Chapter 6

Celine heard the door to the dark room open and a ray of hope shone on her, she managed to stand despite being so weak, she heard steps and a lamp approaching her, she set her eyes keenly on the lamp and blury image of the person with the lamp, "Alpha Feathers had requested of you to come to the dinning." 

She arched her brow in surprise and wondered what Feathers planned on doing to her. 

"But I do have a message for you, don't go out there and tell Alpha Feathers that you are coming from the dark room, that's if he ask. Tell him you are coming from your room," the guard said.

She suspected that something could be wrong and then asked, "and why would I have to lie?"

"Cause if you don't, Miss Barbara will make your life even more devastating. Remember you are just a slave?" The guard said.

After the guard saw that Celine wouldn't say another word, he thought that she had agreed and then led her outside. 

After a few walks, they arrived at the dinning table. Celine took a look at Feathers then lowered his head, 'An handsome beast' she said in her heart. 

Feathers wondered why she was wearing the same cloth that she wore a few days ago when she was brought to the castle. Slaves have a special type or cloth they wore and he had ordered for about ten of it with different colors to be delivered to Celine. 

"Stinks, gosh!' Irma said, as he shot Celine a disgusting look. 

Celine knew that everyone on this table most definitely hate her with passion. She wish she was with other slaves, maybe she would feel better rather than being kept here with people who hate her so much. 

"Send her away Alpha, she's making us loose appetite...ewww!" Barbara chirped in, rolling her eyes against Celine. 

"Inform Louis to appear here now, Feathers ignored both mother and daughter and commanded the guard that brought her here. 

"Okay, sir," the guard bowed and quickly dissapeared. He came back in a jiffy with Louis. 

"Alpha, you sent for me," Louis said with a slight bow of his head. 

"What did you serve her this morning?" Feathers asked, Barbara's threatened gaze was on the guard, warning him seriously not to tell the truth about her still in the dark room. 

Louis was the guard that Barabara offered money a day ago while commanding him to keep her in the lockroom. 

Before the guard could respond, Celine spoke," I wasn't served anything. I haven't eaten anything since..." 

"Will you keep quiet? Who gave you the ordersity to talk before our alpha, don't be silly," Irma interrupted Celine, trying to protect her daughter.

Was she called over here to just watch then? Celine thought, feeling disgusted at how Irma shouted on her to keep quiet. 

Feathers stood and walked towards her, he grabbed her tiny wrist and said to everyone at the table, "you can go ahead and eat." He then dragged her with him inside. 

Everyone on the table were shocked, Barabara almost went crazy when she saw him hold Celine's hand. Ever since she had been trying to make him notice her, he had never even given her a face not to talk of touching any part of her body yet he touched Celine and even took her away. 

Barabara literally felt like burying Celine alive, if anyone would be a threat to her, it should not be an ordinary slave.

"Get away," Barabara screamed on Louis and one other guard present in the room, Luois and the guards walked away quickly. 

"Mum, I feel so insulted," Barabara began to cry," he hasn't even said any words of compliment concerning the food I took hours to supervise. Mum, seems he likes Celine," Barabara said. 

"Common Barbara," Irma hate to see her only daughter cry, she quickly brought out an handkerchief and cleaned her face with it, "please stop crying, it hurts me." But Barbara never stopped crying. 

"Listen to me Barabara, it's not possible for our Alpha to ever like the daughter of his enemy, he is most definitely taking her inside to punish her," Irma said. 

"But why did he call her here at a time when we are about to eat? Was Celine that important to him? We all went against it but he still insist for her to be brought here," Barabra asked painfully. 

"If you like my grandson, why don't you tell him rather than hurting yourself?" Amelia, Feather's grandmother asked. She had already started eating immediately Feathers gave the order for them to eat. 

Roy was watching his wife and his daughter and didn't know exactly what to say. Feathers was present when Brett beheaded his mate many years back, how can someone like that still have a heart to fall in love? Plus he doubts if the moon goodess can ever bless Feathers with a new mate. 

"Is it that easy to confess one's feeling to the alpha? Grandma, if you can't comfort my daughter, please let us be," Irma said, angry at what Amelia said and her indifferent attitude towards Barbara.

Amelia smirked and continued eating. 

"Barbara, please eat ... The alpha gave us order to continue eating already...please," Brett pleaded. 

Barabara looked at the food before her with a face blurred with tears, "I won't eat," she stood and walked away from the table. 

"Your daughter seems to have a hot temper," Amelia said sarcastically to Irma, this time, she was almost done eating. 

"Roy, do something....she will hurt herself," Irma pleaded with her husband. Although Roy was hungry, he stood quickly and walked after his daughter. 

Irma sighed and picked up her cutlery, just as she got from the food before her, Amelia scoffed briefly. Irma paused and looked at Amelia maliciously wondering what the scoff was for. 

"I thought you wouldn't eat since your daughter didn't eat?" Amelia asked. 

"Grandma, I know you have never loved my daughter and I but I think it will be good if you learn to mind your business in this castle," she said angrily. 

Amelia dropped the cutlery on her plate and looked at her sternly," who are you to tell me to mind my business? If you were close to me this moment, I would have slapped you hard. I hope you know that my grand son will do whatever I want him to do...such as banning your generation away from the pack, be careful." She stood and then walked away.
