บททั้งหมดของ Marked by the Alpha’s Enemy: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

DerekI got up before the sun rose, unable to rest well with my companion snoring by my side.Without much thought I rolled my eyes at her. She was just as loud in her sleep as she was when I had kept her pinned under my body and pounded into her.Entering my bathroom swiftly, I traipsed down the large path to my shower.I really needed a hot shower, I thought with a groan.Once I turned the water setting to hot and felt the nearly scalding water drip down my head and soak my head, I felt a measure of relief.Several minutes after I got my shower out of the way and made my way out of the bathroom with only a towel wrapped around my waist.My companion for the night - what was her name again, Beatrice or something? - must have begun to stir, and I didn’t want her leaving just yet.I opened the door and stepped back into my room. On the table right next to my bathroom door was the the bowl I had ordered prepared the previous night.True to my thoughts, I noticed she wasn’t on the bed an

AlishaI needed to leave.I picked myself up from the bed slowly. Luckily the sun hadn’t even come close to rising yet and the man still hadn’t been roused from sleep.Quietly I got dressed and tiptoed to the door, my heart pounding.I entered a large hallway that I had never seen before. It was comparable to Sebastian’s home that I gaped.Woah.Who was this man that could live in such a massive house? I walked towards the end of one of the hallways which seemed to stretch on forever. It was then that I heard a soft voice cal out to me.“Why hello..? I’ve never seen you before. You’re new.”I turned to find an elderly looking woman with silver hair dressed in gold.Though the woman’s voice was kind, my hackles had risen. I was hoping to leave before anyone would see me and now that plan was a bust. Crap.The woman’s eyes surveyed me.“You’re a quiet one, aren’t you?” She noted, curiosity coloring her voice.“I’m, um… I’m sorry.” My stammers were not the assured tone I wanted to carry,

Alisha:I stirred from my restless slumber to the sounds of birds. The forest was quiet at the early hours of the evening and I could see the dawn peeking through the morning sky. I was in a clearing, resting on one of the larger roots of the redwood trees around me. I had walked so long before I had come upon it that afternoon. And I had stopped to rest. My tears had long run dry but I was still shaken from everything.That was when I heard it; unmistakable sounds of footsteps, crunching leaves in their path.Following it was the sound of humming which made me tense and look around me. The voice was closer than I expected. I saw him before he saw me; a man coming up from my left.But it was too late for me to hide a I knew that as soon as he stopped humming, his face turned in my direction.I looked down as the footsteps grew close and closer.Now I was in trouble.“Now who are you?” I heard him ask, as if he was talking to himself.You’re dead. You can’t even survive a day without

Alisha:“Wrap the bandages tightly like this,” the soothing voice of Simon guided me as I redid the bandages for the third time. My hands were steadier than before and I didn’t feel afraid of being reprimanded despite having messed up.I had no idea why but old man Simon made me feel more comfortable than anyone else ever had…More than Sebastian ever had.I finished the knot on the child’s arm a lot firmer than I had before, and I smiled as I heard no word of caution or reprimand.“Alright,” Simon breathed out and inspected my work briefly before gently placing the child’s hand back into the sling. He was speaking to the mother now. “Make sure you keep him from using this hand, even when he tries to play with his brother.” The mother nodded. “Okay, see you next week.”I smiled and waved at the child as he waved toothily at me with his unbroken hand.As soon as the door was shut I began to clear up the equipments used. It was already 4pm, which meant that the regular clinic hours were

Derek:“Damn it,” I cursed as the dart hit the outer side of the board.We were in my study, safely ensconced having eaten dinner and with enough drinks available to fell a skilled sailor.“You lost,” Benjamin cackled. “Again. Drink up, Alpha.”I cursed endlessly at him and he only handed me the half-full whiskey bottle. I took a swig and sat down on the couch, feeling the alcohol burn down my throat through to my stomach. I sighed. That was mildly pleasant.“The goddess smiles down upon you this night,” I teased my best friend. “That’s why I’m losing so much.”“Yeah, yeah, tell yourself that, Derek,” Benjamin laughed at me. Seconds later he turned to me again. “Look at us, a bunch of bachelors just having the time of our lives. I mean, at least one of us is a bachelor proper right?”I paused.“Right,” I murmured to myself, taking another sip of the whiskey. “Could you not say anything about that so loudly? The walls have ears you know.”I didn’t want anyone asides from Benny to know
