Five years later………. I stayed as still as a log and covered in mud. I slowed down my heart rate carefully listening to him. I heard everything,the flapping of a bat's wings far away, the snapping of a branch. I heard it all perfectly. It's been five years since I shifted.I had no wolf but had all the abilities that came with being a wolf,my strength could not compare to a strong wolf but was like that of an average wolf,an Omega perhaps. But I couldn't hear him nor could I smell him. I slowly moved to get a better view of my surroundings but cut my cheek in the process. "Shit",I cursed under my breath. Rubbing the area with mud before he could get the scent of my blood. I heard the snapping of a twig and searched through the darkness.I breathed a sigh of relief when I noticed it was only a rabbit. I continued to look around. It was going to be midnight soon and if he hadn't found me by then then I would win ,I slowly smirked at that thought it was high time I showed that boy Malk
I looked up at the blanket of stars that stretched to infinity, the occasional barking of faraway dogs and the constant squeaking of my bicycle broke the silence of the night.There has been news of people going missing, others found mutilated and torn to pieces, but I'm not scared to be out at midnight, I'm honestly not scared of dying.I peddled through the streets on my beat down bicycle that once belonged to my brother with the little strength I had left, just a little more and I'll be out of here. My brother left the moment he could. The only thing he left was a letter about how he resented our father.Our family was the dysfunctional one but the hope that there was something more out there kept me together, kept me from falling apart and giving into my demons.I reached out driveway and my dad's sedan was there, I don't hate my father I really don't even though he now spends his days drinking and spending time with cheap prostitutes ,he was not always like this ,I don't mind be
"Wake up!", A stun voice yells waking me from my sleep,a woman I've never seen in a maid's uniform ,staring down at me with a girl my age next to her,her hair is tried in a tight crisp bun and she looks at me like I owe her money,I look around and notice I'm in some type of dormitory with a dozen beds with trunks in front of them."Where am I?, where is my father?"."From today onwards you belong to the Alpha, you'll have to work to pay the money your father owes, get up and follow me! ",She says walking away, I get up to follow behind her and the girl. After walking for some time and making a couple of turns we finally reach the bathrooms. There are rolls of tubs and showers in an area with blow dryers and hair straighteners.There are three more maids waiting there, one with a bucket and the other with a hose. The lady nods at the one with nothing and she begins stripping me down.I try to struggle but I'm unmatched for this woman's strength. What is an Amazonian? after stripping me
"Leave us !",the husky voice says,they both walk out leaving me there standing,I raise my eyes and take a look at him,this is the man that told them to take me. When I lay my eyes on him I can't help but gasp.Lustrous dark brown hair, his eyebrows sloped downwards into a serious expression, his lips drawn into a hard line across his face, a prominent jaw curved gracefully and the strength of his neck showed in the twining cords of muscle that shaped his abdomen, strong arms and a firm chest. An Adonis among the other men I've seen so far in this place that pale in comparison.The tapping of his lean slender fingers on the table drew me back to his face,he had the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen, golden like honey with gray flecks,the intensity of his eyes almost made my knees give out.I'm not one to swoon over a handsome man and I'm usually indifferent but I know the blush that accompanied my face was a dead giveaway about how flustered I was in his presence."Had enough?",he say
I wake up in a cold sweat on a hospital bed,the hand that almost got ripped to shreds bandaged . "It's good to see that you're awake",a voice says." You must be Eden, I'm glad to see you're awake you lost a lot of blood,how do you feel?",he warmly asks." Tired and my arm hurts like a m*therf**ker ",I whisper." It's normal,she got her claws in really deep but somehow managed to miss your artery not causing you to bleed to death,you took the dose of wolfsbane pretty well,it usually knocks humans out for three to four days but you were only out for one",he says." Look at my bad manners I'm Doctor Finlay but you can just call me Mark", he says taking my IV out. I don't know what it is about him , maybe it's the warmth in his eyes and all his bright smile but he reminded me so much of Tyrone.He prescribed me a small dose of wolfsbane to help with the pain only to take at night and told me how to take care of the wound and also some antibiotics for the wound inside my cheek from the sla
Syrus' POVI listened to Collin's report on what the head servant did to Eden.I know I said I don't care about her but recalling how she looked in that tight fitted uniform had me barely keeping myself together,I wanted to claim her right there and then on my table.I'm losing it,not only is she a human but her father threatens the existence of my species.The goddess must be f**king with me for giving me a human as a mate."You know you can't keep ignoring her right?", Collin says." Shut up, I'm not in the mood, it's normal to be sexually attracted to my fated mate , after all it helps with the conceiving of an heir, but a human? is the goddess f**king with me ?, I can never be with a lesser being much less the cause of all my problems"" I just hope you know what you're doing"," I'm the greatest Alpha there has ever been,of course I know what I'm doing",I say and take a drink from my whiskey, that's right it's just the pheromones."Has he said anything?", I ask, changing the topic
After dinner Jill and I waited for the wolves to finish their baths so we could have ours. "Do you think of ever leaving this place?" I ask as we sweep the kitchen." Why would I want to leave,I have everything I need here ,out there I have nothing"." Me too but we can be each other",I don't know why I said that, that's what Tyrone used to tell me always."It's useless the Alpha will find us anyway and there will be horrible consequences,they might even feed you to the rogues in the dungeons".Rogues?like the ones my dad spoke of in the stories? I wonder how he's doing right now, where they are holding him. I don't want to care but I just can't help it."Dungeons? there are dungeons here that have rogues in them?"." Yes the servants used to take me there to scare me into obedience, they'd lock me up for days next to a cell of a rogue that wanted nothing but to break through to get to me and eat me",she says, she says it as if it is a normal thing and just continued on with her work.
The whole room becomes quiet, nobody speaks and they seem to be too shocked to speak."F**k!", Syrus cusses .And Yedira begins laughing "wait until father hears this ,your mate is the daughter of the man that made the formula for the drug that is turning wolves rogue, that turned your love into one as well,now this is what I call entertainment",she says downing the her glass ,Syrus walks up from his sit and grabs the bottle from her and drinks everything to the last drop."What's going on, what do you mean I'm his mate,mate like soulmates?",I ask." Yes, something like that",Mark says,and I can't explain the joy I feel.I look towards Syrus looking for something,joy , reassurance, anything at all, but all he does is glare at me,I see anger and disappointment.What do they mean about drugs , whose love has gone rogue that she spoke of. I have all these questions that need answers."You can't possibly be thinking of Deborah? You know that she has a mate ,she left you for him . what ? No
