Seven’s point of ViewAnother thing I had heard about Sabrina was her conservativeness which was another thing for me. “Heh, she’ll eventually give in if we were her mate,” my wolf scoffed. “Don’t be an ass. It’s a good thing we found a mate.”As I recalled the taste of her soft lips I grinned. My prideful wolf was taken aback by the slap hence the reason he acted an ass. She stared at me for a brief moment as she was led back by me to the private packhouse. I couldn’t sense that she was trying to read my mood, which was futile. “Maybe it wouldn’t hurt as much,” She muttered underneath her breath.With my enhanced hearing, I caught her words which fazed me. Hurt what?Soon, we saw the door she had gone through. I slapped the door shut, not caring whether it ripped off its hinges, the sound was loud enough to awaken the occupants of the guard house and soon two men were rushing out of their rooms.“Your highness.” Both men submitted to me.“Where were you when your Queen was le
Seven’s Point of View“She’s mine,” Alpha Axel screamed at me, his veins were popping, he wanted blood. “Formerly, yes,” I said as my eyes bore on his features. Alpha Axel was known as Demon Alpha. He’s the only one trusted by the Pack Royals and never dared to oppose. But not me. He owes me a lot. I spared his life. “Bastard,” he said, grinning his teeth. “Moon Goddess gave her to me! She was supposed to be mine!”I lazily sat on my throne and crossed my legs. “Let me remind you about our little secret, Axel. You said you’ll give me something in exchange for your life. Did you forget it already?”Axel swallowed. I watched his Adam apple going up and down due to mixed emotions. “I can give anything but not her. My pack will weaken without their Luna,” he said. “Because she was the last healer, that’s the reason, right?” I said. Axel’s eyes locked on mine. I could tell the hatred from layers of his emotions. “It's not that-”“Sabrina will be useful in your pack, Axel. I know you
Kayah’s Point of viewI rolled over, reaching for the other side of the bed but felt no one. I groggily opened my eyes and propped myself up in one elbow, stared blankly down at the blanket over me as I tried to clear the cobwebs from my head.The clock on the night table said it was after nine, my scrutiny said she was all alone in the room.It was to be expected, Seven was a King who had a lot of duties but it still hurts as he couldn’t make time for me. Besides the clock was a glass of water and I reached out to get it. I gulped down half a glass, partly because I was thirsty and partly to kick start my brain. I hissed loudly as I felt how swollen my lips were. “Pervert!” I glared at the glass like it was Seven. Of course, I knew who the culprit was and I couldn’t deny how giddy and flustered I felt.I had just put down the glass and was trying to piece together the event of the early hours in the morning, when the door opened and Cassandra stepped in. “You are awake, Good.” Sh
Kayah’s Point of ViewThe castle shifted into a magical hall for my coronation. Seven’s people did their utmost best to turn the dark castle into something out of fairy tales. Instead of its usual black, Seven finally agreed to temporarily change the paint into blue and white just for tonight. My gown was a royal blue ball gown. It was the same gown that was passed down from generations. The original design was preserved and never altered. It was seemingly the gown adjusted to fit the Queens of generations. Cassandra awed at my make-up and gown.“Oh my gosh, my lady, you looked so stunning,” she praised me. I thanked her and let her lead me to the main hall of coronation.“Cass, you can leave me here. I’ll be okay,” I said once we reached the hall where I’ll descend using a stair. Sabrina’s parents, the Alpha and Luna arrived at exactly seven in the evening Rom trailing behind them through the threshold. King Seven greeted them all with a smile. I was there hiding as I watched th
Kayah’s Point of ViewNot only did Seven send me a curious look but his sister Kelsey was there too. She was curious as her brother. She has her hawk- eye pasted on me.Few days before the coronation.“And you should know better than to speak to me in that manner,” I retorted sharply. It was obvious that Kelsey didn’t like me or even want me around so there was no need to be polite with her.Kelsey was taken aback by the sharp response from me but Kelsey didn’t stop there.She sneered. “Who do you think you are? Do you think that you can just show up and expect everyone to listen to your whims?”“Even if you don’t accept me as your Queen, you shouldn’t forget that I am also an important wolf,” I slowly turned around, I caught a glimpse of a few guards watching them, including Ron. “And do you know what having a healer title means? It means bow down.” I moved so fast that Kelsey didn’t have time to react, before she could come to her senses, I slapped her, kicked her legs thereby ca
Kayah’s Point of View“I hereby present to you the new Queen of Rogue Kingdom, her majesty, Sabrina Moonhalf. All will address her accordingly. Those who will disrespect her will face death as punishment.”The tiara on my head was changed into a blue sapphire laced crown. It wasn’t as big as Seven’s but it held the title that every she-wolves wanted. The crown that was supposed to be Sabrina’s. “Hail the new Queen! This will strengthen the relationship of my kingdom and the Queen’s pack,” Seven said as he held my hand and led me before all the rogues and Sabrina’s pack. “I agreed!” Alpha William raised his wine glass to everyone. “My daughter, the last healer, is the pride of my pack. It is natural she’ll be mated and marry the Highness. “We stayed neutral for a long time and it is a common gesture to support the side where my daughter was mated.”The party went on and I requested Seven to let me rest for a while in a private room. I decided to close my eyes and put everything behin
