Chapter 8AzaraI froze, dumbstruck, replaying her words in my head to be sure my ears weren't deceiving me. My shaky hands caressed the inflamed area she hit on my face. How dare she? How dare my mates watch her hit me without doing anything? Even Arien?! Aria's rage grew wild in my head, threatening to come out to rip this bitch apart, but I knew it wouldn't end well for me. Not after their intentions towards me were stated in the car. I shut my eyes, allowing tears to fall uncontrollably as Atlas’ words rang in my head, shattering my broken heart. “You mean nothing to us, Azalea. We will never accept you as our mate. Get that into your empty skull!”I allowed those harsh words to marinate into me as I swallowed the sadness lodged in my throat. My heart crashed at an intense amount of pain. This pain was different. It was torment. The stinging slaps I received from that bitch were nothing compared to the deep sense of torment I felt while watching my mates’ cold reaction wit
Chapter 9Azara.Struck by confusion, I glared at the girl like she had grown two heads as I was unable to comprehend her words. Tonight was going to be a long and dramatic one. First, it was the quadruplets and their supposed mate, Giselle, now it is a strange girl appearing to me out of nowhere, spewing incomprehensible words. What did she mean by she had been waiting for me all her life? How did she know me? For how long? I didn't even know her. Who was she, and what did she want from me?My heartbeat accelerated as I took a step backwards, my back flattened against the wall. How did she know my name? Was she aware of my identity? Goddess! “What do…you mean?” I stuttered, unable to hide the fear that was evident in my shaky voice. She released a small smile, placing her hand on my shoulder in a friendly gesture. “Relax Azalea, I am just like you, a slave, desperate for freedom. Tonight is our night because we will achieve it together. Meet me at the old oak tree behind the S
Chapter 10AzaraI fell slowly to the cold floor, allowing my back to slide off the wall before burying my head between my thighs as agonizing screams descended from my already swollen eyes. This was too much for me.By the Goddess, I don't think I can deal with another heartbreak. If this was her way of punishing me for my mistake, then she was going too far. My fragile heart can't take any more shocking revelations. I couldn't believe that in less than 12 hours, I'd encountered huge losses. My parents, my pack, my home, my mates, even myself. Nobody wants me. Not even Aria. She is fed up with my reckless choices. My presence stirs trouble and disaster. I was a disappointment and a curse. “I don't know what to do anymore, I just want to be with you,” I whispered softly to the urn that contained my parents’ ashes before bursting into tears. I thought I was strong enough to handle the torture, but my strength was failing me. It was only a matter of time before I sank into the
Chapter 11Azara“Friends don't lie to each other. You can confide in me, Azalea,” Scarlett pressed on, her small face only a few inches from mine as if reading me. To say that I was beyond terrified was an understatement. Confusion got the best of me. What did she want with this information? No doubt she was a nice person and she was the first person that understood me since my arrival. But I couldn't help but feel an eerie sensation. I was torn between two options. Open up to her or dismiss her with a lie. How could I dismiss her with a lie? Her piercing gaze was fixated on my face as if screening for answers. She would never believe any cheap talk at this moment because I let anger get the best of me, revealing a part of me that needed to be buried forever. I failed to listen to Aria's warnings. If it's true that Giselle is an Alpha wolf, then she must be the strongest. Regular wolves wouldn't be a match for her as she would defeat them effortlessly. The only wolves capab
Chapter 12Giselle“Get out!” I yelled at my servants, watching them scurry in fear before slamming the door hard against their faces. My body quivered in fury. I could feel smoke emitting from every part of my body. My blood boiled at an extreme pace that made me feel like I was about to explode. Fuck that bitch! “Ahhh!” I screamed, ripping the see-through lingerie jacket off my body before tossing it on the floor carelessly. Walking over to my vanity table as I was consumed by raw rage, my hands swept past every item arranged on it, throwing them in a flip of hand***** as they crashed to the floor loudly. But I wasn't satisfied. The urge to destroy more things swallowed me whole. Obeying my emotions, I marched to the expensive sculpture beside the wall, grabbing it carelessly before smashing it on the ground. It shattered into a billion pieces but the hunger to destroy more things grew strangely wild. Gritting my teeth, I punched the wall hard, imagining it was the bitch Aza
Chapter 13Author's pov.“Pathetic incompetent fools!”The Rogue King, King Darius’ thunderous roars shook the underground chambers to its root. His voice was shaken with disappointment, and his scarred face was purple with raw rage. “How dare you lose them? How dare you get defeated by the Opal wolves?!” He was out of control, boiling with fury. Anger seeped through the pores of his skin, hovering above him like a thick cloud of smoke. His blazing bulging eyes turned red, as if emitting fire. His intimidating figure was oppressive, and the sight of his sharp, elongated canines glistening under the soft glow of the lamp made his subjects cower in fear. Their deep sense of fear caused him intense pleasure. He desired nothing but the torture of reminding them that he was the supreme leader, their Master, their King. Their lives meant nothing. He can take it as he pleases. The silence in the hall was oppressing as the members of his crusade remained on the spot they stood. Their
