Chapter 1
The Rogue
Anastasia pov
Life is bulls***.Well don't mind my language because I only speak the truth.If you put yourself in my shoes,you will know from which angle I am talking this sh**.But anyways,we all have to live,either happily or crying and I preferred the former as it was with no regrets.
I casually walk down the human street ,it was late at night and I was at a pub street.
I see people turning around to stare at me and I just ignore them as usual.Its not their fault though,it's been a while since I saw someone like me.
Someone with tattoos almost everywhere on her body,piercings in all the unusual places,clothes all black in this scorching heat and various rings on almost all my fingers.
Tonight I was craving for a strong drink which could numb my mind for a bit, so here I was in front of the infamous club.
The silver nights
The name may sound simple but I knew more about it than other humans did .Like the mere fact that there were not only humans inside but also werewolves
Another fun fact being that silver in silver nights came from the silver moon pack ie the name of the pack that controls the land that I stand on.
I was covered in black from head to toe ,it definitely looked weird considering that the other girls around me wore dresses which didn't even covered their butts properly.
And not to forget my combat boots vs their expensive heels.
Ignoring them I stand straight and stare at the bouncer,who took notice of my attire from top to bottom.
"Name?"
He asks and I reply casually,my voice cold as usual.
"Anastasia Grey"
I simply say and he speaks something on his walkey Talkey.I am not a criminal for god sake,why so much drama!
After few minutes of conversation in some foreign language he nods at me.
And I side step him entering.
I know why they allowed me though,I stare at the camera and wink knowing the one behind the camera.
Ronnie,my left hand and childhood friend.He is one in security here and I never face any problem in entering this club,he has my back all covered.
Looking around I sigh placing my hands in my pockets,It was definitely packed tonight.
I am welcomed with smoke and neon lights,people dancing like there is no tomorrow,nearly jumping on each other at the retro music.Making my way through them,I find a secluded corner at the corner of the bar and nod at the bartender.
"Ana! It's been long! How are you?"
Jay is another one of my good friends.I smile seeing him back after his break.He said he was going for a holiday,when I knew he went to his pack house for some pack business.But I never told this to him,the less the outside world knows about me,the better.
"I am good! Will be better with a tequila on the rocks?"
My reply made him smile as he pulled the bottle from the shelf,pouring me a glass.
"You got a new one I see"
He says while staring at the new tattoo at the side of my neck.I take the glass from him and smirk back
"Yup! An eagle to be exact, independent and ferocious"
He chuckles,moving his head as if not believing me.While I sit on the stool and look around,the place looks more crowded than usual,what was the occasion.As if knowing what I was thinking,he replies.
"The president's son is back in town and his ceremony is to be held tomorrow .People are celebrating it tonight"
I nod at him.
By President's son,he means the Alpha's son and I almost cringe. Don't get me wrong,I don't hate men,but this Alpha's Son,well I have a deep rooted hatred for him.
He is a true bas*** I must say,he acts all innocent and sweet but once you get to know his real side,he is a beast with not even a single bone of humanity in him.
I wonder how cruel people like him get such high position in the hierarchy,but then we can't forget whose son he is.
Asking for another drink ,I gulp it in one go and Jay looks at me in confusion.
"Hey Ana, everything fine? You seem upset suddenly"
Why won't I be upset? He is back in town,the very son of a mother who broke my heart for the first time.5 years it has been but still his words stab like a fresh wound into my heart.
"Is he here?"
I ask and Jay merely shrugs his shoulders.Continuing with serving other guests and filling their glasses.
"He is,in the VIP section"
That was all,I took a deep breaths to calm my chaotic mind and thumping heart.
I can't face him without smashing his face and ruining it's grace.So I better leave or my hands were twitching to murder someone.I came for a peaceful drink here,to enjoy my night,but I guess even that's a far fetched dream today.
Placing a 100 dollar note on the table,I got up to leave when I felt someone's heated gaze on me.
Don't Ana! Don't look up!
But I had to.
As soon as I looked up into the VIP section,my eyes met certain someone's blue eyes already fixed at me.
And I clench my fists.
Anger surged through me seeing him after 5 long years.Here goes my beautiful night to hell! DAMMIT!
He narrowes his eyes at me as if not believing that its me.
The once shy and cute looking Ana.
To only smirk.
