Chapter 19: Will We Leave Today? Alpha King Caspian's POV: I wondered if she even knew she had a wolf. If she even had communication with her wolf. All at once, she turned to look away and when she did, I looked at the doctor who grabbed a syringe from the Aide standing next to her. The doctor started to inject a clear liquid into the line leading to her arm. After a moment, I gently started to lay her back down as one of the Aides helped by gently pulling on the sheet she was lying on. This allowed her feet to move back to a better position on the bed, without anyone having to touch her in my presence again. After I had her lying down, I let go of her as her eyes were still closed. I held onto the rail on the side of the bed. I wasn't sure what to think at that moment, but certainly had a lot going through my mind. 'No one touches Mate. She is our Mate. NO One Touches!' (Cash demanded for our Mate's safety.) 'No one is going to touch our Mate, Cash. The doctor put a sleeping agen
Chapter 20: Strange To Be ExpectedAlpha Roland's POV:I was glad when we finally reached the top of the stairs leading to the Dining Hall. If there was something I was looking forward to, it certainly was getting something to eat. I turned as I watched Duke reach my position on the top step, then he raised his hand out in front of him, gesturing for me to head on as long as I was ready. Duke liked to ensure he had my approval before we walked anywhere that was, and I agree. He was the kind of Beta I had always dreamed of having, one who ensures to show respect and knows who is the true Alpha of this pack.As we started to walk down the hall, I thought about everything that happened earlier. I was still bothered by the fact that I was almost run over by His Highness, carrying the one servant from the dining hall. I still wondered what it meant as to why He was carrying her in the first place. She could certainly walk all on her own, as she had never ceased to do it before. It still baf
Chapter 21: The Unexpected Surprise Guest Alpha Roland's POV: "Well, I was going over the monthly report of all the supplies and inventory," I started out by saying, composing my next thought. "You know the one where we have to gather anything needed so we can make it through the next month. That was when I happened to notice the number of supplies for the month went down since the end of the previous month." "Could it possibly mean the flux in numbers was just from a missed count on what was counted?" He asked, trying to think of an explanation. "You know, to think about it, you might recall numbers in the shorter months would be different. So maybe that would help to explain why some of the numbers might be off." I thought about what he said but it wasn't supposed to be a shorter month till the end of our current month. The previous month was not all that short but regular in the number of days. And if that was the case, then the number should be up, not down in a shorter month,
Chapter 22: When Can I Return Home? Maisie's POV: There it is again. I know I'm hearing that strange noise again, but I'm not sure what it is. I know it is coming from that strange box beside me, but what exactly does it mean? When I wake up, I'll have to try and keep quiet. I have not been punished yet and I am not sure when that is going to happen again. But I have to remember it can happen at any time. Am I still in the same place? The place I was before I woke up? I was trying to figure out a lot of things while still being confused. One question, for example, is why was the big scary man here earlier? I know it was Him because I remember hearing that same growl back when I was in the presence of Master. I remember hearing Him then, and then I heard it the last time I was awake. I heard Him growl when that woman touched me. Why? Why did He growl when she touched me? What did that mean? Was no one allowed to touch me other than Him? Was I not supposed to be punished by anyone els
Chapter 23: Never Allowed Personal PossessionsMaisie's POV:My Mother would take away anything I had that someone else liked or wanted. She once gave me nice fluffy socks. Well, they were really old but new to me. Then the next day, she came back by and took them away, giving them to my sister who liked them more than I did. She told my mother she deserved them more than I did. Anytime I recall getting anything, someone else wanted it more, so it got taken away from me. I never got to keep anything very long, even when it was given to me first. Well, I am not going to get used to this and then someone else takes it from me.I turned back to watch Him as He moved to grab the item I tossed away and again placed it on my stomach. I turned my head away quickly as I realized I had a tear fall from my eye at that moment He gave it back to me. I tried to reach up to wipe it away. However, when I reached for the tear, He reached for my wrist and grabbed it, stopping me from moving. No! He saw
Chapter 24: Where Can I Hide? Maisie's POV: Well, that was a big mistake. I was in a whole lot of pain and there was nothing I could do about it. I started to rub both of my knees as they were in a lot of pain. I did not realize it was that far to reach the floor. Well, that was on top of the fact that I found out I could not stand up on my own two feet. I needed to get away as quickly as I could. I looked at the wire coming from my arm and followed it to a small box. I also noticed another wire coming from something covering my face. I pulled on it and it came off fairly easy. It only covered part of my face. It was strange in color when I held it in my hands. It had strings hanging from it and even had air that came out of the hose that went over my nose. What was this for?! I dropped it as I looked at what the wired box was sitting on. There was a metal pole going all the way through the strange box. When I followed the metal pole back to the floor, I noticed there were several r
Chapter 25: No Place To Hide! Maisie's POV: In my room at home, I only had a simple sheet on my pad of a bed to cover myself up with at night. It was old and had a lot of holes in it. At night, it got really cold, but it was what I knew was mine as no one else wanted it. I was not allowed to have anything nice, no matter what it was. Even though I was sad most of the time, I still had a sheet to cover up with and a thin, plain pad to sleep on. Then during the day, I only had to worry about one outfit to leave my room to do my chores in. When the day was over, I would wash in the river if I got dirty and then do it again the next day, over and over again. That was my life, plain and simple. When I heard a notice, I leaned over just a bit so I could get a look under the hanging blanket. I noticed there was a set of feet right on the other side. I placed my hand over my mouth so I didn't make a sound as I sat up once more, waiting on them to leave and not come back. I felt better when
Chapter 26: The Tour Shall ContinueSentinel Trevor's POV:I was pleased with the reactions from our newcomers so far on this wondrous tour. However, I did wonder how they would take to their injection from the syringe gun which held the special capsule they would soon be injected with. It was a pretty impressive moment actually. The sound of it, when the capsule entered the skin, was nothing like any other regular ole' bolt gun. I looked over at one of the Sentinels standing by Mr. Stocky. They took that as their cue to maneuver his shirt down. It was obvious as he didn't want this to happen. I knew that as he tried to struggle against his restraints, but it was no use. They held him from five different points which made his struggle pointless. I even smirked as I chuckled when he did that."Why do I have to go first?" He scoffed as he asked, continuing to struggle, which was obviously no use."Well, I appreciate the question, however,..." I said with a bit of a pause. "Usually I woul
