Tiana's POV
We sat across from each other on the fifty-two seat dining, only the clinking sounds of his fork against the plates could be heard every now and then. I stared at the food in front of me, I wasn't sure I had ever eaten something this luxurious but that wasn't why I refused to eat. I didn't trust him one bit besides, I was yet to see dad.
“ I've noticed,” he placed his fork and knife down and raised his head to look at me. He literally counted his words as he spoke. “ You haven't eaten a single thing on your plate,” he completed.
“ Are you not hungry from your journey and endless tantrums?” He added with a hint of irritation.
“ W-where’s my dad? You told me you would let me see him,” I gulped.
“ Impatient, I see,” he grabbed his goblet and sipped from it. Every moment in his presence made me feel like my life was on the line. “ I did tell you but I don't remember telling you when I would,” he smirked, twirling the wine in his goblet.
“ You promised me that if I came downstairs for dinner, you would answer all my questions!” I slammed my hand against the table. He glared at me and I knew I had crossed the line. Two guards approached me and sat me down forcefully, I shivered.
“ Miss Tiana, I'd advise that you control your emotions in the presence of Alpha Xander,” his butler warned. He was an Alpha?
“ How do you know my...,”
“ Why wouldn't I know you? Count yourself lucky that you're mine, not many people would have survived after raising their voice at me,” he stared dreamily into his goblet yet saying horrid things. He was crazy.
“ What do you mean that I'm yours?” I shook my head in confusing.
“ Why am I stuck with the job of explaining things to her?” He smacked his face his hand in frustration. “ Bring in Mr. Oliver,” he ordered. I turned my head towards the direction of the approaching footsteps as I anticipated to see dad, I hoped he was alright.
“ Dad?” Tears trickled down my cheeks the moment I saw him, I got up from my chair and ran towards him. I hugged him tight allowing myself to cry the way I wanted - I was confused and scared but most of all, I had missed him. I was worried that something terrible happened to him.
“ Dad, are you alright?” I let go of him and scanned his face. “ Dad, what's going on here? I'm scared and I want to go home. I don't wanna stay here anymore,” I begged him. Maybe he could convince Alpha Xander to let us go somehow.
“ Tiana, behave yourself,” he held me by my shoulders and put a distance between us, shaking me a bit.
“ What do you mean? Aren't you seeing him?” I pointed at Alpha Xander. “ I don't want to stay here even if this is the place you were taking me to. He's intimidating,” I pleaded.
“ I'm sorry, Your Majesty. She's not really aware of the situation and she's a bit too naive,” dad got on his knees for Alpha Xander.
“ She lacks the basic manners but I'd pardon that because she's pretty and young,” he responded without looking at dad for more than three seconds.
“ Dad? What are you doing?” I questioned his sudden show of respect.
“ Go and have your seat,” he instructed getting to his feet.
“ But...,”
“ Sit down!” He raised his voice on me and I flinched. I quickly scurried away back to my seat.
“ So go ahead and tell her the truth, you don't expect me to do that,” Alpha Xander said.
“ Of course, Your Majesty,” dad absolutely sucked up to this guy.
“ Dad, do you know him? What exactly is going on?” I stared into dad's eyes.
“ Tiana, you're Alpha Xander’s special breeder,” he revealed.
“ I don't get what you mean. You're joking right?” I looked at him in utter disbelief hoping he would confirm to me that he had been teasing me.
“ Do I look like I'm smiling here?” he had a frown on.
“ That's not even possible. I'm not his property, I don't even know him!” I couldn't help but raise my voice. Did he think this was a joke?
“ You weren't my property till I bought you, of course. And just so you know, it's been a while since you were mine,” Alpha Xander spoke up.
“ What does he mean by that?” I looked at dad, my eyes filled with disbelief and mixed emotions.
“ I sold you to him, okay?” He avoided my eyes. “ Why do you ask a million questions when you know the answer already” He sighed.
“ N-no way,” I quivered as tears streamed down my cheeks. Was dad really not who I thought he was?
“ Thanks to you, I and your mother can live in luxury,” he said not bothered about what would happen to you.
“ I can't believe how dirty and low you could get,” I clutched my chest in pain. “ I had actually treated you like my own father,” my face was drenched in my tears.
“ It's not my fault that you trusted me,” he shrugged.
“ You scumb...,” I couldn't even finish my sentence before he slapped me hard across the face. “ All these years, at least ever since your dad died, I've been the one taking care of you. This is the least you can do in gratitude,” he squeezed my jaw and mouth tight. Pain surged through my body - it hurt.
“ Mr. Oliver, I'm not sure you should be doing that here. I mean, disciplining what's mine,” Alpha Xander spoke in clear words. His voice always sounding threatening.
“ My apologies, Your Majesty. I just needed to get her to listen, she has always been a stubborn girl that's why she hindered my plans for years. I would have brought her ever since you bargained if not that she kept fooling around with that Lewis of a boy,” dad spat. Had he already sold me before now? How long had I been someone else's property?
“ I don't care if she's stubborn, as long as she's mine, I'm the only one who determines who can lay a finger on her or not,” was he defending me?
“ I won't make this mistake again,” Oliver apologized. I clenched my gown in my hands as I quietly sobbed.
“ Butler Kim,” he signalled. Butler Kim handed Oliver two silver briefcases of money. He didn't hesitate to open them up and drool over them, he really had sold me.
