Olivia's POVDawn took extremely too long to come and I guessed it was due to my over excitement for today. Noon did the same thing and when evening slowly approached, I was seated in front of the vanity mirror with Gabi, Susan and a couple other ladies beside me.Right now, I was surrounded by ladies I see in the pack, but do not know them and that I had barely associated with.It was all going to change when I finally become the Lady of the house. The Luna of the silvermoon pack. Fuss was made over my nails of what nail polish color would fit perfectly on it. I let them make the fuss cause I did not care much about it. I just wanted to be linked arm in arm with my groom and tell him ' I do'. They finally decided on a chic blue nail polish coupled with a glitter lacquer polish for design. It did turn out great and my toe nails were given a nude nail polish color after minutes of a nice pedicure. Same fuss was made over my hair of which style would fit the Lady of the house. I had
**Olivia's POV**“You're worthless. You absolutely know how to do nothing!” Mother yelled as she dragged me from the kitchen by my hair. I held her hand and winced in pain. When we got to the living room, she pushed me to the floor.“Just look at how useless you are! The moon goddess should have killed you the moment I gave birth to you. I would have ended you from birth if I knew this is what you would become,” She snapped, and tears rolled down my cheeks. “Just look at you. You're a mute, who can't even form a correct sentence. You don't know how to do anything, either. I regret having you as my daughter!” She snapped again.How could a mother say such a thing to her child? Was being this way my fault? None of this was my fault. Being mute wasn't either. I just happened to be a victim of the cruel side of fate. I tried to open my mouth to speak to her; to tell her that this wasn't my fault, and to make her know that she should at least show me some atom of love. My life has been he
**Devon's POV**“What the hell is going on here?” I asked the men, who were forcefully holding a lady.They all stopped and she looked up. When our gazes met, something stirred within me. She was the one; she was the one with the scent that clouded my mind a few minutes ago. I had come to the mating ceremony with the sole aim of finding my mate. I've searched for her for years but hadn't found her and came because of that but was disappointed when nothing happened.I was about to leave when a sweet smell hit my nostrils. It smelt like Lavender together with roses, and I knew the smell was coming from my mate. I followed it and it led me here.“Mate!” I growled and walked closer to them.They moved away from her due to fear, and she ran into my arms, taking me by surprise. My eyes widened when she deepened the hug, but it was like she realized something and pulled away from the hug immediately.I held her chin up and looked into her eyes. Something seems off about her. I have a special
**Olivia's POV**My eyes fluttered open, but I suddenly closed it because of the light that radiated through the window. After adjusting to the light, I fluttered my eyes open and gasped at where I was— in the dungeon.What in the world am I doing in the dungeon?The last thing I remembered was being dragged by the guards and calling the Alpha for help. They might think I'm mute, but I'm not completely mute. There are some voices I can still form, and it works when I'm in desperate need of help.I looked around and facepalmed. Did he really bring me to the dungeon? When I called, and he turned and walked towards me, I thought he was bringing me to stay with him, but no, he put me in the dungeon.I sighed as the last hope I had in me vanished completely. It would be better if I stopped putting my hopes high like this.I looked around the dungeon and saw diverse kinds of slaves. Some were old men while others, children. The ones that were older than me had been taken by the other master
**Olivia's POV**He wants me to be his maid?I looked at him shockingly. What he just said was difficult to believe and no matter how I tried to make myself believe? It just wasn't working. How could he do this to me? I looked at him with glassy eyes.He stared back at me, his eyes held so much hate and resentment. “You might be probably hurt by what I said, but I am not taking back my words. This isn't how it should be. We aren't meant to be,” He said, and my heart broke. “I don't want a weak wolf as my mate, it can't work that way,” He sipped his wine and tears rolled down my cheeks.I could sense the hurt in his voice, and it broke my heart the most. It wasn't my fault that I became mute, it was never my fault. Who was I kidding, thinking I could be accepted like this? He thinks I'm weak, and I don't blame him at all. His thoughts might also be fueled by the fact that whenever I get into trouble, I may not be able to ask for help. He wouldn't even want to help me anyway.How do I t
**Olivia's POV**“Just know that it's going to sting… a lot.” The other lady smirked and I gasped.“Come on, Candice. You don't have to make her feel scared.” The doctor folded her hands.“I'm not trying to make her feel scared, Susan. I'm only stating the facts. Suppressants hurt a lot.” She chuckled.Suppressants? What were they giving me suppressants for? I looked at the doctor with a panic stricken face. She sighed.“Don't be scared, okay? This is for your own good. You're a Stealer wolf, and it would be dangerous for you to roam about, since all the unmated and widowed wolves are after you. With this suppressant, we'd be able to cage that stealer wolf in you and make your scent unperceivable for them. I hope you understand what I mean?” She asked and I nodded.“Can't she talk, or is she too terrified to speak?” Candice asked, and I lowered my head.“She's a mute.” The doctor replied and took the syringe.“What!” Candice burst out laughing. The doctor hit her and glared at her. S
Olivia's POV“We need you to poison Alpha Devon and lock his wolf.” He dropped the bomb and my eyes widened.What the heck!I knew it. I knew there was a reason why my father would come to me and speak so nicely to me. He dared to come to me to ask for my help in poisoning my mate. I knew immediately that the only reason he was speaking kindly to me was that he needed something from me.Even though he had treated me poorly in the past, I was still shocked that he would ask me to do something so terrible.I couldn't believe that my father would want me to harm someone like Devon.I was confused. I stared at him as a surge of anger began to well up within me."Listen to me, Olivia." He continued. "Devon doesn't love you. He is only with you because he doesn't want to stay without a mate.""You have to help your father. Remember that this is the only way you can prove to me and everyone else in the pack how useful you can be.""Perhaps it was for a time like this that you were sent to li
Devon's POV After eating my meal, I decided to stroll to the training ground to see how well she was doing. I knew that she was willing to do whatever I said and it was just to please me. I wasn't going to allow her to know that she could please me so easily too. I strolled, to the training ground, expecting to find her there. At least she was supposed to have started the training. I was surprised when I got there and I didn't see her. "Maybe she had to take a detour. For someone as naive as her, things were bound to catch her interest." I had told myself that, at least I believed it to be true. But then even after twenty minutes, she hadn't shown up. Somewhere, I began to feel worried. What if the drugs which the doctor gave her weren't potent enough and wore out? Did it mean that she was in danger? I started pacing to and fro. About fifteen minutes after, I noticed someone approaching from the corner of my eye. I stopped my paving abruptly and behold, it was her. She looked
