Introduction
I had everything in life. I was the heir to a kingdom, I was royalty, and I was young, vibrant and full of life. I was betrothed to a prince, royal knight of his homeland. Chase and I would have been happy together, we would continue our parent's legacy to pass to our own children. But something changed all that, it was a change of heart I had fallen for another...
He had taken me for rebellion, yet we could never be. He was a werewolf... He was the alpha of the woodland pack; they were banished by my father long ago. They waited in the woodlands for their chance to strike at the kingdom I was the answer.
It was our one law in the woodlands; no one was to have anything to do with the woodland pack. Those who did were banished to join them if they pleased. This was the life I had to live, the life of a perfect or well almost perfect princess.
Chapter 1: Change of Plans
Andrea's (POV)
I awoke to a lone robin chirping at my window, I got up and looked out my window over the kingdom of woodland. The sun gave off a light yellow shade off the rooftops of the city below; each house and store cast a shadow along the streets. The forest was a strong green that warmed the soul, yet under the trees was a dangerous place. The bastard werewolves roamed the woods, always in wait. "My lady your father wants you in the courtyard!" I sighed my maid seemed to always be a little too loud; I changed my clothes and began my walk outside.
The courtyard was a wide open field that was surrounded by the castle wall, the grass was bright green and freshly lined with dew. There stood my father just near the pond with his horse; my father alone was a proud man. His face had a chiseled jawline, his hair hung down to his shoulders it was curled and colored grey. His eyes strong spirited and tinted green, he smiled at me warmly his beard moved with his smile it made me giggle.
"Good morning my dear Andrea." I curtsied slightly "morning father." He walked towards me and hugged me, I always loved my father's hugs I always felt safe. "What did you need father my maid said you wanted me for something?" "Yes dear, I wanted to tell you Chase will be on his way soon and you two are to ride to the kingdom of sand..." I swallowed hard, "but father that's through the forest..." He sighed a long sigh, "I know dear... But! You'll be protected, Chase will be by your side and escorted by the finest knights."
I nodded, though I still didn't want to go. The werewolves would be waiting; he waved me away and went back to tending his horse. I myself hadn't seen my horse in a while so I went to the stables. There stood my majestic stallion Sheath; his long black wavy mane slung down his neck, his long black tail had the same wave like pattern. His coat a beautiful jet black had a wonderful shine to it. Though he was a Friesian the groomsmen made him seem more than he really was, he caught sight of me and whinnied excitedly. "Good morning Sheath I see the groom has beat me to feeding you breakfast yet again." He nuzzled my stomach, sadly I couldn't stay a patted his rump and walked back inside.
The castle was lonely at times yet it was home, hours seemed to tick by as I awaited Chase's arrival. The sun soon began to descend from the sky; I now waited on the town bridge atop Sheath. "At this rate boy we may need to pitch camp... I don't want to do that..." I soon saw horses trotting up our way, there at the front was chase, his amber hair shun down to his ears, his bright blue eyes reflected the rays of light. And his smile shun like a diamond, I blushed as he rode to me. "Good day my lady Andrea, you look wonderful." I bowed a greeting atop Sheath, "I am fine Chase, how are you might I ask?" He halted beside me and grasped my hand to kiss it, "better now that you're beside me." I blushed, he smiled softly at me. "Shall we ride men?!" "Aye!" The knights accompanying him shouted, we picked up a steady pacing trot towards the woodlands my heart began to pound.
Hours passed the night was now above us, the stars and moon providing just glimpses of light other than the torches we beard. "Sir perhaps we should set camp for the night, the horses are getting overwhelmed..." Beside me Chase sighed, "fine but we must take shifts sleeping we cannot and will not sleep leaving Andrea vulnerable. I blushed when he smiled proudly at me, "alright men let's set up!" I stayed atop Sheath and watched as Chase and the royal knights pitched camp, when they finished a fire was lit and Chase helped me off Sheath and tethered him to a tree next to his horse.
I twined my arm with his as he escorted me to a log near the fire to rest, "everything will be fine my lady." I laughed "when did become your lady?" I mocked playfully. He smiled and leans his forehead against mine, "since I was promised you." I blushed he leaned and kissed me gently, I pushed more into it. His hands fell to my waist and my arms snaked around his neck. He pulled me closer as his hands began to slide down from my waist; I pulled away "Chase we have to wait for marriage..." He sighed "I know but what I have to you is too strong, I want you so badly Andrea..." He pulled me closer I pushed him back, "Chase I mean it we must wait…" I heard him groan I sighed and sat away from him, he didn't even argue. What did I do? I thought, why can't he respect mine and my family's wish for me to stay pure till after our wedding? "I'm going to bed… Where is my tent?" The captain of the guard came forward, "this way my lady." He led me to a large tent near where the horses were tethered, I assumed just in case I needed a quick escape. I walked into my tent, it was quite large for just one person, I began to untie the corset strings at the back of my gown. I heaved a long breath and let the dress fall off my body, I had remember to pack my night gown in case we had to set up camp like we did. I pulled it onto my body with ease and laid down onto the small bed I had been given, the air was lukewarm and smelt of sweet pine from the forest. I heard a silent howl in the distance yet thought nothing of it. My mind slowly began to drift away into the night; I had let my fragile body go and drifted into sleep.
