The Alpha of the Blue Moon Pack, the East’s most potent pack leader, was infamous for his ruthlessness and hatred of the impolite. According to legend, he murdered most of his servants, and his reign was marked by bloodshed.
Nothing was too much for a man to do to ensure that those around him obeyed his every command. To him, it is preferable to slaughter the weak and bathe in their blood beneath the light of a harvest moon.His wolf was said to be a monster with red eyes that glowed in the dark, watching its victims before tearing them apart.And that killing machine will take her?This idea frightened Emily; however, even if she begged not to let them give her or more to sell her, she knew that her father had already made his decision. And to him, she was just his useless daughter.Suppose she will use her remaining strength, but who knows where it will put her. All she needs to do is to obey. She had enough of crying and begging.Maybe this is what she is destined for—to be enslaved.It was her choice to let them put their hands on her or not. But for five years, it was the path she took. She did everything for her father, but it turns out that amidst her efforts, he wasn’t pleased. And who knows what will be her fate in the hands of the ruthless Alpha?Maybe even worse. Now, she’s twenty-five; she will be a slave to a new master again. For how long… again? Five? Ten? Or worst, lifetime or until her death.“Can you move faster—what the fuck?!” Cole uttered when Emily slapped him out of shock.While staring at her small cabinet, she was in deep thought and didn’t know that he was beside him.Emily looked at her but never uttered an apology, making Cole angry.“How could you—”“I didn’t know—” she didn’t finish her words when Cole grabbed her jaw and pushed her towards her small bed, making her slump into it.Fear lingered in her eyes when Cole started to take out his shirt.“Don’t you fucking scream, or else I will fucking beat the hell out of you,” he warned, making Emily press her lips together.She remained and let Cole hover on her and let him lift her blouse, exposing her cleavage.She saw how Cole’s eyes twinkled in lust when he saw it. This is not the first time that he has dared to touch her.“Damn, you grew beautifully, Emily,” he said and lowered his lips into her chest, but Emily gathered all her strength and kicked Cole in between, then pushed him back, slumping him on the ground, clenching in pain.Emily then took that moment to get up, grabbed the white dress on the side, and rushed towards the bathroom.She heard Cole’s loud growl, cursing her, but Emily sighed in relief when she escaped from his evil intentions.Emily leaned on the door, retook a deep breath, and sighed to calm herself. She was still slightly trembling.‘That was close,’ she thought.Then suddenly, she heard a knock on the bathroom door, making her jerk forward, and her heart thumped fast.“Fuck you, Emily!”“Oh, fuck yourself, Cole!” she exclaimed, making her gasp in surprise. She didn’t think of saying it aloud, but the words slipped out of her mouth.Cole banged the door even louder, curing simultaneously when suddenly, Amanda’s voice was heard.“What the hell is going on?! Cole?!”Emily heard Cole’s devilish chuckle. “The bitch just kicked me on the balls!” he said, anger filling his voice.“What?!”Emily heard Amanda’s heels hitting the floor and knew that it was taking the direction of the bathroom. Indeed, she was right when Amanda started to call her name.“How could you seduce my son, you slut! Get the hell out of there!” she roared.Emily let out a scoff. Seduce his son?‘Seriously? What made her think that I can do that?’ She thought.Emily ignored Amanda’s rants and started to undress. She winced when she felt her body screams in pain. Her body calls to give up, but her mind doesn’t want to.Since this will be her last day here—she’s not dumbed not to know it, then at least she will let herself become strong just for once, in front of her family—in front of her father.After a couple of minutes, not minding Amanda talking non-stop outside the bathroom, she continued to fix herself.“Move your ass out of there, whore! The guests are here, and we must not keep them waiting!” Amanda blurted.“And you, Cole, get your hands out of her and go downstairs. The Beta of Blue Moon Pack is waiting,” she continued.After a few moments, Emily heard the door open and closed, signifying that her evil stepmother had left.Emily took a deep breath to calm herself before walking out of the bathroom. Soon as she stepped out, she met Cole’s eyes, burning with anger. But she managed to look at him in disgust.