Scumbag Contract Husband, My Regretful Mate is Back Chapter 13
Hazel felt the dungeons damp dark air pressing down on her from every side. Her knees were drawn to her chest as she sat against the chilly rugged wall.Even though her healing ability was trying to knit her wounds together, every muscle in her body hurt and they burned. She has suffered too much damage for her rogue body to heal quickly, so it was painfully slow. Hazel was so frustrated that she clenched her fists, her sharp nails digging into her palms. What had happened? She had been free fighting the odds as a rogue wolf one minute, and then she was shackled like an animal treated like dirt the next.Her thoughts faintly echoed Mira's voice. The female guard had arrived earlier and Hazel was surprised to see how her angular features softened with sympathy.Though it wasn't much she had brought food enough to sustain Hazel. Hazel was able to move more freely after Mira even slightly relaxed her restraints. Before leaving, Mira had said in a cautious tone. "The boss wants me to

At the head of the long wooden table, Ryland sat calmly and composedly while the pack's elders talked about pressing issues. Candlelight flickered in the dimly lit room, creating shadows on the walls that were decorated with the history of the pack. Ryland hardly noticed the subtle scent of burning pinewood in the air. Shit!His mind was faraway again.“There are more rogue attacks than necessary,” Elder Malcolm stated solemnly. “Security along the borders needs to be strengthened. I don't know why you are allowing rogues to get into the pack.”He hissed in frustration, but he knew better not to say anything that would infuriate the Alpha.Just yesterday, news had flown into his ears that the Alpha had brought in a rogue girl.How could he be this careless?Too much unnecessary indulgence will get the whole pack into trouble.He wanted to tell Alpha Ryland this, but thought better of it.Elder Silas gave a nod of agreement saying, “Eastern border is particularly of concern. We risk

Recalling the meeting held with the elders, Ryland's deep resentment swirled up. The pack's future alliances and his leadership were among the topics covered.Although all they said were reasonable and logical, one suggestion however, had made him angry.He paced his study, whispering out of frustration to himself.The elders had also reminded him of the need to crown a Luna—to make Serena his Luna, as if he was daft. That he was wasting too much time, and that he needed to act fast. If only they knew that it was the least of his problems at the moment. His desires were hot and he desperately wanted to quench it.“It is high time you settle down with someone who can help you in strengthening the pack—bear an heir for the pack,” he growled, repeating the exact words of Elder Malcolm to himself, hissing loudly in frustration.“As if I am not already aware of that!” he barked.“Oh, the rogue girl,” he cried. She was his torment.The thought of his encounter with Hazel stirred his wolf,

Still in the pool of regrets in his study, Ryland sat behind his desk, his fingers unreligiously tapping the surface with his head lowered.He wished to have a nap, but it feels like sleep itself was forbidden.Every second that passed with no information received caused his rage to get on him and the strain in his chest would not go away. He felt a mixture of frustration and longing thinking of Hazel and how terribly he treated her, and the memory clung to him like a shadow. The guards had left to find her and the earlier she was found the better for everyone.His thoughts were interrupted by a gentle knock on the door."Come in," he said sternly as he sat up straight.He was hoping it would be the guards, as he was anxiously waiting for good news—to see Hazel again.This time he promised himself that he won't let her out of his sight.Serena entered as the door squeaked open, and he sighed in frustration, and disappointment stretched on his face.Her emerald-green dress perfectly

Time had passed ever since Hazel was brought into the dungeon, and slowly, she grew used to sitting in one spot for hours. The dungeon was a complete world of its own—dark, damp, and heavy with the scent of mildew and decay. She had lost track of time down here. Days bled into nights, the only indicators of passing hours were the distant footsteps of different guards who came to drop stale bread and murky water by her feet. It was humiliating. It felt terrible that she had been reduced to this after everything she had once been.Hazel sat in her usual spot, her back pressed against the rough freezing wall as her chains rattled slightly with every minor shift of her body.Somehow, Hazel had learned to live in silence. To keep her thoughts to herself.And yet, Mira, the female bodyguard, had found a way to break that silence.The bodyguard stood just a few feet away, leaning against the iron bars with her arms crossed, watching Hazel with a contemplative expression. She wasn’t like

"I can tell that you're hiding something. Trust me, you don't want to know what I will do to you if I find out that you are actually hiding anything from me..." A deep voice growled in the dimly lit chamber. His voice was sharp, and almost impatient as he cleared his throat. "Mira!" He barked at the lady who stood before him. Mira held her breath as she blinked at him without a word. Her hands were clasped tightly behind her back as she stood rigidly, barely moving an inch. She had her eyes pinned on the man who was seated across from her at an enormous wooden desk. His name was Darius Voss, the most powerful leader of one of the deadliest trafficking rings. It was the very trafficking ring that Mira now worked for. She eyed her boss without a word, as her heart thumped in her chest. She could tell that he knew she had something to hide, but she didn't know if it was safer to say anything else than all she had already told him. She tore her eyes away from his face as she look

