Chapter 24: Something Felt OffRameric's POV:I casually walked down the corridor on my way to the Great Hall, and could not help as I kept thinking about her, my mate, all alone in my Chambers. I did wish I could stay in there with her while she rested. However, as Alpha, it was pertinent I attend all pack meals while I am here and not away on other errands. It was a grand thing to be at the head of one's pack, showing pride and protection over everyone who was within your pack. I was thankful for the delta's and the omega's hunting party who managed to capture the fresh prey in order to feed us at the different roasts we had daily. I was pleased to be placed in such a position, and for as long as I have been. It was a lonely position, but one that I would show pride in no matter who was at my side.Soon, it was not all that much longer before I finally managed to reach the entrance of the Great Hall. When I did, conversation ceased to a certain extent as they watched me walk
Chapter 25: Rager Is Coming!Rameric's POV:I was sitting there, stunned as to the words this menial had brought to my attention just now. Why was she hesitating to tell me the words she wanted to bring to my attention? What was so important that it could not wait till after the midday roast? "And then what?!" I asked in a low yet threatening tone of voice as I grabbed her arm, making sure she would not back up from me due to my tone. "What did you see?""Well, Sir Alpha Caine," she said as she continued with her voice still shaking. "As I approached the doors to your chambers, the Warrior guards who were in position there had entered your room. When I got closer, one of them came to close the door while the other one was carrying a young woman on his shoulder further into the room."What was she saying right now?! I could not help it as I sat back in my seat, still holding tightly onto the arm of the menial that was now standing directly beside me. I needed to tread lightly
Chapter 26: I'm Not Trespassing!Alasia's POV:I was starting to fear for my life right now. This morning, I was sold by my stepfather, now this? I knew my life did not have much meaning as I was now a slave and as such, they could be treated however by the one who viewed themselves over the slave. Well, these two men did not own me, Alpha Caine owned me, whoever he is. Where was Alpha Caine anyway, oh wait, he is devouring something freshly prepared and I am here, about to fight for my life? What did the title, Alpha Caine, mean anyway? I had so many questions that did not make any sense, compared to what I was taught growing up with just my mother and my brother, all before my step-father came along. However, there was one thing I did know, and that was I belonged to him. I belonged to the one and only Alpha Caine and these two men were making a big mistake. So, why would he leave me here alone like this, without the ability to defend myself? Or someone who knew I was her
Chapter 27: Tame The BeastRameric's POVI watched as Rager snarled at the two men who had positioned themselves over our mate, lying there helpless on the floor. When Rager met her eyes, her eyes were filled with fear, which only fueled his anger. I tried to get him to let me take over, but it was no use. Rager was going to do what he did best, tend to those who certainly had it coming. He kept snarling, drooling, savoring the moment as he slowly walked closer to these two, so frightened they did not move. That was when he saw one of them, the one further away from us, with his hand up the bottom of her garment. I had no doubt what Zakari was after now. He was going to try to take advantage of our mate in my absence. Rager could feel my frustration. This only seemed to make him angrier. He snapped with a bark at these two as they slowly tried to stand and move away from her. She was so fearful that she did not know where to move to. I knew she needed rest but this was no
Chapter 28: Tend To BusinessRameric's POV:This was not the kind of day I thought it was going to be. It was just after the midday roast and these different kinds of issues were already turning up in the matters that dealt with my newly found mate. Despite the fact that she was a weak and insignificant human, there were still issues that I am having to deal with none the less. Well, I needed to get a handle on this situation before things really got out of hand. Rager already burst into my Chambers on account that we heard muffled cries coming from inside. Now the fact, that Rager already took a hand from one of my own pack members on account of her, only to leave another one needing punishment for his hand in this same situation. I needed to figure out what to do before I went totally off the wind here. Rager turned back to look at Galien still standing there in silence by Darik and Zakari and tilted his head to the side. Galien took that as a sign that he needed to take th
Chapter 29: Bad Sleep DreamAlasia's POV: As I lay there, on the edge of this soft material covering this larger pallet, it was like I had the feeling I was somehow in a bad sleep dream again. This was honestly the worst one so far if I had to say anything about it, and it all started after my stepfather sold me as a slave. I still do not understand how he could have done such a thing to me. I really thought I meant more to him than that. Or, did any of that really happen to me? No wait, I do remember him selling me first thing this morning, otherwise I would not have seen my little brother in such a state in the back of the wagon cart with tears filling his little eyes. I knew my stepfather sold me, as after I was in that pen trying to help another young girl who was crying openly. I even remember pushing her out of the way before she was struck by that bigger man. Where was I exactly if all these men were larger than I thought they should be? There was only one explanatio
Chapter 30: He's Leaving Again!Alasia's POV:Where is he going this time? Is he really leaving me in here again? I need to go relieve myself and he is not wanting me to leave the room?! What am I going to do? At that moment, I stood up as I watched him turn away from me and walk toward the door of the room. He did not even bother to turn around to look at me before he walked out with a bit of a huff tone in his walk. Was he upset at what I told him? I was just telling him what I told those other two men who came into the room earlier while he was gone. Was I not supposed to say anything?!After he was no longer in view, I watched for a few more moments as I wanted to know if he was going to come back or if anyone else was going to try to come into the room. When I did not see anyone or hear anything else, I started to look around the room. The last thing I wanted to do was to risk leaving this room as I did not want to have to repeat that horrifying experience. I was tryin
Chapter 31: On My Way...Rameric's POV:I can not believe I heard those words. Did that really happen, that she told them she belonged to me and they did not believe her!? They even laughed at her?! The more she spoke, the more angered I got to the point that I had to leave my Chambers. I could not help the growl that was coming from my throat. I was not going to say anything to her about her words. I just stood up, turning to face her. I could see the pain that those two men caused flashing across her eyes, as she was forced to relive that instance as she told me what happened while I was gone. I stood there in shock before I spoke up to her. I knew what I needed to do. First, I needed to have her stay here. I would send someone to help her take care of her current needs, but I did not want her to leave my Chambers alone, no matter the cost. "Stay here!" I said in a gruff tone as I was still angered by her words. "I will be back. I will send someone to take you to wher