“Luck will eventually run out, Emily,” he said. He dragged her by the jaw and pinned her on the wall.Emily saw her reflection in his lusty eyes and touched her white dress. She clenched her jaw as she pierced her gaze into Cole’s. She grasped the side of her dress. And when she looked to the side, she saw their reflection in a lengthy mirror—Cole, who was holding her on the jaw while his free hand leaned on the wall, and herself, who saw a different her.The straps of her dress revealed her soft shoulder and long jet-black hair. The embroidered bodice enhanced her slim figure, although she just saw it on the side; then, suddenly, she took a glimpse of her necklace—her mother’s necklace. It came from her father, and her mother passed it to her.Her father dared to take it from her, but she begged for it. She received an endless beating because of it, but it was the only thing she had—that came from her family.And at that moment, she knew she missed her mother so badly.Emily looked at Cole and met his sharp gaze. “Get the hell out of me,” she said in a calm, stern voice, making Cole’s eyes widen.“Playing strong, are we?”She gritted her teeth and clenched her fist.Cole smirked. “Don’t think you can’t be mine, Emily,” he said and let go of her.Emily laughed, which totally surprised Cole.“There’s nothing funny, bitch!” he said and was about to raise his hand when she spoke again.“You can’t do that. They’re here,” she warned.She felt like she had overcome her fear by talking to Cole like this for the first time. The feeling is different yet satisfying on her side. At least.Cole formed a sly smirk. “Do you think I’m afraid of him?” he asked.Emily smirked, and it was unusual for her to do it, but seeing the bafflement in Cole’s eyes, she wanted to give more.“You know what. I can foresee what will happen to you when we step out of this room.”When deep inside, she doesn’t. She just wants to try if it will work for him.However, Cole just laughed and dragged her out of the room.“Stop talking nonsense, slut,” he said, gritting his teeth in anger. But with the idea that the guests are here, he can’t beat Emily.While walking towards the dining hall, Cole suddenly smacked her butt, making her come to a halt.She turned to fac
“What happened, Dillon?” inquired the woman wearing a white lab coat.“She hasn’t stopped crying since we parted ways with their pack. Then she passed out. Her body is far too frail. You need to check on her, and she needs to be healed immediately,” Dillon said as he placed the unconscious Emily on the white bed.The woman approached Emily’s body and then shook her head.“This isn’t good, Dillon.”“Do your best to heal her quickly; the Alpha does not understand the concept of patience,” Dillon warned as he turned around.“How come her body is covered in bruises?”“She tripped on the floor,” Dillion replied flatly. After a brief moment of silence, the woman chuckled.“Pardon?”Dillon gave a sly grin. “It is a fabrication perpetrated by Miss Emily’s stepmother.”“Did they treat her like an animal? She is the daughter of an alpha. How heinous are they?” Even if their Alpha is far more than cruel, the woman is not fond of slavery.“The Alpha is significantly more lethal.”“Then she is not
Emily was perplexed by the sudden pause in the conversation.Lilac appeared to be in a bad mood because her cheerful and upbeat demeanor had utterly vanished.And the only difference between Dillon and Millie is that Dillon is standing up straight as he always does, whereas Millie, who was previously calm and easygoing, has adopted more professionalism, standing as if she is waiting for a command.Then Emily became aware of approaching footsteps. She pulled the blanket with her trembling hands, and for the first time, she was able to accomplish what her mind desired. She was slowly pulling it up when the door opened.A tall man walked inside. He has fair skin and jet-black hair and towered over everyone. His jawline was defined and emphasized the masculine characteristics he possessed. She had never seen a man move quite like him, gracefully but with an unforgiving glint hidden behind his piercing blue eyes.Even though he was across the room, the aura surrounding him demonstrated the
