I glanced at the chain and saw it cracked, my brow arched as I wondered what really happened to me now, I’ve never felt this way before, I have never shifted at this length,
Does it mean that as I grow, I will be able to turn into this beast that is inside me,
I was so surprised at the great power I got but one thing I can’t understand was the extent of rage that was boiling in me that moment,
I was so enraged, so angry and all I wanted was to kill, to tear someone apart with my claws and fangs, when I saw the guards, my anger increased,
Elena, you are weird!
I made a deep sigh shutting my eyes tightly, even if I am a Hybrid, what type of hybrid I’m I??
I feel so weak now that I can’t raise any part of my body,
“Elena, what just happened?” Lena my wolf asked and I made a shrug as I got nothing to explain to her, I’m more confused this time,
Just then, the door of my room sprang open and ten bodyguards rushed in with the Alpha my father and Elf the Luna, I stared at them without saying anything,
“She shifted into a demon!!!!” The bodyguards who ran away screamed and I scoffed,
“Elena, you turned to a demon now, is that true?” My father questioned,
“Do I look like someone who turned to a demon?… I’m being starved, I’m weak!” I shrilled forcing out tears from my eyes,
“You can’t fool us!!!… Elf huffed and snatched the whip from one of the bodyguards, she marched towards me making my heartbeat increased,
She lashed my back hard that it tore my skin, I bite my lower lips tightly promising myself not to cry,
I raised my gaze and it fell on her eyes,
“You know you are the demon, just stop all this!!” I huffed to her gritting my teeth, her expression contorted into a smirk,
“You will be banished very soon, I have plans for you” she whispered back and her voice sent shrill all over me,
She lashed me again and I winced, my lips quivering, I glanced at father and he wasn’t moved a bit, he just stared at me angrily like he wished to be the one hitting me,
Oh God, why is he so blind, so blind and stupid, Elf was surely going to strike and succeed if it continues this way, I wish he will find out before they are all wiped out,
“I’ll wipe out everything your mother loved, this pack and Daren!!!!” She howled into my head making it pound,
I shivered and stared into her eyes only to see it was like a cloud of thick black smoke, her teeth had fangs,
I shut my eyes tightly and sniffed,
“You will not succeed!” I retorted and she laughed evilly, I opened my eyes and found out I was the only one who can hear it, she was talking through the mind,
She raised her hand to lash me more hardly
But Scarlett walked at that moment with her brother,
“Mom please let her be!” Scarlett screamed making everyone including me turn to her, I am very sure she hates me so how can she save me now??…is it another trick?
“What are you saying?” Elf gruffed,
“Mom, I will be needing her help tomorrow, Jason would be visiting again, this time he would spend more time and I have to serve him a meal, Mom, Dad, we all know no one in this house can cook a good meal other than her, I want the best for my mate” she grumbled,
“She is a demon and would poison your mate!” Dad huffed leaving me heartbroken,
I hate being called a demon when the real demon stands beside him,
“Dad, she will taste it before serving, I don’t want Jason to find out I’m not good in cooling till he marks me” she muttered with a coy smile that I felt like slapping her,
If only she knows that her head is being used to play football,
They all left,
I breathed and lay my back on the wall leaving it to heal gradually,
Just then, Scarlett returned into the room, I opened my eyes and watched her as she walked over to me and squat,
“You heard what I said about cooking for me right?” She growled and I made a short laugh,
“Since I’m a demon, aren’t you afraid I’ll do something evil to him, and why to ask for my help in cooking?… I guess you should do the cooking yourself so he will see how terrible you are…” I smirked and she slapped me angrily,
“You are a slave!!!…you got no choice!!” She snorted with her face exuding disgust,
“I’ll cook for him…” I smiled and she sneered at me,
“Don’t think anything stupid, your demonic magic won’t work, you will have to taste it too, after cooking, I’ll serve him and you will return to this disgusting place chained, don’t even think you will catch a glimpse of him” she laughed sarcastically,
“Whatever” I shrugged and shut my eyes
“Good for you” she rolled her eyes and walked away,

Elf’s POV,
It was deep into the night when my eyes opened at the scent which filled my nostril,
I arched my brow and sat up immediately,
“Why are you here Torian?!” I asked with a raised brow and just then he appeared with his human body,
“Are you afraid he will get my scent??… I have it covered, I’m here to pass a message to you from the Demon king” he said sitting right on the bed beside me,
“Really??…what is it?” I asked curiously,
“The Dragon king visited the clan!” He announced and I cringed jolting up from the bed instantly,
I had to cover my mouth to muffle my scream,
“Are you kidding me or playing some kinda prank??” I asked with my eyes fluttering,
“I can’t come all the way here to play pranks in you, I’m here for a serious issue!” He muffled standing up too,
“You mean King Bane came to the demon clan?…why?…what is his reason for coming?…please tell me, I’m overly curious now!” I gasped swallowing the lump in my throat, I don’t know why I was this afraid,
My greatest secret which I never want him to know, I don’t want him to ever find out I have turned into a demon wolf, I can still have a chance to be his wife, it can still happen when he is done weeping for Lillian, it is still possible but would be impossible if he finds out I have become a demon!
