Lahat ng Kabanata ng Bound To The Night Reaper: Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

Maya's POVI believe that two days had passed without me seeing Cassian around.From the night that I couldn't sleep, when Mirabelle told me that the Alpha had summoned a special troop of his warriors whose sole purpose was permanent annihilation of whatever and whoever they went after, I couldn't help but wonder who he was going after.More confusing was the fact that in those two days, I couldn't seem to keep my mind from thinking about Cassian.Like a parasite, I found myself constantly worrying about where he was, and what he was up to.But he was finally back.The previous night was filled with chaos and noise.It was hard trying to get some good sleep, when all I could hear was loud music playing in the distance, and indistinguishable muttering that I couldn't place what they were talking about.This was further amplified when the night was filled with giggles and soft voices that seemed to stem from the pack house, heading towards the building where the noise was coming from.W

Maya's POVSomething tugged at my wrist, pulling them further from me.When I tried to pull back, a searing pain shot through my hands and up my spine.I stopped immediately, wondering what was happening.My eyes were open, but I couldn't see anything.I could have immediately jumped to the assumption that I had gone blind, but that wasn't it.Because right in front of me, a few feet away from me, I could see some light.It was faint, and looked like it was coming from a crack in a wall, or maybe a door.I wasn't sure.The air was damp and stale.It reeked of urine and blood, a combination that was strong enough it made my face wince with every breath.My joints ached, and I felt like I had been flogged for an entire day.Even the slightest of movements made me groan and regret it immediately.'How the fuck did I get here?' I asked myself.It wasn't a surprise that I wasn't in my room, in Cassian's pack.That was obvious.Wherever I was, it was dark, scary, smelly and the air felt lik

Maya's POVIt wasn't the smartest thing to talk to Cassian like that.But those few seconds that he stared at me, were more than enough for the maid to take a step back and increase the distance between her and him.However, even I knew that it didn't matter how much distance someone put between themselves and the Night Reaper.I was more than certain that he would cover it in less than a stride.A flash-step if I may call it that.And judging from all the rumors I heard about him, he wouldn't have hesitated to kill her.Or me,for that matter.But for those few seconds that he had his eyes on me, I was confused.The man that knew nothing but death and distraction, looked... confused.His expression changed, and I didn't know whether that was supposed to be a good thing, or not.I still felt the need to make sure he wouldn't kill the poor maid because of a simple mistake.For this, I had to gather enough courage and strike a conversation with him, with the hopes of coming to an agreeme

Maya's POV"Miss Maya?""Are you okay?" The voice snapped me from my thoughts.I had already stepped out of the pack house to go for the run, because I couldn't breathe right in there.Not after what Mirabelle told me.Cassian had ordered one of the guards in the pack house to be taken to the dungeons, tortured, and then his tongue cut off.Reason?Nothing big.Just that he might have been heard saying how beautiful my hair was.As much as he was right, and I thought that it wasn't a big deal, this didn't seem to matter when it came to the Night Reaper.He didn't want my name on anyone else's lips.Everyone around the pack house had come to learn about this, except for me.And that's because they were most likely trying to avoid me.It all made sense, with the weird stares that I was getting."I'm okay," I answered Mirabelle as I stared back at the house on top of the hill.I couldn't believe that even after pleading with Cassian that night, and telling him that no one had to be puni

Maya's POVTwelve guards.Within a week, eleven guards had been relieved of their duties from the day that I told Cassian to fire them instead of punishing them.In less than a week, most of those guards would have either been dead, missing a body part, or locked in the dungeons.Had I not told him about that alternative, Cassian would be taking down his men one at a time, and it didn't seem to bother me."I have enough men to kill because of you!" He had boasted.And he wasn't wrong.With so many allied packs under his command, he clearly had enough men to go through before the message was sent to every single one of the rest that would remain.I wasn't supposed to be stared at for long.Anything that he would consider an act of disrespect against me, would have been enough to send people to their graves.If I were to make any complaint, it would be looked into.The food was too hot or too cold, the entire kitchen staff would spend a week in the dungeons.If my clothes weren't cleane
