Chapter 28
Aurora
I followed behind the huge guard with tears hanging in my eyes, turning to look at Alex but she was gone.
For the first time since I arrived at the pack, I felt alone.
My only companion left me to my horrible fate.
I couldn’t blame her, circumstances were beyond her control.
Cold breeze enveloped me, making me quiver as I brought my hands to hug each other.
My heart throbbed as fear slowly crept into me, swallowing me gradually.
The guard was about to turn the doorknob when it opened by itself…no, it was opened by a woman.
The moaning lady.
Her cold hard stares were enough to freeze me on the spot.
She halted in her tracks, shooting me a look while I watched her, unable to speak.
Maybe, cat got my tongue.
From her aura, I could sense that she was important since it screamed authority and respect.
I lowered my head, tearing my gaze from her penetrating ones.
“Who is she?” Her mean voice rang, demanding immediate answers.
Without looking at her, I could tell she expected an answer from me, but fear held my tongue, making words elude me.
“I’m sorry, mistress. She was brought according to the Alpha King’s instructions.” I released a tensed breath that I didn’t know I was holding, silently thanking the guard for coming to my rescue.
A wave of her jealousy tingled my nostrils, making me gasp in shock.
Why was she jealous?
Does she think I was here to steal the King from her?
She could have him to herself if that’s what she wanted.
I never wanted all this to happen anyway. And the last thing on my mind was to get into trouble with any woman because of the King’s attention. I wasn’t that desperate.
“I asked her, not you.” Anger was evident in her voice.
I almost tripped when I felt her burning gaze on me.
“Who are you, what are you doing here and what is your name?” She bombarded me with questions, leaving me confused by the one-time answer.
Fear gripped me, shaking me so hard that I almost forgot what she asked.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Reluctantly, I raised my head to meet her, struggling with words.
“I…” My quivering voice shook, forcing me to keep mute.
“Can’t you talk? Cats got your tongue?!” She fired, flashing her hateful eyes at me.
“And next time, when I am talking to you, your eyes should be pinned to your feet, understand?” she asked, fuming in anger.
“Yes, ma’am,” I answered, lowering my gaze to meet my feet at once.
I didn’t want to get on the bad side of this mean lady.
I could smell her anger oozing out of her like a raging volcano.
Relief washed through me when the angry lady walked away from us, muttering inaudible words.
Her legs shook as she took light steps. I could tell that she was fucked so hard.
“Go in.” The guard’s order brought me back to life.
I felt my soul leave my body when the huge double doors were opened to reveal the most beautiful room.
One would have been happy entering, but the reverse was the case in my situation.
My legs threatened to collapse as I drew closer to where the Alpha King sat, watching me intensely.
I jumped in fear, halting in my tracks when the door was shut with a bang.
Panic ran through me and sweat broke down my forehead when I realized I was lonely with King Damon.
My fear multiplied by a hundred the moment he stood up from the couch, leaning against a table with a dark smirk on his face.
What was he going to do to me?
I blinked hard, forcing my blurry vision to get cleared to avoid colliding with things.
“King…Damon,” I greeted, unable to form the right words.
My fear heightened when I heard his heavy footsteps. “Let’s get this straight. The moment you enter this castle, you cease to be the Alpha’s daughter. I don’t care if his blood still runs in your veins. You don’t belong to your parents anymore and you are not higher than anyone here unless I say so,” he stated harshly.
“You belong to me. You are my property. Mine. Mine to use and dispose of when I’m bored. You are a bot, your feelings are unwelcomed. Your services include pleasing me, not the other way around. You are a toy and you will always remain as one.”
Dumbfounded by his words, my head remained glued to my feet as tears gathered in my eyes.
I was done. This was the end of my life.
“And you don’t get to call my name.”
“I’m sorry…my…King.” I said in an uncertain manner with my eyes tightly shut as I awaited his bashing.
His words were like painful lashes that seemed across the body, bruising it and leaving a permanent scar on it.
When I thought Nathalia was cruel, I found her master.
“That’s better.” He went silent for a brief moment. “Come closer.” He ordered, making my blood stop flowing.
I thought my heart fell from my chest as he ordered.
Come closer? Why?
I liked a bit of distance.
Unable to move, I remained in my spot, with my head bowed, praying silently for him to dismiss me.
My heart thundered as it threatened to explode in my chest as fear and anxiety clouded me.
Someone help!
Fighting was useless as he was more powerful than I was and it would only attract further punishments.
“Don’t make me repeat myself. I hate it!” he growled, making my heart jump in fear.
Each step became unbearably heavy as I made my way towards the table he leaned on, trembling like I had seen a ghost.
Before I could process what was happening, his large hands caught my slim waist, grabbing it and pulling it to meet the strangely wide table.
It happened so fast and before I could turn to resist, I was pinned to the table with his bulge pressing behind my lower back.
“Please.” I cried, unable to move any part of my body as his fingers ran freely on me.
“Don’t beg.” With those words, my clothes came off, leaving me almost bare before him.
