Chapter 9

Book:Cursed Alpha's Witch Mate Published:2024-5-1

Sucy said, “Soon.”
Ella’s pulse was pounding so hard that her hands were trembling as she strolled along the peaceful road.
She’s been on the road for a while, but she still hasn’t managed to meet anybody.
Due of the eerie silence, she was terrified to travel there alone. She couldn’t believe it was the same bustling street she’d heard so much traffic on before. This time, it seemed as if she was passing through a desolate wood.
It’s incomprehensible that her own family would treat her this way. Put her in danger of dying by herself? Why??
She hoped not to perish in the process. Knowing that the King had a solid cause for ordering a lockdown made her even more terrified of being discovered.
She approached the cave cautiously and nervously, her hands wrapped about her shoulders. A squeaking noise startled her, but when she looked up she saw that it was simply a bird passing above. Oh! Only the Spirits can keep the bad guys away from her.
As she walked on, the chirpings and squeaking just made her more nervous.
When she saw the cave ahead of her, her eyes welled up with tears. Oh..! Suddenly, she appeared. Yes, she did it!
She shed a tear of relief and started sprinting in its direction. Suddenly, though, she halted when she heard a sound that wasn’t made by birds, insects, or any other flying creature.
No…
This, she knew for sure, she thought. It sounded like a howl; a howl that could only have come from a wolf.
Ella felt a tightness in her chest. Her amazement was palpable as she abruptly spun around to have a peek.
Wow, what a yell….
Like only a wolf could howl. A Wolf!!
No ..!
The woman said, “Oh,” and cupped her palms to her heart.
She had a nagging feeling that something was about to harm her.
She quickly reversed course and headed back in the direction of the cave.
A second scream sounded, this one stronger, and it caused Ella to grimace. Her anxiety and tension had fused into a one overwhelming emotion, and it was making her pulse race. After this it was undeniable that a wolf was in the area. And why is that, exactly? Where??
Surely there couldn’t be no one else defying the King’s instructions but her, could there? Why, therefore, would the wolf be howling to draw attention to itself?
Her brow sweated as she made up her mind to ignore the problem and go on into the cave. She was quite anxious and urgently need transportation.
“You’ll go home with the leaves safely, and this will never happen again.”She said to herself.
When she reached the cave, she saw that the olive leaves were thriving after receiving only a little water. Yes…!
With a deep breath, she pulled up three and turned around to keep sprinting, this time toward home. However, as she turned around, she saw something out of her worst nightmares.
Her pupils widened and glowed with surprise as she peered at the beast before her. A wolf…!!
There, gazing directly at her.
The Wolf in front of her whimpered, its crimson eyes filling Ella with terror.
She backed up, her voice trembling. And like an antelope, she whirled and bolted in the other direction. She was being pursued by the wolf, as shown by its snarl and the rapid movement of its paws.
No…!
Her mouth was gaping as she gasped for air. As the barking and racing paws became closer and louder, a terrified Ella felt something yank her off her feet. “Arghhhh……….!”
As she fell heavily, the olive leaves she had been holding flew from her hands, and her scream reverberated through the woods.
She rolled over on the ground and made eye contact with the most terrifying and stunningly gorgeous creature she had ever seen.
Scary because she thought it would eventually kill her and devour her.
As she gazed at it, her whole body shook with an indescribable terror. Its fiery, threatening eyes were fixed on her as it stood quite near. Radiant red…. Within seconds, Ella let out a gasp. A crimson light in the eyes is a sign of an Alpha. Please don’t tell me that’s true. She recoiled on her haunches, staring at its face the whole while. “Please….” A tear trickled down her face as she sobbed. Ella was too terrified to scream as the wolf let out a resounding growl and bared his sharp teeth. She was sure to die as a result of it…! She looked death in the eye, and it stared back.
“Please….!” Again she moaned and took a few steps backwards while crawling. However, the Wolf advanced until it was so near that it totally engulfed her, rendering her immobile.
To Ella, it was clear that he intended to injure or kill her. To her surprise, she was unable to deduce the reason he hadn’t started doing it.
He raised his declaw and gave her arm a painful scratch. The but
She was paralyzed by terror and couldn’t even lift the pot’s cover.
It resided in one of the vampire community’s clutches and held the title of “Most Powerful” among all of them.
Riverlake,
King William, leader of the vampires, sat on his throne, canine fangs sunk deep into the woman’s neck as he suckled her and she moaned.