Bang!There was a loud crash at the far end of the dark hallway which led to the dungeon. Hazel froze in horror as heavy footsteps approached the dungeon, and she glanced at the overheard fire touch which flickered above her. Then, she shut her eyes, taking in a sharp breath. It was time! She reasoned. It was probably time for her to be taken by whoever was in charge of this dungeon. She bit down on her lower lips as the sound of the footsteps drew closer. Seconds later, Hazel was sure that she wasn’t alone. The heavy iron door groaned open, and a tall figure stepped inside. He had an intimidating presence which seemed to suck air from the room, like a predator entering the den of its prey.He was composed, with precise movements. The kind of man who never had to raise his voice to be feared.Hazel remained seated on the thin cot, her wrists shackled in front of her, her back pressed against the wall.She refused to stand. Whoever he was, she wouldn’t give him the satisfaction

The next few days passed in a blur of silence. Hazel grew uneasy and she kept to herself, refusing to talk to anyone. She needed a plan. She needed to find a way out. The thought of spending the rest of her life in this place, under Darius’s control, made her stomach churn.One evening, she heard footsteps. Not the usual ones. These were slow and deliberate. They stopped right outside her cell.Hazel looked up. Mira stood there, arms crossed, her face tight with something Hazel couldn’t quite read.“Hazel,” Mira said quietly. “I’m sorry. I didn’t want this.”Hazel’s jaw tightened. She didn’t speak right away, just stared, studying her.“What do you want?” Her voice was cold, flat.Mira shifted uncomfortably. “Darius… he’s asking about you. About your past. He’s getting interested, and that’s not a good thing.”“I don’t care what he wants,” Hazel said, standing. The chains around her wrists clinked as she moved. “I’ll get out of here. I always do.”Mira hesitated.“You can’t do this

Hazel's heart dropped to her stomach as she felt the cold touch of a knife against her neck. A whimper left her lips as she tried to struggle with Rodrigo, glancing at Ryland for help. He tried to step towards them but Rodrigo grazed her skin with the knife, making him stop. "Not on my watch," he said with a firm voice. "You think you could just come to my house and take my wife?" He asked like it was the dumbest thing. "Your wife shouldn't be tied to a chair, and don't forget she is my mate," Ryland shot back, stepping closer. The comment seemed to annoy Rodrigo and he growled. "She was trying to escape and she’s not your mate, because last I heard, you rejected her," Rodrigo brewed, his smirk increasing, happy he had been able to hit a nerve. Ryland moved towards him and Rodrigo pretended to pierced Hazel with the knife causing her to whimper. “I wouldn't move if I were you.” “Tell your men to go back now. Do that and I might let you carry your dog…" Rodrigo said, glancing at

Ryland stepped into the car saying a little prayer. His heart raced and he hoped the plan at hand was going to work perfectly. "Everything has been stationed according to your order," Caleb said and he nodded, too distraught to say a word. The car roared to life and they headed towards his enemy's pack. Hazel was the only person on his mind throughout the drive and Ryland grew desperate by the minute. The car came to a stop a mile from the pack, and they all stepped down. Some of the warriors took off their clothes before shifting into their wolf forms. They picked up the clothes glancing at Ryland before they ran into the woods, making their way to Kindred's pack. "Ready?" Caleb asked and Ryland gave a small nod. Caleb followed suit as Ryland ran towards the pack still in his human form. He got in through the far end of the pack where he was certain that very few guards would have positioned in front especially after the information he had given them. Just like he predicted, he

"You can't do this, Rodrigo. You're better than this!" Hazel yelled, hoping that deep down the man who held her when she had nightmares, that took her to picnics,was going to shine through. But it never did. Because there was never a man. "Oh, I will; you just wait. He will come for you any moment from now, and that would be the last time you'd ever see him," Rodrigo cackled, glaring at Hazel. Her cries filled the atmosphere, but it only made him laugh harder. "Please, I beg you as your wife, don't do this. I'll come with you if you want. I'd never think about him again," she pleaded, her face swollen from all the crying. Rodrigo stared at her for a moment and his eyes slowly shone with pity. He visibly gulped and Hazel studied him, hoping her words might have moved him. Hoping he would give up. Rodrigo took a few steps towards her and she adjusted backwards, trying to ignore how she shivered in fear. He placed his hand at the back of her neck, slowly massaging it. "You look s

