"Muddy girl, are you sure?" His deep voice resonated from above me, my hand reached for his belt. "Oh God. Please.. please." Then I felt a whirlwind of sensation as the man pushed me down to the ground, and a fierce kiss landed on my lips. ...... My name's...
Chapter 1
Catherine's POV
“Look at that worthless slut. Why is she here? she doesn't even have a wolf, yet she delusionally seeks her mate. How stupid.”
I stood in the corner of the conference hall, watching the couples come and go while listening to others' malicious gossip about me. I felt both pain and embarrassment.
It was a tradition that werewolves living in New Jersey held a mating ritual in Shadow Forest every year.
Alpha and Luna of every pack would bring their unmated werewolves here, looking for their mates at the ritual.
My father was the powerful Alpha of our pack. He brought me and my stepsister Gina here, hoping we would find our mates.
But I was destined to disappoint him. I don not even have a wolf. Who would want to choose me as a mate? They would only laugh at me.
Thus, once the ritual started, I strolled around with a drink, with no desire to find my mate.
As I was strolling around with a glass of raspberry juice in my hand, I saw my stepsister Gina and her friends.
Although I didn't have a wolf, my hearing was particularly excellent.
Thus, I could hear what she was talking about at a distance.
She was insulting my mom with profanity!
My mom was the last Luna of our pack. She died when I was three years old. Then my father married Gina’s mother.
Before knowing Gina was my father’s illegitimate daughter, I tried to get along well with her. But now, I hate her.
Hearing she was making fun of my deceased mom for being a dumbass and getting ripped off by her mother, anger boiled up inside me. Then I rushed over and spilled berry juice on her face.
"Bitch, stopping slandering my mother, you must apologize!"
Apparently, Gina didn't mind my warning and with a shitty face written with 'so what', then running away under the cover of her friends.
I certainly would not let her go. I went after her right away.
Finally, I found her at the corner, surrounded by her lackeys. As they spotted me, their faces twisted into malicious smiles.
"Hey Catherine, do you want me to apologize?" Gina Wyatt sneered at me.
"Bitch, this is Gina's apology gift to you, drink up."
Soon her lackeys handed me a glass of red wine. Naturally, I was unwilling to consume anything they gave me, but quickly I realized it was not a matter of whether or not, but have to.
Her lackeys restrained me, leaving me no room for resistance. One held me down while the other pressed my chin, forcibly prying open my mouth.
"No! I don't want to drink."
As I was being restrained, I pleaded with the people around me for assistance, but they seemed more eager to witness what would happen next. They all stepped back, fearing that my hands might touch their clothes.
Meanwhile, Gina, like she was watching a show, slowly aimed the glass towards my mouth, and soon I felt the icy liquid flow down my throat into my stomach.
They only released me after confirming that I had finished the red wine.
"That's a good girl, my dear sister. I apologize to you and hope you forgive me." Gina casually patted my shoulder and quickly left with her lackeys, laughing and chatting.
I was bullied by them, but I can not resist them, because I was too weak and I don't have a wolf to protect myself.
What's worse, I felt that the wine they just forced me to drink was poisoned and they must have wanted to see me embarrassed, so need to leave here and find a place to stay as soon as possible.
There's a small bridge near the border of the forest. I went there, from there, I can see the moon reflecting on the lake, I went to the lake and shouted 'Fuck' at the top of my lungs, venting my anger.
Damn Gina, one day she'll regret it..
But the tranquility didn't last long. Soon, I heard footsteps beside me. I turned to see two ugly men trying to approach me.
Instinctively, I tried to flee, but quickly realized there were two men behind me as well, surrounding me.
"Back off! Stay away from me."
I tried to roar at them, assuming a fighting stance, hoping to intimidate them into stopping, but clearly, they weren't scared off. I realized something was wrong with my body: a warmth spread from my abdomen and quickly engulfed me.
Damn it! It was the drink Gina gave me. She did drug it.
I felt my body overcomed by a surge of heat, longing for something cold to ease it, but I forced myself to remain rational.
My situation was perilous now, with four men approaching me with lecherous expressions. I knew I was no match for them at this moment. Looking around, just as their hands were about to touch me, I decisively climbed over the railing and jumped into the lake.
I could hear the men cursing on the surface of the lake. I was actually afraid they would dive in after me, but luckily, they didn't.