Seven’s point of View“You know, give her the benefit of doubt,” Sebastian, my best friend said. He was the captain of my offensive warriors. The man went out of his way to come here instead of going home? I stood up, pushing my chair back and walked around my mahogany table. I sat at the ledge of the table and pursed my lips."And?"“Maybe your conclusion about her is true. That she’s someone else.”I roled my eyes. “So can you tell me why does she look like Sabrina?”Sebastian drank on his glass. “Then maybe she has an amnesia or something.”“Maybe. But what are you doing here?”Sebastian said nothing. His adam's apple bobbed slowly as he swallowed down his nerves. His eyes immediately took refuge at the ground. His fists were clenched and his jaw was tightened. The papers would have to wait. It appears to me that my best friend here was in trouble. “Remember Austine?” he asked me. “How can I not remember him when I killed his father?”"And... I think you should send him away
Kayah’s Point of View“Tell Me Who You Are!” Seven yelled at me. He was in his half werewolf appearance, something only a rogue could do. “Who are you, pretender?His sharp claw ripped through my stomach, opening my skin as the brooding he was smiling at me. The sinister look in his eyes forced a shiver to leave my body. Blood trickled down my stomach, the thick drops diverting my attention from the pain, but only momentarily. I knew I'd heal, but the pain was still as harsh as ever. "You need to know that I'm not messing around. Where is the real Sabrin?." He smirked at me, falling over his words. I knew he was somewhat intoxicated. Deciding that silence would be my best tactic, I backed away from him slowly. Trying to convey peace with my eyes, hoping for some humane part inside of him. Just as he'd about to thrust his claws, a snicker came from behind and a scream left my lips as my thigh was sliced open from behind. A woman walked into my line of sight. It was Kelsey! She wa
The next few scenes were me being punched, kicked and slapped to almost make me pass out. My throat was already hurting due to the constant scream of vegging and leaving me alone. My chest started to bleed again and it stained the oversized white shirt Axel had given me. My screams were now replaced with loud sobs that made my lungs ache. I looked up in fear as the unknown man advanced towards me. He took a deep breath through his nose, and a wide smile spread across his face. Slowly, he walked towards me with deliberate and smooth steps. With each step he took, the malicious grin on his face got wider. I had scooted myself into a corner to try and escape his gaze and ferocity, and as he came to stand in front of me I tried pleading once more. "Please. I am begging you. Just leave me alone. You don't have to do this!" My words came out as sobs. "Shut up! You’re just a slave! You do not talk to me like that!" With another deep breath through his nose, he crouched down next to me a
I woke up to sunlight shining in my face, and the sound of a girl screaming. The sound was excruciatingly loud and sent chills up my spine. Above the screaming, I could hear Axel’s voice shouting. I couldn't make out the words, but he sounded furious and excited. The screaming continued for about another minute, until it slowly died down. The entire time this was happening, I sat cowering in the corner of my room, fearing I would be next to be screaming like that. But I made my decisions…to play safe..After what seemed like an eternity, I heard a door slam and footsteps coming my way. I cringed back in fear and huddled against the wall. The freshly stitched wounds on my chest reminded me of Axel’s brutality, and I didn't want to see what he was like when he was mad. My door was pushed open to reveal-of course- an infuriated Axel. He looked at my small frame huddled in the corner farthest from him, and smiled. I felt no comfort from his expression, only more fear. He stepped forward
I kept my head down and watched his feet as he approached me. Before I knew it, he was right next to me, lifting my chin upwards to look at his face. I tried to keep my eyes averted from his gaze and stop the tears that threatened to come again. "Look at me." His hot breath growled into my face.I slowly brought my eyes up to meet his. They were a deep, voidless black. This was the first good look I had gotten at his eyes and I hoped it would be my last. His black hair hung to the side with a few pieces escaping to fall on his forehead. A square jaw held light pink lips that always seemed to be smirking at me. His face was completely devoid of emotion, even though he was smirking. His eyes held nothing but emptiness and he looked at me as weak. It was terrifying being this close to him, and I could tell he knew I was uncomfortable. His hand grew tighter on my chin as I struggled desperately to free my head from his grip. I was beyond scared and wanted to be as far away from him as I
