TRACY’S POV
I stared into the empty space beside me and memories of last night flashed hazily in my mind.
He tended to my wounds. I never would have thought that the ruthless Alpha would ever do that.
He was so gentle, my whole body was on fire. I felt tingles every single part he massaged. I didn’t even know when I drifted into sleep.
“ How can one’s hands be rough and magical at the same time”, I thought to myself.
“Why did he do that?”, I couldn’t bring myself to answer this question that ran through my mind, He couldn’t possibly care about me.
I remember the way his eyes bore into my soul, he looked confused. I was confused too because there was no profound explanation for why he was tending to my wounds.
A look flashed in his eyes but before I could recognize it, he blinked and looked away.
“Was that care I saw in his eyes”, I would just wait until I encountered him again to know if he at least cared.
I was brought back to my senses when I stared into the empty space. Of course he didn’t care, I knew it.
He was nowhere to be found, he tended to my wounds and still left me here with no words. I swear to the moon goddess, this man confused me a lot.
I have to get to my room before Amber starts looking. She would have my head if she doesn’t find me, she must really hate me. She whipped me with so much aggression,spat on me and cussed loudly.
We would never get along, I guess.
She accused me of stealing and I don’t understand what that was about. She was a bit nicer to the other girls so I guess it was just me. She mentioned something about ruining my skin so the Alpha would see me for who I really am, I didn’t catch the exact words as the whip rippled through my skin.
I hurried out of the quarters after ensuring everywhere was neat and the bed was made.
I couldn’t shake away the feeling of loneliness as I heaved a sigh and left the room. Crystal wasn’t happy that our wolf wasn’t there.
I washed myself and rushed out to catch up with the others as I was running late. Amber met me halfway and stared at me in disgust.
“Why’s she so grumpy in the morning”, I thought to myself and before I could speak, she beat me to it.
“Why are you not with the others? We do not take lateness lightly here.Are you forgetting your place, you little whore?” She said the last word and squeezed her face like it tasted like bile in her throat.
I wanted to defend myself. I wanted to speak up, tell her never to call me a whore but I can’t. I don’t want to be punished, I couldn’t go through that again and I didn’t want to upset the king.
I held my lips in tight line and stared blankly at her . I guess that infuriated her more.
“Why are you staring at me? Get out of here and get to work! Don’t go to the Alpha’s office, you’re not allowed in there. We can’t have you stealing all our valuables”, she said her voice chirping loudly.
I nodded since I couldn’t form any words. She told me where I’d work today and I walked away quickly not sparing her a look.
I wanted nothing more than to be away from this witch.
The kitchen was where I was assigned and I must say, I’m a bit relieved because the women in the kitchen are a little nice.
I heard those heavy boots hitting the ground and I immediately knew who it was.
“Oh moon! His scent was so strong and irresistible” I guess this is also an effect of the claim and the mate bond.
He ordered that his food be brought to his quarters. He looked so worn out and stressed. He looked like something bothered him.
Before I could withdraw my eyes, his eyes were searching frantically and they met mine. He frowned and fear gripped me instantly.
“Did I do something wrong? Didn’t I clean the room properly? What could it be “ I was lost in my own thoughts and his voice jolted me back to reality.
“Why are you working in the kitchen? “, he said still frowning. The other ladies in the room looked curiously at the scene.
I couldn’t form words. I needed to stop going dumb when being spoken to. It would get me into trouble.
He raised his brows expectantly. He was waiting for an answer. I jumped to my feet and explained it was the duty assigned to me by Amber.
He looked like he wanted to protest but nothing came out and he walked out of the kitchen. I discovered I had been holding my breath and I released it . I signed in relief and I noticed I wasn’t the only one sighing, we all did.
Everyone held their breath around him. He’s such a cold man.
“But he’s our mate,” Crystal spoke and I nodded begrudgingly.
I finished late in the kitchen and I was very exhausted. The pains from my wounds were starting to kicking in again and I couldn’t wait to retire to bed for the night.
I went into my room and drifted into sleep almost immediately.
The loud knocks from the other side of the door cut short my beauty sleep but I couldn’t get up from bed, I was too tired.
I squeezed my eyes shut determined to continue sleeping.
“Why should anyone be knocking by this time of the night anyway?“
The noise grew louder and as I tried to give my sleep another shot, an angry voice spoke.
