Chapter 2 - Punishment

He carried me that way till we got upstairs into a huge bedroom and he placed me gently on the bed.

"Why? Does your boss want to sleep with me? Tell him, I'm not as pure as they told him I was. I have a terrible infection and it's not curable. If he touches me, he will also get infected." I explained.

The man who just seemed like a programmed robot didn't respond and he just left. I tried to run after him but I wasn't as fast. He also got out and locked the door before I reached there. I tried to pull the doorknob, but it didn't open.

"Fuck you!." I gritted angrily and kicked the door hard.

I returned to the bed, afraid of what might become of me. Was I going to lose my virginity to that strange Alpha tonight? What will he do to me after that? I was so scared to the extent that I folded myself on one corner of the bed. I used the duvet to cover myself, trying not to feel too comfortable so I don't fall asleep before he comes. I stared at the gigantic grandpa clock on the wall, it had just passed midnight, and the Alpha wasn't back. I was beginning to feel sleepy. I thought that maybe he wouldn't return tonight and I decided to rest my eyes. A few minutes into my sleep, I heard a loud howling sound coming from outside. It didn't sound like that of a werewolf but a monster. I became scared to my bones and quickly woke up. I began to search the room for weapons. Anything I could defend myself with before the Alpha comes in. I took a flower vase and positioned myself behind the door. I was just in time before the door was pushed open. I raised the vase higher and hit it on the person who entered.

When I opened my eyes, I noticed that he caught the vase above his head. My hands began to shiver and I let go quickly. I was about to go outside the half-opened door when he grabbed me with his other hand. His grip was too tight and I yelled in pain.

"Let go," I demanded. He didn't speak. He only stared at me, his yellow eyes gleamed brightly in the dimly lit bedroom. I watched him crush the flower vase with one hand, the solid case became powdered and crumbled down to the floor.

He instantly grabbed me on both shoulders and pinned me to the wall.

I could smell blood on him. His hand was bleeding.

"What are you trying to do?." He growled at me.

"I said let go." I kicked him hard, he didn't even bulge. He suddenly grabbed me roughly and took me with him to the bed. I felt his hard push and in no time I was on top of the bed. I couldn't help but think that 'It' was about to happen.

"No," I yelled.

"Please." I cried.

He pounced on me, I felt his whole weight on my body.

"Your body," He grinned. He brought his mouth closer to mine and I quickly shifted my gaze. His lips fell on my ear.

"I have a terrible infection, you can't touch me yet." I struggled to say.

"I own your body." He whispered.

"Forget those men who touched you."

Those were his only words before he stood up and left.

I was all alone in the room that night, I couldn't help but feel scared that he might come back for me. I didn't sleep till daybreak.

In the morning, some maidens came inside the room to meet me. They all held different boxes.

"My lady." One of them greeted me and moved towards me on the bed.

"We were sent by the Alpha to cater to your needs. We're going to help you bathe too." She informed me. I wasn't bought by her words yet.

"I don't need anyone to help me with anything. Tell your Alpha that I'm not interested." I said to her,

I struggled to stand up from the bed, I still felt dizzy from being tired. I remembered that I didn't eat my medicines after dancing last night. I quickly went to search for my handbag. I didn't bring it with me.

"No!." I muttered. My pendant was in it.

How was I going to survive without having my mum's pendant with me? It has been my GoodLuck charm since I was little and I have been surviving with it.

"Did you see my handbag?" I went and asked the Maidens.

"No miss, we didn't see anything." They replied in unison.

I quickly ran outside the room. I didn't know my way around but I went downstairs. I was searching for the man who brought me in yesterday. He must've seen my bag.

I reached the living room, I saw three men sitting directly opposite each other. One was the Alpha from last night. He looked more handsome than ever. However, he still maintained a dark look on his face. I wonder if he ever smiled.

"What are you doing here?." He asked me. I stood frozen as I stared at them. I didn't know what to say to him. But, from the looks of things, I have crossed my bounds. 'I shouldn't have come downstairs.' I thought to myself.

"Vin. I can see that you've gotten yourself a new pet. A hot one at that." One of the two other men spoke

'A new pet? I wasn't his first?.' I suddenly fumed in anger. I didn't understand myself but I suddenly got angry at the man's words.

"I asked why you've come downstairs?."

"I was searching for my handbag. I thought that I left it here last night." I replied coldly.

"Vincent, is she the one? Are you sure that it's going to work?." The second man asked, staring at me awkwardly.

"Shut it both of you," Vincent warned them.

"She's beautiful but not as beautiful as Hazel. I hope that it works."

I heard one of them speak as I returned upstairs. Who was Hazel? Why was I brought here in the first place? I became very curious as I returned to the room.