The audacity of this piece of shit!
I was going to leave,I can't even stay in his presence.I feel suffocated.
Ignoring him I pushed aside the sweaty bodies to make my way outside.But as soon as I stepped out into the refreshing air,two men block my way.
"I am sorry ma'am.You can't leave"
I stared at the hunks,my forehead had creases as I pulled out a chewing gum from my pocket and placed it in my mouth.
Calm down Ana, don't kill, don't kill.
I was telling myself trying to calm myself.
"Why? Do I need your permission now"
"No ma'am but you have to follow us.You have been called inside"
I smirked ar them in disbelief,of course it has to be like this.
He has seen me and he won't let me leave that easily.
That bas*** knows he rules these lands and he doesn't leave an occasion to not flaunt it.
Following them ,I am taken up to the VIP section.The chewing gum in my mouth,the only thing stopping me from gritting my teeth and calming my mind.
I look around to see everyone again staring at me,taking me from up to down.As we enter the vip section.
After numerous gates and security locks,I was taken to a secluded room where everything was dark.
Confused I try to locate something and that's when I see him there,sitting in a corner like a boss,one leg placed on top of his other thigh.
A cigar in his hands and coldness in his eyes.
Looking around further I see a girl dancing on the pole, sending him seductive stares as he smirks at her to only stop his gaze at me.
What was this fuc*** up show? What was he trying to insinuate here
Next I know,he motioned the guards with his two fingers and they left me alone in this lions cave .
Trying to calm my freaking senses,I try to portray as much calmness as possible.
He likes to play with others emotions,and never am I going to place my guarded heart into his palms again.
"Ana "
He merely says and I cringe.The sweetness in his voice like poison,killing you slowly to leave nothing of you in the end.I don't reply,looking around at the dark room in boredom.
To show him that his voice no longer had that effect on me now.
"Atleast I expect a hi in return,love?"
I clenched my fists,hi? My foot! He should expect a punch because I am seconds away from landing it on his face.And love? The audacity of this piece of sh**
My eyes hardened at him and he again smirks.
Next I know,he motioned for the dancer to come towards him and she gladly comes in a seducing way,her dress a mere piece of lingerie and her body that of a supermodel. Sitting on his lap,she traces her fingers on his face and started sucking his neck .
While all this time,his eyes remain fixed on me.
I look down, breathing heavily
If he is trying to make me jealous,he is the biggest fool in this world. Anastasia Grey never forgives and does the same mistake again.You cross me once,I block you forever. Simple. No animosity,no regrets.
"I see you wish privacy Sir,I will like to take my leave"
I turn around to leave,when I heard his cold voice roar in the silence of the room.
"Stop"
He says and I don't turn around. Closing my eyes I take deep breaths.A minute passed and the silence felt suffocating.When all of a sudden I heard the clicks of heels hitting the floor and I look up at the girl leaving the room and closing the door.
Leaving both of us,alone.
He didn't say anything and I could feel his heated stare on my back.Thankfully I was not wearing anything revealing.
"What happened to you?"
He asks and I wanted to laugh at his statement.After all that he did to me,he dares to show concern for me.Not bothering to reply,I proceed to leave when my back was slammed on the door and his heavy breath hits my neck.
My face remains emotionless as I am hit with his expensive cologne,his blue eyes looking for answers.
"I asked you a question Ana,what the hell happened to you? What do these tattoes and sh** mean?"
He says,placing his hand on my waist,and pulling me forward to make my body land on his chest.
I still didn't look up at him,clenching my jaw to keep my anger at bay.
"Since when do you care? Last I checked,I was just a sl** for you?"
His breathing became heavy as he touched his nose on my jaw,inhaling deeply.His eyes were closed and his other hand moved forward to touch my chin and lift it up harshly.
"So much sass? You are turning me on more with this attitude of yours,love"
I breathe heavily and close my eyes.
Control Ana, don't. He is the Alpha's son,just don't call for trouble.
His nose rubs on my jaw,futile attempts to turn me on and make me moan,but little does he know that ,the old innocent Ana is dead and now the new Ana that stares at him is a rogue,a feral with no place for emotions.
"Step back Sir"
I say with all the hate,I could muster.He smirks under my threat,taking it be a joke.Holding both my hands above my head,he looks into my eyes.
