Jasmine's POV
This wasn't marriage, rather it was the definition of pure hell and bondage. I sat around the dinner table and watched as the clock ticked away, the wildlife outside sang comforting words to me, but the pain in my heart could not be cured. 2 am and he wasn't yet back, I couldn't help but worry as I was certain he left with no guards, I hated the fact that I was worried. Bonded to him by the goddess, married to him as a debt meant to be repaid when I give him a child, my heart longed for him as much as I hated him. For some reason tonight, I didn't want this routine of waiting up, I desperately wanted to forget. I dragged myself up to the wine cellar and picked up wine with the highest amount of wolfsbane to get me drunk. My hands found my phone and I dialed his number before stopping, calling the Alpha was useless because the only thing I'd get in return would be insulted as always. It's only been a year since I was sold off to a mate who treated me no less than a rag, and it already felt like an eternity. A tear slipped down my eye. I immediately wiped it away and laughed softly to myself, he didn't deserve my tears anymore. I chugged down the wine before wiping my lips, “Happy anniversary Alpha Tyler” I mocked myself before taking down another gulp. As I carelessly chugged down the wine, I watched idly as the candle slowly died down, and I was left in darkness to wallow in self-pity and hatred. What was I even expecting? Today was our anniversary, but here I sat in the darkness, with the man I called my husband nowhere in sight. What was I even expecting? Gifts? Surprise? A night of lovemaking? Yes! It wasn't too much to want, but it was all a figment of my imagination, as there was no doubt that he was probably fucking around with Emily. I chuckled sadly to myself, and threads of jealousy and bitterness began weaving themselves in my heart. I was nothing but a doormat here, it was almost as though I didn't exist, well only when he returned home drunk in a stupor and decided to grace me with insults. Deep down, the nineteen-year-old girl who was separated from her family and friends with no choice longed for excitement. I wanted something more, something different from staying home all day, eating, sleeping, and reading all the books I’ve read in the library, at nightfall I'd await my husband who doesn't even regard me, the next day the same routine followed. Staggered footsteps brought me back to reality and my eyes slowly moved towards the door. My husband was home and as expected, the stench of alcohol greeted me even before I sighed at him, drunk to a stupor. Sounds of glass shattering followed shortly after him. For the first time in a year, I decided not to welcome my husband back, but rather watch as this whole night would play out. “Jas” he slurred out as though he were expecting me. I stayed mute and watched the feared Alpha Tyler make a fool out of himself. This comic show was what the universe has used to bless me. “Jasmine my beloved wife,” he said softly, “I'm so sorry” My heart skipped, that was new and unexpected. “I love you, forgive me baby” he added. “Jas, I know you are here, and you know I don't like being ignored baby” This time there was an underlying warning tone beneath his course causing me to shiver. “Alpha” I muttered under my breath. As I helped him to the bedroom, he kept on muttering useless apologies and promises to be better. It almost had me wondering if all these apologies were for me because the Alpha Tyler I was familiar with hated me to the core. I helped him undress and just as I was about to go, he pulled me back and flipped us over. Not even giving me time to digest our position, his lips found mine. I didn't want this, at least not when we were both intoxicated. I struggled against his hold and forced my mouth shut, but his desperate lips bit mine open, while my struggles didn't even move him. “I want you so much, baby” I heard him say and disgust danced all over my body. “Tyler please” I pleaded, but it seemed to grow his desire and his hands found my breast and ripped open my top, causing me to cry out. “Isn't this what you want?” He mocked as his fingers found and slipped into my thighs. I felt like screaming no, but it didn't matter, he was going to have his way either way, so why bother? Never had imagined that my first time would be this way. I lay helpless on the bed as he had his way with me like a ravenous beast. Tears slipped out and this time I let it, “Why the hell are you crying?!” He growled while thrusting in and out of me roughly. “Isn't this what you were brought to do, you are my wife, my baby-making factory, and nothing more, so wipe those tears and enjoy your Alpha fucking you like the slut you are” His lips captured mine once more without any struggles from me, I was already weak and tired, so there was no use fighting him as he was right. I was his baby-making factory. His grunts and moans filled the room as he neared his climax before finally collapsing on my body. “Do you even care one bit?” I sobbed before adding, “Your apologies were they even real or just a coy to tear open my panties?” His snores answered me and I rolled him away before bursting into tears. On this fateful night, I had hoped for something different from the normal routine, and I got it. I tried crying myself to sleep as pain soured through every part of my body. This was my hell!Jasmine POV“What the…” I heard Tyler grunt as his naked back came in contact with my cold skin, causing me to flinch.He muttered some inaudible things before letting out a soft sigh, and I released the breath I was holding.I spent last night soaking the pillows with tears and had little sleep as my hysteria was over the top because he had his arms around me throughout the night.Never had I shed so many tears in my life, but they just couldn't stop flowing and to top it all, in between my legs ached.“Hmm, I could get used to this” he whispered groggily before pulling my naked self closer to him and I felt my cheeks redden to my displeasure.Worry that had once clouded my thoughts dispersed into thin air as his grip tightened around my waist.“You had refused me yesterday but here you are, baby girl in my arms, I did say I was irresistible” he whispered, tracing kisses on my neck.“Emily baby, how….”I jerked away from him in shock and watched as his eyes widened upon using his but
