Forbidden Affairs With My Uncle

Ch 3: Saw his ruthless side

•• ABIGAIL ••

"Do not twist my question. I mean, are you telling everyone that I'm your uncle and exploiting them, huh?" He repeated, his voice sounded like a threatening growl. "I remember warning you about it! Still you went ahead and stomped over my warning!"

'Yes, I did. So that you could expel me immediately. I can't keep lying to them for forever... They're Alphas who have a heightened sense of detecting omega's pheromones. Today or tomorrow, I'll be caught and publicly shamed...'

"What? Why are you smiling instead of answering me?" He scolded, rising from his seat. "Do you find this amusing? Aren't you worried about getting expelled from here and receiving scoldings from your grandfather?"

"That's not something you should worry about, Uncle. I have my ways to convince grandfather," I replied, unable to contain the happiness.

Soon, I'll be out of this suffocating place. Well that's what I thought but uncle Dominick had other plans. He made me run around the training grounds ten times for four hours straight.

"Please... I'm sorry," I cried, collapsing on the pitch of the running track. "I can't move my legs anymore... I'm thirsty... I want to go home..."

"Another two rounds," he added mercilessly.

I looked at him and only wished for one thing; if someday I get a chance to stab him to death, I'll gladly do that.

"Run. If you keep sitting there, wasting my time, I'll have you run another ten rounds until next morning," he thundered, making my jaws clench.

I was finally realising why this man is rumoured for being ruthless. No way he can't see I'm sweating and panting for air.

My fingers dug into the pitch as I suppressed my overwhelming rage. I had to return to my dormitory room because it's getting dark. I have to take the third dose of suppressant pills before my pheromones act out of control.

Gathering my strength, I stood up on my feet and forced myself to run a few seconds before collapsing on the running track.

"What are you doing? Get up and f*****g run!" I heard that heartless man's growls but remained unfazed, pretending to be fainted.

"Are you for real?" He groaned in irritation, "I'll count till three. If you keep acting stupid, I'll leave you here for the night. 3...2...1....0...!"

"f**k, what kind of Alpha she's? She can't even run a few rounds! Weakling!" He kept cursing as he approached towards me, crushing the dry grass underneath his boots.

"Hey, get up," he poked my back with his boot's sole, I was having hard time controlling myself from punching his face.

"Did she faint for real?" He talked to himself and finally stopped poking my back.

Now I wanted him gone, so that I could return to my— ACK.

He grasped my hand and like a sack of potatoes he tossed me over his broad shoulder, his hard collar bone pressing against my stomach. I opened my eyes as he took me inside, my hair falling over my face while my arms hung freely like a corpse.

"Ahh...ugh...haa..."

"I want you to stop moving your body no matter how uncomfortable you are. And for the love for Goddess, stop moaning," he grunted, tightening his grasp around my waist.

"I'm not doing it intentionally... Ouch, you are making me feel nauseous," I utter, covering my mouth with my hands. "Can you walk a bit slowly?"

"Of course—I can't walk slowly," he said, stressing his words, "I didn't agree to babysit you. That oldman is unnecessarily giving me trouble!"

There once again I was told that I was nothing but a burden on him. I sighed and closed my eyes, it hurts to hear everyone complaining about how useless I'm.

He arrived at the girl's dormitory building, carrying me on his shoulder. Embarrassing! Not for me but for him.

Ophelia gasped in shock, "Lord, what happened to Miss Abigail? Is she alright?"

"She's completely fine. Just pretending to be sick. Do not wake her up for tomorrow's classes," he coldly said, showing no concern for me.

I wonder why my mother assured me that my uncle will take care of me. It's more like uncle will do everything in his power to give me a f*****g hard time.

Next morning, I remained in my bed. My legs were numb from all the excessive running I did yesterday. The painkillers were doing nothing to ease my pain, now my head was spinning in circles as well.

During the evening, I heard girls whispering near my room's door. I tried to convince myself not to get tempted by the gossipings— yeah, I failed miserably and unwillingly walked close to my door, quietly eavesdropping on their conversation.

"Tonight is Blood Moon Night," one of the girls chuckled, and my eyelashes batted curiously. "Should we sneak out of the Academy premise tonight and have some fun with young omega males?"

"Girl, how? This is Rogue City!" Another girl argued.

"Why? We are Alphas, why should we fear damn rogues?"

"Sheesh!" The girl gritted her teeth before clarifying her words. "We should not wander in the Rogue City. I have heard omega males of this city deliberately seduce Alpha females to climb the social ladder!"

"Nonsense! Why would we take rogues as our Mate? The least we can do is give them some money," the girl replied, and others laughed, agreeing with her suggestions.

"What about Abigail? Should we take her with us?" One of them asked.

"Are you mad? She's the niece of Lord Dominick. What if she complains to him and get all of us expelled from the academy?" Others scolded that girl and she nodded immediately.

"Yes, you are right. We can't trust her."

Soon their voices faded away as they walked out of the dormitory. I stepped back from the door and sat down near my window, my eyes gazing at the beautiful blood-red moon.

Shame! If I were in the pack tonight, I would have accompanied young wolves of my pack to the coming-of-age party.

It's a very special night, especially for Omegas— their mates, be it Alpha or Beta, mark them as theirs and vow to protect them forever.

I was excited for this night since the first time I discovered I was omega. If I'd have found my Alpha, and got marked by him; I wouldn't have to conceal my omega pheromones and pretend to be Alpha.

Honestly, those suppressant pills have side-effects. I may lose my eyesight someday if I keep taking them for years. And I fear, someday my parents will find out I'm not Alpha but a dominant Omega with very strong pheromones.

"Why is my life so difficult?" I sighed deeply, my dreams shattering before me. "I also want to be marked by an Alpha. I, too, desire for his love and care. I'm tired of pretending... I want to live as who I'm..."

The night darkened, so my life. I got up, the instinct of finding a mate made me wander in the dimly lit hallways of the Academy. I don't know why I was hoping for some young Alpha to mark me as his and take me away; far away from my everyone.

I know that's impossible — because I already took the third dose of suppressant pills tonight. Nobody can even get my scent...

"An Omega," I heard a deep growl of man from behind. My body froze, my eyes widening in shock.

'H-How can he recognise my pheromones? I did take the pills— wait up! Did I actually take the last doze?' My hands slapped on my open mouth. 'Why can't I remember? What should I do? Is this the will of the Moon goddess...'

'Am I finally getting my Alpha Mate?' My heart pounded in my chest as I slowly turned back, stroking my lingering hair strands behind my right ear.

"Yes... Alpha," I used my very feminine voice to call him, my cheeks turning red in anticipation. "I... I was waiting for— Uncle?" My face turned pale when I saw the man standing before me.