"Why should I when I know you are loving it. You helpless body presssed against mine,your tender wrists in my strong grip,your mind a captive of my words and your lips ,a forbidden fruit for me to savo-"
His words were cut with a scream of agonising pain,his body retreated and hands held his family jewels.
My knee had hit perfectly and the curses leaving his lips were a testimony to it.
"You bit**! How dare you!"
He screams at me and I smirked.Landing another kick on his knee, making him drop down on his knees at my mercy.
He was to be coronated as the Alpha of this pack tomorrow,and here I was ,a mere human signing my death sentence.
Once satisfied with giving him the most deserved punches and kicks,I run from there towards my safety grounds.
But where was safe here?
This territory belonged to him and very soon I will be followed and tracked down,rogue lands were my other option and they were no way less dangerous.Running out of the club,I saw guards following me and that's when I cursed in my mind.
Sh**Ana! I told you to not attack! Now struggle !
I ran as fast my human legs could carry,not caring of the twigs and bushes scratching my skin. Their howls echoed in the silence of the jungle and I sprinted towards the borders.
I have to get out or he will catch me and I know what will happen next.I prefer death over becoming a pet to a man like him.
My legs were becoming sore but I couldn't stop.
My lungs on verge of giving up and my vision going hazy with the alcohol in my system and fatigue in my body.His loud howl roared behind me but I don't stop.
"Stop running from me ! Ana!"
He shouted in my mind but still I refused to stop.Till now I had crossed the boundary of his territory and this somehow filled me with relief.
I was in rogue lands now and there are chances he won't enter this unless he wants a death wish.Everyone knew how deadly and dangerous these lands were.
But I guess I judged him wrong in this, because his steps don't stop as he continues yo follow me and I curse in my mind.
"I said stop ! Fu**!"
He curses ,I know to a wolf I may look like a suicidal human right now.No human enters this territory,even pack wolves are scared. But I don't care,I just wanted to be away from him.
His chase ended when I reached a dead end. A cliff around 1000 meters high and a deep ocean beneath stood in front of me.This is the biggest problem of running in unknown lands,you never know where the forest will end.
His paws hit the ground behind me and he changed into his human.A look of worry evident on his features.
As if?
Give me a break,just how good of an actor can he be? He should be trying for films,I am sure he will prosper.
"Don't even think of doing it An,stop with this and come to me"
He uses his Alpha tone on me,but it didn't matter .Looking back at the depth and my chances to survive.I was taking the most important decision of my life.
"Ana,be rational.We can sit and talk.Just listen to me once love!"
He sounded helpless, begging me to step away from the cliff .Bull*** ,this was just an act. I am telling you he can win an Oscar for his acting.
"Shut up Daniel."
I say and he shows me his palm, offering me to take it and go back to him.
"Ana! Just listen to me! I didn't betray you okay? You are a human and Dad would have never accepted you! I still love you !"
I laughed
Was this man serious,I don't care about it anymore. Who was he trying to convince, himself?
"And why do you still think I would care? Go fu** yourself Alpha Daniel! I don't love you and you better get this into yout thick brain!"
"No! Ana you do! You still care! Just hold my hands and I promise to make it all good. I promise I will talk to Dad-"
I step back and his eyes widen.Let's just give him a chance.If he says he still loves me,why not put it to test.
Even though I already know the answer to it.
"You love me huh?"
I ask, stepping closer to the cliff with my arms open,ready for the jump.His eyes widening in disbelief.
"Yes Ana! I do! Just please hold my hand"
I feel the wind in my hair and it felt refreshing. This will be fun,the expression on his face even better.He can stop the drama now,I was not buying it.
"Prove it"
He had creases on his forehead as I smiled at him.And then tilting my face up to stare at the stars,I push myself back and fall back into the depths of the unknown.
"Anaaaaaaaa!"
He screamed and I smiled. People did called me suicidal at times.But what was the fun in living a normal life.
He stands there with worry evident on his face at the edge of the cliff as I fall down,but he didn't had the guts to jump after me to save the one he proclaimed to love.
Lying Bast***
Closing my eyes,I got ready for my body to hit the water surface ,enjoying the thrill of my game called life.
For happiness doesn't come to those who live for others
Instead it's the gift of those who learn to first love themselves.
And I loved my independent, unpredictable and defiant self.
