aloud that he himself knew he shouldn't have, but who cares anyways. He is the Alpha and true royal blood. Who dares tries to question his authority? Damon felt the

Go have your sit. The maids has set the table”.Luna White said and Damon only nodded and made his way to the dinning, drawing a seat to
