ELENA’S POV
I had been in Lukas’ mansion for almost two weeks now and nothing had changed, he was still treating me like I was either his child or his possession. He still knew that I didn’t wnat to be here and yet he chose to not let me go, it was obvious that he didn’t care about me. What had I expected from a man like him, he was cruel and the only thing he knew in life was only to please himself. The longer I stayed with him the more I hated him. However, despite the hate that I kept showering him with, he still seemed to have hope that one day I would willingly offer myself to him. To some degree, he even seemed to try to make me like him by doing things he thought I would like. In a weird way, I could see that he was a caring and loving man but he just wasn’t the man for me and that was just something that he would have to accept and realize.I hadn't made any friends in the mansion and that was all thanks to the fact that Lukas had been keeping me locked in his room. At first, he said he was keeping me in his room all because I had tried to escape the first night he was here, and then after that, he started saying that he was keeping me locked up because he didn’t want to share e with anyone. It was one thing to be with a man that I didn’t love or desire but the worst thing was the fact that he was now possessive over me. However, I was finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel for me because Lukas had decided that keeping me locked up wasn’t a very good idea. I was now allowed to walk around that mansion but I had an escort everywhere I went.
The wasn’t much for me to do in this mansion except spend the day watching other wolves as they trained. This was something that I loved watching because it had been a dream of mine to also be one of my pack’s warriors, but sadly, Lukas had shattered those dreams with his lust for a young virgin girl. Even though I blamed my family, specifically my mother and my father for what was happening to me, I still missed them.
I wished that I could just get a chance to visit them and see how they were doing after I left, I also hoped that when they saw how unhappy I was they would realize their mistake and demand that Lukas sends me back to them. Of course, I knew that he wouldnt willingly hand me over t them but at the same time I had to keep some kind of hope alive. It was the only thing that helped me through my day, I now lived my life imagining what it would be like if I was still at home. I couldn't stop thinking of how life was back home and wondering if they missed me as much as I missed them. I couldn't imagine my father and my mother spending nights together and discussing how much they missed me and wished I was at home, but I knew that was something they thought about individually.
Today I was determined to ask Lukas to allow me to visit my family just once, I knew that convincing him to let me go was going to be very hard but I was desperate and I was almost willing to do anything to get him to agree to my request. I really hoped that he would allow me to just see my little sister even once, I didn’t wnat her to visit because I didn’t wnat to expose her to the vultures that were in this mansion.
I waited for Lukas to arrive after dinner as he always did, he always slept late but he always made it a point to come and see me after dinner before he went back into his office. I was so nervous because I didn’t know which direction this conversation was going to take. My greatest fear was for me to end up under Lukas, that was something that I wanted to delay for as long as I could.
“Good evening my love,” he said as he walked into the room
”Can I please go and see my family?” I asked without hesitation, I didn’t wnat to wait before asking him because I was afraid that I wouldn't up not asking him if I delayed asking.
“Whoa..” he laughed “that was out of the blue,” he said as he sat on the bed next to me
“I miss them and I just thought that maybe you would allow me to see them just one more time” I begged
“Am I treating you horribly?” he asked me and I hesitantly shook my head
“Then why are you acting like I am the worst thing that had ever happened to you?” he asked
”That is not what I mean, I would just love to see them one last time and then I promise” he interjected before I could even make the point I was trying to make
“If I am not treating you badly then I don’t see any reason for you to go there,” he said
”But they are my family and I love them,” I said and he cleared his throat
"I am the only family that you need and I am the only one you should love,” he said getting u from the bed and giving me a brief smile
“Get that through your head and all will be well,” he said with a wink as he walked away leaving my heart crumbling into a million little pieces. I just felt like this man hated me.
Had he just brought me here in an attempt to see just how far his cruelty could go, why would he refuse me the right to visit my own family? He wanted to be everything to me, he wanted me to think that I didn’t need anybody else if I had him and that was simply not true. Even if Lukas was my real mate, and even if I did genuinely love him I was sure that I wouldnt abandon my own family all because I had him. Why did he have to be so difficult even in something that seemed so simple? I wasn’t asking him to let me go, I was simply asking him to allow me to visit my family.
However, I felt that I was to blame for all this because I was the one who had tried to run away from the first night I was here. I had vowed to make things very difficult for him from day one and now I was regretting it because the tables had turned on me. Lukas was the one that was making things very difficult for me and I didn’t know how to change things and put them in my favor. It was clear that he didn’t trust me.