“ Escort Mr. Oliver out,” he instructed and Butler Kim led the way. It became quiet once more. “ You haven't eaten anything yet. I know it must be hard for you to digest what you just heard but you'll get used to reality eventually,” and there I was thinking he would at least offer a word or two of comfort.
“ I'm sorry, Your Highness but I would like to head up and rest,” I stood up from my seat. “ I'm feeling a bit tired,” I added. I wasn't going to wait till he approved, I began walking away from the dining room and I knew he watched with somewhat amusement.
As I walked away, I didn't know when my consciousness fazed out and I fell to the floor knocked out cold.

I opened my eyes to see the dark cozy room I was in, it wasn't dark due to lack of light. It really was night and I could tell by looking out the window. Cool breeze rushed in and blew against my face, I liked his sort of weather. My mind wandered back to what had happened earlier, dad had sold me and I began to wonder if mother was aware of this.
“ What are you thinking of when I'm here?” Alpha Xander’s familiar voice came from somewhere in the dark room.
“ W-what are you doing here?” He really took me by surprise.
“ What a question,” he scoffed as he took his shirt off. What was he attempting to do? “ This is my room.”
“ You could have taken me to another room when I fainted,” I mumbled. He didn't necessarily have to bring me to his room.
“ It's my choice not yours to make,” he dropped his goblet on the dressing table. “ I was thinking I'd leave you till tomorrow night but thinking of how you have been fooling around with Lewis when you were mine is annoying enough. But don't you think this mood and weather is perfect for making babies?” He inhaled, smirking.
He had already crawled unto the bed and up my body, only after he had tossed the bed sheets that covered me did I notice I was in lingerie. My heart beat faster as his breath came in contact with my face.
“ I should give you an actual taste of passion, not what your teenage ex used to give you,” he said in the most seductive voice and I could feel my nipples tighten but on the other hand, Lewis wasn't a teenager.
“ I-I’m not sure...,” he hushed me with his index finger, sweat beads forming under my pits. This man was no different from an Eros.
“ I'll be gentle, I promise,” he licked my ears and the burning sensation I felt within me was a totally new experience. He brushed his lips against my temple, before proceeding to my nose and then my lips.
Our lips touched. His mouth was warm and soft, my hands wrapped around his neck nearly like a reflex action. Now I understood why kissing was described as a melting sensation because every inch of me melted at his slightest touch. Lewis had never made me feel this way before. With his head tilted, he moves from soft and sweet to passionate and smooth, parting my lips with mine and sucking my breath at every turn.
He groaned low in my throat as I moaned softly, next thing I knew our clothes lay haphazardly on the floor and I knew tonight would be filled with lots of moaning pleasures.
Tiana's POVI sat down in the gazebo of the palace which stood marvelously erect in the garden, wrapped in creepers and other ornamental plants. It was pretty but that was far from the reason I was here in the first place.“ Lady Tiana, you need to calm down a bit,” the maid in charge of me fanned me as I sipped from my tea.“ How am I supposed to calm down when Elena is in the picture? I mean, have you seen the way she behaves around him?” I fumed. I hated everything about Elena, she always acted so touchy with Alpha Xander.“ Don't tell me you have a thing for Alpha Xander now,” she gave me a knowing smile and thinking about her question, my face turned red. I honestly wasn't sure what I was feeling for him.“ I don't, where did you get that idea from?” I muffled my voice trying to clarify her misunderstanding but she wouldn't have it. My heart fluttered just thinking about Alpha Xander, I knew I had a mate bond with him even though I've only been here for a few months.“ Yes, yes.

Tiana’s POVMy moans grew louder and louder as Lewis kneaded my breasts, his lips straddled on of the nipples and the other hand groping the other. I could never get enough of his touch. Spreading my legs apart, he passed his fingers through the gooey curtains leading to my clam. Once his fingers went inside, he let them work their enthralling magic in me.I bellowed as his fingers worked their way deeper - you could hear the squishy sound it made from the attempt to maneuver inside me.“ The Ball is coming up soon, you know right?” I managed to say in a breathy voice while trying my best not to get lost in our lust.“ If I didn't know, who would?” He asked rhetorically while focusing on his business - our business really. He was right, he was going to be made Alpha during the Ball so if anyone would know, it would be him.“ I'm excited for the Ball more than anyone else, we can finally be officially together,” I fantasized. We were already together and I doubt there was anyone in the
Tiana's POVI lay down in my room sobbing and broken hearted. It had been nearly a month since Lewis announced Melissa as his mate and Luna. I couldn't wrap my mind around what had happened even after a month.“ Why?!!!” I screamed throwing my pillow at the door in a feat of anger. I hated everything and the slightest thing irritated me. Whenever I went out, the people around would look at me in pity - everyone pitied me and I hated it.Melissa was probably living her dream life as it stands, their wedding was at the corner and all I could do was cry myself to sleep every night. I was tired of living like this. I heard a knock on my door.“ Come in,” I said lazily from under the pillow.“ Melissa, it's me,” I heard Oliver's voice. I kept quiet. “ I know you're sad and it's expected, heart break hurts but you can't keep living like this when both Alpha Lewis and Melissa are living their lives to their fullest,” he sat beside me on my bed.“ I want to move on but it's so hard,” I cried
