Amara's POV.
I didn't know what to expect from him, he looked really angry and it scared me.
I didn't realize I'll see him here, all I came here to do was cry.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to come here." I hiccuped.
I started sobbing as my tears stained the dirt around us. I wiped off my cheeks and looked back at him. His expression showed a mixture of guilt, hurt, and anger.
But mostly confusion. He stared down at me with no emotion. I was starting to feel scared again.
"I'm so sorry." I muttered.
"You should be working like the other slaves."
"So can you give me one credible reason why you're here?" He barked.
I bit my lip. Why am I even crying? It's not like he cares anymore than usual, but still the sight of his face made my heart ache.
He grabbed my wrist and pulled me away from the wall. I let out a whimper.
"Where are we going?" I managed to squeak out.
His eyes locked on mine in an instant. I felt chills go up my spine as I stared at those piercing grey orbs that were filled with hatred.
"Back." He grumbled under his breath, not taking his eyes away from me.
I quickly nodded, afraid of getting a slap on my face.
He stopped close to the gate, turning to me again, I clutched my hands nervously.
"What is it now?" I mumbled.
"Don't talk when I'm talking to you!" He yelled, making me flinch and jump slightly, his tone changed to that of calmness, but still angry.
A tear fell from my cheek. He clenched his fists in anger. I couldn't look away from his eyes, they held such a cold and dark glare that almost sent shivers down my spine.
Then he turned away from me again, opening the gate.
"Go back and do your duties." He barked, stalking away.
"S...Sure thing, Sir." I stuttered, trying not to fall down as the fear of being hit hit me hard.
As soon as the gate swung shut, I ran to the slave quarters.
I paused when I met the head slave, she glared hard at me, slapping immediately I faced her. My back hit the door and I dropped to my knees. She walked away while muttering something about how worthless I am.
That only made my chest tighten more. I tried to steady my breathing, but nothing helped.
I crawled to a corner, where I sat on the ground and cried.
After crying, I stood up in my room, jumping on the bed. I fell asleep immediately.
*********
When the sun set, I stood up groggily, running out. I didn't want to get punished today.
I went to the head slave to get a list of what I had to do today.
When I got the list, I gasped,if was freaking long, I looked at the list of other slaves and I was surprised to see how short it was.
I looked at the long list of duties I had again,
they were just things I had to do. There wasn't much, most of them were light stuff like washing or sweeping and cooking or cleaning, I knew it was his doing.
I started working in the kitchen after dinner.
I finished everything pretty fast and they gave me the night shift, which was the worst because I was alone with so much work to do.
The next morning, the same thing happened.
Only this time they assigned me the chores by rank, but it wasn't too hard. All I had to do was wash the floors, sweep and carry loads.
All day, they kept giving me the night shift, so I would stay there until midnight.
It was a constant circle of suffering, each new night cycle was worse than the last, I don't think it was possible for me to get used to it.
I started working as a cook. I was the only slave who cooked, everyone else worked in the laundry or cleaned the houses.
*********
It was week and it seemed like everything reduced, I sighed in relief, he didn't make the head slave give me countless jobs to do.
I thought it was over, I would work less, but I wasn't ready for what was coming.
I was assigned to work in his room, always cleaning it.
I loved cleaning it, I could see him sometimes as the mate pull kept dragging me to him, I missed him even when I shouldn't.
Though I wasn't sure that was the same way he felt.
I knocked on his door as usual today. I paused when I heard moaning sounds coming from his room.
I swallowed hard before slowly entering.
He was fucking someone, I gasped I couldn't believe my eyes, he was facing me, his eyes staring hard at me, while pounding the woman hard.
I backed away shaking uncontrollably, the smell of lust and sex was filling the room, my whole body shivered. I was in shock. I couldn't believe my mate was fucking someone else for me to see.
My heart clenched tightly, the wave of pain hit me full force. The tears started falling once again.
I shook my head furiously, my legs trembled under me as I kept watching, the smirk on his face hurt me so much.
I felt my eyes burning, my tears continued to stream down my face, as I watched him pound into her.
Her moans and his grunts filled the room. I wanted to go and drag her away from him, but I knew how bad it'd turn out for me if I did it.
She kept moaning, "Yes alpha, harder."
He spanked her ass, and I kept watching them, my lips quivered.
My heart clenched tighter, this felt more worse than rejection, I wished he would reject me and I didn't have to watch him do this.
Suddenly, she threw her head back, screaming loudly. I felt myself shake even more, she screamed even louder.
He growled deeply at her, then slammed her against the wall, thrusting inside her again and again.
Tears continuously streamed down my face, the pain was unbearable.
My heart clenched painfully, it felt like I was being stabbed all over again. Every single movement he made was painful, every sound he made made me cry even more.
His thrusts grew harsher, faster, he was grunting loudly. He didn't stop till his cock was completely buried inside her. She moaned loud as well and I could barely hear her words.
"I... Uh, it's so good..."
He took hold of her hips and pulled her closer to him, his thrusts getting faster, his moans turning hoarse as he began cumming deep inside her.
I bit my lip so hard that I drew blood , my entire body was trembling, I could hardly breathe.
