Contracted to the wrong Alpha
Chapter 121
Lex’s Pov
It was dark and ugly but my Wolf was intact, at least it was the reason I was breathing fine but I dared not shift.
The cuffs around my neck will break and destroy in a blink and it’s going to be the end for me and my entire life.
I underestimated Seraphina and let my guard down again, right before my eyes, I experienced a horror I never thought would happen and everything was moving so fast like a dark forbidden abyss.
Felix was released because they were accomplices, it broke the living daylight out of me because the first word he told me was “I will fuck your Luna again, but this time around Alex, you will be the only one to wash the tape while you dance to the tune of your demonic powers during the full moon.”
I messed everything up because I let my weakness to overwhelm me. Now I’ve put everyone in danger while I’m tied here to a chair with a power suppressor on my neck like a snake being entangled on a pole of its own poison.
Despite everything that unfolded before me like a costly hurricane, destroying my entire plan and breaking my resolve; I didn’t say a word to them.
I became a stone because that is who I am, a lifeless soul waiting for a miracle or a storm to take place and destroy everything.
I got to realize so many things these few days. Seraphina was working for Felix’s mother, she had to do this to stay alive and to make sure that Felix returns back to the Pack to claim his throne.
If he had hated his biological mother before due to what has happened, the feeling he had right now was over the moon because he was going to do anything to make sure that his mother’s effort was not in vain.
“Do you remember this side Alexander?” Seraphina asked me softly, she caressed my cheeks and forced me to stare at her eyes. The eyes I once fell for and drove me crazy.
I ignored her as usual, looking lifeless and dead because not even the meal given to me was touched.
Why would a dead man need a meal to survive? This was one of the times they will try so hard to force the food down my throat and I would bite and bite and chew their hands instead until they had no choice but to stop for a moment.
My life was fucked up with Felix being released despite everything he has done to destroy my soul.
“You called it the secret spring, because he was so cool and warm at the same time. The waters outside rushing down the rocks was what made it cool and our naked bodies pressing together each morning and groaning making love with every warm warm and perfect scene.”
She smiled at me and kissed my lips, she was beginning to start her emotional mantra which won’t even get to me as usual.
The Seraphina I knew back then staying under the secret spring was an innocent little kitten, the one I will do anything for and drove my world crazy.
This one was a reincarnated devil from the skies of deception.
Not even the pit of hell could contain her personality because she was so fake.
“I missed this Alexander, I miss you, I miss us so why on earth are you proving so stubborn! None of these will have happened if only you’d listened to your father and married me to stop all this nonsense but look at you today, you’ve been so miserable because of a woman! You’re wallowing in guilt for a crime that’s common, you’re an Alpha but you’re so stupid!” She scoffed and stood up, taking off her top to expose her naked breasts.
And yes, this will be the fifth time she’s trying to seduce me even in the sight of Felix who got irritated at some point.
She’s doing it again and I think it’s time to just put the bitch in her place. I need my strength for the full moon and not to argue.
“If you come near me Seraphina, I will kick you so hard that you won’t be able to walk again with those legs and come to me. You want to kill me do it, if you want to use the powers you got from his mother to torment me during the full moon, then you should start practicing but if you think that any of you will hurt my matewhatever she is, rape her, torture or make her cry again than the ones you’ve already done to her over the years?
You will never kill me and you should know what that means because I’m going to make you beg for your death and you won’t see it. I won’t die Felix and Seraphina, I will live even when I don’t deserve to but for your sake I will fight death so I will conquer the both of you!”
I told them and they paused at my words, unable to believe what I just spewed.
It made them mad and furious, it made them extremely agitated that Felix punch almost dislocated my head from my neck as Seraphina’s eyes glowed.
” You think you’re a god right now, you won’t die? You will fight death because of that bitch! A bitch that destroyed us, destroyed you to be reduced to this state!’ He slammed me terribly to the ground and the chair broke on my back, making my bone twist.
“Now let me tell you a little dark truth brother, You’re going to do it tonight! Even if I never had the intention to do that, my mother is kind of obsessed with those powers of yours, she put it there by mistake and she needs it back. You don’t want to know what that means or what happens when you’re no longer in possession of that!” He told me and Seraphina smirked, placing a hand on his shoulders as she spoke.
“It means that your wolf is going to be destroyed and shattered to pieces once the powers are taken out and do you know what’s exciting?” She giggled, turning to stare at Felix who gave her nod and she turned to me with a serious face.