Chapter 14Azara.“I order you to stop!”Tears streamed freely down my eyes as I tried to make my way past the huge gate in an attempt to escape the guards. My long wavy hair was tousled by the wind as it stuck to my teary face, obstructing my view. I ran. I swore I ran like my life depended on it, but it felt like my body was held down by an invisible force that slowed down every movement I made, making the guards draw closer to me. “Surrender!” The guards continued, yelling frantically, but I wasn't backing down now. My legs started to fail me as it felt like they were dipped in hardened cement. Every step was difficult. The urge to activate my super speed rang in my head, but the consequences held me back. I didn't want to create suspicion in the public. The Luna and Scarlett already believe that there is more to my unusual strength. Scarlett. That lying deceitful bitch!How could she be so callous? Pretending like a friend only to switch up on me in the blink of an eye. A
Chapter 15Azara.“What?” I cocked my head, my jaws dropping to the ground as my heart flew up to my chest. “You are playing games, trying to act like the victim and mess with our minds. It's not working, girl.” “You keep lying that Scarlett forced you into this, but in reality, no one goes by the name Scarlett. I have been a guard for over 15 years and I know everyone. It's either you are crazy, assuming an imaginary person to be Scarlett and pushing the blame on her or you are trying to trick us, which we won't fall for.” Disbelief cloaked me like a garment. I couldn't believe my ears. Scarlett wasn't real?!I couldn't have spoken with my imagination and assumed it to be real. How could this be? “No!” I broke the silence, pointing furiously at Scarlett, who stood amidst the rest of the guards. “That is Scarlett over there. She told me her name and how she has been a servant all her life. I promise you, I'm not lying.” I cried, bursting into another round of tears as we neared
Chapter 56Author's pov. The atmosphere twisted into a darker one, jolting them in fear as his condescending aura blasted them. Giselle could feel the eerie presence of death lurking in the shadows, waiting patiently for a trigger before springing into action. One wrong move was enough to snap Alaric, switching to his ugly side. But if she played her cards well, she could live to see another day. “Leave us,” She spoke to Lucille, her voice was sharp, loe, yet firm enough to instill fear into her soul.Her deep-set hazel eyes glared at Alaric she didn't blink. From the corner of her eyes, she could see Lucille scurry off the room as fear descended into her fragile body.It was the two of them now. A monster facing a greater monster. The loud thumping of her heart shattered the deafening silence. Slipping her trembling fingers behind her back to avoid her emotions giving her away, she masked the fear that threatened to overshadow her, shoving a small smile at him. Her tensed body
Chapter 55Author's povChaos descended in the luxuriously furnished room as the sound of shattering wood pierced the evening. “Where the hell is this thing?!” Giselle screamed in her head; the blend of anger, frustration, anxiety, and fear oozed out of her, filling every inch of the room. Standing amid the chaos with furious eyes scanning every inch of the room, her jet black hair was disheveled, dangling loosely over her shoulders and her chest rose and fell rapidly as anxiety got the best of her.Her canines grinned against each other, screaming frustration as her claws slipped out, piercing her skin until droplets of blood created a pool on the floor. Beads of sweat trickled down her eyes, stinging them as tears threatened to pour. How could she be so careless?! Such deadly tonic couldn't be seen with someone else….ever! Unleashing the rage eating deep within her, she resumed hurling objects, sending them crashing against the wall. Shards of glass, broken objects, dismantle
Chapter 54 Author's pov. “Alaric,” her velvety soft voice caused shivers to rush through Alaric's spine as he felt his heart melting. “I am here, baby, Alaric is here,” he responded tenderly, his deep voice resonating with assurance. His eyes twinkled with emotions as he forced them to stay open. He was afraid that if he blinked, Azalea would vanish before him like a smoke. A burst of joy flooded his veins as his wolf howled in excitement. Azalea was awake! He couldn't believe his eyes. He was afraid he would never see her again. For the first time in a week, a genuine smile stretched widely on his face. Pulling her close to him, he cuddled her fragile body, lowering his head before planting a soft kiss on her forehand. Muffling a pur, his nose rested on her neck, shutting his eyes as he took in her sweet scent. His head burst in pleasure as he took a deep breath. He could feel the heat rising on his cheeks, staining them red as his stormy grey eyes met her green o