Alpha Tyler's POVOne thing I hated was not being in control and the only way I had maintained my position as an Alpha all these while was by feeding off the power, control gave me.Jasmine was making me lose all restraints in a blink of an eye and making me act out, which was very much unlike me.I did it successfully, pretended like she didn't exist, like she wasn’t my Luna, and I wasn’t seeing what they do to her for a year.The plan was to wear her out, but she seemed so strong until she played her master card last night.Waking up to see her blood and having no memory of what had happened triggered and angered me. For a second, I felt like I wasn’t in control and It turned on all the wrong emotions. Her silence and pretense gave her motives away a long time ago, but never had I imagined that she’d be this devious.It seemed as though a switch was pulled overnight, from seducing me shamelessly to bullying Emily, definitely in a jealous rage.I shut my thoughts as her soft voice h
Jasmine's POVIts been two weeks since I left and, all I had done was play an amusing the game of hide and seek with Alpha Tyler's guards. Funny how insecure the borders of the pack were on the night I had fled and a few days later, I was being hunted as though I left with something important.The willpower they were using to track me down was surprising and frustrating. It made my simple plan of running and settling in any pack I was accepted hard because I had to keep changing location constantly.To make things worse for me, I felt my body system change drastically, almost as though I had caught a fever alongside the way, but my determination not to return kept me going. A few times my curiosity got the most of me and I lingered around trying to get any information that would make me understand why he was after me. There was no way he was in regret, rather I was sure he wanted me back so he could punish me for taking a leap of faith. As the days passed, whatever illness I was do
Jasmine’s POVI felt the sun glaring on my face and I turned to my side painfully. “You are awake.” an unfamiliar voice said in the background. My eyes were still shut so I didn't know where I was. All I knew was that it was unfamiliar and it wasn't the pack that I just ran out from.“Where could this be? Could I have ran into another trap?” I asked myself in fear and suddenly remembered what I heard before I passed out.I could clearly hear someone calling me mate. It might have been a mistake though. I was already weak and losing my mind so I must have misheard it. I just left a toxic pack, mate and husband and the moon goddess will give me another mate immediately? That's not possible.I tried every means to convince myself that it wasn't but I was interrupted when my eyes was opened gently and a touch was shone inside my eyes.“You seem okay. Why don't you open your eyes and sit up now? You don't have to be scared. You are safe.” the female doctor to me softly but I didn't do it
Jasmine’s POV“I understand that you are confused right now but don't you think that it's quite appalling to talk to me in that manner?” Alex asked me and I looked down .I left my tongue slip and forgot that I was in his pack and not the other way around. “I am sorry about that. I was just shocked.” I apologized.“That’s fine. I won’t be rejecting you. You need to get that thought out of your head first.” He said to me and i clenched my fist on thr sheets on the bed tightly. The nurse looked at my hand but said nothing. She looked at me in pity and I hated that.“Leave us alone.” He said to the nurse at once when he noticed that she wasn’t making any move to leave us alone.She left and it was just us in the room. I looked everywhere but him and he sat on the chair beside my bed.“You are my mate.” He said to me softly this time around.“I am pregnant Alpha.” I said to him.“Call me Alex not Alpha.” He said to me.“Let’s leave that. Do you really want raise another man’s child? You m
Alex’s POV I let her be and went to the pack house to confirm if my suspiciouns were true. I wouldn't just let anyone into my pack like that. Even if she is my mate it not. The door to my office opened and my Beta walked inside. “Alpha you called for me” James said to me and I motioned for him to sit down and he did. “You must have heard by now that I brought a girl to the pack.” I said to him and he nodded with a smile. “It was foreign since you have not done that before but I trust you. Is there something you want to tell me?” he asked me. “That's my mate. She is my mate. After waiting for her for quite a long time, she was served to me in a platter of gold.” I said to him. “I wouldn't say that. She looked almost dead to me.” he said to me and I glared at him playfully. “You want to know if she is a spy or not right?” he asked me and I nodded. There was no need explaining everything to James. He was very quick to catch onto something. “She doesn't even want to be my mate.” I
Alex’s POV I turned around and saw Jasmine and I was surprised but didn't let it appear on my face. What was she doing out of bed right now? She was meant to be in the Pack hospital for an extra day so that she will checked properly. “What are you doing here?” I asked her ignoring her previous question. “I wasn't feeling very comfortable on the hospital bed and I am okay. There is nothing to check again. I'm sorry for barging into your office like this.” she said to me and I nodded. “It's fine. It wasn't closed anyways.” I told her and she nodded and came inside fully. “Are you sure you are okay? We can always go back to the pack hospital,” u said to her. “I am sure that I'm fine. I won't die yet don't worry. I have already been through hell to die just from this.” she told me and I chuckled. “But it's different now. You are pregnant Jasmine. You shouldn't let that thought leave your head. You are now three in one. It won't be easy that's why I am here.” I told her fans she look
Jasmine’s POVAlex took the paper from my hand and I could tell that it was something that affected him from the look he had on his face. I didn’t ask a question though. I didn’t want to get involved in anything deep.“Are you done?” He asked me once he noticed that I wasn’t eating anymore and I nodded.“I don’t have much appetite again. That will be all. Thank you for this.”“It’s my pleasure.” He smiled and then I cleared my throat as I was about to tell him something. I was sure that he was going to not agree but I will make sure that he does.“Do you want to say anything?” He asked me when I opened my mouth and then closed it back.“I want to work,” I said and he opened his mouth his shock. I felt his eyes go over to my flat tummy. My bump wasn’t showing her but I knew that he was going to use my pregnancy as an excuse.“But you can’t. You are not in any condition to stress yourself much.” He told me and I rolled my eyes.I wasn’t dying. I was just pregnant. What was the big deal
