Emma pov "Alpha Lucas will see you now." The guard at the entrance to his room said.My heart jumped in fear as I realised he was talking to us. The beta grabbed me by the arm and dragged me forward to the door. The guard, whose face was grim and steely, looked away as we approached him. I looked up at him with desperate eyes, but he didn't meet my eyes. He wasn't ready to help me. Nobody would. I was stuck in this, all by myself.The beta opened the door and pulled me inside, and for a moment I forgot my troubles. The room he dragged me into was nothing short of grand. I couldn't see much: the lights had been turned off and only low lamps illuminated the room. But from the little my eyes could garner, I knew that I'd stepped into the room belonging to someone powerful.The several windows that punctuated the walls had been closed and the curtains drawn, giving the room a more gloomy look. I could see a four-poster bed in the far right: its curtains had been drawn too. Plush chairs
Emma pov.I stood in silence as his eyes moved over my body. This felt even more exposing than being naked. No man had ever seen my naked body; I felt my cheeks go red with embarrassment.The alpha raised a hand and skimmed the top of my breasts, just below my collarbone. I waited with halted breath for what he would do next, but he took his sweet time. His face remained impassive as he rubbed me, then suddenly his hand moved down and one of my breasts was in his grip.I almost cried out at the sudden pain. His grip was far from gentle. He seemed to derive pleasure from causing me pain, as I watched his eyes go dark with arousal. Soon my body became used to the rhythm of his squeezing and my cries of pain slowly turned to moans of pleasure. I wanted to wrap my arms around his neck and steady myself on his strong weight.I continued to moan and move back and forth on my feet as he continued to squeeze that one breast. Then his grip loosened and his hand moved to my nipples. He grabbed
Emma pov. I was bound in chains. I couldn't think of anything more degrading than that.The guard who had brought me asked me to stand before the door and wait for the signal to enter. I had no idea what was going on on the other side of the door, neither was I sure I was prepared for it.Were they going to finally kill me? Would I be sold into slavery? Would the alpha take pity on me and release me because of the steamy night we shared together?I wasn't very certain of the last thought. The look in his eyes as he had told me to get out of his room was one of pure hatred. I didn't think he liked me. All he just wanted was a good hard fuck.Lost in my gloomy thoughts, I barely noticed when the door opened. The guard who peeked from the opened door must have called my name several times, but I was too deep in thought. Then he yanked on my chains forcefully and I gave a small start, standing up and looking towards the door."The alpha is requesting for you." He said with a bored voice
Lucas pov . I watched as Lana walked out of the courtroom angrily. The whole room had been cast in silence as the Wolf Elders watched me for a reaction. I could feel their eyes on me, boring into my skin like drills. I fisted my hands, trying to control my anger. Anger at Lana who had just left, anger at the girl that knelt before me, her eyes downcast. She was the cause of all of this, the cause of the embarrassment from the Wolf Elders, the cause of the intense rage I felt brewing inside me. I wanted to grab her shoulders and shake her. I wanted her to be punished. I shouldn't have slept with her.I turned to one guard who stood on standby. "Take her out of here." I said, pointing to the woman on the ground. The guard bowed, then moved to the slave that knelt in the middle of the courtroom. "Hold it there!" Elder Ryker said, stopping the guard. Then he turned to me. "We're not done here. We have not closed this discussion. That girl—""I do not wish to continue this argument wi
I walked out of Lana's patio and back into her room, where she sat before her vanity table. She didn't even spare me a glance as I walked past her. Her back was straight and her eyes stared at nothing. Her sleek hair was straight and nothing was out of place. Even the tears that had been in her eyes mere seconds ago was gone now, and I wondered if I had imagined those teary eyes. She looked as though she hadn't been fazed by our conversation.I looked away from her and moved to the door, trying to put all thoughts of her away from my mind. I knew she would come around: she had no choice but to do so. She was my mate and she belonged to me. Her utmost loyalty was to me, and her place was by my side.I walked out of the room and towards the slave's quarters, where I knew that accursed girl would be. The slave quarters was located behind the main house and had just four rooms: two for the males and two for the females, in which all the slaves lived. I could afford to build a more habitab
Emma POV… It's been two days since I arrived at this place. Life hasn't been effortless for me, and the more I try to understand it, the more it appears incomprehensible to understand. I tried as much as possible to avoid getting into one disruption or the others. Did my chores just the same way Lady Josephine allocated them to me, but then Lady Josephine, was always against me. Whenever I try to do something right she claims it was wrong, but still, I didn't cease trying to do my best. I finished all my chores and then decided to retire to bed. I walked through the grassland, back to the slave compartments, and I mistakenly bumped into someone. " Watch where you're going, pig head! “enunciates a young girl with an ebony long follicle and a gorgeous face. “ I'm sorry I wasn't watching my steps, please forgive me. “ I quickly apologized to her and pivoted to leave, but then she dragged me back to the very locale I just left. " The problem is not about apologizing to me, but you
Emma pov : I lay on my bed to sleep, the terrible scene I saw back in the courtroom kept coming back to me. After a few hours of staying up late, I finally drifted into a deep sleep. Unexpectedly, I felt someone dabbing me. " Emma! You need to wake up, it's morning I bet you don't want Lady Josephine to come over here and harass you" Grace said. Yes! I knew it was morning, but right now all I wanted was to go into a deep slumber without waking up. What I witnessed yesterday, was the highest form of wickedness. Grace couldn't stop aggravating me, so I had no option but to get out of bed, then rushed out to take my bath. A few minutes after that I rushed back into the slave's chambers to get swathed. Then she tossed a brown gown at me. " Take, wear this. You have been in that same clothes for days now and trust me Emma you reek bad in those. " Grace enunciated as she continued dressing up for the day's chords. I quickly fit into the dress and then tied my hair up in
Alpha Lucas pov. "My lord! The war is fast approaching, but I like to address the issues of last time. " Elder Ryker said. " I don't think that's necessary for now Elder Ryker, we have to discuss more important issues. " I replied, I knew what he wanted to talk about but I wasn't ready to listen to whatever he had to say. " But my lord, " Elder Ryker interrupted. " Elder Ryker, I hope you know the discussion about the kings can have you beheaded. It's forbidden for anyone to talk or even have carnal knowledge of them. So I will advise you to forget about this discussion and let's focus more on the war at hand. In the meantime, this meeting is over. I walked out of the throne room, my mind seemed to be far away, ever since I fell with her, everything in me misses her body. I walked through the hallway lost in thoughts then two slaves walked up to me and then bowed their heads. " My Lord! " I snapped out of my thoughts and then spun towards them. For a moment I thought
