As a small town appears in the distance, my attention is abruptly turned to my right by a sudden noise. The sharp and piercing sound, cuts through the calm atmosphere like a knife. Despite my best efforts, I struggle to identify the source of the sound, my ears straining to catch any clue that will help unravel the mystery. Was it a branch snapping under the weight of an animal? Or perhaps the rustling of leaves caused by a gust of wind?
The uncertainty gnaws at me, filling me with a sense of unease. Shaking off the distraction, I continue my journey towards the town, determined to reach my destination. But just as I begin to regain my focus, a loud noise to my right startles me once again.This time, it was unmistakable – a deep growl that echoes through the air, sending shivers down my spine. My heart races, pounding against my chest like a wild animal desperate to escape its cage.With a mix of curiosity and dread, I turn to face the source of the disturbance, my eyes widening in terror. Emerging from the dense brush is an imposing figure, an alpha in every sense of the word. His muscular wolf frame oozes out power, his gray hair and scars that adorn his face and body, are a testament to the battles he has fought and won.His presence alone fills me with a primal fear, as if I have stumbled upon a predator in the midst of its hunt. As he closes the distance between us, each step knowing and resolute, my body freezes in place. The fear that courses through my veins paralyzes me, making me incapable of rational thought. I can feel the tremors coursing through my limbs, my muscles betraying me in the face of this scary person.Overwhelmed by fear, I turn around and run as fast as I can, as my body is shaking from the terror that grips me. But the alpha jumps out in front of me as his eyes lock onto mine, his gaze piercing through my soul, as if he can sense my vulnerability. Just as he begins to shift into his human form. His lips curl into a menacing grin, that sends a chill down my spine as he says, “Well, well, what do we have here?”The tone of his voice is laced with a hint of danger, and I can’t help but feel a shiver run down my spine. As I slowly back away, my heart is racing with fear, I remember my mother's words of wisdom: always run and hide if you encounter an alpha. With that in mind, I quickly turn and begin to run in the opposite direction as fast as I can. But my efforts are in vain, as the alpha catches up to me and spins me around to face him, as his snarl echoes in my ears.As fear consumes me, my body trembles uncontrollably, and I find myself desperately pleading, “Please, let me go!” with tears and snot running down my face as my heart pounds relentlessly in my chest. The anticipation of his response intensifying my anxiety.The air grows heavy with tension as I await his decision. His cold and calculating eyes, bore into mine, as if searching for any hint of deceit. Time seems to stand still, the silence between us suffocating. Finally, after what feels like an eternity, he says, his voice dripping with malice. “Oh, little omega, you're mine now,” he sneers, his words laced with a sadistic amusement.My heart sinks, as the weight of his words crush my spirit. I had hoped that my plea would touch some hidden empathy within him, but it seems I am nothing more than a pawn in his twisted game. The realization that escape is unlikely settles upon me like a suffocating fog.His laughter echoes through the empty forest, sending shivers down my spine.“You think the safety of the town would save you? How naïve,” he taunts, his voice dripping with disdain. With a sinister laugh, he sneers, “Oh, no, little omega. You are coming with me.”A wave of fear washes over me as I fully comprehend the severity of my predicament. I find myself trapped, and completely vulnerable to the whims of this heartless and merciless alpha. Despite my desperate attempts to break free from his unyielding grasp, he callously tightens his grip on my wrist, causing an excruciating surge of pain to shoot through my arm. My anguished cries for help fall on deaf ears as he effortlessly lifts me onto his broad shoulders.With every ounce of strength I have left, I pound and kick at him, desperately trying to escape before he delivers a blow that leaves me disoriented. However, his powerful muscles seemed impervious to my struggles, effortlessly as he carries me deeper into the thick underbrush, leaving me completely at his mercy.As we near the vicinity, a large mansion suddenly appears, seemingly coming out from thin air. It is situated in the midst of a dense forest, surrounded by towering trees that add to its unsettling atmosphere. The house is completely covered in thick vines, which cascade over its entire structure, creating a bleak and neglected look, as though it has been left untouched for countless years.As we near the house, my captor abruptly veers to the left, leading me towards a