“We are doing it now, it’s so effective during the full moon but because you’re so fucking stubborn and think you can fight this, let’s see what you got Lex” She told me and an instant migraine took over which made me groan.
Seraphina wasn’t powerful in any way so it could mean that powers were controlled somewhere and someone was watching us to listen to their demands which would be no other person than the witch.
Maybe I should have just shut up instead of bragging because this pain was in ten folds of what I received back there at the woods, it was as if this came with an angry force to torture me as I didn’t know when I let out a roar or pain.
My hands were tied, my feet were tied and my head was about to explode with my brain. Not even my heart was left out because it dragged me out more than any hose.
I wanted to touch it, beat my chest or do anything to reduce the pain but it was futile. The pain was too much, it was on another degree and I had to cough, but what followed was blood.
“Let me shift, and break these things. It’s not full moon yet and they are already trying to break us!” Xander growled, hating the pain coursing through me and I shook my head.
“It’s going to make me weak before the full moon, I can handle it.” I told my wolf and Felix chuckled at the sight before me.
God damnit! I was running wild with pain, my bones were crushing and my eyes were a coal of fire.
“Let him go if he begs for mercy, I’m on my way to Midnight Shade , I need to go now because that’s when that Raven idiot will be with his beloved sister. I should hide so I’ll take over and tell the people that I’ll be the Alpha instead.
“What if he doesn’t say a word? You know Lex, he would rather die!” She argued and he shrugged.
“Then let him die, we’ll still revive him and get the power out!” He spat out and left, making me groan. My dear mate should be out of that Pack, she shouldn’t stay there.
I should shift and go after him but I just laid there, with red eyes and letting the pain consume me till evening.
*****
“I…. need…water!” I managed to construct those words, I was half dead and barely moving. The room was cold and my body was filled with goosebumps.
I would never cry, fuck that silly shit hurt but whatever it was they were doing to me was too much that tears fucked me up.
I need my mate, I need her so much to take this pain away.
I’m tired of screaming, but I won’t beg.
All I know is that I can feel my death near but I don’t want that. I need to live and I need water right now.
“Did you say something to me?”
“Se…Seraphina…. water!”
“I didn’t get that Alexander, you fucking talked to me! Say that clearer.”
I was still tied to the chair, I couldn’t move. My spinal cord felt broken and I had to beg.
I shouldn’t die yet, I need water to keep me sane. During the full moon, I’ll shift to my Lycan, it might destroy me but I’ll destroy them first.
“Seraphina…. I need water pl”
I heard a heavy crunching sound on her skull and she fell down with a thud, her face was facing me directly and I wondered if Felix had decided to betray her.
I’ve lost all senses of smell and reaction, so all I could do was ask for water.
“Water…please..
“Lex?” I heard a choking sound that erupted into a loud cry, my body froze at that voice, the pain ceased and the world paused just to let that voice echo over and over again.
“Bastards!! Fucking bastards!” She screamed and my body sagged, I wasn’t supposed to get so emotional, I wasn’t supposed to feel so relieved despite the pain but fuck it!
Hot tears gathered at my lids, I didn’t know who she came with but I felt my hands and legs being released from the assault.
“Take this, drink as much as you can!” She pushed the bottle of water to me but I pushed it aside and fell on her shoulders. I couldn’t even touch her, my hands had frozen in place.
She cried hard, so hard and hugged me tightly. The relief of knowing that she’s not at the Pack where Felix would have hurt her again was mesmerising.
The rapid pain in my body slowly diffused, it waned down slowly and I wrapped my hands around her, pulling her like the last medicine I need to live.
“I’m here, it’s okay Lex. It’s okay, please. Are you Feeling any pain?” I nodded on her shoulders and pulled her too tightly if possible but her bump was a barrier and I caressed her stomach..
“Mine!” Xander growled possessively with a loud growl that surprised me.
“Let’s get out of here, please Lex I don’t want them to come here and find you here.”
I disentangled from the hug and caressed her face with my dried parched and wounded hands.
“Lilia?”
“Let’s go, don’t say anything please.”
” I can’t, I hurt you and I should pay for it.”
“I know that asshole, you’re a very demonic rapist Alexander! Fuck you! I hate you for this all my life but do you know what would break me right now, rendering my efforts useless. I came to get a rapist, he needs to be punished by me and not himself! You get that? You’re being selfish to place that decision, to fucking think that way and look at you now, you’re so weak!” She yelled and cried hard and I nodded slowly.
“Fine, let’s go with your punishment instead.”
