Alondra Elisa Ramos - POV
Everything around me was dark while I was free-falling, the air around me was making me float while gravity pulled me down at a fast rate. I know that it is not going to be a smooth landing, so I closed my eyes tight and counted down the seconds before I will reach the ground again. The impact was hard, but due to the adrenaline rush, my body was numb. Rocks formed bedding at the bottom of the cliff, and I hit my head hard and lost consciousness, thinking that I might finally get to meet my parents again.
The sound of water was a lullaby to me, while the bright sunlight was disturbing my sleep. I groaned and opened my eyes to see that I was lying on the grass near a river. I looked around my surrounding, but I didn't know how I ended up there. My head was pounding like a drum. “hey! Who are you?.” I heard a male voice, and I looked in the direction of the forest, to see a man, probably in his late forties, running in my direction. When he stopped in front of me, I stared at him confused, he had a long scar starting from his left eyebrow and ending just above his lips, and he was a very muscular man. “Where am I?”I asked him.
“You seriously don't remember anything?” the man asked me, and I meekly shook my head. A few minutes passed by in silence before a smile broke out on his lips. “You are an omega, and your alpha sold you to me. But, unfortunately, you ran away.” this send a shiver down my spine, and my eyes widened in shock, but in the bottom of my heart, something was telling me that he was lying. I tried to get up from the place and run away, but the guy took a firm grip on my shirt and pulled me. “Let's get going now,” he said and pulled me in the direction of the forest, while I struggled in his arms, he slapped me hard across the cheek before he continued to drag me.
“You better come with me without making a fuss. If not, I will leave you here in this forest to starve to death or be eaten by an animal.” the man threatened, and my entire body became cold. I know that what he is saying is true, so I quietly walked with him. I will think about an escape plan once we are out of this forest, that way I can get some help somewhere.
We soon exited the forest, and he pushed me to walk toward a white Honda car that was parked at the curb. The car looked like it had seen better days, and another man was standing near the passenger seat with his back facing us.
“Nicolas! Start the car, we are leaving!” the man growled, which made the guy turn around to face us, and he had a puzzled look on his face when he saw me.
“Where did you find this chick, dad?” Nicolas asked while his scrunching glance looked at me from head to toe, and I tried to hide from him.
“Doesn’t matter at the moment. Start the car, we are going home.” his dad ordered and opened the back seat and pushed me in, and he soon took a seat next to me. Soon Nicolas walked around and got into the driver seat and started the car, and drove, the car smelled like sweat and cigarettes which made me gag, but I made sure to not make any noise since I didn't want to get slapped again. We were on a car journey for more than an hour when we finally came to a stop in front of a rundown house. It was a two-story house with white paint peeling from its wall.
“Let's get moving!” the man roughly pulled me out of the car using my hand and dragged me into the house. I was too weak to fight him, so I just followed him upstairs, where he locked me in a room, that had no windows, and it was pitch dark with only a small bed in the corner. “You will be staying here,” he said, and then locked the room and left.
I curled myself on the bed and closed my eyes, thinking of a way to escape. But for me to escape, I would need my stamina, so I willed myself to get some sleep. My eyes opened wide to the sound of the lock clicking, and I quickly got up from the bed and looked toward the door. The handle rattled a few times before the door opened, and Nicolas entered the room with a menacing smile on his face. I propelled backward, my heart was beating at an insane pace, and my palms started to sweat.
“Oh, don't be afraid of me, darling. I came here to have some quality time with you,” he said in a sickly sweet voice.
“Please, leave me alone.” I stammered, but he only advanced.
“Be a good girl, and obey my orders,” he said, and he gripped my hand in his, I screamed for help, slapped him, and kicked him, but he only got more violent. When he was about to tear my dress, someone pulled him away from me and slammed him to the wall.
“Dad!” Nicolas yelled, and his father slapped him hard across his cheek.
“Don't you dare ruin my business, Nicolas! Alpha Alvarez is looking for a surrogate, and she looks so beautiful, I have a feeling that I can sell her off to him for the highest price,” he said, looking at me.
“So, f**k off from here!”
