Chapter 7: THE ALPHA

Blood! There was so much blood! It was in my hair, my face, on my skin, it was everywhere and I wanted to get rid of if all! I could feel hands carrying me but I wasn't conscious enough. I could hear someone barking loud orders as I was being carried around but I couldn't comprehend anything. All I knew was I needed this clothes off me!

The sound of running water was nearby and I could feel hands pawing at my clothes roughly. I tried to protest weakly, as I struggled against whatever hands that was tearing at my clothes. I was still struggling when hands captured mine and held it firmly in place.

"Hold still for me little one." The deep voice commanded and for some reason, my body instantly obeyed his command.

The man continued to strip of my clothing, more gently this time since I stopped struggling. I then felt myself being carried and I was dumped into the bathtub which was filled with hot water. My body was still weak, so I slumped Into the bathtub. I was immediately pulled back to the surface with my back pressed against a warm body.

"Don't worry little one." That deep voice said again and I don't know but I think I mumbled something incoherent, "Let me take care of you" The man's voice soothed me and I relaxed against him. Once again, my body obeyed his command.

As the man took care of me, washing me clean of the sticky blood, the only thought in my head was how warm he was and how deeply relaxing his touches were.

THE sun streamed through the thin curtains in the bedroom. I winced a little as my eyes adjusted to the brightness of the room. Looking around, I realized how I was back in the room I was kept in. I looked down at myself only to see that I was dressed in a white cotton nightgown that fell all the way to my knees. With a sigh, I got up from the bed and was about to move around when I realized I was chained.

What the? I stared at my left wrist that was secured with chain. I moved around trying to free myself, wondering why the hell I was chained like some kind of animal. I was still trying to figure out the chains when the door opened and Aurora came in with three other girls who were carrying baskets in their hands. They also had clothes covering their faces.

"Hello Arianne." Aurora greeted cheerfully but I just wasn't in the mood for it.

"What the hell is this?"

"Oh, that." Aurora's gaze cut to the chain around my wrist, "That's to stop you from killing yourself" She explained with a smile on my face.

I frowned at her. "Killing myself? I don't seem to remember..."

"You escaped" Aurora cut me off and this time her tone was laced with disappointment.

I stood still as memories of when I tried to escape came crashing down on me. The woods, the roasted deer, the men...no, not men, werewolves and the blood, so much blood. I looked down at myself remembering the stench of blood on my skin.

"You are lucky he chose to save you at that moment" Aurora said and I frowned at that. He? Who was she talking about? "Though I'm actually surprised he did because he knew when you were escaping, we all did. We could hear you moving furnitures around your room" Aurora informed me and I just continued staring at her, still confused.

"Who is he?" I asked looking at her and she arched a brow up in surprise.

"You met him already." She retorted and it was my turn to arch a brow up at her, "My brother isn't one many ladies forget that easily. Especially when they share a bath with him" She added with a coy smile which still left me confused as always.

I decided to ask who she was talking about again. "Who is he?"

"Don't worry, you'll see." Aurora smirked at me and it was the first time I'll see her without a smile, "Get her ready for breakfast." She said to the girls behind her who bowed their head at her command.

"See you soon and also, don't cause any trouble. Just go with this" Aurora warned me with a tired look on her face and with that she left, leaving me alone with the girls who were advancing towards me.

I instinctively took a step backwards but they didn't stop. One of them removed the chains from my wrist with a key, while the others started to strip me.

"I'll have my own bath, so can you stop?" I asked but they ignored me and just removed my clothing till I was naked in front of them. I immediately raised a hand to cover lady parts. It just feels weird standing naked in front of three beautiful fully clothed women.

"Are you all werewolves too?" I asked them but they didn't answer me, "What are your names?" I tried a different approach. Maybe if I make enough friends, they would show me a way out of this mess but of course the girls remained mute.

One of them motioned towards the bathroom while the other two stood at my back. A gentle reminder for me not to try any funny business, like run away. I obediently moved towards the bathroom with the girls following after me. One of the girls decided to run a bath for me and I stepped in.

