“That’s why I warned you that he will die because of you, Rose,”
he lifted my chin up, “He took that oath out of love for you and now he will die because of your love.”
Tears flowed from my eyes uncontrollably. “Please, stop her,”
I begged, “Kill me instead.”
He shook his head, “That’s not what I want to hear.”
I bit my lip, looking into his mismatched eyes, “I will do everything you say,”
I finally spoke the words that he wanted to hear. “I am ready to accept your punishments just please stop her,”
I begged.
“Finally you understand,”
A handsome smile curled his lips as he raised his hand and Mia, close to taking Reuben in her mouth, fainted. I looked at Reuben but Dark suddenly pulled me into a forceful kiss. I grew scared and raised my hand to push him away only to put my hand back down, my eyes going to Reuben.
I slowly closed my eyes, silently crying. His breathing was heavy, his grip on my hair tighter, and his lips were practically pinching mine. But everything suddenly gave me zero pain.
Once he was satisfied, he broke the kiss, “It’s time to go, Rose,”
he touched my face. I opened my eyes slowly, my expression dead, “Let’s go.”
He took my hand, ready to drag me away.
“Give me a minute with him,”
I murmured.
“That’s not happening,”
he angrily growled.
“Let me say goodbye to him or I will never be able to forgive myself,”
I begged.
He frowned bitterly but after a couple of seconds, he let my hand go, “You have only thirty seconds.”
I could finally cross the invisible wall and crawled closer to Reuben. He was no longer bleeding but was seriously injured. I held him in my arms and hugged him tightly.
“Do you remember the other day when you said that I deserved your everything?”
I whispered, my silent tears wetting his shoulder. “It was a lie. I don’t deserve you, Reuben. I never did,”
I broke into sobs. “If only I had never come into your life then you would not have gone through all of this,”
I looked at his closed eyes and smiled, “Now the children are all yours. Tell them mommy is gone but she will always love them,”
I closed my eyes sobbing, “I am sorry I am breaking my promise and abandoning you again,”
I leaned down and kissed his lips, “I love you,”
I whispered.
Our lips had only met for a second when Dark started dragging me away, “Let’s go.”
I looked over my shoulder at Reuben for the last time, “Reuben.”
Ella
Clad in a sleek black dress, I ventured into an underworld filled with drugs, sex, and danger, known as the Werewolf Underworld. It served as a refuge for criminal wolves, although some wealthy and powerful Alphas frequented the place. However, no other shifters or humans were allowed entry.
As I scanned the scene before me, I immediately regretted it. Never in my life had I stepped into such a disturbing environment. Wolves were openly engaging in sexual acts, akin to rabbits in heat. Most of the she-wolves appeared to be experiencing a forced heat, they resembled something close to sex slaves but appeared to be loving it.
I wasn’t sure where to direct my gaze as the scenes unfolded in nearly every corner. The discomfort and embarrassment weighed heavily on me, especially since I wasn’t alone but accompanied by a man who had always made me nervous.
“Act natural, unless you want us to attract attention from those wolves,”
Walter whispered, a charming smile playing on his lips as he wrapped his arm around my waist. I held my breath, unsure if it was due to embarrassment or his touch. However, he appeared unfazed by the sights around us.
“Are you certain this is the right address?”
I questioned, forcing a small smile to mask my nervousness.
“Why? Are you afraid I’ll sell you off here?”
He raised an eyebrow.
The smile faded from my lips as I glanced away, focusing on the people ahead. He frowned and inquired, “What’s wrong? Cat got your tongue? Aren’t you going to argue?”
my silence bothered him.
“What’s there to argue?”
I smiled sadly. “Perhaps I could win an argument with you, but not with destiny. This place harbors many familiar faces seeking the Opal Moon,”
I continued, gesturing subtly.
Following my gaze, Walter spotted a group of intoxicated Alphas mingling with she-wolves. “Whether you sell me or not, I am already in a place that I can’t escape. Once they see me ”
“You talk too much,”
Walter interrupted, turning me to face him. He placed a mask that covered half of my face, similar to those worn by the other serving she-wolves around us. I touched it in surprise and then looked up at him, as he secured the mask properly in place.
“Don’t take it off,”
he instructed lightly, glancing at me.
My heart skipped a beat. “Why are you doing this?”
I asked, my voice trembling slightly.
He paused abruptly, meeting my gaze for a fleeting moment before averting his eyes. “Let’s go,”
he said, taking my hand and leading me inside.
As we made our way through the crowd, I couldn’t help but steal glances at him. Did he truly avoid my question? And if so, why?
