Murdered on my Stepsister and Mate's Wedding Day
Chapter 1
Alice:
"Who's there?" I asked in a loud voice as I halted halfway into the woods. The sound of a snapping twig was what caught my attention.
Someone was in here with me. And the thought of that alone made me scared.
I was late for Tanya's wedding which was the reason I chose to pass this route. She was my stepsister. But was it worth it? My stepsister was getting married to my mate who rejected me all because of a stupid rumor and I'm risking my safety just to attend.
I decided to hasten my steps immediately even without the confirmation of whether or not I was being followed.
The confirmation came when I suddenly heard approaching footsteps. I didn't think it twice before I ventured into running. I could already feel the anxiety radiating through me but it was going to get worse if I didn't make it to Tanya's wedding in time.
The footsteps were getting nearer. Whoever it was was catching up with me already. As I couldn't help it, I had to reach out to my mother. She needed to know my situation as soon as possible.
"Where are you, Alice?" My mother snapped at me immediately she picked up my call. I could hear the disgust in her voice and didn't need to be told that I was the reason for it.
"I'm in trouble, mom. Someone's trying to kill me," I said in a panicky tone.
My tone wasn't convincing enough for her because she snapped again: "You're looking for an excuse not to be at the wedding, aren't you? Even if you have to swim across the deepest sea, you must be here! And I mean it!"
She practically hung up on me. Although my hands were shaky, I tried dialing her line again. However, the phone got knocked off my hands before I could get anything done.
No, I got knocked down to the ground. And before I could react to what just happened, I felt a body mount on me forcefully.
When I got a clear vision who was on top of me, I realized it was a rogue. I tried to fight off the rogue but he seemed to be much stronger than I was as he pinned my hands to the ground while I screamed in fear.
The smell of rum and other mixtures hit my nostrils. And the bad stench that comes from him living in the woods made me want to throw up. Unfortunately, I was about to be his victim.
My screams intensified as he forcefully tore off my pant. I could see his bulge which he took out. The more I resisted while knowing what he intended to do, the more aggressive he was.
I didn't stop screaming even when I felt him inside me. Not even when he increased the intensity of his thrusts. But there was no one to help me.
The tears went down freely from my eyes while my body weakened from the pain of his aggressiveness. I felt something sharp on my neck. The rogue now had a knife to my neck. One slice from him and I would be gone.
"Now, shut up!" His hoarse voice vibrated in my ear as he threatened to deepen the knife into my skin. I could already feel the burn of the silver on my neck but that didn't stop me from trying to fight him off.
I only stopped when the knife went through my skin like he threatened. I found myself losing too much blood and even getting close to passing out.
"Please, stop..." I pleaded with him when I could not bear the pain any longer. My body couldn't take it anymore.
My words might have triggered him because the next thing he did was to deep his fangs into my neck. That one bite ended me almost instantly.
As I took my last breath, I blamed myself for not being careful enough. My phone began to vibrate wherever it was and I was sure it was mother calling me.
I was going to miss the wedding after all.
