Free Web NovelChapter 221: Chapter 221 The snake, The fox and The Wolf
Kiara
Everything is blurry.
My body hurts everywhere, and my head is pounding with the worst headache of all times.
I am moving, but I am not walking on my own two feet. Someone is carrying me, but it is not nice or comfortable. It’s as if they have been pulled over their shoulder like a ragdoll, running at high speed, trying to get as far away from something or someone as possible. I force open one eye, but the movement, my headache and the blurriness makes me close it tightly again. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
I can feel Winter working her best to heal us, but I do not know from what yet. She doesn’t speak to me - she hasn’t spoken to me since the day Maze accused us of cheating. She is as heartbroken as me, and she briefly let me know she’ll need time to grieve. We are both sure Maze is going to reject us, but maybe he just kicked us out and threw us to the demons or rogues out here? No! As much as he is an asshat who jumps to the wrong conclusions, he is not a bad Alpha, and he wouldn’t just throw me out like this. Especially not unconscious.
Unconscious?! Wait! I think I remember something. I think back, fractures of what happened swarming over me. Mira came to the stream where I was painting. She told me she wanted to apologize for her actions. She was the one who orchestrated the scene in my room. She wanted Maze for herself, and she was consumed with jealousy. But she had seen the error in her ways, and she wanted me to know she was leaving the pack, so Maze and I could be together. She told me she had spoken to Maze as well and explained everything. She had seemed so sincere in her words, so when she told me Maze had a surprise for me in a little clearing I had not doubted her words. Of course I should have known better.
As I entered the clearing, Mira pushed me so I fell into the arms of someone, who plunged a syringe into my neck. Everything went dark as I heard Mira order the unfamiliar figure to bring me as far away as possible - alive or dead. She didn’t care.
The person keeps running, and as my senses become more clear and the drug they put into my system leaves it again, I can hear there are more people around us. The person who kidnapped me is not alone. Dread fills me. What do they want with me? I am a nobody - proved so many times now, and I have nothing anyone would want. I can’t even think of a single person who would go through so much trouble to get that.. Oh no. I can think of one person. Please Goddesses, don’t let this be Mason trying to force me back to my old pack.
"We take a break here. We should be far enough away from the pack now. The Alpha will never look this far away for her." A gruff voice orders, and my worst fears are brought to life. The person holding me is none other than Mason. He throws me on the ground, and I land with a thud. I make sure to not move a muscle or make a sound. My survival is based solely on how well I can pretend to be out still. "Don’t worry my sweet evasive mate, I will make sure you are treated well in the dungeons at our pack. You are going to be Luna - not officially of course, but I need you to bear me children. I am going to be invincible with the little hybrid you’ll produce for me. My personal army of misfits!" Mason whispers to me, his face so close I can feel his breath on my skin. It’s making me want to punch him, but I keep still. He licks my chin, moaning. "You taste divine, little freak. Don’t worry. Your Alpha will not come for you. He is very busy at the moment fucking that lunatic to Mira. She and I have a deal. I get you and she gets the world, but leave our pack alone."
"She is still out from the drug boss?" Someone close to us asks. The voice is female, and I slightly remember her as one of the few girls in my school year who never bullied me. I hope my memory is correct.
"Absolutely! We gave her enough, and besides I’ll need her to be out until we get her to our packlands, and preferably until I have marked and mated her." Mason replies with a snicker. Oh fuck no! He is not going to do anything like that to me. I am not going to be his forced mate or some sort of freaky breeder. Not in a million years. Even if Maze couldn’t care less and probably is just happy I am out of his hair, I will never be someone’s mate ever again! And least of all this buffon!
"You intend to mate and mark someone who cannot consent?" The woman asks, and there is disgust in her voice.
"You have a problem with that, Julia?"
"Yeah, actually I do have a fucking problem with that moron. That is wrong in all sorts of ways." Mason growls.
"You dare question your future Alpha, bitch?" The woman, Julia, snorts.
"You are not going to be the future Alpha, Mason. Not now and not ever. Alpha Benjamin has an heir, and it is not this girl. She is innocent, and I only joined this quest because you told us we were rescuing her. Now you are saying you are going to forcibly mate and mark her? Fuck no!" There’s a slap and Julia groans. Mason laughs.
"You are just as weak as her." He sneers. There is a shuffle and Mason groans this time. I think he fell as well.
"Fucking bitch!" He shouts. I dare to slightly open one eye to see what is going on, my stomach churning with concern for Julia. She is standing over Mason, her back to me, but I get the feeling from her stance, that she has her arms crossed.
