Alpha King's Caged Mate
The Alpha Kingās hand was raised, ready to give the command.
āPlease!ā I begged. āPlease donāt do this! Take me instead! Please, take me instead!ā
He didnāt seem to hear me.
The executioner lifted his broadsword. Scarlet blood flooded the surrounding earth immediately.
I roared and screamed, a horrible sound echoing through the air.
Cole, with cruel indifference, stepped down from the throne and smirked.
āDid you enjoy what you saw, Eva?ā he asked. āDid you enjoy seeing their heads roll? Witnessing what happens to filthy traitors?ā
āYouāre a f**king monster,ā I growled, āF**k you! I hate you!!! Youād rot-ā
He interrupted my curses, cupping my face as he laughed maliciously.
āEven though you hate me, you belong to me now,ā he murmured, his voice both sensual and cruel. āYou bear my Mark, Eva. Thereās be no escaping. No matter how far you run, Iāll always find you. Iāll always take you.ā
He pressed his fingers against the side of my neck, the sensation of the bond mark strong and undeniable.
Horror and disgust overwhelmed me. He was right.
I was his. I was caged.