The cold water relieved my heat, and I swam in the direction away from the bridge, regardless of whether there was danger in the bordering forest or not. I climbed out of the water straight from the lake.
I ventured deeper into the forest, the heat within me intensifying once again. I felt my vision blur, my nails digging into my flesh, hoping the pain would keep me alert.
I didn't know where I ended up. In the moment when I was about to lose consciousness, I stumbled, and a strong pair of arms caught me.
Suddenly, I caught a whiff of vanilla.
I smelled countless scents before, but I swore none were as enticing as this.
Following the scent, I found it emanating from the man who caught me.
Instantly, a rich vanilla aroma enveloped me. Though my consciousness was hazy, I couldn't see the guy's face, but I knew he wasn't one of my pack members.
"Who are you?" I asked cautiously. His breath was heavy, and I felt him staring at me in the darkness. In this situation, I dared not make any sudden movements.
Suddenly, he lunged at me, pulling me into his arms. My face brushed against his sexy Adam's apple.
The icy sensation of his skin was fatally attractive to me at that moment, and I pressed myself against him, disregarding everything.
Realizing his clothes hindered me, I tugged at his buttons forcefully. His shirt fell open as I stripped him off his clothes, then I attempted to rid myself of my soaked garments.
Until we were about to stand bare before each other, his hand stopped mine.
"Muddy girl, are you sure?" His deep voice resonated from above me, and I didn't give him an answer, but my hand reached for his belt.
The next moment, I felt a whirlwind of sensation as the man pushed me down to the ground, and a fierce kiss landed on my lips.
Damn! It was hotter than mine.
Chapter 2
Catherine's POV
"Are you sure you want this?"
My hand reached his belt, and I knew there was no stopping me now as I cursed under my breath, hating myself for it.
With no more doubts, he grabbed my ass, palmed it with his hand and felt it. It was felt like something I had always longed for, and I didn't even mind the mud, I just wanted more.
The man instantly pressed me back against a tree. He picked me up, my legs crossing his waist as I straddled him whilst he stood.
My weight on him turned him on instantly, my hot hasty breaths on his neck ignited a dark fire, and the way I ravaged his skin as I waited in anticipation brought him to life.
He seemed couldn't wait any longer and pushed in, slowly and slowly until it was all in mine. As soon as he was in, he groaned loudly while I gasped.
He waited while I struggled to adjust to his huge size and when I finally did, I leaned in and he began to glide in and out of mine, fucking me slow and steady.
The feeling of being pounded by him turned me on unexpectedly.
I moaned loudly, the sound seemed to brought heat to his groin. He quickened the pace instantly, fucking me rough and hard as I began to scream.
I kept screaming and screaming, and his gaze caught fire as I began to run my muddy hands all over him. I was sure it was becoming a fetish, one I didn't know I needed but was going to practice more.
I began to trail kisses down his neck, but stopped as soon as he slammed into mine so hard I fell back, crying.
"Oh God. Please.. please."
He finally let me cum with a painful thrust, causing my body to shake vigorously as I lost power over myself.
In the darkness, it was only our satisfied breaths that could be heard, as we were both trying to recover from the mind blowing sex we just had.
Until the night passed.
When the sun stung my eyes, I slowly sat up from the ground and saw scattered clothes and found myself in an unfamiliar forest.
I just fucked a stranger I barely knew inside the shadow forest.
My naked body was covered in bruises, with a man's suit jacket draped over me.
Despite the pain between my legs, I put on my clothes.
My clothes weren't fully dry, still carrying a hint of moisture, and my face was smeared with mud.
The anger surged within me as I thought about the drink that had been drugged.
But then I found that the obsidian pendant given by my mother was missing.
As I searched the forest for my pendant, I suddenly heard a rustling of footsteps, accompanied by loud voices.
"There she is!"
Soon, I saw the faces of my father and stepmother, followed by many onlookers.
"Alpha Wyatt, your daughter had been fooling around with a stranger for a whole night while the entire pack was looking for her. If others knew about it, our pack would be embarrassed!"
Elena put on a surprised look and shouted at my father. After that, Elena looked at me balefully.
Elena snorted and said, "Catherine, you contradicted me and hurt your sister yesterday. No wonder everyone couldn't find you. You had a secret meeting and having fun with men last night."
"No, I wasn't!" I hurriedly explained.
"Look at the hickeys on your neck. Are you still trying to deceive your Alpha?"
