Fidgeting on her bed, Grace sat on her bed and can't find her self sleeping on the bed despite already sitting there for the past 50 minutes.
"Who was that man?" She spoke to herself.
His eyes, that same green eyes, it was so familiar. He knows that man but she didn't have a clue who he was. There's a sense of familiarity with the way he won't stop staring at her even when he was caught with silver chains burning his skin.
Werewolf. It must be that creature for no other creature couldn't bare the touch of silver like them. Eyes and wolf, could it be? She quickly got up and open her door but a guard was standing in front of her. He twist his head and stare at her.
"What are you doing awake, my lady?"
"I..I uhm..I can't sleep. Wh..who was the men that was caught just now?"
He frown, "That is not any of your business Lady Grace. Prince Alexei wants you to go to bed. Please, return." He turn back and ignore her.
Grace bit her lips. She needs to step outside. Curiosity was burning deeply in her chest and she needs to go quickly. She hears screaming earlier and she was sure that those same prisoners was being tortured.
Her chest ache thinking about him being hurt by Alex who made it clear that wolf are violent creatures which goals is destruction and blood. Yet, she know that it was not the full truth at all. Maybe Alex's parnets was killed by such beings but not him. Not His Cady. The boy who had sworn to marry her when she was a kid.
If only the accident could've been avoided, she would have been by his side at this very moment because according to Cady, she was his mate.
Yes, she knows that werewolf exist and her family was friend with these creatures before but after that fateful accident, her life change forever. It changes for good. Quickly Emma look around her for something she can use an excuse to sneak out. She saw a glass botttle fill with cool water.
She was desperate so she quickly take that bottle and smash it on the floor. She lightly step on one shard and hurt herself. She grimaced at the pain but quickly rushed to the door and cry out in pain.
"Ah! Please, help me Thomas!"
Thomas the guard step inside and sighed, "What happen here?'
"I..ugh.I was thirsty and I can't sleep if i don't drink. It fell and I accidentally.."
"Okay! Okay! I go get the first aid kit. You! Make sure you don't step out. I know your tricks. You out, Prince Alex will be so pissed, got it?"
Emma nodded and watch him went outside. She grin and quickly tore the end of her curtain to wrapped aroudn her foot. It was a justa small yet deep cut but she could manage. She lighly limp hersel herself outside and on the search for the mystery man.
...
Forty minutes earlier
Blood filled his mouth with every punches to his face. It was not as bad as Aiden though. He looked like a heavy mess but he was breathing and his wolf was healing itself only very slowly with how the silver chains still wraped around his wrist, hanging him in the dirty dungeron.
Prince Alex, leader of vampires in North America stand at the back with his white sleeping shirt that leaves s a huge gap, revealing a broad pane of chest. His skin was white as snow with few shades of blonde hair dusted his wide chest. His grin from aside and his bright blue eyes stares at him with amusement. Why would he not?
Caden was hanging from the ceiling with his shirt ripped open revealing hs now bloody chest with silver around his body. Sear marks covered his body. Though it can heal, it would surely leave a scar. It was Alex way of humiliating him but what made it worst tonight was his mate is part of this coven. He was beyond upset, beyond pissed but there was snothing he can do. If he let her go or leave withouther, he would die. Once a mate is found, it is highly important he or she sticks with each other or else they will feel excruciating pain.
After the guard stop hitting him, Alex move closer. He clutch Caden's chin. "I know you are dumb, Caden but not this dumb." Eric grin.
"Tell me, was it worth it to risk your life fot this wolf?" He pointed to Aiden.
"Fuck you." Caden spits out with specks of blood in his mouth flew to Alex's cheek. Alex chuckle. Out of knowhere, he land a punch through his guts, making Caden spit out more blood.
"How I've waited for this moment to have the big bad alpha of Lithia Moon pack to be here, exactly where I want him to be. In my mercy. tell me, you want a quick death or something longer for me to enjoy?"
Caden growled, "Alright then. Long torture it is. Make sure he is locked up tigh. Don't underestimate this animals. They are sneaky. They can outsmart you anytime"
Alex steps outisde, followed by Eric. The dungeon room is now empty except for the three werewolf hanging and bleeding from their wound. Caden spits out more blood that fills his mouth. He turned to Aiden who looked like a mess himself.
"You fucking idiot. Once i get my hand on you..."
"Im sorry. I seriously didn't know i was.."
"Exactly, you didn't think! Stupid wolf. "
Joshua who was wounded himself cut in, "Guys, stop okay. Let's just find our way out of here. Chris is outside and trust me, we wont be here for long. Don't move around too much. "
Easier for you to say, Caden thought. He has more wounds than any of them since it was him that Alex hated the most. His stupid of a father killed Alex's parents many years ago and from the way Alex was staring at him, he have no mercy. He pulled on the chains and though it did hurt him badly, he refuse to think much and proceed to loosen the tie. Again his thoughts drift to the girl just now.
How could the Gods put him in that situation? He hated vampires. Despise him and any creatures associated with them. The way Eric cares for her shows how important she was and for him and his wolf, she was a prority. Not only he has to escape, he must find the girl and bring her back to the pack or else, he will die.
It didn't take long for him to plan for the target when suddenly, the dungeon gate was open. Glimspe of the familiar dark red hair can be seen. When he blinks twice, it truly was her. The beautiful girl at the field. His mate.
She was panting for breath. Her strong clucth on her blanket around her body made her look adorable. Her red lips was open as she bretahe in air and her eyes sparkled.
"Wh..who are you?" She ask and her sweet voice made his wolf growl. She sounds so gorgeous. Her soft voice very melodic.
"Who am I?" Caden gritted that out.
"Y..yes. Why do you look at me as such?"
He grin, "Like what, angel? Like I want to eat you?"
She frowned. "Y..yes."
"I am a wolf after all. You look very delicious form where you are standing." Fuck, his face must've look scary with blood dripping down his face.
"Do you know me?" She ask with a soft voice.
"Yes, baby. I do." He say.
"What? What is it? " She asked him right back.
"Why don't;t you come closer?" He says.
"I..I don;t know. I'm not suppose too."
"I don't think you are suppose to enter here either. Come on. You want to now what you are to me don't you?" Grace gulped in air and slowly go close to him.
"Closer." His hoarse voice whispered.
"Again. Closer." He continues until Grace's face was only a few inches from him. Continue to draw her in like a sweet trusting prey.
"I'm here. What now?"
She couldn't react on time. Caden's lips latches on hers and she wanted to squeal but her voice was stuck in her throat. She felt his tongue penetrating her mouth. She was scared at first but one she settled down, it actually felt...it felt good.
His lips was rough and his tongue was demanding asking for her attention so she tries to follow him. Heaven. She wa in heaven. As soon as he pulls back leaving her red lips plumper than usual She steps forward while staring at him with her lust grazed eyes.
"Why...why did you do that?"
"Baby.." He grinned at her while licking his lips, wanting to taste whatever left of her on his lips.
"You're my mate. You're mine. You're coming with me." She didn't understand what he was really saying and before she could, her mouth was covered making her scream.
