1471 Words
I'm the alpha's mate… That's the phrase that keeps repeating in my head, but I can't believe it, all this seems impossible... "That's impossible... Alice can't be your mate!" my brother shouts in horror, trying to break free from the chains. "I'm surprised too, but apparently fate always ends up uniting me with your family, and especially with your father's descent," says the alpha, looking sideways at my dad, who is still silent and with a face full of confusion: “I told you one day you'd pay me back, you traitorous bastard.” Without any mercy, the alpha approaches my brother, giving him a strong blow in the face that knocks him to the floor, and leaves him spitting blood, how much strength does this man have? “No!" I scream, struggling with the guy who holds me by the neck: "Don't hurt him!” The alpha turns to me, my bones freeze at the cold and evil look in his eyes. Under his intense gaze, once again I feel like a small animal in front of a huge predator, all my instincts tell me that this guy is dangerous. Leaving my brother alone, the alpha approaches me and grabs my chin, still looking at me. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't scared, right now I want to pee my trouser, this is horrifying…. “Why are you defending him?” The alpha asks, running his fingers over my wounded cheek: “Are you in love with your brother?” “I'm her half-brother, you piece of s**t" Jason snarls, answering his question: "Don't tell me you're jealous that it'll happen again.” What's going to happen again? I look at my brother confused: “Jason, what's going on? I don't understand anything.” My brother doesn't say anything, he just stares at me, showing me with his gaze how worried he is. “I've been looking forward to this day for so many years" The alpha spoke again, with a half smile. “And it feels so good to make your family pay.” "Please don't do this, I have served you well for several years, trying to make up for my parents' mistakes, please stop all of this..." Jason pleads, looking desperate. For an instant I see a hint of pity in the eyes of this terrible alpha, who with a shake of his head, orders his men to release everyone but me. Freed from the chains, the first thing my father does is to say: "Diana, my beautiful daughter, come with me to protect you...". My half-sister wastes not a moment, and free from the man who had been holding her, runs into the arms of my father, who receives her with great care and joy. I won't deny that it hurts, since I'm still in danger, but my father doesn't care about me for a single second, he doesn't even look at me. “I'm going to do to you what you did to me" the alpha says as someone else pulls my hands back, scared I try to turn to look, but the alpha pulls my chin again to make me look at him. “She's coming with me, likewise she is my Luna, and as you well know, my Luna must remain by my side.” That word sounds horrible coming from his mouth, Luna… Am I his Luna for sure? “No, damn it, she's just a child, you're not taking her. Have mercy, don't hurt someone who doesn't deserve it. If you want to charge someone, I'm here for you, punish me but not Alice” Jason sounds so frustrated. Take me with him? Why? Where? What does he want with me? Will he kill me? Why do I ask myself so many questions with no answers? My brother defends me, and we're not even blood brothers, he does what my father is supposed to do, but after this my father doesn't even deserve to be called that. “Jason, I don't want him to take me" I beg, with my voice weak and weak. This man is evil, I feel it in my chest. “Please tell him I don't want to go with him…” “What do you want, Alice? Do you want us to be hurt because of you? You are the alpha's Luna and you must go with him” My dad looks at me with hatred, protecting someone who is not his daughter in his arms. “Daddy, I don't want to go with him…” I keep begging, starting to cry. My father avoids my gaze again, looking like a heartless man at my crying: "It is your duty Alice, grow up and do what any woman your age would do." Any woman my age? I just turned 18, in the pack 21-year-old women are barely thinking about getting married or finding their mate, why do I have to go with this man if I'm barely of age? "All right, take her away, we're done here," says the alpha shaking his hands. Two of his companions take me by the arms, and mercilessly start dragging me in the direction of the door of my house. Seeing me screaming, my brother tries to stand up to come and help me, but the alpha’s companion who are still in the house prevent him from doing so, while my father continues to hold on to Diana and doesn't look at me even once. But I don't plan to go down without a fight, so, pulling myself together like crazy, I shout desperately: "No, please don't! Dad! Jason! Help, don't let them take me!" I move and struggle so hard that I hear one of the men dragging me let out an exasperated snort. And at the look and cold stare of that alpha, I feel a loud thump on my head. Everything after that is as dark as night. *** This f*****g headache makes me want to bang my head against a concrete wall, I can’t stand it. I look around, this isn't my room, it doesn't even look like it, this place is not my home... I don't remember what happened… Holy moon goddess! The alpha took me to his home, what does he want from me? Why did he come into my house like that? If it is true that he's the leader of the pack, he can't have me by force, or so I think, I don't remember there being a law against keeping a Luna locked up. What if he wants to kill me? I need to get out of here immediately… Still on shaky legs, I hurry to walk to the other side of the room, where I see a dark wooden door. Taking the handle of the door between my fingers, I try to open it, but there is no way, it’s completely closed... I start to hyperventilate, realizing that I'm trapped in this place. I have to calm down and think, there must be another way out of here, I just have to find it... “Alice…” That voice, that damn voice. Turning immediately, I see him, coming out of the bathroom with a towel in his hands, apparently he had just got out of the shower. There he is, an evil smile on those pretty red lips, his eyebrows in a straight line enjoying my confinement, and those beautiful golden eyes. He reminds me of my dad, sadistic. I'm not lying when I say he's the most handsome man I've ever seen in my life, but he also has that aura of evil surrounding him. There are a thousand palpitations in my chest, I can feel every drop of blood swimming through my veins, I fell terrified around him. “Why am I here?" I managed to utter in a stammer. “It's easy to guess" he folded his arms, which only made all that muscle mass he seemed to have to spare stand out more: "You're my Luna, and like everything that's mine, you must stay by my side.” “I am not your Luna.” “Alice" he said my name mockingly: “I don't care a bit what you think about this, do you think you can give me orders?” I prefer not to answer that question, scanning the room with my eyes, trying to find a way out of here before he can hurt me. "You told me earlier that your biggest dream was to get out and run far away, how about I help you fulfil that dream? Obviously, for something in return..." Says the alpha, approaching me slowly: "A son, I want you to give me an heir in exchange for your freedom." A son? Is this guy serious?
