The Forgotten Mate 3.
The One Night Stand. " Who are you????" I asked this man, His face hidden behind his Dragon mask." Do you want to get drunk and sleep together" He asked me his voice with so much authority,My life was already ruined and there was no need trying risky things and so I gave him a glass of wine and he sat behind me. In the dimly lit room, where the scent of wine lingers heavy in the air, I find myself lost in a haze of intoxication. The weight of my sorrows presses upon me, threatening to crush my spirit entirely. But in the midst of my despair, a figure emerges from the shadows, his face concealed by a mask.As he draws near, stumbling slightly in his drunken state, I catch a glimpse of his eyes through the openings of his mask. They hold a glimmer of understanding, as if he, too, carries a burden that seeks solace in the numbing embrace of alcohol.He reaches for a bottle, his movements unsteady yet purposeful, and pours himself a drink. His hands shake, matching the tremors of my own as I raise my glass once more. Our eyes meet, a silent understanding passing between us, and we take a sip simultaneously.The wine burns its way down my throat, intertwining with the heaviness in my heart. A moment of silence hangs in the air, pregnant with the weight of unspoken pain. And then, as if compelled by an unseen force, the words spill from my lips, unfiltered and raw."I've endured so much," I confess, my voice barely a whisper. "The rejection, the cruelty... It's become too much to bear."" My Family or should I say my tormentors hate me !!!! They have inflicted so much pain on me,I hate myself and my existence because of them!!!! I have no idea how to get out of this bondage ,I feel so much pain in my heart !!!" I said burst in immediate tears.He listens, his gaze fixed upon me with an intensity that matches my own desperation. The mask may obscure his features, but his presence exudes a palpable empathy. I find myself divulging the depths of my sorrow, recounting the torment that has plagued me for far too long.With each word, the burden upon my soul grows lighter. The mask-wearing stranger absorbs my pain, offering a sanctuary for my lamentations. He does not interrupt, but his eyes speak volumes, conveying a shared understanding of the darkness that consumes me.As the night progresses, the boundaries between us blur, both in our inebriation and our shared vulnerability. Our conversations dance upon the precipice of despair and hope, tangled threads of solace woven between us. The room becomes a sanctuary, shielding us from the harsh realities that await beyond its walls.In the warmth of the wine and the gentleness of his touch, we find a temporary respite from the anguish that has consumed our lives. The barriers that divide us crumble, and the desire for human connection surges forth.Without warning,He leaned and kissed me,I was about to hesitate and then I realized I had nothing to loose and I leaned forward and started to kiss him back. Without contemplation and several touches we started to make love in our drunken state unsure of who this man was,I just kept responding to his touches. Our bodies entwine, seeking solace in each other's embrace. In that fleeting moment, the world outside fades into insignificance, and all that matters is the intoxicating connection between two wounded souls.I slept off in his arms and for once after a long,I felt peace and I felt happiness.As the first rays of sunlight pierce through the window, my eyes flutter open, my body heavy with the remnants of wine-induced slumber. As consciousness slowly seeps back into my weary mind, I reach out, searching for the presence that had provided a fleeting solace in the night.But the space beside me remains cold and empty, a stark reminder of the transitory nature of our encounter. The mask-wearing stranger has vanished, leaving behind only a lingering ache within my heart. The room feels colder now, devoid of the warmth that had briefly thawed the depths of my despair.Confusion and disappointment tangle within me, a storm of emotions threatening to overwhelm my fragile state. I had allowed myself to be vulnerable, to find solace in the arms of a stranger, only to be left adrift once more. The remnants of our shared intimacy cling to my skin, a bittersweet reminder of a connection that now feels like a distant dream.Tears threaten to spill from my eyes as the weight of reality crashes upon me. I am alone once more, left to face the torment of my existence without the temporary reprieve that he had provided. The room, once a sanctuary, now serves as a stark reminder of the harsh reality that awaits beyond its confines.With trembling hands, I reach for the discarded remnants of our encounter, my fingers tracing the empty spaces he once occupied. But there is nothing left except for the echoes of his presence, now fading like whispers in the wind. I cling to the remnants of our connection, desperate to hold onto something that is slipping away.A profound sense of loss settles upon me, threatening to consume me whole. I had allowed myself to hope, to believe that perhaps, even in the depths of my despair, I had found a glimmer of light. But now that light has vanished, leaving behind only the darkness that had haunted me" Who was this man that brought me so much happiness"The Forgotten Mate 4. The Baby. Months had passed since that fateful night, and yet the memory of the mysterious man lingered within the depths of my mind, a bittersweet reminder of the fleeting happiness he had brought me. But as the days turned into weeks and the weeks into months, the pain of my existence persisted, unyielding in its relentless grip.An overwhelming weariness settled upon me, the weight of my suffering pushing me to the brink of surrender. My body, once strong and resilient, now felt weak and fragile. Nausea gripped my stomach, an unwelcome companion that plagued me day and night. Unable to bear it any longer, I sought the guidance of the chief maid, a woman who had shown me a semblance of kindness in this world of torment.I approached her, my steps slow and hesitant, as if the weight of my burden were physically dragging me down. She turned her gaze towards me, concern etched upon her face. Without uttering a single word, she knew something was amiss."Bloom,
