All Chapters of The Alphas Prize: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

#Chapter12We reached the top of the stairs and went down the hallway to our right. Portraits were hung along the grey painted walls, a few chaise lounges, with small tables and lamps decorating the hallway. However, what had caught my eye was the massive, black door at the end of the hallway. Finally, we reached the broad wooden door, which was even taller up close. Calyx gripped the door handle, swung it open and led me inside the room.“This is Cain’s room and now, yours as well,” He said as he gestured around the room. I froze, thinking about what Calyx had just said to me. “Wait……Cain will be staying in here with me?” I asked obliviously, hoping I had heard him wrong. He chuckled. “Well, yea. It’s his room, and you are his mate.” He stated as if I had just asked the stupidest question. My wolf growled in my head as my nostrils flared, and I clenched my fists at my sides. “I’m not his mate.” I said through gritted teeth, “And, I won’t be sharing a room with him. I would lik

#Chapter14The bright morning light invaded the room, waking me from my deep slumber and that horrible nightmare. I lay there, thinking about the dream that I had encountered. I had never seen a face, just teeth, but why was I covered in blood? Who was attacking me? I reminded myself that it was just a dream and cleared my mind of it. I sat up and stretched. As I looked around the room, I realized that I was alone and the bed was empty; Cain must have left at some point. I breathed a sigh of relief, thankful I didn’t have to face him yet. I got up from the bed and went to the bathroom to do my morning business.After finishing up in the bathroom, I walked over to the bedroom door and pressed my ear against the cold wood, listening carefully for any voices on the other side. However, there was nothing; everything was silent. I tried to open the door, but it was locked, “What the fuck!” I banged on the door and hollered, but no one came. I truly am a fucking prisoner, I thought to my

#Chapter16I began pacing the room, feeling anxious and useless. Whenever something happened back home, I always assisted. My family and pack members were proud of me for the skills and abilities I brought to the pack; it made me feel included and appreciated. Time had been slowly passing since Cain brought me to the dungeon, no one came, and I didn’t hear anything outside the room. I walked to the balcony doors again, gazing around, when once again, I saw the dark figure lurking in the trees. But this time, they stepped out from the shadows, making themselves visible for me to see. It was a tall man; he didn’t appear to be very built, seemed a bit older, with a hint of silver dusting his golden-brown locks. He just stood there staring at me, and a grin spread across his face; I continued to stare back, not moving. I wanted so badly to go out there, to ask him what he wanted and why he was watching me. I heard a noise come from outside the bedroom and turned towards the bedroom

#Chapter18I woke in a panic, covered in sweat, my heart pounding and unable to catch my breath. I closed my eyes to calm myself, taking slow, deep breaths. After a moment, I began to feel calm and relaxed.I opened my eyes and looked around, realizing I was in what looked like a hospital bed. Machines and other medical equipment surrounded me. I could hear people talking just outside the room; one of the voices sounded like Cain, another sounded like Calyx and the third voice I didn’t recognize. I attempted to sit up, but upon doing so, my head throbbed. I placed my hand to my head, cradling it, and that’s when I felt the large bandage wrapped around my head. The concern over the dressing quickly faded as my head throbbed painfully again. This headache was worse than a hangover. I sat back down and listened to the voices nearby.“She will be fine, Alpha. It’s a nasty bump, but no real damage or anything serious. She will make a full recovery.” A woman’s voice explained. “Good,

#Chapter20I ran a hand down the back of my head. “Sorry about that,” I said shamefully.He looked everywhere but at me. “It’s alright. Are you ok?”I nodded my head. “Oh yes, I am fine. Thank you.” I gave him a small smile. The way he had looked at me a moment ago made me feel a bit uncomfortable in his presence now. Calyx gave me a curt nod. “Good, what had you so distracted?” He asked curiously.“The paintings on the walls. Some of them are very beautiful.” I said honestly; they were colourful and filled with so much detail; it was like they told a story. Calyx looked around at the paintings, but one in particular, he seemed to focus on the most “Yes, some of them are, and some…are dark and ugly.” He said in a cold tone. “True, but so are some people, and yet, they are still admired and cherished.” I pointed out to him, hoping he would catch onto who I was talking about. “Good point. Anyways, shall we continue to the kitchen?” Just as Calyx asked that question, my stom