Emily was aware of her action. Calling out for the powerful Alpha just like that may lead to a punishment. However, she’s the girl who was used to it.She needs to find something. She has to know something, and she will only get those answers from their Alpha.There's no way that her father would trade her just like that. She understands about the money but there has to be a deeper reason. And she knows her role is to be her new master’s slave. She would serve him until he said so. But for how long?“I-I’m sorry…” she whispered.“A-Alpha.” It’s a little bit hard for her to say that title. Knowing the fact that she’s facing the most powerful and ruthless Alpha of all.“As your new slave. I… I will do my best to serve you. Just let me go once you don’t need my service anymore.”Emily did her best to catch his attention. However, he remained immobile. She couldn’t see his reaction because he never turned back. All she could see was his broad back.She was on her knees in the hospital bed
Set free?A well-known ruthless Alpha king like him will set her free?Emily has doubts about it. She can’t trust anyone even if she finds him attractive.“Look after her, Lilac. I’ll follow him,” Dillon said before he exited the room.When he left, the thick atmosphere loosened, and she could only see the bright smiles of Lilac and Millie.“We will do our best to help you,” Lilac stated. “At the same time, you have to cooperate with us, okay?” she flashed a smile at Emily.She pressed Emily’s hand and said, “you don’t have to be afraid. We’re not what you believe we are. Rumors about the Alpha might be true. However, you knew rumors will not always tell the exact truth,” she added.Emily nodded.“Alright, please get some food, Lilac for her, and I will run some tests on the lab,” Millie said.Emily thought she couldn’t flash a smile after the encounter with their Alpha, but the two women with her kept the vibe back, and she somehow felt relaxed.“T-Thank you,” her voice was gentle ye
Days passed so swiftly, and Emily staying in the four corners of the hospital kept her even better. She thought she couldn’t make it, but Millie and Lilac happily helped her with her fastest recovery. It’s a must. She was aware that they were preparing her until the Alpha claimed her.Emily thought about these many times during the past few days. She keeps asking herself if she will do it or not. Part of her doesn’t want to, but she’s also afraid of him. What if he kills her if she disobeys?For a moment, she also wished to have a peaceful life—she was seeking her freedom.If only her mother had been there beside her, things would be different.She’s looking for one reason to push through, and when she meets Lilac and Millie, it seems they gave her hope. They’re too kind for her. It’s been a long time since she met genuine people who show care and love for her.“I’m sorry if you have to endure all of this, Emily.” Millie’s voice pulled her back to reality.Emily let out a smile—a brig
The sun glimmered on the horizon, lighting up the blue sky; clouds were like dots in it, giving a perfect scenery. The wind swirls, making the trees sway as if they’re hailing Emily as their Queen. The expansive lawn was filled with green grasses as if it were pulling you to lay on it. A bed of different kinds of flowers surrounds the royal house.Emily was delighted to see that the place of the well-known ruthless Alpha doesn’t describe who he is. The place is totally a royal one.He is the king, after all.Emily was brought to the royal house three days before the deadline. She was guided towards her room—the Queen’s room.Her room was indeed made of unique creations. Details were added by hand, ensuring its shapes and every part. The bed, bedside table, chest, and wardrobe… it’s all inside. The room is spacious, boasting a large bed, and the wardrobe is of such dimensions that she assumes everything fits comfortably inside. The rich color of the walls reminds her that she’s not in
Days went by so fast, and Emily did her best to follow Millie’s instructions. Amidst the missing piece in her heart, she still continued to move on. She tried to forget everything about her past. Though it will take time, it will eventually vanish like bubbles into thin air sooner.At this moment, the deadline that the Alpha had given them is long overdue another week.Day by day, she’s getting better… physically. Her body is slowly coming back. A healthy body when her mother is taking good care of her.When silence covered her room, her thoughts traveled to the Alpha’s whereabouts.‘Certainly, you’re missing him,’ Leia spoke through mind link again.Emily shook her head, walked towards the window, and sat on the single couch. This has been her favorite spot since she was brought into the royal house.Looking at the view outside keeps her calm. Sometimes, she’s staring at the vast space outside, watching the trees dance, or listening to the birds as they serenade her, comforting her w
