Chapter Eighty Seven
He is pissed with me.
Arya’s POV
Two days later I heard from Kelsi that the alpha was going to be back. I knew I had some hard ass apology to do. So I went on to write a letter and another and another. I slid them all underneath the door of his room. That way he wouldn’t say he didn’t see them. I just wanted to appear as apologetic as ever.
I wanted to stay at my house but I changed my mind. In any case if Chase came, I would first see him, so I decided to sleep in Chamberlin’s room. I told him stories and slowly he fell asleep and so did I. then as usual, I began to dream.
***************************************************************************************************
As the horse galloped, I jumped along with it and I could feel like as if I was in the clouds. It’s been a while since I became this happy and this free. All of a sudden the horse stump onto a big stone. I yelped in pain and I threw myself back. I fell with a thud and hit my head on the ground and I jerked.
***************************************************************************************************
“Ouch!” I cried as I had hit my head on the head boar and it hurt as hell.
As I rubbed my forehead, I slowly sat up. Where I am? I only needed to see the stuffed doll and realized I was in my son’s room. What was with me and bad dreams?
Maybe this was because I was worried. I managed to calm myself and went back to bed. And so another dream.
***************************************************************************************************
“You over there, you are my slave” I looked up to see Chase speaking…
Me? Slave? How?
Suddenly he walked up to me and smacked me on the face. Tears fell freely from my eyes. Was this chase or his clone?
Chase used the tip of his finger and titled my face up, to look at him. Right in his eyes, I saw pity but the longer I looked, it felt like I was wrong. I had begun to see things.
And there we were. We mounted carriages you head to somewhere. It was not a long journey, owing to the fact, they followed a short cut. I had wanted to go stay with the other slaves but the beta ordered me to leave. He said I was to stay in the royal carriage with the Alpha.
As we rode, I would turn my head to steal a glance at this beautiful man who will now become my master. Any time I turn, I will find him looking at me. I didn’t understand this. I tried to gauge his reaction by knowing what he was thinking but his face was impassive. It was like staring at a blank sheet. To make matters worse, anytime I turned and saw him staring, he didn’t look away. Rather I was the one who looked away. His scrutiny was making me uneasy but I had no other choice but to endure.
One time I turned I caught him staring. I decided that two can play at this. I stared back. It turned out to be a staring contest. He didn’t look like one who would back down. I was not also ready to do that too. We kept staring at each other for a while until someone huge came in. I ducked my head immediately. If something saw his staring, they would think that you already had a thing for the alpha. And I didn’t like where that was going to.
As I stared at my feet, I heard a low Chuckle from him before he began conversing with the one who came in. On a close look, I found that the guy who came in had a great physical resemblance with Chase. He also had long black hair, had a lean body build and was tall. He was cute just like Chase but Chase was on a class of his own. He was beautiful with a serious expression. Just like the devil.
He could be blood related or something. I thought. As they conversed, I zoned out and began to think of a place I had happy endings. Slowly I drifted away.
“Wake up” a deep voice said. I flung my eyes open to find out that it was Chase. I fixed my hair and looked down. Shy that he might have heard me snore. I touched my lips to, check if I had drooled. Glad that I didn’t. Not that I always drooled while asleep.
Suddenly I felt the carriage come to a halt.
“We are here” Chase announced before leaving me in the carriage. I stretched my body and began going down. As I was about, putty my leg down, I missed a step. I squeezed my eyes shot as I prepared to land face down, when I fell but not on the ground. I opened my eyes to find myself in Chase’s arm. My eyes went wide in horror as stared back at him, as he watched me. I tried to come down but his grip was strong. Then after a while, he slowly but gently dropped me on the floor. I blushed bright red. I opened my mouth to say my gratitude but he ruin6 it all.
“Go to my house and be on your knees” he said behind him without glancing at me. My jaw was on the floor as I struggled to pick it. I couldn’t believe the switch in mood.
A guard showed me the way to his house. I was about to enter. Then I heard a voice.
“Don’t you dare!!?”I froze at the spot.
“You are not allowed into my house.” He warned. “Kneel there and a guard will read you, your rights” he spat.
And it began. They told me that I would be at the Beck and call of the Alpha. I would do as he pleased. They also said that, I would not look at him unless he asks me. The rules were many but none was better than the other.
Just then the reading was interrupted when someone came and whispered something into the ears of the Chase. I couldn’t hear what he said but whatever he said ruined Chase’s mood. He suddenly turned to me and my heart beat fast. Then I knew that whatever it was had to do with me.
“What is your name!?” he growled. My eyes widened. He didn’t know it was me. I swallowed.
“Arya… I stammered Arya Lincoln” I said immediately.
“Get out of my sight!” he spat.
***************************************************************************************************
I jolted up awake.
My shoulders rising and falling. What was that about? I was Chase’s mate not slave. Why would he treat me like that?
I managed to calm myself that this was all a dream. Thunder fumbled and I looked at the window. It was beginning to rain. I stood up and went to close Chamberlin’s window. Aft I did that, I turned around and there I saw a figure standing, staring at me.
“Aarrrgh!” I fell to the floor.
The light was flipped on and I looked up. It was chase. His hair was dripping wet and he looked pissed. So pissed.
“Come here” he said coldly and walked out of chamberlain’s room.
