VICTORIABefore I knew it, he threw a punch at me, and, unfortunately, the punch landed on my nose. "Arrghhhh," I groaned as I felt immense pain.Instead of showing concern, he just ignored me and scoffed. "Let's do this," I said, frowning, my face now becoming serious as he threw a punch at me. His hands alone were so heavy that he might overpower me, but I breathed in and twisted his arm like he said. "Nice one. Let's do this three more times," Brendon said as I sighed. After we did it about three times, I was already exhausted, but I was interested in learning more."Anytime you twist an enemy's arm the way I just taught you, don't just wait until he strikes back. Release a punch or hit his arm to save yourself some time," Brendon explained more, but I didn't understand what he just said. He turned to the training ground and called one of his warriors. "Raymond, come here for a minute," Alpha Brendon called, and he rushed here. "I need to show her something," he said as he thre
"Surprised? But are you sure she's safe now, Brendon?" He muttered as he laughed like a devil, trying to get the upper hand.Ifelt a cold rage build inside me, and I turned back to face him. For the first time in my life, I felt nervous. I could feel my wolf stirring, demanding to be let out to attack Arturo. How the hell did he find out she's my Luna? I didn't tell anyone about this. Even John didn't know until today."You have no idea what you've just done, you just made a grave mistake, Arturo. You don't want to mess with me or my Luna. I'll make sure you regret this," I said, my eyes blazing with fury, my teeth grounding hard against each other. My hands clenched into fists at my sides, and my eyes burned with fury. I took a step closer to him, towering over him as I continued."You touch a single hair on her head, and I'll make you regret it for the rest of your miserable life."Arturo chuckled, unfazed by my threats. "Oh, Alpha," he said, leaning back in his seat. "You alwa
BRENDON Immediately after I left, an image of what I did flashed in my head. Back in the villa, when I stood up to confront him, I stealthily planted an audio recorder beneath the table where Arturo was sitting. I couldn't stand by and watch him make fun of me. I listened to the recording through the airpod in my ear, and found out where Arturo's brother was going. I signaled my men, Kale, Zik, Harris, and Bena, about the development.When we got in the car, we tracked him down and caught him. "Get out! How dare you! You don't know who I am!" he roared in anger, struggling hard as we threw him into the trunk. "Take him to the basement. You know where. Then wait for me," I ordered the boys."But, alpha, how will you get home? You can't just walk, and it's dangerous," Kale said, sounding concerned. I smiled and shook my head. "Don't worry. Beta John will come and pick me up. You just make sure he doesn't escape, and be careful. You know how sneaky he is." Kale nodded his head, g
VICTORIALike, really? This was my first time torturing someone like me. It was uncalled for. Deep down, I don't like it. I know he deserves more than death, but jeez, I don't have the courage for it. I hesitated when he asked me to stab his leg, My hands trembling as I held the knife, but I brushed aside the thought that it was evil and did it.Suddenly, John appeared out of nowhere. I never expected him to be here, and he looks so excited."John, show him the perfect gift I prepared for him," Alpha Brendon said with a cold smile. I was curious what the surprise gift was.I watched as John connected the laptop and opened a video of a lady and a child. Three soldiers pointed guns at them, and they froze in fear.And behold, the lady was someone I never expected to see. My heart sank when I saw her face clearly; it was my sister Josephine. How could this be? Josephine, my sister? Oh no! This isn't what I bargained for. How is this possible? My sister Josephine is now between life an
"No!" Hardin and I screamed together as Brendon looked at my anxious face. He was stunned by what he had just heard, but I ignored him. Even Hardin had not expected me to scream with him. He looked at me from head to toe with a confused expression."Please don't touch them. I will tell you where all your documents are, but first tell your hungry, bloodthirsty men to take their guns away from their faces," Hardin pleaded. Brendon scoffed and signaled to John, who then informed his men to drop their guns."See? Now speak, and don't dare make a smart move," Brendon ordered in a cold voice as he cleared his throat. I gasped."Code 1256 is in Arturo's safe. Check there to see all your documents that are kept there. Now, can you tell your men to get the hell out of my house?" He said angrily."How can I be so sure of that, Hardin? I have trust issues," Brendon said."I'm fucking serious!!!" Hardin yelled loudly as Brendon smiled and signaled to his favorite and smart beta, John, to go get i
We have been waiting for John for almost three hours now, but he still hasn't arrived. Time was passing by quickly, and I was becoming increasingly nervous. I am still in shock and have not been able to recover yet.I noticed Brendon staring at me, and it seemed like he had been doing so for a while. His gaze was intense, and it made me uncomfortable. I know lots of questions are running through his mind as to how I knew Hardin's wife, Josephine, and his kid. But I was not sure whether now was the time to say anything cos of how tense the atmosphere seemed.So, I looked away because looking directly into his eyes only made me more anxious.As I watched the video of my sister crying on her knees, I felt a deep pang of sadness hit me. Her husband was also watching her on the laptop, and it was clear that he cared for her deeply. However, I couldn't help but wonder what kind of partner he was to put her through such hardship.I always wished for my sister, Josephine, to lead a life
As he turned to face me, I rose from my seat, consumed by anger. "Victoria, your capacity for emotional expression is what I detest," he remarked. I retorted, my fury palpable, "Do you wish to transform me into a monster like yourself?" He casually resumed his meal, smirking in response. "Monster, you say? Why employ such a term? Are your nerves beginning to fray?" I slowly sank back into my chair, bewildered by my sudden outburst. "Victoria, are you well? Remember, you were addressing Brendon, not some random individual," Rina inquired anxiously. I closed my eyes and sighed, realizing my vexation was due to Josephine's fabricated soulmate. Although Josephine had surpassed the age of discovering her mate, I remained optimistic that she would eventually find him. I merely hoped he would not prove to be ineffectual. "I apologize for my outburst. I did not intend to label you a monster. I was simply frustrated with everything," I pleaded, averting my gaze as he held a glass of wine.
BRENDONI was engaged in a delightful conversation with Victoria until beta John interrupted our meal, beckoning me to follow him to my office. As I trailed behind him, I couldn't help but wonder what he wanted to show me."So, what is it that you need me to see?" I inquired as we arrived at my office.John handed me his phone, stating, "I would have shown you this in the dining room, but it's better if we discuss this in private." As I watched the video, I was perplexed by the voice's cold and calculated tone. "Brendon, you're nothing but a bastard! I don't have much to say to you, but you made a grave mistake keeping me alive. I just found out that your Luna is living with you. How amusing it will be! Be warned, prepare for war!" The voice threatened.I was confounded by the video's bluntness and the voice's artificial quality. "Who would dare to threaten me with such a cheap trick?" I scoffed, tossing the phone aside. John picked it up, visibly upset."Alpha, Victoria's life is in
