The Alpha's Prey CHAPTER 36
Laura's POV Ella looks taken aback by my sudden outburst. She staggers backwards and scoffs at me and even before I can apologize, she beats me to it. "Sorry for sticking my nose in what is clearly none of my business." She mumbles."Ella...." I start but she interrupts me with a loud cough. "Excuse me Laura, I have training to get to. Good luck with yours." Ella does not wait for my reply, she turns to the door and slowly walks out of my room ignoring me and yelling her name several times. Damn, if she is pissed then will Brandon be willing to train me? After all, I did get his sister pissed.Anyway, the day passes by so fast and I do my best to ignore Brandon and pretend like we are not on good terms at all. I think I must have acted really well because there was this time today when I stumbled upon a few maids gossiping about me and Brandon, they were talking about how we did not spend any time with each other.It is dawn and I have been able to sneak my way into the training aren
The Alpha's Prey CHAPTER 37
Laura's POV "Or what Laura? What are you going to do to me? Send the guards my way or report me to your husband?" Ella spits out through gritted teeth. She curls her fist as if she is about to deliver a punch to my face. Ella takes a step closer to me. I gulp a lump down my throat and wonder what is going on. Is Ella my maid about to punch me in the face and is Brandon about to watch his own sister do that to me?"Just kidding." Ella suddenly bursts into laughter. She clutches her stomach tight and laughs at me. I sneak a glance at Brandon expecting an explanation for all of this because things are starting to become crazy and it is beginning to annoy the living shit out of me. Are they even taking me seriously at all? Do they plan to train me at all or not? I need to at least know where I belong so I know what next step needs to be taken."Comic relief," Brandon mumbles raising his hand at me in mock surrender."I am just trying to reduce the tension before Brandon starts teaching y
The Alpha's Prey CHAPTER 1
Laura's POVI release a heavy sigh for the umpteenth time and rub my temples in frustration. I pace my room with my eyes roaming space, hoping I will not forget anything at all. My parents are having us move from town for an uncountable amount of time. I have never had a stable life ever since I was born. I can always remember us moving from one place to another for some reason that remained unknown to me up until now that I am eighteen years of age. They should be able to tell me what they think and their plans for me, but no, they would rather just keep me in the darkness where they assumed I belonged.I remember that this is the reason why I never had friends, and I will most likely never have friends. It is because my parents always make us move when I finally get attached to someone.They feel it is nothing for them, but it is a huge deal for me that I have to live up to for the rest of my life. Sometimes, I try to understand them and wonder if it is for my good, but then I real
The Alpha's Prey CHAPTER 2
Laura's POVJust like that, it has been five years since I got trapped in this hellhole. Five years since my parents abandoned me in this place for their selfish desires.I cower in the corner of my cell, the cold stone walls closing in on me like a vice. One would have thought that I would have lost count of the days since Victor, the ruthless Alpha, took me captive. The darkness is suffocating, the silence is deafening, and the environment is sickening.I just count my days, and I number them, hopefully waiting for the day my prince in shining armour will come for me and rescue me from the captivity of Alpha Victor.I am a prisoner and this room is my cell, regardless of the fancy decor, the queen-sized bed, the flat-screen television, the wardrobe with fancy clothes in it, and the glass doors that lead to the balcony. Regardless of the fresh air that comes from the balcony, I still feel locked up, and I feel suffocated. I am a pawn in Alpha Victor's game of power and control. My
The Alpha's Prey CHAPTER 3
Laura's POVI stare at myself through the large mirror in front of me, I have a look of disdain on my face as I watch one of the maids apply makeup carefully on my face while the other maid helps me braid my hair into a ponytail and fix decorative hair clips on it.Ever since I got locked up here, I can not help but always look at myself with disdain and disappointment. I have grown to hate myself for being this weak and powerless. I can't look at myself for two minutes straight without wanting to smash the mirror against the wall. I hate myself and my reflection. Most importantly, I hate the reality that I will be stuck here for eternity.The maids finished by helping me dress up like a doll. They all step backwards and allow me to gaze at myself, but I do the opposite of that by just dismissing them off.I rose to my feet and cleared my throat. Just play this game, Laura, and play it right to avoid any more trouble from Alpha Victor. Whenever I stand up for myself, it just feels li