“Why did he came to the demon clan!!!” I screamed forgetting that I was in my room and Darren was there,
I was lucky Torian was quick to make an enclosure that prevented my scream from spreading,
“Hey, you should calm down or everything would be spoiled!” He wanted but I wasn’t listening to all that, I feel like slitting his throat for taking time to tell me why Babe came to the clan, it is rare, he must have a reason…
I feel like crying now,
“You look so oppressed, you got a secret?” He questioned and I couldn’t hold myself any longer, I slapped him hard across this cheek,
“Please tell me all that happened!!!” I shrieked,
“Okay, King Bane came to clarify the rumour he heard…”
“What rumour???” I asked abruptly,
“Lillian was killed by a demon, that was it, he heard rumours that she was killed by a demon and that was why he came to clarify since he hardly believes gossips,” Torian said and I plopped down on the couch,
“Does he know Lillian is dead?” I asked and he shrugged,
” I can’t tell, he never mentioned if he is sure of her death or not” he added,
“What did the demon king reply to him?” I asked and his eyes dimmed,
“The Demon king knew you were the one and told Bane he will give him reply after investigation” he replied and I went berserk,
“Is he mad???…what investigation?…he knows I’m the one, why didn’t he state it wasn’t any demon!!…is he considering telling Bane the truth?” I asked with a deep growl,
“You guessed it right, he wants to tell the Dragon king Bane that you are the one who killed Lillian!” He said and my eyes widened with my lips. agape,
“Are you joking with me?” I raised my brow,
“I dare not, since he wants to tell Bane the truth, he sent me a message to give you” Torian sighed,
“What fucking message is that asshole sending to me when he wants to sell me out, I thought we are on good terms, why…” I yelped and moved my palm through my hair in frustration,
“I guess he has an idea of your feelings for king Bane” he muttered
“What about it???…” I scowled,
“He wants you” Torian spoke out and my jaw dropped my head pound, I felt dizzy and for some seconds, I couldn’t believe I was hearing well, like my ear might have played a prank on me now…
I looked up to Torian and fluttered my eyes, pinch myself and bite my tongue all to be sure I wasn’t dreaming since it is night already,
“Damon the Demon King wants you to be his mistress, he wrote a love letter and gave me to send to you, he said he was jealous of your feelings for Bane and promised not to tell him you killed Lillian only if you promise to marry him” He relayed and I felt flat on the bed,
I can’t believe this!
I’ll never believe it is true,
“Torian, please tell me this is a joke, I will laugh my ass out at it, tell me you are teasing me, please just say it to me because I can’t believe you, I can’t believe it is true!!!” I half yelled feeling my heart grow heavy,
I couldn’t think straight, his words were resounding in my head sending chills of anger and sadness through me,
“This is the letter, he said he would keep helping you in every way, he was going to give you more powers to destroy this pack as you wished, he would offer all his army just for you to have your heart desires, he wants you to be happy and can’t wait to ha e you back…” He added shattering my heart the more,
Oh, No,
King Bane is the man I love…
“He gave you a week to make a choice, Marry him or he would tell Bane how you killed Lillian!” He stated and disappeared immediately,
Oh…no!
Does it mean I have no chance to be with King Bane after all the sacrifices I made?…even after killing Lilian.
“Really?” I heard Darren’s voice.
What???
