LYRIC"Please! Please, just stop."I couldn't take anymore. I had been cut all over. The pain was excruciating.He lowered his bloody knuckles, and I wanted to puke knowing it was my blood."Why are you doing this?" I sobbed. "How can you... How can you do this to someone?"His mouth formed a sarcastic smile. "No hard feelings, love. I'm merely trying to mark you." His claw came to my throat again, cutting a fresh line across it. "I need my brother to see the proof that you and I were together."I I could hardly make out his voice amidst the shrill scream that escaped me.Long after he released my throat, I continued wailing. It hurt. All over. I was afraid I would die soon if he kept up with this.The monster kept staring at me, waiting patiently for me to stop screaming."Initially, I'd been conflicted between taking you or the kids," he spoke again when I stopped screaming.My wet eyes rounded in disbelief. "But then, I decided it'd be more fun having you around."This guy wa

LYRICI passed out and couldn't even tell for how long. All I knew was, after the call with Jaris, Caden still beat me some more, just for the sake of it. It became too much to handle that I passed out. I didn't even know how he managed to bring me awake just now, but I sure didn't want to stay conscious. It made me aware of the pains and the fact that I was between life and death. "Feeling better?" Caden asked with a smirk, his face in mine. My stomach churned at the sight of him. Gods, I hated this man. He was a monster who deserved to rot in hell.Right now, however, I was at his mercy. I wanted to beg him some more to let me go, but my mouth wouldn't open. My eyes could barely stay open either. The pain was unbearable. "Don't worry, we're done here. One of my people will take you to the drop off location."I was so relieved I wanted to cry. This...this was over? I wasn't going to die?"But you wouldn't mind delivering a message to Jaris, would you?" His finger came t

JARIS I went closer, sat on the edge of the bed and brought my hand to her hair, gently removing some strands from her face.It was hard to stare at her as all I could see was her in pain. Her tortured cry was very much clear in my head; how she bagged the asshole to stop hurting her.Oh, Lyric. I always thought my kids were my weaknesses. I thought they'd be the only ones to make me lose my mind at the prospect of them being hurt.But Lyric...she did stranger things to me. Only the gods knew how much I fought to hold onto sanity when I heard her screaming.Pulling myself away, I went into the bathroom for a cold shower.I was buttoning up the final clasp on my pajamas when I heard a small exhale behind me. I turned with the speed of a whirlwind and felt a crushing relief when I found Lyric's eyes open."Hey," I went to her. "How's it? How're you feeling?"She remained still, her eyes taking the room in. They took longer to get to me, but when they finally did, the relief in t

LYRIC When I finished eating, a doctor came in to check on me. She brought me fresh clothes and applied something to my wounds.It was funny how I could've easily siphoned this pain away from others yet couldn't do the same for myself. That was the sick thing about Siphons. We could help others but not ourselves.The doctor was still with me when Jaris returned. His shirt was soaked with sweat, like he had been gyming or running.Maddy stood up from the bed as soon as she saw him, her jaw set in a frown."You should take my advice, Lyric. Come with me to my room."Goodness, Maddy!"Don't worry, I'm fine."She huffed. "I'll be leaving, then. I'll come check on you later." She left with the kids who had already hugged Jaris when he arrived."How's she?" He asked the doctor."Better than yesterday, Alpha. A few more days and she'll be completely fine."A few more days. That sounded like days of torture to me.The doctor rounded up and left, leaving me alone with him."Is there som

JARIS For a full minute, no words were shared between us, our eyes doing the talking. Finally, he gave in to the loss and leaned back in his seat. "I guess we should start talking, then." He locked his fingers behind his head. "Before we proceed, however, I'd love to know how the kids are."Something shifted in my chest, but I forced my expression to remain blank, my eyes not leaving his face even as he gave a stupid smile. "You know, my little niece and nephew. Never met them. But I'd sure like to. Would you permit that, Jaris?"I cocked my head to the side. "Mention my kids one more time and this conversation is over."He chuckled. "Fine. I want my position back." His tone got serious, but he sounded stupid all the same. "You should know you're in my place, Jaris. If you didn't betray me and had me locked up, I'd have been Alpha, and definitely the one competing for the grand throne." He leaned forward again. "You sent me away to be imprisoned forever while you get the t
