TETHERED EPISODE 37
KEILAHAs my eyes landed on Ralph and Damien standing in the living room, my heart plummeted, and a chill crawled up my spine. The sight of them made my blood feel as though it were draining from my veins, leaving me cold and vulnerable. I instinctively moved closer to my aunt, a protective instinct kicking in, as if they were a threat to her safety.But amidst my shock and fear, a surge of questions flooded my mind. What are they doing at my aunt's house? More importantly, how did the vampire... How did he find out about my aunt? What is he doing here?The vampire's gaze locked onto mine, his eyes glinting with amusement, and I felt something pulling me towards him. It was a magnetic force, unsettling and irresistible, like a moth drawn to a flame. His presence exuded danger, yet there was an undeniable allure that sent shivers down my spine.I swept my gaze over to Ralph, unable to ignore the complex array of emotions playing across his features. Anger simmered just beneath the surf
TETHERED EPISODE 38
KEILAH As I lay on the ground, dazed and hurting, Ralph's presence loomed over me like a dark cloud. I could feel his anger radiating off him in waves, his every breath heavy with fury."Why did you do that?" he growled, his voice low and dangerous. I struggled to form words, the pain and shock overwhelming my senses. But before I could respond, his grip tightened around my neck once again, his fingers digging into my skin like claws."You belong to me," he spat, his words cutting through the silence like a knife. "And you will learn to obey without question."With a final, brutal shove, he released me, sending me sprawling onto the ground once more. Gasping for air, I lay there, trembling with fear and pain."Get back in the car," he commanded in a chillingly even tone, his footsteps retreating towards his car. But as I resigned myself to obeying, a glimmer of hope flickered in the distance. A taxi approached, its yellow beacon of salvation drawing nearer with each passing mome
TETHERED EPISODE 39
DAMIEN As her lips crashed against mine, a jolt of surprise shot through me, momentarily stunning my senses. Her desperation was palpable, her kiss frantic and fervent, but it wasn't the taste of her lips that overwhelmed me. It was the sudden rush of warmth, of life, that surged through me, drowning out the hunger that had threatened to consume me.Swiftly, almost instinctively, I pushed her away, breaking the kiss with a forceful shove. As I pulled back, I felt a cold mask settle over my features, my gaze hardening as I met her eyes."Don't ever do that again," I warned, my voice cold and authoritative. "You have no idea what you're playing with.”She recoiled at my sudden change in demeanour, her eyes widening in confusion and perhaps a hint of fear."I-I'm sorry," she stammered, her voice tinged with confusion and embarrassment. "I don't know what came over me. I just... I had to stop you."I shook my head, the memory of her lips against mine still lingering like a phantom touch.
TETHERED EPISODE 40
KEILAH My heart pounded hard in my chest as Ralph dragged me away. I glanced back at Damien, who stood there watching us, his expression unreadable. When we were far enough from Damien's eyes, Ralph paused and turned to face me. I flinched back, expecting a slap or worse from him, but he just took a few steps back and shifted into his huge sleek black wolf form. My breath caught in my throat at the sight of his wolf. So magnificent, big, and so close to me. Hop on, his voice slipped into my head,his voice calm yet insistent.I hesitated for a moment but then took a tentative step forward. "You're beautiful," I whispered, my voice barely audible. I instinctively reached out my hand, my fingers trembling slightly.His wolf was breathtaking, his fur a sleek, inky black. Its eyes, a striking shade of amber, watched me intently, filled with a mix of urgency and reassurance. I took another slow step, my heart racing with a blend of fear and admiration.With deliberate gentleness, I pla
TETHERED EPISODE 41
KEILAH "Wait, I don't understand," I said slowly, my voice tinged with suspicion. "Why now? Why the sudden apology when we both know we don't like each other? What are you planning—”Before I could continue, she took my hand, her grip surprisingly gentle. "That's why I want to make amends. Let's start off by officially introducing you to the other members," she said, her voice carrying a mix of determination and hope."Wait, what?" I protested, but she was already leading me out of the room.As she guided me down the hallway, I couldn't shake the feeling of unease. This was so unlike her, and I couldn't help but wonder if there was an ulterior motive. But her sincerity seemed genuine, and I decided to give her the benefit of the doubt—for now.We reached the dining room, which i didn't even know existed, and the moment we stepped inside, all eyes turned towards us. The room was filled with the pack members, each seated with plates of food in front of them. Conversations halted, and a
TETHERED EPISODE 42
KEILAH As Ralph's deep voice broke the silence, I couldn't help but feel a knot tighten in my stomach. What could he possibly want to talk about at this hour? Oh, of course, there's a lot to talk about. But can't he wait for tomorrow? I grumbled inwardly.Swallowing the lump in my throat, I sat upright and hesitantly shifted closer to him, feeling the warmth of his body radiating against my skin. His presence was both comforting and unnerving, like standing on the edge of a cliff, unsure if I would fall or find solid ground beneath me.With a trembling breath, I spoke, my voice barely above a whisper. "Can't we talk tomorrow? I'm not feeling well and need to rest."He turned to face me, his expression unreadable in the dim light filtering through the curtains. His eyes bore into mine, searching for something I couldn't quite decipher. "I need to apologize," he began, his voice heavy with sincerity. "For everything that's happened between us, for the way I've treated you."I blinked i
TETHERED EPISODE 1
KEILAH It was a stormy night. And my wedding night with the man I stole from my best friend. The rain poured heavily outside, yet amidst the downpour, I could still hear my friend's screams as she was being gang-raped. She called out my name, desperately seeking help, but I callously ignored her cries. I knew that I was the one behind this sinister plan against her. Satisfaction spread across my face as I realized she would forever be out of my way, allowing me to fully enjoy my marriage. I happily revelled in the night with the man who was once hers.I jolted awake, drenched in sweat. Beside me, my best friend Cora lay snuggled up like a baby. Quietly, I slid out from under the covers and tiptoed out of the bedroom and into the bathroom. Switching on the cold water, I stepped beneath its icy stream. The chill of the water provided relief for my anxiety stemming from the dream I had just experienced.Once I cleaned up, I stepped out of the shower, feeling fresh and much better, and w
TETHERED EPISODE 2
I stood frozen in surprise as the door slammed shut, leaving me standing outside the gate with loads of heavy grocery bags in my hands. Confusion washed over me as I tried to make sense of the situation unfolding before me. The worried voices of the women continued to echo through the gate, their urgency growing with each passing second. Curiosity and concern compelled me to knock on the door so that I could give a little explanation about the old woman's situation. A few moments of silence followed, and then the door creaked open, revealing a young, beautiful woman with a fear expression on her face. She glanced at me, her ombre eyes filled with apprehension."Who are you?" She asked, her voice trembling slightly."I'm…I'm the lady who brought your grandmother," I stammered.She hesitated for a moment and was about to hand her the bags, but suddenly, her eyes went wide before slamming the door shut again without a word. I blinked incessantly, wondering what was wrong with them. No