I subconsciously covered my neck. The damn man had left many hickeys on my neck.
"Catherine, I'm so disappointed in you." Troy glanced at my neck and then looked at the messy ground, shaking his head.
"It's not like that." I tried my best to expain, "Gina spiked the drink she handed me, and she even arranged for someone to assault me. I only managed to escape by jumping into the water. Later, I encountered a werewolf. I think he is probably my mate."
"Your mate? It's really ridiculous." Elena sneered.
"I know I don't have a wolf, but many werewolves like me have found their mates. Am I right?" I tried to be patient in front of my father, despite my dissatisfaction with Elena's attitude.
Although I was angry about what the man had done to me, I did have a strange feeling yesterday. Yet I didn't know if that was the feeling between mates.
"Don't quibble about what you're doing, and don't have any illusions about your mate." Elena showed great impatience.
"When you were born, a witch made a divination for you and said that you were a werewolf who would never have a mate," Troy said slowly as he looked at me with pity. This came as a shock to me.
"That's impossible! Impossible! How could I not have a mate?" I subconsciously said.
Now I was even more desperate than I had been when I found that I had no wolf at the age of eighteen.
My mind was in turmoil, and I couldn't think calmly at all. Werewolves all lived in groups, and any werewolf without a mate would be lonely for the rest of his life.
"Would your father lie to you?" Elena said mockingly.
Then Elena looked at my father and said, "Darling, I know you are in a dilemma. But Catherine did such an ugly thing, she must be banished. Otherwise, there is no way to explain to the higher-ups of the pack are outside."
Immediately, all the other attendants shouted, "Danished, banished..."
My father raised his hand to signal everyone to stop. I think he must help me out for the sake of my deceased mother.
I lifted my head with such expectations.
Chapter 3
Catherine's POV
"Father... Alpha Wyatt..." I looked at his strange expression and suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Catherine, you're banished now." Troy said seriously, "You no longer belong to the Black Moon Pack."
"I am banished?" For a moment, I was lost for words. After learning that I would never have a mate in my life, I received another piece of bad news. I was banished by my father, by the Alpha of my pack.
This meant that I couldn't live in the Black Moon Pack anymore. Without the protection of the werewolves, I would become a rogue.
After a while, Beta returned and left my luggage at my feet.
"I don't think you realize your current identity." Beta disdainfully looked at me lying on the ground and said, "From now on, you're not the princess but a rogue."
Afterward, Eden left me there and went away with the guards.
I lay on the ground covered with fallen leaves and cried for a long time, with sorrow going deep into my heart.
They've all gone back, leaving me stranded beyond the border line. I've officially become a homeless Rogue.
Since Elena became the new Luna, she had always abused me when my father was away, and my father never believed me.
From then on, I was like a stranger at home.
I tried my best to keep a low profile and live cautiously. What I wanted was just to find my mate and then leave home.
However, my hopes were dashed now.
I wondered, "What should I do...?"
Perhaps because I was too tired from crying, I felt that my consciousness was occupied by someone else again, just as last night. Vaguely, I seemed to hear a voice, which was faint as if it was wrapped in plastic cloth.
I sat up in horror and looked around, but I found nothing except for the rustling of the leaves.
Suddenly, the voice seemed to pierce through the plastic cloth. In the next second, a low and gentle female voice sounded in my mind.
"Hello, Catherine! I am your wolf."
"Hello, Catherine! I am your wolf."
The greeting was echoing in my mind, but I couldn't get it at first.
When I realized that I had heard the voice for real, I subconsciously blurted out, "W-What?"
"Hi! Are you there?" I tried to call to my wolf in my mind.
"Yes, always. You can call me Eva." She replied.
I breathed a sigh of relief when I heard her voice. "Great, Eva. Although I don't know why you came so late... I mean, I thought I would never be able to shift in my entire life. Anyway, I am not that afraid now."
"I didn't mean to be late." Eva's voice was a little low. "It's because I have been trapped in another place before."
"Where are you trapped?" I was puzzled.
"You will know later." Obviously, Eva didn't want to talk more about it.
Eva paused and continued, "You'd better go back to get your luggage as soon as possible and find a place to stay before dark. I can sense that there is more than one rogue in this forest."
"Don't worry. We're one of them now." I wanted to shrug, but I could only shake my fur as I was a wolf now.
"Believe me, you are no match for them," Eva said slowly,
"Because you are pregnant."
W...What?
