Marked!

Arianna's Pov…

When I was told that the Alpha wanted to see me, I thought he wanted to punish me but I haven't done anything wrong lately.

Since the incident of the theft had been cleared, I had been living with the healer. I had also become friends with some male omegas who always gift me fruits to make me healthier.

Even Alpha Starr's beta, Giovanni, had been my constant visitor and friend. He always took care of my needs and makes me feel comfortable. I recovered a lot thanks to him.

I was surprised Alpha Starr was asking for me because he had totally ignored me after that incident. Although I was recovering, it wasn't too fast because I still haven't gotten my wolf.

"You need to get going, Ari. Don't incur his wrath," Valeria said, cutting into my thoughts.

Valeria was a friend I made in the pack and she had been one of a kind. She was an orphan omega just like me.

" Okay, Val. I will see you when I get back," I told her, smiling.

" Be careful, you are still a little weak," She said, her tone sounding worried.

I smiled at her before leaving. Careful? With someone like Alpha Starr? I just pray the goddess helps me out. 

I walked briskly to his chamber and one of the guards directed me to his room. Stepping into his room , it reeked of smoke - it made me sick and I guess I was still not fully recovered. The Alpha was seated comfortably on a chair, his dark eyes roaming around me. 

What does he want this time around? Should I clean his room or..? 

"Strip" He said the least expected word and my heart jumped out of my mouth. 

Oh no! Not again! 

What does that mean? What was he going to do to me? But I didn't bother to look for answers to my questions. Who wants to face the wrath of this newly found devil?

I started with my blouse and slowly took it off. I could feel his eyes on me as he stood there, smoking. I tried hard not to look at his face

I proceeded to my skirt and then I was nak*d, in front of a stranger again. The only difference was that he was the only one here. My hands folded together, my eyes on the floor waiting for his next order. 

The fact that my body was filled with bruises made me sad and embarrassed in another way. 

"Hold the table and turn your back," Starr said in his thick masculine voice.  

I swallowed as I got hold of the table. Was he going to whip me? I hated them for making me feel humiliated everytime. Why was I always told to stand naked? 

 Or what was he planning in his head?

Starr didn't bother looking at me. He dropped his cigarette into the ashtray and moved to my back.

My heart started beating faster than usual, expecting whatever my fate was. That instant I felt his hand touching my b*tt.

"A virgin?" He asked, his voice husky.

I nodded weakly without looking at his face. Would he be excited or disappointed?

"Sh*t," he cursed under his breath, staring at my butt.

I turned to look at him and I saw a glinter pass through his eyes. Why was he looking at me like that?

"A virgin and already flirting with men?" He asked coldly.

Flirting with men? When was that? I had barely been here for a week! Was he talking about the omegas that were helping me out?

" I… I didn't flirt with… anyone?" I stuttered, looking down.

Somehow I knew I was in trouble and my body began to shake nonstop. 

"You didn't?" He asked, getting closer to me, sniffing my scent.

Somehow I felt drawn to him and my body longed for his. A feeling that I have never felt before rushed into my body but then I don't have a wolf, why am I feeling attracted to him?

" I see you don't have a wolf yet… How old are you?" He asked, smiling devilishly.

" I.. I will be eighteen in a week," I stuttered, biting my lips.

I heard him growl as his eyes turned red… with lust. What the hell was happening?

"If you don't stop biting your goddamn lip, I don't mind taking you right now," he growled, his eyes roaming all over my naked body.

I quickly adjusted my mouth… that's quite a dangerous look from him!

"You will be eighteen soon, so I assume you neither have a wolf nor a mate," he said with a smirk.

What the hell was he trying to do?

"I… I don't…"

"Good. Then as a punishment for seducing the men in the pack, you will remain mine… forever," he said, the evil smirk getting bigger.

Just as I was about to ask him what he meant, he was already by my side. His eyes had turned deep red and his fangs spread out.

Could it be what I was thinking?

At that moment, I felt a sharp pain on my neck, close to where I was supposed to be marked by my mate!

What did he just do to me? Why would he mark me when he wasn't my mate? How was I going to find my mate?

"You are mine… forever!" He said, licking off the blood from the spot and I felt a tingling sensation that ran through my whole body.

I felt my body getting weaker again and my sight was beginning to become blurry. 

He moved away from me and took a cigarette which he lit and started smoking instantly. 

I looked at him from where I was, my sight was becoming blurry due to the tears and pains. All I could call him inwardly was a devil but why am I finding it hard to hate the devil?

"Get dressed and get out" Starr said and I managed to put on my uniform as weak as I was.  

Dragging my feet out of his room, I almost tumbled. But a hand caught me in time. 

Though my vision was blurry, I could tell who it was. 

"Are you okay?" He asked softly, making me smile - he spoke gently to me. 

I wanted to reply, tell him I am fucked up. 

My life was in a mess - my parents are gone, I almost lost my virginity in the worst way possible and…I just got marked by who wasn't my mate! 

"I am weak" I mumbled before falling into the hands of the only man that had been caring for me. 

I was damn unlucky!