Whatever soap she added smells really nice, I'm guessing Lavender. I sat still inside the water as the women washed my body. A memory of the warm body pressed against me inside a bathtub quickly flashed in my mind and I frowned at that. I immediately sat up and looked at the girls who were looking at me with blank stares on their faces.

"Do you guys have male servants?" I asked but they just blinked at me and I realized how stupid my question was.

"I mean have I taken a bath with any man?" I amended but that also sounded stupid because how can I be asking them of my intimacy with any man. We haven't met each other until today and now I'm already giving them personal details about my life.

While you are at it, be sure to tell them how inexperienced you are. That you are a twenty year old virgin, A tiny voice whispered in my mind.

I relaxed back into the bathtub and allowed the girls to continue bathing for me. After they were done bathing me, the girls walked me back to the bedroom. I was sat in front of the mirror and they immediately began working on my hair.

I keep waiting for series if questions to drop about the colour of my hair but the girls only focused on the task at hand. They gently ran the brush through my hair and then next, they wove flowers inside it. I tried to protest but they ignored me. One even smacked my hand when I tried to remove the flowers.

I decided to sit still till they were finished with it. They then worked on my face, not that much of a makeup like Rissa did to me. They just used the dark pencil around my eyes and balm was applied to my lips. When they were done, they brought the dress for me to wear. I took one look at it and I knew there was no way in hell I was going to put it on.

"Nope. Nah uh. No way. Just no!" I shook my head at the dress the girls were holding.

"You are to wear this dress for breakfast" One of the girls spoke, surprising me momentarily before what she said registered.

"Well, I'm not putting it on." I said standing my ground.

One of the girls sighed warily. "This dress was chosen by the alpha himself!"

"Really? Then where's the rest of it?" I stared at the dress. It was truly beautiful no doubt. It was light blue with dropping white sequins beads. It was very beautiful but the only thing was that , it was see through. It was also cut low at the front and at the back.

"You really have no choice in the matter. The alpha wants you to wear this to breakfast and that's what you shall do." A girl ordered me sternly.

I scoffed at that. "Like I could give a lamb's ass about what your alpha wants!"

"WATCH YOUR TONE HUMAN!" A girl commanded as she stepped forward, her eyes glowing amber colour. "Never disrespect the alpha! Never!" She growled threateningly at me making sure I understood the message and I nodded my head at her.

"But I'm still not wearing the dress, I just can't."

"I'm afraid you don't have much choice. You will wear the dress even if we have to force you to" Another girl said a cutting edge to her tone. I realized I was testing their patience that way and they could easily force me to wear the dress too. They had super strength after all.

I decided to swallow my words and allowed the girls to dress me. As soon as I was dressed I turned to look at myself in the mirror. There was no difference between this and being naked. My breasts were on display. I could see them through the dress.

The 'V' cut at the front was cut so low that it displayed some cleavage. It also exposed my back. The only thing that was covered, was my vagina but I know I will see my ass if I turned and looked in the mirror.

"Let's go, the alpha awaits!"

I turned and followed the girls out of my room. I kept my expression into a solemn one as the girls led me to the dining hall. I didn't get to look around much and just continued to follow the girls. Soon we stopped in front of a big wooden door and it immediately swung open at our presence.

As soon as I got in, I realized this was no simple breakfast. A long table that was filled with different varieties of food was in the middle of the room. There were a lot of chairs present too, I counted like twenty of them or so. Each of them were filled with people who were drinking and chattering happily.

I could feel my heart beat in fear as I took in the guests. The person who stood out was the man who was sitting at the head of the table. I'm guessing he was the alpha. I guessed that because he was the only one staring at me while the rest were oblivious to my presence. A slow smirk appeared on the man's face as he stared at me and I realised what this whole thing meant.

The guests, the dress and him. This was his way of showing me off. I was his prize and this was a way of letting everyone knew he had won.
