21st of January. 12:00
Someone kick me in the ass! I'm possibly dreaming." You got to be fucking me!" I said out loud. I didn't realize I said fucking instead of kidding.
" So sorry to say we don't have time to help your fantasies. Now if you are over being a child, please take a seat, so we can discuss something " Alistair said in his melodious voice.
I'm sure my face was as red as Tomahto's. I walked quietly and sat in front of him. The sofa was so comfortable but it did nothing to ease my nerves so I just sat on the edge.
"Can someone explain to me what is happening here?" I asked no one in particular. I saw that Gabe is standing not so far away. A woman leaned into his shoulder looking at the scene unfolding in front of her.
I assume she is his girlfriend or something. Just great. I was feeling warm for not only my Kidnapper but also probably a committed man.
I narrowed my gaze at them just when I heard an inhuman growl. I yelped when I turned my head to find Alistair growling like an animal or more accurately A beast.
"Are you out of your goddamn out of your mind????" I shrieked.
" When I'm talking to you... You will look at me! You'll only look at me " He roared. I flinched. Call me a pervert but his growls did something to my very core.
I nodded which seems to calm him down a little bit still he said: "Everyone leaves us!" It didn't take a second for everyone to leave. Everyone accepts Gabe.
Which seems to only anger Alistair more "Gabriel—was I not clear with my wordings? Fucking leave this moment!". He yelled. His nails dug into the surface of the couch he was sitting, on with a force that should have not been possible for a human, that tore the fabric.
Gabe just flicked his gaze to me as if to check I'll be safe, causing Alistair to growl more. With a final nod. Gabe left.
Leaving me with Alistair. Who seems to barely hold his sanity. I was more dazed than scared now. It looks like I'm his most prized possession and he wants non near me.
His gaze meets mine "Are you scared of me Clara?" He said as he stood and stepped closer to me. My breath hitched. He thought it was because I was scared and he leaned toward me.
"You should be scared..." He started but I cut him off.
" I'm not scared but I'm curious," I said my breath fanning his face. He was so close almost touching.
"Curious about what?" He asked. Looking into my eyes.
I breathed deeply "You should not have been able to do that," I said eyeing the couch.
His gaze flicked toward it for a second before getting back to me. "You should not interfere in other's matters," he said.
"I feel like this is my matter since I was there last night for you then you paid and ran off—which I should be there thankful for—and then the next morning I was kidnapped no actually I have frozen first before being kidnapped, then now here you're being so inhuman as if I'm something you own" I explained to him by the time I finished I was out of my breath.
He just stared at me before straightening "Follow me!" He said.
He took off without waiting for my response. But then again. He doesn't have to.
I huffed before following him.
The only thing worth enjoying is the beautiful architecture. Everything was pure perfection here. While I might be looking rugged. Hell, they didn't even let me do my morning chorus. I'm smelling like shit with morning breath.
I slammed into a hard chest. Realized when I was lost in my thoughts, at some point, Alistair had stopped and turned, causing me to slam into his chest. An oh-so-sexy chest.
"Sorry," I mumbled dragging my gaze up to him. Only his focus was not on my eyes. He was staring intently towards my chest, a hunger in his gaze. I looked down to see what made him so riled up.
I found my girls almost about to pop out from the loose chest of the dress. I don't have what one would call sexy tits but the dress pushing them up almost made them look huge.
I blushed, pushing the dress up to cover my girls. Alistair caught my move and narrowed his eyes, not at all ashamed about the fact that he was checking me out.
"It'll be your room," He said looking towards the door on his right.
Wait a minute "My room? Mr. King, I know you have kidnapped me but trust me no one in this world will give a penny for me...I have a room at home and a family to get back to but that's it. My brother can't even afford to tie his shoes let alone withdraw me from your hold" I ramble out.
Alistair laughed at this. But it was not polite "You think I'll kidnap you for money? And I do expect your killer of a brother to pay me for you?" He said between his laugh.
"Yeah, I. Wait~ what did you just say???" I asked my eyes widening. I just realized he refers to my brother as the killer.
My breathing accelerated. "I know your brother killed your stepdad'' He said as if he was talking about the weather.
He continued " Now you have two choices, Stay with me for the next four months and I'll help you get away as you have planned. Or you can choose to leave and maybe your fourteen year's old brother will end ups in prison" He threatened.
Four months. One twenty-one days. Days which can ruin me. Every day that will pass can risk our secret getting revealed. But it can be exposed in a blink.
How does Alistair know about me or my secret? Why he wants me for twenty-one days? Why me only? He can have any woman at the snap of his finger. Right? Right.
I have so many questions but all I said was "I will stay" which caused him to smirk. I get inside the room. My room. Or more accurately. My prison for the next twenty-one days.
Because. What choice do I have?
