“Is that it? The reason you suck out of the pack was because you’ve found a guy isn’t it? I rolled my eyes. I didn’t sneak out o the pack, there was absolutely no point I was going to get caught either way with the way he had me heavily surrounded,
“I don’t need to find a guy to want to sneak out, I think I am perfectly capable of doing that on my own” he rolled his eyes
“Please Lucia, your life revolves with love, the only thing that would give you motivation, is the idea of someone loving you” he snorted again, this time in a degrading he said “as it someone could ever love you. Your perfectly sculptured body is the only thing that makes you desitable” he spat “you’re not beautiful enough, even your parents didn’t want you that they decided they wanted nothing to do with you that they abandoned you, Let’s face it Lac. I’m what is best for you! You know why?”
The tears that gathered in my eyes fell as I looked into his eyes. He meant it; he meant every word he said. I luckily went out without him stopping me, I felt lost, so lost. I didn’t know who to goto, I ran straight to my room, slamming the door shut, and breaking down…
He was right. I always goted on him, hoping for the day I would be mated to him and having the fairy tale life that I forgot to be a person. Now, I feel lost. I didn’t know what to do,
I let out another gut wrenching sob I needed someone by my side. “Mum” I thought of ma’am marie in that moment, thinking of how she would have comforted me in moments like this.
I wanted, no needed to get out of here, after experiencing days of bliss, I wanted to go back. My mind thought more and more of Helios. The few times we saw, and how he made me happy.
my life starting to revolve around him? I thought to myself as drifted off to sleep. There had to be more to me than just my
I felt tired. I felt myself drifting into sleep as I thought of a tall pale skin, white headed man.
I woke up sometime in the afternoon, feeling a bit more refreshed. awned standing up to my feet, to continue my quest of looking for ma’am.
Hopefully, I wasn’t going to run into him anymore. I felt like I was going to kill him if I did.!
I stretched my hand, holding the knob of the door when it swung open, hitting me in the process. I hissed, withdrawing my hand from the pain
“fuck!” I murmured
“is this how you want to play it?” Camille said, having this crazed look in her eyes. I should have known you are nothing but an attention seeker” she snorted looking me up and down and then walking into the room, shutting the door firmly behind her.
“look, I don’t know what you are talking about but-”
really? That is what you are going with?” she looked at me. I don’t know how I knew it, but she was feeling more and more enraged.” you disappear for days just so you can get a reaction out of Kaden” she snorted again, yanking my hair almost out of its roots. “I hope it was worth your mum taking the fall though she whispered the last part letting go of my hair.
I felt my blood cool down at the last sentence she said. I had to force myself not to go into panic. “as long as you are in this pack, I would say watch your back… Lucia” she called my name with a sinister voice that I barely got the way she pronounced it out of my

because of me didn’t sit right with me
Or worse, what if they banished her from the pack till I returned. I was sweating bullets. Her wolf had died when her mate died. She was as good as an old defenceless woman, I shook my head. There was no way Kaden would do that.
I mean she was literally a second num to him, he wouldn’t.

I tried to convince
over that it was not like that and Camille was just trying to scare me, there was actually no way Kaden would do anything rash. But the over thinker in me would not let it be.
knock knock “dinner” a voice from outside said.
I looked out the window, not believing that it was dinner time already. Had I really stayed inside all day?
I nodded. I could find out among other pack members during the dinner, it would not be a hard thing since to gossip about my life was their favourite thing to do.
I was certain someone was going to talk about where ma’am Marie was, or at least I could ask Kaden. The thought of that was Immediately turned down before 1 even matured the thought I would rather bite my own arm off.
I walked out of the room, making myself as invisible as I walked to the isle to get my food.
It was a futile attempt of course as immediately I stepped into the kitchen, all eyes were on me.
“umm, I’m… I want to” I sighed, screaming with irritation on the inside. I had practised these words on my way downI
“your meal was kept already on the table.” The cook said, saving me the time of embarrassing myself

The all begun to dig in to their food when Kaden and Camille sat. I dug in as well, only stopping when I was about to swallow. food smelled exactly the same way the cake had on my birthday. The same cake Sam had tasted and almost died.
I couldn’t get the nagging feeling out of my mind, the cake was poisoned.
