Falling For The Alpha

Chapter 7

"What the f**k is wrong with you?" I yelled on top of my lungs, glancing at Alpha Xander before crouching down next to Simon with my heart literally in my throat. 

Please be alive. Please... 

I reached to touch Simon's face with my trembling hand, "Oh gosh, Simon!" I gasped, tapping on his face to wake him up but he didn't even stir the slightest, "Simon! Wake up!" I continued to tap his face, praying to the Moon Goddess that he is still alive.

But Simon remained unresponsive. 

I knew that werewolves wouldn't die so easily but Alpha Xander literally snapped his neck. And I was afraid that's the end for Simon. There was this tiny voice in the back of my mind telling me that Simon was long gone but I disregard it. 

I was in denial. 

"He can't-" 

I ignored what Alpha Xander wanted to say and started to shake Simon's frame a little violently now, "Simon! Can you hear me?" I asked, immeasurably worried now. 

"He is dead"

I froze when I heard that three words. I looked up at Alpha Xander. He was watching me with his hands stuffed into his pockets, coolly like he hadn't done anything wrong. 

How can be so ruthless? 

"What?" A tear rolled down my cheek as I stared up at him in bewilderment. 

His cheeks pulled upwards and his lips curved into the sickest smile ever, "Listen for yourself" He grinned at me, flashing his teeth at me. He nodded his head towards Simon when I dumbly continued to stare at him.

Swallowing the lump in my throat, I shifted my gaze to Simon again. I held my breath and tried to not make any noise as I listened for his heartbeat only to find none. 

"You killed him" I whispered, more tears started to roll down my cheeks as I stared at Simon's pale face. His eyes were closed and it looked like almost he was sleeping peacefully. 

He chuckled as if I cracked a joke or something, "He was touching something that was mine" He said, justifying his actions like a five-year-old. 

That's it. The way he had answered without an ounce of regret in his voice snapped something inside of me and I sprang up to my feet in a flash and slapped Alpha Xander in his face with every bit of the strength that I have. 

The big bad Alpha stood there without even flinching at me. Not even a blink, "And you kill people for that?" I glowered at him as he stood there, unfazed. 

His eyes were tight with anger but I didn't care at all. He is heartless. He grabbed my bicep forcefully and started to drag me away from Simon's body, "Come" He urged, "We have to leave-"

I yanked my arm away from his grasp, "NO!" I yelled, "I am not going anywhere with you" I started to step away from him. You're a f*****g murderer, I added mentally. 

I had to get out from here but I couldn't leave Simon alone here. He did not deserve this at all. It was my fault, if I had kissed him on his cheek, he'd probably be alive now. I had used him and that costed his life. 

How would I ever forgive myself for this? 

I went back to crouch next to Simon and started to lift his body. I didn't know what to do now. I couldn't think clearly. 

"You're coming with me whether you like it or not" 

That's what I heard before I felt Alpha Xander's hand go around my body. Before I could push him away, he pinned my hands together and threw me over his shoulder like a rag doll before releasing my hands. Then he caged my legs with both of his hands, not letting me move it even an inch as he started to walk. 

I pounded behind his back with my fists, hoping it would inflict some pain on him but in reality, my hands are the ones to get sore from all the punching that I was throwing, "Let me go" I screamed, still continuing my pounding not even caring about my numb fists, "Let go of me" I thrashed against him but he kept my legs locked, refusing to let go of me. 

I felt a searing pain on my right butt cheek. My jaw slacked to the ground when I realized what had happened. I never felt so humiliated in my life until today. 

He had s*****d me. 

"Did you just f*****g s*****d me?" I stopped pounding his back, momentarily distracted by the fact that he had s*****d me. 

He s*****d me again and my blood started to boil, "I don't know if I like the way you're cursing. It's so unladylike" He mused in disapproval, adding fuel to the fire, "Haven't anyone taught you about how to be a lady?" He mocked me. 

I started to pound my fists against his back again, "Are you f*****g serious?" I yelled again, "You s*****d me and then you call me what? Characterless?" I was furious now, I hated that I felt helpless now.

