Beauty Tames The Beast Chapter 1 ONE

Unknown POV

Darkness.

My life had always been like this, the moment I learned to cherish life itself.

Since then, the only thing I could see was red, the only thing I could smell was blood, the only thing I could hear were screams, and the only thing I could taste were iron flesh. All my senses are heightened to kill, but the only thing I'm hesitant to touch was...

This?

Unfathomable depths of unfilled spaces hovering over my line of sights, until one mere moment, sparks of lights speckled over through the abyss of my senses. It was still faint, as if, it just currently sprang to life, but I was sure it was coming from someone near.

My vision slowly cleared as I took in the source of crying in front of me. Something wrapped inside a basket with masses of rags topping it. I quickly, yet carefully unwrapped the clothing covering it as it cries seems muffled. As I did, something in me stirs, the beast in me is on the edge and both our attention was focused on what's inside the bundle.

An infant?

The little thing cried louder and I'm tempted to end its life right here right now, but I can't seem to. I finally moved up to leave it, while having a mental conflict over my beast for control. He wants to hold it and I don't, though I know part of me wants to.

"Fuck it!" I snapped, sitting back down and glaring at the little bundle. I leaned down closer to it and sniffed it's scent. Vanilla...

I haven't even realized I've leaned in too close, until its little hand touched my nose. Sparks erupted from where it touched, causing my eyes to jolt open in surprise. What's this? It's almost pleasurable to hurt, and I've never felt something like this before...

My beast purred at the sensation, and the longing itself had made me bury my face in the tiny figure. I only snapped back to reality, when it started stirring and talking gibberish.

I huffed and sat back, frowning as the little creature now had a huge smile on its sweet face.

"So, you're a girl, huh?" I mumbled, lightly poking her as she struggled to crawl on her knees, out of the object she's in. "Rest assured, you're going go die here, sweetie." I laughed out harshly, which sounded like I've been choked.

Hearing this she turned towards me, her blue orbs widened in curiosity as she titled her head sideways. I'd say its too adorable that even I can't hide the smile creeping up my face.

I growled in attempt to scare her, though she just giggled me off. What a weird cookie.

I finally decided to move up once more due to the footsteps approaching from a mile away. And no, I can't take that kid even though most of me wants to just keep it under my pocket my whole life. Though, likely, I can't.

Realizing my movement, she started to cry, and not a even a second had passed, I found myself kneeling back down to her.

"Damn it!" I cursed, balling my fist in irritation. I've never been attached to beings like her before, to be exact I've never been attached to anyone for hundreds of years I've been living. But, the only thing I know is that I can't take her with me, I can't let her die either. Knowing the fact that she's outside a pack's territory and she's human, she'll likely end up dead the moment I turn my back away from her.

The footsteps approaching fastened and a plan immediately creeps its way to my head.

I took the little thing on my arms, making sure I'm only touching the basket, not the body, and wrap my aura on both of us to hide in our presence. It's sort of a superficial thing, since I have a beast in me, not a wolf.

I hid behind a tree to watch my two pursuers. If it wasn't for this child I'm holding, I should've just end their lives for stepping onto my territory. Both me and my beast don't like it when somebody's stepping over what's ours, and I've claimed this land centuries ago!

"Alpha, are you sure you heard something?" A nervous looking boy with spiky hair asked.

"I'm sure." The other one with charming appearance mumbled, sniffing his way amidst the trees. Well, that's kinda surprising, who in their right mind would let their little future heir roam around the beast's den? Not like I'm complaining having this one here.

"Um, I think we're not in the pack grounds anymore." The spiky dude gulped. "I think we're in the beast's purgatory." Yeah, that's what they call my loving sweet home.

Just as I was about to do something to scare them off, more paws rummaging through my territory sounded from afar. Not a minute later, figures of about three more wolves appeared.

"Daniel!" A woman's voice cried the moment the three of them shifted.

"Hear me out!" The little Alpha, Daniel, spoke in defense. "I heard crying, it could be a child!"

"Do you even know where you are!?" The man boomed from behind the woman, whom I think was the real Alpha. I don't know, since in my sights, I'm pretty sure they're all the same flies.

The little kid must've heard shouting as she started to cry once more. Having finally enough of their presence here, I made my own presence known towards my pursuers. And who in their right mind would came shouting around my territory anyway?

Once I stepped out of the tree, all heads were snapped towards me. I can't miss the horror their faces plastered as the took in a defensive stance. The moon goddess should've think twice before cursing me, since we both know that no one could literally defeat me.

"Step back." The Alpha instructed, and I couldn't help but make a tauting step towards them, my eyes slowly blinded with red once again.

I was about to lunged when the infant began to cry louder. "Damn, girl, you're annoying!" I growled, yet she just gurgled and squeaked at me. I found myself calming down before snapping back to the souls before me.

Without saying another word, I bent on one knee, lowered the basket down, and left a small tap on the child's forehead. That way, I could prevent her away from harm and recognize her soul whenever she might be. I then stood up and slowly backed away from them as they're quite wary of my movements.

