Alpha From the Ashes

Parker POV I lay on this cot every day and pray to the Moon Goddess for mercy. No person should have to endure this torture. My wolf is so weak sometimes I'm worried he will die and leave me alone in this hell. Blaze are you there. "I'm here Parker just trying to reserve what energy I have left to heal your wounds." I hate when we don't talk but I appreciate the help. "I need you to stay strong things are going to change for us soon I promise." How could you possibly know that? "I can't tell you that just know we are going to get the hell out of this prison and this pack." I won't hold my breath, but I appreciate the words of encouragement. The cell door opens and the last person I want to see walks in. She has no mercy on me and enjoys my daily torture. No mate should ever treat their other half this way. I can't believe how she had me fooled with her acting skills. I wish she would just reject me so at least the pain of her screwing that ba**ard would stop. The physical abuse she and her boy toy put me through is ten times worse, but I hate Blazes cries when she is with that f**ker. I'm glad when she leaves because just the look of her makes me sick. Brandon leads me upstairs to start my cleaning. "Parker here man" he hands me a sandwich. Thank you Brandon I say before taking the sandwich and inhaling it. He is the only person in the pack that shows me any kindness. As I clean, I think about the day that my life changed into my worst nightmare. Marissa POV Wake up you filthy mutt you have work to do. His eye is swollen shut and he seems to be healing slowly from the silver whip they used on him yesterday. He sits up and my wolf whimpers. Eva enough I've told you over and over he is no longer our mate. The only reason I haven't broken the bond is to torture him. Blane is our Alpha now, so you better get on board with it. That pr*ck or his disgusting wolf Titus will never be my Alpha or mate." "How could you treat him this way, you're a monster." Don't act like a lovesick pup, he is a worthless wolf who isn't good enough to lick our shoes. "If you don't stop this you will be a Luna without a wolf then we will see how your precious Blane feels about you." She growls and recedes to the back of my mind. She wouldn't dare leave me she is just making idle threats. I look up and he is standing the best he can. Brandon take the prisoner to the floors upstairs for cleaning now. The guard opens the cells and leads the mutt to his duties. When he is done give him bread and water only if the job is done properly. Have the doctor tend to his wounds so he doesn't get an infection and die. Who would we have to clean and torture if that happened? I leave the cells heading for Blane's office. Flashback Three Months Earlier Parker POV I sit behind my desk in my office. I am the Alpha of the Lotus pack. I took over after my father and mother died in a rogue attack. I have been mated to my beautiful Luna Marissa for six months. My best friend and fellow Alpha Blane introduced us at a pack party he had. Amazingly it turned out we were mates. As if my thoughts about Marissa conjure her, she walks into my office. She is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen with beautiful blonde hair down to her mid back. She has a perfect body. She comes around the desk and puts herself on my lap. She runs her fingers through my black hair and down my jaw. "Hello love what are you up to today?" I chuckle I have a meeting with my ranked members and then my afternoon is free. "Good I was hoping we could go for dinner in the human city at that restaurant I like so much." The Blue Moon absolutely I would love to take you there. She jumps off my lap and giggles. She leans in and kisses my lips but before I can deepen the kiss she pulls back. She has been really stressed lately with her duties and s*x has been the last thing on her mind. "I'm going to go for a run and when I get back, I'll get ready for dinner." She leaves and my ranked members come in having seats around my office. As we start to discuss pack business, I start to get a dull pain in my chest. I get nervous something could be wrong with Marissa, so I link her. My link is blocked which is something else she has been doing quite a bit lately. Why the hell would she have me blocked? Suddenly I get a pain in my chest and immediately I know that Marissa is with someone else. I don't want to believe it but there is no other reason that would make sense for this pain. Everyone leaves and my Beta Liam comes over to check on me. "What is wrong Parker?" I think Marissa is being unfaithful I need to find her so I can know for sure. "Do you want me to come with you?" No, I need to confront her alone. If I get into trouble, I will link you. He nods and I head out of the packhouse following her scent. As soon as I reach the lake on our territory, I see them. My body won't move as I stand there watching the love of my life be pounded by another man. "Rip his f**king head off" Blaze growls in my head. She is participating not being forced I am done with her. I start toward them and when I'm ten feet away I realize that she is not only f**king another man but my best friend Alpha Blane of the Stone Pack. The one who introduced us what the f**k is happening? He looks up at me and smiles as he thrusts deep in my mate. I, Alpha Parker Easton, reject my mate bond with Marissa Easton I scream. I watch her grab her chest and I wait for her to speak her acceptance. He stands up and she does the same after she gets her baring's before she walks toward me. Once she is in front of me, she slaps me across the face. "You will never reject me you soft worthless so-called Alpha." Just accept the rejection then you and f**k boy can have each other. I will find another Luna to help me run my pack that isn't a wh*re. She smiles and my heart sinks. "I never loved you and it will be our life's mission to make you suffer every day." I'm done listening to this bulls**t accept it or don't I could care less. I will find a mate that actually loves me and is faithful. I turn and start to head back toward the packhouse. When I'm halfway there I feel a warm sensation on my neck and the world starts to sway. When I wake, I'm in a cell. What the hell happening I had hoped it was all a dream but obviously it wasn't. Once I sit up Blane is sitting outside my cell with Marissa in his lap. Why are you doing this to me? "I'm doing this because I want your Luna and your pack." "Your pathetic and not worthy to be an Alpha." Marissa laughs "the day I found out that I was mated to pathetic weak wolf like you I knew that I needed to have someone better." "We have been planning this since you two had your ceremony" Blane says. I stay silent and pray that I find a way to make them both pay for their treachery. I turn away from them both and I hear the cell door open. When I turn back Blane punches me in the face knocking me to the ground. Before I can shift or fight back, I feel a needle pierce my skin. I look to see Marissa standing there with a smile on her face. My world sways again but before I lose consciousness, I hear that b**ch say something that shatters my world. "If you think anyone is going to help you, we killed all your loyal pack members." Then blackness consumes me. Flashback Over I go from floor to floor to clean and by the time I'm done I'm exhausted. I drag myself back toward the cells with Brandon walking behind me. When we reach the kitchen Brandon hands me a piece of bread and a glass of water which I again inhale. I start to turn to head downstairs when I come face to face with a man, I thought of at one time as a brother. "How's it going Cinderella, did you enjoy your dinner?" I stay silent as to not give him the satisfaction of a response. With how weak my wolf is I won't have the strength to fight him off. He slaps me across the face knocking me to the ground. "You answer when the Alpha speaks to you worthless mutt." He stands over me waiting for a response yes Alpha I bite out. "That's a good mutt now I need to go f**k your Luna." He walks out of the kitchen and Brandon helps me to stand. Once I'm back in my cell I lay on my cot and say the same prayer I've said for three months.
