The Alpha's Immortal Mate

BLOOD BANK

***ELARA'S POV***

“Why did you do it? Why did you put your life on the line for me?” I ask Celeste as I watch her inject the needle into my hand. It sting a bit but it's better Celeste than anyone else from this hell hole. She's the only one who looks at me with a soft gaze, who speaks to me like a normal human being and not make me feel like someone's desert. She saved me twice and I decided to trust her, she might be my ticket to freedom.

Celeste glance at me shortly before returning her attention to the blood bag. I would have struggled if it's someone else but she assured me I will be fine and she won't drain much blood from me. Now Kian has turned me into a blood bank for some reason which no one will tell me. I feel like a lab rat already but with Celeste beside me, I'm a bit hopeful.

“You still don't believe you're special, right?” She ask and I shake my head negatively.

“There is really nothing special about me and you're going to die in vain.” I reply with a frown but Celeste let out a soft chuckle.

“I'm not as dumb as I look child. Kian would never kill me, at least not in this lifetime.”

“You have so much fate in that monster-”

“He is not a monster Elara.” Celeste cut me off. “Just like you, he has gone through hell and that's why he is the way he is.” Celeste tries to convince me but no manner of explanation will change how I feel about Kian, how I see him and who he really is. A beast, the devil reincarnated, that's what he is to me, nothing more, nothing less.

“How long will I be here for?” I ask instead, changing the subject since I'm not interested in talking about Kian.

“As long as it takes.” Celeste reply and I take in my bottom lip. I so badly want to ask why my blood is being extracted but I know she won't give me an answer, because even though she's nice to me, it doesn't change the fact that she serves Kian and he ordered everyone not to say anything to me.

“It's my blood, I deserve to know what it's being used for.” I state but Celeste gives me no answer, as expected.

“Rest now child, you'll feel very weak after this but don't worry, you'll be given food and water to replenish your strength.” She says before leaving the room. At least they gave me a bed this time around, I am still uncomfortable but compared to when I lay on the cold ground, I would chose this comfort.

The door opens shortly after Celeste leaves and a slender lady walks in. I couldn't tell if I have seen her before but I could tell she despise me like the others. Celeste isn't here to protect me anymore so I would try my best not to spit this woman to avoid any further infliction of pain.

“How does it feel to be useful?” She ask, her gaze boring into mine like she was searching for something in me. She emanates a negative and dark aura just like Kian, only that of Kian is stronger, which means she isn't good news but i won't give her the satisfaction of seeing me intimidated.

“What do you want?” I asked boldly.

She clicked her tongue, walking closer until she stood right beside me. Suddenly, her hand came crashing down on my cheek, almost sending me off the bed. It burned so much that I couldn't stop my tears from coming out.

“You dare use that tone on me you wench?!” She thundered. I couldn't see clearly now as my vision had been blurred with tears but before she could make another move, the door opens and someone else walks in.

“Beta Phoenix, Celeste wants to see you.” I hear a masculine voice address the woman. It seems she's also in a high rank like Alpha Kian for her to be addressed with so much respect, I should avoid getting on her nerves next time. She leaves the room as quickly as she entered and I shut my eyes, hoping this would be over by the time I wake up.

I open my eyes the moment I felt a hand on me. I could barely feel my body at this point and I wondered how long I had slept for. The blood bag was filled with my blood and the needle had been removed. Two men stood before me, one holding the blood bag and the other holding my hand.

“Take the bag to the Alpha, I'll join you soon.” The one holding my hand instructed. I feel uneasy with the idea of being alone with him, something in his eyes told me he isn't going to stand there when the other leaves.

“Why can't we just leave together? The Alpha instructed us to make sure the-”

“Take the damn bag away like I ordered!” He thundered but the other was reluctant to leave. It seems he knows what is going to happen once he leaves and he doesn't want that. He looked at me with pity in his eyes and I became weary of what would happen as well. Just like Celeste said, I feel very weak at the moment and won't be able to defend myself if this man tries to hurt me.

“She's too young for that, Conrie.” The man with the bag said but the other addressed as Conrie, shakes his head, his gaze scrutinizing my body in a lustful way. It finally dawned on me what he intends to do with me.

“Don't be shameless and let me be! I won't let you touch me!” I try to sound brave whereas my body gave away my fear.

“You are in no position to give me orders, just stay quiet and I'll make it worth your while.” He says with a disgusting smirk and begins to caress my cheek. I feel like spiders are crawling all over my body, as I'm disgusted by his touch and I want to break his fingers so bad.

“Conrie just stop, the Alpha won't be happy-”

“The Alpha only needs her blood, not her body. I might as well have a go at it.” Conrie says and almost immediately, he rips off the end of my sleeping gown which i had on since the day my parents were murdered. I widen my eyes as my tears trickle down my face. He began running his hand from my leg, upwards, reaching my thighs and I felt so dirty having his hand on me. His touch is repulsive and I force myself to hit his hand off but that only makes things worse.

He angrily yank at my hair, pulling me off the bed and I fall heavily on the cold ground.

“I told you to behave you human w***e!” He thundered, striking me on the head which sent my face kissing the hard floor. Blood sipped out from my noise and my vision started to blur, which was a good thing, It'd be better if I loose consciousness, that way I won't feel his disgusting hands on me. He made to strike me again and I instinctively shut my eyes, raising my hands up to block my face but instead of a blow, something wet splashed on me. I slowly open my eyes to see blood on my hands and Conrie's head falling off his body, I froze, my eyes wide and my breathing uneven. The face behind the now headless body is even more frightening and I wished so badly to be swallowed up by the ground.

“Who gave you the right to touch her?!” Alpha Kian's angry voice echoed in the room.
