Bride of the Cursed Alpha (Auren and Lucien) novel Chapter 206

Chapter 206

Third POV

Sheena’s heart raced as she glanced around the house. There was no one except the stupid house–help. When the girl didn’t respond to her question, she went to her and shook her by holding her shoulders. “Where is she? Where did she go?” she asked, frustration lacing her words.

The girl jerked away, clenching her jaw. She let out a low growl. Even though she was just an omega, these humans didn’t know that she was stronger than them. She stepped away and replied. “I told you, I don’t know. They didn’t tell me where they went!”

“Let’s go out,” Ozra said. “We are wasting our time.” Then she looked at the house–help. “Did Tamara say anything about dinner with us? She was the one who invited us for dinner. I can’t believe that she ditched us.”

The girl shrugged, clearly confused. “She didn’t say anything about dinner with you two.”

“When are they returning?” Sheena asked.

“I don’t know,” the girl replied. “Maybe never. Maybe tomorrow. But I think they have gone on a long vacation.”

Clenching her fists, Ozra walked out of the house with Sheena following her. When she was on the porch, she said in a cold voice. “This doesn’t make sense. Did she message you? We were supposed to bring her to Selothis. Selothis is waiting, and if we don’t bring her-”

“I know, Ozra!” Sheena snapped, her hands shaking as she tried her best to understand the situation. They all had made elaborate plans to trap Tamara, and here they were standing like fools with no Tamara or her family in sight. “If we leave without Tamara, Selothis will kill us,” she whispered.

“We can’t just stand here,” Ozra growled, pacing back and forth. “We need to find out where she is.”

It wasn’t the weight of failure that pressed on her chest, suffocating her. It was the fear of Selothis. Her hands trembled with panic. She didn’t want to think what Selothis would do. She took out her phone to check messages from Tamara, but there were none. So she called her, but the phone went unanswered. “Damn it!” she cursed under her breath. She turned to Ozra with wild eyes, “What do we do now?”

A muscle feathered in Ozra’s jaw. “We run. And we wish that Selathis never finds us. Because if he does, then he will kill us.”

They hurried to their car and drove as fast as possible, desperate to escape. Both of them would keep looking if someone was following them. When they finally left the town, they were somewhat relieved.

“I swear, I’ll never associate myself with any cult

“It’s not so easy!” Ozra replied, lighting a cige

Sheena said, “I thought it was so cool to be a part of it.

all I want is to be away from them.”

“Okay!” Shenna said as she wiped the sweat from her brows, wondering what other men must be doing now.

They were an hour into the highway when they noticed three motorcycles training them. “Fuck!” Ozra rasped. “They’ve found us. Drive faster!”

Sheena panicked all the more. She drove fast but she couldn’t outrun the men. Then soon caught up with them. One of them pointed a gun at their tice and shot. The car screeched to a halt immediately as Sheena and Ozra screamed. Two men jumped from their motorcycle. They opened the door, grabbed them by arms and pulled them out. There was no way out. They were trapped. Sheena knew that the men didn’t care about their excuses. They would bring them straight to Selothis.

They were standing in front of Selothis in less than two hours with their hands tied behind their backs.

“Leave” Selethis’s voice boomed in the hall, making Sheena and Ozra shiver.

The men left, the echoes of thell boots bouncing off the cold stone wall.

Chapter 206

Standing in the darkness of the hall, Selothis looked like a towering figure of power and rage. Shadows clung to him like a cloak, swirling around him as if they loved him. Sheena let out a squeak when she saw a faint glow in his eyes. She swallowed hard, thinking that she was imagining because she was tense. She glanced at Ozra who had only paled as she watched Selothis.

Selothis stepped forward and removed his mask. He narrowed his gaze, and the temperature of the place dropped. The shadows around him lengthened as if they were angry too. “You’ve failed me,” he said in a low guttural voice. “You had one job! The girl was so close.” He stepped closer, his presence somewhat looming and consuming the space.

Sheena’s breath hitched. She felt like she was in a horror movie. Her pulse quickened as his figure became taller, and his eyes glowed more. “Wh–who are you?” she squealed like a mouse.

“Enough!” Selothis interrupted sharply. The shadows rushed forward and wrapped around the women. He stepped toward Ozra and curled his long fingers around her throat. “You will die for this.” And then he squeezed his hand over her delicate neck. Ozra couldn’t even struggle because the shadows had grasped her tightly. He shoved her on the ground and she fell dead. Then he looked at Sheena whose chest was gripped with terror. The shadows hissed and coiled around her, begging him to allow them to kill her. “She’s yours,” he said. The shadows hissed in glee and coiled tighter around Sheena like a python around its prey.

“Sound good,” Selothis said. “But let ine help you make coffee.”