I am a warrior wolf but still, my strength and skills are nothing compared to an Alpha. 

By now he was already walking out of the hotel room but I couldn't sense anyone near me other than him. I tried to reach my brother via mind link but his mental barrier was up. 

He was probably having the time of his life with his mate and here I am, literally suffering from my mate. 

"I am your mate" He growled, snapping me out from the train of my thoughts, "I would do whatever I want with you and that includes this" He s*****d me again as if to prove a point. 

If he thinks that he would get away with this, he is f*****g wrong. I would surely have my revenge one day. I would humiliate him the same way. And I would have him answer for Simon's death. 

"If you s***k me one more time-" 

I didn't even finish speaking yet when I felt a searing pain on my ass again. He had s*****d me, not once. Not twice but thrice! 

My ass burned but my heart flamed. My dignity shattered into a million pieces right then and there. 

I knew if I protest again, it would earn me another s***k so I asked him about the most important question next, "Where do you think you're taking me?" I asked him, finding it hard to speak. 

I was hanging upside down for more than ten minutes now and it was starting to make me feel sick. All the blood rushed to my head and I suddenly had this overwhelming urge to puke the contents in my stomach. 

"To my pack" I heard him say, "Once we get there, I assure you that you will learn how to be a proper lady," He said and it seemed like he had planned something nasty for me there. He made it sound as if I was a little child that needs to be taught about manners. 

"And what does this proper lady mean?" I asked him sarcastically. 

I heard someone's car unlock a few feet away from me, "Good in bed and stay silent until she gets asked to talk" Alpha Xander answered without any shame. 

What are you? A barbarian? Of course, that's what he is if he thinks so lowly of a woman.

"f**k you" I spat. 

I tried to reach for my parent's mind instead. My father's barrier was up but fortunately, my mother's mental barrier wasn't guarded. I pushed my mind to touch hers. 

'Mom, Alpha Xander is k********g me-' 

I was roughly thrown into the backseat of an SUV before I could get an answer from my mother. I snapped my head up to glower at Alpha Xander. 

He bent in front of me and clasped a bangle on my wrist, "What the f**k you're doing?" I yanked my hand away and tried to take off the bangle but I couldn't, "Take it off me!" I demanded, glaring up at him. 

I would murder him with my own hands. 

"Now you cannot mind link anyone," Alpha Xander said, eyeing the bangle, "As long you have this on" He nodded his head, looking satisfied with the filthy thing that he did. 

I paled. No one could stop me from mind linking anyone right? I shook my head at him in disbelief as I mentally tried to reach my parents and brother. 

But I couldn't. It felt like there was a barrier in front of me and I could push my thoughts out from there to my parents nor my brother. 

I was truly scared now. I was helpless. I had no one else to protect me or save me from my own mate. I couldn't defend myself either. Who am I next to an Alpha? 

My wolf went silent. Refusing to say anything. She shut me off. Even she isn't here to help me now. 

I sucked in a deep breath, hating myself for what I am going to do next, "Please let me go" I begged, truly ashamed now, "I wouldn't ever cross path with you ever again, just please let me go" I promised and I intended to keep that promise if he lets me go. 

My mate narrowed his eyes on me and chuckled in disbelief "Unfortunately I cannot think straight without you by my side" He said, brushing my messy hair to the side, "As much as I hate that" He added, grabbing my face painfully. 

He is truly a monster. I would never forgive the moon goddess for pairing me with him. If only I could summon her, I would have done that and beg her to end my misery by granting me another mate.

I deserve better than this. Heck, no one should be doomed to be mated with someone like Alpha Xander. It's a suicide. 

Only you wouldn't die right away but you die every day a little. 

He pushed my face away roughly and I growled, "Well, I hate you too" I yelled in return. 

Alpha Xander's eyes visibly tightened when I said that but he masked his emotions in less than a split second. A sick smile curved at the corner of his lips as he leaned closer to me, "Good" He said calmly before his eyes tightened again, "b***h!" He thundered before punching me square on my face, knocking me out cold.
