Chapter 7

Feathers pushed the door to his room open and walked in with her, he let go of her arms and said," have you even bathed since you came here?" 

She shook her head in response and answered," I have not been chanced to. I have been inside..." 

"Are you intentionally trying to look disgusting before me?" He interrupted, looking at her disgustingly. She even looked slimmer before him. 

She shook her head in response and wished that he would at the very least let her complete her statement. 

"Go and take your bath, then come back here," he ordered and went to sit on the large golden chair. 

Celine remembered that he had not even eaten the food at the dinning table so she asked concernedly," why don't you eat?" 

He furrowed his brow and stood, then walked up to her, he grabbed her chin and said with a painful heart," don't ever ask me such question anymore." His voice was stern but his face was red and his heart was torn cause that statement made him remember Geneva, his latw mate that got beheaded by Celins's father. 

Celine was scared with the way he ordered her not to say such words anymore but even deeper than that, she could see into his soul and can tell that he was broken.

"Understood?" He barked on her and before she could even respond, he shoved her to the wall. She crashed to the wall and winced in pain a little. 

"Understood," she answered and lowered her head. She turned in an attempt to go and take her bath but her belly made some rumblings so she turned and said to him," I'm hungry." 

"I don't care either you have eaten or not, get out and change your dress then come back here," he ordered, making her walk away swiftly. 

She was so weak and barely have stamina, it had been three days now that she had not tasted food nor water. When she was with her father, she eat anytime she wants. There were numerous guards that were readily willing to obey whatever command she gives, yet now, she was living the life of a slave. 

Life can really give someone what they never expect but she will hold on and not give up, there could be hope at the end of the tunnel. She supported herself with the wall as she walked slowly away. 

She decided to drink water firstly cause she was madly thirsty, she eye searched around and wandered around until she find a large entrance and on peeping, she saw that it was a kitchen. 

She thanked her stars that there was no one in the kitchen, she walked towards where the water was, she picked a cup and switched on the small tap. At least, this water will make her feel better. 

She filled the cup in no time and switched off the tap, when the cup was almost reaching her mouth, someone slapped it away making both the cup and water fall away. 

Sadness held onto her heart tightly immediately as she felt even more parched she angrily turned to see whom this wicked person was and to her surprise, she saw Barbara standing with a ferocious look on her face. 

"What gave you the right to enter the royal Kitchen? Are you aware that slaves are not allowed to enter the royal Kitchen?" Barbara asked and before Celine could say a word, she clapped as a signal and two guards appeared at once. 

"A slave is here trying to steal something from the royal Kitchen, serve her the punishment you will normally serve a thief," Barbara commanded. 

The two guards held onto her weak hands immediately and she quickly spoke," Alpha Feathers is expecting me in his room, he had commanded me to go and bath and come back to his room." 

When Barbara heard this, her head almost explode. 

"You fucking prostitute," she placed her two hands on the hem of her cloth and tore it, before it could reveal her bra and cleavage before the men, she quickly held the torn clothes together with sadness and fear on her face. 

"You deserve to walk the street naked," Barabara yelled," what in the world did you do to him that made him want you?"

"I did nothing," Celine answered frustratingly, "I did not seduce him, he's always punishing me whenever he invites me over to his room." She was seriously struggling for tears not to fall off her face. 

Barbara calmed after hearing this, she dismissed the two guards that were about taking her away then she folded her arms, "now tell me what punishment he gives you in there?" 

Instead of replying, Celine said," one day, I will make you regret this molestation you are making me suffer." Barbara could slap her and do all she wants with her but tearing her clothes in the face of other men hurts her dignity so bad. In their culture, a lady doesn't have much dignity once her privact parts has been revealed. This is why their women wore clothes that only reveals half of their arms, half of their legs and their face, their body are always covered. 

"You dare to speak to me this way, you slut," Barbara said and spat on her face, "you will always be under my foot. Always! I assure you. If you ever think a day will come when you will have more power than me, then you are just dreaming. You are the only daughter of your father and the one who's supposed to be the next alpha but your father is dead and you are now serving as our slave, plus Alpha Feathers will always inflict punishment on you because of what your father did to his loved ones in the past, now tell me, how will you ever become powerful than me?" Barbara asked. 

Celine felt very bad when she spat on her, she cleaned the messy spit off her face with her torn cloth, her heart was hurting so bad and she was feeling an excruciating pain in her body. 

"If I didn't appear before Alpha Feathers in a couple of minutes, he will search for me," rather than answering Barbara's question, she gave her a reason why she should leave. 

"Did you tell Alpha Feathers that you have been in the dark room all day?" Barabara asked, that was the main reason why she was searching for Celine and eventually found her in the Kitchen. If Celine tells Feathers about it, he would look into it and discover that she was the one who made such order. In that case, he would punish her and her family severely. 

"I did not, can I leave now?" Celine asked, her throat was now dry and she could barely swallow any saliva. 

Barabara heaved a sigh and said, "I'm watching you," she then walked away majestically. 

When Celine saw that she was rather leaving, she quickly turned back to the tap, picked a cup and before she could even switch on the tap so that water can pour to the cup, Barabara turned and bark at her," get out!" 

Her shout was so heavy that it vibrated round the entire walls of the kitchen. 

"Please, I'm very thirsty," she pleaded earnestly. 

"Die of thirst, bitch, get out before I get guards to throw you out," Barbara shouted on her and she walked out weakly. 

How can someone be this heartless? In all of her life, she had never seen someone as wicked as Barabara. 

She walked to her room and went to bath then changed to a yellow slave wear, since there was no mirror in the room, she could only look at herself with her eyes. She didn't even know how she looked on it. 

Gone are the days when she dresses in noble regalia and was always escorted by numerous female omegas of her pack. People consider it as a privilege to even talk to her but here was she, dressed in an ordinary slave wear. She shook her head pitifully for herself and walked out. 

When she got before Feather's room, she knocked on the door to be sure that she was not barging on him. 

"Get in," a stern voice commanded from inside. She opened the door and walked in then closed the door gently. 

Feathers at this time was seated at the edge of the bed taking a look at a small frame that contained the picture of Geneva. He stood and hung it back then turned to her, the dress she was wearing was a yellow oversized gown that didn't reveal neither of her shape nor her beauty. 

Her hair weren't combed as there was no comb provided for her in the room and she dared not to ask anyone. Only her small innocent face holds beauty. 

"My enemy's daughter," he said angrily as he approached her, "kneel!" He suddenly commanded as he got before her. 

She looked at his stern and hard face and wondered why he wanted her to kneel. She was here for punishment and disobeying the alpha wasn't an option so she knelt.