"Take her and I'll spare your lives." My voice came out as demanding as it seemed. "Raise her with care, spoil her with love and if I ever see a single scratch on her, consequences shall be applied."

The woman walked closer to the basket, together with Daniel on her heels, even though the Alpha's looks of disapproval, he can't help but shut his mouth and walk beside her, cautiously with the other man and kid behind them.

"Such a sweet soul." The lady cooed. "What shall be her name, your highness?"

I cringed at that title, though I ignored it and proceeded on thinking a name. I've got lots of it, I don't know where it all came from but it didn't help when my beast interrupts with my thoughts.

So, it is either Charlotte, Amanda, Claire, Sylvia, Audree... Goddess!

"Diana." My mouth absentmindedly spoke. "Call her Diana."

He advanced to level our faces only inches away, his minty breath fanning my face, taking my own breath away. I snapped my head sideways in a rush, I won't let him get what he wants. Not again! "Artemis," He growls at my protest. "Okay, I'll stay, but please don't get too near me!" "That's not what I meant, I'll likely tie you on bed if I have to just to make you stay." Okay, let's just pretend that doesn't sound weird and scary of him at all. "But, that's not what I really meant." He brought his hand up to cup my face and his thumb to caress my lips in deep longing. I looked at him to find him already looking at me-- or more like, at my lips. "Oh..." Mouthing as realization dawned on me. My eyes flutters down, watching him bite his lower lip as if that act alone could restrain him from fighting off his desire. "Well, fuck it..." I mumble lowly, yet he's already inches away from meeting our mouths and took my words the other way 'round as enough clarification for him to kill the existing distance and give a huge advantage for my fist. And that's one point for Artemis. ****** They say opposites attract, but what happens when the cop and the criminal end up being mates?

HONEY MULLINS

Six years ago, I was a naive girl sold by my father to the powerful Sanders estate, only to be tossed onto the streets after a brutal assault they labeled "marital infidelity." I fled the country pregnant and broken, hiding from the shadow of a husband I had never even met. Now, I've returned to New York with my triplets to sign the final divorce papers and disappear forever. But Archibald Sanders-the man I was told was a crippled recluse-intercepted us with the cold precision of a predator. He didn't see the woman his family destroyed; he saw a gold-digger who had shamed his name. His security team hunted us to a grimy motel, using tactical force to snatch my children away and drag me to his glass-walled empire. In his office, he loomed over me, demanding a DNA test and threatening to throw me in prison while my babies were lost to the foster system. He was convinced I'd cheated, yet he stared at my sons with a haunting confusion, unable to ignore the stormy blue eyes that were a perfect mirror of his own. I stood there, paralyzed by his scent-the sharp tang of rain and expensive leather that triggered the icy dread of my worst nightmares. How could he accuse me of betrayal when he felt exactly like the monster who had shattered my life in that dark hotel room? "I'll sign anything," I sobbed, "just give me my kids." But the game changed when my five-year-old son hacked the tower's security, holding the skyscraper hostage to save me. In the chaos, a fragile, silent boy-Archibald's secret son-wandered into the room and reached for me as if I were his missing soul. Archibald's face turned to stone as he tore up the agreement and locked the doors. "Until I find out why my son is looking at you like that," he growled, "you aren't going anywhere."

The Silent Bride's Billion Dollar Contract

The Silent Bride's Billion Dollar Contract

Landslide

My bank account showed exactly $42.18, and my student loan notifications were flashing red. I lived in a sweltering Queens apartment with my Aunt Lydia, where the air was thick with the smell of stale frying oil and the constant threat of being homeless. Lydia handed me a grainy photo of a man twice my age and told me she had already "sold" me to him. He was a dry cleaner looking for a wife, and in exchange for my hand, he would pay off her credit cards and my debt. If I didn't show up for the date that night, my boxes would be on the curb by midnight. I arrived at the cafe in a state of panic, my selective mutism making it impossible to even breathe. In the crowded room, I accidentally sat at the wrong table. Instead of the man from the photo, I found myself facing Gerhard Holcomb—the cold, terrifyingly handsome billionaire whose family owned the very museum where I worked. He didn't send me away; instead, he studied my trembling hands and offered me a different deal: a two-year contract marriage, a two-million-dollar payout, and a strict clause forbidding any children. I signed the papers and moved into his Park Avenue penthouse, thinking I was finally safe. But when I went back to the old apartment to retrieve the only memento of my dead parents, Lydia lashed out, leaving me bleeding from a head wound. Gerhard’s retaliation was absolute—he had her arrested and her building foreclosed on within hours, claiming he was simply "protecting his assets." As I recovered in his silent, glass-walled home, I saw a call from a famous socialite flash on his phone, and a cold truth settled in my gut. I wasn't just a wife; I was a placeholder, a silent shield used to fend off the women from his past. I looked at the massive pink diamond on my finger and realized the silence I had lived in my whole life was about to become my most expensive prison. I had traded a life of poverty for a high-stakes game of shadows, and now I had to survive the man who claimed to own me.

SHANA GRAY

The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her. Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead. A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living. Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body. Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back.
