Captured And Claimed By The Alpha King

07

Mia.

My throat patched as I watched them walk past my cell with water and food for others.

Just as Leon had ordered, none of them had dared to give me water, no matter how hard I had asked. No matter how hard I had feigned to be hurt or dying, they never paid heed to me.

They actually act as if I am not around them, no matter how hard I tried ti scream. “I think I have a way to shut that b***h up.” One of the guards had said when I had screamed so loud.

I had no choice than to keep my voice low, scared that they could harm me when I need a way out. He could be a lower rank of the wolves but who knows what he is capable of doing?

Life had been so much better until I had come here. If I had known, I would have never accepted the scholarship, I would have never welcomed the idea of moving here.

But it is for my mother, she needed this opportunity to be here more than anyone.

She spent years, just to be here and now, I am trying to drag her into the mud together with myself.

If that day, I have never ran into Leon, then I would have never found out that he was my mate. He would have never had me jailed and punished.

“Fuck.” I cursed, pushing a hand into my hair when I realized how f****d up my life had just gotten.

No one is f*****g willing to believe that I did nothing to the Alpha King. If I can’t hurt a fly down here, then how do they expect me to murder someone?

There has to be someone out there that knows about my life, someone that has been targeting me to make my life miserable. And guess what, they are getting so much better at it.

I have no idea of how days and night I had spent down here, but it has been a long time and since then, not for once had Leon attempted to see me.

He has been blinded by rage that I was the one that really did kill his father. “If he is an Alpha, a higher rank, how could I have killed him?” I questioned, even though there was no one in the cell with me to answer my question.

He would have fought me off. “Remember, they said you had poison him.” I reminded myself.

I had poison him, yet I am sure that they can’t prove any prove that I was the one that really did it. They are jumping into conclusions for no reasons.

And this is making me wonder if this is how the werewolves have been at it, blaming someone for something one of them had done.

It is a disgrace with the way that they think and work. “Look who is here, no one other than Leon’s mate.” Rachel’s taunted.

I didn’t have to look up to know that she was the one, her voice had done enough. “I thought you were his mate.” She said again, waving her hands.

A guard close by rushed to open the cell and she walked in, closing up with me. “I am.” I affirmed.

It was no lie that I am his mate, since she was there when he had marked me in front of everyone. “Then why don’t he want to believe his beloved mate and let you out?”

“Because you mean nothing to him and would never.” She laughed hard.

I swallowed, ignoring whatever she was pushing to me. If I can keep up with all bullying, then this should be nothing. I can withhold it too. “That doesn’t matter.” I said finally.

She narrowed her brows, dumb at what I had said it to her. “I could be his mate and he wouldn’t care a bit about me but it doesn’t mean that he can throw me in here for something that I didn’t do.” I pointed out.

If I could manage to convince her, then there should be a way that she would get to talk to Leon to let me out of here. I miss mother and I am sure she is blaming herself for whatever this is.

Rachel laughed hard again, clapping her hands together. “What makes you think that there is no prove you did it?” She questioned, tilting her head to get a better view of my face.

“Because I didn’t. If I was the one that had done it, then I would have accepted that the fact that I did.” I let her know.

There is no way that they expect me to accept the blame of someone else. Life doesn’t work that way. “I should let you know that you mean nothing to Leon.” Rachel started.

“Maybe that’s what you think.” It was now my turn to taunt her.

I have come to realize that her biggest fear is losing Leon. She is deeply in love with him that she can’t see herself anywhere without him.

She treats him like the air she breaths, as if he was some god. “I am his mate, I have every right to be close to him.” I smirked.

“Don’t you think of what could happen now that he has marked me already? Just think about it, because it seems to me that you have no idea of how reality works.” I added.

There was fear on her face which she had tried so hard to mask off, but it gave her up each time. “If I were you, I would have been nice to me so that I wouldn’t make him turn his back on you.” I threatened.

“You think that you can make Leon turn his back on me?” Rachel asked, unsure that she had heard me right.

“There is no way Leon is going to let me go after all these years that we have been together. I was by side since the day that we were born.” She argued.

This is what I had aimed for, to make her feel unsure and insecure of her relationship with Leon. If she has doubt about their relationships, then she is going to get me far away from him.

I nodded my head. “Just try me and see, for I would be your worst nightmares.”
