KATHERINE

"Okay. How is that possible? I'd rather have my brain splattered all over this room than accept to be a breeder." I stated, standing up from the bed abruptly as I stared at her , my eyes widening in jorror.

"Well girlie, when you got sold, you weren't given options on what to be wen you get here. You're rather lucky that you weren't recruited for cleaning and brushing of the toilet floors or the pack palace floors. You received the fair end so you should be grateful." I ran my fingers down my hairs as I heaved a sigh up and down trying to control myself and any sanity that I might have left.

"This is ridiculous, this is so ridiculous." I walked up to the window and took in my surroundings.

It depicted dark and cold just like how their Alpha was and that was the same situation with the inside.

Infact, I apologize for saying that the inside of this mansion is way more eerie and dark than the outside.

It gets worse as you go deeper.

"It is?" The lady asked and I couldn't fathom if she was trying to be nice and funny or trying to be sarcastic so I wasn't here which face I was supposed to make.

My confused face, I settle for that easily.

"No, I mean it in literal terms. Is it your definition of ridiculous? Because what's more ridiculous to me is that the Alpha wants you in his room in an hour and you haven't even started the first step of washing up. Now the Alpha doesn't take 'NO' as an answer and you don't want to get yourself and I in trouble so be cooperative and let me help you prepare." She rolled her eyes dramatically and she was exactly the kind of people I would love to Lodge my fist in their faces but she was right by one thing, I didn't know anyone here and I didn't want to get in trouble yet.

The room really depicted who he was. The bedroom was just plain and blande and the only decoration that was available was the black paintings on the wall and the black drapes and not to forget, the cry beautiful portrait of his parents I presume.

She helped me prepare and led me to the Alpha's room, he wasn't in the room when I got there but I was expected to wait for him.

The door creaked open and my heart began thudding, I feel like anyone standing even a mile away 2oukd hear the sound of heart .

You're here." He muttered pulling off the gloves that covered his skin up. He had a very fine skin, almost as clear milk just for the records.

"I'm here." I repeated, my voice shaky berating the courage I had tried to slam on my face.

"Strip." He said in one word as he grabbed a cup and a jug, filling the cup with water and drank it down in one go.

"I'm sorry, what?" I squinted my eyes as I began playing with my fingers. None of this is happening. It's all in my head.

"You heard me. Didn't you Mia cara?" He tilted his head and I gulped taking just a sliver of a second to appreciate his handsome. This man was built like a Greek god and the fact that he had taken his shirt off wasn't helping matters.

Did someone shut out all the source of ventilation because I need air more than anything now.

"I'm not stripping." I refused.

No matter how hot he is, I refuse to be a stripper.

"Did you say something?" Using his wolf devilish speed, he was right in front of me slamming me into the wall as he stared at me with irritation.

"Get into bed." He commanded but I stood my grounds and shook my head in negativity. I'm not supposed to defile him but from the look of things I was pissing him.

"Katherine, I'm giving you one last chance to reconsider your actions." Only the sound of his voice made a sharp chill run down my spine as fear engulfed. His hands tightened on my neck and I could feel his Claws searing into my flesh.

"Look at you trying to act tough. I saved you from wandering your entire life as a homeless orphan because apparently no one else would pick you with that corrupted blood you have." As the last sentence left his mouth, he immediately disentangled himself from me like I was some form of plague or disease.

"My blood isn't corrupted." I defended and the corner of his lips coiled up in a smirk.

"Let me be the judge of that." He clenched some strands of my hair—a generous amount—and dragged me by the hair out of the bedroom untill we got to a....A dungeon?

"What am I doing here?" I found myself asking as he opened one of the doors with stealth throwing me inside.

He was walking off when I asked:

"How long would I stay inside of this place?" I scrunched my nose as the smell of decompose hit my nostrils.

"If there was enough time in the world to purge you out of that evil blood that runs through your mind, that's how long you'd be in there." And with that, he walked off.

"Aren't you the new breeder?" I heard someone's voice from the door and my eyes jerked up to know the owner of the voice.

"I'm Beta Edward Adams, the Royal beta. Did Derek lock you in here?" I nodded my head in affirmation and he fumbled with his pocket before producing a bunch of keys and after testing out a few, he finally got the one that opened up the door.

"I still don't understand, why does the Alpha hate me so much?" I questioned sipping on a herbal tea that Edward said would make me feel better from the pain and sores.

"Let us just say your parents may or may not have been involved his parents death. Why do you think he bought you in the first place? Revenge."
