Rosalind My chest burned as I took back control from Celeste and ran as fast as my legs could take me away from my room and to the where the dungeon was. It felt like a dream, watching Celeste take control and deceive Shawn into thinking I wanted him. I shivered, as if I would ever want that disgusting monster. “Hurry, Rosalind. Once he’s done and he needs to come out, it would clear off.” Apparently I had the power to seduce men into doing my bidding, but it wears off when they know I’m up to something. Good to know that’s one of the things Shawn desperately wants. Celeste said he could use it to move people to do his bidding, and I began to fear again. My heart roared in my chest as we approached the dungeon, and the two guards who guarded the building growled as they saw me coming. “What are you doing here? Turn back before you regret it.” The one on the left growled and goosebumps erupted on my skin. “Let’s switch Rosa.” Celeste ordered, and immediately I resided to the
Rosalind Celeste has been quiet all day. I could feel the anger and self hatred coming from her, and no matter how much I tried to convince her that she did her best, it didn’t work. It was easy being strong for someone when it meant ignoring your own reality. Today was the last part of the ritual. Which meant this night was the night. The night my powers would be taken from me and Celeste would be dead. She wouldn’t be able to handle my powers being gone. That was her essence. I sat on the edge of my bed, staring out of the window. It was a rather quiet day. I pleaded with Shawn to spare Chris and James, but he kicked me instead. He said he was going to show me. I shivered. I do not want to know what’s going to happen. Celeste wasn’t answering me, and I’ve been forced to… surrender. Give it up. The dreams of having my own life. Of defeating Shawn and Lola. I had to give up everything, including my dreams of having a family with James, and our little kids running
RosalindThe maids dragged me down to the hall, the deafening noise of the pack members piercing through the air as their Alpha finished his ritual. My body vibrated with both fear and cold as I was dragged to the alter, and all the pack members roared in excitement as I was pushed to where Shawn’s body laid on the slab, Lola marking him with a substance that seemed too similar to blood, and I swallowed. From the corner of my eye, I saw James, tied down to the floor, his eyes screwed shut to numb the pain he was going through.“James,” I screamed, but the crowd yelled in disapproval. A guard kicked him hard in his gut and he yelled in pain, causing me to sub, but no amount of sobbing made these people care about me.If it did anything, it made them even more excited.Tonight was really happening.“Bring the bearer of the power.” Lola commanded in a scary tone, her eyes black with power and I shivered. That wasn’t Lola anymore. A hand pushed me from behind and I stumbled towards her.
James For days on end, I struggled against the silver cuffs I was bonded with, my body lashed with whips over and over. For days I begged the moon goddess for a chance to save Rosalind and Chris, even if that meant dying. I never begged Shawn for anything. It was a big insult on an alpha to beg another alpha, and it would mean I was no better than an omega. I couldn’t have that, but all I wanted was my wolf back. The screams coming from Rosalind did that for me. My wolf, who I thought would never come back came with full force and fury, and the fear in Shawn’s eyes as I broke free of the chains that put me down for days easily would have made me smile if all I wanted wasn’t his death. I wanted to kill everyone. But Shawn? Oh I’ll kill him last. I’ll enjoy it just as much as he enjoyed my torture. He was about to mate with my mate in my presence. He was going to beg for mercy and not receive it. My wolf, Aries let out a loud roar, and leaped towards Shawn who was attempting to
Rosalind It’s been three days, and James hasn’t responded to treatment. The healers said it was a result of all the beatings and wolf’s bane put into his system by Shawn, and the amount of energy it took his wolf to come back out. Chris on the other hand has woken up, and has been a great help in ruling the pack because I couldn’t. I didn’t want to leave Chris alone. Lola has been nowhere to be found, and it didn’t seat well with me that she hasn’t tried anything, but I couldn’t do anything about it. All I could do was wait for James to wake up.I took his fingers in mine and sighed. A memory came into my mind and I sighed, shaking my head. My biggest problem used to be that James didn’t love me, but now here we are, barely defeated the one person I trusted in my life and the other person I trusted on the run.But he was here, and this time, I was sure James loved me. He hasn’t said it, but I could feel it.I placed a kiss on his forehead, “Please wake up.”He was healing very
Rosalind It’s really hard to describe the feeling erupting in my chest as the nurses pushed me away from the hospital room, Chris grabbing my hand and pulling me out, comforting me softly as I tried to run back into the room. The doctors filed into the room and I held Chris tightly, crying into his chest. These past few days have been too much, and the one thing I need was James, who was in a coma because of that bastard Shawn. “I’m going to murder Shawn!” I growled, Celeste talking through me as I pulled away from Chris, but he held me back before I could go far. “Calm down, Rosa. James is going to be fine, I promise.” He held me tight while I tried to calm my sobbing. If it was not because of Shawn’s greed, I wouldn’t have been here. James wouldn’t have been here. “He deserves to die! He, Lola, everyone!” I sobbed, and Chris softly patted my head as we stood in the hall. I cried my heart out, and Chris didn’t seem to bother about the way I wet his clothes with my tears. “
Rosalind Immediately I raced out of the hall, rushing to the room. I had no idea what to do. I had no idea what the first thing to do was. Find a donor, Chris was on that already. Could James have a family I had no idea about? The wedding was filled with people who were all business owners or billionaires. James had no family. Only Grandpa. And that was out of the options I had. But I couldn’t just sit down and hope, I had to find out if there was a family member I didn’t know about. Touching my face to reduce the redness, I stormed out of my room and headed to the throne room where Chris was with the subjects, checking the details of the pack members. “Any luck?” I asked as I went to stand beside him, peaking over his shoulder to see the documents. He let out a sigh. “Nothing, Rosalind. The blood type is so rare. It’s almost impossible to find.” My grip on his shoulder tightened, and he softly placed his on mine. “Don’t worry Rosabear. We would find a donor. I have extend
Rosalind Philip was hesitant about our plan. His words, she was a selfish and angry woman made Chris even more determined to meet her and I rolled my eyes at his attitude. “She can’t resist my charms. I’ll get that pent up anger out of her in just one night.” Philip shook his head as he got ready for the trip while I sighed. “No touching her, Chris. She’s not to be played with. We want to beg her for her help, remember?” He smirked, “nothing says you can’t do both.” The doctors finished healing Philip, and he got up, his color better than it was yesterday evening when he was just fresh out of prison. “Trust me, Chris. Not even your boyish charm and handsomeness can make her change her mind.” His eyes flashed with pain and I rose my eyes at that. Chris seemed to notice the same sign I noticed and snorted. “Don’t worry lover boy. I have what you don’t have. I,” he pointed to himself. “Have never gotten turned down, and I don’t give up either.” I rolled my eyes and Ph
