Chapter Three

1286 Words
Vynessa; It’s been five days already since my father locked me up in my room after I returned home from the woods. He’s doing everything within him to make sure I don’t escape before my wedding with that old man. The wedding is in two days’ time, and for the first time, I'm hoping that my curse comes into play. The Moon Goddess, who enjoys taking the lives of my mates before my wedding, should take this old man’s life. I will be very grateful. But it seems she’s playing her tricks once again by keeping this one alive and ruining my life. I know my life seemed ruined before my father informed me about this marriage, but I was ready to try something again with a young male wolf. At least someone who can satisfy me sexually like that strange young man. Even being locked up in this room, I sometimes find myself gushing over the one-time s*x I had with him. For the first time, I allow my s****l emotions to take full control of me for a man I know nothing of, but I don’t regret any bit of it. It’s a one time thing, and I know it’s nothing special to him. A handsome man like him can have whatever she-wolves he desires, and love will be far away from his heart. I had to leave when he was fully asleep because I didn't want to see his reaction when he woke up. I’ve heard a lot of she-wolves speak about how badly they get treated after a one-time s*x with a handsome male, a wealthy male, or an Alpha male. This set of men is filled with pride, and I don’t want to give an opportunity to any of them to make jest of me. But I'm slightly fulfilled that I get to have the last feel of a young c**k before my wedding to an old man, and I don’t know if I will ever allow that old man to have access to my body. “Vynessa! Alpha Kryptos is here!” My father announces as he finally opens the door of my room. A tall man in a blue tailored suit walks into my room. His silver hair slick back, revealing a face etched with ruthlessness. His piercing brown eyes shine with cruelty as he fixes them on me. Despite his advanced age, he bleeds a sense of power, and his broad shoulders square, his posture confident. His hands wrinkled but still firm, resting comfortably in his pockets. My eyes widen and my heart skips in fear. Just a stare at his face, I know I'm done for, getting married to him. “Did your father tell you my reason for getting married to you?” He picks up a fancy small ball on my dressing table, rolling it in his hands, his gaze fix on it. “I don’t know, and I don’t care. I do not want….” “Shh, quiet! Halting his left finger at my face, his eyes still fix on the ball. “I’m not seeking your opinion. I only need a yes or no to my questions.” I anxiously gulp, my heart racing, and I feel my body temperature rise in anger, “My father didn’t give me a reason,” gripping onto my dress. “One month after this wedding, I need a son from you. I hate unproductive she-wolves,” he drops the ball on the dressing table, and makes to walk away. “I will never bear you an heir, male or female because….” instantly he storms toward me, gripping my jaw, his fingers pressing in, causing tears to well up my eyes. His lips twirl the side, a cruel smile playing on them. “You do not have a say in this. One more word from your sinking mouth, I will make sure to cut off your tongue,” he flings my face to the side and storms out of my room. I feel weakness in my legs, my body trembles as I fall to the ground, clutching my dress and whimpering. For real, my life is over. I have nowhere to run to because I know he will find me, and I can't take my own life because I promised my mother I would never. The only thing left for me is to stay in this room and wait for the day of my wedding with this beast. I break into heavy tears. ********* “As of today, I pronounce you, husband and wife. You may kiss the bride,” the priest pronounces as I stand at the wedding altar, facing the ruthless old man. Tears well up in my eyes. Alpha Kryptos brings his lips closer to mine, and I throw my face to the side. He pauses, his eyes narrowed as he grinds his teeth in anger. “Don’t you dare act stupid before me or I will end your miserable life,” he wraps his hand around my waist, dragging me closer to himself. I make to speak but the stares from everyone around halt my words in my throat. I dare not respond to the Alpha or show a sign that I'm trying to challenge him in the presence of everyone. Trust me, I won’t live to see the next minute. Praying for this wedding to finally come to an end, when I hear powerful howlings approaching the wedding garden. My eyes move to the side and I see a pack of rogues emerging from the trees, their eyes fixed on me. “Who invited these rogues to my occasion?” Alpha Kryptos roars. My father rushes forward, holding the hand of Alpha Kryptos who has finally let go of my waste. “The rogues are not here to interfere with your business, Alpha. I invited their Alpha, Alpha Arkon, to this great occasion,” my father softly utters, causing me to wonder about his connection with the Alpha of the Rogues. The Rogues are believed to be deadly, and very gruesome. No pack dares to challenge them or their Alpha. However, I do not know what he looks like. The only Alphas who had once challenged the Rogues were the Alpha of my pack, Alpha Kryptos, and the young Alpha of the DeadMoon Pack, Alpha Thane. Because they are also ruthless. “Why would I want to waste my precious time attending the wedding of an old man who is meant to be in his grave?” I hear a familiar deep voice, coming from the middle of the pack. “I’m here to claim my fated mate,” the voice howls, and the pack of Rogues split in two, revealing the handsome stranger I had one-time s*x with. My eyes widen, my heart racing faster but my chest feels constricted, like a vice is tightening around it. How did I stupidly give my body to the Alpha of the Rogue? Someone whose father caused the death of my mother. I clutch onto my chest, fighting to grasp when he suddenly storms toward me, gripping my hand. “You are my reason for showing up here, Mate,” he pulls me behind him. Mate? What is this man speaking of? The Moon Goddess is too wicked to connect my fate with the son of my mother’s murderer. The weakness I feel in my body makes me vulnerable as he makes to leave with me when Alpha Krypto suddenly holds my other hand, “She is already married to me, and you have no right over her,” he roars, and I notice the anger that fills the eyes of both men.
