It's been four years. Four years of constant torture and sexual abuse. By now, I was already used to it and nothing could really surprise me anymore. There is absolutely no way for me out of this world of torture.
I'm stuck and even though a part of me still hurts, I'm mostly numb.It was my twentieth birthday yet I was still going through this hell.I stood right in front of Alpha Lucas' room and I stalled. I knew what awaited me and I knew there was no escaping it yet I stalled.I finally knocked on his door and I heard his voice, urging me to come in. I took a calming breath and turned the knob before stepping inside.I curtsied."Your Maje-" the words hung halfway in my throat as my eyes met his and my heart beat quickened.I felt tingles run down my spine as he turned around and looked at me, his face mirroring the same shock mine did.I gasped unwillingly as we both whispered."Mate" we said, uncontrollably.No, no, no. Of all people in the world, not him.I couldn't move, it felt like someone had poured cold water all over me. I wanted to scream my lungs out.He dropped the book he was holding on his table and rolled his eyes.I swallowed and bowed my head."Strip" he ordered and I bit my lip as his words actually did something to me this time. I quickly removed my clothes till I was butt naked.Lucas hated slow people.He stared at me, eyeing me from head to toe distastefully but the bulge in his pants said otherwise.He motioned to me."Come here" he said and I walked towards him, my breasts bouncing in the process.As soon as I was within arm's reach, he pulled me closer and grabbed my ass.He whispered."Fuck" he said it like he was struggling to control himself.I felt my area grow wet with pleasure. I hated how my body betrayed me. I hated this man but right now, I wanted him so bad.He walked around me and stopped behind me."Bend over" he commanded and I did, my hands immediately gripping the bed.I heard him unzip his trousers and he pressed his bulge against me and I let out an uncontrollable moan.Fuck. I had never moaned for him before. Never. I hated myself and I wanted to cry so bad but I dared not.He slapped my ass before putting his dick in my pussy all of a sudden.I gasped and moaned at the same time. He rolled his waist, adjusting himself in me and the movement sent waves of pleasure through my entire body.Then all of a sudden, he started ramming himself rapidly into me and I could not help the cries of pleasure that escaped my lips. I hated it so much, I hated how much my own body betrayed me. Tears pricked my eyes as he kept on ramming himself into me.I focused on the pain to escape the pleasure. I forced myself to stay quiet, I didn't want to give him the satisfaction of my pleasure. I bit my lips so hard, I drew blood as I forced my body to feel nothing. It wasn't something that was hard for me to do. I did everytime he had sex with me.I could tell I had a different effect on him as well. His suppressed moans filled the air as he reached his climax. He hurriedly withdrew and came all over my ass accompanied by a relieving moan from him.He slapped my ass again and pulled me up by my hair, my back flushing against his chest."If you tell even one soul about it, I'll feed you to my men" he said and I swallowed in fear before he let me go."Now, get out" he said and I hurriedly picked my clothes, trying to wear them as fast as possible on my way out.I wasn't stupid. I knew what he meant. No one must know that we were mated. I knew that was how it would play out, but it still hurt a lot.I took a deep, calming breath once I was outside his room and adjusted my clothes properly.I quickly ran to my room in the maid's quarters and cleaned myself up before I hurried back to the palace kitchen to get his breakfast. I ignored the throbbing in my thigh as I finally made it to the kitchen.I tried my best to ignore the snarky comments I got from other maids. Most of them hated me and the rest just ignored me.I hurriedly served his breakfast and carried the tray back to his room.I placed it on his table and left while he ignored me throughout.I realized I was going to be less busy for the next hour and tried to look for Mia, my best and only friend. I trusted her with my life.I went into the garden I was almost sure she would be in and I was right because I found her there."Mia!" I called her name and she turned to me and waved her hand in the air, her hair bouncing around her shoulders as she urged me to come join her where she sat at the edge of the cast field that oversaw a lake.I ran to her and sat down beside her."Hey bestie. What's up?" She asked and I plucked a stranger of grass from the field and fiddled with it, my mind roaming back to the realization I had a few minutes ago.I did not consider not telling her because she was my best friend and I told her everything."I found my mate" I said and her eyes widened in shock and part excitement."Really?! Who is it?" She asked and I sighed sadly, tears pricking my eyes."Hey hey, are you okay?" She asked as she moved closer to me and put her hands on my shoulders in support."It's him. Alpha Lucas is my mate" I said and she gasped, her initial smile fading into a deep frown.I shook my head as hot tears fell down my cheeks."Of all people, Mia. Of all people! The universe just had to screw me over. Again." I said as sobs racked my body. She immediately pulled me into a hug, as she smoothed my hair with her hand."Hey, hey. It's okay" she cooed as she tried to calm me down.When I was eventually calm, she looked at me and smiled sadly."It's okay, we'll figure this out" she said and I nodded, trying to be hopeful.I felt much better. She always managed to make me feel that way.I sighed as we both lay down in the grass and relaxed again. I closed my eyes and tried to forget all my present problems.Days had gone by with the usual routine. Wake up, get abused, get his food, get abused again and the cycle continues. The only good part of my day constantly remained Mia. I checked the clock situated on the kitchen wall and I knew it was time to go to Lucas' room again. I sighed as I washed my hands and left the kitchen, leaving the other duties to the rest. I made my way to his room, passing by guards on the way there. Finally, I got to his door and just before I knocked, I heard moaning. I frowned as I pressed my ear against the door to be sure I heard right. My heart hammered against my chest as I cracked the door open slightly. I could not help the gasp that escaped my lips from the sight that met my eyes. I watched as Mia's curls bounced on and off her naked back as Lucas pounded her from behind and her moans filled my ears. They both froze and turned towards the door but I quickly got out of sight and began to run away from the room, as tears pricked my eyes. I was al