22nd January 03:57 I had fallen asleep as soon as Alistair had gone. The comforter of the king-size bed was so soft that I had not given it a second thought before laying down. I woke up when my hunger was unbearable. But I didn't dare to leave the room. God knows what next I'll be faced with. The door of the room opened and Gabe came in. The room is so large, yet still, he closed the distance between us in mere steps. Which should not be possible for a normal person again. I glared at him waiting for him to speak. "You are making a face like you hadn't known what we're capable of doing," He said, with an unusual softness in his voice "Yeah, I just found out you are capable of kidnapping someone and making them your prisoner without a second thought!! So what? Now I should do everything you said or you will kill me?!!" I yelled at him. He just sat down on the bed, touching my cheeks, and shocking me again. As much as I want to maintain my distance from him. I just can't resist t
22nd January 7:09 Have you ever felt like you are trapped in between a volcano just when you were about to be free, you got trapped again? I literally can relate to this. Whole my life I tried to run away from my stepfather, but couldn't because of Yahya. Now that we were about to get free, I'm again stuck in a place where raging beasts are okay to roam around. God!!! That beast was really not something I've ever seen before. it was like a wolf but at the same time it was not. After running back to my room, I had hidden beneath the bed, holding my knees to my chest my breath heaving. I tried to not make a sound because I for once wants to see my baby brother. The thought of Yahya made my eyes wet with tears. Just when the door opened, I stopped breathing. "Clara!" a familiar voice roared my name. Alastair. I quickly got out from under the bed. I saw Alastair standing near the door looking around when his gaze fell on me. He growled. O God not again. "Stop growling you bastard
23 January 05: 53 I woke up when I heard a firm yet soft knock on my door. I'm a light sleeper so it's usual for me to wake up at a tiny sound even. I pad my way to the door, one of these days I'll explore my beautiful large room, I haven't yet. Opening the door slightly I found an array of women. The one standing in front of me was about eighteen years or something old. Petite beautiful blonde, wearing an apron over a black dress. Cute but formal. She beamed at me "Good morning Madame! I'm Melissa, this is my team. We're here to get you ready for today" She said. I looked at the clock hanging above my queen size bed. "As nice as it is to meet you. It's just six in the early morning, I am okay with getting ready on my own " She looked down, disappointed "Madame I can't leave you on your own, Alpha will fire us!" Said she. What a title for a smug bastard, Alpha huh? I smiled slightly " What is special today?" I asked, opening the door wide, indicating them to get in, which the
23 January 2:34 I walked downstairs to find Melissa waiting for me, I smiled at her, the smile covering almost my face. I've never had the money to send Yahya to Kindergarten, hell, even though I am not graduated. It was my dream to study and get graduated but financial support is a bitch I don't own. But Alastair sent Yahya to school. The kid will finally be able to meet children his age and maybe he'll make friends too. All thanks to the broody Billionaire. "Madame— I mean Clara, Alpha is outside waiting for you," she said. But I frowned. "Melissa, how did you get that?" I asked when I saw a claw mark on her neck. She quickly tried to hide it. "It's nothing!" She said as I close up to her. "What nothing Mel, It's like an animal tried to slit you apart," I said my concern palpable in my voice. "Oh Yeah–Yes actually a stray dog tried to attack me, I don't know why, I guess it was wild or something. But please I'll be fine, it doesn't hurt" She tried to convince me. The claw m
23 January 09:12 Letia smiled at me before linking my arm with her. "I know it can be hard for you to live with Mr. King, He can be broody at times," she said walking me up to a round table where a few refreshments are laid. "You don't even want to know," I told the truth. Rolling my eyes. She laughed a little. "A personality like him sometimes gets hard to understand but we can't blame him. He had never been with a woman like ever" she said. I frowned sitting down on a chair, my legs are sore in ten minutes only "Never?" She shook her head " Never, He is a working type of person rather than a social person. Actually, it's been ages since he came to a gathering like this" She said sitting down beside me. I grinned "You're saying like that's thousand of years when I'm sure Alastair is somewhere between his mid-twenties only" She grinned with me just as Alastair and Rhett came back. Letia stood up to greet Rhett with a kiss. What Alastair did surprised me, He wounded his arms ar
1st February 11: 32 Groaning I opened my eyes. My head feels like shit. I feel sore all over my body. It's like I've been sleeping for ages. I opened my eyes to find myself in a king-sized bed and I was covered in tubes and plucks. My nostril holds a breathing tube. Alastair was sitting in a chair at the edge of my bed. He was asleep. There were dark circles around his eyes. The wolf locket dangling from his neck. Similar to mine. Images after images started to peek into my brain. I remember everything, going to the party, meeting Letia and Rhett and many more friends. Saving the pup and finding the drunk men. Finally, I remember the most important part. Alastair changes into a beast in mid-air. The very beast who attacked Gabriel. I gasped trying to sit up only to fall back with a thud. With those memories came an unbearable headache. It caused Alastair to woke up. "Clara, you're finally awake," He said. He tried to come near me, but I flinched. "Don't come near me!" I yelled
1st February 2:32 I've processed everything in my mind. Living with a pack of Werewolves, Check. Having a mate for life and death. Check. Having no say in this matter. Check. Mate is the King of all wolves. Double check. When Melissa came to my room, I realized that maybe she too is a werewolf. I asked her the same thing. She nodded "I am, but I m the weakest of the pack," said she. "That day the mark on your neck, it was not a dog's claw right?" I asked her She shakes her head "That was Madam Seline's claw mark, she told me to bring her tea and I got late" Seline? She's here, come to think of it, I actually didn't meet Seline. And why would she claw this poor woman for a tiny mistake? I hadn't known I'd asked the last question out loud until Melissa answered "She's not bad. She is just going rogue. It's been hard for her to stay human that's why she is mostly out in the forest or in her room" I nod in understanding and changed the subject. " So what is it means to be mated?
1st February 4:13 I inhaled deeply before walking in the direction of Alastair. The woman arched her brow. I ignored her and went straight for Alastair's lap. I sat on him, wounding my arms around his neck, I kissed his cheek. The woman's eyes widened. Yes! Take that bitch! "Baby, what took you so late to come home? I was waiting for you" I asked in a fake enthusiasm. I saw Alastair trying to hide his laugh in my tummy, I even don't know why I flirted with him to make a jealous mess of this woman. But what's done is done. Alastair cleared his throat wrapping an arm around me and pulling me plush against his chest. I saw the moment that caught Gabriel's attention, did I imagine or did he really grit his jaw? I didn't get the time to observe more as a kiss on my neck feathered. "I'm sorry baby I was out for work and didn't get the chance to see the time," Alastair said. Playing along with me. I mentally rolled my eyes. I was just acting, but he doesn't feel like acting. Damn if it