LUKAS’ POVHow could she betray me like that? I considered the fact that she wanted to go back home as a betrayal because she was acting like I hadn’t been good to her. She was acting like I was an abusive mate to her. I hated how ungrateful she was being, I was trying my best to make her feel at home and even going the extra mile of making sure that I didn’t make her do anything she didn’t want to do. I hadn’t forced myself on her as yet, even though the main reason I had brought her here was so that she could give me babies. I felt very betrayed by her right now. It was a good thing that I left the room and ended the conversation because there was no telling what I could have done if I hadn’t.I decided to keep my distance from her for the rest of the night because I didn’t want anything else that would upset me and I didn’t want to end up doing something that I didn’t want to do. Why couldn’t she just understand that I just wanted to make her happy and I wanted her to be happy with
ELENA’S POVLukas had done his best to keep his distance from me and he had made it pretty clear that he didn’t think me going to visit my family was a good idea. However, I just didn’t understand why he felt so threatened by me just spending time with my family. I was sure that he wouldn’t send me away on my own. How could he even think that I could outsmart his guards? Unless, of course, he didn’t think that his guards were competent enough to do what they were expected to do. Even though I didn’t think that they would send me away on my own, I still hoped that he would. I hoped that he would choose to trust me enough to let me visit my parents without anyone escorting me and in that way he would prove not only his love but also his trust in me. This was exactly how I intended on pleading my case the moment he got into the room.I knew that he was upset after I spoke to him yesterday, but I wasn’t about to let this conversation end without me getting what I wanted. I was going to gi
LUKAS’ POVI decided that it was best if I just let her go and visit her parents because her voice was starting to get very irritating to me. I didn’t like the fact that she had decided to make it her mission to annoy me each time she lay her eyes on me. Letting her visit them was not only going to give me a piece of mind, but it was also going to save her from a lot too.Of course, I wasn't about to allow her to go out there on her own, I wasn’t about to take the risk of allowing her to go back to her pack unaccompanied. I wanted her to go with one of my guards to make sure that she and her parents wouldn’t try anything funny. I didn’t want any of them to even think that she could stay there and not come back. I must admit that I was a little unsettled with her away from me. I had sent the guard with her but that didn’t make me feel any better and at this point I realized that I should have gone with her myself. I knew that I was the only one who could control her and I didn’t even w
ELENA’S POV After hearing Lukas’ voice, I was literally trembling. I regretted coming back home after I ran away, but I had hopes that my mother would fight for me to stay after I had told them how I was being treated. I realized that I had nowhere else to go besides home. I had the choice of running away from home and becoming a rogue or going back to my parents and making them understand. I felt that the only reasonable choice that I had at that point was to just go back home and make it work with my father. It was best if I asked her to forgive me for running away from Lukas and maybe we could all leave and find a place we could call home somewhere else. I knew that I was just stretching my dreams at this point, but I couldn’t bear the thought of being a lone wolf knowing that I had a family. Maybe if I showed my mother that I was brave she would finally stand up to my father and defend me. I longed for my mother to defend me and tell him that what they were doing was wrong. Befor
LUKAS’ POV I woke up a little earlier than I usually did the following morning because I just couldn’t wait to see Elena. I wanted to take her back home and it was as if I was also afraid that if I took my time seeing her she would run away again and this was a fear that I wasn’t ready to share with anyone else. It wasn’t like there was anyone that I could share what I was going through with Elena in this palace. I didn’t like it when my subjects thought that I was a weak alpha who was ruled by emotions and I didn’t want it to seem like I didn’t know what I was doing when it came to Elena. Loving a woman the way I loved Elena was a very dangerous thing because she had a power over me that she still hadn't come to terms with yet. If Elena asked for someone's head from me I would gladly give it to her and, because of the way she was behaving, I was certain that if she recognized this power my life and my pack would definitely be in danger.“Where are you off to so early in the morning?
ELENA’S POVI didn’t even know what the right thing to say to Lukas was at this point. He looked calm, he was acting calm, but I could feel that his energy was not a calm one at all. The guard that was kneeling next to me looked so afraid and my fear was that he was going to die for a dumb decision that I had made. I didn’t want anyone to die because of me. However, that didn’t mean that I also wanted to die although I was probably better off dead at this point. This was not the life that I wanted to live. It would be better if Lukas just shot me without this interrogation. ”Lukas, let me explain,” I said as I attempted to get up from the couch and reason with him before this went too far. I couldn’t see how he would choose to kill the guard over me when he had known that guard longer than I had, but then again this man was obsessed with me. This was a decision that I had taken all on my own and I was ready to defend it if I had to.“Sit down my love,” he said calm but I just stood t
LUKAS’ POVI had finally managed to get my point across to Elena and she now knew exactly what was expected of her. I hated the fact that she was now afraid, but I came to a point where I realized that she wasn’t ever going to do everything that I expected from her until I showed her that I wasn’t going to tolerate her games. I just wanted her to understand that I wasn’t going to tolerate anything that was not a commitment from her. After she left me in the living room, I decided to go to the office to do some work, but after I got there I couldn’t even focus on what I was doing. I couldn’t stop thinking about what she was doing in the room and how she would look in the lingerie that I had gotten for her today. I hoped that she would wear it because Elena was very stubborn and the chances of her not even wearing that thing were very high. As a matter of fact, I wouldn't be surprised if she wasn't even in our room, to begin with.Today was the day that I had been impatiently waiting fo
ELENA’S POVI closed my eyes as Lukas got on top of me and started having sex with me. I didn’t want to see his face as he kissed me and as he breathed down my neck. I felt so filthy and dirty, but I knew that if I made even a single mistake or if I did something that would make him think that I didn’t want this as much as he did, he would kill my family. I was still traumatized by what had happened to the guard earlier and I was certain that the picture of his dead body was never going to get out of my mind. I couldn’t even understand how Lukas had seemingly gotten over that. I couldn’t understand how he could be on top of me and act like he hadn’t just threatened my life earlier. He was going on as if killing someone was a part of his daily life and it didn't matter to him or affect him in any way.The reason why I decided to get dressed in the way that he wanted me to be dressed was that I didn’t want any more fights with him. Of course, I didn’t want to get intimate with him, but
