CHAPTER 68 Why Are You Doing This To Me?

  Dana POV

  "F-fuck!" I cursed through clenched teeth, determination fueling my efforts as I staggered to my feet and fled from my attacker. Every step was a battle against the overwhelming urge to surrender to darkness, but with each faltering stride, I pressed onward, driven by the primal instinct to survive.

  Pain lanced through me as he yanked my hair, nearly propelling me towards the crackling flames of the bonfire. Desperation clawed at my chest as I pleaded for mercy, my voice thick with anguish and fear.

  "I spared Mariel's life when the Alpha intended to end it. She owes me everything! Please, don't do this... You're not just condemning me to death, but my baby-"

  "Do you think I care? This has nothing to do with Mariel," he growled, his eyes blazing with a fiery intensity that mirrored the flames surrounding us. My heart sank as the reality of my dire situation dawned upon me - there would be no mercy, no reprieve from the merciless grip of my assailant.
