~ Nathan’s POVThe days were extremely long and the nights were even longer as I and my pack faced off against Damien and his pack in battle. Many of our men had been injured and we also had lost many people in the process. We both finally put a stop to the fight when none of us won. Damien returned back to his pack with his surviving people and I also did the same. The doctors came to attend to me but I insisted that they treated those that needed urgent care and attention. I noticed that I had not set my eyes on Albert during the fights and luckily I found him among the injured men receiving treatment. He was sleeping after getting shot and I was told that he needed to rest. I chastened him for not sticking close to him like I asked. Rather than apologizing, he had retorted that he had held his ground and had been just fine without me."I can clearly see that," I said, raising a sardonic eyebrow and nodding my chin towards his bandaged arm."You may have held your ground, Albert, bu
~Nathan's POV"We found her!" I looked up to see Jones standing in front of me, nearly bursting with excitement. “Where is she?” I asked. Jones explained to me that she was sold as a slave and I needed to hurry up before it got too late. I ran towards the port where she had been spotted and I was glad that I was on time. The people on the ship recognized me and wondered what I was doing and who I was searching for. I finally found Bella but she was already bleeding profusely. Jones and a few of my men were also on the ship, looking for both me and Bella. I lifted Bella who was almost on the verge of losing consciousness and then I was confronted by the men who had bought her, telling me that I had to pay them if at all I was going to take her with me. Just then, Jones saw me and then ran over to meet me. He was glad Bella was safe but then became worried when he saw the state she was in. He ordered one of the guards to get the car ready, led me to the car, and then left for the pala
ISABELLA'S POV......“I, Alpha Nathan Grayson of the blood moon pack, reject you, Isabella Walter, as my mate” Tears stained my face as I watched my mate make that heartbreaking declaration. Alpha Nathan was rejecting me as his mate. For a moment I had thought that my life was about to take a new, better turn. I had thanked the moon goddess for making me the Alpha's mate. I didn't realize I was crying until I tasted my own tears. My head was spinning the same as my world. Who was I kidding to think that a man as mighty as Alpha Nathan will accept me as his mate. He had hated me, the lowly omega, who is nothing less than a slave. An Omega for Alpha, Ha!WE CAN NEVER BE MATE! That was his exact word when I called him mate. My heart pubmed against my chest as I remembered the disgusting look he had on his face when he realized we were mated together and right there he had rejected me without thinking. He was saying something but I couldn't understand what he was saying because of the
NATHAN'S POV....."Alpha, I can't find her," My Beta said and I spun around to face him with an unreadable expression on my face. I clutched the wine glass I had in my hand tightly, trying to suppress the anger that was quickly surging through me. That's not what I had expected to hear. When I rejected the low life mate of mine last night, I had thought it's better to send her away before the pack would get to hear she was my mate. I never want that to happen because if I don't accept her, my people will think I am weak and I am sure rumors will start spreading. The neighboring packs might hear of it and launch an attack. Those sick and pathetic fools don't waste time in trying to bring me down. I took a handful of breaths and gulped the remaining content inside the glass and set it on the table."What do you mean you can't find her? Did she develop wings and flew away?" I asked, moving closer to him. I was not in to entertain jokes right now. Jones always makes jokes out of everyth
ISABELLA'S POV..... I slowly opened my eyes, not forgetting to groan in the process. My head was pounding and I couldn't seem to understand why. My vision was blurry so I waited a little while before I could make out my surroundings. The first thing I saw were all these strange symbols on a weirdly colored ceiling and I quickly closed my eyes again. I didn't know what they were but I'd definitely rather look at anywhere than them. It was too bright anyway. The second thing that caught my attention was a steady beeping sound coming from somewhere. I took a quick scan of my body and realized I wasn't wearing any clothes and I had no idea where I even was or what was going on. I closed my eyes again and I opened it when I realized how dried my throat was. The room was completely white with no other furniture except the bed I was lying on. it has me thinking maybe I was in heaven. But come to think of it, from what I have heard, I wouldn't be thirsty if I was in heaven which means
DAMIEN's POV.... I watched the little smile on her face slip away. I got the expression I wanted and I was satisfied seeing that she might not agree easily. Her heartbeat said so. I mean, what does she expect? That I saved her just to look at her or from the boundant of my heart. Now, I am no good person and in my entire life, I haven't done anyone good. Things I do, I make sure it will benefit me in every aspect. I am not called ruthless for a namesake, If she doesn't agree meekly, I will make her accept forcefully. I bent down to her sitting level and took her delicate hands into mine. They were soft and delicate looking."Is there a problem, my dear. Don't you wish to marry a powerful man like me?" Her gaze softened and she looked away shyly."I didn't say that. I am just shocked that you saved a total stranger and next thing, you are proposing marriage to her. A powerful Alpha like you? " Her words made me chuckle, which brought a blush to her cheeks."Why do you care? Can't a p
~ Isabella's POV~I struggled wildly as the guards dragged me off to the room I was staying in. They opened the door to see that there were a few maids in my room, seeming to be cleaning up the room.They relayed the Alpha's orders and left the room as the servants descended on me, pinning me to the bed."No!" I reared up and yelled in the face of the servants who held my hands down while the other ones grasped at my clothes.I heard tearing and began to whimper, "Please, please don't. Please don't do this, please help me."They eventually tore my clothes off me, and I remained still even as they continued to hold me down.My wolf whined and raged as my head rolled to one and tears began to slide down my eyes.Please Alpha Nathan, please save me, I thought desperately I heard footsteps coming towards the room. The footsteps grew louder, and I could hear the heavy, deliberate cadence of Alpha Damien's approach. The maids and servants working to strip me of my clothes froze, and their
~ Isabella's POVI didn't stop. I ran over to the door and pulled it open, only to be stopped by the guards who were standing outside the door. They grabbed my arms and hauled me back in as if I weighed nothing.They dragged me over to kneel in front of Alpha Damien who was smiling coldly at me."Please…" I whimpered.“You are only making this situation worse for yourself, Bella. All you need to say is that you have accepted my proposal and not the word please.” He growled.“And what? You even have the guts to make a mess of my room. My wife was also here because of you. It's barely been a day and you're already causing so much trouble.” He added.I kept sobbing quietly as I didn’t know what to do anymore. The thought of being on his bed when I knew he only wanted to take advantage of me scared and repulsed me.I finally stopped crying and then he moved closer to me, bending down to my level.He lifted my chin up with his index finger turning my face left and right."You know, I hate