The Alpha's Prey CHAPTER 4
Laura's POV"Marriage? I did not have such a type of deal with you, Victor. You and I never talked about marriage?" I said to him, opening the door to the room I was staying in, slamming it right in his face.How dare he? Marriage? Talk about marriage in front of his siblings when we both never even talked about marriage."It is Alpha Victor to you, and do not dare to speak to me in that tone ever in your life, Laura!" Alpha Victor yells at me, pushing away all the makeup equipment on the vanity and smashing the mirror against the wall in anger. I flinch at the shattering sound of glass, and a piece of glass from the mirror drops in front of me, almost piercing my foot."I will never marry you legally, Victor! Never in my life! Is it not already enough that you have me as your captive!" I yelled back at him, running a hand through my brown hair, flinging away the hair decor on my hair."Five years, Laura! I waited five funky years for you to grow up, yet you are still stuck in that de
The Alpha's Prey CHAPTER 5
Laura's POVI gulp a lump down my throat and the hairs on my skin rise as I turn around to gaze at no one other than Alpha Victor himself. What is he doing here? Did he know about my escape plan? There is no possible way he could have known, I never even made it obvious at all.I look down at the window and cast a glance at Alpha Victor, he just arches his left brow at me waiting for me to make a decision. Do I jump down and probably sprain my ankle or do I give up and accept my fate as it is? Do I accept my fate as the future wife to Alpha Victor? Is that a better option than being stuck in the hospital with a few broken bones? Even if I managed to jump down, I would injure myself which means I would probably be unable to escape and that only means one thing. I go to the hospital and spend some weeks there trying to survive, right after that, I return to my place as Victor's wife.It does not change anything to be very honest, it only postpones the wedding and that does not make me f
The Alpha's Prey CHAPTER 6
Laura's POV Today is the worst day of my life, for other people, they would see today as the best day of their lives, a day to never forget. That is what I am supposed to see today as but it is quite the opposite for me, not exactly since today is a day I will never forget throughout my years of living on earth, not for a good thing but for a really horrible reason. The trauma I have faced is not something I think I can ever recover from. I thought the most horrible day of my life would be the day I lose any of my loved ones but now that I think about it, I do not have any loved ones. My dad and mum that I actually thought I could tag as family betrayed me five years ago. Now I have to bear the consequences of their actions every day of my life. Sometimes, I curse them and wish that they never find peace and on some other days, I just pity them and wish them good luck in whatever they have in mind to do. I on the other hand am stuck with this fate. It is bound to happen."Ma'am, you

The Alpha's Prey CHAPTER 35
Laura's POV I sigh in disappointment but at the same time, I know that Richard is at least telling the truth. I know that rule was from Alpha Victor and I know the reason behind thfrustratedt is because he does not want me to exploit my rare abilities. What a shame to him though because with enough training from Brandon, in no time I would be able to fight and escape out of this prison cell.I turn to look at Richard who now has an impatient look on his face. He taps his leg against the floor and mumbles something to himself. "Richard, I think you should leave now. You and I have nothing to discuss again." I say walking towards my bed and throwing myself on it. I shut my eyes close for a brief moment and when I open them, I still see Richard standing there with a small frown on his face."What are you still doing here?" I snap at him with an equal frown on my face. Why is he exhausting the little strength in me that I plan to keep for training with Brandon? Richard is a real pain in
The Alpha's Prey CHAPTER 34
Laura's POV Well, It seems I might have to tell Richard the truth. At least it is better than being accused of cheating with Brandon. Richard is crazy and he could go as far as telling Alpha Victor that I have been sleeping with Brandon. I know the extent of how far Richard can go. Plus he does not exactly like me so that is an even bigger motive to get rid of me so easily."What big favour Laura? To help you get out of the pack house? If that is the favour then it is a pretty stupid one." Richard says shaking his head at me in disdain. I shake my head in disagreement. I clear my throat and lean closer to Richard "I asked him to train me since you refused to let me partake in the general training." I say.Richard eyes me suspiciously. He does not seem to buy that lie but the truth is that it is not a lie. That is exactly what I asked Brandon so he just has to accept the truth how it is and move on. "I am serious. I badly want to train too so I could not think of anyone else I could
