Wanted: Matchmaker for the Alpha

Chapter 16: Self-Pity

Gwy's POV

We were silent the whole time when we returned to the Packhouse. I tried my best not to look at him or show interest at that point.

I'm still seething in anger for how much Devon made me look stupid. I also blocked Grace for the meantime. I can't help but take grudge on her. How could she leave me there when I was asking her to help me?

I was eager to move away from Devon's excessive teasing. But I failed miserably. I hated myself for that.

When we finally arrived, I was about to get out of thr car but the door won't push open. I tried several times but to no avail. That's when I turned to him.

Devon was looking out the window, silent and unmoving. He locked the car on purpose. He was waiting for a right moment, I could guess. That sight only gave me more annoyance than whatnot.

I sighed in defeat and was the first one to open my mouth to speak. "Open the door. I'll wash up and rest..."

"Not yet, priestess."

"Stop calling me priestess. You've already ruined me anyway. Now, please open this goddamn door!" I raised my voice a little. Trying to regain my composure, I breathed deeply to relax.

"You should know by now that I don't give a f**k about your position as a priestess. And I'm dead serious about what I said, Gwy. You're already mine. That means you won't be coming back to your old self. Not anymore. Got that?"

Tears started to brim down my cheeks. I can't take it anymore. It's hurting to see this lunatic guy degrade my position as a shaman. And most importantly, he doesn't respect me as a woman. And just like in history, these werewolves in authority still hated witches. I could feel how much hatred he possessed towards me.

"You could've just killed me then..." I said in a low voice, almost a whisper. It was hurting my chest to say those words. I love my life, for crying out loud! But what could it mean to live a life full of disrespect and lies? I won't last a day trying to live up to that.

"You can't die unless I tell you so, Gwy. That's how you will live with me."

I bashed my head laughing wryly. "Yeah. Totally forgot about that. Fine, so when will you consummate this fake union? I don't think you're just going to kill time and spare me. So, when?" I asked as though it was just a casual thing to say to my kidnapper.

"You just wait. That's what I'm telling you to do. After you give me my heir, you have my word and I'll set you free."

I looked at him, confused. It's very uncharacter of him to tell me these things. Why would he spare me anymore days before doing it with me? What's holding him back?

"Liar."

"Trust my words. I never lied to you once."

"I know you're lying. You won't make me see daylight after that. For sure."

"What makes you think that way?"

"Because that's how you treat witches like me. You hate me," I said matter-of-factly.

Devon suddenly leaned toward me. He trapped me in his arms and looked at me in the eye. "You're putting words into my mouth, Gwy. That's not so nice." He gave me a warning look.

I smirked at him. "Oh, do you want to do it here, instead? Why don't we make you a pup already?" I started making my finger travel down to his neck and to his hard chest.

"Don't worry, Gwy. I'll f**k you real good soon. But tonight, you're just going to get punished."

"That's not fair! I didn't do anything to you."

"Yes, you did, Gwyneth Hathaway. You're making me have a hard-on..." Suddenly his hand guided my hand down to his bulging pants. "I told you, not today."

"And why not?" I blushed while feeling his hard erect growing inside his pants.

"Tonight is not a good date to make pups. Don't you know that?"

I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion. "Celtic Witches beliefs?"

He shrugged. "Maybe. It's how it works in Black Dew Pack, so we have to respect that."

"Let's go back to my topic. So, meaning you asked a Celtic Witch to help you about the calendar? That means you've hired someone to make me weak..."

He smirked. "Clever woman. You got that right. I did. And I know you can feel it, too."

I sighed. Devon has finally admitted to confiding to a Celtic Witch. Which means this barrier that was surrounding Black Dew Pack was made by another witch. I have to find her before he rips me off to pieces.

After that nonsense talk with Devon, finally he let me out of the car. I showered and ignored him the whole night. After that, I got to the bed and tried to sleep.

Suddenly, a knock came on my door. The door opens and saw Devon on his comfortable silk pajamas while showing his hard muscles all over his torso and biceps.

I widened my eyes. "W-what are you doing here?" I got up, confused.

"I'll sleep here."

"What?! Devon, spare me this night, will you?"

"Don't cross the line, Gwy. I'm not talking about séx. I'm just here to sleep." He suddenly jumped to my bed and lay on the other side, unminding my presence.

I scoffed. "I forgot that this is your property. Fine! Sleep tight. Don't let the bed bugs bite!" I rolled my eyes and laid back on the other side of the bed. I shook the blanket and stomped my feet to make him feel my protest.

I hate this guy! His ambiguity makes it hard for me to take a pace. Not that I was anticipating much of him finally touching me, but because I was starting to hate myself for reacting to his kisses, to his subtle teasing. I don't know how to deal with this.

I began drifting to sleep. Suddenly, I felt something warm touching my neck. It gradually spread throughout my body like fire. A very good fire that I wanted so bad. I wasn't sure if a moan escaped my mouth.

Then, I saw a glimpse of something on top of me. A huge shadow.

"Gwyneth..." it whispered. Its voice was ethereal. I've never heard of this voice before. It almost sounded like it came from the ground beneath me.

What's happening? Is this some kind of dream?

"W-who are you?"

"No one should touch you like this. You're only mine..." it whispered.

Suddenly, I shuddered, writhing in pain through my body. It was like thousands of needles pierced through me. I couldn't even breathe.

"N-no... Please..."

"You're mine!" The voice got louder it almost sounded like thunder and earthquake.

After that, it all went black.
