The cold ground hits my skin hard. I was left alone with no food or water and my throat get sour. I was shivering miserably, no one was here for me. The smell of blood made me puke multiple times that I’m extremely sure I’ve to puke out everything in my gut. It’s possible because I have no strength left to lift a finger. I was sprawled on the dirty floor.
I tried resting my back on the wall but unfortunately for me, my wound stings a lot. I hissed in pain. My wolf was down which made it even harder to heal fast. The pain was too much to handle and the worst is I was in my heat.
The sweat poured down my face making it uncomfortable. All of a sudden, the heat wash over me, and pains shoots down my spine, I was seeing red. I can’t handle the pain anymore. I want to die.
I rolled on the floor trying to reduce my body temperature with the cold floor. Nothing was working out for me, in fact, the pain doubles. I had tears in my eyes feeling so lonely and in pain.
My hands tremble from the increase of the heat, my headaches, my body hurts, my mouth can’t move on their accord.
” Hel.. p.. hel.. p,” I said hoarsely
I heard loud footsteps coming towards my ward. I prayed silently to be some help. I needed help right now.
The footstep turns even louder, like a bunch of people coming. Then suddenly the door got opened with force. I tried to adjust my eyes from the light. I’ve been in this room for hours and it was all dark.
Fear took all over me when I saw Beta Brian standing tall with some guards behind him. I knew I was done for.
” Please don’t hurt me ” I croak out
He smirked at me ” Glad you learned your lesson”
I hugged my body, protecting it from whatever pain was going to be inflicted on me.
” Take her out” He commanded and the two hefty guards with him came forward dragging my two hands. I was weak so let them drag me out of the room.
I was lifeless, I just want to die. I want to die, the tears flow freely down my eyes. I couldn’t control it anymore. They finally dragged me out of the dungeon and I felt them released my head making me land on the floor with a loud thud.
I knew I’ll be full of bruises after this. The bruise that’ll make me remember the pains I went through in this pack.
” Up!”
I heard the voice I dreaded to hear more than anything. The King alpha ordered.
I tried my best to get up but my body failed miserably. I had no energy in me and my wolf wasn’t helping the matter. She was disappointed with our mate so she went mute on me.
” I said get up!”
If I had the energy I’d have rolled my eyes at him right now. Didn’t he see that I was trying my best to get up?
” I can’t Al… pha” I croaked out
” You see what I told you alpha, she had no respect at all.” The beta said in anger.
The hate I have for beta brian is unexplainable right now. I wish I can pass a stake through his heart.
” I never asked for your opinion Brian” the alpha scolded making me smirk secretly
” Sorry Alpha”
” Take her to my Study and this time carry her don’t drag her” He commanded.
No alpha, it’s you I want to carry me, I thought to myself.
***
Unfortunately for me one of the guards carried me. The heat reduced after having my mate so close to me and now I was in his Study.
I was dropped on a couch. My energy was coming back slowly, at least now I can lift a finger…
” You can leave us alone,” he told the guards and Beta.
They trailed out leaving only the alpha and I alone in his office. I swallowed hard not ready for what was to come. His scent filled my nostrils making me horny all thanks to my heat, note the sarcasm.
He went to take a seat. I made sure to follow his moves with my eyes, he was a Greek God!. Blessed with all the looks of mankind He rubbed his forehead making me want to help him do that. Sigh.
The next thing he did made me freeze. He looked up only to find me already looking at him. He showed zero reaction instead he watch me as if trying to understand something but is finding it hard to know what was it.
I couldn’t take my eyes off him too. His sexy lip perk up about to say something then he paused. I swallowed hard trying to control myself. This wasn’t me, I’m not always like this but why was I feeling this way?
He is our mate stupid, my wolf said unexpectedly. She was back. I rolled my eyes forgotten that someone was looking.
” Did you just rolled your eyes at me?” He asked
My eyes opened twice their size ” No.. no Alpha. I wasn’t rolling my eyes at you”
” Then who?” He asked slyly making me uncomfortable.
I swallowed ” My wolf”
He folded his arms ” Interesting, so what did your wolf ddo thamakee you rolled your eyes at her?”
” I.. i. i she was saying something stupid” I found myself saying.
” what could that be?” He pressed with a mischievous look.
His the king trying to tease me? I couldn’t help but wonder.
” Nothing Alpha,” I said with bowed head fiddling with my fingers.
He raised brows looking at me making me wish for the ground to open up and swallow me. How can I tell him that my wolf was talking to me about him being my wolf? My life is getting complicated each passing day and I just can’t wait for it to be stable.
The King Alpha stood up and was sat beside me in an instant. He was so close to me that I could perceive his scent. I gulped.
He was quiet and looked thoughtful” Do I know you somewhere?”
” Excuse me?” I was caught off guard.
” Why do I have this feeling that I know you. Whenever you are close to me I feel a chill always running down my body. My wolf praises you so much and in fact, he wouldn’t let me rest for locking you up falsely” He started and I couldn’t be more shocked.
“Alpha?” My mouth opens and closes like that of a fish.
” Melissa, what are your intentions here in my pack? Why do I feel so relentless when I see you? Why does your thought suddenly consume me? Who are you, Melissa”
My heart raced as if they going to come off. Do I make him uncomfortable? Is he beginning to feel the bond between us? But how? I thought the necklace was to hide the scent?.
Don’t be stupid Melissa, my wolf scolded.
‘The necklace was to only hide your scent and not the bond between Mate and us. Remember he is the king, no matter how the necklace works, he still will always get a hint because of how strong he was. Don’t be surprised that the charm on the necklace will be broken too soon ‘ My wolf explained and I began to reason with her
” what are you discussing with our wolf?” The king Alpha asked suddenly making my query.
I shook my head ” Nothing ”
.
He gave me a firm look ” whatever you might be hiding from me just know that I’ll find out about it sooner than you thought “