My chest hurt like hell as I witnessed his actions, it was killing me.
Dylan’s Pov“Are you ready?” I asked Amara for the tenth time already. “Will be done in a minute honey,” She replied, as she continued her makeup. “Why didn't you just let the maids do this for you?” I whined.“Because I wanted something mild” She grinned over at me before adding “Besides, Carlos was disturbing me.” I rolled my eyes at her because I knew she was exaggerating. “Daddy” Little Carlos called out running into my arms. I lifted him and swung him around once until he started to squeal with glee. It was our favorite routine. “Is mommy done yet?” He inquired as I set him down.“Not yet, my boy,” I replied smiling at him. “But, everyone is waiting for us” he whined. “How old are you again?” Amara asked him. She never seemed to get tired of his antics.“Two!”He declared.“Oh, you're so grown up. And mummy is done we can go down now.” She said as she stood up to kiss Carlos on the cheek. I picked Carlos up again and kissed Amara on her forehead. “You look beautiful”
Dylan’s Pov “She won't tell you herself but I can,” Anita the witch seer muttered entering the torture room.Elana's eyes widened when she saw her. “ I should have killed you when I had the chance,” She said.“Don't flatter yourself, Elana. You couldn't kill me.” Anita replied.“You are lucky I'm in chains and you absorbed my powers, you would have regretted helping them,” Elana retorted.I was surprised at how confident she was even when she at the verge of dying. Anita walked up to her and placed her hands on her head. Elana kept struggling but seer paid no attention to her. After a minute, Seer removed her hands and smiled mockingly.“You know what, Elana? That was more easier than expected,” She mu
Elana's Pov“We meet again, Elana.” Anita the daughter of the witch queen said appearing before me.She smiled warmly at me but I could see malice behind her eyes.She stepped forward and stared into my eyes with intensity. I could see the hatred and resentment burning behind her amber brown eyes.“You shouldn’t be here.” I said softly.“Didn’t you learn the last time?” I taunted.She smiled at me before disappearing before I could a react.“The great, Elana” Dylan’s growled behind me. I turned to find Dylan standing behind me. His expression was blank and unreadable.“What… are you doing here?” I stuttered trying to hide my fear. You're a witch, Elana.” He sneered. I saw anger flashing in his eyes.“No, I'm not,” I denied flatly.“Then what was that utterance about?” he asked referring to my conversation with Anita, confirming that I wasn't hallucinating.“I perceived an unfamiliar scent so I only challenged the person” I replied,hoping he buys it because i didnt like that look o
Elana’s Pov I lay on my bed staring at the ceiling and thinking about my life. How long was I going to wait for Dylan to fall in love with me? I was getting older and there was still no sign of affection from him. Will I grow old and die while waiting for him to love me? I had rejected two good mates the moon goddess blessed me with just for him yet he won't love me.I have waited for so long to not influence his feelings for me with my powers but I have waited for a long time. It's about time I make him love me.“Hahaha” I let out an evil laugh.“I'm a witch after all,” I told myself. “Why should I beg for love when I can make him fall in love with me,” I said, smiling wickedly. I jumped off my bed excitedly. I was going to cook up something in the cave for him. “A nice little drink.” I thought.I should take advantage of the fresh air and walk down there instead of flying. I wore my boots and headed downstairs. As I descended the stairs, I met Princess, and for the f
Dylan’s Pov“We are not wasting any more time. I will mind link the others to meet us at the barrier.” I stated firmly. He nodded and gave me an assuring smile. I quickly mind-linked Aidan telling him to meet me at the barrier with others. As soon as I finished I ran towards the barriers the sound of cracking bones as I shifted calming me down. I picked up a motion beside me and turned to see that Stephen has shifted too. On getting to the barrier, Aidan, Barton, Cecelia, and Jeffery were already there.We quickly changed back to human form but didn't say anything immediately.“What's going on Dylan? You sounded really pissed.” Aidan asked worry written all over his face just like the others. “I'm more than pissed, Aidan. I have been living with my enemy,” I snapped before letting out a deep breath and trying to calm myself down.“What do you mean living with your enemy? Barton asked.“Remember the day Amara was kidnapped? I asked them and they nodded.“How we knew black magi
Dylan’s Pov It's been two days since the mating ceremony and I'm glad it was a success.I had a meeting with Stephen today so I decided to go down for breakfast.Surprisingly the house was still quiet only the maids were awake. “Good morning Alpha” They greeted. “Good morning,” I replied. “Are you all doing okay today?” They nodded their heads vigorously.“Yes Alpha, we are all very well,” one of them said as she dried her hands on a towel. “Good good,” I smiled before taking my seat in the dining. Stephen should be here in five minutes I thought, waiting for him to arrive. I took a sip of coffee before taking out a piece of toast and started to eat.As if on cue there was a knock on the door and a voice saying, “He is in the dining room,” “Good morning, Alpha” Stephen greeted.“Good morning, Stephen” I replied, motioning for him to sit down.“How have you been? You look tired,” he commented as he took his seat beside me.“I am. I did not sleep well last nigh
