Anastasia's pov
I woke up feeling drowsy, my eyes groggily open as warm sun sunlight seeped into them.I squinted for a bit, trying to adjust to the bright light before getting up, feeling my whole body ache. Everywhere hurt so badly that I could barely even stand."Why does my head hurt..." I groaned to myself, rubbing my head, hoping the numbering pain would go away."Good morning Luna Anastasia." I heard two people say simultaneously and was stunned when I raised my head to see two maids standing in front of me with bright smiles on their faces.For a minute, I was so confused that I had forgotten about the aching pain in my head. I just sat there, one hand holding my head as I looked at them in shock."G- good morning." Did they just call me Luna."I'm Estella and this is my twin sister, Jessica and we were given the honor of serving you." They both bowed and I turned flustered when I understood the situation."Please rise. That's okay." I say awkwardly and attempted to stand when Estella suddenly pulled out a scroll from which she started reading."We would like an audience from you Luna Anastasia. Here are your schedules for today. After breakfast you are required to head to the royal seamstress shop later today to get your measurements taken for the gown meant for your Naming ceremony. After that, you'd be taken to the beauty parlor for your makeover and you'll be provided a dermatologist, specially requested by the Lycans who would take care of you till you're healed."The last statement made me wonder if the Lycans had specially requested it for a reason only we knew from our encounter yesterday. It was possibly because of the scars they had seen.After Estella had read out my schedule for the day, she and Jessica helped me into the bathroom and washed me up. They parted me dry with a towel and arranged for me to be dressed into the loviest silky gown with pearls and a lace around the waist to accentuate my small hips. As I sat down before the mirror while they applied makeup, I would have pinched myself If I wasn't well aware that this wasn't a dream.This was reality. I was been treated like a queen. It's almost like my very perfect life coming to reality, but the unfortunate part of this reality was that I was only here for one purpose and after I had done It, I would leave. While I was here, I shouldn't even require to ask for love or affection.Basically, I would be living here like a breeding animal. To be taken care of and well fed. Even the thought of bearing a child and having to leave him or her in the hands of the Lycan and just live scared me but I guess this was much more better than having to stay at home with those jerks who would use me over and over again.Estella rolls in the food trolley next and I'm once again greeted with an array of so many food I didn't even know where to start from. She starts by cutting the steak and I start with the fruits, nibbling on the grapes and berries, waiting for her."Luna Anastasia, not to sound intrusive, but how was it last night." Jessica had a strange glint in her eyes as she asked. "Most of us know about what happened you and Draven but as your personal maids, shouldn't we know the details?"Estella shoved her with the side of her arm and glared at her before turning to me with an apologetic look."I apologize on my sister's behalf, Luna Anastasia. Sometimes, she gets too curious about things which do not concern her."Jessica rubbed her aching sides, pouting."What? The maids said they saw His highness carrying her back to her room yesterday. It's obvious something occured between them."Hearing Draven had carried me back to my room himself, I felt my face grow hot for some reason and I immediately stuffed my mouth with a forkful of steak to hide the blush on my face, but it failed to go unseen by the twins."So something did happen?! Oh please tell us, Luna. We'd love to know.""N- nothin happened." I almost choked as I looked down coyly, avoiding their eyes. I couldn't tell them what they wanted to here, moreso, we didn't do what they thought we might have. Would I tell them I was so weak that he had to use his fingers to deflower me for fear of killing me? No.Jessica was disappointed and Estella was apologetic but I just focused on finishing my food. During the entire time I ate, Jessica kept me company with tales about the pack and so many other stories that had me laughing even. Although she was unhinged and said whatever came to mind, I enjoyed her company. I actually liked the fact she was treating me like a king time friend of hers.Estella seemed to be the calm one, the type of sister that had to mother the other. She chipped into our conversation once in a while but her main focus was cleaning the room thoroughly.I wondered If I was going to be eating in my room on a norms. It would feel lonely without them.By the time she was done, I was done eating and ready to go for my measurements. They helped me into my shoes, retouched my makeup and led me out the door.I was trying to balance on the shoes with heels, having not been used to heels and was barefooted most of the time, but the dress was quite long and it was getting hard to see as I walked along.I had been so preoccupied trying not to fall on my face while walking that I suddenly bumped into someone right in front of me. I gasped the moment a cup crashed on th floor, hot scalding tea kissing my arm.Reflexively, I move back, wincing, but before I could even recover, raising my head to see who I had bumped into, someone flapped me hard across the face and I find myself falling back onto the floor.In an absolute state of shock and a state of pain , I tried to understand the fatal scenario which just played out as lizzy and Estella kept on apologizing on MY behalf. It felt like a lightning spear came brushing down my face, with immense speed. I could feel the handprints while just feeling through. It felt like a very annoying bee sting. I wished to ask questions and throw exclamatory and harsh claims on the bastard but those burdens couldn't get through my mouth which was shut. I was perplexed and disturbed, everything around me felt confusing. Nothing to say or add to that embarrassing moment as my heart kept racing and minor surges of anger inflict me like a cancer. She didn't look like she cared if the hot tea scalded me, I knew this from the hatred in her eyes as she was starring at me . I didn't know of her name but I knew that now wasn't the right time to ask for it because the situation was extremely tense. Now the thing that blew me off was the fact that after I got