“Tracy, one more knock and you’re spending the rest of the week in the dungeons with no food or water.” he hissed out the words.
“ oh my gosh! It was the Alpha.”
I’m in trouble.
I scrambled over to the door in a speed that would have made me laugh if the situation weren’t intense
I fell to my knees as soon as I unlocked the door and rushed out apology.
“I’m very sorry sir, I was fast asleep. Please forgive me sir”
He was exasperated. He eyed me and said voice booming with command.
“Wear something sexy and meet me at the quarters in five minutes.”
Without sparing me a glance, he walked away mumbling words to himself.
I rushed to the wardrobe and scanned through the bag of lingeries given to me by the Beta when I first arrived.
“ I had to wear the best, maybe he would be less angry.” I said as I raked through the bag.
I finally settled for a feathery lacy red lingerie.
Red has always been my favorite color, I always thought it made me look more beautiful.
I suddenly felt discouraged as I caught sight of my wounds but I didn’t have time to sulk, it was time to get to work.
Displeased by my own thoughts, I shook my head and made my way out of the room.
I was on my knees and I fixed my gaze on the ground.
“Look up,” he ordered and I obliged immediately
He stared lustfully at my plump breasts and I subconsciously pushed my chest forward.
“What the hell is wrong with me?”
He spoke, “I’m very bored and stressed, let’s get this over and done with as soon as possible.”
“Get on the bed!”
And I did as told.
“ Until I sat otherwise, do not keep your eyes off my face,” he said and I nodded quickly
In a swift moment, his lips were on my breast. His mouth was on one and his hands on the other, he was twisting , nibbling and biting at the same time.
My whole body was on fire, I wanted him to take me. I needed him.
“ please…” I choked out.
“Use your words, tell me what you want me to do to you.” he said before biting down on my nipples.
“ I want you to take me, I need you inside me Alpha.” I pleaded.
He pushed himself into me and I held back a cry of relief.
He was thrusting faster than before and he looked as if his wolf was about to take over.
I wasn’t prepared for the next words that came out.
“Get out of here, now!” He yelled.
“Get out of here!” his voice boomed. I couldn’t believe my ears. I rose into action immediately. I hurriedly picked up my lingerie and rushed out of the room. He was breathing very heavily, eyes tightly shut. Slamming the door behind me, I sprawled on the bed, holding back the tears threatening to fall. How did my life suddenly turn this way? I moved from being free to being an Alpha’s prisoner and plaything. We were having fun, he enjoyed it, I saw it in his eyes, and he ordered me out just like that. “Did I do something wrong?” I thought as tears rolled down my cheeks. I didn’t try to stop the tears from flowing anymore. My wolf comforted me, although she seemed upset about something else. I could feel it, but I wouldn’t worry about that now. I was drained, and I felt like shit I cried myself to sleep and was woken up by loud barks of order by Amber.“You little Wench, I will pull down this door if you don’t get your ass out here now!” I jumped up like I got stung by an inse
KIA'S POV.I did not want to admit that I was worried about her, My wolf claimed that she was our mate but I could not really feel the mating bond, but all I knew was that I cared for her.Slightly. Yes, just a little bit.When I entered the kitchen and saw how she was trembling in fear because of my presence, I was suddenly overwhelmed with a confusing anger.The reason for my sudden anger was not known but I was just very angry. Why was she trembling? Was she also scared of me like other women? Was that it?A sigh escaped my lips and I finally held in my anger, wasn't that what I wanted? For her to be scared of me? Yes, I wanted her to be scared of me, so that she wouldn't be able to report anything to those that sent her.Of course, I was sure that some people send her. That was the main reason why I could not trust her.Also, she could never be our mate like my wolf kept saying, if she was, I would have known and felt the bond and also, she would have told me.No,I did not think t
TRACY'S POV.I was surprised when the unfamiliar man said that there was a spy among the guards. I could feel the Alpha's anger as it pulsated through him like an heartbeat and I could not help but shrank back into my seat.He was always very scary when angry, I was not sure of what he could do, so the best thing I could do was to keep quiet and keep my distance, so that he would not vent his anger on me.The more the unfamiliar man talked, the angrier the Alpha became, I gripped the hem of my gown tightly in nervousness, the temperature of the room suddenly went down dramatically and I shivered, goosebumps rising from my body and my eyes darted around, not daring to look at the Alpha, lest he turned to me and accused me of been rude.There was nothing that man could not do when he was angry, the rumors about him could not help but rise in my head and my heart skipped a bit.'He's our mate, you don't have to fear him.' Crystal said but it was as if she was also not sure, her voice was
