Wanda POVThe Omegas were huddled together in a corner of the yard, holding their crying children in their arms. “Shut up!” One of the Red Rock warriors shouted and aimed a rifle at a woman who tried to soothe her crying baby. “Hey!” I shouted and placed myself in front of the barrel. “Hurting women and children is a coward’s move.”“Move bitch.” The warrior growled. My heart pounded in my ears, but I remained standing with the barrel pressed to my chest. “Name and rank?”I recognized the voice instantly and my blood boiled. It was Alpha Harald. The warrior lowered his gun and took a step back when Alpha Harald pushed past him. “Wanda Nordin, Omega rank,” I replied and glued my eyes to the ground. I wanted to punch the guy in the face, but I needed to protect my Omegas. My pride was a small sacrifice for their well-being. “Wanda.” Alpha Harald said. ”I trust that you can hold your people in check.”I nodded.”I can Alpha.” I replied. ”May I make a request?”I looked up and he
Alessandro POVI was surprised to see her in those clothes. Her long legs were on full display under that leather skirt and the tight red shirt revealed a lot of cleavage.I resisted the urge to look down on her beautiful tits as she tilted her head back when I walked up to her. “I think it’s time we had a chat,” I said. Cecilia gulped. “I don’t know what you want from me, Alpha.” She said quietly. “I told you already.”I smirked. “You did, but I don’t believe a single word of it.” I retorted.I entangled my fingers in her hair and pulled her head further back. “I’ll give you one last chance,” I whispered. “Who are you?”Cecilia blinked at me. “I-I’m an Omega that was sold to the auction house.” She whispered.“And your hair?” I asked. “Covered in soot from the fireplace.” She replied. “I slept there when the nights were cold.”I narrowed my eyes. “And the mark?” I asked. Cecilia closed her eyes. “Marked by force.” She whispered. “He doesn’t really want me.”I frowned.“Is t
Cecilia POVMy heart pounded in my chest and my mouth went dry. For a moment, I just froze and stared at him. An image of the warrior in the basement with cuts and bruises all over his body flashed before my eyes. "A-are y-you going to hurt me?" I squeaked. "Like the warrior in the basement?" Alessandro chuckled."You and I are going to have a lot more fun than he had. But yes, it will probably hurt a little."”I don’t understand what you want from me.” I was exasperated. “I already told you everything!”“And I don’t believe you,” Alessandro growled. “Therefore I will do anything I want with you to make sure that I can trust you.”Goddess, why did that sound so sexy? “You bought me.” I retorted and crossed my arms over my chest. “You can do anything you want anyways.”Alessandro smirked at me.“You’re right.” He whispered. “I can do anything I want. And I want to make you sing.”I frowned.“I’m not much of a singer,” I said sheepishly.He chuckled.“You sang so beautifully in the
Cecilia POVI stared at Alessandro. “What Alpha’s daughter?” I asked.“The one from MoonStone pack,” Alessandro replied and released my wrists from the handcuffs. “I believe you.”I sat up and rubbed my wrists, feeling confused.I was the Alpha’s daughter.But I was very much alive.How could my body have turned up in the forest?“That’s terrible,” I said. “What happened?” “Her body was burned so no one really knows,” Alessandro said. “They only identified her on the hair and the wedding dress.”I frowned.Someone must have faked my death to get the warriors off my tail.I felt relieved that I didn’t have people after me anymore, but my heart still sank at the thought of someone losing their life because of me.“I suppose that you were telling me the truth.” Alessandro’s voice broke me out of my thoughts and I looked up at him. I shrugged. “I understand,” I replied. “We’ve just met. I don’t expect you to blindly trust me.”Alessandro sat down beside me and rubbed my wrists.“But
Cecilia POVI was startled awake by the door opening. I glanced at the time and frowned when I saw that it was in the middle of the night. I saw Alessandro walk in and relaxed slightly, but I tensed again when I saw a girl walk in behind him. I sat up and stared at them, unsure what was going on. “Is this her?” The girl asked. Alessandro nodded. “Cecilia, I’d like you to meet Soraya.” He said. “She’s going to be staying here for a while.”I blinked. “Yes, Alpha,” I replied and looked down. I figured it would probably look weird if I didn’t address him properly Soraya frowned. “I don’t get it.” She said. “You bought her at an auction and you let her call you ‘Alpha’? You let her sleep in your bed? She’s a slave. She should be calling you ‘master’.”Alessandro clenched his jaw but nodded. “You’re right.” He said and I looked at him confused.He turned to me. “You will only address me as Master from now on.”I nodded. “Yes, Master.”I didn’t really know what was going on. Who
Cecilia POVThe door opened, startling me for the second time in one night. “Get up!” Someone shouted. I sat up and rubbed my eyes. After everything that happened during the night, I had trouble sleeping and it felt like someone had run me over with a truck. I stiffly climbed out of bed and walked over to the dresser. I figured that I needed to wear something else than a lace shirt and a leather skirt. Thankfully, I pulled out an old T-shirt and some jeans from the dresser. Both were too big for me, but I had to make due for now. I put some slippers on and followed the rest of the Omegas to get some breakfast. When I entered the dining hall, I looked around for Olivia, hoping that I would see her somewhere. But the sun was out, so I guessed that she didn’t want to leave her room. The Omegas were quickly given a slice of bread with some cheese. I wasn’t really hungry, but still managed to scarf it down before we were ushered out to attend to the chores. “You!” Judith shouted
Alessandro POVReally? Did I just say that?I don’t trust anyone. Why would I trust a girl I just met?I couldn’t answer that.And yet, I let her live in my pack knowing she kept secrets. I shook my head to clear my thoughts and walked over to my office. Heaving a sigh of relief, I shrunk down in my chair and rubbed my forehead. I just couldn’t seem to figure her out. The thought crossed my mind to interrogate her again, but with Soraya around I didn’t trust that it would turn out well. A knock on the door made me look up and Soraya walked in, her heels clicking against the floor. “Hey babe.” She said and walked around my desk. “I think we should talk.” “I agree,” I muttered. Soraya pushed back my chair and sat down straddling my lap and wrapping her arms around my shoulders. “You need to stop protecting her.” She said. I frowned. “You scalded her.” I retorted. “Slave or not, I won’t tolerate you hurting her like that.” Soraya shrugged. “I didn’t know the water was so ho
Wanda POVThe Omegas in the kitchen glanced nervously at each other as lunchtime approached. The silent question hung in the air. Who would be serving the Alpha lunch this time?Everyone dreaded it. Especially the younger Omegas who were constantly groped and assaulted by him every time they served him. I sighed and rolled my eyes. “I’ll do it,” I said.The collective sigh of relief that was heard through the kitchen almost made me smile. “Thank you.” Alicia groaned. “He put his hand up under my skirt yesterday like that was the most normal thing.”I wasn’t exactly looking forward to having Alpha Jerkface’s hand up under my own skirt, but better for me than Alicia. She was 19 years old. She shouldn’t have to put up with pricks like him. After gathering the food and drinks for the Alpha and his bunch of stupid goons sitting around in the former Alpha’s office, I pushed the cart to the office and knocked on the door. “Enter.” A voice said curtly from the inside. I opened the door
