CHAPTER TWO: ALPHA ALEXANDRO

VALENCIA’S POINT OF VIEW

I looked at my aunt and cousins, I begged, pleaded, cried but everything fell on deaf ears, it’s like as if they are unwilling to listen to anything I have to say.

“Please, please do not send me away with this stranger.” I cried, I don’t even know this man who is supposed to be my husband, I have never seen him in my life before, how am I supposed to love him and care for him like a wife? How am I supposed to live with him?

“Th… the werewolf linking ceremony is tomorrow, I promise I will get linked to my mate and stop being a burden to you aunt.” I said again sobbing.

“I want you gone today, besides No werewolf would want to be linked to you, if somehow the moon goddess curses anyone by linking them to you, you will surely be rejected and then I would have to continue taking care of you.” My aunt said with a mean scowl on her face.

She is right, how did I ever think that anyone would want me? Everyone here hates me, nobody would want to be my mate, I would become nothing but a rejected wolf sent to leave faraway in the outlands with other outcasts.

“Valencia just leave! go now! I am tired of seeing your pathetic face! you remind me of my sister who I hate so much!” My aunt yelled again. I trembled at the force of her hatred, I wish my parents were alive… what am I going to do? How am I supposed to live with someone I do not know?

I turned my gaze to the stranger who is supposed to be my new husband, he frowned at me.

“What the fuck are you looking at!” He said meanly, I flinched and looked away at the ground.

“We have to be on our way now,” he said to no one in particular as he moved to where I was standing and pulled me roughly to the car, opened the car door and tossed me in like I am nothing but garbage.

“I hope he likes you or else he is going to have my head on a stake. He has rejected twenty mates already and he is already starting to get angry, I hope you somehow manage to tickle his fancy or else I will be dead meat.” The strange man who is supposed to be my husband said to himself with a sigh.

He hopes who likes me?

“I mean you are everything he described, beautiful, petite, blue eyed, blonde haired and most importantly you are an orphan. He has to like you but yet again the other girls were exactly like you so I don’t know. Oh moon goddess please help me.” The stranger said out loud again.

I am on the car seat, filled with a lot of burning questions all of which I do not feel brave enough to ask so I just stay quiet and stare straight ahead at the barren grasslands that signifies the end of my pack’s territory.

My eyes starts to water again, I never thought i would ever leave crescent wolf pack, I never in a million years thought I would be kicked out of my own pack by my aunt, that I would have to leave the familiar for the unfamiliar.

I don’t want to go any further, I don’t want to leave my pack, even though they all hate me around there at least I know them, i don’t know anything about this new territory that we are entering, i don’t know anything about this man that I am to marry, this is all so strange and sudden, moon goddess please help me.

We stopped at a very big palace, the gate was opened by two hefty guards, my new husband drove in.

Werewolf training was happening at the front, then as we moved further down the palace through the glistening silver gate, that was where I saw two people getting punished. These two people both females were tied to a tree, they had almost nothing on and were being flogged by hefty men, their bodies were covered in blood and bruises, I flinched, I do not want to be part of this pack! They are… brutal!

“Get out of the car and follow me.” My new husband yelled rudely at me, I hesitated, i don’t know this place, I don’t know anyone here, where is he taking me?

My new husband noticed my hesitation and gave me a slap across the face.

“When I say move you move, got it!” He snared at me, I nodded crying and holding my sore cheek. We walked through a gigantic throne room, down a regal looking hallway, through an elevator before getting in to a room.

My new husband, Derrick pushed me across the room to a man who was sat at the opposite end of the room with his back face to us.

“M…Master, Al…Alpha Alexandro.” Derrick stuttered as called to this man.

“Do you have the girl?” The man, asked not even bothering to face us. Who is he? Why is he asking about me? I don’t know what is happening… I don’t know why it is happening.

“Yes Alpha Alexandro, she is here.” Derrick said in a panicky tone. The man turned around to face us, he stared at me for sometime with a blank look on his face.

“She will do.” He finally said and stood up from the chair he was sitting on.

“Did he tell you why you are here little wolf .” He asked with a smirk on his face, I felt my blood starting to freeze from fear.

He moved closer to me, he studied me like I am a sample under a microscope. My heart started to beat fast, my breath felt like it was somehow stuck to in my lungs. I tried to breathe, tried to keep my heart from beating so fast.

“He didn’t tell now did he?” He asked again, i shock my head signifying no.

“You are here to die my love… you have to die so I can finally be happy.” Alpha Alexandro said to me with a smile on his face, I turned to look at my new husband Derrick, I looked at him searching his face for an explanation.

“I am sorry kiddo.” He said looking sympathetic for the first time since I met him before looking away…