"Chase to your left!" I shot up out of bed to hear the mean screaming and the horses neighing wildly, I burst through the tent drapes to see the royal guard and Chase fighting bandits! I screamed and the bandits saw me, one had run towards me blade drawn Chase had slammed into the boy and knocked him over. "Andrea run!" "Chase where's Sheath?!" he grabbed my shoulders, "who gives a damn about the horse just run; I'll come find you when it's safe!" With that he shoved me in a direction and went back to the fight. I took off running in only what I wore to bed, changing wasn't an option. My feet dug into the fresh soil as I ran through the woods, my heart pounded in me chest and my lungs gasped for air. I tripped breathing heavily, "I-I can't keep running, I-I don't know where I'm going…" I heard rustling in the bushes ahead of me, my body shivered. I could feel the goose bumps rising. Two boys about maybe three years older than I emerged from them, the one further ahead of the other was much taller. His eyes wear as black as a ravens feathers, his hair was shaggy down to his ears and golden brown. His body from what I could see was well built.
The other boy who was with him stood just at his height, he had blonde short hair much like Chase's hair. His eyes sparkled gold he too had a well built body. "Well, well, well what have we here Derek?" The golden brown haired boy spoke to the other, "looks like a royal wanderer Carter." Replied the blonde boy, I eyed them carefully. "What do you want from me..?" My voice shook as I spoke; they slowly began stepping towards me. "Well you see sweetheart I'm Carter and my brother Derek and I were ordered to attack your camp." The boy called Carter winked at me when he said that, "who ordered you..?" I questioned. They laughed coldly, and moved even closer. "Well you see sweetie our 'Alpha' ordered us." I froze. Alpha...? The Woodland pack! Oh god no… No! No! No! I screamed in my thoughts, they laughed again. "What's wrong 'your highness'?!" Carter emphasized the highness part of when he spoke. "What does the Alpha want from my family?" Carter looked at me, "well I honestly don't know… But I'll tell you what I want form you."
I swallowed hard and hoarsely asked, "What..?" he smiled cruelly before answering, "I want some fun." "No!" I screamed and turned to run, "Derek get her!" Carter had ordered the other boy after me, he quickly caught me by my waist I tried to scream but his hand muffled the sound. The boys had carried me off into the night hollering and howling together at my capture. I squirmed and fought them as best I could but they were too strong, we came upon and open valley way after hours of walking. It was the valley of Full Moon Mountain, in the middle were six log houses stood. The woodland pack territory… we walked to one of the houses and Carter had kicked the door open, there was a makeshift hay bed in a corner with a wooden steak sticking out of the floor just a little ways away from it. They walked in and they threw me down onto it, Carter had quickly pounced on me to tie my wrists to the steak.
"Derek watch the door for the others return, I'll go first." He eyed me hungrily as the boy Derek stepped outside. I struggled furiously against the ties Carter laughed; suddenly he lunged and straddled me to the hay bed. I whimpered "please… Please don't do this…" He breathed in heavily and ran his finger gently along my thigh making me gasp at his touch. He leaned in and whispered in my ear, "Tonight I taste royalty…" I screamed when he bit my collar bone, I pulled at the ties. He grabbed a chunk of my hair in his hands and forced his lips against mine; he sucked my lip into his mouth and bit it forcefully drawing blood. I felt the tears stream from my eyes; he soon lapped up the blood and drove his knee between my legs. "Stop… I beg you… I'll give you anything!" I pleaded to this boy; he drew a blade from his pocket and placed it between my breasts. "Right now I want you!" with a swift motion he cut my night gown and ripped it from my body. He began massaging each breast with his hands as he forcefully kissed his way down my body, soft moans would escape my mouth with each kiss. When his lips reached my waist line I managed to push him back and clamp my legs shut, "ah, ah, ah" he mocked as he dug his nails into my thighs and pried my legs apart. He hoisted each leg onto his shoulders and licked the blood he had drawn with his nails. My cries and pleads became louder, he began stroking down below and I was helpless with my fearful moans. He forced his finger deep in me and I screamed, in and out he went I shivered at the feel.
