ALPHA ALEXANDER’s POV…I could see the disappointment in her eyes after I’d said that and she held on to the knob of the door as she was fighting hard not to cry in front of me.Seeing her like this, watching her almost break down before me, my heart clenched and this gave me all the more reason to push her away. As Alpha that I was, I couldn’t afford to be broken down by someone, not even if they were my mate.She chuckled as she stared at me. “It’s gotten that bad, huh?” She asked me, and I rolled my eyes as I clenched my fists, doing my best to keep my emotions bottled in.“Let’s be real, there was nothing between us. It was all just lust. You shivered under my touch, your body pressed against mine made me feel things, but that’s in the past now, let’s focus on what actually brought us together. I’m doing you a favor after all and the pup will be my pay back for the fifty million I spent on you when I bought you.” I told her, and she nodded as she turned away from me.From the way s
ALPHA ALEXANDER’s POV…I stared at her as she stepped back and I clenched my fists. What was going on with me? Why wasn’t I hurting her? Why hadn’t I pulled her by the hair, dragging her to the stream as I buried her face in it for at least half an hour while she gasped for breathe?Why didn’t I grab her, place her face into a drum of oil so she would know what he was like to insult me? Why wasn’t I tying her to a pole and have the guards beat her up?She sniffled as she wiped her tears, shaking her head as she looked into my eyes, so defiantly like she didn’t care who she was standing before. “I really do hope so, Alpha Alexander because the biggest curse on me would be if my pup was to ever take after you.” She told me, and I clenched my fists.“You do know you can be punished for whatever you’re saying, right? You do know that…” the words hadn’t even left my lips when she rushed to me, grabbing my collar as she looked me in the eyes, like she wasn’t scared of anything. “But you’r
ALPHA ALEXANDER’s POV…She gasped as she fell to the ground, the boxes landing on her. Seeing her like this, my heart clenched, but I couldn’t fall out of character. I had to be as strong as I could be. She started this, and I was going to be the one who called the shots here.“You don’t have all day for this, so come on, we need to get back to the mansion before midnight so don’t waste my time.” I told her, and she gasped as she held on to her back, getting up as she stared at all the boxes that had gotten scattered.Staring at her face, I realized that there was some blood on her forehead because of the fall. I wanted to move closer to her and tend to it, but then recalling that things like that would only make her think I couldn’t do without being soft to her, hence, causing her to be disrespectful, I withdrew myself.‘Come on, Alexander. Tend to her. You want to. Can you really bear to see our mate in danger? Tend to her already.’ Jason urged from within me, but I surpressed him.
AMELIA’s POV..He was no longer the man I thought he was. He had changed so much and I couldn’t believe it was possible for a person to change so much in such a short period of time. What suddenly came over him and why was he like this?As I crashed into the bed, closing my eyes as tears streamed down my cheeks, I couldn’t help but recall the horrible sight, the one of him sending the knife through that person and killing them.I gasped as I wiped my tears. How could I even start to have feelings for someone like him? How could I let the mate bond control me so much that I actually thought he was a different person? I sighed as I remained in my room.It all hurt, everything did and deep down, I wanted to believe there was a reason for what he did, but I didn’t see any. All I could see was a man who derived pleasure chopping people’s heads off and ending their lives.I had been in the room for sometime when I was informed that Alpha Alexander had called for everyone to be gathered in t
AMELIA’s POV…As I dragged myself to my room, Kevin stood in front of me and seeing him, I rushed to him as I hugged him, tightly, tears streaming down my cheeks as he hugged me.“What’s wrong? Why are you crying?” He asked me, and I shook my head as I kept soaking his shirt in my tears.“Why? Why is this happening to me?” I asked him, and he sighed as he wrapped his hands around me, taking me to the garden where we sat, like an older brother, him patting my back.“The Alpha said something to you, didn’t he?” He asked me, and I nodded as I buried my face in my hands.“I don’t even know if it’s his words that are hurting me this way or the fact that I know he’s not the same man I started to like.” I told him, and he sighed as he stared at the waterfall.He chuckled as he took his hands off my back. “You should really watch out for men like him. You shouldn’t get too attached. Amelia, I’d love to console you now. I’d like to tell you that everything will be fine, but how can I? How can
AMELIA’s POV…“We got the girl”“We got the girl”“Ah”“Let go of me”“What are you doing? Set me free!”Cries, wails, screams, the sounds of things been gnashed, the sound of wood coming against wood, gossips, and the smell of alcohol and cigarettes filled the whole place as I shook my head.My eyes had been jammed shut, I was very weak. I couldn’t feel any part of my body and everything around me just gave me a strange aura.I tried to recall where I was before I opened my eyes but it was of no use. My back ached and I let out a little sigh as I gulped. I shook my head as I tried to get off where I was, but just then, I felt something scratch my skin.Still feeling as weak as ever, I opened my eyes slowly to find myself in this very strange room, many girls tied to chairs in front of me and just then, my eyes flung open.I gasped as I looked down to my legs and that was when I realized that I had been tied up, too. I shook my head, trying to recall how I’d gotten here and that was w
AMELIA’s POV..“Pinuno?” One of the men called out to him and that was when I knew that he was the leader of their gang since “Pinuno” meant “leader”Pinuno chuckled as he walked over to me, grabbing my chin as he looked into my eyes, but having him look into my eyes, I felt nothing but disgust. “I want you, cupcake. You look like you’d be tasty. I mean, a woman who can get herself out of my bounds is bound to be tasty, isn’t she?” Following his words was a slap on the face from me.“How dare you?” I asked him, angrily, and turning to me, I could see the anger in his eyes.I looked down to his fists while he seethed in anger and I saw that they’d been balled into a punch. I clenched my fists, doing my best to hide the fear that was now building up in me from having seen this, when suddenly, I felt his hand driven into my stomach, and I gasped in pain as I fell back into the chair, having it fall to the ground as I rolled out of it, holding my stomach.He blew his first as he bent to m
AMELIA’s POV…I gasped as I felt a lot of water being poured over me and tears streamed down my cheeks as I screamed in pain, staring at myself.I looked at myself and realized that I had been beaten up badly.Looking forward, I saw Pinuno, without a shirt and he walked to me as he caressed my face even though I kept turning.“You’re finally awake, my darling.” He teased as he chuckled and I screamed in pain as he squeezed my hand, tears streaming down my cheeks as I did so but he didn’t care. He was just bent on causing me more pain. Nothing else mattered to him.“Let go of me, you pervert!” I screamed, but it didn’t seem to click with him as all he did was keep causing me pain and I gasped in pain.He clapped and doing so, the lights in the room came on. On the lights coming on, my jaw dropped in shock at the sight of the things in the room.I swallowed as even though my neck hurt badly, I turned, and seeing the things that were in the room, my heart dropped. “Wh..what is this?” I a
