Not My Alpha

~ Harmony's POV ~ How long do I have to sit straight? When are they going to finish dolling me up? The wounds are already covered with a concealer. Well, I know that they are not planning to heal me, but the way they have stopped pretending to even care about me is certainly quite hilarious. The omegas were busy applying blush on my cheeks. Some of them were taking care of my hair, and some of them were fixing my dress. They reapplied mascara and lipstick. I hate wearing off-shoulder dresses in such cold weather. It's a good thing that the neckline is not that deep or it might become hard for me to hide the mark. At least the black dress was going with my brunette hair. They made me wear dangling earrings. Even the heels were quite high. I don't usually dress up in such a way. I was feeling uncomfortable, but I don't think that there is anyone here who is concerned about how I am feeling right now. What sort of tiring life is this, and is it seriously getting hard for me to keep up with these people? “Is my sweetheart finally ready to attend her friend's birthday party?” Helena sounded excited when she entered the room. She did allow me to get ready in her bedroom, as all these people would definitely not fit in that closet-like room. She stood in front of the mirror, and I could tell just by looking at her reflection that she was not happy. I saw her biting her lower lips while she was gazing at me. “You do resemble your mother.” She mumbled to herself whilst she tightly clenched her fists. She must have remembered the reason why she was still not considered as the Luna of the pack. Whenever she remembers Trinity's mother, she simply loses her cool. “Make sure to suck up to Seth. Don't forget that we can't afford to offend them. Your marriage with that guy is a profitable deal for your father, so don't you dare mess up anything. Smile even if you don't feel like it.” She forced me to smile. Her fingernails were kind of hurting me. I got up from the chair, and when I looked at my appearance in the mirror, I simply sighed. I feel like they are trying to put me on sale. I really don't want to go with them. My father and Ares were waiting downstairs for us. He had also asked other she-wolves of our pack to join us as he thought of introducing them to the quads. He could really do anything to make a stronger connection with the Blood River Pack. “Try not to create trouble for me again. If I receive another complaint against you… I will lock you in the dark underground prison. You do remember what happened last time, right?” He tightly clenched my shoulders. I grimaced in pain, but I still tried to maintain my composure in front of my so-called family. “It seems like I am uselessly worried about you.” I heard a familiar voice and when I turned around, I saw that Damon was standing against the main door of the packhouse. He was wearing a black shirt while he had rolled up his sleeves. He definitely has a sturdy body. When he ran his fingers through his jet black hair, I felt kind of mesmerized, glancing at him. The guards bowed their heads in front of him. Their actions were enough to piss off my father. Well, a lesser wolf always bows in front of the strong one, and Damon is definitely someone who could easily fight with someone like my father. I could feel that his wolf was not only strong but also dangerous. He has yet to showcase his real powers, so I am waiting for the day when I will be able to figure him out. “What are you doing here, Damon? Don't tell me it's about those rogues again? Those pests are becoming a pain in the arse now. I don't believe that those lawless bastards are able to use their heads.” Alpha Cain started to complain without even looking at Damon. Am I imagining things or is he seriously ignoring my father, and walking straight towards me? “I am not here to talk about business, Alpha Cain. I am here to take your daughter with me.” After saying those words, he held my wrist and, without even hearing my father's reply, he turned to take his leave. Where the heck is he taking me? The other she-wolves did try to block our path in the hope that he would gaze at them, but instead of entertaining them, he pushed them away without even listening to their reasons. Why am I feeling relieved that he didn't talk with anyone? Something is definitely wrong with me. There is no other reason why I would think in such a way. After dragging me towards his car, he opened the front door for me. I kept looking at him. I wanted the time to stop ticking, but when he gestured to me to sit inside, I could not help but to listen to his words. Is he here to pick me up, but why? I kept asking myself the same question again and again. Nothing particular was coming to my head. “You are looking breathtakingly beautiful today, Delaney. It's for me to look everywhere else. You never really put so much effort into your appearance, so why now? Are you doing this because you want to win my brother's attention?” Damon sat by my side while he continued to drive. He was clutching the steering wheel. I am not sure why he is making such an expression, but it's making it hard for me to look anywhere else. I can't take his words seriously. He must be saying such things just to tease me. I am not going to let him make fun of me. “Why do you care? He is my fiancé, so of course I need to put in some effort, right?” I replied to him nonchalantly. “Don't make me angry, sweetheart. That would be the last thing that you would want to do today. Bella asked me to bring you with me as she was afraid that you might feel uncomfortable sharing a car with those people. Try not to talk with other guys at the party.” Damon ordered me to maintain my distance from others as he believed that I might end up in the same situation as last night. I seriously don't know how to have a normal conversation with these people. “What if I don't follow your orders? You are still not my Alpha, so don't expect that I will listen to you, or even show you respect. I don't even listen to my own father. I do know how to take care of myself. I have survived all this time alone, and I am sure that even in the future I am going to be fine without anyone's help. So, stop showing me this fake concern of yours. It seriously makes me feel disgusted. I also didn't ask you to help me with that post." I said to him calmly while I looked out of the car's window. I was looking up at the night sky when that jerk suddenly applied the brakes. Is this lunatic out of his mind? He could at least warm me beforehand. “Yeah, you are right. I should have let you deal with all their nasty comments. You know what? Do whatever you want to do. But don't you dare to fall into any sort of danger in front of my eyes. Even if you plead to me… I will definitely not help you out.” After saying those words, he got out of the car, and before I could say anything to him, he slammed the door of the car in anger. He walked inside the magnificent club. There were many sports cars parked in the lot. I could see many guys outside, and they were busy making out with the girls that they had brought as their partners. I walked out of the car, but it was kind of hard for me to walk in those high heels. How do all these she-wolves manage to balance themselves in this ridiculous thing? I tried hard to maintain my posture, but it was getting hard for me to walk in them properly. While I was trying my best, I heard someone was chuckling at me. I tried to look straight, and there I found a guy in his white shirt. “You seemed to be struggling in those heels of yours, my lady.” Is this guy trying to be funny right now? “What are you doing here, Asher? Did that eldest brother send you here to keep your eyes on me? Are you also here to mock me? Tell me your reason?” I asked him while I tried to fix my dress. “If you don't feel comfortable in such dresses, then you should not wear them.” He advised me, but I simply rolled my eyes at him. Do they think that I enjoy others' attention? If I had a choice, then I would never have worn such a revealing dress? Helena must have selected it in the hope that I would be able to seduce Seth like how she seduced that father of mine. “Watch out!” I heard Asher scream and when I got out of my daze, I realized that I was about to fall on the floor in front of all the people. They are definitely going to laugh at me, but to my surprise, I didn't fall. Instead, my forehead was pressing against something hard. “I warned you to stay away from my brothers, didn't I? No, why the heck are you here?” I suddenly heard a cold voice, and he was not just angry, he was releasing his alpha aura to subdue me. Why is he twisting my arm behind my back? Is there no way to get away from this guy? What should I do?