Hazel let out a groan, trying to open her eyes. For some reason, her lids felt glued, her head heavy. She tried to lift her hand up but it seemed stuck. She fought against the binds, pausing when she realised her predicaments. "Anyone?" She struggled to say, her voice low and hoarse. Her throat felt dry and itchy and she swallowed saliva trying to remedy the feeling, but it did nothing. "Anyone! Someone please help!" She repeated, struggling to get free from the binds. Her head hurt with each move she made, but she ignored it. "Eleanor?" she yelled, forcing her eyes open."Please help me," she whispers, scanning her surroundings. She was tied to a wooden chair, her hands bruised.A tear slid down her face and Hazel bit her lips, trying her best to prevent a sob. She lifted her head, staring at the room she was left in. The lighting was dim and she could barely see anything. "Goddess, please help me," she silently prayed, taking in deep breaths. The door pulled open and Hazel sna

Rodrigo glanced at his watch, running a hand through his hair. It was almost a day and he had heard nothing from Serena. Clenching his jaw, his hand coursed through his hair again, a habit of his whenever he was frustrated. With a hard glare at his phone which was on the desk, he picked it up and dialed her number the second time, but like before, it accelerated to voicemail. Rodrigo tried repeatedly, but the results were the same at each try. An annoying growl left his lips and without giving it a thought, he crashed the phone against the wall. Nevertheless, his anger refused to be appeased as he balled his fist. With his eyes blazing red in fury, the table was seen at a blink tearing apart, and sending everything on it crashing down. Just then, Thorne made his way in and Rodrigo glared at him, his jaw still clenched so hard that it could snap. "What do you want?!" Rodrigo muttered, forcing the words out of his teeth. "Your tantrums were loud enough to summon me," was Thorne's r

"Baby?" Serena mewed like a cat, her voice loud yet shaky. She waved her hand in front of his eyes to make sure the sleeping pills were effective. Slowly she got out of bed, rushed towards her bag, and they took out the layers of napkin while rubbing her sweaty hands against her lingerie.Serena pulled out the bottle Rodrigo had given her. She pierced it, and drew out the green colored liquid, cringing at the sight of it. "This looks concerning," she whispered to herself, staring at the syringe. Ryland made a sound and she froze in fear. Slowly she turned back to find him still asleep. "Goddess help me," she muttered, walking towards him with the poison in hand. She took his hands as she placed the syringe on his shoulder. Her heart pounded and just as she was about to inject the substance into him, his eyes peeled open. "What are you doing?" Ryland's voice came sharp and unexpected, making Serena freeze in shock. Her whole body trembled as she slowly stared to see a pair of glow

Serena sat in Ryland's room in dark purple lingerie. It had been so long since he had touched her and she found herself cringing at the thought. She sat on his bed passing a hand through her hair. Even though she hated to admit it, she was very nervous and anyone could see it with how sweaty she was. Letting out a groan, Serena went through her bag, pulling out her napkin. She dabbed her face and neck with it until she felt dry enough.Shoving the used napkin in the bag she took her phone staring at the text she had sent him. "Still no reply," she muttered, becoming impatient. She looked around his room trying to snoop for anything that could help Rodrigo, but found nothing; most of his drawers were either empty or locked. She let out a frustrated sigh, falling back on the bed. "Should I call?" She asked herself as she picked up her phone, but she thought against it and dropped it. A yawn left her lips and soon she fell asleep. The sound of the door being pushed open woke Serena u

Ryland stared at the elders in front of him. They had decided to meet up after Adam's death and this was one of the few times he had been free since then. Unfortunately, Adam's death still had no murderer tied to it. Even though he did play a vital role in the pack, a part of Ryland was happy he was dead. The plus side being that he didn't even have to do it. Ryland fought a yawn, staring straight ahead. He checked his wrist watch, mentally groaning when he found out that they had barely made it through half the time. The buzzing of his phone rang through the hall, and this made the elders halt in their discussion as they turned to stare at him. Some gave him bitter glares, but swallowed their words, not brave enough to say a word. Ryland apologized to them before picking his phone from the table. He had no intention of receiving the call, but seeing the contact name, he was shocked. Aaron?With that he got up, "You can go on without me," he said to the elder beside him, walking

"What are you doing?" Rodrigo yelled, taking hold of Hazel's arm. She glared at him, yanking it out of his grip. "I need to talk to you, and I'm tired of standing," she replied back, her chest heaving. Rodrigo studied her for a while. It was clear this had nothing to do with wanting to talk to him. She took a deep breath, and glanced at his door and his heart skipped a beat as he waited for her to try to push it open. But to his surprise, Hazel turned back to face him. "What's in there that you don't want me to see?" She asked, staring at him with squinted eyes.Rodrigo's eyes glared wide as he searched his brain for what to say. For some reason, lying to her felt difficult. "You know what? I don't even care," she snapped, turning away. Rodrigo stared at Hazel's retreating figure in confusion. Something about her seemed uneasy. Her eyes looked different from before and Rodrigo felt a chill run down his spine. "It's probably the baby," Leo muttered, and Rodrigo nodded in agreemen
