As per Cara’s instructions, I had to stay and keep serving the alpha until he finished his breakfast. As I stood there, I tried to muster up the courage to confront him like I had planned before, but I chickened out every time I tried to open my mouth. I decided to leave it for another time.
I thought lunch would go as quietly as breakfast had done but I was very wrong. When Cara and I reached the unit, there were two women in the living room. The alpha was nowhere to be seen, but the women seemed quite comfortable. Cara greeted them but they did not bother to reply so we focused on setting the table.
“Who are they?”
“Sandy and Kelly, they’re from Black Water pack. They’re the gamma’s daughters. The blonde one is Kelly, and the brunette is Sandy.”
“Do you think they’re here for an official meeting?” I asked Cara.
“Official?” Cara scoffed. “I don’t think so. If yesterday didn’t show you how things work around here, maybe today will.”
We were almost done when the main door opened. In walked alpha Ridian. He was wearing a shirt and shorts that showed off his sturdy legs. The two women were up before he could close the door properly. They both hugged him at the same time. I felt a pan of jealousy as bitter bile crept up my throat. I turned and faced the other side, leaving Cara to face the debauchery in front of us.
I was thankful for the herbs Mary had given me. At least I couldn’t feel the pain which that bast*rd probably wanted me to feel. I was tempted to turn and see what was going on, but I noticed that even Cara had turned away. I could hear kissing and smacking sounds, plus a few moans here and there. This man and those women surely had no shame. The moon goddess clearly had something against me or she would not have mated me to such a despicable person.
“Miss Girad, please leave us alone.”
“Okay, sir.” Cara said. She gave me a sympathetic glance before turning to leave. I could feel tears welling up in my eyes and fought hard to keep them in. I couldn’t show him that he as getting to me. I tried to remain strong but lost it when one of the women came to the table. She opened one of the fruit bowls and took out a piece of pineapple with her hands. That was not the most ridiculous part. She was topless. She winked at me before retuning back to the living room.
I could hear moans and groans coming from the living room. I knew turning would be a bad idea, but in my stupidity I did. Ridian was seated on the sofa, leaning against the backrest and his dxck was deep inside Kelly’s throat. I turned away immediately, and let the tears fall. I tried to wipe them with the hem of my apron but they kept coming. Eventually, the tears stopped coming and I tried to maintain my composure.
I could no longer hear the moans, or any movement at all. I turned and saw a mangle of bodies and limbs on the long sofa. They seemed spent. My anger was immense, but I held it in. I didn’t want to react in the way he expected me to. I had to be strong. I knew that eventually he would get bored if I ignored his antics.
“Hey maid, bring us some food.”
Why don’t you come and get it by yourself? I wanted to retort, but I was wiser than that. it would do me no good but just worsen things, thereby putting me in more hell than I was already in.
I turned and faked a smile. “What would you like me to get you please?” I asked and went on to list everything that had been prepared. It felt like I was wasting my time, as I had a feeling that their thinness was not all due to genetics. They did not look like people who ate much.
“Why don’t we just go eat at the table?” Kelly asked.
“Whatever,” the other side. “What do you think, Ridi baby?”
I resisted the urge to roll my eyes. What a silly nickname.
Alpha Ridian sat up. “Sure, why not. I enjoy meals at the table better.”
None of them even had the decency to dress up. I gaped as they dragged themselves to the table in their Adam’s suits. My eyes betrayed me as they focused on the parts between Ridian’s legs. As he walked, his dxck went from flabby to full erect. I turned away.
“I think little maid here wants a taste of the alpha’s dick,” Kelly teased as she opened a dish. “Not as innocent as you look, are you?”
I had already placed plates by everyone’s chair. “What would you like, alpha Ridian?”
Ridian looked through the bowls and smiled. He picked up a pineapple piece and bit into it. “I would like a BJ. Who’s up?”
Kelly looked up at me. “We can serve ourselves. Why don’t you give it a try, little slave?”
I shook my head. “I’m not interested.”
They gasped.
“You have been looking at that thing like its candy. There’s no need to lie. Besides, you were even crying for it.”
“I wasn’t.”
“Was she?” the alpha asked.
I cringed. What a loss. What kind of leader was this? It was why I hated the monarchical typo of leadership. People assumed leadership roles, not because they were capable, but because of the blood that ran in their veins, that had nothing in ensuring someone was a good leader. Most alphas I knew were depraved humans. Why would Ridian be any different? Jane willow had really dodged a bullet.
“I will not engage in this kind of depravity,” I said. “There’s more to life than irresponsible sex, alcohol and drugs. I may be a slave but at least I have some morals, which can’t be said for any of you. Look at you, two beautiful women who do so much in the world now reduced to play things for some man. How pathetic.”
A slap landed on my cheek. It was sandy.
“Don’t talk about us like that.”
“Is it wrong to say the truth?”
“Miss Markle, come and get me off.” Ridian commanded.
“No.”
He stood up.
I knew what was coming wasn’t going to be pretty.
But, I was ready to face it all.