Chapter 53Author's pov. The air in the cell thickened in anticipation as Alpha Asael and Alaric's deadly gaze were fixated on her trembling lips, awaiting her next words. The pounding of her heart against her chest echoed in her ears. Her breathing turned erratic as she intertwined her fingers, fidgeting as nervousness descended on her like a cloak. The consequences of her actions pressed heavily against her chest once more, ringing in her head like a cathedral bell, inviting the claws of fear to tear through her heart, forcing her next words back into her throat before they could escape. Driven by determination, she released the tensed breath she had been holding when she walked in, blinked past her fears,, and swallowed hard. “Alphas,” she called out slowly, bowing briefly before meeting their impatient gaze. “I know the culprit, but I don't have evidence…but all I need is for you to believe. I swear, I know Azalea's killer.”Crippling silence fell into the room as Asael glared
Chapter 52Author's pov. Madam Lilian had barely left the room when the door flung open again–This time more violently that the hinges almost came off as it slammed hard across the wall. Tension hung in the air the moment Giselle's scent wafted into her nostrils. A surge of terror crashed over her like a tidal wave as goosebumps spread throughout her skin. Her breath came off jagged, her chest tightened in anxiety as Giselle's aura almost suffocated her. She froze on a spot, her eyes glued to the floor as Giselle made her way slowly in her direction. “As if I knew you would be in this shambles.” Giselle's unimpressed voice broke the uncomfortable silence. From the corner of her eyes, Tatiana could see Giselle survey the room with displeasure plastered on her face. “What do you want…from me?” she asked, her voice barely above a whisper, stammering as Giselle's aura had her in a choke-hold. Halting in her tracks, her sharp fingers clenched around Tatiana's chin, digging through
Chapter 51Author's pov.“Giselle poisoned Azalea!” Tatiana's breath hung in her throat as the pressure from tension almost sent her heart crashing. Her weak heart hammered repeatedly against her chest as fear engulfed her like a cloak, sending beads of sweat running down her forehead.She felt her spirit leave her body the moment Asael’s icy blue eyes penetrated the walls of her mind, sending a torrent of panic down her spine. Those words never dared to leave her mouth. She tried to force them out, but her lips were sealed shut. Her sad brown eyes could only watch Asael’s harsh ones as she hoped he wouldn't punish her for wasting his time. Giselle poisoned Azalea. Those words echoed throughout her head, causing fear to erupt in her gut. She wanted to scream it– to reveal the truth that ate deep into her like a cankerworm, stealing her peace of mind. The weight of the guilt pressed heavily on her fragile shoulders, especially after visiting Azalea's body in the cell. “What?
Chapter 50Asael.“Alpha, should I begin the funeral arrangements for Miss Azalea Hunter?” The Gamma asked in a low and measured tone, his heart thumping as anxiety got the best of him. “It's been seven days, still, she hasn't shown any sign of life.” His quivering voice came off as a whisper, each word chosen carefully, not daring to provoke me to anger. My breath hitched as molten anger charged at my veins, boiling the blood running through it. Rage erupted inside me like a volcano. My jaws locked, and my fingers tightened around the short tumbler. How dare he?!In a swift violent motion, I hurled the short tumbler at him, watching it jam into his head before he could dodge it.I never miss. Satisfaction flowed in my veins like lava as blood gushed out of the spot that was hit, soiling his shirt.The marvelous sight pleased my eyes. My blood roared like wildfire as the urge to charge at him like a savage beast slammed hard into me. How dare he deliver the heart-wrenching new
Chapter 49Alaric.“What are you waiting for? Do something!” I yelled at Madam Lilian, watching her jump in fear before collapsing to my knees. “By the Goddess, There is nothing my herbs will do to revive her. She is gone, Alpha.”“Don't you fucking say that!” I roared, grabbing onto the collar of her clothes as anger blinded my eyes. It wasn't until her terrified screams pierced my ears that I realized I was hurting her. Fuck! I was losing it! Azalea is not gone. I tried to convince myself, repeating those words, but her chalk-white skin and her dark lips proved otherwise. I felt myself shattering from within. The urge to release my wolf consumed me. The urge to kill everyone to avenge Azalea consumed me. “Did you fucking call a Doctor?” “Yes. I tried dropping some herbs into her mouth to keep her alive before the Doctor's arrival, but it was abortive. The poison was too strong for her. She died in pain, choking on her own blood.” I felt a fresh wave of pain hit me, almost ma
Chapter 48Alaric. The conference dragged into the late afternoon, leaving us exhausted and drained. Since it was the last day of the 7-day summit, we decided to remain in one of our hotels before leaving for the Pack the next day.The next day felt like an eternity to me. I had pushed the idea for us to return to the Pack immediately after the summit, but I backed out later. Asael was starting to suspect my suggestion was because I wanted to see Azalea. Azalea. I missed that sweet soul. I couldn't wait to dive into her embrace, burying my head on her neck to inhale her intoxicating scent. It drove me insane, stirring my wolf wide awake. It began to bother me how she encroached on my thoughts and invaded my mind. Not every minute goes by without me thinking about her–of things I wanted to do to her–Pinning her against the wall while covering her plump lips with mine. Making her convulse hard beneath me. Branding my name in her memory so she won't forget to scream it loud wh
