The Alpha King’s Special Mate

3| Alpha’s Order.

Realizing that I was doomed and had nowhere to run to again, I transformed into my humanoid form, fearing what would happen to me next.

Alpha Maximus also effortlessly transformed into his humanoid form, revealing a sturdy physique sculpted with powerful muscles. His broad shoulders and defined chest exuded strength, while a trim waist accentuated his masculine allure.

His manhood, oh my.

My eyes roamed his body, ogling at his incredibly sexy masculine form.

He towered at an impressive height of about 6’5”, his luscious caramel brown hair cascading in loose waves. His chiselled face was adorned with neatly grown beards. His piercing blue eyes effortlessly swept me off my feet.

For a moment, the Alpha King was lost in the daze of staring at me in return, but quickly collected himself, his signature frown masking his features again.

“Alpha.” The beta’s voice suddenly sounded from behind.

That was when it occurred to me that I was naked, and I quickly covered my breasts with one hand and my crotch with the other hand in an attempt to cover my nudity. I didn’t bother to look at Kade. I was too embarrassed and mortified to do so.

“Thank You.” Alpha Maximus said as some clothing landed on his hand.

He must have had Beta Kade follow him with the clothing.

“Bye.” Kade muttered, and the next thing I heard were retreating footsteps.

Alpha Maximus flung a maxi dress in my direction, and I swiftly caught it. We both dressed up in complete silence while he shot death glares my way. My body threatened to shiver, but I swallowed that urge. I was done looking weak before him.

After we were done, he held me by hand and dragged me violently back to the pack house, even though I didn’t try to protest. Doing that was of no use anyway.

“Where are you taking me to?” I inquired as he dragged me past the room I was initially assigned.

“To my bedroom.” He grunted.

“What?” My eyes widened as my heart dropped to the pit of my stomach. He wasn’t taking me there to rape me. Or was he?

“You’ll be staying in my room now. With me. That way, I’ll keep my eyes on you.” He clarified as he came to a stop in front of a room and slammed the oak door open.

My eyes filled with horror. Staying in his room would only make it easier for him to rape me and harder for me to escape from this hell.

“What the f**k!” Lauren screeched as we slipped inside the room. She quickly grabbed the sheets and shoved them over her body to hide her nakedness.

“What is she doing here?" She demanded, her voice filled with contempt as she sent malicious glares my way.

“She’ll be staying here.” Maximus announced calmly, finally letting go of my arm.

“What? You can’t be serious. No, she—“ She tried to protest, but Maximus was quick to sprint towards her and massage her cheeks soothingly.

“I only have eyes for you, my dearest.” He assured.

She looked at him with dough eyes. “Are you sure?"

“Yes. She’s just a lowly Omega. Unlike you. Her only job is to bore my pups. But you are mine, as I am yours.”

Shoot me! There could never be torture worse than this. This place was just like my father’s pack. I was always reminded that I was a lowly Omega. Only this time, it was coming from my mate, and the pain was over the roof.

After he was done reassuring her, she jumped out of bed and dressed up. My body and everything in me were stiff as I watched how everything played out. He treated her with so much care.

Her arm hooked around his as they walked towards me, a knowing smile etched across her face.

“Your things will be brought here soon. Come and join us for dinner afterwards.” He told me as they walked past me.

I was still in a state of transfix, thinking of how damned I was, and I was unable to utter a word in response.

“Why do you care if she eats?” Lauren scoffed.

“She needs to feed in order to bear healthy pups.” He muttered in response.

As he pulled the door open, he turned to look at me, warning me. “Don’t for a second think I won’t catch you if you dare to escape again.”

***

Alpha King Maximus was right when he said my things would be brought to me soon. A few minutes after he left, a petite girl with brown shoulder-length hair walked inside the room, a polite smile blooming on her lips.

“Good evening, Starlette. My name is Bella.” She introduced herself as she trudged further inside the room with my bag.

“Hi, Bella.” I mirrored the smile on her face.

“I’ll be your handmaid. If you need anything, I’ll be at your call. But first, I was instructed to take you to the dining room for dinner.” She told me as she came to a stop in front of me.

A handmaid? I thought he saw me as a lowlife. Why would he assign a maid to me? Perhaps so that she could follow me everywhere and spy on me. A frown crowned my face at the thought of how much more difficult my ploy to escape had gotten.

“Is there anything wrong?” She asked cautiously, raising her brow.

“No.” I shook my head and painted a smile on my lips.

“Ahh.” She gasped in relief. “You scared me for a second.”

“Bella. Do I really have to go for that dinner?” I asked seriously.

I didn’t want to go through the emotional torture that awaited me at that dinner. My little heart had had enough of that for today.

“It’s the Alpha’s Oder. You have to.” She answered honestly.

Well, f**k my life, then.

I quickly freshened up, and Bella led me to the dining hall while telling me interesting stories about the pack. She also didn’t forget to mention the pack members I should avoid, with Lauren being at the top of that list.

Bella seemed like a cool she-wolf, and I was beginning to like her already. But I didn’t want her to be around me, as she was a major hindrance to my plan.

We arrived at the dining hall, and all the pack members around turned to look at me. Some with admiration and others with disdain.

Alpha Maximus was seated at the head of the table, with his blonde handbag next to him on the first seat by the right side of the table. The only available seat was the one next to her, and I rolled my eyes as I trudged there and settled on it.

“Oops.” Lauren suddenly gasped dramatically.

I flicked my gaze at her to see a wicked glint shimmering in her eyes.

“I mistakenly dropped it. Pick it up.” She motioned towards a piece of steak on the floor.

“No.” I retorted, refusing to succumb to her bullying.

Her brows furrowed together at my unexpected response. “Are you refusing orders? Pick it up now, you lowly bitch.”

“No!” My voice was firm.

Her teeth gritted in rage, and she lifted her hand up, ready to strike my face.

But before her hand could get any closer, another hand abruptly held it mid-air, stopping her.

My eyes widened as I hoisted my head to see Maximus towering over her, his eyes glowing red as he fumed in rage.

“Do not touch my mate!” He growled.
