Chapter 6.

Mira’s POV

I could hear the roaring engine, and I could feel the speed at which the car moved like we all had nine lives. Someone was holding me, and he smelled just like the person I had bumped into at the borders of the Stone Creek pack.

“How far away are we?” He asked with a rough voice, and I felt my body vibrate.

I remained silent despite the sharp pain I felt in my head. I was trying to analyze the situation to see if I'd have to escape again, or even if it was possible.

“In thirty minutes, we'd be there.” The other person spoke. He sounded soft spoken, but I could tell that it'd be the opposite of his character.

“Make it twenty.” The Alpha growled, and the car moved even faster.

I slowly opened my eyes, and thankfully, it was still dark. I didn't have to acclimatize to light.

“I know you're awake.” He said, just as I was about to open my eyes. I felt a sharp pain in my chest, opening my eyes completely. “You don't have to pretend around me.”

I suddenly remembered that he had just rejected me. How'd I have expected to be accepted by an Alpha of all persons? And not just even an Alpha, but a handsome one?

“Erm… erm…” I muttered, and he calmly sat me down, ridding himself of me.

“Khalid, go slowly now.” He growled, and the car moved at a considerably slower pace.

“Thank… you…” I muttered.

“Do you even know what happened?” He asked, and my eyes widened.

Does he want me to mate also? Will he force me to mate? It seems I'm always moving from frying pan to fire.

“Erm… no.” I muttered, fixing gaze on my clasped fingers, feeling my hands shake as the thoughts of what could be enveloped me.

“I'm not doing any of that.” He muttered, and my heart felt lighter. I heaved a sigh of relief, and closed my eyes gently. “You can speak freely.”

He didn't look at my face throughout the time he spoke. I knew not because I looked at him, but because I couldn't feel his eyes biting into my skin.

“Why did you buy me?” I asked, closing my eyes.

“I also don't know.” He shrugged. “I guess we'll find out.”

Tears welled up in my eyes as I couldn't comprehend why a total stranger, an Alpha, would just decide to save me from my misery and pay for me.

“I… I… I promise to repay whatever amount you spent buying me. I'd work hard to ensure I do.” I cried softly, making sure no whimper made it out of my mouth.

He scoffed, shaking his head.

“Can you pay a million, five hundred thousand dollars?” The driver, Khalid, asked.

My eyes widened, and I coughed immediately.

I stopped speaking and Khalid drove a little faster. Why would anyone pay such a huge amount for me?

My heart melted at the thought of it.

“To be honest, I also paid for killing the idiot that chased you.” The Alpha said, and I turned to look at him. He killed Jamie. I felt so much relief at the sound of that.

“What's your name?” I asked, and he scoffed, looking at me with his face folded into a frown. I immediately looked away from him, grabbing the hem of my garment as I could feel his eyes on me.

“Sorren.” He muttered. “My name is Sorren Raven.” He said calmly, and I nodded.

I didn't speak a word until we arrived at his pack. The air was different, and so was the smell of the place. It felt fresher and calmer.

Being so close to death had made me lose every bit of horniness that I felt although the blood moon was still out.

Khalid eased into a part of what looked more like a castle than a mansion. Khalid opened the door for me, and I found myself beside Alpha Sorren. He was very tall, and he had interestingly big biceps.

Maybe my greatest accomplishment was having him as a goddess given mate, even if it was for a very few seconds.

We were met immediately by someone with a staff. He had an aura that confirmed that he wasn't just a witch, but a seer. He was young, and his eyes were closed. He looked like he had been waiting.

“Thalos, what's going on?” Alpha Sorren asked, looking disturbed.

“We have to move really quickly, because she will soon show herself to men, and we can’t tell what'd happen.” He said. Alpha Sorren seemed very concerned by Thalos’ speech.

“Why now?” Alpha Sorren asked, and I felt terrible about eavesdropping. I wasn't even trying because they were being loud about it.

“Let's go in and speak better about it.” Thalos said, and his eyes opened for the first time. I almost fell to the ground, seeing that he had scaled covering his eyes.

Khalid stood behind me to ensure that I didn't fall.

“Something triggered her abilities.” Thalos said as we approached the building. “Nothing is clear to me yet, but I'll wait for the guidance of the spirits and ancient ones.”

On entering the huge house, a lady that would be defined as absolute beauty ran towards us. Her white skin looked so milky, and I could tell that it glows in the sunlight. She had very long hair, and her eyes were blue. She had perfect curves in the right places. She was wearing a red nightgown.

I bowed my head as she hugged Alpha Sorren. They kissed sharply, and I felt another pang of pain in my chest.

Only a pretty Luna for the handsome Alpha.

“I almost thought you'd abandon me tonight.” She muttered, very soft spoken.

“I wouldn't dare.” He growled.

She cast her eyes on me, and I could feel it although I wasn't looking.

“Nobody. Go and wait for me upstairs.” He commanded, and she followed his commands immediately.

“Raina.” Alpha Sorren called, and a slim lady of average height rushed out of one of the rooms, looking very calm.

“Alpha.” She muttered, bowing her head.

“This is Mira. Show her around, and give her a personal room. Wash her body and get her new clothes.” He ordered. “I'll be around by morning to instruct her.”

“Yes Alpha.” He growled.

He turned to leave, and tears welled up in my eyes again.

“Thank you, Alpha.” I muttered but he didn't respond. He was too busy speaking with the seer.

“Come with me.” Raina muttered.

I sighed, closing my eyes.

This is my life now.