I honestly don't know what I was expecting. For him to magically fall in love with me and make me his Luna?I wasn't even sure which was worse. The rejection or the betrayal. Was that even supposed to be compared?Of course, the betrayal took the cake. My heart and mind still couldn't fathom the hurt I felt from Mia's betrayal. It was really hard to process.I sighed, painfully as I forced my feet to take me further towards the royal kitchen. The pain I felt in my ribs from the impact was consistent and it made it hard to breathe properly. It felt like he had broken something when he kicked my ribs. As I made my way to the kitchen, I was walking down a long corridor when someone suddenly pulled me to the side. I yelped from the sudden force and the pain it brought about and I almost screamed from shock when a warm hand wrapped around my mouth. My eyes finally met his. Beta Carlos. I let out a breath of relief from the revelation that it was just him. Beta Carlos, tall, handsome,
Weeks had gone by and although I was feeling much better now, the full ache remained to remind me of the brutality of Lucas. As if that wasn't enough, he still made sure to have sex with me every day. In a way I was glad he rejected me. I was glad all I felt was pain all over again with no single ounce of pleasure. I hated him so much. He was my own personal hell on earth. I thought about Mia and how I've actively avoided her since the incident. Or maybe, she was the one avoiding me. I was finally ready to confront her. I wanted answers and I would not find peace until I got them. So, I was currently searching for her. I checked the field but she was not there and I rounded the palace walls in search of her. Familiar blonde locks appeared in my sight and I almost smiled. I sighed in defeat as my heart ached. I was about to call her name when I realized she was not alone and reflexively, I hid from them.I peeped to see who she was with when I realized the person was wearing a c
I got dragged to the feet of Lucas. I shivered as the guards threw me to the floor, right at his feet, before they moved back. I swallowed in fear as he towered above me. I dared not look up at him but I could feel the heat of the familiar irritated glare. "How many crimes did you commit this time, little lamb?" He asked and I shook with fear, barely taking a second before I answered him. Lucas hated slow people. I didn't even think about the question enough before I answered. "Two, Your Majesty" I said and he laughed before he suddenly went silent. I was about to crane my head up when I heard the sickening tearing of my own skin. He had whipped me and it caught me so off guard, I shrieked in pain. "Tsk, tsk. You forgot rule number one" he said as he whipped me again and I stifled a groan as tears streamed down my face. I was not caught off guard this time and I was very much used to this. "Good girl," he said."Now, let me ask you again. How many crimes did you commit this time?
I was hanging by a thread by this point. All I could see was blood. My dress was even more torn. I was bleeding from different parts of my body. I struggled to stand from the loss of blood. Lucas laughed at the sight in front of him. I could hear genuine happiness from the way he sounded and soon enough, Mia's laugh joined in. She had also come to watch my demise. The wolves were vicious, angry and I was the perfect prey for them. They rounded me again and one of them lunged for me and I dodged it but another one jumped on me from behind and its teeth sunk into my arm. I screamed in pain and I tried to shake it off. I raised the sharp branch I was holding and stuck it in its side. It let out a loud welp and jumped off me, tearing off some skin in the process. I winced in pain as I backed off from them. I couldn't hold up much longer but it was hard to just give up. I needed to live up to my father's mantra. Three of them lunged for me at once and I jumped out of the way but one
Every part of my body ached as I roused awake. I slowly forced my eyes open and I blinked to allow it to adapt to the lighting of my surroundings. When it finally did, I studied where I was. I was in a large room with white walls that stood out. I looked around the large room. Almost everything in it was white, from the vanity table to the white drapes which had golden swirls on it, to the bed spread. I groaned as I tried to sit up. I had never been on a bed like this before. It was soft and warm. Asides, the aches I felt all over my body, I felt peace. That was when it hit me. Was I dead? My head considered the possibility and it made so much sense since there was white everywhere. Oh goddess, I really was dead and I made it to the moon goddess. Happiness took over the pain and I instantly tried to get off of the bed. Bad idea. Was it supposed to hurt this much in the after life? Memories of the way I got hurt stormed my brain and I sighed. I could not believe I died in such a sha
The Deathshade Pack, was the most feared pack in the entire werewolf kingdom. Every single person feared the pack. Even Lucas. I heard stories about it as a kid, my father and stepmother used to tell lots of stories about how ruthless the pack was. There was also that one time that something happened in the Albertos and one of the guards mentioned something about The Deathshade Pack and the look on Lucas' face was clear as day. He was terrified of them. And now, I sat here, comfortably, about to get fed. I gulped in fear. What if it had poison in it? No, that did not make any sense. They can't save me just to kill me again. Maybe I was about to be a slave. Or maybe she was feeding me to be good meat for their rabid animals. My body trembled and I swallowed again. "Dea- Deathshade Pack?" I asked, hoping my ears heard wrong. My fear was audible so I wasn't surprised when she raised a brow. Then, a look of realization crossed her features. "Don't tell me you're scared" she said and
Kieran’s POV A smile tugged at my lips as I made my way down the stairs, taking them two at a time. I ran my fingers along the smooth surface of the banisters that curled downwards to the floor below. As I continued my descent, a small hum slid past my lips. I couldn't exactly tell why I was particularly happy, but that had been my life ever since I arrived at the Deathshade pack. Contrary to how I felt upon my arrival, I'd settled in quite well and just like Sabrina had said, it wasn't such a bad place to live after all. My eyes roamed the hallways as I got to the foot of the stairs. Bright lights hung up on each side cast a warm glow against the tiled floors, adding a glimt to the wallpaper. I had lost count of the number of times I'd gone through this hallway because it connected a major part of the rooms in the mansion, but no matter how many times I'd walked through here, I still found myself in total awe of the entire place. I was currently headed to the garden. Right no
