“That filthy rogue!” Ashley seethed, storming into the dark dungeon. Her heels clicked furiously on the stone floor, echoing in the eerily quiet prison.

Fists clenched, teeth biting her lips, only one question raged in her mind.

Who the hell was this woman who wanted to take Lucious away from her?

Rumors about a female rogue brought by the Alpha had circulated the pack. Everyone was talking about the rogue like she was something special. Ashley had heard the rumors about they way Lucious had brought her back in his arms. It was crazy because everyone knew the Alpha despised woman. There were even whispers about how he stares at her.

The mere thought of Lucious looking at another woman was enough to make her blood boil.

Lucious belonged to her alone.

No one, especially not a filthy rogue, would dare come closer to him.

Ashley was going to teach that rogue girl a lesson that'll make her regret ever crossing paths with Lucious.

“Miss Ashley?” A guard straightened as the approached the passageway leading to the inner cells. “You can't go in—”

“Move!” She barged her way past the two guards stationed there.

No one would stop her today.

She clutched the bucket of water she held tighter as she approached the cell she was looking for. Stopping before it, her eyes fell on a woman’s figure on the ground and age snarled, splashing the entire bucket of water over her.

A shriek bounced off the walls, followed by a quick gasp as the rogue woke up with a start. Her shocked expression soon morphed into anger as she locked eyes with Ashley and noticed the bucket.

‘She… she's beautiful.’ Ashley thought to herself. No wonder the pack couldn't shut their mouths about her.

“Have you gone mad?” The rogue suddenly growled and stood up. “How dare you—”

“No, how dare you?” Ashley shot back.She finally saw the rogue’s clearly as she stood before her.

Wait, she's just… a child?

Ashely burst into laughter. The rogue didn't even look to be above 18.

“You? You're just a child? How can a small bitch like you try to seduce the Alpha?”

Guards rushed in now but Ashley galore remained on the rogue.

Haven scoffed. “Seduce your Alpha? Oh please,” She chuckled, “Im way beyond your pathetic Alpha’s league. Have you seen me?” She mocked, turning her body around to reveal her perfect.

Haven knew she had been blessed with a killer body. Her curves were powerful to bring any man down to his knees.

She made a deliberate 360 in front of the woman and smirked watching the jealousy burn in her brown eyes.

“Sure, I'm a child. But even your Alpha won't be able to resist this.”

“You insolent bast*rd!” Ashley snarled. “How dare you speak about the Alpha like that!”

Even Ashley couldn't stop the jealousy curling in her stomach at the sight of the rogue's amazing body. And the fact that her beauty surpassed any she had seen before only made her hate the rogue more.

“Guards, seize this girl!” She barked, “Give her 30 lashes of the whip for daring to talk about the Alpha like that!”

The two guards hesitated.

Haven only scoffed, “Jealous bitch.”

Ashley’s face turned red. “What are you waiting for? Seize her!”

“Thats enough!” A man interrupted as two figures walked in.

Haven glanced up to see the crazy Alpha and his Beta. Behind them, more guards arrived.

“Ashley, what are you doing?” Raph reprimanded, grabbing his sister’s arm.

Ashley glared at him. “Leave me, you're hurting me!”

Ashley was Raphael's only sister. She always had for Alpha Lucious but he never spared her a glance as all his attention was on that annoying Natasha. After the news about Natasha’s betrayal spread like wildfire, Ashley had been the happiest. She thought lady luck was finally smiling upon her.

So where on earth had this stupid rogue come from?

“Raph, let go!” She whined trying to yank her arm away in vain.

Beside her, Lucious’ expression darkened. The way the guards around him stared at the rogue made him really… uncomfortable. His eyes had landed on her when he walked in and the moment they did, his breath hitched. The rogue was drenched from head to toe, her silver hair cascading all the way to her waist. And her body…

Gosh that body.

The way her clothes stuck to her beautiful curvy shape, leaving nothing to the imagination.

Something dark stirred in Lucious. He quickly averted his gaze.

What was happening to him?

Realizing how lustfully the guards were still looking at her, a low growl left his lips.

“Enough!” He snapped, his Alpha tone seeping in. The guards winced in pain. Even Raph and Ashley grimaced.

“Alpha?”

“Stop bickering, you two.” He glared at the siblings. “And what are you doing down here, Ashley?”

Ashley stared at him like a deer caught in headlights. “Well… well—”

“She came here to act like a fool, that's what.” The rogue scoffed.

“You!” Ashley’s nostrils flared. “Just shut up!”

“Why don't you shut me up?” Haven provoked, leaning closer to the iron bars. She hated this woman, but provoking her was fun.

“Alpha,” Ashley gripped Lucious, “You have no idea the hideous things this b*tch said about you. I will make her pay—”

“You will do no such thing.” Lucious finally had enough. Ashley’s face dropped when he moved her hand away. “Get out of here, Ashley.”

“B-But this rogue—”

“The rogue is coming with me. Lock her up in my floor.”

“What?” Haven and Ashley yelled simultaneously.

“This isn't right! Let go of me!” Haven struggled as two of the guards grabbed her. “You can't do this to me! You have no right to keep me here! Let go!”

“You're not in a position to tell me what to do, rogue.” Lucious gaze hardened, “Until I find out who you really are, you will stay here. With me.”

Haven yelled and cursed, struggling to free herself as she was dragged away. By the time they arrived at a luxurious apartment, she was exhausted. Getting to a room, she stumbled inside as one of the guards shoved her in and the door was shut behind her.

Haven stumbled forward and fell to the ground. A sharp pain shot up her knee as she landed roughly on the rug forcing her to grit her teeth. She got back to her feet and rushed to the door.

It was locked.

“Damn you people!” She cursed, banging the door loudly. “Open this door right now!”

Haven kicked, pulled, banged and yelled but no one listened.

Exhausted, she finally gave up, walking deeper into the large room. Her knees trembled as she let herself sink to the floor.

From Tristan’s betrayal to being kicked out and now kidnapped by some crazy Alpha, Haven felt a lump forming in her throat. Her knees trembled and she crumbled to the floor, vision slowly blurring with tears.

Haven had never allowed herself to be weak. Even after her parents death, she refused to cry.

But now she was tired.

“Mum, Dad… I miss you so much.” She whispered.

For years she had refused to cry, had refused to show weakness even when her parents died. She had carried her pack on her back even after the rogue attack, only to be betrayed by the man she loved. She was stripped of her birthright and casted out.

And now, because she chose to help a stranger, she was forcefully locked away like a criminal.

A sob escaped Haven’s lips as she finally broke down. The dam inside her broke and all the tears came crashing down. Her eyelids grew heavy. Haven fought to keep them open but failed miserably.

Darkness soon enveloped Haven as she drifted off to sleep.

A few feet away, hidden in the shadows, a pair of eyes was watching Haven. The figure shifted silently, lips curling into a deadly smile.

“Found you.”
