The Alpha's enchantress

Sometimes, no matter how much you are innocent, you would always be in the wrong and one way or the other, people are always going to see you as the bad one.

The world had its own standard, and somehow, I just never seemed to meet up to them.

“you can’t keep doing this Anya” my father scolded, looking at me with a bit of distaste before he continued scolding me. “You knew it was wrong and you decided to continue!!”

“but he is mine” I said, nearly breaking down into tears

“it doesn’t matter!!!!” he said, the look of distaste slowly turning into one of anger. “it is disgusting and everyone is going to avoid you if you keep doing things like this!! “ he yelled. You could already tell that he was at his wits end already.

“I am sorry” I said, saying it in the most practiced way. I had done this a lot of times to know what exactly I was to say in times like these

But that was the truth.

I was sorry.

Sorry that I was caught by my parents. If I had practiced a little more stealth maybe he would not have known. But I was definitely not sorry for my actions.

“no” my dad said, looking at me with this knowing gaze. “That is not enough anymore. Starting from today, no more magic” he said, looking at me sternly.

“Ethan!!” my mum called from the other side of the room.

“she has to learn, or one day, it is not just going to be Ethan we would have to worry about.

“no more magic! Until you can learn to control yourself!!” he said, with a stern gaze.

I sighed, marching into my room like I was angry.

Time and time again he had yelled this way at me, so now was definitely not new.

I sat down, looking at the mirror right in front of me

*no more magic* my father’s words rang in my ear as the thought crossed my mind.

‘it’s not like he is going to know’ a little voice whispered in my ear, making it more and more difficult to even think straight

“it’s going to be harmless” I whispered to myself, standing up from my spot to get closer to the mirror.

With ease, the words flew from my mouth as I looked straight into the mirror, making it turn almost liquid before it turned hard again.

I let out a breath, looking at the man at the other side,

Ethan.

I smiled as I looked at him, the smile immediately leaving my face as I understood what was happening.

There, the man I was sure was my mate was… touching himself rather inappropriately. I watched as he threw his head back, stroking himself while he moaned with pleasure.

I gulped, my mind racing a million miles per minute while I stood there, fighting the urge to enter the mirror.

“so close” he muttered, his pace increasing by the minute “Lucy” he called, moaning the name like it was some sort of prayer he dared not say out loud.

I paused for a moment, looking at the boy that I was ready to sacrifice my life for.

‘was my name Lucy? Had mother suddenly changed my name and I was not aware of it?’ I asked myself over and over again, looking at the mirror then I felt it.

Rage filled my whole body, shaking me to the core that I entered, not even doing the usual protection spell before crossing over.

“Ethan!” I boomed, looking at him with anger.

“what the fuck is wrong with you!!!” he growled, rushing to cover himself as he growled.

“no, what the fuck is wrong with you!!!” I screamed back, taking a step forward. “Who is she” I continued, not even giving him a chance to speak.

“you are one bloody psycho and if you don’t get the hell out of here…”

“WHAT!” I cut him off, looking at him still with the rage burning in my chest “I am your bloody mate, and the fact that you are not getting that into your thick skull!!...” then I felt it.

His hands connected with my cheeks, shocking me into fear.

“I am done entertaining your nonsense” the anger in his eyes were for lack of better words “I, Ethan, son of Alpha Tobias would never even think of getting a disgrace like you as my mate” his voice was resolute, making it almost impossible to ignore the stinging feeling.

The anger washed off of me in an instant, being replaced by sadness. “Ethan…” I called softly, looking at him through my lashes. “look” I took in a deep breath, “I am sorry okay? I just…”

“No!” he cut me off, which genuinely shocked the hell out of me. He had never once tried to refuse my apologies before.

I would cross a boundary, he would blow a fuse, then I apologize, sincerely and then that would be the end for a while but now? This was something I was definitely not used to.

“what?” I blinked, looking at him with wide eyes.

“I am sick and tired of your tricks Anya and honestly, today? You have gone too bloody far!” I could have sworn that I saw a tear at the corner of his eyes, one which he blinked back “you have harassed me in front of my friends, you have given me no breathing space since I was fourteen! And you have basically made me not have a life!!!!” he was breathing heavily at this point, almost as though he was ready to pass out. “and now… you… you…” if this was some sort of animation, I was damned sure that he would have had smoke coming out of his ears by now.

“Ethan, relax” I tried to calm him down but that seemed to do the opposite.

“relax?” his voice was a whisper “you do not see anything wrong? You do not see how messed up this is?!!” he was roaring by now “I fucking hate you!!” he words stabbed through my chest

“you don’t mean that” I called but it was lost on him.

“I mean it, I mean every word!! I wish you had just died in the accident!!!” he screamed, stomping out of the bathroom and leaving me all alone in the bathroom…