The journey to the neighboring pack, ruled by the infamous Lycan King, was a torturous one. The rattling wagon bumped along the rugged terrain, each jolt sending shivers of pain through my battered body. The chains that bound me clinked and clanked with each movement, a constant reminder of my captivity.As the wagon rolled to a stop, my heart pounded in my chest. This was the moment I had feared—the moment when I would be handed over to a new master, a master rumored to be even more ruthless than my uncle. The pack guards opened the wagon doors, their eyes devoid of compassion or sympathy."Get out," one of the guards barked, grabbing my arm roughly and yanking me from the wagon. I stumbled, my weakened body struggling to keep up with their callous treatment. With each step, the weight of uncertainty pressed down upon me, mingling with the heaviness of my growing belly.We approached a grand palace, towering walls casting ominous shadows. The air crackled with a foreboding energy, as
The Forgotten Mate 6. Night finally came and I decided to rest my head a little but I couldn't, Thought on how I was going to survive with my unborn child in this evil place sent fear through my spine,My encounter with Alpha Liam, The Lycan King made it even worse,He had sent an immediate threat of death if I didn't do as I was told and it made me even wonder what my fate was." Are you asleep???" I heard a voice from a corner and I flinched.I had thought I was the only one in this room. Realising there was someone else made me astonished." Have you been here all this while????" I asked and she nodded. The figure was a Young lady just like me.She would be in her early adulthood, Or maybe just a few years away from teenage hood . She had beautiful red hair and she reminded me of my mother. Her eyes were swollen and her face pale.She was dressed in a rag and chains were in her legs chaining her to one spot. " Yes ….. I just decided to allow you to have your moment of realisation" she
7: A Harlot's DefianceThe room was filled with tension as I stood before Alpha Liam, my heart pounding in my chest. His piercing gaze felt like it could see right through me, leaving me feeling exposed and vulnerable. I couldn't bring myself to meet his eyes, not after hearing the stories of his ruthlessness and cruelty. Praying silently to the moon goddess for strength, I approached him.As I walked past Ana, I could hear her whisper, filled with concern, "Oh, Bloom, what are you going to do?" Her words echoed my own fears.Standing in front of Alpha Liam, I kept my gaze fixed on the ground. I didn't dare look up at him, for I had only glimpsed his captivating features once before, and it had left me in awe. But that was before I learned about the rumors, the judgments that had already been passed about me."Go down on your knees!" Alpha Liam's voice thundered, causing me to flinch involuntarily. I was about to comply, but a guard forcefully pushed me down, leaving bruises as a pa
8 : Hall of Shame.If I could recall so well,Ana had said that Alpha Liam forbidded anyone to go into his main palace,That was why he had a chamber but He had just ordered me to come with him to his room." Me ????" I stuttered still shivering and under the storm." Is she really necessary for her to still be there" Austin said to Liam,He had noticed that I was already shivering and turning pale,I didn't want to freeze to death and at this rate ,I can't stop that from happening. Other maids and some occupants of the pack watched,Some felt pity for me and some wondered what I had down to amount to such death sentence." Yes !!!! If she's going to freeze to death then she should have by now , If she hasn't that means it's not happening!!!" Alpha Liam said, Austin stared at him in annoyance,He walked to the where I was kneeling and grabbed my hands ." Liam !!!!! She's turning cold and pale!!!,Free Her !!!" Austin yelled covering me up with my jacket." I said she can follow me to my roo
9 : Hall of Shame.Bloom's Pov..I hurriedly ran out of his room.My heart was racing like I was at the point of death. Memories of how he pinned me on his bed quickly flooded my mind. " Calm down !!! Calm down..Bloom…." I panicked and made my way to the cave." Bloom……." I Heard someone scream by name and I turned to see who it was. It was Austin, The aura around him was appeasing and I felt enchanted by it." Hi……." I stuttered and he smiled." Do you have difficulty speaking????" Austin laughed and I giggled." Thank you for the other day…I would have felt really sick if you didn't intervene" Thank you very much" I said." Nahhhh…It's fine,You should stay clear from Liam,He is merciless and strict!!!!" Austin said and I nodded." Uhmmm…." I was about to reply to Austin when I sighted Liam." Thank you for the other day..I should be on my way now…." I bowed and ran out, Liam's presence was now even more threatening." What did you do now ??,See the way she ran out" Austin sighed."
The Forgotten Mate 10. 10 : A solace reminder. Austin helped me up, The eyes that gazed at me seem to be back busy with one thing or the other,Ana was at the other side of the kitchen,She had whispered calm words, Something like you are safe now . I was only safe from another of Liam's wrath and Punishment because Austin had rescued me." You Finger….." Austin pointed at my pinky and it was then I realized the broken vase had cut deeply into my fingers and I was bleeding." I will be fine…." I said and dipped my finger in my mouth and it made Austin burst into laughter." How razz !!!!!" Liam said from behind and I quickly grabbed my mop to leave and I felt a tight grip on my wrist." Where are you going???? We were having a discussion weren't we ??? Why are you running off????" Austin said and I let go of his grasp, Liam's eyes already sent a message, He didn't like Austin to be around me or even seeing me around, It irritated him. I felt like he hated me more than any other slave
The Forgotten Mate 11. 11: Who is your baby father.I was dumbfounded,If I was to tell him the circumstances on how I got it pregnant,It would be agreed that I am actually a harlot,So I was going to lie and although I wasn't a good liar I was going to pull some strings." Hmmmm…. You mean who is responsible for my pregnancy???" I asked and he nodded." Yes,He shouldn't have left you to be sold,Who is he ???" Austin asked his eyes filled with concern and I became guilty and upset that I had to lie to him but I really had no choice. " My mate…..He is the father of my unborn child but I will raise in on my own " I stated and Austin frowned." Did he reject you???" Austin asked and it felt like a heartache. My mind went to when Asher rejected me in front of everyone in the pack, The day I got rejected my mate that was supposed to love me and care for me,He is the only reason I was living on, The only reason I endured and he rejected me because I was weak, He rejected me because I was a
