Lance's POV.My jaw tightens and I barely register the fact that Allyssa is bowing to me, the image of that stranger's hand dangling dangerously close to her breasts is seared into my mind and I can't shake it off.I do not want to say that I'm jealous, but I am, honestly, I am very pissed that I could strangle someone with my bare hands.How dare he, scratch that, how could she walk around flaunting him like that, it is strictly forbidden for slaves to behave in such a dishonorable manner and I have half the mind to punish her right here, but I hold myself back. I am so angry, the anger is so overwhelming that I want to hit something, I am confused as to why I'm feeling this way, it's so confusing and conflicting with the hatred I have for her. The man straightens and looks around, finding that Allyssa had slipped out of his grip, I squint and manage to glare at him at the same time, something about this man does not feel right.Like there's some dark cloud hanging over his head, h
Allyssa's POV.After regaining my breath, the Head slave walks up to me, I bow to her but she does not acknowledge my greeting.Instead she walks to me menacingly looking very pleased with the stiffness of my posture, as though that is the trophy she received for punishing me.Who knows maybe the Alpha even congratulated and gave her a gold medal for wreaking havoc on my body, I clenched my jaw, to prevent tears from falling.I should be happy, at least I escaped from that strange weirdo, at least that counts for something, maybe my lunch is not just pure rotten luck. "If you are done with the garden, then move to the training area immediately, it needs cleaning and the equipments need their maintenance,get moving, there is no need for you too stand here, looking like a fish out of water" She sneers and I sigh inwardly, but keep a neutral expression on my face."Yes ma'am" I mutter dryly, turning towards the door and heading out, when I look over my shoulder, she is striding back to
Lance's POV.Watching Allyssa speed walk out of the room, her knees wobbling and hands injured tugs at my heart strings and I look towards the door she just exited from.Instead of feeling satisfied about what I had done to her, I feel… hurt, like I have made a big mistake, as if I'm being swallowed by the gulf of distance between us, how I went from feeling hatred for her, to feeling hurt when I make her life miserable.I need to talk to her, that much is clear, firstly because I need to ask her who the hell that stranger was, and why he was holding her so intimately, it has been eating at me since I saw them earlier. I want to know where he disappeared to, and how he knows how to find his way around the pack so well, even if he is a stranger. Also, I need to find out if she is okay. After scrubbing the floor till her fingers bleed, I feel very shitty and I need to know if she is okay. "I will talk to you later, I have something to do" I say to Belinda, just to be polite, of course
Allyssa's POVI walk briskly, ignoring the clawing in my chest about the Alpha's attitude towards me, in the direction of the Slave quarters.Funny how a place as ominous as the slave quarters has become a comfort zone for me, the only one I have.Belinda and the Alpha keep devising ways to make my life harder with each passing day and I don't know if I will be able to hold out. I hate the fact that he saw me at my weakest point, something I promised myself would never happen. What was he feeling when he watched me wipe my face and immediately knew that I was crying, triumph? Satisfaction? Pity?! The thought makes me shiver,the Alpha pitying me has to be the worst of all the possible emotions he could have for me.I don't want his pity, because I know it's not real, he hates me and that's that, I am not going to delude myself into thinking that the Alpha has any other emotions for me apart from hatred and revulsion, he's probably keeping this mate bond between us so that he can to
Allyssa's Pov. "No!" I groaned immediately"No! No! No!" I whispered.The entrance to the slave quarters is locked, and that's when I notice the time, it's past curfew for the slaves and since it's dark, the pack members are probably in their beds.How could I have stayed out so long that I had completely missed curfew, I will be in so much trouble with the Head Slave, if I get out of this alive. Panic sets in, if I don't find a secure place to hide now, this man will surely catch me and who knows what he is going to do to me when he does.I swallow, catching a flash of movement behind me, I immediately start running, I need to figure out where to hide, I cannot be out in the open, and I cannot run towards the secret entrance into the slave quarters, that would be a very stupid thing to do, I definitely cannot lure him there.I have only one choice now, there is only one place I know that I can go where this freak will not follow me. The Alpha's Chambers.I turn a path and propel
Allyssa's POV.I don't know what to do with this request. I must not have passed out very long because it's still dark outside, but the slaves wake up very early to go about their duties, and I may be lucky and the door to the slave quarters will be open."I'm sorry Alpha, but I really need to go, I cannot stay" I say to him as respectfully as possible.He stares at me, probably shocked that I refused to stay with him in his room."I insist, you should stay here, you're barely standing, staying here is the best option" He says, and I hang on to every word.I am about to agree and weaken my resolve, when I remember the fact that I had decided to put myself first, by doing such actions as ignoring the Alpha and any other pack member that may prove to make my life difficult at any time, and staying in the Alpha's room, with the Alpha, goes against those rules.I will not let myself get confused or deviate from my path, I have made my decision and I am going to damn well stick by it, eve
Belinda's POV.Everything is working perfectly.I am delighted!I have a new plan, and coupled with the ongoing one, nothing could go wrong."I hope everything works out perfectly" My wolf squeals and I share the enthusiasm."Of course it will," I reply, everything will work out perfectly.I pull on the sheer lingerie I bought and throw on a flimsy overcoat.My plan is to have sex with the Alpha tonight and since I am in my cycle, I am going to definitely get pregnant once we have sex and the rest is history, the Alpha will have to take me as his Luna and all my dreams will be fulfilled.With that thought, I walk out of my room and head to the Alpha's bedroom. Knocking on the door, I check my manicured nails and I am glad to see that they are spotless.I knock on the door again,"What is it Belinda?" The Alpha asks gruffly, I smile."I came here to spend the night with you Alpha" I drew a line on his shirt with my long fingernail.He blanches, looking confused , "why?" He asked w
Allyssa's POV.I feel very scared at this point, I made a big mistake by letting Belinda notice me, I feel like Belinda is way more dangerous than she lets on and that makes me start rethinking my decisions. I don't want to get into any trouble, I do hope I am wrong about her, I am lying in bed, unable to sleep.I lie there, wide eyed until the light from outside starts to creep through the window and I know it's time for me to wake up and go about my duties.I go into the bathroom, turn on the faucet and wash quickly then wear the first fresh clothes my hands can grab and rush out of the room so that I don't miss breakfast.Breakfast is a dreary affair , my eyes seem to have sunken and are glazed over like a dead person's eyes and I look at my plate as if it might jump back from the table and attack me at any minute, even though the food in front of me is untouched.I end up eating very little and shoving the rest down a trash can, not that slaves have the luxury to waste food, I
