After my mate's death

CHAPTER 4 – I am coming, William

Danian’s POV

“How dare that s*ut touch us? Did she think that we came here to sleep with them? You should allow me to come out; I will teach her a lesson that she will never look at a man with her f*cking eyes” Hunter has gone crazy. I removed the blazer and threw it away to wipe her smell on my body.

“Listen, buddy, I know you are pissed, but I didn’t allow her to do anything. Don’t worry, we will find our mate soon,” I mind-linked him.

I didn’t have the mood to go to the mansion; I wanted to release the Hunter and go for a run. I took a few turns from the town and drove far away from the estate. I came about 50 KM at high speed, and I don’t know why and how I suddenly turned my vehicle to the left. It was a bit rocky road ahead with either side forest.

I drove the vehicle about another 500 meters, and the road started narrowing into a car that couldn’t go. I turned off the engine and got out of the car. I stretched my back. I checked my watch and saw that it was 11.30 p.m.

“Perfect time for a run,” Mom must be angry with me for going out at this hour.

I stretched my arms and back and removed my clothes to shift. The darkness was ruling everywhere. I changed within a few seconds, and Hunter was in four paws. Hunter was a dark wolf with a white crescent in the middle of his forehead between his eyes.

“Let’s go, buddy,” I said, and Hunter ran deep into the forest. He wanted this, but I couldn’t allow him to run for a few days because of too much workload I had to end within the day.

“This is awesome, Danian. I wanted to stretch my paws. Shall we do some hunting then?” Hunter was so excited to come out after days.

“Let’s see, who gets the lottery today” I scoffed with a smile. Hunter was a prideful wolf; he didn’t uselessly do hunts. Most of the time, we hunt rogues who don’t have the discipline or are a nuisance. I have disciplined most of the rogues, but a few still roam freely and bother other packs.

Suddenly Hunter stopped and started to sniff from his snout. He was carefully sniffing around the area.

“What is it, buddy?” I never saw him sniffing like that.

“Didn’t you feel it? The intoxicating scent,” he replied. I was inside, so I couldn’t get the scent he was talking about.

“Scent of what? A rogue?” I asked.

“No, it was our mate! Don’t you feel it? The scent mixed with cinnamon and rose petals. She must be lovely,” he said. I got restless when I heard the word mate.

“Are you sure, buddy? It’s passed midnight also; how the hell could we smell the scent of our mate?” I questioned Hunter.

“I can find her wherever she is at any time. Let me trail the scent and find her” Hunter made a happy howl and started to run again. He ran towards the river, stopped near the river bank, and started sniffing around the ground.

I was stunned a little because I never thought I’d meet my mate in a forest at this hour. I thought we would meet in a beautiful, flowery way, like in movies and fairy tales. I am still confused about Hunter’s decision, but he never got wrong about any clue he got.

“Where is she? I don’t see her,” I replied.

“Rogues! Rogues have been here. Mate is in danger” Hunter jumped into the river. The river currents were a bit strong, but Hunter managed to swim to the other side of the river, removed the excess water from his body, and started to sniff again.

“She was here,” he was so sure about it.

“You mean to say that she was a rogue?” I asked. Suddenly a heavy thunder and lightning started.

“I don’t know, maybe she was a rogue, or maybe she was a human who rogues abducted,” he said.

“Hunter, buddy, it will rain, and we should return. We exactly don’t know about this mate thing,” I said.

“Danian, I was never sure like this before, I am sure she was here, and I don’t care about the rain. I will find her tonight” he became stubborn and possessive of the mate.

“Really? How you are going to….” I couldn’t stop the phrase, and the large raindrops started to fall from the sky.

“It’s impossible to find her in this rain, Hunter; you can’t sniff and find her because of the water,” I said. Hunter looked annoying, and he did a painful howl.

“Listen, buddy; I promise we will come tomorrow to find her. We can bring warriors if we want because I am sure that we will have to face some fights. I am suggesting that we should go now” The large raindrops covered his body, and black fur was stuck to his body. Water was pouring from his snout, and he was still not ready to withdraw from the situation.

“Fine, but we have to come tomorrow,” he said sternly.

“Buddy!” saying that we left the place. It was a new feeling for me that hear we have a mate; I thought I would have to accept whoever was proposing to the council or my parents. I know the moon goddess can give us the best, and I trust her.

