Alpha’s Possession

Chapter 7

Suddenly Bill struck me towards him with a jerk, my hand was released from the maid and the tray on my left hand fell with a clunk sound. I found myself trapped in his strong and cruel clutches. For some seconds the entire room fell into a deep silence as everyone stared at us.

I was terrified, I felt as if all the blood in my body had dried up. I tried to free myself, but it was unsuccessful.

“Leave me!” I cried helplessly into his hand. He was laughing shamelessly and digging his nails into my skin. I winced in pain.

I didn’t know why I looked at Xavier hoping for help. I should have known that I would not get anything. He was watching without any emotion as if he didn’t even care. There was no sign of worry on his face.

‘Really?’ Why was he so calm? As if nothing had happened and Bill had done nothing. I looked into his hardened eyes but I found nothing. I was hurt by his behavior and my eyes filled with tears.

I turned my gaze. How could he do that to me?

Right now, I was feeling very weak. I couldn’t even help myself at this point.

No, I couldn’t be that weak. I have to stay strong. Yes!

But, why did Bill capture me? What did I do to him? Was he going to kill me? No… Moon Goddess, please save me! The terror of death spread like poison in my veins as I struggled to free myself.

Bill glared at Alpha. “So what do you say, Alpha? Shall I start?” Bill spoke as a flash of victory spreading all over his face.

What did he mean to say? Whatever it is. It will definitely not be good for me.

“ It was not your first try. So it means nothing,” Xavier growled. His jaw tightened and his eyes flashed a dangerous warning.

He didn’t care about me in the slightest. I hoped that maybe Xavier would have realized that Bill was doing me wrong and would have stopped him, but my bad luck, nothing like that happened and everything was destroyed by his words. There was an unbearable pain in my chest. This whole situation, his stabbing words and my broken heart was a new reality for me, which was not good for me at all.

Some people stared, and others began to speak in hushed tones.

All the people watched, curious to see what would happen next. Some of them had pity for me but they didn’t dare to interfere and confront that lunatic man.

“And if you think that this nonsense of yours will do something, then there is nothing like it.” Xavier snarled, his eyes on fire. Anyone who looked into his dangerous and sharp as knife gaze that could anyone to his knees, you couldn’t help but shudder and looked away from his gaze.

Bill and I were taken aback by Xavier’s words.

I looked at Xavier with my moist eyes. He was trying to control himself, his anger. Because I was watching his hands fist, closing and opening. And apart from that I was able to feel his anger a little bit.

“Okay, then let’s see.” Bill said. He gritted his teeth in anger. He didn’t like Xavier’s words. And also that none of his actions had any effect on Xavier.

“Let’s take it like a game, how long does this girl survive,” Bill challenged and a wicked smile spread across his face.

“N-” My scream was cut off, by his grip that was squeezing the strength and air out of my throat. I stopped breathing and tears started falling from my eyes. My whole body was trembling. I was trying very hard to rid myself of his deadly grip.

“It’s a goof!” A voice boomed and his grip on my throat was loosened a little, but not so much that I could free myself from his grip. But I got some relief from it, I started breathing fast. Just when I began to think it was over he again squeezed my throat, cutting off the airway. As if I was a toy he let go of my neck just before he would do any permanent damage. The skin around my neck was burning and I was feeling immense pain. And he was evilly smiling at his cruelty.

“Sure, go ahead, kill her…” Pamela smiled that barely masked the loathe in her eyes.

She continued in a proud and stern voice, “ When we take any decision, we do not hesitate. We do not worry about its consequences, if we have taken a decision, we have taken it.”

Would he let me die like this? I looked at Xavier unwillingly. I could see something in his intense eyes, but that was only for a moment, that was gone as fast as it came. But he didn’t say anything.

Bill was probably shocked that his plan went wrong. Xavier also did nothing to stop him. And his action could not frighten Xavier.

“How dare you catch an ordinary maid and threaten us.” Pamela was very furious. It seemed from her eyes that she did not mind if a maid died.

Yes she was right. He was really insane, thinking that he tried to challenge Alpha’s order by threatening the life of a useless maid that the Alpha would be scared of and would change his mind. Absolutely not. Yes it was different that I was Alpha Xavier’s mate but Bill did not know this. And now maybe he came to his senses by the words of Pamela and he would leave me. I found hope of survival. I was hurt by Pamela’s words and behavior, but more than that I was hurt by my mate’s neglect.

I insolently looked at my mate Xavier to see if he really didn’t care about me, his mate’s death. I had heard that the separation and death of a mate caused unbearable pain, which was difficult to bear. Oh yes, yes…. I should not forget that my mate was none other than the Alpha of the Blue moon pack where the rules and laws were different. And if someone’s mate was not worth that, then it was better to separate from him. And he was the Alpha here, the strongest of them. So who had the courage to shake him with his decision? Definitely, no one, not even his mate. Of course I knew I was an unwanted mate.

Bill laughed out loud, “It’s okay then, when her life is worth nothing to you all, then it won’t matter if she dies.”

What? No….. . His words made all the hope of my life vanish in an instant.

“ Please let me go,” I begged, trying to hide the protesting vibe in tone. I hated myself for it.

Bill let out a maniacal laugh. “It’s getting funnier. She just started begging for her life. Look, this is their truth. How helpless is she? Unable to save herself.”

Some people were smiling at his words while some people were getting angry and were glaring at him. My fellow servants and maidservants were already looking paler than usual and their fear was increasing.

“ You need to learn your place.” Xavier warned Bill, his eyes were already dark with rage, “Then don’t you complain that I didn’t give you a chance.” He threw a dagger with his eyes in Bill’s direction as Bill couldn’t help but shuddered and his grip loosened. As soon as I got the chance, I almost managed to free myself but he forcefully grabbed my hair and pulled me towards him, squeezing my hair made me wince.“ Where are you going, b***h?”

“Leave me ashole…” I screamed, hitting him with my hands. I was twisting my body, kicking and punching him with all my might, but all this was not enough to break his grip.

“Pretend to be brave, huh?” Bill said, squeezing my hair more made me cry. Then he tightened his grip around my throat with his left hand which was causing my throat to hurt and burn.

Oh my God there was no one here to help me, all the servants and maids were scared, and the rest were curious as to what was going to happen next. And it seemed that Xavier had no intention of saving me. I was of no importance to him as a mate and also as a member of his pack. I must protect myself. My mate did not care about me. I knew that I was nothing to him but it was hurting me a lot.

Beta scoffed ,” he thinks highly of himself.”

“Let him try, he thinks he might succeed. Fools are fools after all,” Pamela taunted with a smirk.

These people were only talking, not doing anything to save me, I was only a toy for all of them. Did they not understand that Bill preferred to kill me instead of obeying Alpha’s order?

I was constantly struggling to free myself from his clutches. My legs were trembling and refused to bear my weight. My head was spinning. I had no idea what to do? I tried to shift myself into my wolf shelf, but could not do so because of weakness. I knew that even if I shift myself into my wolf self. Even then I will not be able to save myself from dying from this ruthless person. But still I had to try. I have to do something, to save myself. Before he could kill me. I was powerless to move, to make him stop. Bill's laugh was like poison in my ears, was this the end of me? And Xavier would not do anything to help me?