KIA'S POV.The first thing I saw when I entered the room was the small figure of a woman in the couch, she curled herself into a ball as if the couch was too big for her.I did not know why but before I realised, my steps became lighter and I locked the door silently, so as not to make any noise to wake the sleeping Tracy. It was unknown to me why I cared so much for her, I just could not help it. It was as if my whole body was telling me to just treat her well and not maltreat her but I did not want to be irrational. After locking the door, I walked towards her slowly and as if I was under a spell, I bent down to her height and at close view, I could not help but marvel at her beauty.She does not have an extremely beautiful face that could topple a kingdom but she was gorgeous. She had the kind of beauty that would become more appealing the more you look, she gets prettier the more you look at her.She had a very pleasing looks and a naive expression.I also could not help but adm
TRACY'S POV.Instantly, I lost the appetite to eat the food when I heard what The Alpha said next and I could not help but laugh inwardly in bitterness.What was I expecting?For him to just start caring about me like in some fairy tales? For him to miraculously realise that I was his mate and we would live happily ever after?For him to realise his mistakes and apologize to me?What the hell was I expecting?I only had my self to blame for hoping too far, I was hoping for something that was beyond my reach and was hoping for somebody that could never be mine in the first place.Who's fault was it that I hoped too much and had too much expectations?The Alpha did not feel the mating bond and even if he does, he was not called the ruthless Alpha for nothing. Why would he care for a puny breeder, a servant like me when he had so many options, Amber was there and some other beautiful and competent women with good family background, so why would he bother about a slave?'Don't talk like t
TRACY'S POV.The sunlight seeped into the room gradually to indicate the beginning of dawn and the dim room became bright in an instant, making me unable to keep my eyes closed any more. I squinted my eyes opened and looked around the room with a hint of drowsiness in my eyes.After the morning sun tenderly woke me, occupying the room with its warm sparkle, a startling and furious knock at the door broke the quiet air.If I had not completely woken up prior to that, I became clear headed at that moment instantly. Startled, I hastily walked towards the door, my heart beating with a blend of confusion and dread. As I opened the door, I was met with the sight of Amber who was obviously vexed, her face flushed with outrage and dissatisfaction.She was seething with fury and my heart skipped a bit.Amber stared at me for a while before smiling hatefully, "The Alpha called for you." She said and I opened my eyes wide. What was happening?Even if the Alpha wanted me to come, there was no
KIA'S POV.I knew that it was wrong to treat Tracy like that, but I wanted to prove it to my wolf that I did not care about her, so i had no choice but to act that way towards her.But when I heard her sniffs, My reaction instantly went down and I cursed inwardly. Why was it that she could affect me no matter what she does? it was not just me, she could also affect my body reaction. I was previously hard and rigid but the moment I heard her cries, it was as if my dick had a mind of its own and my erection went down drastically.No matter how much I tried to force myself to be hard, so that I would be able to achieve my goals of hurting her to satisfy my ego, I just could not.It just did not work and it made me annoyed.A spy sent by the Elders got me whipped, who would believe that? And I would become a puppet of the Elders through her, that was definitely what they wanted.My anger rose like tidal waves and I stiffened on top of her, unable to enter nor leave as it would hurt my se
KIA'S POV.After reading through the files, I realised that there was nothing suspicuous about the movement of those two spies."Alpha, they came into the headquarters with three other werewolves and they were recruited after passing the required test, they've been staying with us for more than two months and no one has ever complained about them.""Also, they don't have any family members and they came from an orphanage, they've been friends since childhood."Scott explained and I nodded in agreement. There was nothing suspicious about their movements, so our only option would be to find clues from their friends."How many of them came into the pack then?" I asked with a solemn tone. "Five of them Alpha, the man in the Hospital was among them." Scott replied and I marked that man out, leaving just two people."Those two werewolves, how are they?" I asked and Scott stared at me."I will do that Alpha." He finally lowered his head and nodded. Scott and I had been together for years,