The Environment couldn't get more tense as discussions grew profusely at the meeting hall. Not one person took an unserious expression during the meeting. The hall took an uncanny and unprecedented design that wasn't like any ordinary meeting hall. Everyone including some particular Alphas and Lunas sat down in the most arranged and sequenced manner in the meeting making the hall somewhat as compactible as a fancy ballroom. The most important personnels in the room being the likes of the Lyan Devil Triplets; Damien, Draven and Darius filled the hall with winds of discussion solely on the strategy planning for the Forbiddens. The triplets really knew how to take up authority and responsibilities to take on the role of commendable leadership. Swiveling thoughts from the triplets concerning the discussion, Damien surveiled the entire scene playing out in the room. He was more cautious in the terms of what to say about the Luna ceremony than any one in the room while he moved his eyes ra
Anyone could literally cut through the air with a knife as Violet and her group of concubines approached the scene with a series of intensified shouting out questions of why a weak person like Anastatia should be in the harem of concubines. Things couldn't get more tense as it already was. The place was filled with curious, frustrated and confused concubines with their assumed " queen " Violet ready to angrily give reasons why someone like Anastatia should leave the harem and how she herself will fight her out. " She's not even a strong one like the rest of us, she just like the others, weak and pathetic" Violet continued starting to pitch up her voice " I'll defeat her and show her the place she rightly belongs, I'll show her that I'm the alpha around here ". Her fellow "associates", seemed to love Violet's charisma towards taking down anastatia and they low-key hooted for affirmation." I can't believe we have a weak one amongst us at the harem. " Elena, one of Violet's concubines
Anastasia's pov I felt all the blood in my face drain as I read the contract papers over and over again in my head until I grew sick with fear and disgust. The words seemed to blur before my eyes as my mind struggled to process the magnitude of what I had just read, my thoughts racing. "No." Mustering all the willpower in me, I faced the Alpha and his family as I said, not even flinching under their hard, cold glares. "I'm not doing It.""You don't have a choice in this. You never did." The Alpha's face was full of scorn and wrinkled lines as he frowned at me, ignoring the look of horror on my face. "The arrangements have already been made in prior to the agreement."I could feel my heart pounding hard against my chest, my vision glazed over and the papers dropped from my hands. I had been sold to the Lycan Triplets as their breeder. Not even a wife or a concubine, a breeder. The Lycan Triplets owned and ruled over the largest pack in the werewolf territory. They were known to be
Anastasia's pov As the car drove past the large golden gates leading into the Lycan Triplets' main mansion, I felt the butterflies in my stomach turn to angry moths, flapping and struggling to tear through and escape their confined space. I closed my eyes and steadied my breathing, hiding my shaky fingers under the small bag I had with me which contained my things.Not that I had much to pack anyway. I had a few change of clothes and my mother's things; the ruined journal, some of our pictures, which fortunately was still intact, a locket with our picture inside and an amulet with an emerald green jewel which I always wore, not only because It matched my eyes but because It was the last gift she had given me before she died and I promised myself never to take It off. It was the most expensive thing I owned and many times, my step family had tried to forcefully take It to sell but I didn't let them, even If it meant getting hit. I protected the amulet with my life and will continue
Anastasia's pov I did hear from my step sisters that the Lycan's Triplets' were a feast to look upon as they were the most beautiful creatures to walk the land of earth, but I had thought they were over exaggeratingI couldn't believe men who were cruel and evil could look any more than horrendous pigs and ugly, scarred monsters, but standing before then now, my whole being froze at the sight of them, sitting behind their large table, their eyes, piercing and cold staring right into my soul. Damien.He was the eldest of the Triplets'. He was a large figure exuding a dominant aura that filled the room and weaneed my knees from where I stood. His jet-black hair cascaded down his broad shoulders, framing piercing cold blue eyes that seemed to hold a thousand memories and souls of his past victims. His chiseled features were accentuated by a prominent deep scar that ran across his cheeks. Draven was the middle brother. He possessed an air of enigmatic allure. He had this sexy, play bo
Damien's pov I looked at the girl, noticing how her eyes grew wide in shock. We both locked eyes and I could instantly tell she was scared. I wasn't surprised. It's been a normal way of life since our existence; feeding off the fear of people in our presence. We thrived on them and Anastasia wasn't any different. She looked like any other she wolf we've encountered - nothing special there. I've seen a lot more beautiful women. But green eyes. Now that was something to catch my attention. Only witches had green eyes and they were rare. I had never seen a she wolf with green eyes before and certainly not an emerald green shade that looked like jewels- like the pendant of the jewel around her neck. That amulet looked so familiar - It exuded this aura around her that made It impossible for me to even access her inner and thoughts. I doubted she knew the power of the amulet around her neck. Her weakness disgusted me and got me furious. As the eldest, I dreamed of having an heir from
Anastasia's pov I was shaken in tears and shame from what I had just gone through, but Dante was towering over me now as my teary eyes read through the contents of the contract, and I knew he had only come to my room for one purpose and It as to get the contract signed We're th Lycan Triplets so repulsed by my body that they couldn't even bear to stand the sight of me anymore? I'm disbelief, I read the contract;Contract for Anastasia ElyonThis agreement is between Anastasia Elyon (Contractee) and the Lycan Triplets, Damien, Draven, and Darius Valerian (Contractors).The Contractee, • Agrees to be bound by the terms of this Contract for a period of one year, commencing upon the signing of this agreement.• Shall provide intimacy to the Contractors during the contract period.
