Chapter 4 A Mate, Taken Unwillingly

• Yvonne's POV:
• Faced with his anger, I forced a serene smile. "Bryan, I've made up my mind. I'm prepared to step aside as your mate to let you be with Whitney. "
• He stared at me, initially taken aback, before his expression hardened into a sneer. "Do you really expect me to believe that? If you're so certain, why don't you just accept my refusal now? "
• His veins throbbed, and his breathing grew ragged. The drug's effects were clearly taking hold.
• I moved closer, guiding him toward the bedroom. "I'll accept your refusal, but not right now. "
• "Don't touch me! What are you scheming, you deceitful woman? " He attempted to push me away but only stumbled and leaned against me.
• His body temperature was rising, and he muttered curses under his breath. The drug was working its way through him, making him act against his will and drawing him nearer to me.
• I knew the effects of the aphrodisiac well; it was my own creation.
• Bolstered by my knowledge, I approached the Alpha without fear.
• To counteract the drug, physical intimacy was required. So I was resolute in approaching him, despite his status as an alpha.
• Once we were in the room, I pushed him onto the bed and climbed on top of him, starting to unbutton his shirt. "Bryan, we've been married for three years, and you've never touched me. Before we dissolve our mate bond, I want to experience you completely, just once. Think of it as compensation for all these years of feeling. Agreed? "
• I leaned in and kissed him, trying to avoid hearing any denial.
• I had no retreat; I felt like a moth drawn to the flame—desperate and reckless.
• Bryan bit me sharply, making me pull back with a gasp. "Yvonne, how dare you! "
• His face, usually so handsome, was twisted with rage.
• "Oh yes, I dare ... "
• I was aware my methods were cruel.
• Yet, my love had endured for so long, and the struggle had been immense.
• All I sought now was a brief moment of solace.
• After this encounter, I would accept his refusal, dissolve our mate pact, and leave the Shadow Pack.
• "Bryan, the drug you're under means you can't escape … " I kissed him again, unable to resist, as I undid his belt.
• His pants were already straining, and I reached out to grasp him.
• He let out a low groan. "Yvonne, you vile woman! "
• I disregarded his insults. My only wish was to possess him completely, regardless of his contempt or anger.
• Mimicking the scenes I had observed in adult films, I touched him, guiding his hands to my chest.
• Finally, Bryan's resistance faltered. He roared and roughly squeezed my breasts. "Yvonne, if you're this eager, I'll give you what you want! "
• He gripped my waist with one hand and thrust powerfully, his large size penetrating me deeply.
• "Ah! " I couldn't help but cry out, my body awash with a blend of pain and pleasure.
• He was immense, and it was my first time. His sudden penetration was nearly unbearable.
• Yet, amid the discomfort, I felt a level of exhilaration and fulfillment that was entirely new to me.
• At last, I was united with the man I had longed for.
• His intense heat melded with me, his body thrusting into mine with unrestrained fervor, fully expressing his desires.
• I had finally achieved what I had always dreamed of, a fantasy come to life.
• Soon enough, my body began to produce its own lubrication, and his movements brought me a pleasure beyond compare.
• "Bryan, faster! More! "
• I gripped his shoulders, moving in sync with him, rising and falling together.
• Driven by desire, his eyes were fierce. He turned me over, positioning me on all fours, and took me from behind.
• We explored every position, lost in passion throughout the night.
• By the end, the bed was drenched, and the room carried the fresh, woody scent of pine from his body.
• My body ached and swelled, but I was deeply satisfied.
• As he withdrew, I cast a sleep spell over him.
• "Yvonne, you … "
• Bryan's eyes, blazing with anger, locked onto me. Before he could finish his thought, he slipped into a deep slumber.
• I rose from his side, my legs trembling, and headed to the bathroom to clean up.
• When I returned, I traced his features carefully, memorizing his face.
• The thought of leaving him was painful, but I knew I had to follow through with my decision and free him.
• The reality struck me: two people forced into a bond without love only caused each other suffering.
• I turned to the moon outside and made my vow.
• "I, Yvonne Johnston, Omega of the Shadow Pack, accept Alpha Bryan Lockwood's rejection and dissolve our mate bond. From now on, I choose to leave the Shadow Pack and become a rogue. "
• As I finished the vow, the sharp, piercing pain of the severed bond hit me.
• I clung to the table to keep from collapsing.
• It felt as if every bone in my body was being shattered, a fiery agony spreading from my chest to every inch of me.
• The pain was unbearable.
• I hadn't expected the break in such a deep connection to be so excruciating.
• But it was my decision.
• In the Shadow Pack, I was despised, even by my family.
• With the mate pact severed, there was nothing left for me here.
• I resolved to leave.
• The pain eventually ebbed, leaving me feeling as though I had emerged from a deep, dark river.
• I was empty.
• No longer did I have a home, a pack, or a mate.
• I was a solitary Rogue.
• With a final look at the sleeping Bryan, I gathered my belongings and walked away from the Lockwoods' residence, leaving the Shadow Pack behind.
