Power And Privilege

1152 Words
Alexander's POV Becoming the alpha that day became the biggest change in my life. I had people bowing down whenever I passed; I could have any maiden of my choice. The life of the Alpha was something I wouldn't give up until I died. Who would? This power was something I had always longed for. .... A few months passed, and I had gotten used to the royal life. To my utmost surprise, I was informed that Jasper was still conscious. They had found him breathing when they went to retrieve his body. His wound had been healing slowly but barely enough to heal him completely, so they had taken him to the healers mountains to get him back into shape. "I thought it was a fight to the death. You could have left him there to die." "The main elder ordered to save him says he's going to be useful to you, my Lord." The messenger who was assigned to deliver the message had his head down. Who would look the Alpha in the face?. "Oh, really? I really regret not delivering that final blow. I was a fool for leaving him like that," I murmured to myself while drinking my broth. Having someone like Jasper around would be good. He was one of the few I trusted besides my mom. Being a skilled fighter, he would be of good use. When he was completely healed, I summoned him to the palace, appointing him as my beta and right hand. I wanted him to be closely by my side, assisting me to take over Oceana. He didn't show any sign of objecting to the position when I appointed him, and since then he has been by my side. ...…. (Current Day) "Everyone's curious about who's going to be your mate tomorrow; the whole pack's talking about it." "Of course, haha. Who wouldn't want to know who the Alpha is going to get mated to?" "Have you felt a bond yet?" "The bond stuff is a rumor." "I was serious about feeling the bond, Alexander." "I thought you were talking about sex." "I never said anything about sex." "You said sensation, Jasper; what do you think my mind went thinking about?" "Oh, what a wild mind you have got there." He stared at me with an eyebrow raised. , "You tend to not take things seriously. How do you even rule the pack?" "That shouldn't be your problem, Jasper." After sipping a significant amount of broth, I sat on my bed. "The only thing we should be worried about is how we are going to convince the Lugry Pack to join hands with us." "The last mission you had assigned to me, we ended up destroying a good amount of towns despite the fact that their Alpha still insists on not partaking in the war." "You only destroyed a good amount of towns, and he still didn't budge. Hahaha, he's really good. Really good. Two days after the ceremony, go back; this time, destroy more than usual, enslave anyone you see, and bring them back. If he tries to go to war, he's sure to know the fact that he can't go against us, so he will only have the option of cooperating with us; take with you twenty thousand soldiers; that would be more than enough. "Yes, my Lord," he said in a low tone. I knew he never vouched to partake in the mission. Being a soft one, he loved people more than himself. I had to show him the other side of the world. "You can go now. You don't have to worry about me not feeling any bond. We will all see who she is tomorrow," I said as he walked out of the room, closing the door. "That goddess better not play games with me." I took the last slip of broth, dropping the glass cup on the floor. Taking a deep breath, I could sense the aura of different maidens everywhere in the palace. The palace had so many beautiful maids, all curvy and tempting; thinking about it gave me a hard time. It seemed the broth had heightened my senses or something, because all I could think of was getting off. I laid down on the bed, my whole body ached from the stress of the day and I realized I needed a massage. As a royalty I had masseurs all lined up and ready to give me a relaxing massage but for some reason I did not want just any experienced masseur. I thought deep, I could get a relaxing massage from anyone or anywhere but for some reason I wanted someone naive, someone who was nothing in ranks and could never say no, let alone be able to stare at me. Making a call, I summoned my personal maid, Stella, who had been assigned to me since I became Alpha. She was blonde, had light silvered hair, which she put in a ponytail, and embedded on her face were eyes as red as fire. She wasn't that beautiful, but she was a perfect candidate. With a breath-taking curvy figure, she was the perfect one to have before the ceremony. She knocked on the door as I gestured for her to come in. I had been waiting, desperately and patient, since I called. She walked in with her head laid low. It was obvious she saw my vulnerability. "Look at me." "I can't, my Lord, you." "Are you trying to disobey my orders, Stella? Do you know that disobeying me would mean treason? "I would never disobey your orders, my Lord. It's just." "You don't like what you see?" She didn't seem like someone who would throw herself at me when she saw me. "With all due respect, my Lord, I am just your personal maid. I don't think I am supposed to help you with anything that does not involve my jurisdiction, my Lord." This wench was getting on my nerves. It wasn't right to do something like this to my personal maid, but my heart weren't telling me so. It was like I was no longer in control. I began walking towards her; five feet away from her, I brought out my claws, to show her just how scary I could be. I was the almighty Alpha that everyone feared, my orders should never be disobeyed. Anger filled me as I thought of the fact that my lowlife maid had dared to disobey my orders and act all high and mighty like she meant a single thing to me. I was going to make her regret turning me down, she was just an ordinary maid. She should be honoured that I even summoned her let alone consider her for something like this. "You should have obeyed when you had the chance, Stella. It seems I will have to punish you for that."