He pulled it out and laughed, "Your highness you're flowing like a creak." I groaned and he laughed even louder, I saw him lower his head. Suddenly he had forced his tongue into me as well, I gasped. I moaned and cried not being able to help myself. When he finished he slammed his lips back onto mine, "don't you like 'tasting' yourself." His voice trying to coo me, I spat in his face which only angered him; he drew his hand and back handed me. He grabbed my jaw and looked into my eyes, "you're going to like me taking your purity sweetheart!" He quickly unbuckled his pants and dropped them to his ankles I squirmed and pulled, his nails once again digging into my thighs prying them open, "no!" I screamed he was just about to force his full length into me when the door burst open and his brother was thrown into the wall. Carter sat up and quickly pulled his pants back up, "Derek!" suddenly a larger boy came through the door and grabbed Carter by the neck hoisting him into the air. The boy stood taller than Carter and his brother, his eyes locked on Carter's face they were colored grey and held fury. His brown hair fell to just below his ears at the sides and fell to his shoulders at the back and was dark brown; his body was as built as the others. I eyed him as he held Carter there. "What have you done?! You stupid insolent fuck!" he tossed Carter against the wall, he landed on his brother. "Beau why are you back so early?!" "Never mind why I'm back so early! What are you doing to her?!" Carter held his tongue the boy walked to him and shoved his foot into his stomach forcing Carter to cough, "I told you two bastards to capture the princess and keep her here! Not rape her!"
The boys coward at the brown haired boy, he must be the Alpha. "Beau I'm sorry! I couldn't help myself! Her body, her looks!" without another word the Alpha walked towards me, I was shaking, trickles of blood still remained on my legs and my mouth was dripping it from being bit. He looked down upon me, "welcome to our territory princess…" he bent down and untied me; I quickly covered myself with my torn dress. He eyed me steadily, his grey eyes holding onto mine. "Come with me, now!" I followed him from the one logged house I was in, keeping my night gown wrapped around me. We came to the largest house of the six and he shoved me through the door, he had slammed it behind me and soon after gave me a stern look. "Alright princess this is how this is going to work, you play the helpless damsel role and we play the kidnapers. We are going to keep you hidden here safe and sound until your father give us what we want." I shuddered, "and what is it you want..?" He came closer to me and eyed my body, then looked back at my brown eyes. "We want our freedom again… We want to be free and not banished!" his voice raised as he finished telling me, I cowered slightly. "There is a dress for you in that room you might want to put it on." He came closer to me and smiled slyly, "because Carter was right it's hard to resist you…" I shoved him away and he laughed coldly, "enjoy it hear princess, because you're here for a long time!"
Chase's (POV)
"Sir wake up! Wake up sir!" I heard a guard yelling at me as I slept, I had no idea what for. Then it hit me I shot up, the sight I saw haunted me. Men scattered, some injured and some dead! I frantically searched the campsite for Andrea; she was nowhere to be seen. "What happened?! Where's Andrea?!" The guard eyed me uneasily, "we haven't seen her since you told her to run… She didn't take Sheath; she must have tried to run to the Sand Kingdom." I hoped atop my horse and took off galloping along the trials, please be out here please. I begged myself she was alive, the wind wisped through my hair as my horse and I rode. Suddenly I forced my horse to skid to a stop on the trail, but it was too soon. I flipped over his neck and landed on the ground and slid, I looked up in horror right in the middle of the trail hung a body of a young guard who had accompanied us. Through his chest plate a knife stuck out holding a piece of paper, it was almost covered in his blood but still readable, I quickly grabbed it and my heart sank. 'We have her, and with our howls we rejoice!' The Woodland pack basterds have her!
Andrea's (POV)
It had been three days since I got here; I knew only three of the boy's names Carter and his brother Derek and their Alpha Beau. I was kept in a locked room in Beau's house; it was a decent size but needed a good cleaning. The corners covered in webs, the bed a small pile of hay with two blankest and a small pillow leaking feathers. I gazed at the wooden walls that were chipping away; it was run down and wasn't used in years by the look. I had but only one window at the back that gazed out to a large lake behind the houses, as horrible as this place was the valley they lived in was beautiful. I walked to the window and ran my fingers along the curtains. They were dark red almost brown but soft to the touch, even though they were torn if I didn't want the light let in they could help with it. "This is my home now… I hope Chase rescues me soon…" The thought of him rescuing me and holding me again gave me butterflies.
My first story here let me know what you think :3 would love some feedback from everybody :D