The Alpha's Prey CHAPTER 33
Laura's POV I stare at Richard and fight the urge to laugh at his jumpsuit. I raise a brow at him and gesture him to speak up but he just stares at me with an equally raised brow. Since he will not do the talking then I will."You really need to learn how to knock, Or better still just do not come near my room if you are not willing to learn basic manners!" I snap at him with a scowl on my face. Richard just scoffs in response. He takes a few steps backwards and furrows his brows at me. "Manners? Are we talking about manners right now Laura?" Richard yells at me. How dare he? As a matter of fact, in my room? Who gave him such effrontery?"Yes Manners. I am talking about manners which you clearly lack because if you did not then you would have knocked like a normal gentleman should do when standing in front of a lady's door!" I yell back at him."You are one to talk too much Laura, are you not the same one who called me a lapdog? Huh? You really want to keep talking about manners?" Ri
The Alpha's Prey CHAPTER 32
Laura's POV I jerk off my bed and stare at Brandon with my eyes wide open. Is this a dream? This had got to be a dream because I remember Brandon telling me that he needed time, he said he needed time to think about things so what in the world is he doing in my room? Before I get too excited, I use the back of my palm to rub my face and I pinch myself hard in the arm. Wake up, Laura!"This is not a dream. I mean it, I am ready to train you. I want to." Brandon says with a small smile playing on his lips. Wow, so this is reality! For once, I was getting what I wanted."Really? Why? What changed? I thought you said you needed time." I say with a big smile. I clench my fist tight and fight the urge not to scream out loud in excitement."Well, do you still think I need time because I could turn around and go back to think about my response," Brandon says with a small shrug."No!" I say immediately. Brandon chokes out a small laugh and shakes his head at me. "You are so silly Laura but yo
The Alpha's Prey CHAPTER 31
Laura's POV "If I heard you very correctly, you want me to teach you? I mean train you?" Brandon asks with a surprised look on his face. He raises a brow at me and his lips are curled into a small frown. I nod my head at him with a big smile playing on my lips."Yes!" I say excitedly. I should not be so excited though, after all, he has not even agreed to train me yet so why am I getting myself so worked up?"Is that not against Alpha Victor's orders then? I mean I could get into trouble for it right?" Brandon asks rubbing the back of his neck with his hand. I release a heavy sigh and nod my head in agreement, of course, I forgot to mention the consequences to him."Well, technically that is if we get caught and I doubt we will. I will make sure we are very careful about it." I say giving Brandon a reassuring smile and silently hoping in my heart that he agrees to it. I can not think of anyone else but him. If he does refuse to train me then I am screwed!"Still Laura, everyone aroun
The Alpha's Prey CHAPTER 30
Laura's POV Richard has just given me a very good idea. I mean I never actually thought of meeting a guard privately and asking them to train me. I have a feeling that the real reason Richard did not want me to train with the others or should I say, not to train at all is because it has something to do with my special abilities. Maybe somehow, the more I train, the stronger I become. A smirk settles on my lips as I think of the one person I can reach out to, the one person who can help me train without any conditions. Brandon. I and Brandon can train in secret and I am very sure that Brandon would not tell Richard anything. Wait, am I trusting Brandon too much? I should be careful but at the same time, I do not exactly have much of a choice. If training is going to help me become stronger then I need to do just that. I walk out of the chamber hall and make my way to my room. I freeze in my steps when I see Ella engrossed in a conversation with one of the maids."Ella? Can I have a w
The Alpha's Prey CHAPTER 29
Laura's POV "Wait, why? What do you mean Alpha Victor has ordered me not to train with everyone else? I was already looking forward to it." My last sentence comes out as a mere whisper but I am sure Richard was able to grab it since he is standing close to me."I mean exactly what you think I mean Laura. It is straight orders from Alpha Victor. What do you expect me to do or would you like to have a conversation with him about it? I can hand you the phone if you like." Richard snaps at me. I roll my eyes at him and scoff in disbelief."Seriously though. Can I at least get special training or something?" I mumble. Richard looks at me with a rather surprised look on his face. He looks taken aback by my sudden request and I can not help but wonder why."What? Why do you suddenly look so surprised?" I ask. Richard shakes his head at me in disdain and says "Wait, you think you deserve special training just because somehow you have some special abilities?" "Well, that is not what I meant
