Chapter 3

As big as the castle was, only the alpha and his family alongside Beta Roy and his family are allowed to live there. However, Feather's family has been killed many years ago by Brett. 

Beta Roy's wife, Irma and her daughter Barbara had always longed and done everything possible for Feathers to take a notice of Barbara's beauty but it has not been working. 

Neither of the mother nor the daughter forsee that a day would come when a lady would be brought to live with them in the castle. What's worse was that she entered Feather's room on her first day here. Barbara had always wished for a day like that when she would be able to step her foot into Feather's room but it just had never worked. 

This explains why Irma and her daughter were going crazy. 

"I'm not trying to seduce him... He invited me to his room," Celine stuttered. 

"He invited you? Who did you think you are that the great Alpha Feathers would invite you to his room?" Irma asked. 

"Listen carefully to me, don't go near his room anymore and avoid hin as much as you can, understood?" Irma shouted on her. 

"Yes, ma," Celine responded politely. 

"You are just a slave and that's all you will ever be, so know your place in this castle," Barbara said to Celine and then dismissed her. 

After Celine had left, Irma said to Barbara," don't worry about her, she's just an ugly slave and would never in this world be considered by Alpha Feathers." 

Barbara went to sit beside her mother and said," I wonder what Alpha Feathers could have invited her over for." 

"Her father killed Alpha Feather's parent, my guess is that he brought her to the castle so he can punish her himself. Don't worry, Barbara. It's impossible for that poor thing to ever find the favour of Alpha Feathers plus we can always make her life a living hell," Irma said and Barbara nodded, still a little disturbed. 

As soon as Celine got inside her room, tears fell freely down her cheek. She had never imagined herself being slapped. Today was the first day she got slapped and apart from the pain she felt on her cheek, she felt an even greater pain in her heart. 

She sat on the bed slowly and began to cry, she remembered how many guards use to answer at her call and how much respect she wills all over her father's territory. Other wolves don't even have the gut to look at her face when talking to her but here was she, being slapped for the first time in her life. 

While in her sad state, an idea suddenly popped on her head. How about running away? The least that Feathers would think of was her running away. She looked slim and young and no one would most definitely see that coming. 

Although she has no fighting skills, she was determined to fight her way out of here. She would rather live as a rougue rather than live here in the castle with her father's greatest enemy as though she was a prisoner. 

When it was night, she stood from her bed and walked towards the door, she twisted the knob of the door gently but to her surprise, the door wasn't opening. She tried it a number of times but it wasn't opening still. It seemed to her as if she had been locked up. 

She hit the door a number of times hoping a guard opens the door for her, in no time, the door got opened. Standing before her was a burly man," what did you want?" He asked. 

"I..." She wasn't used to lying as she had never even see any reason to lie but at the moment, she had to save herself in order to escape from here. 

She hit the man in the face and pushed him hardly away after which she ran away from him. What happened was so unexpected and the guard didn't predict at the very least that the young lady that had just been brought to the castle would do that. 

Where does she think she was going? Was she planning to escape? She must be joking to think she can escape from here. The guard thought and ran speedily after her. 

Celine hid behind a pillar all of a sudden when she saw about seven guards with weapons in their hands before the large gate that secured the castle. At the same time, the man she hit and pushed was running after her. 

She had to do something, at this moment, she wished that she has a supernatural power that can help her escape but she hasn't even shifted before not to talk of ever having a supernatural power. 

The man that was running behind her eventually caught up with her and effortlessly saw her hiding by the pillar. He smirked and asked," did you really think you can escape?" As soon as the man spoke, the seven guards guarding the gate of the castle heard and few approached the man that was speaking to Celine. 

The man after Celine reported to the gate guardians that Celine tried to run away. 

"Alpha Feathers must hear of this," one of the gate guardians said. 

Celine furrowed her brow in shock. Feathers already disliked her and was probably planning something terrible for her, if he gets to find out that she tries to escape, won't that be a bigger problem on her side?" 

"Please don't tell him," Celine pleaded earnestly. 

"Unfortunately for you, we have to. You should have known better to stay quietly where you are kept." One of the gate guardian said and then said to the man who ran after Celine to take her to Feathers.

The man grabbed her slender hand with his big palm and began to drag her to Feather's miditating room. At this time of the hour, Feathers spends his time in his meditating room alone.