set of doors embedded in the ground. Without warning, he forcefully swings the doors open, throwing me downward into the darkness below. The impact is jarring, making me cry out in pain.Before I can fully comprehend what has happened, he swiftly slams the doors shut, leaving me utterly alone in the pitch-black darkness. After taking a moment to catch my breath and assess any potential injuries, I begin to crawl along the ground, while shivering for the cold dampness. While using my hands to feel for any obstacles or walls.Eventually, my fingers brush against a solid surface, which I assume to be a wall. “Hello, is anyone here?” I whisper, fearing Sir will hear me.When no one answers me, I slowly stand up and begin to walk; keeping my hand in contact with the wall to guide me hopefully towards the doors that I had been thrown through. Despite the darkness and confusion, I remain focused and determined to find my way out of this situation.As my foot touches what I believe to be the steps, the doors abruptly open; the alpha emerges, carrying a flickering light and some mysterious metallic objects. The sight sends a jolt of terror coursing through my veins, causing me to let out a piercing scream that echoes through the empty corridor. My instinctual response is to retreat as far as I can, desperately seeking safety as my body trembles uncontrollably.The alpha's commanding presence seems to fill the entire space, towering over me. Every fiber of my being screams at me to run, to escape from this looming figure that pushes off power and dominance. But something deep within me tells me that fleeing will only worsen my fate.“Welcome to your new home, little omega. From now on, you will address me as Sir,” the alpha said.Trembling with fear, from the man before me, “What do you intend to do with me, Sir?” My voice is barely above a whisper. I wait anxiously for his response, unsure of what fate awaits me.Sir's malicious laughter fills the air as he utters the words, “Oh, little omega, let the fun begin.”Suddenly, he materializes in front of me, chains firmly gripped in his hands, and forcefully presses me against the wall. The impact is so intense, I can feel the chilling touch of the metal on both sides of my head, causing me to scream. In my desperate attempt to break free from the wall, he seizes one of my arms and secures it with a chain.“Please let me go, I won't tell anyone.” I cry as I'm choking on my tears. All he does is laugh sadistically; as he restrains my other arm with the second chain, firmly anchoring it against the wall.As I watch him slowly back away; a wave of terror washes over me as I fight with every fiber of my being, struggling to break free from the unyielding chains that hold me captive. My face is streaked with tears and sweat as I push myself to the brink of exhaustion, feeling the effects of god knows how many days without food or water, taking their toll on my already weakened body.Just as I am on the verge of collapsing from sheer exhaustion, Sir menacingly advances towards me once more, with a wicked grin etched across his face. With a chilling glint in his eyes, he brandishes a gleaming knife, pressing it against my trembling chest. My heart pounds in terror as I let out a piercing cry, my voice echoing through the room.As he mercilessly slices through my garments as if they were mere threads, leaving me exposed and vulnerable against the icy wall. The frigid air bites at my bare skin, escalating the fear coursing through my veins. As the world around me begins to fade, into darkness. I could feel and see his gaze piercing through me, a haunting image that lingers in my mind just before succumbing to unconsciousness.Nathalia’s POV As I wander through the Nightshade Warriors Pack, a rush of memories engulfs my thoughts, transporting me back to the moment I initially set foot in this place.

Nevertheless, I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have had Marcellus as my companion, as he became my pillar of strength and reassurance. He took it upon himself to personally acquaint me with every single member of the pack, going above and beyond to ensure that I felt embraced and embraced by this tight-knit community.

"I've been gone for much longer than I anticipated, but I have no regrets. However, my pack and family require my presence just as much as yours needs their Alpha and Luna." “I know and completely understand.” I say sadly before shifting my gaze towards grandma.

It dawned on me that she would have to recreate the warm and cozy haven we had built together after enduring the scorching heat of the previous week. Filled with determination, I swung my legs over the edge of the bed and made my way towards the hallway, following the sound of the running shower. Stepping into the shower, I surprised her by enveloping her in my arms, causing her to jump in astonishment. "Sorry, I couldn't resist," he says, his voice low and husky.
