From Omega Orphan to Rogue Queen

Freya’s POV

With the rumors I had heard about him, and how his late father, the former Alpha of the Shadow pack terrorized all neighboring packs, I knew I was going to die.

There was no way I could escape from the most dangerous Alpha that I had ever heard of.

Alpha Damien moved like death itself, silent, fast, merciless. A monster that everyone feared.

Blood splattered onto the ground as he tore the throat of another rogue.

The last one turned to run but Damien caught him in two steps. A snap echoed through the forest, and the Rogue crumpled lifelessly to the ground.

And then, it was just him and me. I had forgotten I was supposed to run away before he got to where I was but I was still standing. Something had held me back and I couldn’t even figure it out.

I couldn’t breathe. My body shook as his glowing red eyes locked onto mine.

I had grown up to know Rogues were monsters. But then, the man that stood before me? He was something worse.

He growled again as he walked closer to me, his hands stained with blood.

Just a few steps away from me, his glowing red eyes started to fade away.

I was scared, deliberating if I should run away. My strength was nothing compared to that of an Alpha, he would catch me if I flinch.

The moment he held my wrist, I closed my eyes, waiting to be struck by his claws. But, a deep growl rumbled from his chest, and this time wasn’t out of rage. It was calm and seemed like he was trying to fight something within himself.

My wolf stirred inside of me, she was restless and confused.

“You are mine,” he gasped.

His words sent a cold shiver down my spine. No way! I only just escaped from one nightmare and now I am going into another.

He was going to take me back to the Shadow Pack, the same home where my mother and I were rejected.

I couldn’t breathe, everything was happening so fast.

Then my mind drifted back to his words. Mine? What did he mean?

The word echoed in my mind, twisting like a knife. He wasn’t just taking me as captive, he just indicated that I was his mate.

That was impossible, I didn’t want to return to the Shadow Pack, not even the thought to be his mate was in my mind.

I was too weak to feel the mate bond, if truly he was right about what he said. And contrary, I was also sure he wouldn’t accept the mate bond. He won’t accept such a weak wolf as his mate.

I took a step back to run, but my body was too weak. My wolf screamed at me to try and escape, but my legs wouldn’t move.

Why was he taking so much time? I thought by now I would already be dead.

Damien didn’t speak again, he didn’t make a step closer either. But I could feel his presence wrapping around me, heavy and inescapable.

He finally came closer, held my wrist and pulled me closer, till I was just an inch away from him. His other hand curled around my waist, his eyes locked in mine.

How was this going to end? I couldn’t tell which I wanted now, but I knew my destiny was at his hands at that moment and I had to wait for his decision.

Finally, my wolf managed to stir inside of me, “He is your mate.”

I shook my head, hesitant, also trying to break free. But the Alpha’s grip was hard.