Samira’s POV

I see the darkness. My eyelashes were too heavy to open. The unstoppable aches from most parts of my body made me weak. My wolf doesn’t talk to me. I slowly started to gain the consciousness I had lost hours before.

Yes, the rogues abducted me from the river bank. They brought me to their dungeons. It was not only a dungeon; it was a torturing cell. I don’t know how many hours or days passed, but they tortured me until I dozed off.

What’s the sin I do to get a punishment like this from my life? Where is the moon goddess to save me? Why does my wolf not talk to me?

I slowly blinked a few times and opened my eyes. They brought me back to the dungeons, where the wall screams about how these rogues were ruthless to their prisoners. The bloody walls were horrible, and the lights were bare to see the surroundings. The tall walls with iron doors brought only the hope that I won’t be able to leave forever. I will die in this dungeon.

I am not worried about myself, my life was f*cked already, but I am concerned about the pack, Marius’s mate, and the pack’s future. Marius was appointed as the beta to destroy the group. I couldn’t reach Alpha; I should have said something to somebody. Foolish me, I ran out to the deep forest and ended up in rogue’s dungeons. I tried to call Alpha, but his mobile was switched off.

I hear the heavy footsteps reaching towards me. They are coming to take me back if I am conscious. I kept lying on the cement floor and shut my eyes. I was shivering, and my clothes were torn during the torture.

“Hey, you bi*tch, I know you are wake up. I brought some food for you; you need strength to tolerate the torture you are going through” I heard his disgusting voice, and his maniac laugh was irritating to my ears.

He said about food, I was hungry, and I needed to have something to my stomach. Otherwise, how will I think of a way to escape from here? I quickly sat but couldn’t walk and started crawling on the floor. When the wounds and the cuts rubbed on the floor, it made me unbearable pain. My healings were not happening because of the unavailability of my wolf.

The dungeon door was opened, and he was standing, blocking the door. He threw the plate of food toward me. It was bread with a few vegetables. That’s fine for the situation.

“W..ater p…le….ase” I barely speak.

“What did you say, poppet? You want what?” he asked with his gritted teeth.

“Wa…ter, I wa…nt water,” I speak again with difficulty. My voice was not coming out because of my weak body.

“You want water then? Here take some; open your mouth, poppet,” he said.

I thought he was going to pour some water into my mouth. So, I opened my mouth, but the water started to taste different, and I threw every single drop. Then I saw that he was peeing in my mouth!

That was disgusting, and I started to vomit all over the floor while I heard the moron laughing at me.

“How was the water poppet?” he was laughing creepily. I crawled back and gathered myself to a corner. I am unsure about the food they gave me; it must be poisoned, or what if I get stomachaches?

“Eat or die!” he said, shutting the vast iron door and walking away. I started to cry alone there, leaning against the bloody cold walls. I was shivering, and my bruises and cuts were giving me pain. Soon I felt that I was getting numbed and cold.

I don’t know how long I dozed off and when I regained consciousness. I was chained to a chair. My arms were tightened to the chair with chains, and my legs were parted and chained to the legs of the chair. I struggled for a few seconds but was not strong enough to release myself from the iron chains.

“Stop struggling, you little c*nt; you are not fit to release from the chains,” a tall figure stood before me.

“Why are…e you d… going th…is to me?” I whispered; my voice was weak, just like my body.

“We have nothing personal with you, but someone gave us a sack of money to torture and kill you!” I could hear what he was saying, but I was too weak to give him an expression.

“So, let’s start the entertainment hour!” I heard another set of steps coming toward the dungeon. I gave up hope of living. There’s no one to save me. My eyes were getting pricked with tears.

I heard the sound of sharp metal tackles; my body was too numbed that I couldn’t feel what they were doing to me. The pain was getting familiar to me. I don’t know how many times they were torturing me.

“What the f*c k was that? Go and look,” I hear a man telling another one. I listened to the painful screams of men like in a dream. The growls, victory howls of wolves, and blood-curling roars were triggered that something was happening outside.

My visions were blurred, but I saw that the iron door of the dungeon was pulled and thrown away by someone or something.

“K…ing we are….” Before the man in front of me completed his phrase, a tall figure tore his body into tiny pieces.

“Mate!”

Was that William? Did he come to save me, or am I hallucinating? Am I dying and going to meet him?

“William, I am c… coming!” that’s all I remember, and the darkness swallowed me.

Dear readers,
