All Chapters of I Need A Second Chance : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

MELISSAI stood on the eastern border, the scent of moist earth and pine in the crisp evening air. The patrol warriors were at attention, their eyes locked on me, anticipating my order. I scanned their faces, my chest swelling with pride at their self-control."Double the night shifts," I commanded, ny voice sharp. "I want scouts in front of every blind spot on the ridge. If you sense even a whiff of trouble, report directly to me or Alpha Rico."The head warrior, Grant, saluted. "Will do, Luna. We'll double our shifts immediately.""Good." I softened the voice. "Keep your wits about you, but don't overdo it. If something doesn't seem right, trust your instincts."Grant and the others nodded, making assenting noises before moving off into the dense forest.With orders in hand, I made my way back towards the pack house, my mate bond urging me to go towards Rico. I smiled a small smile as I quickened my step. It was a long day and I was ready cuddle with him, maybe catch a few quiet mom

MELISSAI hated to admit it, but I was powerless to change my fate.I had tried—goddess, I had tried—to talk to Rico, to make him look at me, to force him to hear me out. But every time I got close, Lorinda made sure I was pulled back into the hell my life had turned into.It started with small humiliations—fetching water from the farthest well, scrubbing floors others had intentionally dirtied. Then it escalated. Harder tasks. Longer hours. Punishments doled out on a whim, most frequently at Lorinda's hands."You missed a spot," Lorinda had sneered one evening, tipping over the bucket of dirty water I had been using to scrub the floors of the main halls. "Do it again."I had clenched my fists, a storm of anger brewing in my chest. But what could she do? The guards were there, watching. The pack members turned away.So, I gulped down my pride and scrubbed.---I fell into a routine. I’d wake at dawn from the thin mattress in my square, windowless room. I’d pull on the coarse grey shi

Melissa“Rico!” my voice barely above a whisper.I watched him turn his back on me as he left with his new side, Lorinda. He didn't even take a second glance at me. I could see Lorinda joyful as though she had won a war till we were out of sight.I was broken, devastated and confused.“But what did Rico just do with me?”I couldn't understand all that just happened, was I a slave? That was my husband that tossed me off like a piece of trash. I didn't mean anything to him anymore. I was rejectedAnd now sold to none other than Troy.Alpha Troy paid deaf ears to my wailing as he dragged me along with him.A lot kept on reeling in my head at once as my new Alpha gripped my hands as we journeyed.The journey was getting too long, the road winding through thick forests and rocky paths. I could feel all my body ache from the strain of being dragged away so abruptly, but who cares. No one did, not even my new Alpha. I glanced at Troy, who had remained silent all through the journey. He neve

MelissaThe silence in the room was suffocating.I sat still on the edge of the massive bed, hands clenched in my lap in fear, every muscle in my body was in tension. The air felt colder than normal, despite the warmth of the fire dancing in the hearth.I could see the dress I wore earlier lay in a heap on the floor. I was now clothed in a simple slip—delicate, thin, and far too revealing for what I knew was coming that could please my Alpha.I couldn't help but notice everything until the door creaked open.There he was! Alpha TroyHe stepped in, with his commanding presence claiming the space the moment he entered.I rose to my feet instinctively, my chest began tightening at every step he took.His eyes found mine.He wasn't smiling and he didn’t even say a word as he entered.He suddenly closed the door behind him and leaned against it, arms crossed, staring at me like he was trying to read something written on my skin. Something quite alluring to his eyes.“What a meal” he said

MelissaKiara had left for her duties and I sat by the window seeing how the pack was being operated.I couldn't seem to find Luna, all I could see were slaves, workers and guards. He was a strong Alpha and could have a Luna at will, yet I could see no one.The evening air had become very thick with the scent of pine and danger.I knew he was coming even though I felt he should at least give me some break.The slow echo of boots in the hallway, the hush of guards moving aside—it all made my stomach churn. I knew it was him.Alpha Troy.My body immediately began to curl tighter in the corner of the room, muscles tense from anticipation and leftover pain. No where to really hide myself.He didn’t even knock this time. The heavy door creaked open like it belonged to him more than I did.And maybe it did after all, it was his pack house, and I was his sex slave. He had every right to go into any room he felt like.He stepped inside looking ruthless and dominative, I really wished I coul
