Melissa's pov
I laid down with shaky legs scared of what was to come. I closed down my eyes tightly to embrace the pain. When the heavy stick hits my bare back, I knew this was the end for me. It radiates down my spine. It hurts like shit.Steven showed no mercy at all to my back. His beating grew more intense as I refused to cry. That is what he loves best, to see us beg for his mercy. I've sworn to myself to grow stronger till the end.I winced loudly as he gave me the final blow. It hits home and that left me paralyzed." Get up!" He shouted as if talking to a dog " Next time, you'll learn to obey rules"I dragged my dress up, hiding my nakedness from the perverted guards staring at me and even worse Steven. Since I step my foot here, he had been on my case and will not rest till he sees to it that he breaks me like how he has done to others.I could feel my blood rushing out from the open wounds. I stared right at Steven " Can I leave?" He sneered at me " you lack no manners at all. I wish the alpha will give the order to end your life right now"...I smirked making him angrier" but he didn't"He was about dashing at me when the room got opened by the alpha himself." Alpha" Steven and the other guards bowed to show some respect. I also did the same showing the hurt look on my face." I can see the punishment is over," Alpha Ronald said folding his arms. He looks my way with this look of disgust." Should we add more to the punishment alpha?" Steven asked with evil intent.I feared what will be the alpha's response because if he agrees to Steven's wish, I should consider myself dead. This will surely be the end of me The Alpha waved his hand dismissively" I believe this is enough for now. She knows better not to make a run next time"I was scared shitless from his hard looks. He is full of wickedness and doesn't mind showing that " I won't repeat that next time Alpha. Please pardon me this last time."Steven scoffed " As if she'll change"Alpha Ronald glared at him " Did I order you to talk?"I would have jumped up in joy seeing Steven scared but now isn't the time for that. He shook his head in submission" I'm sorry alpha "Alpha Ronald look in my direction again " If you think you can run the next time then consider yourself stupid because I'll make sure I slice your throat open before that happens" " There won't be the next time, I promise " I wiped my tears." Whatever you see deem fit for you" he shrugged " You can leave the two of us now " he commanded at his guards.Steve made sure to look at me in disgust before he finally left the room.My legs began to move on their own. I knew exactly what this is about and I'm never allowing it to happen.Alpha Ronald stride my way and the next thing he grabbed me by my neck and kissed me hard. I winced as he bites me on the lips. This isn't the first time and won't be the last. He'd turned me to his bed mistress and will use me any way he likes without my consent.He pushed me on the bed making me shrieked in the process. I stared at him in fear not ready for anything at all. .Luckily for me, I never allowed him to have his way with me. He only touches me in place and has never had sex with me. How I was able to survive that, I don't know. It disgusts me a lot when he does such things to me. It makes me want to puke all the time. I wonder how my mate will feel when he finds out I have been touched in places by another man.That is if we ever find our mate, my wolf said in my head. Sometimes I forget that I share my thought with my wolf because of the amount of time she always interrupts me.I end my thoughts as I felt alpha Ronald going for my pant. I held onto his hand to stop him." Please don't " I pleaded with wide eyes.He looks angry at my attempt " Raise your hands" he ordered and I know not to disobey. He pulled off my shirt not caring if I had blood in them. The wound is already healing all thanks to my wolf genes" Please Alpha" I pleaded "It's better you shout up and let's get this over with "I felt helpless allowing him to do as he pleases with me. I felt really dirty.****I dragged myself to my room after my encounter with alpha Ronald. I went straight to the bathroom to wash away his dirt on me. I wish I had a strong power that I can use to end his life.I rested my back on the wall feeling helpless and heartbroken. A few minutes later I came out of the bathroom and changed into new clothes. It was time for dinner and it's best I go on time before I end up not having anything in my stomach.I closed the door to my room which I share with Ashley. She must be worried right now for me.***I stared around the dining room where we Slaves eat. Slaves were their name for us. It's been four years now since I got kidnapped by the people of the West. We were all kidnapped against our wish and they made sure to use us as they deserve. Some ended up killing themselves because the pain was just too much to endure. We are lucky they consider feeding us but it isn't still enough to make us feel full. We have no choice but to leave with whatever is given to us " Melissa!" Ashley cried out as she saw me from afar. She waved me over and I didn't waste any time to go join her." I've missed you. Where the hell have you been?" She asked in worried.I sat down beside her " I was taken to the punishment room" I whispered.She felt bad " I'm sorry I couldn't do anything to help"I waved it off" it's no big deal, I can handle it "" so now what? We aren't going to attempt running away again?" She whispered not wanting the rest to hear us.I gave her a determined look " Trust me, Ashley, I will never give up no matter the punishment. I must see to it that we escape"" Are you crazy?!" She almost shrieked " Does this punishment mean nothing to you? Do you love the idea of always getting punished all the time? ".I scoffed" you don't know me, Ashley. When I put my mind on something, I'll make sure I achieve it "" You sound scary right now. Are you sure you're ok?"I shrugged " I guess living here just made me stronger. I want to see my family again. I want to be able to find my mate "" We all want that but the right way"" The right way you say?" I looked at her as if she was crazy " what is the right way then? So you mean allowing these dogs to use us as they please is the right way? If you aren't tired of it then fine but I am sick and tired of it all. I need to leave this place if I don't want to run mad"She looked around to see if people were listening to our conversation. Amongst us here, we know there is an insider that always gives Alpha Ronald a clue on what's going on because I wonder how he knew I
