Chapter 04

Victoria Stephen

I breathed hard as I stopped from trying my best to loosen the ties in my hands. Fucking Alpha King. I don’t know if it’s his name or he’s only messing with me but nevertheless, whoever he is or whoever they are, I will not forgive them for doing this to me.

My lips is bleeding because I’ve been biting on it to ease the pain on my wrist. Somewhat the ties became too tight when I struggle to get out of it. The man with a dark green amber eyes left me all alone in this bed, leaving me no choice but to lay down and think about a way to escape.

Alpha Vladimir thought me one thing. That life is a bloody war and only those who believes even in a faint hope is the one who will survive. I looked around. I looked everywhere but it seems like I cannot find any single faint hope for me in this room.

The room is occupied with books, some ancient relics like blade which reminds me about the man with a blade earlier. The three of them are scary as hell, I can feel it that all of them are alpha. All of them screams power and dominance but there is something with the man holding a blade. He is dangerous in just one glance. The one they called Alpha Riley is dangerous but he loves to tease around. While that man….that man who kidnapped me is more dangerous for my eyes. He doesn’t have any emotion at all. Not a single drop of anger or happiness are shown in his eyes. How can he grins while showing no emotion in his eyes? I’ve never met a man like that.

I shut my eyes and remember Alpha Vladimir. I love him. I know that he cares for me too. I imagine about his angry face as he commanded every single warrior that he has to search for me.

Commanded. One thing I love about him is his commanding power. His power dominance which makes some lowly wolves trembles out of fear. I was there when he was starting his passion about leading, about expanding and it build my love for him. My understanding because even if there are times that I’ve been put into a pedestal of his priorities, I know that there is no other woman. There is just his passion about leading. That’s why I cannot exactly hate him.

“ You know Alpha King is good about bondage, the ropes will not hurt you if you just don’t move.”

I heard a cold stern voice said. My body trembles at his voice. But I know that it wasn’t him.

“ I’m actually trying my luck to escape,” I sarcastically said as I roll my eyes out of losing my hope to get out of this shithole.

This is worse. Being here is nothing but a worse fate.

“ I’m Alpha Riley,” the man introduced himself as he appeared infront of me. It gave me time to appreciate his facial features. A man with a bow-like lips, thick lips, pointed nose, chiseled jaw and dark brooded eyes.

Serious and hard facial features which doesn’t compliment that small grin as he twitched his lips to each side.

“ I don’t care,” I muttered which is absolutely a mistake because I felt him strangling my neck. I choke with his large hands wrapped around my neck.

His eyes didn’t show any emotion as he strangle me. My toes curled with the satin cover as I fight for my breath to survive.

After a while, he loosens his grip making me catch for my breath. My eyes watered as I cough while he only laughs for my suffering.

He looks playful. Too playful that it insults me. It made me feel like he only sees my life as an entertainment.

“Don’t push my patience. Alpha King may not be able to kill you today but he will, eventually. That man is nothing but a personification of darkness. You thought that you’re lucky that he spares your life? No, you’re not. He simply sees a greater, more vicious plan to end your life. Because that is what he is,” he muttered each word, trying to curve a fear inside of my head. And he actually did.

His words scared the fucking shit of me. It makes me hitched my breathing as his cold fingers touch the sides of my jaw.

“You’re gorgeous. I just don’t understand why someone like you will fall for Alpha Vladimir.  You know what, I’ll make you a deal.” He shifted on the bed and look at my body. Perverted look on my body that it makes me want to punch him if I wasn’t only bounded.

He smirked. “I’ll help to lengthen your life if you’ll agree to let me taste you,” he whispered right beneath my ears making me almost pissed to myself.

His touch landed on top of my abdomen, tracing the sides of my waist before it goes deeper and deeper making my heart pound for more and more.

“Alpha Riley,” I heard a firm voice echo along the room and for the first time, I felt safe when I heard his dangerous voice.

I don’t know why but a small taunting smirk appeared to Alpha Riley’s face. Amusement is visible on his eyes as we heard how Alpha King strode from the door to our direction.

“ I told you not to touch her,” he roared while pushing Alpha Riley away from the bed. Away from me. His strong hands pinned him into the wall but Alpha Riley found this rather entertaining than dangerous.

He chuckles as he looks over my direction and to Alpha King but that didn’t matter to me. What matters for me is myself as a tear escaped my eyes because of too much fear. My hands are trembling because I’ve been holding the fear inside of me.

“I didn’t thought that you meant that literally,” Alpha Riley chuckles as he pushed Alpha King away from him, fixing his clothes while gazing up to my direction.

Alpha King’s body is tense. Like it was in the verge of punching him. “Don’t fucking touch her,” he howls as the anger and darkness inside of him invade the whole place.

Alpha Riley chuckles as his lips twitch into a lopsided grin. “I won’t…for now,” he said grazing his tongue to his teeth before walking away.

I looked at Alpha King and as his dark gaze landed on mine. I was ready to thank him for what he did but before I can utter any words, he strode out of the door without saying anything.
