There were times when situations were like surreal moments. And, that time was now for Ava. She wasn’t sure if she was actually dreaming at this point. I mean, her mind had practically stopped working when Alpha Jax pulled that towel off her body.
The only thing she was consciously aware of was her own breathing. It was deep and shallow. People around her, either looked at her in pity, disgust, a healthy dose of both or like they wanted to fuck her.
She was vaguely aware that the cart was moving again. She didn’t know why, and honestly, she didn’t care. Her eyes were misty, and slightly pep-perish as tears poured through them. She couldn’t for the life of her think that this was real or it was happening to her.
The worst were the barely covered snarky comments that were thrown her way. Things like, “Look, at her flat ass, she’d surely get wet when she get fucked with Alpha’s hard rod,” or “The bitch is slutty, yet acts like an innocent looking pie.”
They kept at it, and when she allowed herself to look at her mate, the one person who should be protecting her from all of these, she only felt her stomach plummet at how he shared dibs with another male. She was about to look away , when his eyes caught hers, and then in one sweep, he winked at her.
That wink went straight to her core, and she hated herself for feeling it at all. After all these humiliations, her body didn’t seem to want to act like she wanted it to. It must be Ivanka seeing this as a one time in a million thing, with her speech the last time. That was one thing she hated about her wolf. She never did what she told it to. Never!
She took her eyes away from him quickly, her cheeks burning, and her eyes streaming with tears. They’ve gotten to the big gate that protected the pack from the humans’ prying eyes. But, now, it was swinging open.
“What’s going on?” She managed to ask.
She was barely heard above the whole snarky comments. Instead, Alpha Jax was greeting a human like they were best buds, and exchanging kisses with the said human. She wasn’t sure she was still living in the same Gaia as the wolves, because how could she explain what was going on? Wolves don’t relate with humans, but here she was, watching Alpha Jax showcase her to them.
“Enough!” He said suddenly, pulling away from the human.
Everyone stopped talking, and stood with their eyes fixed on their Alpha. He stood tall and promising in their midst. Ava felt he was as promising as the recent pandemic fear called Novid-19, which had rocked their wits senseless. Yes, he was her personal Novid-19.
“Mr Tommy, this is my latest sex toy, Ava Deal. When she comes out to do one of my stuff, treat her nice,” He said slowly.
The man grinned widely. “You shouldn’t worry about that, Jax. Your people are ours too and it’s our duty to treat them right,” He said firmly, with good cheer.
Ava couldn’t believe how vain this whole thing was. Was it her they were referring to like she was meat?
“I must confess Jax, you have such good tastes. I would practically jump on this one immediately I got her. She is hot like a snack, and do you see how wet she is?” Tommy said, with a loud laugh.
Alpha Jax shrugged. “As she should be or she’d be disciplined. Bitch can’t stand the heat half the time.”
The people laughed in response like his words were so funny. She tried hard not to show how hurt she was. She wanted to tell everyone that they were mates, but something held her back. Why would she claim him when he hasn’t done right for once?
“It’s time to have my name tatted on your skin.” He said coldly.
Someone brought a white bowl, and a needle and thread. They dropped it close to her feet, and then, another person gave him scissors. Her jaw dropped at what this all meant.
“Don’t do that!” She said abruptly.
Alpha Jax looked at her with pure rage clouding his features. He moved closer to her, and forcefully pulled her legs apart. With the scissors, he pulled the tip directly on her clit. His eyes directly on her face. Without much prodding, he pulled the scissors forcefully out.
“You need to learn manners,” He said simply.
He grabbed her leg, while all she could think of was how to get the scissors back in her leg and ride on it. The coolness of the scissors had made her so wet, she almost thought she might cry.
Not paying attention, she was surprised when something went through the skin of her legs. A scream tore through her lips, as the pain spiraled in her brain, jolting her butt off the cart.
“Damn, she can’t stand some pain,” Someone said in the crowd.
She couldn’t even fight him, for she was chained. The cold needle moved through her legs with accurate precision. She made out the blood that oozed from her legs, obscuring the crude tattoo that was being sketched there.
“Please,” She said breathlessly.
He ignored her, and kept at it. This was until someone touched his arm. That someone was beyond beautiful, she didn’t seem real at all. But, he stopped.
“Jax, what is this?” She snapped at him.
He looked at her with a smirk, lining his features. “I’m playing with my new doll, sister. You arrived late, though,”he teased.
The beauty closed her eyes, like she was fighting off a migraine. “Jax, clean this up, please!”
He looked annoyed as he walked out of them all. The girl looked at Ava in pity, but said nothing to her. Instead, she turned to Benjamin, and gave one striking order. “Take her to her room.”