The envelope was brown. It doesn’t have a receiver or sender name.I should have felt it then, the warning, the poison in the air.Curious, I opened it anyway.The photograph slid out with a whisper.Seven’s face hit me first and beside him was a familiar face, too familiar, his arm wrapped around her. Hailey. The Moon Goddess. Her lips curved in a smirk so triumphant it made me sick.And between them was a baby. My baby.I staggered back a step, as if the floor itself had betrayed me. The little boy nestled in Hailey’s arms was unmistakable, the soft curl of his hair, the tiny birthmark on his cheek, a mark I knew because I had kissed it a thousand times. His smile, the one he used to give me, now aimed at her. At them. The baby I thought was kidnapped. My knees buckled.The pain wasn’t sharp. It was deep, an endless splitting inside my chest, like I was being hollowed out from the inside. Seven didn’t even look guilty. He looked proud. As if he belonged there, next to her, instead o
I awoke in my stall on the bed. Light was streaming through the small window high above me. The ferals outside were noisy and I could hear that they were tearing something apart. The sound was like squelching, like flesh tearing from bones or I don’t even want to know it. But because I was freaking curious, I stood up, despite the protest of my chest and looked at the small hole in my room. And there it was. A body was torn apart, the ferals were fighting, playing tag, trying to have a large portion.“So, who was it again?” I heard someone speak up. “The other man that the king found three weeks ago,” a man said. “Oh, the one who kept on resisting?”“Yes. Unfortunately, the king’s patience ran out and he fed him to his dog.”“Well, all of those who resist him always end up being fed to these beasts,” the other man replied, which scared me. Axel must have moved me from the floor to my bed and I was glad I was asleep for that. The pain of walking or being carried would have been uni
My mouth instantly began to water. He saw me staring at his hands and laughed aloud this time. "Oh, is my little mate? Hungry?" All I could do was nod intently. It had been days since I had anything to eat or drink, and the result of that was starting to weigh upon me."Well, why don't you come over to me and get it then?" Axel looked at me with danger in his eyes. He knew I refused, he’ll just going to do what he wanted and if I talk back, Fenrir will have mercy on me. Once I realized he was serious and the only way for me to get the piping hot bowl of newly cooked meat was to walk over to him, I almost screamed in frustration. He put me through it all, he tortured me and now I'm just supposed to walk it off?! Unbelievable. Despite what I thought though, he wasn't going to give me any food until I came over to him. I began to muster up all my strength and courage even if the thing on my chest hurts like hell. It didn’t dry up or at least close. In fact it went deeper in my flesh,
Jefferson led me back to my room. “I’m sorry,” I said, almost in a whisper.Jefferson halted and turned around to me. “Yeah, whatever. It’s too late,” he replied and assumed walking. “Just to let you know, Axel doesn't have plans on letting you live for too long. I shouldn’t tell you this but well, maybe I thought you deserve to know.”When we reached my room, he opened the door and I entered inside before.him slamming the door and locking it. Inside, I saw that the haystack was gone and replaced by a bed. I laid there for at least an hour. My eyes grew heavy and exhaustion threatened to overtake me, but I refused to fall asleep. I needed to get out of this torture house and back to my pack. How that would happen- I had no idea. I hoped beyond hope that Axel wouldn't be the one to come back and get me. If I saw him again I might pass out, just out of pure terror. He scared me beyond what I could handle right now, and I couldn't handle very much. With every second that went by I
Before I could process his change of mood, he had my wrists bound in silver handcuffs above my head. I hissed but I still tried to bring them down but a clink of metal and the sensation of being burned without fire prevented me from doing that. Axel had my arms chained above my head to where I was already tiptoeing. I could barely reach the floor. A smirk was now on his face as he stared at me, helpless. I let a whimper escape my lips as all courage drained from my body. Axel only smiled more at that, taking delight in my pain and fear. He now paraded around the room, making his way towards the hot coals in the fire pit. He then tossed more charcoal. “It seemed that you still didn’t know what you were here?” He looked at me expectedly to answer the question. Of course I knew. I knew because he already told me but I pretended I didn’t. “I didn’t.” I tried to lie and spit back at him, but my words only came out as a whimper. Axel laughed at that but didn’t reach his eyes. He step
“I heard him yesterday saying someone will arrive and that someone will occupy that space,” another voice spoke up. “I didn’t know it was also a pack wolf. You’re not a feral.”“Yes,” I replied. “I was trapped, sold and purchased by Axel,” I said and heard everyone gasping. “Don’t mention his name. He can hear it,” Anna said, I heard a hint of fear.I sighed. Just as I was about to ask another question, a sound came from outside. The ferals stop growling and whine instead. Everyone quickly hushed their voices as the cabin doors creaked open. Footsteps echoed along the pavement and down the way next to my room. There they stopped, and hands started fiddling with the lock to my door. After a faint click the heavy wooden door was pushed open to reveal Axel. He stared in the room, looking at me expectedly.What did he expect me to do? I’m not just going to willingly go to him…With an angry grunt he marched into my room and picked me up by the wrist. I was then dragged across the cabin
