Alpha Owen (Broken Series)

5. Taming you.

Erika

Owen was standing outside of the room looking between Victor and I. I only focused my attention on calming Adam so that I could put him to bed. The Doctor had told me that the injection would work when he was sleeping peacefully, now that I had heard him cry I was a little more composed.

"Alpha, please allow me to treat your wounds," Dr. Reed was a bit of a stubborn man and daring too. Owen had asked him to leave but he had reappeared as he was worried about Owen’s wounds. I noticed that the people around him were very worried about him.

"Yes Alpha, please receive the treatment. I also need to update you a few things," Victor suggested. Owen agreed, leaving as the Doctor followed him but Victor glanced at me one more time for a few seconds then walked away.

Adam had already fallen asleep. Slowly I got up from the bed and made my way to the open door. I felt relieved to finally be alone but as soon as I was about to close the door Owen put his shoe in the doorway, not letting me close it. It happened so quickly that I was startled. It looked like he had run all the way back. Had he not gone with others?

"You cannot close the door," he moved his shoe back as I opened the door in surprise.

"Then how can I change?" I asked watching him coming closer to me. He stepped inside towering over me.

"No one comes into my room without my permission. So feel free to do anything but trust me when I say if I see you lock yourself in here alone with my son I will break the door down," I was so frustrated with his bullshit. The words ‘my son’ were so irritating to me. He was my son and only mine! My Adam! I crossed my arms over my chest as I understood what was going on in his mind.

"Do you really think I would run away with Adam from this pack in your absence?”

“Yes I do,” he was quite straight forward and smart.

“You have advised your people around the pack house, who are like hungry beasts waiting for me to make a wrong move, that they are to capture me the moment I try so why would I escape? Do I seem that stupid?” My eyebrows raised along with my tone. His lips turned into a little smirk at my words. Why had I always felt as if he could read me so easily? Had he caught me?

“Yes, I think you will do anything to get Adam. Even you would fight with my warriors, not caring about death. You are planning to run, I will never let that happen. You can lie but your eyes always give you away,” I blinked as I was taken aback by his words. Everything he had said was correct. I had been planning to run away with Adam but only after he had recovered. I could not say anything at this time as he had already predicted my every move.

“Don't even try, I don't want to have to cage you, you know” Cage? He would cage me? His hands tucked a stray piece of my hair behind my ear. I shivered at his touch. His cold fingers brushed my cheek. It had not been a mistake. He had intentionally done it.

The word cage triggered an image in my mind like usual. I have been hearing all of these things from my father since my childhood, he had never loved me. He had always caged me in my own home most of the time. School and training were the only times that I was allowed to go out. I used to wait for these times all day. He treated my mom like a slave, he never respected her, he only abused her. Until her death she had been blinded by his ‘love’ but he had only used her.

My dad had only taught me to be a slave to my mate, to never open my mouth against a male, and be ready to serve them in bed whenever he wished. I should be willing to die but never leave my mate no matter how abusive the relationship was. He always told me that a female's destiny was only with a male. A female cannot survive without a male. In reality he raised me to become a baby making machine, a s*x slave that was what that statement had triggered in my mind. I had suffocated in that house my whole life before my rejection.

Right now Owen’s words reminded me of everything that I had gone through in my life. Our eyes were locked together.

“You want to cage me. Why? Because you think females should be weak. So it is your job to tame me?” The arrogant look on his face and in his eyes changed at my words.

“Taming you?” He c****d his eyebrows with a smile. I was confused when he raised my chin with his finger.

“I would gladly tame you,” rage began to rise in my heart. I knew it! All males were the same. He was just like all the rest. Like my father! I just pushed his hand away in anger but he was quick to pull me back to him. I gasped when our bodies made contact with each other.

“But I am afraid,” he started to say while his eyes went to my breasts, my wet clothes were giving him the perfect outline of my boobs. I sense a wave of lust rising in him.

“Really? Afraid of what?” My voice was challenging. His eyes had a very hard time tearing away from my chest when he looked back at me with amazement.

“I am afraid, while trying to get this wild cat into my bed, I will become her submissive,” he whispered. His smile captured my heart. He would become my submissive? How could an Alpha say something like that to me? Had he not been worried that if someone had heard him they would have thought the wrong thing? My throat went dry when I saw him leaning down towards my face. His eyes were only on my lips. What was he planning? My heart was beating like a drum inside my chest. I should have pushed him, shouted at him, or maybe slapped him but I was paralyzed in his hold. I licked my lips in nervousness when he was only a few inches away from me.

“Alpha!” A sudden shout startled me. Owen looked back at Victor as I instantly pulled myself from his grip.

“Why are you yelling!” Owen sounded quite annoyed with him. Why? Had he wanted to continue? I was cursing myself. Why had I let him do all of those things to me?

“I… I just came to inform you that Dr. Reed is waiting for you in your office,” his voice was low as he tried hard to smile.

“Okay,” Owen started to leave the room but not before giving me one last warning.

“Don't close the door,” he turned to leave, making me grit my teeth in frustration. Victor had not followed his Alpha but just stared at me. I turned to the side, ignoring him.

“Wait! You are… Erika… right?” He stammered like he learned how to speak only a few seconds ago.

“Yes, I am. Why?” I raised my eyebrows giving him a cold look.

“Then what about that child? Is he…?”

“I am really surprised that you still remember me,” I snapped, interrupting him. He looked pale and had a guilty look in his eyes. After two years he had not expected me to be alive.

“I am sorry…” He sounded like he was about to cry, which raised no small amount of annoyance in me.

“Alpha Owen and you disgust me! Get out before I completely lose it,” I turned to Adam but heard him step into the room.

“Owen…don't tell Owen what happened two years ago. I beg you,” I could tell by his voice how terrified he was. So that meant that these evil people were playing the same game as they had two years ago? I fisted my palms at my sides. How could he ask me something like that? After all this time nothing had changed. I controlled my emotions and turned to face him.

“You don't want me to reveal anything to Owen, right? Then help me to run away from this pack with my son,” I demanded.