I was perplexed. This can't be happening right now." What..t do you...u mean by that...Alpha?" I just couldn't help but ask.Alpha Ronald laughed at my shocked face. He dragged me closer, fanning his breath on my face. He caged my whole body, leaving just a small space for me to breathe.For a typical girl, he'll be called attractive with his looks but right now, I only see him as a pervert that will do anything to force himself on helpless ladies. Sometimes, I wonder if he'll ever find his mate because no woman would want to be with a man like him. He makes me want to puke.I held my breath not wanting to take in his alcohol smell. I'm very sure he just had a drink" You'll be my spy. I want you to always report whatever you find strange to me when you get there " he repeats.I looked at him as if he was crazy. How was I going to do that?As if reading my mind, he smiled " Don't worry, I'll tell you how to do it. I have an insider around th
She looked at me in worried" what about you? I hope the Alpha didn't punish you again?"I was sure she was going to be happy when she finds out that we are going to the North together. This time around I'll be free from her shenanigans." Not at all Ashley"She looks at me in disbelief " So you don't want to tell me anything again? I thought we share secrets""It's nothing Ashley. The only thing I was told when I got to his office was, I'll be going with you guys"She looks confused at first " How? How comes he changed his mind "I shrugged " Who cares. Anyways, isn't that what you wanted"" Yes but....." She paused when she realized what she said: " Why are you making it sound as if I was jealous?"" Please don't start with this drama of yours, I was only saying "She rolled her eyes." Welcome to the pack but I must say, you lack no respect for my kingdom at all. Y'all didn't have to trespass, all you should have done i
Ashley went into a daze as if reminiscing the moment it happened. She sighed then look up at me " My boyfriend sold me "...I was almost shocked at my saliva " What?"She waved it off as if it doesn't bother her " What's done is done. He invited me to his home for the first time and like the stupid girlfriend I was, I was so excited that I'll finally know where he leaves. He cooked for me and everything went smoothly not until I woke up the next day only to see myself in a different place where I was told that I was sold by him"" This iShe snorted " The worst is I pity any girl that will fall into his trap again. I'm sure I'm not the first and also not the last"I held her hand, proud to see how well she took everything. I never knew she was this strong " I'm sorry you went through this"Ashley chuckled " why are you saying it as if I was the only one that got kidnapped. Don't forget we both got kidnapped" Ashley pointed outI giggled " You
" We have 10 rooms available and if I'm not mistaken, I was told you all are 20 in numbers. This means two people per room. Let me make it easier for you then. You can choose your partner yourself so all I'm going to do is to pick ten people and I'll hand over a key each to this ten people selected. The key will have your room number, all you need to do is pick a partner and that's all."" We are roommates" Ashley whispered and I nodded" Let's wait and see who she'll give the keys to first before we can decide to be roommates. If one of us is lucky enough to receive one, then lucky us"She nodded in agreement" You're right "Granny Joanne moved forward to start handling the keys. She started from her left down to her right. She was finally standing in front of Ashley thinking she'll give Ashley a key, she didn't. She made a stop in front of me and I felt my breath stop. She gives me this kind of vibe that I don't understand.One thing I'm sure about is, I'm
"Why though?" asked granny Joanne as if reading my mind." This is so sudden. That pack has never participated in anything organized in our pack. Then suddenly their alpha came to plead with King Alpha to give them a chance. Why though? There must be a motive" the lady whispered and my heart made a thud sound.I was gasping for air, this isn't how I pictured my first day here. I can't believe we are being suspected.I was about to leave when her next question made me freeze."what is it about that girl, the one with the necklace? I saw how interested you were with the necklace "Granny Joanne cleared her throat " it's nothing really"" please tell me granny" the lady pleaded.There was a pause " Something is off about the necklace. I don't know what exactly and the worst is I couldn't get a sniff of her scent and the Alpha won't be too happy about that. You know how he always wants me to give him feedbacks about things like this most especial
" You shouldn't have done that"Ashley cried out " That was so rude of you"...I kept walking not listening to what she was saying. We were already given our uniforms and it is good to say it's nothing like the one given to us at the west pack. Everything about this place is just different, unlike all the rumors. What was remaining now is to see the King himself?He was still on a journey and is yet to be pack and it's kind of weird to say I just can't wait to finally meet him." I'm talking to you Melissa"Ashley brought me out of my thought" what is it again?"" I was talking to you and you went mute. You're becoming annoying " She glared at meI couldn't help but burst into fits of laughter " I think I should be the one saying that and not you. You, my friend, are beginning to avoid me and worst on our second day here and I understand. It's fine actually "" Don't try to emotionally trick me. I'm not avoiding you""Then why
We didn't realize the alpha was already on the chair ready to make his speech. Lena and I were too consumed by our conversation." let's listen," I told Lena and she nodded in agreement.This time around, I made sure I pushed the lady in front of me a little so that I can get a glimpse of the king." I am the king Alpha, the one you've all been waiting for " his voice sounds smooth and I can feel my wolf drooling.'He has a nice voice, Melissa' my wolf Lisa saidI rolled my eyes not wanting to get affected by that. Truth be told I felt it too, I felt some kind of pull but I don't understand. Maybe it's just me thinking too much.Since he was far from us, it was hard to see how he looks. I bet he is some ugly jerk that doesn't keep to his pants.'What if you're wrong?' My wolf questioned' Stop interrupting my thoughts, Lisa!' I snapped.Lisa pouted ' but why are you mean to me? I was only stating the fact'I mentally roll
